Pleurisy, Silicon Head ) op gitaar- Luciano Sirigu (o.a. Silicon Head , Shinigami) op zang & bas- En jawel… George Oosthoek (o.a. Orphanage, MaYan, Shinigami ) achter de drumkit. Nee, geen grunts dit keer! Of toch ? George is immers DE stem in onze openings jingle van het programma.De naam Hee Hee Shamone is een knipoog naar Michael Jackson. Hoe dat precies zit? Dat hoor je natuurlijk in de show en we duiken in het verleden en heden van de band en de bandleden door de uiterst interessante vragen van onze alleskunner Ernst.Muzikaal? ALLES mag bij deze band. Hardcore, funk, sludge, thrash, doom, disco – je hoort het allemaal in een set. Echt. Alles. En ja, het werkt.Het was een avond vol lol, bizarre verhalen, muziekprimeurs en een compleet ontsporende concertagenda – misschien wel de meest hilarische tot nu toe van onze concert specialist Sidney.Special guest luisteraar Dimitrios Zorba dook op met een fles ouzo én bracht onze nieuwste rubriek mee: de BALLENBAK – omdat het Rad van Rutger nu wel letterlijk uit elkaar valt.Verder: metalprimeurs, zelfs in het galopje van Rick, die vaak uitwiijkt naar Metal uit de 80's maar nu iets van 2025 meeneemt wat zelfs nog uit moet komen. Okay de band komt wel oorspronkelijk uit 1982 dat dan weer wel En ALLE klassiekers van de show komen voorbij waaronder ook de leuke verhalen horend bij de fotos. En dat waren er best wat zoals je ziet.Wij van WC-eend adviseren je te luisteren naar deze uitzending van De Loodzware Jongens!

Send us a textThe global movement to transition children from orphanages to families is gaining momentum, but significant challenges remain. In this thought-provoking episode, David Titus Moussa hosts a conversation with Stephen Usembe, a care leaver and founder of Kenya Society of Care Leavers, and Phil Aspergren, executive director of Casa Viva in Costa Rica, as they unpack key insights from the recent Rising Tide Conference.Stephen shares his unique perspective as someone who grew up in institutional care, emphasizing the critical need for research and data to drive meaningful policy change. "When we know better, we have a responsibility to do better," he reminds us, highlighting how institutions isolate while families embrace. The experts discuss how poverty, misguided funding models, and entrenched attitudes continue to separate vulnerable children from families that could care for them with proper support.Phil recounts a powerful story of transformation: when 26 adolescents in a well-run children's home were asked what they wanted most, every single one answered, "I want to live in a family." This led to a complete transition from institutional care to family placements for all 26 youth—proving that change is possible even in challenging circumstances. He challenges listeners who support orphanages not to withdraw funding, but instead to use their influence to ask important questions and encourage transition toward family-based solutions.The conversation explores practical strategies for redire________Travel on International Mission, meet local leadership and work alongside them.

Author Francine Falk-Allen discusses her new book, A Wolff in the Family. This novel has its origins in a Francine's own family history. About twenty years ago, she learned a family secret that very few of her living relatives knew. She discovered that the five youngest of her mother's eleven siblings were sent to an orphanage by her grandfather. It was Francine's mother, the eldest of the siblings, who kept the siblings in touch with each other through the years. In A Wolff in the Family, Francine explores the family's hardships during the 1920s and 30s and the circumstances that would lead a father to place his own children in an orphanage, as well as the effects that decision had on the rest of the family.

Experience the thrill of the unknown with the 222 Paranormal Podcast today! Gore Orphanage info         The real name of the Orphanage was the Light of Hope (also referred to as the Light and Hope). It was built by the Reverend John A. Sprunger and his wife in 1903 after their orphanage located in Bern, Indiana was destroyed by fire in 1899. Three orphan girls were reported to have died in that fire. The name Gore Orphanage was adopted by young thrill seekers over the years because it apparently fired their collective imaginations of murder and mayhem at Sprunger's home for orphans. The belief is/was that the word "gore" was referring to that of a bloody wound. Thus it amplified, and seemed to substantiate, the ever evolving horror story about the place. But in fact the word actually referred to a topographical description of the land running the length of the road in Lorain County, Ohio where it is located. In brief, it was simply a triangular piece of land (hence the name "gore"). Prior to the orphanage being established along the road it was called Gore Road. The Collinwood Fire On 4 March 1908, a tragedy occurred that prompted changes in school safety across the United States. About nine o'clock in the morning on March 4, 1908, nine-year-old Niles Thompson jumped out of a window at Lakeview Elementary to escape a fire that had started in the basement of his school. Nearly two hundred children who had also been lucky enough to escape watched as flames engulfed the Collinwood school. Niles frantically ran among his schoolmates, searching for his little brother, Thomas. Once Niles realized his brother was not one of the safe children, he ran back into the school to save Thomas. Neither of the two Thompson boys walked out of their school again. Niles and Thomas Thompson were among the 172 children and two teachers who were trapped inside the school and died in the fire. Nineteen of these children could not be identified. That weekend, the entire Collinwood community mourned for those lost. According to Cleveland's Plain Dealer, "The village seemed to be one vast procession of hearses and carriages. . . . Scarcely did one funeral carriage pass before another came into sight wending its way with its sorrowful burden to the burying grounds. . . . Those who had no dead to mourn stood on the streets watching the grim procession as they passed. There was scarcely a dry eye in Collinwood." The following Monday, memorial and funeral services were held at Lake View Cemetery for all the victims of the Collinwood school fire. Businesses in the Collinwood neighborhood were closed for the day out of respect for the dead and their families. Lakeview Elementary children that survived served as pallbearers and other Cleveland school children made memorials in the shape of flowers.

On today's program, The King's College in New York City shut its doors in 2023 under a mountain of debt—now, it's launching a ‘go-forward plan' in an effort to reopen. We'll have details. And, a ministry in the U-K is urging Christians to stop giving to orphanages…and instead give to organizations that focus on family-based care.

Plus, a NC church is shutting its doors…and is leveraging an IRS mandate to donate its assets to more than 75 charities. But first…a group of pregnancy resource centers in New Jersey is asking the Supreme Court to consider its case in protecting donor information. First Choice Women's Resource Centers, has asked the U.S. Supreme Court to consider its case about the state asking it to disclose information about its donors.

But in the dark, the sadness can turn to terror as a whole different crowd of children make themselves known… the ghosts of those who died there.

We revisit our episode with Gregory Maguire.******"That's really all we are obliged to do for those we call our enemies. We are obliged to see them as humans, and then we behave the way we will. We are obliged not to consider them as less than human because that way, all hell breaks loose. - Gregory MaguireGregory Maguire expresses himself with extreme precision. While many of us may grasp for words to communicate a specific emotion or to describe a series of events, Gregory seemingly has words and turns of phrase on command. What a delight it is to listen to Gregory talk about his journey, his writing, and his thoughts on a wide variety of topics. Close to Gregory's heart is the belief that everyone has a backstory, a context—even our enemies. And no matter how difficult the task may seem, he believes it is our duty to understand that story and find it within ourselves to empathize with them—not to excuse them but to simply see them as humans.Gregory has built his career around telling the stories of antiheroes, most notably through the reimaginings of classic fairytales in novels such as "Wicked," "Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister," and "Mirror Mirror." That ability to find empathy and a curiosity to understand even the most seemingly undeserving characters emerges in his other children's and young adult books and is deeply rooted in experiences from Gregory's early life.In this episode, Gregory shares those early life experiences (which can honestly be described as “Dickensian”) and how his relationships with his father and siblings have impacted his writing and life choices. He tells us about his love of the “arresting strangeness” of literary worlds and how this sensation inspired him to become a writer. He also shares why he believes in the children's stories he writes, not always getting a “happily ever after.”***Connect with Jordan and The Reading Culture @thereadingculturepod and subscribe to our newsletter at thereadingculturepod.com/newsletter. ***In his reading challenge, Arresting Strangeness (a term coined by J.R.R.

Abby's back for this Spanish-language feature 

In this week's conversation, we had the absolute pleasure of speaking with  Carer and Head Manager of the Rhino Orphanage, Yolandé van der Merwe. We have been following the Rhino Orphanage since their foundation in 2012, so when we started this podcast they were immediately on our list!  The story of the Rhino Orphanage is one of great tragedy and great triumph.  It's a story of the moment you see a life hanging in the balance, and in an instant the course of your life changes.  This conversation is a testament to the power of love, dedication, and an unwavering commitment to the belief that we must help each other, humans and animals alike and that through action, time, and healing, we can all thrive and one day return to the life we once knew. Because of the Rhino Orphanage, baby rhinos are brought to a safe place and through the amazing veterinarian and carer teams, are given a second chance. It's a brutal transition when a baby rhino loses their mother to violence, and is often attacked themselves, but the Rhino team is there to nurture them back to health, both physically and mentally. The team at the Rhino Orphanage are the Heroes of our time.  They are the reason rhinos might have a chance. Deeply grateful for this conversation, and all that you do Yolandé! If you need a coffee or a sammie while you're busy with the babies, text us.  Lots of Love.

It's Wednesday, October 30th, A.D. 2024. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Adam McManus Nigerian Muslims beheaded 4 people including a Christian Open Doors UK reports that Muslim extremists beheaded four abducted individuals recently in northeast Nigeria. At least one of them was a Christian. The terrorists released a graphic video of the murders and are believed to be from Boko Haram. In the video, an armed terrorist said, “Wherever there is an infidel, we will go and find them out by ourselves and execute them.” John Samuel with Open Doors said, “Boko Haram extremists have clearly said time and time again that they are waging a jihad against people they call ‘infidels' – that is anyone who does not sign up to their extreme interpretation of Islam. Some of the people at the top of this list, then, are Christians who are clear targets because of their faith.” 60,000 Brits sign freedom of prayer petition Alliance Defending Freedom released a petition for freedom of prayer in the United Kingdom. this month. Already, nearly 60,000 people have signed it. Authorities in the U.K. recently convicted a Christian of violating censorship zones around abortion mills. Army veteran Adam Smith-Connor had simply prayed silently near an abortion mill! Alliance Defending Freedom sent the petition to U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer. It states, “Freedom of thought is our most basic and precious of rights -- and has long been recognized in British law and every major human rights document from the Universal Declaration of Human Rights onwards.” Proverbs 29:2 says, “When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; but when a wicked man rules, the people groan.” Kamala calls Trump a “petty tyrant,” likening him to King George III Last night, Vice President Kamala Harris made her campaign's closing argument in a speech at the Ellipse in the nation's capital, reports The Epoch Times. Her campaign claimed that 75,000 people were in attendance. The rally was located at a symbolic site for two reasons. First, it had a direct view of the White House. And secondly, it's the place where Trump delivered his speech on January 6, 2021, that preceded the Capitol breach. HARRIS: “Nearly 250 years ago, America was born when we wrested freedom from a petty tyrant. Across the generations, Americans have preserved that freedom, expanded it, and, in so doing, proved to the world that a government of, by, and for the people is strong and can endure. (cheers) “Those who came before us, the patriots at Normandy and Selma, Seneca Falls and Stonewall (cheers), on farmlands and factory floors, they did not struggle, sacrifice, and lay down their lives only to see us cede our fundamental freedoms. (cheers) “They didn't do that only to see us submit to the will of another petty tyrant.  (cheers) These United States of America, we are not a vessel for the schemes of wannabe dictators.” GOP Congressman: People are done with Kamala's fear mongering Appearing on The Angle with Laura Ingraham on Fox News, Republican Congressman Byron Donalds of Florida rejected the nasty tone, fear mongering, and unsupported accusations in the waning days that Kamala Harris has adopted. Listen. DONALDS: “They were joy and vibes three weeks ago. Now, everything is  ‘attack Donald Trump,'  ‘call him Hitler,'  ‘call his supporters fascists.' “We were at Madison Square Garden. Laura, it was great to see you there. It was a fantastic night. “You had people like myself, Vivek Ramaswamy, ‘Harry-O,' the founder of Death Row Records. We spoke at that rally. Do you think the Nazis would let two black guys and a guy of Hindu dissent speak at a rally? At one of theirs? Absolutely not! But that's all they have. “The constant fear mongering and gaslighting is enough. People are sick of it. They're done. They're done with Kamala Harris and they're done with this version of the Democrat Party.” Washington Post, L.A. Times, & USA Today don't endorse for president Breaking with recent practice, major news outlets are not endorsing a candidate in the upcoming presidential election. The Washington Post announced last Friday it is not making a presidential endorsement for the first time in 36 years.  The Los Angeles Times and USA Today also announced they will not be endorsing a candidate for president. In the wake of the decisions, top editors resigned and 200,000 left-leaning subscribers to the Washington Post cancelled their subscriptions.  Many conservatives have concluded that Jeff Bezos and Patrick Soon-Shiong, the billionaire owners of the Washington Post and the Los Angeles Times respectively, have concluded that Trump is likely to win the 2024 election and do not want to irritate him by endorsing Kamala Harris. How God spared a couple in Hurricane Helene Queen City News reports a North Carolina couple is giving thanks to God after surviving Hurricane Helene. Howard Ray and his wife, Lisa, thought they were about to die as flooding swamped their trailer in Yancey County. However, they were able to escape the trailer and use their couch as a flotation device. Eventually, they made their way to safety. HOWARD: “I don't understand. We shouldn't be alive. I mean, there's just no way. It's all God.” LISA: “Yeah, we shouldn't be alive, but God has a purpose.” REPORTER: “What do you think that purpose is?” LISA: “I'm not sure. I'm still asking questions.” HOWARD: “I think maybe what we're doing right now, maybe it gets out and shows people that there is a God.” Lisa had to be hospitalized for some cuts, and Howard, a lieutenant with the local volunteer fire department, returned to the area to help first responders. They both praised God for His protection.  Worldview listeners fully fund Pakistani orphanage well And finally, if you heard the newscast on Monday, you learned that a 200-foot-deep well of a Pakistani Christian orphanage, which housed 87 orphans, had become polluted with chemicals which tragically led to the deaths of two orphans. Toward the $15,000 cost of building a 500-foot-deep well which will deliver safe drinking water, Pastor Michael, the founder of the orphanage whom I have met personally, still needed to raise the final $4,185.  Thanks to several Worldview donors on Monday, the amount remaining was $3,110. And yesterday, Michele in Altha, Florida gave $100, a couple from San Antonio, Texas gave $150, a family in Lexington Park, Maryland gave $150,  a couple in Paw Paw, Michigan gave $500, a couple in Kailua Kona, Hawaii gave $500, a couple in Simpsonville, South Carolina gave $1,000, and Dick and Deborah in Wayland, Michigan -- along with their teenage sons Jonas and Jeremiah who contributed money from their dog-sitting business – gave $1,054.75. Those 7 donations add up to $3,454.75. That means we surpassed the goal by $344.75.  The additional money will go toward the $2,000 monthly budget which pays for the food, clothing, medical care, and Christian education of the 85 orphans. If you would like to help with that budget, send your tax-deductible donation made out to Rio Grande Valley Prayer Center, their sister organization here in America. The address is 3106 Harmony Lane, Mission, TX 78574.  In the memo, write: “Pakistani orphanage.” The prayer center will then wire your money to a nearby bank in Pakistan.  Please email me at Adam@TheWorldview.com to let me know how much you sent so I can offer one final report on Thursday's newscast. James 1:27 says, “Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Wednesday, October 30th, in the year of our Lord 2024. Subscribe by Amazon Music or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.

It's Monday, October 28th, A.D. 2024. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus 373 profess faith in Christ at Mississippi State Fair Earlier this month, nearly 200 volunteers with the Mississippi Baptist Convention Board shared Jesus Christ at the Mississippi State Fair. According to The Christian Post, Linda Burris said, “We made a record of 2,824 Gospel conversations with 373 of those praying to receive Christ.” Now that's some good news about the Good News! In Luke 15:7, Jesus said, "I tell you that in the same way there will be more joy in Heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent.” Michelle Obama urges men to vote for Kamala to ensure abortion At a Get Out the Vote rally in Michigan on Saturday, former First Lady Michelle Obama campaigned against Trump. She made the misguided claim that if men helped to elect Trump, they were putting the women in their lives in danger because of Trump's desire to protect babies in the womb. Listen. MICHELLE OBAMA: “To anyone out there thinking about sitting out this election or voting for Donald Trump or a third party candidate in protest because you're fed up, let me warn you.  (boos) Your rage does not exist in a vacuum. (cheers) If we don't get this election right, your wife, your daughter, your mother -- we as women -- will become collateral damage to your rage. (cheers, applause) “Are you as men prepared to look into the eyes of the women and children you love and tell them that you supported this assault on our safety?” Truth be told, according to the 197-page report entitled “Unsafe: How America's Abortion Industry Is Endangering Women,” having an abortion poses a dramatically greater medical risk than delivering a baby. Obama took credit for Trump's good economy On October 11th, former President Barack Obama campaigned for Kamala Harris in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He claimed that Trump had a good economy because he, Obama, gave him a good economy, reports Axios. OBAMA: “The reason some people think, ‘I remember that economy when [Trump] first came in being pretty good.' Yeah, it was pretty good because it was my economy! (cheers) It wasn't something he did.” GOP Congressman shows Trump's economy twice as good Republican Congressman Byron Donalds of Florida took issue with Obama's claim that Trump's good economy was really Obama's good economy. DONALDS: “I was working in finance during Barack Obama's administration. The economy under his last, especially the last five years, was growing at about 1% to 1.5% per year. At the time, President Obama was saying that, you know, this era of large economic growth is something of the past. Consistent economy meant one that barely grew. “So, when Donald Trump came in, he brought his tax cut policy in which he cut taxes across the board for everybody in our country, couple [with that] the fact that he did cut massive regulations. “Economic growth in the United States went from 1-1.5% under Barack Obama to 3-3.5% under Donald Trump. Wages, adjusted for inflation, increased for every subgroup of Americans. The wealth gap was closing. We were actually booming economically far more than we did under Barack Obama. “So, that's a cool statement he made on the stump, but it's not true.” Dr. James Dobson shares his presidential voting guide Click here to see it. Florida postal worker accused of dumping 1,000 pieces of mail, including political pieces A Florida postal worker has been accused of dumping more than 1,000 pieces of mail in a wooded lot in Orlando, including over 400 pieces of political mail and at least one election ballot, reports The Epoch Times. Ottis McCoy Jr., who was employed by Cummings Contract Delivery Service to deliver mail for the U.S. Postal Service, has been charged with stealing and discarding mail in violation of federal law, according to a criminal complaint filed on October 25th. Data from a GPS tracking device connected to the vehicle McCoy was driving indicated that McCoy had deviated from the route, prompting the manager to investigate.

For decades, Pastor Michael has spent his life planting 33 churches and an orphanage with 87 children in a country which is not only 96% Muslim, but downright hostile to Christianity. In fact, it is only by the hand of Providence that he, his wife, and three children are still alive. First, the Muslims burned down three consecutive homes of Pastor Michael. MICHAEL: “Because of my Christian faith and my activities with the Christian community, the Muslims, they do not like it. They burned out my home, and I moved from that home to another city, to another home, and it was burned again. “They came with the long, fire sticks. My family, when they heard the noise, they came out and they saw hundreds of people are attacking the house. So, thanks to God, that God saved our lives, but we lost three different houses.” As if that were not enough, Pakistani Muslims also kidnapped and tortured one of Michael's three children. MICHAEL: “Always the Christian leaders are under the threat. The children are always kidnapped. My son was kidnapped from the gym when he was exercising. A group of Muslim men, they kidnapped him and tortured him many days. When we found him after 16 days, he was half dead. He was not able to talk. He was under medical care for many days. Then he flew to Germany. He is still there.” Tragically, the well of the Christian orphanage has become polluted and two of the children have died. MICHAEL: “Unfortunately, two children, they went to the Lord because of the contaminated water. They had sickness, hepatitis and some stomach diseases. In that area, there is a drain going through, and that drain carries the disposal of chemicals.” For the moment, the 85 orphans have been placed in the homes of 30 different church families while Michael covers the cost of their food. After consulting with water experts, they discovered that they need to dig a well 500 feet deep for pure drinking water compared to the current contaminated well which is only 200 feet deep. MICHAEL: “Temporarily, they are living there. After a certain time, we will bring them back when we get clean water again.” The cost to dig a new well will be $15,000. So far, God has already provided $10,815.  Special thanks to the Blanco, Texas United Methodist Church which gave $5,000.  So, in order to completely pay for the new well for the Pakistani Christian orphanage, Pastor Michael still needs to raise $4,185. Join me and send an urgently needed, tax-deductible donation made out to Rio Grande Valley Prayer Center, their sister organization here in America. The address is 3106 Harmony Lane, Mission, TX 78574.  In the memo, write: “Pakistani orphanage well.” The prayer center will then wire your money to a nearby bank in Pakistan to help build that well. In light of the country's crippling 42% inflation rate, the sooner they receive the money, the better.  After you send your check, please take a moment to email me at Adam@TheWorldview.com, and I'll simply announce your first name, city and state so that we can celebrate together the completion of this life-saving project. Pastor Michael offered this prayer. MICHAEL: “Dear God, I pray that you would touch the heart of the listeners to give generously to help us build this new well in Pakistan for the 85 orphan children. Amen.” 1 John 3:17 says, “If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them, how can the love of God be in that person?” Close And that's The Worldview on this Monday, October 28th, in the year of our Lord 2024. Subscribe by Amazon Music or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.

This week's Misfit Entrepreneur is Ed Hajjim. Ed is a long-time Wall Street executive and entrepreneur with over 50 years of experience. Most people that hear his origin story are amazed that he ended up where he has. But, in reality, Ed has one of the best stories that is the truest testament to the American Dream and what is possible that I have ever heard. And I'm excited for him to share it today. But first, I mentioned 50 years' experience. Here is a little bit of Ed's pedigree… Ed has held senior management positions with the Capital Group, E.F. Hutton and Lehman Brothers before becoming chairman and CEO of Furman Selz. He was the co-chairman of ING Barings, Americas Region; chairman and CEO of ING Aeltus Group and ING Furman Selz Asset Management; and chairman and CEO of MLH Capital. Presently, he is chairman of High Vista, a Boston-based money management company. In 2008, after 20 years as a trustee of the University of Rochester, he began an eight-year tenure as chairman of the university's board. Upon assuming that office, he gave the school $30 million—the largest single donation in its history—to support scholarships and endow the Edmund A. Hajim School of Engineering and Applied Sciences. Through his Family Foundation, he has made generous donations to organizations that promote education, health care, arts, culture and conservation. Ed is the author of several books including, the Road Less Traveled: An Unlikely Journey from the Orphanage to the Boardroom. And I'm excited to squeeze as much wisdom as I can from him in our time together in this episode. To see the full show notes and Misfit 3 for this episode, go to www.MisfitEntrepreneur.com.
