Send us Fan MailMany women over 50 believe it's too late to build muscle.The truth is... it's not.In this episode, I sit down with author and strength advocate Jeanne Phares, who shares how a leukemia diagnosis completely changed her perspective on fitness, aging, and why muscle may be one of the greatest predictors of longevity.We discuss why strength training becomes even more important after menopause, why cardio alone isn't enough anymore, how protein supports healthy aging, and why it's never too late to become stronger.Whether you've never lifted a weight before or you're returning after years away from exercise, this episode will help you understand where to start and why it matters.In this episode you'll learn:• Why women lose muscle after 40 and 50• Why strength training matters more than cardio for healthy aging• The biggest myths that stop women from lifting weights• Why lifting weights won't make you "bulky"• How protein helps preserve muscle after menopause• The best beginner exercises for women over 50• How to build confidence before walking into a gym• Why it's never too late to start getting strongerConnect with Jeanne Phares
Genealogies are easy to skip, but they can change how you see Jesus and yourself.We open Matthew 1:1–6 & 16–17 tracing lineages from Abraham to David to Christ, then we turn to Hebrews 1:1–5 to hear the bigger news, God has spoken to us by His Son. That combination gives us a sharp picture of Jesus' true humanity and His divine authority, not as abstract doctrine, but as a foundation you can stand on when your week gets noisy.From there, we get personal about identity and purpose.If we accept Christ, we're not just inspired by a story, we're adopted into God's family, with real access to God through Jesus. And with that belonging comes responsibility, the “family business.”We focus on two core assignments that shape Christian living and spiritual growth, love through action and sharing the gospel. We talk honestly about why loving yourself can be the harder challenge, and how Scriptures on self-control, renewal of the mind, and disciplined living help us become a visible example that matches what we say we believe.We also clear up the pressure around evangelism. Preaching doesn't have to be with a microphone or in a pulpit. For most of us, it looks like a lived sermon - steady faith, faithful service, and small acts done in our own corner of the world while we keep going even when we're tired.If you're looking for a Christian podcast Bible study that connects Matthew 1, Hebrews 1, discipleship, and practical daily obedience, this one is built for you.

Baxie talks with Scott Phares from The Hollywood Stars. The Hollywood Stars were a band that was hand selected by the notorious Kim Fowley to be the West Coast answer to the New York Dolls. While things didn't exactly work out that way, the Hollywood Stars attempted to record several albums that were either abandoned or sat on the shelves for several decades. And yet, two of their songs were taken by producer Bob Ezrin and appeared on what would become platinum albums for both KISS and Alice Cooper! (“King of the Nighttime World” from KISS's Destroyer” and “Escape” which appeared on Cooper's Welcome to My Nightmare). In 2013 released their previously unreleased album “Shine Like a Radio”. Six years later they released their second lost album “Sound City”. Both were released to great critical acclaim. In 2024 the Hollywood Stars reformer and released the album “Starstruck” which was also well received. And on July 17th the Hollywood Stars released their latest album, “Hey L.A.”. And it's even better! One of the great comeback stories in Rock history! Listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, and on the Rock102 app. Brought to you by Metro Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram

Florida was built on the legacies of men like Captain F. A. Hendry and the other cow men like him; men who created a solid economic foundation, gave generously to build their communities, and had a keen vision for the future. In this episode we examine Captain Hendry's life from his earliest days in South Georgia to his cattle empire and ultimately his navigation through the state's political channels to forge Lee and Hendry counties. Capturing the breadth of his vision and influence for Florida in this brief intro is practically impossible so be sure to tune in for the full story.

On this episode of the podcast, Amanda Head questions President Trump in the Oval Office about the cost and affordability of IVF before welcoming foreign policy expert Dr. Walid Phares for a deep dive into the growing tensions in the Middle East.Dr. Phares speculates that Trump's recent meeting with Iranian generals may have involved discussions connected to opposition figures inside Iran, while warning that many in Washington still fail to fully understand the intentions and survival tactics of the Iranian regime. He sharply criticizes Tehran's long history of oppression, terrorism funding, and crackdowns on its own people, contrasting it with what he describes as Trump's more direct and strategic approach.The conversation also explores whether the United States should actively support Iran's opposition movement, particularly younger generations pushing for change from within. Dr. Phares predicts the current standoff could reach a critical turning point by mid-June, arguing that allowing tensions to drag on may carry major political consequences both abroad and at home.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

What happens when global conflict becomes deeply personal? In this episode of Mom Curious, Daniella sits down with human rights advocate Gazelle Sharmahd and Middle East expert Dr. Walid Phares to discuss the escalating tensions involving Israel, the United States, and Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). Gazelle's advocacy began after the abduction of her father, Jamshid Sharmahd, a German-American dissident who was kidnapped in 2020 and taken to Iran. His case became an international human rights story and transformed Gazelle's life, moving her from private citizen to outspoken advocate for political prisoners and freedom movements. Joined by foreign policy scholar Walid Phares, the conversation explores the broader geopolitical context surrounding Iran's ruling regime, the role of the IRGC, and how these global conflicts affect families, civilians, and the future of democracy in the region. Together, they discuss resilience, advocacy, and the emotional toll of fighting for justice on the world stage. This conversation examines what happens when the fight for freedom begins at home - and why understanding these conflicts matters to all of us raising the next generation. Listen, share with a friend, and follow Mom Curious wherever you get your podcasts.

Quand on pense aux phares, on imagine souvent une tour romantique face à l'océan, une lanterne qui brille dans la nuit, et un gardien contemplatif, un peu poète. Mais dans le vrai jargon des gardiens de phare français, la réalité était beaucoup plus… rugueuse. Ils classaient les phares en trois catégories, selon la difficulté de la vie sur place : le paradis, le purgatoire et l'enfer.Le paradis, c'est le phare “facile” : un phare côtier, posé sur la terre ferme. Là, on peut vivre presque normalement. Les relèves sont simples, l'intendance aussi : si vous manquez de café, quelqu'un peut en apporter. Certains gardiens pouvaient même loger en famille. Il y a bien des contraintes — du vent, de l'humidité, des marches à monter — mais globalement, c'est une vie stable.Le purgatoire, lui, est plus isolé : c'est le phare sur une île proche ou un îlot. La vie y est déjà plus dure : il faut compter sur les bateaux, surveiller les provisions, accepter le huis clos… mais on garde un lien avec le monde. La terre n'est pas loin, même si elle se mérite.Et puis il y a l'enfer. L'enfer, c'est le phare posé sur un rocher en pleine mer, sans protection, dans l'Atlantique ou en Manche, là où les vagues frappent comme des béliers. Pas de plage, pas de sentier, pas d'accostage tranquille. La relève dépend de la météo : on peut être censé rester quinze jours… et finalement en rester trente. Dans ces phares, le gardien est parfois enfermé dans le bâtiment, coincé par les tempêtes, vivant au rythme des coups de vent et des paquets de mer qui claquent sur les murs.D'ailleurs, certains phares avaient une réputation quasi mythologique. En Bretagne, le phare d'Ar-Men était surnommé carrément « l'Enfer des Enfers », tant la construction et la vie sur place étaient éprouvantes.Ce classement n'avait rien d'officiel : c'était un langage de métier, un humour noir de marins, né de l'expérience. Mais il dit tout : un phare, ce n'est pas seulement un monument. C'est parfois une forteresse. Et pendant longtemps, certains hommes y ont tenu bon… seuls, au milieu de l'océan. Hébergé par Acast.

In this episode, we cover some fun history by taking a look at the name origins for Florida's 67 counties. The names come from many sources including famous public figures, historic languages, prominent landmarks, and more. There are surprises here even for the seasoned Florida native so be sure to tune in and share it with your friends and family. Note: We had multiple undiagnosed technical difficulties recording this episode. After a second recording attempt of the second half that partially failed again, we salvaged one audio line to complete the episode. With that said, please excuse the diminished audio quality of the second half as we had to settle for one mic recording both voices.
