    On this episode of Joe Oltmann Untamed, Joe kicks off with a cold open that'll shake you to your core: Newsmax calls for arresting Barack Obama as evidence mounts that he and his crew engineered Russia Gate to tear America apart, while Tulsi Gabbard exposes how Biden and Kamala were never truly in charge the real power brokers pulled the strings. The Commies are now gunning for Tulsi with bogus whistleblower smears after her Fulton County work, but she's fighting back with a damning letter debunking their lies. We dive into Dominion Voting Machines' fraud nightmare, from Michigan Sheriff Dar Leaf's letter to Jim Jordan on rigged elections to Rasmussen's fresh callout on interconnected Dominion scandals foreign access, straw buyers, and the whole rotten system.Energy expert and U.S. Navy veteran Mike Ariza joins to sound the alarm on America's crumbling energy independence, breaking down Valero's accelerated Benicia refinery shutdown amid California's sky-high gas prices ($4.25/gallon and climbing) and regulatory hell that's driving refineries out. With hands-on experience from Chevron, Valero, and Flying J, Mike ties this to the AI race against China, how our shrinking domestic capacity risks blackouts, military vulnerabilities, and losing the tech edge as data centers demand massive power. From nuclear restarts to policy overhauls, he lays out urgent fixes to fuel AI dominance without foreign dependence.We chart A Path Forward no more silence, no more retreat. We confront the indoctrination machine head-on: schools nationwide, from North Central High in Indianapolis (where only ~46% of students read at grade level and ~24% are proficient in math) to Jefferson County, Colorado, are turning classrooms into anti-ICE propaganda zones, teaching kids to dox federal agents and demonize law enforcement, all on taxpayer dollars. Parents are furious one dad in Washington State exploded after his son was dragged to an anti-ICE protest without consent while Fulton County Chairman Robb Pitts declares at a press conference that arrests are coming and the system is cracking. This is the fork in the road: expose, confront, and demand accountability, including arrests for the worst offenders or let radicals keep turning our kids and communities into battlegrounds. The path forward is clear fight now, or lose everything.

    Dear Humans, Today on The God Show, Jesus and I played a clip from an anti-fascist leftist hero who set up a fake "Illegal Immigrant Report" tip line, and racist snitches keep calling it thinking it's real. One of them was a kindergarten teacher trying to get her own 6-year-old student's parents deported. Yes, really. She said it all out loud, then immediately lost her mind the second the guy on the phone started repeating her cruelty back to her in plain English. And after that, we kept going: more calls, more bigots outing themselves, and more proof that these people aren't "concerned citizens." They're wannabe deportation cops with Fox News for a brain. We also hit the real news, including: new polling from Harry Enten showing Americans do not trust Trump on elections a surprise Supreme Court move on California's new maps a Tulsi Gabbard whistleblower deadline that's about to detonate by Friday Seriously though, when you hear how these callers react when the "agent" simply restates what they're asking for, you're going to laugh your ass off. These racist schmucks want to do evil, but they ALSO want to feel self-righteous while they do it. The second you repeat their own evil desires back to them, they totally freak out! There was righteous laughter today. The kind that cleanses your soul. Enjoy!

    In this episode of Facing the Dark, Wayne Stender and Dr. Kathy respond to a landmark legal case that is already reshaping conversations around gender, medicine, and parental fear. A 22-year-old woman, who identified as male as a teenager, was awarded $2 million after a jury found that medical professionals failed to follow standards of care when approving irreversible surgery while she was still a minor. The case raises sobering questions about pressure, fear, consent, and what happens when adults rush to solve a child's distress rather than fully understanding it. Rather than debating politics or policy, this conversation centers on parents, especially those who feel trapped between wanting their child to be safe, wanting them to be happy, and being told that immediate medical intervention is the only loving option. Dr. Kathy speaks candidly about how fear, particularly fear fueled by suicide narratives, can override discernment, silence conscience, create fear, and lead families to decisions they never imagined they would make. The episode explores a crucial distinction: dissatisfaction is not the same as identity. Many kids experience discomfort with their bodies, peer rejection, teasing, or confusion during puberty, but discomfort does not automatically require eradication. Dr. Kathy challenges parents to ask better questions, slow the process down, and help children understand why they feel dissatisfied before affirming irreversible conclusions. Drawing from Raising Gender-Confident Kids, the discussion reframes confidence not as denying struggle, but as building the moral and emotional "chest" that helps children hold discomfort without being swept away by fear or cultural pressure. Parents are encouraged to walk with their kids through seasons of confusion, offering presence, truth, protection, and endurance, rather than rushing to solutions that promise immediate relief but carry lifelong consequences. Rooted in Scripture, the episode reminds listeners that many temptations come dressed as compassion, offering partial truths without full disclosure of cost. Children are especially vulnerable to these narratives when adults bypass conscience in the name of urgency. True love, the hosts argue, does not panic; it shepherds. This episode offers parents courage, clarity, and hope: you are not cruel for slowing down, asking questions, or helping your child sit with discomfort. In fact, that steady presence may be the very thing that forms confidence, resilience, and lasting peace.

    Last month, Action Aid Ireland published a new report highlighting the challenges that lone migrant parents, mainly women, experience when they leave state accommodation. Many face discrimination, unaffordable rents and inadequate supports, leaving them effectively trapped between direct provision and homelessness. In today's episode, Deborah Oniah and Owodunni Mustapha (Ola) - two Nigerian women who have made the move from direct provision into secure housing - share their experience of finding accommodation as single parents in the middle of a housing crisis. We also hear from Karol Balfe, CEO of ActionAid Ireland, who explains what recommendations have come from the report and why for lone migrant parents, the barriers to securing housing are often multiplied. But first, Irish Times opinion editor Jennifer O'Connell is here to discuss some of the biggest stories of the week including the latest tranche of Epstein files released last Friday and a new Netflix documentary which questions the guilt of the UK's “most prolific child killer” Lucy Letby.

    Read Online“Wherever you enter a house, stay there until you leave from there. Whatever place does not welcome you or listen to you, leave there and shake the dust off your feet in testimony against them.” So they went off and preached repentance. The Twelve drove out many demons, and they anointed with oil many who were sick and cured them. Mark 6:10–13During the first half of Jesus' public ministry, despite the religious leaders growing increasingly hostile, He accomplished many things. Numerous conversions took place, many began to believe He was the Messiah, miracles abounded, and His fame spread far and wide. During this time, Jesus gave special attention to twelve of His disciples, setting them apart and designating them as Apostles. Honored by Jesus' special attention, perhaps these twelve men struggled with pride, thinking they were above the rest of the disciples.In today's Gospel, “Jesus summoned the Twelve and began to send them out two by two and gave them authority over unclean spirits” (Mark 6:7). This divine authority was something new to them, a gift beyond anything they had ever known. For that reason, Jesus exhorted them to rely on Divine Providence for their mission, exercising it with humility and simplicity: “He instructed them to take nothing for the journey but a walking stick—no food, no sack, no money in their belts […] He said to them, ‘Wherever you enter a house, stay there until you leave from there'” (Mark 6:8, 10).This was a pivotal moment for the Twelve. During the first half of Jesus' public ministry, the Twelve were our Lord's students: listening to Him, accompanying Him, praying with Him, and learning about the Kingdom of God. Suddenly, the time came for them to act in Jesus' name and with His authority. As they went forth, two by two, preaching repentance in the surrounding towns and villages, something amazing took place. They witnessed God's power working through them, changing lives. With the newfound authority of their words and actions, they must have been amazed to see miracles take place at their command and demons fleeing in their presence.Though the Twelve were entrusted with the unique mission of becoming the foundation upon which Jesus would build His Church—especially Saint Peter, the Prince of the Apostles—we must all see ourselves in this divine commissioning. In accord with the requirements of our own divinely appointed missions, we, too, will be entrusted with “authority over unclean spirits.” Though only those officially sanctioned by the Church act in the formal role of exorcists, God's authority is entrusted to each of us to thwart diabolical activity every day. By simply remaining in a state of grace and relying upon that grace, we participate in Christ's victory over evil, thwarting satan's works, revealing his lies, and assisting others in their quest for interior freedom. We do this in varied ways, depending on our vocations and particular missions.Reflect today on the mission Christ has entrusted to you. Parents, spouses, siblings, co-workers, friends, and neighbors are all called to share in Christ's mission in unique and varied ways. As you ponder your own mission, consider two questions. First, have you, like the Twelve, embraced repentance and conversion by drawing closer to our Lord? Have you committed yourself to deepening that conversion so as to be more fully united with Christ? Secondly, have you allowed your union with Christ to equip you for the mission God has entrusted to you? Do you sense His divine authority in your life, enabling you to preach in His name through your words and deeds? Does your mere presence bring Christ's grace, dispelling darkness and evil? Resolve to continue the mission given to the Twelve in accord with God's will, and you, too, will be amazed at what God will do through you. My glorious Lord, You called the Twelve and formed them in Truth and grace, drawing them into lives of profound conversion. You then sent them forth in Your name to preach repentance and to dispel evil with authority. Please draw me close to You and form me by Your grace so that I not only know, love, and serve You more fully, but also become a greater instrument of Your grace to others.

    If you're a mom today, chances are you've asked yourself some version of this question: "Why does my child melt down over the smallest things; and what am I supposed to do in the moment?" You're not alone. Parents are overwhelmed by big emotions, unpredictable reactions, and advice that sounds good in theory but falls apart in real life. Being told to "use your words" in the middle of a meltdown rarely works. Ignoring behavior feels wrong. And consequences without connection often make things worse. What parents are really looking for are strategies that work in kitchens, cars, grocery stores, and bedrooms at bedtime, not just in parenting books. Let's talk about what actually helps children regulate their emotions, why it works, and how you can use it consistently in everyday moments. In today's episode of Equipped To Be Connie covers: How to Regulate Your Emotions, Relate to Your Child, So You Can Redirect Your Child. -->Behavior Is Communication, Not Defiance Before any strategy can help, parents need one stabilizing reframe. -->Big Emotions Are a Signal, Not a Character Flaw Emotional regulation always starts with the parent. -->A Dysregulated Parent Cannot Regulate a Dysregulated Child -->Relate Before You Redirect Connection is what opens the door to cooperation. -->Naming Feelings Helps the Brain Settle -->Redirect with Clear, Simple Expectations When emotions run high, less language is more effective. Tune in for more practical ways to help you learn the best way to redirect your child in the middle of meltdowns and outbursts without losing your cool.

The conversation explores how estrangement can trigger old wounds and feelings of confusion, panic, and helplessness. Kreed emphasizes the importance of understanding these feelings without assigning blame, and the need for support and permission to process these emotions. The episode also addresses the perspective of adult children and the challenges of reconciliation, highlighting that healing is not always linear and may require different approaches at different times.Takeaways- Mothers with significant trauma histories can experience an unraveling due to estrangement.- Healing is not always a linear process.- Estrangement can activate old survival (ie: protective) systems in the body.- Reconciliation can sometimes exacerbate feelings of distress.- Permission to pause and seek support is crucial.Resources & SupportFacebook Support Group (facilitated by Kreed) - https://www.facebook.com/groups/estrangedmotherssupportgroupOne-on-One ServicesPrivate coachingConsultingMediation servicesConnect with Kreed:Website: theestrangedheart.comEmail: hello@theestrangedheart.comSupport the work: Buy Me a Coffee (donation platform)Disclaimer: Kreed Revere is not a licensed therapist.

    In March 1928, 9-year-old Walter Collins disappeared from Los Angeles after going to the movies. His single mother, Christine Collins, reported him missing, triggering a massive LAPD search amid the department's corruption scandal and recent criticism over the brutal Marion Parker murder.   Five months later, the LAPD reunited Christine with an impostor boy from Illinois claiming to be Walter to salvage their reputation. Despite obvious physical differences and confirmation from others that he wasn't her son, Captain J.J. Jones coerced her into taking him home and, when she persisted with evidence, had her involuntarily committed to a psychiatric ward for about a week under "Code 12" to silence her.   The boy soon confessed to being 12-year-old runaway Arthur Hutchins Jr., securing Christine's release and sparking public outrage. Meanwhile, the case linked to the Wineville Chicken Coop Murders: serial killer Gordon Stewart Northcott, aided by his mother and nephew Sanford Clark, abducted, abused, tortured, and murdered young boys on his farm. Evidence and confessions tied Walter to the victims—he was reportedly killed with an axe—though his body was never definitively found. Northcott was hanged in 1930; his mother received life.   Christine sued successfully for false imprisonment (though payment was evaded) and helped inspire a 1931 law requiring due process for psychiatric commitments. She never accepted Walter's death, searching until her own in 1964. The story, dramatized in the 2008 film Changeling, exposes police corruption, institutional misogyny, and profound maternal grief.   This month's Branch of Hope sponsored charity is:   The Parents of Murdered Children. POMC provides ongoing emotional support, education, prevention, advocacy, and awareness for survivors of homicide victims, while working toward a world free of murder. It is the only national self-help organization specifically focused on the aftermath of murder. It emphasizes helping survivors reconstruct a "new life" after acute grief and dealing with the criminal justice system.

    As conversations about banning phones and curbing screen use grow louder, parents are left asking an honest question: Is technology the problem, or are we? In this episode of Facing the Dark, Wayne Stender and Dr. Kathy Koch explore new legislative efforts around screen limits and use them as a springboard for a much more personal conversation about parenting and formation. Dr. Kathy reframes the issue with clarity and grace: technology itself isn't the enemy, but when it becomes the primary way kids (and adults) cope with boredom or anxiety, something essential is lost. Parents are challenged to look inward first, recognizing that kids will struggle to give up screens if adults aren't willing to do the same. The episode explores why screens often become a refuge for anxious hearts, and why removing them without replacing them leaves kids unprepared to process life well. Rather than advocating for extremes, the conversation centers on coexisting wisely with technology. Parents are encouraged to build alternative rhythms that include quiet, prayer, creativity, play, conversation, and service, so screens aren't the default solution to every uncomfortable moment. Dr. Kathy also offers a clear, realistic vision for a family tech policy: visible alternatives, no devices in bedrooms, strong boundaries, character based decisions, and parents who are confident enough to say no without guilt. Grounded in Jesus' teaching about the Sabbath in Mark 2, the episode reminds families that limits are not punishments; they are gifts. Just as rest was designed to restore humanity, wise tech boundaries protect attention and relationships. When children learn that they are valued apart from constant stimulation or connection, they gain freedom rather than restriction. This episode equips parents to lead with humility and courage, helping technology return to its rightful place as a tool, not a ruler.

    The Nick Reiner case has sparked a national conversation about mental health, addiction, and what happens when families run out of options. But lost in the debate about system failures is a harder question: What do you do when someone refuses to be saved?Today we examine Nick Reiner's documented history — not through tabloid speculation, but through his own words in interviews spanning nearly a decade. From telling NPR he was a "spoiled, white, rich kid" to choosing homelessness over rehab rules to admitting on a podcast that he destroyed his parents' guest house while high on uppers — the pattern is consistent and chilling.We break down the 2015 film Being Charlie, where Nick co-wrote scenes depicting his father as complicit in his suffering — and got Rob Reiner to direct it. We examine how Michele Reiner publicly apologized for believing professionals who warned her that Nick was manipulating them. And we trace the conservatorship that expired in 2021, leaving the family with no legal mechanism to intervene.Nick Reiner has been charged with two counts of first-degree murder. He has not been convicted, and all individuals are presumed innocent until proven guilty. But the documented record of his own statements raises questions that every family dealing with addiction and mental illness needs to hear.This is True Crime Today's editorial analysis of what the evidence reveals.#NickReiner #RobReiner #TrueCrimeToday #BrentwoodMurder #Addiction #MentalHealth #BeingCharlie #Hollywood #FamilyViolence #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

    Rob and Michele Reiner did everything right. Every treatment program. Every therapy session. They made a movie together as a family trying to heal. They publicly apologized for listening to professionals instead of their son. They let him live in their guest house even after he destroyed it in a drug-fueled rage.And according to prosecutors, Nick Reiner allegedly stabbed them both to death.This episode isn't about what failed Nick Reiner. It's about what Nick Reiner refused to let work. Through his own documented words — interviews with NPR, People Magazine, and multiple podcast appearances — we trace the psychological architecture of a man who turned every advantage into evidence of suffering, every intervention into an attack, and every person who tried to help him into an enemy.We examine the 2020 conservatorship that expired before it could save anyone. The medication change one month before the killings. The argument at Conan O'Brien's Christmas party the night before. And the pattern of cognitive distortions that let Nick cast himself as the victim of a loving, successful family that never stopped trying.This is an editorial examination of documented facts — not speculation. And it's for every family out there watching someone they love construct the same victim identity, wondering if anything they do will ever be enough.Sometimes it won't be.

    A LinkedIn Live conversation on money confidence, risk and the future of careers Over the last few years, work has quietly shifted from ambition to survival. Rising living costs, economic uncertainty, layoffs and AI have changed how people make career decisions. Instead of taking risks or pursuing meaningful work, many are staying put not because they want to, but because it feels safer to stay. The media has called this the Big Stay or job-hugging. Why these two perspectives together Louise and Ruth operate at different, but deeply connected, points in the system. Louise works at the earliest stage, where money beliefs, habits and confidence are formed in childhood and adolescence. Ruth works at the adult decision-making stage, where financial confidence shapes career risk-taking, leadership progression, entrepreneurship and long-term wellbeing. Together, they offer an end-to-end view of how money confidence shapes working lives. Why money confidence often matters more than income when it comes to career choices How financial insecurity quietly shapes promotions, leadership ambition and risk-taking Why people from less affluent backgrounds are less likely to take career risks, even when highly capable How early money beliefs follow people into adulthood and the workplace Why financial wellbeing is the most neglected pillar of workplace wellbeing What leaders and organisations can do to reduce fear-driven decision-making without being intrusive What you'll learn in this episode This conversation reframes financial literacy not as budgeting or products, but as freedom, confidence and optionality. Money confidence influences: Who feels able to negotiate, speak up or take risks Who progresses into leadership roles Who starts businesses or new ventures Who opts out, plays safe or stays stuck Why this matters for leaders and organisations For leaders concerned about engagement, retention, wellbeing, DEI and social mobility, this episode highlights a hidden but powerful driver of workplace behaviour.

We can't wait to experience miracles with you!   Welcome to a new episode of the Future Generations Podcast. In this episode, Dr. Stanton Hom sits down with Zack Ponder, father, advocate, and host of The Unspecial Podcast, for a powerful conversation about healing, medical freedom, and the role parents were never meant to surrender. Together, they explore why questioning the system is not anti-medicine, how fear-based control has replaced true health care, and why the nervous system sits at the center of childhood chronic illness. This episode is a reminder that healing doesn't come from compliance. It comes from awareness, partnership, and trusting the wisdom built into the body and the family.   Highlights: "Healing doesn't happen where obedience is demanded."   "Every symptom is the body's strategy to heal."   "Our kids aren't broken. Their nervous systems are overwhelmed."   "This isn't about rejecting medicine. It's about rejecting fear-based control."   Timestamps:   00:00 – Introduction 01:42 – If Questioning Medicine Makes You Dangerous… 03:28 – From Trauma to Miracles for Our Kids 07:23 – Jack 2.0: The Perfect Storm Kid Transforms 09:09 – Are We Raising Healthier Kids—or Just Shackled Ones? 11:12 – Has Medicine Confused Obedience with Success? 15:35 – Healing vs Curing: The Body's Own Strategy 21:23 – Three Root Causes: Toxins, Deficiencies, Trauma 26:28 – Fight-or-Flight, Modern Stress, and Our Kids 49:18 – Who Takes Care of Mom?

    Parents are overwhelmed with school choices—and most are being asked to decide without the information that actually matters. Research shows students don't learn more because a teacher is certified, experienced, or passionate. They learn more when they believe their teacher knows what they're doing, cares about them, and can actually help them succeed. In this episode, we break down one of the highest-impact findings in all of education research: teacher credibility, with an effect size of 0.90—meaning it has more impact on learning than class size, homework, or school type. We'll explore what builds or breaks credibility, why student perception matters more than adult intention, and the seven evidence-based conditions students need to learn—including safety, belonging, emotional regulation, appropriate challenge, relevance, feedback, and consistency. If you're questioning traditional school, exploring alternatives, or trying to understand what actually helps children learn, this episode will give you clarity, confidence, and research-backed insight to make informed decisions. ----more---- Microschool Masterminds: skool.com/microschool-masterminds Every Thursday from 12-1 pm (EST), join Makenzie Oliver, microschool founder, VELA connector, and instructional coach, along with other founders, parents, and dreamers, as we connect, inspire, and progress through the challenges and celebrations of starting, running, and growing a microschool!
