My guest this week is Makayla Anderson, a young poet and musician in the Bulkley Valley in Northern BC. We discuss her writings about matters of faith and hope. She and her three sisters—Kalia, Mackenzie and Madison—perform her music and lead worship at various churches and local events. In August, 2023, they made a trip to share their music with Keith and Kristyn Getty and others at an event in Nashville. We talk about the challenges and disappointments that are part of the human condition and the importance of faith and we play a few short segments of her music (links to the lyrics can be found in the episode shownotes). Makayla can be reached at makaylalynn838@gmail.com Lyrics to the segments played on today's episode: (written and copyrighted by Makayla Anderson; reprinted here by permission) Heading Home (Hebrews 11-12) complete lyrics here:  https://docs.google.com/document/d/1c21-7R_4rwozxfTlE_1IRbcqmZqnsLfcrQfGC18Rk8I/edit Time would fail for me to tell of those through historyWho obtained promises, worked righteousness and lived in victoryThey followed the Master's call to lay down their livesAnd yet, to this very day, their stories still surviveFor they lived by faith, out of weakness were made strongYes they lived by faith and they formed a glorious throngThis world could not receive them for they were not its ownThey were victorious, broken pilgrims heading home . . . . . . . . . .

Jack Murphy Live Podcast Notes Key Takeaways Desire is why people want what they wantMimetic desire: relying on external references “to show us what is wantable”We are usually unaware of how much of our self-proclaimed individualism is sourced from thoughts and desires that are not our ownWe often fight because of our sameness, not because of our differencesConflict emerges when differences are eliminated; everyone begins to fight over the same thingsMimetic crisis: occurs when there is a loss of differenceWhen friend/enemy distinctions collapse, people try really hard to create differencesScapegoats are the reintroduction of difference, which inherently is the reintroduction of peace (as counterintuitive that sounds)“Humans have always relied on violence to drive out violence throughout human history” – Luke BurgisThe problem with data: “Data at its best can only represent the state of things right now…it just captures what people presently want” – Luke BurgisTruly good ideas aren't shaped by desire; good ideas shape desireAn enjoyable life comes down to ordering your desires wellYou must know the difference between your personal desires and the desires that simply have a great presentationPrioritize your “thick” desires (continue reading for more info)We should do away with the façade of desire and be honest with ourselves about what we want. Living out a meaningful life is not selfish.We are living in a world where it's harder than ever to express your true desiresListen to yourself more oftenRead the full notes @ podcastnotes.orgJack Murphy sits down with Luke Burgis, author of "Wanting: The Power of Mimetic Desire in Everyday Life" - an insightful book that draws on the work of French polymath René Girard to bring this hidden force to light and reveals how it shapes our lives and societies. Why do you want what you want? And how do we influence what other's want? Once you understand the power of memetic contagion, you'll see it everywhere. "A groundbreaking exploration of why we want what we want, and a toolkit for freeing ourselves from chasing unfulfilling desires. Gravity affects every aspect of our physical being, but there's a psychological force just as powerful―yet almost nobody has heard of it. It's responsible for bringing groups of people together and pulling them apart, making certain goals attractive to some and not to others, and fueling cycles of anxiety and conflict. In Wanting, Luke Burgis draws on the work of French polymath René Girard to bring this hidden force to light and reveals how it shapes our lives and societies. According to Girard, humans don't desire anything independently. Human desire is mimetic―we imitate what other people want. This affects the way we choose partners, friends, careers, clothes, and vacation destinations. Mimetic desire is responsible for the formation of our very identities. It explains the enduring relevancy of Shakespeare's plays, why Peter Thiel decided to be the first investor in Facebook, and why our world is growing more divided as it becomes more connected. Wanting also shows that conflict does not arise because of our differences―it comes from our sameness. Because we learn to want what other people want, we often end up competing for the same things. Ignoring our large similarities, we cling to our perceived differences." https://www.amazon.com/Wanting-Power-Mimetic-Desire-Everyday/dp/1250262488 Jack Murphy's Book, "Democrat To Deplorable," Now Available On Audiobook: https://adbl.co/3qXvlEY​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ Liminal Order: https://www.liminal-order.com Follow Jack Murphy: Twitter: https://twitter.com/jackmurphylive Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jackmurphylive Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jackmurphylive/ Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/JackMurphyLive Minds: https://www.minds.com/jackmurphylive/

These cloths were cleaned by throwing them into a blistering fire, from which they came out unharmed and whiter than when they went in.TIL that the United States Government, in response to a failing dairy market, began to stockpile millions of pounds of cheese in 1977. This stockpile still exists and now contains over 1.3 Billion pounds of cheese across the US.TIL most successful startup companies aren't started by people in their 20s. The average age of founders who started a high-growth company is 45.TIL that America's first space shuttle, The Enterprise, was supposed to be called The Constitution but had its name changed after a massive write-in campaign from Star Trek fans. At the dedication, Gene Roddenberry and cast members from the show were in attendance.Shower ThoughtsBest part about next year is that we finally get a proper sounding decade - "The twenties" The fact that men and women compete separately in Chess championships implies the idea that one gender is smarter than the otherIt’s advisable for a depressed person to not see a Nike ad.

http://blahcadepinball.com/make-your-ownWe’re a bit light-on for pinball talk this week, so in classic BlahCade Pinball Podcast style we talk about other stuff. The main topic centres around how you would need to tread carefully as a game developer if you were going to make a Pinball Construction Kit that didn’t suck and frustrate users. It’s an interesting theoretical discussion about something that probably won’t ever become a reality, so enjoy the speculation. 

Originally, we weren't going to have an episode this week, but at our weekly meeting with our internet lawyer Nick Rekieta, we got to talking about some issues, and luckily he records all of his conversations. Here's what we discussed:-Organic Food-Checks (Cheques for you weirdos)-Taxes/Fees for things you already ownWe all know organic food costs more than the "regular" stuff, but does it taste as good? No way. Look, GMOs are the future, like it or not. The nanomachines they inject our food with add such a satisfying crunch! And as they die, their wriggling forms give your tongue that relieving buzz! Plus, eventually their remains get absorbed into your bloodstream and passed on to your children and that's how we get to our cyberpunk/transhumanist future and YOU WILL NOT DEPRIVE ME OF THAT SO YOU CAN PAY THREE TIMES AS MUCH FOR WORSE TASTING STRAWBERRIES.Speaking of the future, it's pretty clear to see that we're moving towards an all digital, cryptocurrency economy and that's a shame because kids these days won't know all the hassles we've been through with checks. Writing them, depositing them, cashing them, no matter where you run into a check, odds are it'll mess with your day. Please, just give me the least human interaction possible when dealing with my money. I want numbers, not words. These kids have it made, all they'll have left are giant novelty checks, and let's be honest, we'd all prefer to use those over Bitcoin, Dogecoin, or what have you. You tried, Publishers Clearing House. You tried.You know who still uses checks? Old people. You know what's full of old people? The government. You know what the government wants? Your stuff. And if they can't have it, they'll tax the hell out of it until you don't want it anymore. Great, now you've lost all your belongings to taxes, then you lose your home, so you're out on a corner downtown breaking nto the cars of yuppie start-up kids trying to get enough cash for a Subway sandwich. You get just enough by the end of the day and waltz in, ready to eat like a king, but you go to pay, and you're 73 cents short! How could this be?! Damn you taxes! DAMN YOU!ll that and more on this justice filled episode! Plus, we listen to voicemails, talk about some lawsuits, and give you an update on what you can expect on the Patreon. Join the Discord for some hot Eurobeat action.
