From emotional shutdown and avoidance to letting fear quietly run the relationship — this episode breaks down why so many men struggle to lead in love, intimacy, and connection without even realizing it. Instead of blaming your partner, circumstances, or "just not being wired that way," David reveals the deeper truth:

Have you seen the “Grinch prank” video trend? Bad parenting, yes. But also a nod to the conflicts, ancient and modern, embedded in Christmas.  Contrary to what Bill O'Reilly would tell you, there has never been a “war on Christmas.” Rather, Christmas itself has always been a battleground over love, dignity, and resources. What we're really fighting over is who gets care in systems built on scarcity and extraction.

What if this isn't the year you reinvent yourself? What if this is the year you return to yourself, to your own personal strengths, your genuine values, your natural way of working? This first episode of 2025 challenges the pressure to set aggressive goals and push harder. Through examples of creators who grew significantly in 2025 using completely opposite approaches, we explore why there's no single formula for success, only your formula. I introduce three principles for building a lighter, steadier business: making it truer rather than louder, choosing depth over momentum, and embracing small aligned shifts. If you're tired of forcing yourself into someone else's model, this episode offers a refreshing path forward.   Key Moments: [00:00] The pressure of new year expectations: A gentler alternative approach [01:19] Why traditional business advice doesn't work for creative minds [04:52] Doing things your way: Example - Creators with completely different approaches, both successful [08:52] 3 Principles to anchor you in 2026  [15:15] Personal story: how removing rather than adding transformed my floral business [17:05] Three grounding questions for the year ahead   Notable Quotes: "Your business doesn't need to be louder than everyone else's. It needs to be more authentically yours." "Big transformations almost always come from gentle, repeated adjustments. Small shifts, made consistently, in a direction that aligns with your strengths."   Resources Mentioned: Read: This Week's  Full Journal Post Link: The Base Notes Waitlist Subscribe to our Weekly newsletter Website: www.philippacraddock.com Send an Email: news@philippacraddock.com   Share Your Insights: I'd love to hear what you're focusing on this year.

#217 iChange Justice Podcast - The Seeds of Sovereignty: A Lifetime of Indigenous Advocacy with Beth BrownfieldIn this special Happy New Year broadcast, host Joy Gilfilen welcomes her longtime mentor and community icon, Beth Brownfield. As we step into 2026 and our fifth season, this episode serves as a masterclass in how one person's "seeds of justice" can ripple across a nation to change laws, denominations, and heart-centered community policies.The Seed of a 12-Year-Old: Beth shares the origin of her activism—a seed planted at age 12 after reading a heartbreaking paragraph of contaminated smallpox blankets sent by the U.S. Army, especially Plains groups, to control the Indian problem. Years later she takes her heartbreaking first response through her journey from the Pine Ridge Reservation to the Pacific Northwest, sharing the heroic stories of Sue Ann Big Crow, who transformed racial tensions through a Lakota shawl dance on a basketball court, and the losing fight of Alex White Plume to grow hemp under the protection of native sovereignty.The Principles of HONOR: Beth details her work with HONOR (Honor Our Neighbors, Origins, and Rights), an organization that worked, at the invitation of Tribes and Nations to: Honor government to government relationships and tribal sovereignty; Affirm Indian treaties; Honor and protect the Earth; Conduct Ourselves in a manner which is respectful of all people; Promote intercultural understanding and awareness. She explains how these principles were practiced in collaborative work to save Whatcom County from the proposed coal terminal, and why the first official acknowledgment of the "first inhabitants of these lands and waters" was an essential first step to restorative justice.The Doctrine of Discovery: One of Beth's most significant legacies is her work inspired by the work of Lummi, Jewel James and Shawnee, Lenape, Steve Newcomb to repudiate the Doctrine of Discovery. Beth recounts her campaign to move the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA) to pass a national resolution repudiating this archaic legal framework used to dominate the Original Nations and Peoples, their lands, and resources. Beth describes her methodology as being a "Johnny Appleseed" for justice—planting seeds and letting them take root through the work of community action. She leaves us with a powerful call to action for 2026: "If everyone plants “seeds” as they pass through the world, and picks up the garbage in front of them, we could change the world."

Are you chasing every gold star, climbing every ladder, and nailing every "right" mark—only to find yourself missing out on real fulfillment and meaningful connection? The relentless pursuit of achievement can sometimes leave us feeling lonely, disconnected from ourselves, and trapped in relationships that don't truly nourish our hearts. When ambition runs amok, the cost may be far greater than just burnout or missed vacation days—it can lead to self-abandonment and relationships that feel more like a cage than a home. In this episode, you'll discover how overachievement and perfectionism can sabotage our capacity for genuine connection—and what it takes to turn things around. Through honest storytelling and practical insight, the conversation explores the hidden costs of self-abandonment and the steps toward reclaiming self-worth, authenticity, and aligned love. Whether you're feeling the grind of burnout or yearning for more realness in your relationships, you'll gain tools for slowing down, getting honest with yourself, and opening up to relationships that feel like home. Coach Keren Eldad is an Executive Coach, Speaker, podcast host and the Author of the new book: GILDED - Breaking Free from the Cage of Ambition, Perfectionism and the Relentless Pursuit of More.   Episode Highlights 06:18 The roots of self-abandonment: Overachievement and relationship choices. 09:12 Societal pressure and the pursuit of external validation in partner selection. 10:27 Personal story: From self-betrayal to reconstructing identity and worth. 16:07 Building healthy love: The learning curve toward self-connection in relationships. 20:39 Embracing uncertainty: Letting go of control and playing to win in relationships. 26:56 Yellow flags in relationships: Burnout, overfunctioning, and sexless marriages. 31:29 Radical honesty and initiating difficult conversations. 35:51 Centering yourself before addressing relationship issues. 39:54 Tools, coaching, and the path to authentic relationships.   Your Check List of Actions to Take Pause and self-reflect: Practice taking a mindful pause before reacting in relationships to better understand your true feelings and needs. Identify your patterns: Bring awareness to tendencies like overachieving or people-pleasing that may be impacting your connections. Prioritize self-worth: Work on recognizing and affirming your own worth, rather than relying on external validation or achievement. Start small conversations: When something feels off in your relationship, gently broach the subject with curiosity rather than jumping into confrontation. Read for growth: Incorporate reading transformational books by thought leaders to cultivate self-awareness. Seek support: Consider working with a coach or therapist to dig deeper into your personal growth and relationship patterns. Practice radical honesty: Begin being radically honest with yourself about what you want and how you feel, as self-abandonment only perpetuates dissatisfaction. Accept uncertainty: Learn to embrace the unknown in relationships, allowing space for vulnerability and authentic connection rather than controlling outcomes.   Mentioned Gilded: Breaking Free from the Cage of Ambition, Perfectionism, and the Relentless Pursuit of More (*Amazon Affiliate link) (book) Mating in Captivity: Unlocking Erotic Intelligence (*Amazon Affiliate link) (book) The Way of Integrity: Finding the Path to Your True Self *Amazon link (book) Dare to Lead (*Amazon link) (book) Marry Him: The Case for Settling for Mr. Good Enough (*Amazon link) (book) The Work of Byron Katie (website) Brene Brown (website) Eckhart Tolle (website) Ram Dass (website) Louise Hay (website) ERP 494: Designing Love That Lasts: 6 Principles for Lasting Connection — An Interview with Dr. Sara Nasserzadeh ERP 174: How to Experience More Love in Your Relationship with Byron Katie 12 Relationship Principles to Strengthen Your Love (free guide)   Connect with Keren Elded Websites: KerenEldad.com Facebook: facebook.com/LiveWithEnthusiasm?_rdc=1&_rdr# YouTube: youtube.com/channel/UCgGViwGVn_yrHkq3PQ9R_-Q Instagram: instagram.com/coachkeren/?hl=en LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/keren-eldad Podcast: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/coached-with-coach-keren/id1467079024

Standing at the Edge of a New Year with Giants in Your Path? Discover Seven Biblical Strategies to Conquer Your Greatest Fears in 2026. Few things unsettle a parent’s heart like the uncertainty and challenges a new year can bring. When the calendar flips and giants—finances, relationships, health issues, parenting worries—seem larger than life, how do we stand firm in faith and lead our families with confidence? In this empowering New Year’s episode of Christian Parent/Crazy World, Catherine takes listeners on an honest and hope-filled journey, asking the crucial question: "How do you conquer the giants staring you down in the new year?" Drawing from her own season of transition—relocating her family, homeschooling five kids, navigating empty nesting, and facing financial mountains—Catherine shares seven unshakeable principles for slaying the giants in our lives, straight from Scripture and her own experience. From recounting stories of friends facing enormous trials to sharing her own “embarrassing” moments of doubt and panic, Catherine models vulnerability and practical faith. She reminds parents: Your giant is real, but your God is bigger.

Andreas Köstenberger Interview Redux Here are two of our interviews with the great Andreas Köstenberger. The first part was discussing his book in response to Bart Ehrman that we did on the show. The second being a join interview with Andreas Köstenberger and his co-author Gregory Goswell on their amazing Biblical Theology book.

SPEAKERS Evan Nappen, Teddy Nappen, Speaker 2 Evan Nappen 00:14 I’m Evan Nappen. Teddy Nappen 00:16 and I’m Teddy Nappen. Evan Nappen 00:18 and welcome to Gun Lawyer. So, 2026 is just about upon us, and what’s really great to do at the beginning of the year is to take a look at your own security for yourself and your family as we start this new year. And as you know, it’s dangerous out there and you know, we’re gun owners, and we believe in defense and self-defense. There are things we need to do that include guns, but also don’t include guns when it comes to evaluating your own personal security, which is something that we all should be very concerned about. So, when you want to think about your security, particularly in your home and through your life, there are two ways to divide security. You have what is electronic security and then what we might call physical security. Evan Nappen 01:25 So, electronic security would include lighting, alarm systems, and cameras. That kind of security falls into, you know, surveillance and warnings and illumination and really is reliant upon electronic security. In terms of physical security, we have gun safes and other safes, dogs. Dogs are a form of physical security. Locks, good locks, good bars on windows where it may be needed. And of course, our firearms are the last resort of our physical security. And the idea is to have an excellent combination of both physical and electronic security. You want to cover all the bases to give you a full security umbrella. And, of course, combined into all this is your mental state, and for that, I would highly recommend Jeff Cooper’s “The Principles of Personal Protection”. You’ll gain insight into your daily life and what you need to do to have awareness and those principles. Evan Nappen 02:58 But these areas of electronic and physical security are very critical, especially today. Also, you know, electronic security, a lot of it, combines computers and our cell phones, too, as well. And so, with what’s available today, it’s kind of amazing, because it is very reasonable to have camera surveillance. I Page – 1 – of 10mean, you know, a number of decades ago, if you wanted to have cameras on your property, protecting your home, etc, it was tens of thousands of dollars. It was basically not within reach of average people to have that kind of surveillance. But now, with the advent of the internet and with these smaller, amazingly effective cameras, you know, particularly Ring and other companies, you can absolutely have great, actually, camera surveillance better than decades ago with the equipment that existed then, and for just a fraction, a fraction of the price. I mean, every person should have at least a Ring doorbell or some equivalent to that, so that you know who’s coming to your door. It films motion and those individuals that may approach, and not just individuals, but also animals, cars, and other things. This is a really great advance in modern-day technology, not just in what it does, but in the amazing, reasonable cost that you can get it done and accomplished for. Evan Nappen 04:58 Of course, there are other cameras that can work into your floodlights. Floodlights that also record and are motion driven and part of the system, the alarm system itself, which is great. Very easy to self install and put in a Ring alarm system. And they work very well. And you know, not to have an alarm system in your house with the availability of just a Ring alarm system or something else for electronic, you know, other brands too, that are out there, Simply Safe and others, is really a serious mistake, because you can get yourself and your family electronic protection at a very reasonable cost today. I mean, look, decades ago, you had to hire a professional alarm company. They had to hard wire, and they had to do all the switches, all that. What they have available today is amazing and very effective. It can give you that added peace of mind, and you can combine it with the cameras, both inside cameras outside cameras and other motion detectors. Evan Nappen 06:07 All kinds of things are out there that you can do yourself pretty darn easily and give yourself the protection. You want to combine that protection with good lighting. Lighting is also very important. Lighting helps discourage theft and other bad people. It illuminates them, and also the camera records them. It can also give you advance warning of individuals that come into your perimeter by both the camera surveillance and by the alarm itself. I mean, you know, you go to sleep at night. You have your cameras, and you turn on the perimeter of your alarm. You’re protecting yourself and your family. And you know that the physical security becomes important. You have the good locks. You have your valuables stored in safes. You hopefully have your dog or dogs, and you have your firearms. When you have that gamut of protection, both electronic and physical, you know that you’re maximizing your ability to defend yourself and your loved ones. These things today can be accomplished at a very reasonable cost, and there’s really no reason that an average person cannot have security that decades ago would have been tens of thousands of dollars. This is the new world. Evan Nappen 07:45 And not only that, it combines into apps on your phone. You’re able to control your alarm away from your home, turning it on and off. You can see what activity is going on. You’re able to look at the cameras. You don’t have to even be at your house, and you can surveil and see and get notice. It is really an amazing time when you consider what’s available in electronic security and in physical security, with the better locks, enforcers that can be added to doors. Things that can be not even as obvious, but adding tremendous security. And this is a mindset, folks. It’s a mindset for the new year. Page – 2 – of 10You should do your own security evaluation of your home and your property. Look to see if you have bushes or trees that block the view from the road, where persons can break in through a window and not be seen. Look at your lighting. Take a look. Is it lit up? Well, look at your cameras and the angles and areas that are covered by your outdoor cameras, by your floodlight cameras. Look at where you have cameras inside your home. Now, you want to be aware of your own privacy, and that’s very important. But there are places in your home that you don’t frequent all the time, basements, garages, etc., where you can have cameras to even provide interior protection should an intruder come in. These are things to consider in the full picture of your security. Evan Nappen 09:26 And if you’re able to have a dog, let me tell you, dogs can make a huge difference. You know, in surveys they’ve done on felons and criminals and such, they ask what they’re most afraid of? Well, the number one thing that criminals are afraid of is an armed homeowner. That’s right. Number one thing they’re afraid of is a homeowner with a gun. So, right there is an important deterrent factor. The second thing that felons, criminals, etc. are most afraid of is two dogs. Believe it or not, two dogs really freaks them out. That gets their attention. But even having one dog is very important, because dogs bark. Dogs are keenly aware. Their senses are better than yours and mine, superior. And dogs are an alert system. I know of cases, actual cases, where individuals were looking to do a hot robbery and, even worse, commit murder, just to randomly kill, and they went to canvas homes. And homes that had dogs they avoided, and they hit the home that didn’t have a dog. It wouldn’t matter if the home they came to had a little yapper that was barking, they avoided that home just because of the dog being there as an alert system. So, dogs are very important, very critical. I would highly recommend having a dog. The other thing is dogs, you know, they are loyal, and depending on your type of dog, most of the dogs designed for security, will happily give their life to save yours. And dogs can buy the time in between the bad guys wanting to harm you and your family, for you to get to your gun to have the ultimate protection. Evan Nappen 11:42 So, these are things you need to consider when you look at your own security and your own physical security of yourself and your family. At the beginning of the year, it’s a good time to think about it and figure how secure are you? Ask yourself, how secure are you when you go to sleep at night? Do you feel secure? Do you have camera surveillance? Do you have alarm surveillance? Do you have a dog on the lookout? Do you have your firearms? Do you know how to use them? Are you trained? And do other members of your family understand how to use these things as well? Think about these things. I want all my listeners to be safe and protected, and these are things that can help you and may make the difference. So, stay safe in ’26, folks. It’s going to be an interesting year, that’s for sure. Evan Nappen 12:36 And with the Big Beautiful Bill kicking in, with no more NFA tax, and with very interesting court cases proceeding, we may be able to enhance our security even more with guns and accessories that the Second Amendment oppressors have tried to stop us from having. So, stay tuned. Teddy, what do you have for us today? Page – 3 – of 10Teddy Nappen 13:07 Well, as you know, Press Checks are always free, and this is something that kind of came up as I was flipping through. This is actually an issue. We kind of talked about the whole idea of defensive property. So, this is out of Pennsylvania, from Kinship News by Petrana Radulovic. (https://www.kinship.com/news/pennsylvania-pets-are-family-divorce) Pennsylvania House passed a bill saying pets are family members, not objects. I’m not joking. Evan Nappen 13:45 Well, pets are normally viewed as property. Teddy Nappen 13:47 Yeah. Evan Nappen 13:48 Now they’re declaring pets to be family members. Teddy Nappen 13:53 Yep, the article talks. Evan Nappen 13:54 Can I take them as a deduction on my income tax? Teddy Nappen 13:57 I don’t know. This is the thing, though, it opens up that gate. Well, it may just might because in Pennsylvania, the House passed a new bill classifying pets as living beings that are generally guarded as cherished family members. In the bill. Evan Nappen 14:17 Cherished family members. Teddy Nappen 14:19 During divorce proceedings. There’s the caveat. Evan Nappen 14:23 Oh, okay. Teddy Nappen 14:24 It’s House Bill 92, and it passed with 121 over 82. Now going for the Senate. The argument was that the statute for special category for companion animals, where judges would then be legally required to consider the welfare of the pets when it comes to which individual gets custody. (https://pawprintoxygen.com/blogs/healthy-paws/pennsylvania-pet-custody-law-update) It’s literally taking. Page – 4 – of 10Evan Nappen 14:49 Well, some people are very attached to our dogs. We get very emotionally attached. Teddy Nappen 14:55 But it takes the whole stage of who gets the dog to a whole new level. Evan Nappen 15:00 Yeah, I guess it does. Well, maybe you can request visitation for your dog. But the problem is, well, it could be beneficial, because if it’s viewed that way, and gun owners defend their dog from harm. It’s actually may, down the road, maybe raise it to the same as protecting a human. So, that given how emotionally attached we are to our dogs, that defending our dog, you know, but it also, you know, basically it’s John Wick. It’s the entire premise of John Wick, huh, when it comes to that, as to your dog being harmed. Teddy Nappen 15:49 Well, I look at it as the slippery slope where they say it’s a fallacy, but in actuality, just because the amount of things that have opened the floodgates, cut to transgender, men can become women. You can cut to any subject where it’s like, well, they didn’t look at the unintended consequences of these actions. Where, right now, it opens that door, where could dogs not be considered property. Could you defend your dog in a self-defense? And funny enough, right out of here, out of USA Carry, it was a whole article by Brian Armstrong. “Can you use deadly force to protect your pet?” And it was one of those where he brings up a variety of scenarios where, generally speaking, if someone’s attacking your dog, you can’t just shoot them. Evan Nappen 16:41 Right. Because the dog is property, and yet, maybe we’ll see that turn around if dogs start being treated as family members under the law. But it does open it up to, well, if we start treating them as people, then how can you know, what if you have to put your dog down? Like you can’t take your kid to have them put down, right? Because that’s a person. But what about a dog or a cat, etc.? And by the way, why are we excluding cats? Do cats get covered under this, too? Cats aren’t going to be considered family members? Teddy Nappen 17:19 It says pets, so I guess dogs and cats. Evan Nappen 17:20 Oh, so wait a minute. So, any pet? Teddy Nappen 17:26 Any pet. Like my pet rock, my pet Scorpion. Evan Nappen 17:29 See now it starts to open up. Gerbils, horses, right? Page – 5 – of 10Teddy Nappen 17:37 It’s one of those. But. Evan Nappen 17:38 My pet alligator. My comfort Gator. Teddy Nappen 17:42 However, I do look at some of the positives. I know we had this whole back and forth on the right of defending property, and I think this could open things up for that. Where people could have the right in using lethal force to defend property. It’s one of those that I would like to see them iron that out more. Even in the article, he was bringing up scenarios where you could have that situation. He brought up, like a man’s walking down and you see a dog attacking your dog, and where you have that idea where you’re technically trying to defend property, from the, you know, you can shoot like wild animals attacking your dog. Evan Nappen 18:20 Well, in some states, they have laws allowing you to shoot dogs that are wild, that are feral, that attack deer, etc. Some of that’s out there, but you know, normally, though they’re viewed as property. And if we’re going to start giving them status as humans that can cut both ways. It can be problematic too. Because if an individual then shoots a dog, they may face penalties as if they shot a person. Teddy Nappen 19:01 I know. Your very first case. This is the exact issue, actually. Evan Nappen 19:04 Exactly, exactly, exactly my very first case. And, yeah, well, I don’t know. Because, you know, I haven’t discussed that in a while. Maybe I should actually tell that story here, because it is a classic of one of the earliest cases. Teddy Nappen 19:26 A tale as old as time, one might say. Evan Nappen 19:29 Yeah, this is in another state, other than New Jersey. My client was shooting coyotes out his bedroom window at three o’clock in the morning over a bait and a light, which was perfectly legal in the place where he was doing it, believe it or not. But, unfortunately, there was a dog that belonged to a neighbor that lived, not really that close, but the dog, apparently, that night, decided to run with the homeboys. You know, with the coyotes. And my client, inadvertently, shot the dog thinking it was a coyote. And what he would do is he’d shoot the coyotes and leave them there so that other coyotes came and he’d shoot them, too. He didn’t go out there to retrieve dead coyotes. Well, anyway, that night, after shooting the dog, unbeknownst to him, there’s this banging on his door. A woman is there holding her dog that’s been shot. And she’s like, you shot my dog, you shot my dog. And he’s like, oh my god, I had no clue. I had no idea. I’m sorry. I’m so sorry. Page – 6 – of 10Evan Nappen 20:37 And she’s all bent about it. I mean, I can understand, you know, who wants to have their dog shot? On the other hand, she should not be letting her dog run around loose. So, she calls the police, and the police come. The police say, hey, lady, we’ve told you a half a dozen times not to let your dog run loose. So, too bad. Your dog was shot, but it’s not criminal. Goodbye. Well, she’s not to be deterred, and she calls Fish and Game. Well, it so happens that there was a Fish and Game law that had relatively recently come out about shooting a dog. If you shot a dog while hunting or any other way, you were required to call it in that a dog was shot. Anyway, this Fish and Game Officer decides to be the white knight for this woman who’s hysterical and charges my client with shooting the dog and not reporting it, etc. Now, of course, it was reported because the police had come. So, it was reported, but it didn’t stop them. Evan Nappen 21:47 So, anyway, the charge moves into the Municipal Court. We bring a motion not only based on the facts, that he arguably did have it get reported because the police came, but also that this law was, in effect, a violation of his Fifth Amendment, because it was requiring self-incrimination in mandating this reporting. And when I put this through the Fish and Game Officer who in this state, they would prosecute their own cases, a couple things. He had actually gotten sick and tired of this woman who was just incessantly hysterical and just couldn’t get over this. And he had, I think, had enough of that, and realized that we were in a constitutional area on this new law, and that there actually was arguably a reporting. So, he dismissed the case without us having to actually have the hearing. Evan Nappen 22:56 And so with the case dismissed, I walked out of the court with my client, and I’m explaining to him how he can get his gun back from the Fish and Game Officer. And this woman comes running out of the courtroom. She’s at the top of the courthouse steps. She has a dozen pictures of the dog in her fists, and she’s waving them around. She’s screaming and yelling. She comes running down the steps, and she starts pounding my client on his chest with these photos of the dog, and screaming, you killed my dog. You killed my dog. And he kind of falls backwards. I’m there, and I just try to give her a command to stop. I said stop, you know, stop. Stop that. Back off, right? Trying to just command her to stop. At which time, she turns and she points her finger at me with a fistful of dog pictures, and she says, and you his mother fucking fat attorney. At which time I said, how dare you call me an attorney. And right then and there, the bailiffs grabbed her and arrested her. They took her away. My client, I’m saying him, are you okay? Are you okay? Because he’s still on the ground, and he goes, yeah, I’m okay. Man, I’m just laughing so hard I can’t get up. So, that is the famous dog shooting case. True story. Evan Nappen 24:39 And anyway, well, Teddy, we’ll see what happens about dogs taking on human status. But I want to mention our good friends at WeShoot. Teddy Nappen 24:52 It could be a voting block. Page – 7 – of 10Evan Nappen 24:54 Yeah, it could be. I wouldn’t be surprised since the Democrats are losing their illegal alien voting base. Maybe this is part of their plan. Maybe we got to get dogs to vote. But they might, who knows? Dogs are pretty smart. They probably wouldn’t vote Democrat, except for maybe some poodles. I don’t know. Sometimes they’re pretty smart, too. Maybe they’d go the right way. Teddy Nappen 25:17 A lot of golden retrievers. Evan Nappen 25:19 Yeah. Well, yeah. Well, what do you think about that? Well, goldens are pretty good. I don’t know. I don’t want to be insulting to goldens. Teddy Nappen 25:25 They’re very loving, but they’re very stupid. Evan Nappen 25:27 They are. Oh, my god. Do you know how much hate mail you’re gonna get for saying that? We love all dogs. Teddy Nappen 25:34 I’m not saying I don’t love them. I’m just saying, like golden retrievers are so. Evan Nappen 25:35 Well, they better not be only, only Democrat Golden Retrievers. We will not. Teddy Nappen 25:42 German, the German Shepherds, though, those are crazy smart, where they were open, you know, the door. Evan Nappen 25:47 The Dems will claim that the German Shepherds are fascist, racist, of course. You know, extreme right. I could just hear it. Oh, God, this is gonna get off the charts. Well, let me mention our good friends at WeShoot, who is, of course, our favorite range. Where we, you and me, Teddy. We shoot there. We train there. We got our CCARE certificates there, and lots of other good training. Great pro shop, great range. They’re located right there in Lakewood, New Jersey, right off the Parkway. Easy access. Great folks. Great environment. State of the art range, great pro shop, and a fantastic website. Go to weshootusa.com, and you can check out their website. They have all kinds of great specials and sales, and they send out news alerts and bulletins letting you know about all kinds of special deals. And actually, their emails are excellent. Even their communication is excellent with WeShoot. WeShoot members, they love we shoot, and I know you’ll love it, too. So, check out WeShoot. Pay them a visit. You’ll see why we shoot there, and you’ll see why it’s one of the finest ranges and best resources for gun owners right there in Central Jersey. weshootusa.com Page – 8 – of 10Evan Nappen 27:22 And I also want to mention our friends at the Association of New Jersey Rifle & Pistol Clubs. They are the premier gun rights defenders for New Jersey. They’re there in the courts, fighting as we speak. Fighting right now, in that Third Circuit Court of Appeals on the Carry Killer Law, assault firearms, and magazines. It’s great. We’re going to see some awesome results. I’m very optimistic here. We’re going to finally see New Jersey put in its place by the judiciary. This is great stuff. We can thank President Trump for that. Many of the judges that he has been, both his first term and second term, they’re making all the difference when it comes to enforcing and protecting our Second Amendment rights. And the Association is there litigating in federal court. They also have a full-time paid lobbyist in Trenton. Please make sure you join the Association of New Jersey Rifle & Pistol Clubs. anjrpc.org ANJRPC is the premier organization, folks, and when you belong to them, you’re going to get email alerts as to the shenanigans going on in Trenton, as to the progress in the litigation. You’re going to be on top of things and be able to take action as needed. So, please join. Make sure you’re a member. Evan Nappen 28:58 And let me also shamelessly promote my book, New Jersey Gun Law. It’s the Bible of New Jersey gun law, and if you don’t have a copy, you’re at a severe disadvantage, because it is the best anti-GOFU medicine there is. My book is written to protect law-abiding gun owners, to teach them what they need to know to try to remain law- abiding in the extremely challenging state of the Democratic People’s Republic of New Jersey. So, get your copy of New Jersey Gun Law by going to EvanNappen.com. Evan nappen.com. It’s the big orange book. It’s over 500 pages with 120 topics, all question and answer. Scan the front cover QR code there and join my private subscriber base. It’s private, and you will get email updates. You’ll also be able to get access to the archives. You’ll get email alerts from me as the law changes. Go to EvanNappen.com and get your copy today. Evan Nappen 30:08 So, speaking of GOFUs, what do we have this week for GOFU? Well, I’m going to tell you. We were just talking about security at the beginning of the show, but, you know, you’ve got to be careful with your own security. Because you don’t want to have GOFU if you’re using cameras. You want to be careful about your own privacy. You want to be careful about what you film. And yet, sometimes by not having cameras, you can be put at a disadvantage, and that can be a GOFU. So, the importance of your cameras can help you in a situation of self- defense, because it can demonstrate that you were justified. But at the same time, if you acted wrongly, it could be a problem. But since you are only going to act properly, it will end up documenting in video what occurred, and this has made the difference in cases that I’ve had where there have been Ring and other video that exculpate. That’s a fancy legal word for essentially proving or demonstrating innocence. Exculpating the client from certain charges. Evan Nappen 31:43 So, the GOFU can be a GOFU if it’s not used properly, but in this instance, the GOFU might become the opposite, an advantage, when used properly. So, consider that when dealing with your security situation, and think about the scenarios that you may have to deal with in how you place and distribute your cameras and your alarm. And how you take care of your guns and your dog and how you maintain physical security, by securing your firearms when they’re not being used, etc. These are all important considerations as you begin this new year, so that we can all stay safe. Page – 9 – of 10Evan Nappen 32:34 This is Evan Nappen and Teddy Nappen reminding you that gun laws don’t protect honest citizens from criminals. They protect criminals from honest citizens.

Welcome to the Podcast of Southwest Bible Fellowship in Tempe, Arizona. WHO ARE WE? • We are a group of people who are committed to living the grace life as set forth by the apostle of the Gentiles, the Apostle Paul. • We come together to study our Bibles, and yes, we believe we have God's perfect Word in the King James Bible. It and it alone is our final authority in all matters of faith and practice! • We do not come together and study our Bibles for the intent of being smarter than others. We understand that knowledge for the sake of knowledge is purely vain and serves no Godly purpose. • We do come together and study our Bibles for the intent of knowing our Lord Jesus Christ and the power of His resurrection. (Philippians 3:10) • We do come together and study our Bibles to understand that we have been crucified with Christ; nevertheless we live; yet not us, but Christ liveth in us: and the life which we now live in the flesh, we live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved us and gave himself for us. (Galatians 2:20) • We do come together and study our Bibles to understand that because Jesus Christ shed His blood for us and we should not live for ourselves but for Him, who died for us and rose again. (2 Cor. 5:15) • We do not claim to have attained to these lofty goals, but we press toward the mark of the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

Het verschil tussen agnosticisme en atheïsme is in onze bespreking niet duidelijk uitgewerkt. Een agnost meent dat het niet met zekerheid te weten is of God al dan niet bestaat. De realiteit geeft alleszins geen aanleiding om het bestaan van God aan te nemen. Misschien bestaat God, maar z'n bestaan kan je uit feitelijkheden niet afleiden. Een atheïst ontkent resoluut het bestaan van God. Kort samengevat: Het agnosticisme gaat over de onzekerheid van kennis over God, en het atheïsme over ongeloof in het bestaan van God.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This is the last Sunday of the year and we want to end it with a BANG! Are you ready? Let me ask you, what did you prioritize this year? Nothing wrong if your answer is, family, finances, health, travel, education or even sleep and rest. We can do all these things to glorify God, IF it is done from a Kingdom perspective. Today I want to share with you from the treasures of God's Word 3 Principles of Kingdom Priorities. This is a word that will set you up for Kingdom Success in the coming year in every area of your life. This is NOT a name it claim it message, but recognizing God's provision and promise and staying in His care by Kingdom living.

This is the first day of Kwanzaa, a celebration of African American culture and heritage along with seven guiding principles, such as unity, purpose, and self-determination.

Plus, my conversation from August with Denver musical artist Such, whose passion to help others has been a guiding principle in her life. 

They didn't chase an exit. They designed alignment.  Drs. Ed and Lisa Wentz built successful practices: Ed a 10-practice orthodontic group, and Lisa a highly intentional solo practice. But their transition out of practice required something different. A shared filter grounded in faith, family, and stewardship. What they reveal isn't a strategy. It's a mindset that protects marriages, teams, and purpose long after the deal closes. This conversation walks through how they navigated selling, honored their teams, and resisted the pressure to follow someone else's timeline. If you're wondering how to transition without drifting, burning out, or losing alignment, this episode is a guide.

How hard can it be to balance, right? Well, I was humbled pretty quickly! Even if you're a good runner, better balance, stability, and proprioception is going to help you have a more powerful stride and prevent more running injuries. You'll learn how to improve the efficiency of the kinetic chain from your hip to your big toe. Because as Jay likes to say, it's not just how strong you are, but how well you use that strength. I was recently at a weekend physical therapy workshop (lol I was the only running coach) and learned how important (and rare) this simple movement is.

Does the order of your exercises actually matter? Amy Hudson and Dr. James Fisher continue the Series on the Principles of Exercise Design. In this episode, they explain how to structure your exercises for maximum strength and muscle growth. They cover why multi-joint movements deliver the biggest results and how to create a routine that is safe, efficient, and effective for real-world performance. Whether you want to maximize gains, avoid injury, or finally feel confident in your workouts, this episode gives you the insights to build routines that actually work. Dr. Fisher starts by explaining why the order of your exercise routines doesn't matter. Whether you pre-exhaust, post-exhaust, or mix joint movements, the long-term benefits stay exactly the same. That means you can stop stressing about the "perfect sequence" and finally trust that hard work, not order, is what transforms your body. Why do you only see a handful of machines when you walk into an Exercise Coach studio? Because the goal isn't to overwhelm you, it's to give you the safest, most effective movements that actually work. Dr. Fisher explains why he loves the Exercise Coach approach. Every workout trims the fat, no wasted time, no risky exercises, no wondering if you're doing something that might hurt you tomorrow. You walk in knowing everything you do is purposely chosen to keep you safe and move you forward. Amy shares why the best exercises aren't flashy; they're smart, safe, effective, and efficient.  How to stop obsessing over the "right" order of exercises. Dr. Fisher makes it clear that the human body adapts beautifully as long as you show up and train with intention. And that frees you from the pressure of perfection so you can focus on consistency instead of overthinking. How a personal trainer can help you stop second-guessing every machine and movement. Amy and Dr. Fisher agree that, with expert eyes guiding you, you no longer worry about bad form, wasted effort, or doing something unsafe.  Why Dr. Fisher personally prefers starting with multi-joint exercises. They're demanding, they ask more of you, and doing them early just feels better. However, research says you'll get the same benefits no matter what you start with. Dr. Fisher explains the biggest benefit of multi-joint exercises. Learn the application of multi-joint exercises in the real world. Training movements instead of isolated muscles prepares you for lifting groceries, climbing stairs, and staying active as you age. How working with a personal trainer simplifies your entire fitness journey. They help you choose the safest exercises, track your progress, and remind you that your body can do more than you think. That support system turns workouts from something you dread into something you finally enjoy.     Mentioned in This Episode: The Exercise Coach - Get 2 Free Sessions!

There's an author and speaker named Og Mandino. I don't know if he's still around. He wrote about such things, and one of his sayings was, “Never greet the dawn without a map.” I always liked that. Have a map when you wake up in the morning; make sure you plan your day, because if you don't frame how you want your day to be, somebody else will frame it for you. If you don't have your clear priorities for the day, someone will make their problem your priority. Like, if they want you to do something else, if you don't have a valid reason why you have to do your thing—because it's already on your list—then they're going to make you do their thing, and that way your life can get away from you. So, plan your day. It's your day; it's your life. You get to choose where you're going to place your attention. So, plan your day ahead of time. Write it down.Once you have it on paper, you can just say, “Sorry, look at my list. I already have this.” And then set time-bound goals, because when they're open-ended, then everyone thinks—as the Prabhupada said—"I will live for millions of years," but we don't, and our time is short. So it's better if we demarcate an end point to whatever we want to do, even if it's five minutes hence, or five days, or five years. Once you put the ending point, it gives you what's called "forced efficiency." You know you have a certain amount of time. I notice for myself, whenever I'm going on a trip, that's when I get the most efficient: the week before, two weeks before, the day before. I'm focused on what I have to get done before I leave. So, putting time-bound goals makes it imperative that I finish what I want to do. Of course, you have to be careful to plan in some time for yourself too, so you're not always pushing—because we may need some balance in our life, right?

What if the words you use could change the way you breathe? We welcome author Saori Okada back to share the heart of her new book, Wisdom of Japan, a collection of 60 concise concepts designed to calm a rushed life and rekindle everyday meaning. Saori opens up about crafting short reflections that still feel true, and the painstaking process of pairing each idea with a ukiyo‑e print so the art deepens the lesson on the page.We journey through kokoro—the Japanese view of mind, heart, and spirit as one—and how that unity reframes courage, intention, and integrity. From yutori (spaciousness) to the proverb isogaba maware (hurry slowly), we explore practical ways to escape the spin of constant busyness. Saori brings tenderness to setsunai, the ache of nostalgia that proves we have loved well, and shows how kachou fuugetsu—flower, bird, wind, moon—invites nature to become a daily mentor for perspective and creativity.The conversation also traces wisdom from martial arts. Bushido's yu (courage) and gi (righteousness) remind us that strength without ethics is empty, while ki (energy) threads through language and training alike—think genki as “foundational energy.” Principles like shin‑ki‑ryoku‑no‑ichi (harmonizing heart, energy, and strength) and judo's flexibility over force offer a humane blueprint for leadership and personal growth. Along the way, we unpack shoshin (beginner's mind) and shoganai (acceptance) as tools for resilience that don't require hardening your heart.If you're craving a gentler pace with more clarity and depth, this conversation offers simple practices: a page each morning, a breath under the open sky, and a renewed respect for the space that makes meaning possible. Grab Wisdom of Japan at Waterstones, your favorite indie bookstore, or Amazon. If the episode resonates, follow the show, share it with a friend, and leave a quick review—what concept will you practice this week?

A Garden Chat with Don TitmusGreg Peterson and Don Titmus reconnect for a November Garden Chat focused on reviewing the ethics and principles of permaculture and how they apply beyond gardening into daily life. Drawing from decades of hands-on experience in arid and temperate climates, they explore observation, working with nature, stacking functions, and regenerative design. The conversation weaves together philosophy, practical examples from Phoenix and North Carolina, and reflections on how a Permaculture Design Course (PDC) can fundamentally reshape how people think and live.Our Guest: Don Titmus grew up in London and at age 16 spent 4 years being trained in horticulture through an apprenticeship and a college course. From there he continued landscaping in his hometown until he moved to Arizona in 1981, where he worked in landscaping and then starting his own business in garden maintenance. In 2003 he attended a Permaculture Design Course, which was life-changing for Don. He knew right away that this was the path he'd been waiting for, and later attended two Permaculture Teacher Trainings.Key Topics & EntitiesPermaculture ethicsPermaculture principlesObservation and designWorking with natureElements and stacking functionsZones (including Zone 0 / self-care)Regenerative and edible landscapesDrylands permacultureRainwater harvestingPerennial systemsPermaculture Design Course (PDC)Bill MollisonDavid HolmgrenUrban Farm PodcastBee Oasis (Mesa, AZ)Key Questions AnsweredWhat is permaculture, in simple terms?Permaculture is the art and science of working with nature—observing natural systems and designing human habitats that align with ecological patterns rather than fighting them.What are the core ethics of permaculture?Care for the earth, care for people, and care for the future (often expressed as sharing surplus). These ethics guide every design decision and ensure long-term sustainability and reciprocity.Why is observation considered the foundation of permaculture design?Spending time observing land, climate, wildlife, and human patterns prevents costly mistakes and reveals opportunities to work with existing energy flows rather than against them.What does it mean that “the problem is the solution”?Challenges—such as excess heat, water runoff, or waste—often contain the seeds of their own solutions when reframed through thoughtful design.How do elements and stacking functions create resilience?Each element in a system (trees, chickens, compost, water systems) should serve multiple functions, increasing efficiency, reducing waste, and strengthening connections across the whole system.What is a Permaculture Design Course (PDC), and who is it for?A PDC is a globally recognized 72-hour introduction to permaculture principles and design, tailored to local bioregions and intended to transform how participants think about land, community, and life systems.Why take a PDC in your own bioregion and in person?Local courses address climate-specific realities, and in-person learning builds community, shared experience, and deeper understanding through hands-on practice.How can permaculture principles apply beyond gardening?Permaculture offers a framework for life—informing health, relationships, work, energy use, and even practices like yoga—by emphasizing connection, care, and intentional design.Episode HighlightsPermaculture as a life framework, not just a gardening...

In this episode of "Women of Impact," Lisa Bilyeu welcomes Dr. Orion Taraban, psychologist, YouTube creator, and author of the bestselling book "The Value of Others." Dr. Taraban brings a refreshingly candid — and sometimes controversial — perspective to the complex world of romantic relationships, power dynamics, and emotional safety. Together, they pull back the curtain on common traps women fall into, how to recognize manipulation (especially from narcissists or cluster B personalities), and the essential mindsets needed to reclaim your relationship power once and for all. Dr. Taraban and Lisa set the groundwork by tackling why no one can technically manipulate your emotions — unless you allow them to. This is essential listening for anyone looking to understand how to protect themselves while dating—or simply elevate their personal relationships to a new level of autonomy.

On this episode of American Potential, host David From talks with Senator Jon Husted of Ohio about one of the most urgent—and least addressed—threats facing America: the out-of-control federal debt and the lack of any requirement to balance the federal budget. Sen. Husted explains why nearly every state, including Ohio, must balance its budget while Washington continues deficit spending that has produced a $38 trillion national debt and over $1 trillion in annual interest payments—more than the entire budget of nearly every nation on earth. He shares why past balanced budget efforts have failed, how his Principles-Based Balanced Budget Amendment would work, and why a 10-year runway and a two-thirds vote for emergency deficit spending make his approach both realistic and necessary. The Senator also breaks down the connection between federal overspending, inflation, higher interest rates, and the affordability crisis hitting families nationwide. He explains why Americans across the political spectrum are ready for fiscal discipline—if they can trust Congress to actually follow through. A must-listen for anyone concerned about America's financial future—and what it will take to secure it for generations to come.
