The Good Samaritan. Billy Graham Classic Sermon. ACU Sunday Series. When no one else would stop to help the man beaten by robbers, the Good Samaritan had pity on him (Luke 10:33). In the same way, Jesus shows us mercy and promises to care for us in our time of need. “He sees you as an individual,” Billy Graham said. Hear about the profound love of Christ for you in this 1979 sermon from Halifax, Nova Scotia.

In 2021, Netflix released His Dark Material, a Christmas stand-up special by Irish–British comedian Jimmy Carr. The show sparked international outrage. Toward the end of the set, Carr delivered what he called a ‘career ender' – a joke about the Holocaust, in which he described the Nazis' murder of thousands of ‘Gypsies' as a ‘positive'. The Holocaust Memorial Day Trust, the Auschwitz Memorial, and the UK government condemned the joke as ‘appalling', ‘abhorrent', and ‘racist'; Carr, critics said, was trading on the ‘last acceptable form of racism'. Comedy touches every part of our lives. We tell jokes at the pub, around the dinner table, and by the office coffee machine. We all know someone who makes us laugh – and someone who seems to take things too far. But is there a line when it comes to humour? And if there is, who gets to draw it? Should we suspend our moral judgements when the lights go down and the curtain goes up? Or do jokes, like most speech acts, carry moral weight? To answer these questions, we need to understand the nature of comedy itself – what exactly it is we're responding to when we laugh. Humour might be a release of nervous tension, a playful disruption of expectations, or – more troublingly, if it applies to Carr's joke – a means of asserting social superiority. No doubt, comedy has the power to shape our culture and perceptions. But, as we'll find out, it also tells us something about who we are, who we ought to be, and the things we value most.

refuted claims that its men ‘man-handled' SaharaReporters publisher, Omoyele Sowore inside cell after the media personnel honoured the invitation sent him from the office of the Inspector General of Police, IGP over allegations of forgery and criminal defamation of characters, with the Police stating in a press release signed and made available after the detained media publisher was released on Friday night that Sowore allegedly brought bandages alongside other personal items when he came to the station to honour the police invitation, and when the IGP ordered internal investigation to ascertain if truly the media publisher was tortured as claimed, Sowore refused to allow medical personnel from the Nigeria Police Force check the alleged injury on his hand he had claimed he suffered as a result of the police personnel brutality while inside cell, meanwhile, as at the time, Sowore was released on Friday night, bandages were still seen wrapped around one of his hands as seen in the video while he was coming out from the IGP Rapid Response Team, IRT police detention facilities in Abuja as stated by Sowore in the video. #OsazuwaAkonedoSowore Allegedly 'Man-handled' Inside Cell

Sowore over alleged forgery and defamation of character, adding that, some police officers from the IGP monitoring unit as early as 6am on Thursday entered Sowore cell at the Force Intelligence

®August 7, 2025 5:57 am Anambra is no doubt one of the states in Nigeria experiencing incessant and very high rates of kidnapping that in some cases do lead to the death of the abducted victims and killing of security operatives and some other persons around the scene of the mostly monetary crimes of hostage taking for a ransom, specifically, our crime reporters gathered that there is hardly no week without one or two persons being kidnapped along the Onitsha-Owerri Federal road in Anambra state, especially between Oba community and Ihiala town, as we gathered that, most victims of kidnapping in the state are hard working small and medium-sized business owners who most of whom struggled out of poverty to become wealthy successful traders, this, we learnt, there maybe no wealthy successful business owner along the Ihiala-Orlu road left to be kidnapped or forced to pay ransom to the kidnappers, while in Oba, wealthy people are being kidnapped quietly and ransom in millions are paid in silence to the kidnappers, according to members of the community, a young successful businessman was kidnapped recently at a location between the Oba New Road and Old Road junctions shortly after he visited his building construction site, while we also learnt that some people in the state do report or contract their friends to kidnappers just to get a share from the ransom that will be paid afterwards or when such people have issue or dispute with their friends or co-traders, it may interest you to know that, the Anambra State Police Command recently arrested a 24-year-old male suspect, Muanaenye Victor, for allegedly luring his friend to be kidnapped by his criminal gang in Uli, Ihiala local government area of the state and they reportedly collected a ransom in dollars equivalent to ₦5.3 million with his gang members, just as gunmen in a not too long distance time, abducted a lawyer and two other persons in Nkpologwu, Aguata Local Government Area of Anambra, in addition to previous cases of kidnapping of the owner of De Porsche Club, Chief Ebere Orji by unknown gunmen after the gunmen killed numbers of persons along the new Oba-Nnewi road in Idemili South Local government area of Anambra State, with the number of those killed at the Porsche Nightclub said to be seven but one of the security operatives was beheaded, and another had his foot cut off and made away with by the invading deadly kidnappers, this occurred shortly after, a well known native doctor or witch doctor, Chidozie Nwangwu a.k.a Akwa Okuko Tiwaraki was kidnapped, after his two personal aides killed in the vicinity of his hotel at Oba community before the kidnappers effortlessly took him away and was released after ransom in millions were reportedly paid, that not all, on May 21, 2022, shortly after Professor Chukwuma Soludo was sworn in as governor, gunmen abducted the lawmaker representing Aguata 2 Constituency in the state House of Assembly, Okechukwu Okoye, Okoye, also known as “Okey di okay”, represented Soludo's state constituency, Isuofia, Okoye was killed and beheaded alongside his aide, Cyril Chiegboka, six days after they were abducted along Aguluzigbo Road, Anaocha Local Government Area of the state, and their heads and bodies dumped along a roadside in the state, and in December 2024, another lawmaker in the state House of Assembly was kidnapped and killed, and the victim, the lifeless body of the member representing Onitsha North 1 Constituency in the Anambra State House of Assembly, Justice Azuka, was found along the 2nd Niger Bridge, with Azuka's lifeless body, said to be already decomposing was found by a joint team of security operatives 44 days after he was kidnapped on December 24, 2024, along the Ugwunaobankpa Road in Inland Town, Onitsha, while returning home for Christmas, and the most prominent among the incessant cases of kidnapping in the state, is Martins Onyekesi well known as Fish Magnet, the kidnapping and subsequent killing of the young small business owner sparked protest and public awareness like never before, with a social right activist, Martins Otse a.k.a VeryDarkMan coming to the state earlier on Sunday and led a protest walk on Tuesday which was tagged Candlelight Procession march in honour of Fish Magnet, one of the most recent victBecome a supporter of this podcast:

Clive is a fancy man who writes a fancy Christmas newsletter every year to tell everyone about all the fun things he did this year. And every year, Joe gets this letter and it just makes him mad. He goes to talk to his wife and complain about how they never do anything. They're alive but they aren't living. We find out that he met Clive in elementary school because Clive was his pen-pal. It was immediately clear that they were from different worlds. To make matters worse, he ends up getting fired. He dreams of having to live on the streets and he wakes up the next day which I guess is Christmas day and tells his wife that he cashed out his 401k so that they can really have a year to remember. They're gonna ski. They're gonna go to the Bahamas. They're gonna see Tigger Woods. Up first, a very bizarre sleigh ride. His wife is not thrilled. And he caps it off by telling her that they're going to Clive's big birthday bash next summer.The hits keep coming - they go to a fancy place for New Year's Eve but I guess his suit isn't good enough. This leads to him accidentally pressing the button to drop the ball too early.The movie continues to be Joe & his family going on outings and it not being what they thought it was. His wife is like I'm not having fun, but he gaslights her into continuing along with the plan. After many many issues, he decides to delete the document he had been working on. But after getting the new letter from Clive, he finishes his letter. His wife tells him if he sends the letter, there might not be a we anymore. He ends up at a bar where Kristoffer Polaha is. And he gives him the same advice his wife gave him all year - his life is pretty good. No need to lie. It's Christmas Day and we see his wife getting a lot of calls about how amazing their Christmas card was. She's very confused.

August 11-17I used to look forward to the tail end of our Thanksgiving and Christmas feasts in Missouri because my Dad, a brilliant and world-renowned geologist and geological engineer, and Darrell Ownby, part of our family and a world-class ceramic engineer, and Nord Gale, a celebrated, favorite professor and brilliant microbiologist and Harold Romero, also a brilliant physicist, would stay at the table and discuss deep gospel questions. Many times, the conversations would go way over my head, as they talked about creation, celestial worlds, spirit elements, atomic elements and the qualities of light—but I tried to follow along as best I could. Hey, I was only 12 years old! But this was the beginning of my yearning, thirst and hunger for knowledge. I could not get enough of it. These discussions around the table were amazing. And then I was introduced to Section 88 of the Doctrine and Covenants. I was blown away. This deep water is the subject of our podcast.

638. Part 1 of our interview with Lori Peek about her book, The Continuing Storm, which she wrote with Kai Erikson. More than fifteen years later, Hurricane Katrina maintains a strong grip on the American imagination. The reason is not simply that Katrina was an event of enormous scale. But, quite apart from its lethality and destructiveness, Katrina retains a place in living memory because it is one of the most telling disasters in our recent national experience, revealing important truths about our society and ourselves. The Continuing Storm reflects upon what we have learned about Katrina and about America. Kai Erikson and Lori Peek expand our view of the disaster by assessing its ongoing impact on individual lives and across the wide-ranging geographies where displaced New Orleanians landed after the storm. Such an expanded view, the authors argue, is critical for understanding the human costs of catastrophe across time and space. Concluding with a broader examination of disasters in the years since Katrina—including COVID-19— The Continuing Storm is a sobering meditation on the duration of a catastrophe that continues to exact steep costs in human suffering.

For Jason's 48th birthday, we held an in-person sales workshop event for property management business owners in Orlando. What he didn't know was that his wife, daughter, team, and clients had a surprise for him! In this episode of the #DoorGrowShow, property management growth experts Jason and Sarah Hull discuss what Jason has learned in the last year in business, relationships, and life, and what he's looking forward to in the next year.

Just a bunch of property managers about to take over the whole industry. That's what I feel like us and our clients are really going to do is we're going to dominate the entire industry.   Hi everybody. So I'm Jason Hull and this is Sarah Hull, the founder and CEO of DoorGrow and the COO of DoorGrow, co-owners.

We want to transform the industry, eliminate the BS, build awareness, change perception, expand the market and help the best property management entrepreneurs win. All right, now let's get into the show. All right, so today is   June 30th, which is my birthday. So some of you may see this later. You may see the recording later. We'll broadcast it live later, because that's what we do now. But it's my birthday today. And so we were thinking like, Happy birthday to me. So I am 48 years old. Sarah surprised me. We came out to Orlando.   to do a sales training event to teach our clients on the new model of selling stuff that we've been doing, to teach them my framework, the golden bridge formula, which I am now just starting to work on writing a book about that I think could revolutionize sales. And she surprised me by having my daughter, Madi who's our head of client success, be here.   and our clients be here the first day we got in, which I didn't expect. And they said surprise and they surprised me and we all hung out and it was very cool. And so I appreciate that. And so we were thinking like, what should we talk about today? my suggestion was let's talk about the last year and how things are different for you and then what you're hoping for in the next year.   So yeah, reflecting, so we actually do our planning year at DoorGrow starting on July 1st, not because of my birthday on June 30th, but because we want to offset it by two quarters because kind of trying to reach end of the year goals and hit your goals and strive towards success and winning as a company doesn't really work out super well at during the holidays when everybody's focused on family and Christmas and stuff like that. And so we offset it.   And so that we're hitting the end of our planning year in the middle of the summer, which really allows us to focus on things, get excited about new things and our upcoming plan. And so this is the end of our planning year. And it's also end of the next year of my life here on the earth. And so this is a good opportunity to reflect just on like what have we accomplished in the last year. And we've made a lot of changes at DoorGrow, so   What are some of the things that we've accomplished at DoorGrow in the last year? I think one of the big things that we did is we added more to the onboarding and now we're doing some of the onboarding with clients in person. So it used to all just be, you know, kind of talk with us and meet with us on Zoom and talk with us on Telegram and, you know, watch some courses on DoorGrow Academy.   And there is still all of that. And then of course you get your one-on-one meetings with coach for the first couple of weeks and we walk you through everything and make sure that you have access and make sure you know where to find everything and that you can log in and you know how to use it. And then there's another part of it that we bring you guys out to the North Austin, Texas area and we do a one day deep dive into your business. And that that's been a big shift.   We have been doing that for just about a year now Yeah, it's really there's something we've noticed and I call it the real bubble there's this bubble or this perception that we have to burst that the internet zoom calls videos like this are not real life and We have to break that or burst that bubble and connect them to us being real people because we're actually real people   Like you can fist bump us, hug us, give us a high five, give us a hug. Like we're real people. But until we pass that barrier with our clients, we've noticed they don't get as good of results. They don't absorb the content the same because this is not real life in their mind. So videos in DoorGrow Academy. so yeah, the in-person onboarding has been a really big deal in allowing us to really get to know clients better, to connect with them.   get people breakthroughs, usually we can offset the cost of the whole program, maybe even in that first in-person session. So that can be pretty powerful. And it's really increased our retention rate. It's really allowed us as coaches to keep clients more engaged and have them stay a lot longer. Yeah, and I think it makes us a lot more accessible to people. Because until you meet us in person, it's like, you can message us any time.   Sometimes people feel a little weird about doing that. Sometimes they don't know, am I allowed to do that? Or should I reach out? Or no, I don't want to bother them with that. But it's just so much more personal once you meet us in person. then it's like there's so much more of a deeper connection and relationship. And then people go, ⁓ yeah, they'll know the answer. I can talk to them at any point. And then they really start to leverage that resource.   So yeah, we've spent the last several years making a lot of improvements to our program. And I think the last several years, this last year, we've really put a lot of attention on lead generation, on focusing on how to actually grow our business now that we've got the program even more well dialed in and figuring out how can we reach more people. And ⁓ even just recently, we got some really strong breakthroughs in how I think we could help a lot more people.   a lot more quickly and just optimizing our sales process, which I think is just, I'm really excited about. Like I'm really excited about the stuff that we're rolling out and that we're doing at DoorGrow. Personally, man, I feel like this has been a big year of growth for me personally. A lot of changes. I feel like our relationship has evolved a lot. Like it's been, you know, I think coming into a new relationship.   and we've been together, we've known each other for total maybe what did you say today, six years? He's listening, yeah, almost six years. Almost six years. I'm bad with dates, stuff like that. yeah, almost six years. so, yes, we've known each other for a little while, but I feel like I'm just now starting to get clarity on some of the things, my own issues, some of the things that have helped me back, some of my own insecurities, some of my own challenges.   This year has been a year of me really learning and growing in relationship. I feel like quite a bit as well. But I think one of the things I've noticed in you, especially over the last year, is you   you shift much more easily into leadership at home with the family. Okay. Yeah. I think I've put a lot of study into the masculine and the feminine and just recognizing my role as being a leader and being willing to lead. And I think that allows you to feel lot safer and calmer.   in the relationship. yeah, yeah, for sure. Which also makes me feel a lot safer and calmer in the relationship. And so I think there's a lot of men that you see out there complaining about women. You see a lot of women complaining about men. And I think really, I really do believe that men really are meant to lead in that. And that leading doesn't mean controlling. It doesn't mean bossing people around.   Leadership is about inspiring others to be willing to support and follow you. And I think men are meant to be leaders. Like if they don't step out and be leaders, I think it's men's responsibility. And so if men are complaining about women, well, it's your fault guys. And if women are complaining about men, you're right. It's the men's fault. That's how I view it. Women, women. So it's your fault no matter what, men. Yes. Like, yeah.   Because if men really stand up and they really lead and they're meant to be leaders and they're not waiting for women to change and trying to hold their breath till women change and they change, I believe that if they lead and they take responsibility and they work on themselves, women in their life, if the women love them, will follow and they will allow these men to step into leadership because that allows them to feel safer and to calm down and to like...   relax into the feminine. And so I think for a lot of men it's about shattering their own feminine frame and there's a great book on that I read that really kind of changed things for me that is called Shattering the Feminine Frame by Jerr J-E-R-R. I thought that was a brilliant book. I've given it to some guy friends and that were kind of in that feminine frame of that. And the feminine frame for guys is that they're trying to please, they're trying to please their partner, please their girlfriend, please their spouse.   They're trying to please everybody else. And in that state of pleasing, they become unsafe to everyone around them. They're not leading. And it's not appealing or generally attractive to most women when a guy's in that state. So that's something that I've shifted more into in stepping more into the masculine and stepping more into leadership. And   The thing I think that's key that I understood from that book and his other book, which is called The Wall Speaks by Jerr, J-E-R-R, this philosopher. The other basic principle is that men really need to believe in themselves. Like if they believe in themselves, a lot of times men were trying to get belief from our partner. Like I love when Sarah believes in me. It's everything. Like men are constantly trying to get women to believe in them. It's the thing we crave.   However, if a man is always trying to place his locus of control for belief and power in his woman, then the problem is she now feels unsafe and she's way less likely to believe in him. And so I think one of things I've realized is that I have to believe in myself. I have to believe in me first. Even if it's unrealistic or crazy, I have to have unrealistic.   impossibly amazing self-belief. And if I believe in myself, then everyone around me believes in me too. And if they don't, it doesn't matter anymore. If I believe enough in myself, either everyone else will go, my gosh, this person's amazing. I believe in them too. I want to follow this person. I want this person to lead me, they won't and you won't care because your self-belief is so strong.   And so I think it's really important for guys to develop that self-belief and not try to put that onto their partner. Because that's a really big burden for me to throw on your shoulders. Well, and I think for women, I can't speak for all women, but for myself, it's really hard to have belief in someone or something that isn't confident in themselves. So if I'm more confident in you than you are in you, there's a problem.   At least I do, like we can tell. We can just tell. yeah. Women can smell weakness because women are kind of born from birth, like having to deal with fear and having to deal with the dangers of society and men and difficulty things and whatever. Like men, we're not afraid to walk down the street generally.   We're not worried about somebody hurting us. Like we're generally the stronger half of the species, you know? And we just, don't have that mindset. We're not like looking for safety in a lot of instances. The thing we're looking for, physical safety, what we are looking for a lot of times is emotional safety. And we try to create that by pleasing. And maybe if I'm nice enough, she will be kind and it usually works out the opposite way.   because women want to test our strength and they want to test us emotionally, see if we are stable enough to support them and to handle them. And if we do, we kind of pass that unconscious test that they throw at us that they now can lean into us and feel safe and go, this man is a rock. This man is stable. I can have my feminine emotional waves of things going on and he is still that stable grounded rock that I can, know.   I can lean on. So that's been a big deal for me is to kind of take back that locus of control because I'm on my third marriage. This is like, I spend a lot of years thinking the game was happy wife, happy life, and I have to please my partner. And that becomes a really uncomfortable game if you have an unpleasable partner. And a lot of times by trying to please your partner, you end up doing the opposite. Like it makes them feel less and less safe and less and less pleased. And they want you to just step up and lead and plan some date nights and like...   make some decisions and let them actually relax and be in the feminine occasionally, right? And Sarah has to step into her masculine a lot in business and in work. And so I think being able to come home and being able to sometimes with me relax into the feminine is probably feels good. I don't know. Yeah, there are times and I think in every relationship you can kind of figure out what are the things that each person prefers to handle.   So for me, there are certain things that even if he did it, I would still want to go back and probably redo it or there would be things that I would have to confirm or check on because I wanted exactly a certain way. And if it's not, you know, exactly the way that I pictured it in my head, then I'm just not going to be satisfied. And then I'm going to feel like man, I should have just done it myself. So if you have those things and it can be anything, you just kind of have to figure out, what are the things that each partner wants to do?   and really what are the things that each partner can rely more on the other one for. Like every time we travel, my brain would not be able to handle it if he handled the travel details. Like booking the dogs and booking the hotels or the Airbnb, like where we're at right now, the Airbnb, or getting the flights and figuring out rental cars and all of the things. I just, I...   First all, it's fun for me to do that. And second of all, I wanted a very specific way. There's a right side of the airplane for me to sit on. It happens to be the right side. So if he books the ticket and then he puts me on the left side of the airplane, it's not that it's wrong, but it's sort of wrong. By the way, I upgraded our flights on the way home. And I got you an aisle seat. And I'm next to you.   because I know you love that and we're on the right side of the play. Okay, so you did it the right way. That's good. So there you go. So part and you know, part of that is also getting to really know and care about your partner. Like I take a lot of notes. I've got a lot of notes in my notes file. I have a whole folder in my notes app on my iPhone called Sarah. So I think I have like 80 notes in there. Yeah, that's how complex you are. So yeah, because I study her because you know, I want to win the game.   win the game of marriage and of life, but part of winning the game is not just being a pleaser and trying to please all the time. It's also recognizing my own boundaries and my own needs emotionally and being willing to ask. That's been a hard thing for me. That's really hard for you, which is so interesting because I don't feel like that's something that I struggle with. What I struggle with, I struggle with asking for help. I am not good at asking people for help.   because the way I grew up, it was viewed as weakness. If you need help, it's because you're weak. If you need help, it's because you don't know how to do it. If you need help, it's because you're less than. You're not good enough, you're not enough, you're not smart enough, you're not strong enough. It's whatever it is. So for me, it's so hard to ask for help. So my ways of asking for help are instead of directly asking or especially nicely asking, the way that most people would say,   Hey, could you please help me with this thing? Like I can't, I just, I can't seem to bring myself to ask that way. So I'll start to do something and then hope that somebody picks up on the cues that I'm giving, like sighing, like, like I'll wait. There was like a big, you know, case of water that I'm carrying. Like I'll carry everything else or I'll try, like try to go pick up the water and can I do it myself? Yes, of course I can.   But it's nice when your partner goes, hey, you know what? Do want me to help you with that? I'm like, yes, yes, I do. Because then I didn't have to ask. So I'm not good at asking for help, but you're not generally good at asking for what you want, which is really interesting. Because when I want something, I'm very good at just saying, and I don't generally ask, I just state it. It's more of a statement. I want this, I want that, I don't want this, I want this. So I'm very good at saying, this is what I want. I'm not great at asking for help, but you're...   really not great at asking for what you want. Well I think part of that is I grew up in this really conservative religious culture in which you were kind of the the right way of being was to self-sacrifice and to serve others and do it wasn't about what you want it was about taking care of everybody else and doing what God wants and what others want and it was not about what you want. And so I think that that   But if you don't ever ask for what you want or do things or try to get what you want out of life, then you end up depleted. You end up miserable. You end up frustrated. You end up wondering why nobody cares about you and other people might. They just can't serve you or reciprocate or benefit you if you don't ask them for what you want. And I mean, you know, it's it's so simple that sometimes I make such a big deal about it. But if I just ask you for something.   You're just like, okay, and then I get what I want. And it's, it know it's like magic, it's crazy. I know, it can be that simple. It's really weird when you ask for someone and then you get the thing that you asked for. I know, and then asking for help is difficult for you, but it's the secret thing for like, for women. Like, I have to ask somebody to help me do a thing that I should be fully able to do by myself. So especially if you're an attractive woman, it's so easy. You don't even have to ask for help.   You can, if you ask for help, everybody will give it to you. But if you just state how you feel about something, the person around you that cares will just step in. Like guys, we wanna be the hero. Like if she just says, my gosh, these water bottles are so heavy. Like I can tell she's feeling that away about them. Then I would just be like, my gosh, let me take care of this. Like I'll just step right in. Like that's the magnetic energy of women.   man it'd be so nice if these water bottles were just put away. That's a little obvious, right? It's like my way of asking. That's a really obvious way of doing it. It'd be so nice if I didn't have to do at you like, really? Okay, I can take care of this. Yeah, but see, there's a way that you can do it, right? That makes me feel honored and like, and there's a way that makes me feel nagged, right? Like if you were like,   I'll get the water bottles myself. I'm like, my gosh, I'll take home and and then I'm like Whatever she is So then yeah, so then I'm like that but then if she was like, my gosh, these are so heavy who can help me You know, I'm like, ⁓ damn's a little distress. Here comes your nine shining armor. I got it I'll take these water bottles   do with this water. so heavy. Let me come help you. But even if that's not real life, don't know real life. If women share, if they have a man that actually pays attention to them and cares about them, if she shares how she's feeling about something, not like to put him down, but saying this thing is causing me stress or I'm worried about this or it's really bothering me that there's this thing, then guy will want to step in and save the day. We just want to do, we would much rather save the day.   than be nagged to do something. That's like very easy. Like, so you don't even have to ask for help. If you ask for help, like obviously, if you're like, oh my gosh, could you please help me these water bottles, you big strong man. I'd be like, absolutely. Like, let me do this. Like, yeah, I would think I'm so great. That's like, that's the superpower. Like women have that superpower. You can just like, we wanna, we just wanna take care of you. So that's, I think that's been a big thing this year is kind of.   stepping a little bit more into recognizing the differences in masculine and feminine and being able to step into that. And gosh, what else this year? What I think you touched on it very briefly, but I think one of the things you've been a lot better at recently is setting boundaries. That's been interesting. Yeah, I read a book about boundaries and it   kind of gave me a breakthrough. I thought boundaries were about this is what I'm willing to tolerate and I need to control other people. And I think that what I read about boundaries though that kind of shifts in my thinking is that boundaries are not about saying what the other person needs to do or should do or shouldn't do. It's about figuring out what I will do and what I will do if people act a certain way. Because boundaries are about setting your   locus of control, not trying to control somebody else. It's about you being in control of you. And so figuring out here's what I'm comfortable with and if things are gonna go this way then I don't wanna be part of this or I'm not comfortable. So I think there's been a little bit of setting boundaries. I think though there's also been a heavy for me challenge in kind of resetting expectations boundaries. I grew up in a very conservative culture.   where the women did not, you're not really supposed to talk to other men if you're a married woman. Yeah, oh I know. And so that to me, it felt like Sarah was always trampling on my boundaries because she's like, this year you've really gotten into flying. And so she's spending hours alone with a guy, a dude in an airplane. And that's something like I've had to instructor is a male. Yeah, yeah. And so that's been something I've had to get.   I had to challenge those beliefs because that belief was causing me a lot of grief. A lot of times we think the other person is causing the grief. It's usually the belief you have connected that person that's causing. The belief was, Sarah shouldn't be talking to men. Now, I had to question that belief. If you've ever heard of Byron Katie, she's got this great book called Loving What Is, and this whole methodology she calls Doing the Work.   And went through and I did the work on this, which is you question the belief. You take the belief, you figure out what it is, you figure out how do I feel when I think this thought, when I have this belief? Well, then I feel angry and I feel hurt and I feel disrespected and all these kind of things. And so then I take that belief and I question it. Is it true? Is it true that Sarah shouldn't be around men or talk to men? Well, obviously, I can't say that that's totally true because...   We coach clients. We coach clients. We coach men. Yes. lot of our clients are men. Some are women. Yeah. And, you know, she has a pilot that she learns from. And so I recognized I had to find a truer belief. So the truer belief that I got in touch with was because part of the exercise is to turn around. Sarah should be around other men. And I was like, how is that true? Well, yeah.   ⁓ good men will help develop Sarah, good men will protect Sarah, good men will help expand her mind and help her reach higher levels and make her a better person. Good men will, right? And so I was like, okay, so that's true also. So there's this conflict, maybe that's not as true. And then I was thinking, well, if it's good for her to be around other men because they help her teach and they can help her learn and help her grow, then.   you know, then it can be a good thing. It can be a good thing about that. But if that's true, then what is all these feelings that I have? Well, my past relationship, there were a lot of challenges that traumatized me that like would bring up stuff. So then I had to actually deal with that stuff and heal things instead of try to get Sarah to be a certain way to make me feel safe. The other thing I got in touch with working with them,   Men's out there for a second. Yes, I feel like that's something that you do really well that not everyone can do What's that you well, you just did a whole bunch of work on that. Yeah, I mean you acknowledged hey I'm feeling a certain kind of way and is This how I should be feeling and does that belief and does that? Emotion and does that thought system does that actually serve me or is there something that's better and true and I should actually look   at myself instead of projecting that onto other people. And I think that's something that, I mean, you've generally always been really good at that, but I think like this last year, you've done that in a lot of different aspects. And I just wanna like commend you for that because I don't know that everyone can always do that. Yeah, I appreciate that. Yeah, I think that's true. think the fact that you are a high growth minded individual,   and you're reaching big goals and you're moving towards your dreams and you're flying and getting your dream car and doing all the stuff that you're doing. Yeah, mean, if you have a partner that's growing, if you're with them, you're tethered to this roller coaster that's on the move. And so yeah, think that being in relationship with you, I'm a high growth individual too. There's times where I thought I would outgrow you and it would create discomfort, like you wouldn't keep up with me.   And I've always been pleasantly surprised as well. And so I think that's the challenge and the benefit of being in a relationship with somebody that wants to grow when you want to grow as well. It's going to force you to grow in areas that you didn't expect to. And so I had to reconcile all these different feelings that would come up as you're stepping into new ways of being and new areas of growth to figure out to figure myself out and figure out why am I feeling this way and how do I feel about this and.   So yeah, I think that's been really beneficial to recognize that we have great mentors that are great men. Yeah. Right. And how what a shame it would be if I couldn't learn from people like that. And I would love for you to absorb as much as you can from some of these mentors and great men that we know. And and to have a belief that you shouldn't like communicate with men or or pair off with a guy or whatever. There's like that would make   flying pretty difficult or you'd to find a female pilot instead of the best most women don't like me. Maybe a lot of women don't like you, I don't know. It's hard. So I think, yeah, I think there's been a big year of growth in kind of figuring out that and figuring out what my needs are and, you know, my, mentioned I have a coach that coaches men. She's a woman and so I'm spending time with her, right?   And she's helping me to get insight and understand some of the things that are my challenges so that I can grow and develop and help me understand how this really allowing you to grow benefits me. You're a much more fun and playful, even feminine person as you get into the state of play in life and being able to do the things that you enjoy doing and flying planes and having dogs and all of the stuff that you love to do.   All right, well we have a few minutes before we wrap up because we've got your birthday dinner to go to. yeah. So before we end then what are you looking forward to in the next year? Well I'm really excited. I feel like I have been on a really strong personal trajectory for growth in the last year and I feel like our relationship has gotten a lot deeper. I feel a lot   safer and more connected. There's always been this kind of subtle anxiety from the previous traumas and the previous stuff that I'd gone through and relationships and stuff like that. And I feel just like, I feel like I finally understand you. Cause there was a lot of friction related to that previous thing thinking Sarah doesn't understand men and doesn't understand the dangers of men, doesn't understand the boundaries of men. And that Sarah   doesn't have boundaries towards men. So we had conversations about this, because this also allowed me to bring up my concerns. And then you shared, you're like, no, like this is how I would handle this. This is how I feel about this. This is how I would never do this. And like this sort of thing. so whereas before it felt like we were kind of playing this tug of war rope where I was trying to get you to be more respectful in relation to not.   being around men or communicate with men without me or something and you were trying to not feel controlled by this domineering husband. And so we're like, er. I like double down. That's what I, that's my fun game I like to play. Yeah. So we were both kind of misunderstanding each other. And so it's been a lot nicer to be able to recognize, ⁓ we really have a lot more in common related that and healthier boundaries. And we both really value the relationship.   And that's allowed me to feel a lot safer and for you to finally understand me and be able to communicate what's going on with me for you to understand that. And then my coach that I'm working with to say, hey, it's OK for you to have these feelings and have an issue that you need to work through and to go to your partner saying, hey, I could use some reassurance with this, but not to go to them with accusation and then they resist, right? To go to you and say, hey,   I'm feeling away about this and I'm getting all mixed up in my thinking or it's getting more than I can handle and I'm freaking out. You know, can you like reassure me and like if I communicate that way, then you can help me through that. And then it reduces the need for that because then I'm in a state of safety. Whereas what we were creating before was kind of, it was snowballing into more and more anxiety in me because of that tug of war. so, yeah, so I'm really excited in the next year.   how our relationship will develop even more. I feel like we've grown so much and I feel like we've got really big goals that we've connected with in the business. Just even in the last few weeks. Just even the last few weeks that we're planning to do that really can take DoorGrow to the next level and really have it dominate and benefit the industry. And we've got some big, big enemies we want to go after. We've got some big goals that we want.   To do we've got some big impact we want to have to make a difference and you know And it's been just so rewarding to be able to connect with clients about this and get them thinking it with a bigger vision as well So I think I truly feel like if you're not involved in DoorGrow You're going to miss it like you're gonna miss the bus like the the bus is taking off soon like it's going Get on it   But I feel like, that was one of my comments on Jeremy's post the other day. He's like, just me and 12 of my best friends having lunch. And I was like, yeah, no big deal. Just a bunch of property managers about to take over the whole industry. That's what I feel like us and our clients are really going to do is we're going to dominate the entire industry. And I'm super excited for that. Yeah, we just took a trip recently to Mexico. We were part of a big mastermind with some high level thinkers.   And we got some really good mental technology installed in our brain that really was a game-changer for us thinking outside the box with a bigger vision and We're injecting that into all of our clients getting the think bigger and I think we're going to have the most innovative group of property managers and clients ever and I nobody will be able to keep up with innovation and the things that we're all doing because we all have such bigger goals and our clients are little   They're excited. I'm excited. And so I think that DoorGrow is going to do some big things and I think we're going have a big impact, which is awesome. So that makes me really excited because there's nothing better than changing lives. you know, we've got a client named Joy and she messaged me the other day and she said, ever since we met and did our jumpstart session, she says, I'm finally sleeping again at night. And that's like, yeah, that's the stuff. That's way better than money.   You can't buy that. You have to really contribute to others to get something like that. And so that's really amazing. So I'm just really excited to help change some lives and have some impact. that's the next year. well. All right. Well, let's wrap up and go to dinner. All right.

It's here, it's here, it's finally here!  The first major film in the DCG (DC Gunn-iverse, for those not caught up on the latest lingo, like Jay) hit theaters and Superman is back.   The Guys had high expectations and some were met.  Others, maybe not so much.  But they agree that major steps  - especially in the casting - were made in the right direction for DC as the universe gets a reboot. As Art so eloquently put it, hopefulness has been restored to the franchise.   Art is also hoping for a John Carter figure for Christmas (listeners can pre-order now), Jay wants a night light that might also scare away intruders (and/or unsuspecting family members), and Robbie may or may not want a new late night talk show, as one of the biggies has been cancelled.  It's a super episode - or at least The Guys hope so.  

Faith, family, and football...

Hi. Spaff here. Some kids want to grow up to be President or cure cancer. My goal was to get a song on the Dr. Demento Show. I listened to it faithfully every Sunday night, often with headphones so my mom wouldn't overhear songs like "Making Love in a Subaru." In the early 2000s I somehow convinced Robert Lund, a Salt Lake radio personality, to record some of my song parody ideas, all of which I immediately sent to Dr. Demento. On November 28, 2004, he played "I Want Some Plastic Surgery for Christmas." I was giddy. Robert and I have since collaborated on over a hundred songs, and Dr. Demento has played a number of them. I remain giddy. So here's another. It's a tribute to Dr. Demento via a list of songs from the days he hooked me. (Needless to say, he has played countless more effing awesome comedy songs in the intervening years, some of which were created by the people reading this.) It's a parody of "Ripple," a song the Grateful Dead wrote and recorded in 1970, the year Barret Hansen became Dr. Demento. Pass the claret to me, Barret! May you forever stay demented. ~~~ CREDITS: Turns out Robert owns mandolins (plural) and has played them his whole life. Also he sang and played guitar and produced this recording. "Ripple" has lyrics by Robert Hunter and music by someone named Jerry Garcia. Dr. Demento brought all of these comedy songs to our attention, and the legendary titles listed here are the brain children of their various legendary parents. BUT I DID EVERYTHING ELSE.

On Christmas Eve, 1953, New Zealand's holiday celebrations were shattered by tragedy. The Wellington to Auckland night express, filled with passengers eager to be home for Christmas, was making its way north when disaster struck. A lahar (volcanic mudflow) had swept away the Tangiwai Rail Bridge, plunging the train into the raging Whangaehu River below. The result was catastrophic — lives were lost, and the nation was left in shock.It was one of the darkest moments in New Zealand's history. At the time, it ranked as the eighth-deadliest rail disaster in the world and captured international headlines. With a population of just over two million, nearly everyone in the country knew someone affected. The fact that it occurred on Christmas Eve only deepened the collective sorrow. To this day, it remains far more than a local railway accident — it is a national tragedy.Join Gary Kent as he explores the story of the Tangiwai disaster, uncovering its profound impact on the people involved and the country as a whole. In the midst of grief and loss, perhaps we too can find comfort and strength as we reflect on how to navigate sorrow and hardship in our own lives.

Emma was twenty-nine years old—and seven months pregnant—when, in the fall of 1832, their family moved from the John Johnson farm in Hiram Ohio to Kirtland, approximately thirty miles north. Joseph and Emma set up their humble home in the rooms above Newel K. Whitney's store. Shortly thereafter, Joseph left for New York City to buy supplies for the Missouri saints. A little over a month later, on 6 November, Emma gave birth to Joseph Smith III, her fourth child, but the first to survive. Joseph returned from New York City just hours after his birth. Their adopted daughter, Julia Murdock Smith, was eighteen months old. In addition to the family's quarters, Joseph used one of the rooms for an office to complete his Bible translation. Shortly after Christmas, on December 27, Joseph asked nine high priests to join him in his office to teach them about revelation. They each came focused and unified on receiving God's will, and exercising their faith. They each knelt and prayed individually to be of one heart and one mind. Following the prayers, Joseph began to receive the revelation, with Fredrick G. Williams acting as scribe. By 9:00 p.m., the revelation was not finished, so the nine men returned the next day when the Lord revealed even more. These instructions and revelations formed the basis of the School of Prophets, a unique organization meeting to discuss revelation, future plans and challenges faced by this early community of Saints. Join Dr. Lynne Hilton Wilson as she examines these exciting elements of Church history.

Have you ever wondered how a simple cheek swab could save someone's life? In this deeply moving episode, we're joined by representatives from the National Marrow Donor Program who explain how their registry connects blood cancer patients with life-saving donors. Our guest Abby shares her powerful personal journey of receiving a stem cell transplant that cured her cancer, reminding us that sometimes the most profound acts of heroism come from anonymous strangers willing to donate.The heart of this episode centers on the Loopy Looper relay ultramarathon in New Jersey, where three teams of Rise and Run and Will Run For community members gathered to honor their friend Erin. Their stories of perseverance, camaraderie, and celebration showcase what makes our running community so special. From sharing hoagies Lady-and-the-Tramp style to completing the final 3.75-mile loop together while some wore weighted vests, these runners demonstrate that the miles we share mean more than the ones we run alone.We also dive into exciting runDisney news, including a thorough breakdown of the Disneyland Halloween race weekend event guide (just four weeks away!) and spirited discussion about the newly announced Muppets-themed 12Ks of Christmas virtual races. Greg's passionate reaction to the Muppets finally getting runDisney recognition – and his mild disappointment they didn't use the Muppet Christmas Carol – highlights the deep connection many of us feel to these beloved characters.Whether you're training for an upcoming Disney race, considering ways to give back through running, or simply looking for inspiration from fellow runners, this episode reminds us that running creates connections that transcend the miles. Join our community where every step, every mile, and every finish line is celebrated together.Send us a textSupport the showRise and Run Podcast is supported by our audience.

What if death could knock on your door — quite literally — before claiming a life? Would you answer? Would you believe it? And what strange thread connects these events in Wales to a death in America? In this eerie real-life account from 19th-century Wales, a tailor living in a remote farmhouse near Newcastle Emlyn is disturbed by strange and persistent sounds — knocking at doors and windows, ghostly wailing in the night, and an uncanny sense that something is coming. Witnesses hear it too. The knocking grows louder. And then it reaches a crescendo… But the story doesn't end there. In fact, it's only when news arrives from across the Atlantic that the full meaning of these uncanny spirit sounds becomes clear. On this episode, Mark explores a chilling tale of death omens, haunted houses, and the old folk belief that death itself gives warning — if you know how to listen. Explore the lore... if you dare!   ORDER PARANORMAL SWANSEA AND GOWER BY MARK REES: Get Mark's latest "Ghosts of Wales" book "Paranormal Swansea and Gower" now!

The Ghosts and Folklore of Wales podcast explores the eerie world of Welsh ghosts, ghost stories, lore, myths, and legends. Launched by author and journalist Mark Rees (Ghosts of Wales, Paranormal Wales) in early 2020, this weird and wonderful podcast delves into the country's countless curious subjects, blending decades of research from books and articles with long-lost tales from dusty old tomes. From "real-life" encounters with the uncanny to fantastical adventures from the Mabinogion, new episodes are uploaded monthly and feature everything from pesky poltergeists to fire-breathing dragons, with the odd wicked — and not-so-wicked — witch along the way. Alongside the regular stories, you can expect the occasional special guest, live ghost hunts, and all sorts of quirky surprises from a Welsh storyteller with original ideas. Seasonal specials include dark folklore and Gothic Halloween (Nos Calan Gaeaf) traditions, plus everyone's favourite skull-headed Christmas visitor, the Mari Lwyd. Dare you explore haunted Wales? From the sublime mountains and cascading waterfalls to bustling cities and remote farms, journey through the paranormal and unexplained in all corners of Cymru. Think of it as unlocking the Welsh X-Files with some tenuous Ghostbusters references and terrible sound effects along the way!  Be sure to subscribe so you never miss a spooky episode.

Learn more at: 4FreedomMobile.com About our guest: Tom McClintock represents the people of California's historic Sierra Nevada foothills and fertile Central Valley in a district that stretches from Placerville to Modesto, through the Yosemite Valley and on to Kings Canyon. Often described as "the gold standard" for fiscal conservatism in Congress, the National Taxpayers Union rated him the best vote for taxpayers in the House four times, most recently in 2020. Citizens Against Government Waste recently named him as one of the perfect votes in the House fighting wasteful government spending. McClintock is a member of the House Judiciary Committee where he serves as Chairman of the Subcommittee on Immigration Integrity, Security, and Enforcement and also serves on the Subcommittee on the Constitution and Limited Government. He is a senior member of the House Natural Resources Committee where he serves on the Subcommittee on Federal Lands, which he chaired from 2015 to 2018, and on the Subcommittee on Water, Wildlife, and Fisheries, which he chaired from 2011 to 2015. The Congressman is also a member of the House Budget Committee and has proposed major fiscal reforms to curb unauthorized appropriations, control mandatory spending, balance the budget and protect the nation's credit. Prior to his election to Congress, McClintock served 22 years in the California legislature, where he became one of its most recognized conservative leaders. He twice received the Republican nomination for State Controller, narrowly missing election in 2002 by 23/100ths of one percent. He ran as the conservative standard bearer for Governor in California's historic recall election in 2003. - Addison McDowell proudly represents North Carolina's 6th Congressional District. Motivated by the tragic loss of his younger brother, Luke, to a fentanyl overdose, McDowell's top priority in Congress is to tackle the drug crisis and strengthen border security to protect families and communities from the dangers posed by illegal immigration. Addison currently serves on the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, the Natural Resources Committee, and the Budget Committee. Through these committee assignments, he is fighting to make sure the critical needs of North Carolina's Sixth District are met. Prior to Congress, Addison's public service included serving on staff for Congressman (now U.S. Senator) Ted Budd and Congressman Richard Hudson, where he spent each day helping constituents in need. Addison earned his Bachelors of Arts degree in Political Science and Government from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. During this time, he met his wife, Rachel, through YoungLife Ministry. A native of Lexington, North Carolina, Addison and Rachel now reside in Davie County, where they are raising their two daughters and are active in their local church.

How much time do we spend worrying?...

Geek Girl Soup 14.49 – Christmas in July (in August)Special Guest Appearance: Kelly's stand-in, NekoZilla

Becca Tobin from LadyGang joins Stassi as they plan their upcoming dream beach vacay at Ladyworld —despite the fact that Stassi hates sand and Becca thinks holidays are wildly overrated. Christmas? Too much. Birthdays? Too stressful. Hosting parties? Hard pass. The two bond over their shared love of low expectations, laugh about lavish kids' birthdays, and agree that Elf on the Shelf is a parenting scam. Becca spills on Austin's $12K light displays, Stassi defends her Christmas tree obsession, and somehow it all makes sense. They also get real about social media boundaries, mom guilt, and why sometimes the quietest days are the most joyful.Thanks for supporting our sponsors:Progressive: Visit Progressive.com to see if you could save on car insurance.Caraway: Visit Carawayhome.com/STASSI10 and you can take an additional 10% off your next purchase.Quince: Go to Quince.com/stassi for free shipping on your order and 365-day returns.Hiya: Receive 50% off your first order.

Week 2 of our summer Second Helpings and we're travelling back to November 2021 where we had pop princess, Jade Thirwall. Jade came over to mums for her favourite meal, a roast chicken dinner with all the trimmings! Turning up in full glam after a long photo shoot, it was just what the doctor ordered for our girl. She talked about her mum's mince pies - and not the Christmas kind - her penchant for putting crisps in a tuna sarnie, drinking Malibu and always wanting the economy meal on the aeroplane. We discuss her beautiful relationship with the LGBTQ+ community and her obsession with Diana Ross. It's all in there! Thank you Jade, you gem! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

You hear that? It's the bells on Christmas day.
