What happens when a man trained to protect the world's most high-profile figures realizes he can't protect his own heart? In this raw and unfiltered episode of SWAT Radio, Doug McCary and David Gray sit down with Jonathan Stephenson of Warrior Forge Foundation. Jonathan shares his powerful testimony of transitioning from a childhood marked by abuse and a "double life" to finding radical freedom from pornography and sexual immorality. We dive into the staggering statistics of a 97-billion-dollar industry that targets 90% of young men every week and discuss why this "victimless crime" is actually a silent killer of marriages, integrity, and spiritual authority. From the irony of protecting others while living in a secret prison to the life-altering moment of grace on a Dallas park bench, this episode is a roadmap for any man tired of hiding in the shadows. It's time to stop bowing to the screen and start standing as a warrior.

She also shares why the film's character, Nikki, is driven by guilt, motherhood, identity, and the struggle to balance personal purpose with family life.Kyle and Milla also get into the bigger conversation around women in action films and whether Hollywood has truly evolved when it comes to writing complex female characters. It's a smart, candid conversation about filmmaking, physical performance, character depth, and how far the industry has come for women on screen - and how far it still has to go.If you love action movies, behind-the-scenes insight and conversations with the artists shaping pop culture, this one's for you.If you dig the show, subscribe, rate, and share - and tell your friend who's always stealing your streaming passwords.
Send a textIn Part III of the Husbands: Provider & Protector series on Marriage Mondays with The Kings, the conversation continues to explore what true leadership in the home looks like for husbands and fathers.After addressing many of the concerns wives and children have expressed in previous shows—such as emotional absence, limited engagement, and spiritual passivity—this discussion focuses on the full blueprint of leadership that goes beyond simply providing financially and protecting physically.While providing and protecting are foundational responsibilities, true leadership requires much more. A husband's influence is seen through his emotional presence, spiritual guidance, intentional fatherhood, humility, accountability, and willingness to pursue personal healing. When husbands actively lead in these areas—praying with their families, communicating openly, participating in parenting, and setting the spiritual tone of the home—they help create stability, safety, and a lasting generational impact.Providing builds survival.Presence builds legacy.This episode challenges husbands, fathers, and future leaders of homes to step fully into the role of guiding their families with strength, wisdom, and intentionality.Support the show

Even second-rate Pixar is better than most other animated features. The latest offering from the renowned studio is "Hoppers," a unique sci-fi fantasy about a rebellious girl whose mind is transplanted into a robotic beaver in an attempt to save a pristine glade from the bulldozers of shortsighted developers. Excellent animation, sharp voice work and a thoughtful screenplay elevate “Hoppers,” which should hop right to the top of the U.S. box office. The pro-environmental message comes through loud and clear, but the kids will only care about the wacky characters and zippy action. It may be a bit too scary for the younger kids, but "Hoppers" still has the warmth family audiences crave. As the saying goes, you're only as good as you dare to be bad. Give writer/director Maggie Gyllenhaal credit because she dared, but "The Bride!," her gonzo take on "The Bride of Frankenstein," is a cinematic horror...and not in a good way. Credit also to the brave, powerhouse performances from Christian Bale and Jessie Buckley, but their efforts are in service of a mismatched conglomeration of ideas that are as patchy as Bale's stitched-up monster. Don't get hitched to this bride. Milla Jovovich, cinema's queen of backside kickers, is back in "Protector," a truly terrible action movie that plays like a gender switch on Liam Neeson's "Taken." Milla plays a former Special Ops soldier with a very particular set of skills whose daughter is kidnapped by human traffickers. It's sleazy, bloody with klutzy dialogue that even skilled actors couldn't save. Plus, it's got a climatic twist that produces more groans than surprises. Protect your wallet and skip "Protector."

Royal favourites, we want your voice notes in our new miniseries on historical failures. Look out for Producer Al's callout post on patreon.com/thisishistory. It's there where you can listen to this week's bonus episode, where Dan discusses what likely triggered Henry VI's descent into silence, while he also gives a primer on England's warring noble families: the Nevilles, Percys, and Courtenays. Henry VI isn't responding to anyone. Not to his physician, nor to his newborn son, Prince Edward. He's just inert, catatonic. If the king's health is said to be a mirror of the health of the realm, then England's in big trouble (which it is). The Hundred Years' War is on the verge of being decisively over in France's favour. England has lost Gascony, Normandy, and Maine, with only the small Garrison at Calais left. This a full-blown crisis that is usually left to the king to solve, but instead, Parliament decides to make Richard Duke of York the Protector of the realm — angering Queen Margaret and York's nemesis, Edmund Duke of Somerset. Then something remarkable happens: Henry wakes up. – A Sony Music Entertainment production.

We also referenced research and data that highlight the powerful impact of active, present fatherhood.This episode shifts from identifying the gaps to offering direction. Providing financially and protecting physically are essential, but true leadership goes further. Biblical leadership requires emotional presence, spiritual guidance, intentional fatherhood, accountability, and personal healing.We explore what it looks like for husbands to lead holistically — praying with their families, communicating openly, participating in parenting, and creating an atmosphere of safety and stability.

Solomon continues his reflections about life, but shifts his focus from time and eternity to relationships. As he examined all types of societal and relational situations, he concluded that life is best when it is shared with others. In the good times and the bad, we need each other. But he also recognized that even the strongest and best relationships can be fragile and incomplete. No one can fill all of our needs all of the time. God is the only One who can provide perfect stability, help, support, strength, peace, and rest. We should look to Him as our ultimate Comforter, Partner, Companion, and Protector, because only in Him will we find true meaning and purpose.

The Protector (1985) was chosen by Greig, and it stands as one of the more unusual entries in Jackie Chan's filmography — an attempt to firmly break him into the American action market during the mid-1980s. Directed by James Glickenhaus and produced by Golden Harvest in collaboration with U.S. partners, the film was conceived as a tougher, more hard-edged vehicle than Chan's Hong Kong output. The production reflected a clear effort to reshape Chan's screen persona for Western audiences, emphasizing a grittier tone and more conventional cop-movie structure compared to the acrobatic, comedy-infused style that had made him famous in Asia.Filming took place across New York City and Hong Kong, giving the movie an international scope that was relatively ambitious for the time. However, creative differences emerged between Chan and the production team, particularly regarding tone and action style. Chan was reportedly unhappy with the film's direction and later took control of certain fight sequences for the Hong Kong release. Upon its theatrical debut, The Protector performed modestly but failed to fully launch Chan in the U.S. market as intended. In retrospect, the film is often viewed as an important transitional project — a fascinating snapshot of Hollywood's early attempts to package Jackie Chan for Western audiences before his eventual global breakthrough in the 1990s.TRAILER GUY PLOT SYNOPSISOne city on the edge… one cop pushed too far… and one case that's about to explode across continents.When a routine investigation spirals into something far more dangerous, a hard-hitting detective finds himself pulled into a deadly world of crime, corruption, and international danger. Outgunned and outnumbered, he'll have to rely on his instincts, his fists, and sheer determination to finish the job.The Protector — justice doesn't ask nicely.FUN FACTSThe Protector was Jackie Chan's second major attempt to break into the U.S. film market during the 1980s.The film exists in multiple cuts, including a Hong Kong version that differs noticeably from the U.S. theatrical release.Jackie Chan later cited the movie as a learning experience that influenced how he approached future Hollywood projects.The movie features some of Chan's earliest English-language leading-role work in a U.S.-focused production.Many fans consider The Protector a curious hybrid between Hong Kong action cinema and 80s American cop thrillers.The film was released during a period when Hollywood was actively trying to import Hong Kong martial arts stars for Western audiences.Jackie Chan would not achieve major U.S. box office success until Rush Hour (1998) more than a decade later.The movie has developed a cult following among Jackie Chan completists, despite its mixed reception.Some action scenes were reworked for international versions, reflecting different market expectations.Today, The Protector is often discussed as an important stepping stone in Chan's long road to Hollywood stardom.Support the ShowIf you enjoy the show and would like to support us, we have a Patreon here.If you're listening on Apple Podcasts or Spotify, leaving us a 5-star review (and a short comment) really helps more people discover the show.

In a pivotal moment during my daughter's playoff basketball game, I faced a choice that every man encounters: remain a passive spectator or step up as a protector. What started as a simple high school basketball game evolved into a profound lesson about masculine leadership, courage, and the God-given role of men in today's world.Join me as I share the raw story of how speaking up against unsafe play got me ejected from my daughter's game—and why the aftermath left me stunned. Through this personal narrative, we'll explore the critical difference between being a spectator in life and embracing our role as protectors of what matters most.In this episode, we dive deep into:- The moment-by-moment breakdown of a father's decision to speak up- Why the modern pressure to "stay quiet" is damaging our families and communities- How controlled strength differs from passive silence or uncontrolled anger- Biblical insights on the mandate for men to be active guardians- Why one person's courage can awaken the conviction of many- Practical wisdom for knowing when and how to take a standWhether you're a father, husband, leader, or man seeking to understand your role in an increasingly passive world, this episode will challenge and equip you to step off the sidelines and into your calling as a protector.This isn't just about a basketball game—it's about reclaiming the ancient mandate of masculine leadership in a world that desperately needs men to stand up, speak out, and protect what matters most.#ChristianMasculinity #Leadership #Fatherhood #Courage #Protection #BiblicalManhood

Send a textIn this impactful episode of Marriage Mondays with The Kings, we address a belief many husbands carry: “As long as I provide and protect, I've fulfilled my role.”Providing financially and protecting physically are essential responsibilities. However, are they the complete blueprint for biblical leadership? This conversation challenges men to look deeper. We discuss how limiting leadership to income and physical security can leave emotional, spiritual, and relational gaps within the home.Many wives express concerns about emotional absence, lack of partnership in parenting, spiritual passivity despite church titles, and disengagement from daily family life. Children often share that their fathers are present physically but not emotionally available. Research consistently shows that engaged fatherhood significantly impacts children's academic performance, emotional health, and behavioral stability.We also address an often overlooked issue: many men avoid healing. Suppressed emotions, unresolved childhood wounds, reluctance to seek therapy, and emotional withdrawal can affect how a husband leads his household.Being a provider and protector is foundational — but leadership requires presence, spiritual engagement, vulnerability, and intentional fatherhood. This episode calls husbands to move beyond survival leadership and into transformational leadership at home.Support the show
In this special episode of The Check In, Dwyane Wade sits down with his mother, Jolinda Wade, for an emotional and powerful conversation about her life, addiction, redemption, and her memoir Conquering Me. Jolinda opens up about her childhood struggles with self-esteem, her descent into heroin and alcohol addiction, and the homelessness that followed. She shares the defining moment on October 14 2001, her “awakening” when faith led her to surrender and begin her journey to recovery. Now 71, Jolinda reflects on rebuilding her life, moving to California for a fresh start, embracing her role as a proud grandmother, and learning to truly love herself. Her message is clear: you can rewind, you can reset, and you can rebuild. You’ll Learn: How unresolved childhood trauma can shape adult choices What addiction truly feels like from the inside The power of faith and surrender in breaking destructive cycles How motherhood remained her anchor during her darkest years What it really takes to rebuild your life at any age The meaning behind her “three Rs”: rewind, reset, rebuild Jolinda Wade’s memoir, Conquering Me, shares her inspiring journey of courage and transformation.

In Genesis 27, we see what happens when God's promise feels uncertain and His timing feels slow. Rebekah and Jacob believed what God had said, but they did not trust that He would fulfill it without their control, so they resorted to manipulation. Yet despite their scheming, God still carried His covenant forward, proving that His promises rest on His faithfulness, not human effort. Because Christ has secured the ultimate promise, we can trust God as our Provider, Healer, Restorer, and Protector, even when the outcome feels delayed or uncertain.
Feeling like the wheels are coming off your life—or the world? The Year of the Fire Horse is here, and the old paradigm is dissolving fast. For some, it feels like rock bottom. For others, a slow unraveling. This week, Lacy and Jessica unpack the collective stripping, ego deaths, and visibility fears rising to the surface—and why this acceleration is actually a portal into your most authentic self. If you've been stuck in perfectionism, burned out by optimization culture, or clear on your purpose but unable to move, this episode unpacks what's happening beneath the surface. Through the lens of TBM tools, human design, Chinese astrology, and nervous system regulation, they explain why hustle, formulas, and “matrix authenticity” won't carry you into the new paradigm—but why a more aligned, authentic approach will. This season isn't about fear. It's about releasing what no longer fits so something truer can emerge. The real question is: are you ready to stop performing and step into your true purpose?

Welcome to Mysterious Universe, mental ninjas! Come with us as we explore an unexplored land. A forbidden “lost world” to outsiders reported to be inhabited by strange beasts out of time. Legends speak of not one, but several bizarre and terrifying creatures that haunt the Ancient Plateau's of the South American Wilderness. Today we are grateful to cover The Mysteries Of Kurupira - The hidden land of unknown creatures that inspired Conan Doyle's Lost World - By Ben Tejada-Ingram. For Plus+, we wade through an insane theory on the world we live on… or IN. Cyrus Teed's “The Cellular Cosmogony” proposes the idea that we live INSIDE a spherical universe, a self-contained, electromagnetic machine where meaning is inherent to the experience. Whether you buy his model or not, this book more importantly challenges you to question the status quo and the hard-baked narratives we've been given since birth.

The Detroit Lions filled a key staff spot today. Steve Oliver moves from assistant offensive line coach to tight ends coach. The Detroit Lions Podcast breaks down what it means ahead of the NFL Combine at month's end. Steve Oliver to Tight Ends Coach The Lions stayed in house. Oliver earns the promotion after five seasons in Detroit, heading into a sixth. He played at the University of San Diego. Inside Allen Park, he is known for hands-on work with the tackles. That includes Penei Sewell, Giovanni Manu, and Colby Sorsdal when Sorsdal repped at tackle. Continuity matters for this offense. Oliver knows the room. He knows Hank Fraley and the standards on that line. The move keeps the language and teaching aligned for a position group that touches the run game and pass protection on every snap. Assistant OL Opening and Dan Skipper Buzz One vacancy remains: assistant offensive line coach. Dan Skipper is the name to watch. He coached tight ends and offensive line at the Shrine Bowl the day after retiring from the Lions. He knows the scheme and knows Fraley well. That fit tracks with how Detroit builds staff. The goal is a full staff in place before the combine at the end of the month. Programming note from today's update: there will be a daily show on Saturday, no show on Super Bowl Sunday, and then back on Monday. Stafford's MVP and the Detroit Lens Matthew Stafford won MVP in a very close vote. One ballot for Justin Herbert factored into the margin. At 37, Stafford is the oldest first-time MVP. The award strengthens an already robust career case. Detroit fans remain split on Stafford's legacy. Some still celebrate him. Others have moved on. Today's tone was simple: appreciate the validation and the years of production. His moment on the NFL stage, with family in view, underscored the journey. None of it changes where the Lions are now, but it reframes what he did then. Penei Sewell Misses Protector of the Year The NFL rolled out its inaugural Protector of the Year. Penei Sewell was a finalist. He did not win. The award went to a Bear, a result that stung given Sewell's dominance. By most views, he is the best run-blocking right tackle in football, and arguably the best run-blocking offensive lineman overall. Pass protection tilted the vote. There are tackles a tick better in pure pass pro, and that likely cost him. Sewell is steady about it. Use it as fuel or not, the standard remains high. Elsewhere, former Lions head coach Jim Schwartz resigned as the Browns defensive coordinator today. #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #steveoliver #tightendscoach #assistantoffensivelinecoach #hankfraley #danskipper #shrinebowl #peneisewell #giovannimanu #colbysorsdal #matthewstafford #nflmvp #sammonson #justinherbert #protectoroftheyear #jimschwartz Learn more about your ad choices.

What does it mean to truly protect something you love? And, what are you willing to sacrifice to do it? Today's guest has gone farther into the wild than most people ever will, not for thrill or ego, but to defend one of the most threatened ecosystems on Earth. From the depths of the Amazon rainforest to the front lines of conservation, this is a conversation about courage, responsibility, and confronting fear head-on. My guest today is Paul Rosolie, a renowned explorer, conservationist, and storyteller whose life's work is rooted in protecting the Amazon and the creatures that inhabit it.
