Podcasts about Plain

There's a vast difference between those who dream and those who do. Plain and simple—it's the doers, the ones who take action, who actually make things happen. So, how do you get to that point? Maybe you're not feeling ambitious, or maybe you're too fearful—or just too comfortable with where you are right now. Well, in today's video, I'm here to light a fire under you and get you out of dreaming and into doing. Let's get the ball rolling and out of your head!

Join us this week as we revisit Presbyterian minister Daniel Baker's A Plain and Scriptural View of Baptism (1853). In this concise, winsome exposition—rooted in both adult and infant covenantal theology—Baker distills biblical teaching on the mode and significance of baptism. Based on an earlier Washington, D.C. sermon (A Scriptural View of Baptism, 1827), and later condensed into Baptism in a Nutshell (1856), his timeless clarity continues to edify today. Tune in to discover why his pastoral voice remains so compelling for thoughtful Christian listeners.

The recent shooting in Minnesota is raising more questions than answers. The suspect 57-year-old Vance Boelter is charged with killing a Minnesota state lawmaker and her husband and wounding a second lawmaker and his wife. But who is Vince Boelter? Just like Ryan Routh, who was charged with the attempted assassination of Donald Trump, it seems to have all the earmarks of mystery, covert ops, and the deep state. Also on the program, is their trouble in paradise? Bob shares the deep divisions that are becoming increasingly visible in the Democrat party. Now, do you believe in this ministry?

Despite the stereotypes research shows we are the most likely to be active in our children's lives. In light of the recent hostility between Israel and Iran he then discusses what Malcolm would say about Palestine. Malcolm was firmly behind the Palestinian people, linking the struggle for Black freedom to those of oppressed people around the globe. There is no contradiction in trying to build Black independence AND supporting other oppressed groups. Both are essential.

CJ Plain has been eager to break down a favorite album for a long time, and we're making it happen this week in our chat lab. 2018's "Some Tough City" by former Rainbow keyboardist Tony Carey paints a hard rocking view of the streets, crimes and tent cities of East LA. Merging sounds sure to please fans of guitar-centric bands like Thin Lizzy, Cheap Trick and Queen into a unique arena rock blend, Carey turns his experience with such legends as Ritchie Blackmore into a gem of his own. #Rainbow #tonycarey #ritchieblackmore #sometoughcity #coldwarkids #reachout #antisocialnetworkYUH Theme by David T and Mojo 3https://www.amazon.com/Insanity-Sobri...Some Tough City by Tony Carey on Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/album/5xOXMBMX8vMT86wtTR9Z2o?si=QeDTSWIYQKObyIyhNrYESwThe Loud List on Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/4C0llQ13OnXKezsMqKVPqyThe Noize Report on Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/4nwjAECkWeJJd5tfjjkgQuAnti Social Network on Youtubehttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1NrDN795E7qwmKL5wS6z7wYeah Uh Huh Social Stuff:Yeah Uh Huh on TikTokhttps://www.tiktok.com/@yeahuhhuhpodYeah Uh Huh on Facebookhttps://facebook.com/YeahUhHuhPodYeah Uh Huh on Twitterhttps://twitter.com/YeahUhHuhPodYeah Uh Huh on Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/7pS9l716ljEQLeMMxwihoS?si=27bd15fb26ed46aaYeah Uh Huh on Apple Podcastshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/yeah-uh-huh/id1565097611Yeah Uh Huh Website:https://yeah-uh-huh.wixsite.com/yeahuhhuhpod

Guiding Question: What kind of spirituality actually works in real life—and how do the cross and the Holy Spirit make it possible? Summary: Robert Lewis dives into the heart of “real-world spirituality” through Paul's words in 1 Corinthians 2. Speaking to the sophisticated, style-obsessed Corinthians, Paul came not with flair or polished rhetoric but with a plain and simple message centered on Christ crucified. His lack of impressive speech was deliberate—it was the cross, not charisma, that carried power. Robert unpacks two essential pillars of life-transforming faith: Deeply Embrace the Cross – Real spirituality starts with dying to self. Without the cross, compromise creeps in, and spiritual growth stalls. Like the Corinthians, many believers today live forgiven but powerless lives because they resist the daily dying that unleashes resurrection power. Robert illustrates this with compelling stories—from a man who found freedom and generosity after surrendering financial control, to a broken father-son relationship healed by humility and repentance. The point: no death, no power. But on the other side of the cross is life, healing, and glory. Deeply Engage the Holy Spirit – Beyond self-denial, real spirituality includes a dynamic, intimate partnership with the Holy Spirit. He reveals God's thoughts to us, offers conviction, direction, and encouragement, and empowers discernment. Without the Spirit, believers grow spiritually dull, operating like a spiritual rover on Mars—barely receiving God's signal. But with the Spirit, believers gain wisdom, spiritual insight, and intimacy with God. Robert closes with two reflective questions for listeners: Where do you need to die to yourself? Do you want to be closer to God? He urges listeners to begin each day by surrendering to the cross and inviting the Holy Spirit in—plain and simple. Key Takeaways: Real spirituality isn't flashy—it's crucified and Spirit-filled. Without dying to self, we will always compromise God's best. The cross leads to spiritual power, freedom, and relational healing. The Holy Spirit enables daily intimacy with God and insight for living. Mature believers experience both the cost and the glory of following Christ.

He also uses Malcolm's words to warn that 'these leaders over here who are receiving the praise and pats on the back from the Americans, you can just flush the toilet and let them go right down the drain'.

Luke 6: 27-49 The New Way of Jesus Part 2. Kingdom Ethics Luke’s Sermon on the Plain continues. We read together Luke 6: 27-49 This is a shorter version of Matthew’s sermon but it still contains no less than 22 separate points! We will look at them in groups. 1. Love your enemies v27, 28 It is easy to miss some of the practical implications of these statements. They mean, for instance, that a Christian will never refuse to speak to someone, whatever they may have said or done. And it will affect our behaviour towards someone who wants the same job as we do. Question 1: What effect will it have on us if we force ourselves to speak kindly in those sorts of situation? Where else can you think of where obeying Jesus might have some positive results in our everyday and family life? Pause. Even if we have to force ourselves to speak well in that sort of situation doing so will have a good effect on our underlying attitudes towards that person. If we fall out with someone at work we must be careful to greet them in exactly our usual cheerful way the next morning. They will find it very hard to respond in anything other than the same way. It is hard to obey Jesus when the inevitable problems of family life occur. Are you the person who is always the first to try and mend a damaged relationship? 2. Not standing up for our rights v29-31 Is it really possible to act like this in the real world? What happens if someone takes my bicycle? Do I give them my motorbike? Perhaps Jesus is making one of his outrageously impossible statements (camels through needles; plucking out eyes etc.) so that we remember better the principle behind what he said. Total obedience to what Jesus taught here would rapidly lead to us having no money at all! Question 2: What should we do in the practical things of every day to put the principle behind these statements into practice? Pause. I think the only possible answer to this is to say we have to be careful not to put ourselves first in what we do but put others in front of ourselves. It is, of course, a great deal easier to say that than to actually do it in the real world we live in. It is also, of course, a great deal easier to hear it said and mentally agree than to go out and do it! 3. Doing better than expected v32–35a Probably ‘lending’ in that culture, as in many, was a nice way of talking about giving somebody something. Question 3: Should we ever lend like that without expectation of a return? Shouldn’t we call it what it is from the beginning if that is what we intend, rather than using such double talk? Pause. Not all the things our culture wants us to do are necessarily what we should do as followers of Jesus. In some cultures it is more important to say something that pleases the person we are talking to than to tell the truth. Jesus said he was “the way, the truth, and the life”. That means we must be in all things as truthful as we can possibly be even if that is against our culture and traditions. 4. The results of this behaviour v35b, 36 We will probably see that we will have all sorts of problems in living up to what Jesus said. It is so difficult to obey what he said and still live life in the real world. Perhaps it is impossible. But Jesus was probably doing this deliberately to make us see that we can never in ourselves be good enough to appear before the Lord God. We can only rely on his mercy and goodness consequent on the self-sacrifice of Jesus on the Cross for our acceptance. Question 4: Why does Jesus call us sons, or children, in this context (v36b)? Pause. This is to emphasize that we are in a personal relationship with the Father God. And that again can only be through the acceptance that Jesus obtained for us by his death on the Cross. When we call God our Father that means we accept all our fellow Christians as our brothers and sisters. 5. What we give will be what we get v37, 38 The first sentence in v37 is sometimes used to suggest we should never judge anything or anybody at all. But, of course, we do! If we didn’t, how could we ever correct anyone and life in and out of the church would be impossibly difficult. Question 5: How should we understand v37 in such a way as to be realistic and yet follow Jesus properly? Pause. Matthew adds ‘in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.’ (Matt 7: 2). If we are prepared to face the truth and be judged by it we may make other people face the truth. If not, not! Verses 37b and 38 could be taken to mean simply the better you are the better your life will be. Life is never as easy as that (Ps 73: 1-5, 13, 14). Question 6: How, then, do we understand what Jesus meant? Pause. Some people teach a false gospel which promises obvious material blessing to the believer. This is clearly not the way the Kingdom in the world works as Ps 73: 2, 13, 14 points out. The book of Job and Luke 13: 1 –5 say much the same. What we are promised is reward for faithfulness in the day of the Lord when the world comes to an end. We are to look to our own reward and not make judgments on what should happen to other people. 6. How to live for the Kingdom v39–45 The parables of the blind, the student and the plank all, in different ways, emphasize that we need to be walking in the Way of Jesus if we want to be good and do things that matter in the kingdom of the Spirit. We need to be able to see, to be properly trained and not be blinded by things that should not be there. Then the parable of the good tree emphasizes that we need to be the right sort of tree. Being a better thorn bush will not lead to fruit, just bigger thorns! Question 7: How can we tell whether someone, or ourselves, is the right sort of tree? Pause. When we set out to follow Jesus we are told that we shall be saved at the final day. But we are also told that account will be taken of the whole of our lives as followers (Rom 14: 10, 12; 2 Cor 5: 10). It is hard to see how these two teachings fit together. It is best to take them both as the Lord’s word to us and strive to live in the light of both of them. 7. The Summary v46-49 Luke’s version of this story is slightly different from Matthew’s perhaps more familiar one. It is often called ‘the parable of the Wise and Foolish Builders’. That is a good title for the parable in Matthew, not so good for this one of Luke’s! Question 8: What title would more accurately summarize this parable? Pause. The word ‘foundation’ is the most important one in this parable. It ties this parable to many other Biblical verses. Perhaps the most significant is Isaiah 28: 16 which refers to the temple but is used by Peter (1 Pet 2: 6) of Jesus. In Peter’s little picture Jesus is the all important foundation. Peter, like Jesus, emphasises that we are to do the building. Click or tap here to save/download this as a MP3 audio file

Paige announced her exit from Summer House this morning, coming off the final reunion episode of Summer House season 9. We have thoughts on why she's leaving and what might be next for her. Amanda and Kyle shared that they have had struggles in their marriage over the last year - and we have some tea on how Kyle's behavior isn't exactly matching up with his words. Is it ever appropriate for a married person to give another person (of the sex they are attracted to) their phone number? How do we handle this situation in our real lives? Next Gen NYC is here and we are pleasantly surprised that we loved the first episode. We do a breakdown on each castmember - backgound and who we're liking and who can go. Plus, our thoughts on why this show really could become Bravo's next big franchise. And last, we share a comment from our friend and Cocktail Party member, @stonecolddaddy about Jax. We couldn't agree more. We hope you're listening on this one, Bravo.    This week's podcast is sponsored by Caraway Home. This summer, quit cooking with toxins and make a healthy swap to Caraway.

Bagels are one of the most famous NYC foods and a MUST-have during your time here. Many people argue that New York is the capital of the world for bagels.Why are the bagels so good in NYC?Many people claim that the bagels in NYC are so amazing because the tap water here is considered some of the best in the world. NYC has "soft" water from the Catskill Mountains, meaning it has lower concentrations of calcium and magnesium. The mineral content in water affects the gluten in the dough. Extra hard water strengthens the gluten, which can cause tougher baked goods, meaning softer water yields softer baked goods. Some bagel experts claim the bagels are so good in NYC because of the refined bagel techniques, including longer proofing time and boiling techniques before baking. Either way, the bagels in New York City are truly second to none.Liberty Bagels4 locations in NYC. 5th Ave by the Plaza Hotel/Central Park. Midtown location by Herald Square. Fidi location. Queens location.They offer fun-flavored cream cheeses and always have rainbow bagels (plain flavor with fun colors). It also features seasonal colors, which are a fun addition. We love the BEC, works bagel, and blueberry bagel. Try the cream cheese before you commit to an entire bagel's worth of it. We recommend ordering ahead of time on weekends and holidays. Otherwise, the line takes about 30 minutes on a busy weekend morning.PopUp Bagels6 locations in NYC (some in Massachusetts, Connecticut, Long Island, NY).Ashley's new favorite bagel spot in the city!!They sell the bagels in increments of 3. For example, the smallest order is 3 bagels and 1 schmear, which is great for 2 people and costs $12.The menu is simple and they only have 5 bagel flavors (Plain, Sesame, Everything, Salt, Poppyseed). Then they have plain cream cheese, scallion, seasonal cream cheese, butter, and vegan schmear options. It's the softest and freshest bagels I've ever had, and also the best scallion cream cheese I've ever had.Pick-A-BagelPick a bagel is a solid option, and they have a few locations around the city. We like their bagels with cream cheese and their bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich on everything.The ordering process can be a little chaotic, so be prepared for that.Russ & DaughtersSince 1914, this landmark NYC institution has been continuously owned and operated by four generations of the Russ family. A classic bagel establishment serving a variety of bagels, lox, pickles, and desserts. It's been open for more than a century and has 2 locations on the Lower East Side, one in Hudson Yards, and one in Brooklyn.Getting a platter can be fun if you want to sit down and have a true experience with a variety of spreads, breads, and smoked fish. If you want a bagel with lox, plan on it costing around $20. This place has a wide variety of options. You can get a regular bagel and cream cheese or you could buy caviar. I sampled the pastrami-cured smoked salmon, and it was the best of my entire life. Apollo BagelsWe haven't been here, but it is a very popular spot. Every photo, video, and review I've seen looks amazing. Only 3 bagel options (plain, everything, sesame). From what I've heard and seen online, plan on waiting in line for 30 min.General Bagel Tips-Each bagel shop has a different ordering process. Follow what others are doing and you should be fine.-Bagel shops are usually a good place to try a black and white cookie.-If you go to a deli or bodega, you can get a cheaper BEC option that will still be delicious, but it won't be made on a good bagel. -Bagel shop coffee is usually mediocre. It's fine and will do the job, but if you are a coffee connoisseur, be warned.You'll Have to Check It Out - SugarfishFairly priced, delicious omakase sushi. Check it out here.

Discover the fascinating tale of Jesus' alleged grave in Japan, a story that intertwines history, myth, and cultural intrigue. This unique narrative suggests that during the so-called 'lost years' of Jesus, he traveled across Eurasia to Japan, where he studied with Buddhist masters. The legend continues with a dramatic twist: on the eve of his crucifixion, Jesus' brother Isuki took his place on the cross, allowing Jesus to escape back to Japan. There, he supposedly lived a peaceful life as a garlic farmer, married, and had children. This story is rooted in a small Japanese village, where two mounds are said to contain Jesus' body and a lock of his brother's hair. While this tale may seem far-fetched, it reflects the deep cultural exchanges and historical mysteries that continue to captivate imaginations worldwide.

In many cultures, marriage is seen as a rite of passage, a transition from individual life to a shared existence. It is a celebration of love and unity, where two people vow to support and uplift each other. This union is often compared to a temple, a sacred space where love is nurtured and protected. The symbolism of marriage extends beyond the couple, encompassing family, community, and even spirituality. It is a testament to the power of love to transcend boundaries and bring people together. Marriage is not without its challenges, but it is these very challenges that strengthen the bond between partners. Through communication, compromise, and understanding, couples learn to navigate life's ups and downs together. The journey of marriage is a continuous process of growth and discovery, where partners learn to appreciate each other's strengths and weaknesses. It is a journey that ultimately leads to a deeper understanding of oneself and one's partner.

In November 1932, Germany was a republic. By the spring of 1933, it was a dictatorship. How did it all happen so quickly? Fascination with Adolf Hitler requires no news peg, but I've been particularly interested in understanding the story of Hitler's rise, because in the past few months, several prominent podcast hosts—including Joe Rogan and Tucker Carlson—have mainstreamed revisionist histories of the Nazi regime and WWII. These new histories often soften Hitler's antisemitism and treat him as a man of limited ambition; a guy who just wanted to give Germans a bit more living room, who was pulled into a continental war by Winston Churchill. The best book that I've read that makes use of the trove of documentation on the subject is 'Hitler's People,' by the historian Richard Evans, who is today's guest. Evans is the author of a famous three-volume history of Hitler—'The Coming of the Third Reich,' 'The Third Reich in Power,' and 'The Third Reich at War'_—_and he is widely considered the most comprehensive historian of Nazi Germany in the world. His new book distills his multi-thousand-page history into an elegant 100-page synthesis of Hitler's life, followed by profiles of his most important advisers. The end of the book is particularly interesting, as it profiles ordinary Germans of the time, for the purpose of explaining how normal, non-psychopathic people found themselves involved in a regime so brutal that it's become a synonym for evil.

In this direct, practical guidance, Moojibaba shares a master key for transcending the suffering of the personal mind. “My advice is to see that whatever you're experiencing—it's a mind state. Just be very, very broad about it. Whatever form it takes, see it as a state and not as a particular problem. What is perceiving it? This is the power of Awareness. Plain awareness is not involved in the mind stream. And that's what you are, the Awareness itself.” Monte Sahaja, Portugal 12 April 2025 ~ If you would like to support the sharing of Satsang, you can donate here: mooji.org/donate #Mooji #satsang #spirituality #advaita #nonduality #awakening

Bickley and Marotta talk Suns, Bickley Blasts on the Diamondbacks, and we're joined by Kent Somers.

In every generation, important people predict that the end is near and the apocalypse is coming. In the 1960s, the fear was that population growth would destroy the planet—that fertility would outrun the food supply, and hundreds of millions of people would starve to death. The most famous warning was 'The Population Bomb,' a bestselling book published in 1968 by Stanford ecologist Paul Ehrlich, which claimed "the battle to feed all of humanity is over" and “hundreds of millions of people would starve to death” in the 1970s. But then the 1970s came and went. And global famine deaths didn't rise. They declined by 90 percent. In the 1980s, deaths from world hunger fell again. And again in the 1990s. And again in the 2000s. The apocalypse that everybody said was coming never came. And the reason is, basically, we invented super wheat. In the 1950s and 1960s, a plant pathologist named Norman Borlaug, working in Mexico on fungus-resistant wheat on a grant from the Rockefeller Foundation, managed to create a breed of wheat that was super abundant, efficient, and disease-resistant. His work kickstarted what's known as the Green Revolution, a movement whose discoveries are responsible for keeping roughly half the planet alive. In 2007, when Borlaug was 93, The Wall Street Journal editorialized that he had “arguably saved more lives than anyone in history. Maybe one billion.” Today's guest is Charles C. Mann, a journalist and author. We talk about the long history of the Green Revolution. Who was Norman Borlaug? What did he actually do? How did he do it? What does his accomplishment teach us about science, invention, and progress? We're at a moment today when American science is being cut to the bone while foreign aid is being slashed. I sometimes hear the question: What is foreign aid really worth to us? I think it's important to remember that Norman Borlaug was a foundation-funded scientist who didn't do his most important work in air-conditioned labs at Harvard or Johns Hopkins. His breakthroughs came in lean-to shacks in Mexico, where he worked to improve harvests. Without Borlaug's accomplishments, the world would look very different: Famines might trigger migration that destabilizes countries and transforms global politics. The world we have today, where countries like China and India can easily feed their huge populations, is a gift to global stability, to humanity, to America. It grew from the seed of a foreign agricultural support program. If you have questions, observations, or ideas for future episodes, email us at PlainEnglish@Spotify.com.

What would happen if you drank lemon water for 30 days? In this video, we'll look at the benefits of drinking lemon water daily and how a glass of lemon water in the morning can improve your health and vitality. 0:00 Introduction: What happens when you drink lemon water? 0:12 Lemon water in the morning 2:37 Lemon water benefits2:47 Lemon water skin benefits3:57 Lemon water and digestion4:19 Lemon water for the immune system4:48 Lemon juice and your teeth5:18 Benefits of lemon peelWith so much focus on high blood pressure, it's essential not to overlook low blood pressure, which is often due to low blood volume. When you wake up in the morning, your blood volume is lowest. Low blood volume can cause dizziness when standing, poor exercise performance, and a decreased sense of well-being. Plain water in the morning can dehydrate you by diluting essential electrolytes, especially sodium, which is vital for healthy blood volume.Cortisol is highest at 8:00 a.m., and sodium is excellent for lowering cortisol, so salt is a great tool for a stress-free day. Himalayan sea salt is a great option, or try Baja Gold salt if you're prone to high blood pressure. Fresh lemon juice is an excellent source of vitamin C, which is beneficial for the skin and is a potent antioxidant that supports the inside of the arteries. Opt for organic lemons or organic lemon juice. Lemon juice contains citric acid, which helps reduce the risk of kidney stones. Other benefits of lemon water include the following:•Reduces the incidence of gout•Helps phase 1 and phase 2 detoxification in the liver •Helps thin bile and reduce the incidence of gallstones •Supports digestion •Helps regulate cholesterol •Protects the insides of the arteries •Increases microbiome diversity•Potent antimicrobial properties•Increases absorption of non-heme ironIf you drink lemon water daily, it's best to drink it with a straw to protect your tooth enamel. For added bioflavonoids, try blending an entire lemon with a glass of water and a pinch of salt!If salty lemon water is too tart for you, try adding a couple of drops of liquid stevia. For added benefits, you can also add one tablespoon of apple cider vinegar to the mixture.Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.
