Podcasts about Provo

Jake, Julian, Liv and Travis are joined by investigative journalists Abner Häuge and Haley Orion, who traveled to Provo, Utah, to cover the preliminary hearings for Tyler Robinson, the man accused of killing TPUSA founder Charlie Kirk. They report on the conspiracy circus outside the courthouse: Candace Owens fans camping overnight for fourteen public seats, TPUSA influencers begging their own audience to stick to the facts, and innocent bystanders being doxxed as part of theories involving an exploding microphone and the “Maroon Shirt Boys.” The group also examines the anti-trans narratives surrounding Robinson's partner, the harassment of Hunter Kozak and other witnesses, and the struggle over Kirk's legacy as the conspiracy machine runs without interruption.

The Tim Conway Jr Show Hour 3 (7.13) A nasty SoCal heatwave is rolling in with sky-high humidity — we’re all sweating balls out here! Wildfires have sparked but firefighters are working hard on containment. Paris Hilton is back in the news as an advocate fighting to shut down the brutal Provo, Utah boarding school she attended as a teen, though we can’t help missing the old “Simple Life” Paris from the aughts. There’s a vegetation fire called the Zebra Fire burning in Azusa north of the 210, and don’t forget the shirtless nut in East Hollywood who jumped on a Waymo’s windshield, yelling at the sensors and ripping the car apart. In Boyle Heights, residents are dealing with an unbearable rotten stench, flies, and rodents thanks to the 85 million pounds of food rotting at the burned Linear Logistics warehouse, plus a burst water main leaving people without water nearby. On a slightly better note, two corpse flowers are about to bloom at the Huntington Library — those things only flower for 24–48 hours every few years and smell exactly as bad as the name suggests. In celebrity news, comedian Tom Segura and his wife Christina Pazsitzky announced they’re divorcing but will keep doing their podcast “Your Mom’s House” together (that should go smoothly!), while Brad Pitt’s kids Zahara and Maddox took out newspaper ads announcing they’re dropping “Pitt” and keeping “Jolie.”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Links Roots, Relationships, and Results What the Scriptures Say About Leadership | An Interview with Shawn Moon Watch the video and share your thoughts in the Zion Lab community Transcript available with the video in the Zion Lab community Highlights This discussion covers foundational leadership attributes compiled from over one hundred interviews with global leaders across various industries. The conversation focuses on intentional personal development, effective relational dynamics, and achieving meaningful outcomes in family and church callings. 00:03:12 – Sean’s Leadership Background 00:05:00 – Unique Stake Presidency Experience 00:05:57 – Genesis of the New Book 00:08:06 – The Concept of the Last Leadership Lecture 00:12:49 – Interviewing Leaders for Insights 00:14:40 – Themes Emerging from Interviews 00:16:14 – The Importance of Personal Leadership 00:19:05 – Leading Without a Formal Title 00:21:19 – The Power of Gratitude in Leadership 00:29:15 – Practicing Gratitude as a Skill 00:32:05 – The Work That Matters 00:35:10 – Trusting Leadership: Extending Trust 00:40:59 – The Impact of Believing in Others 00:43:24 – Conclusion and Final Thoughts Key Insights The Leadership Arc: True leadership functions across three integrated categories: establishing internal roots of personal leadership, building deep relational trust, and executing to achieve sustainable results. Leading Without a Title: Formal authority is not a prerequisite for impact; some of the most profound leadership occurs when individuals step forward to influence and lift others without holding an official calling or position. Emotional Regulation: Effective leaders act as thermostats rather than thermometers. They actively set the emotional temperature and bring stability to a room during high-stress situations instead of merely reacting to the environment. Gratitude as a Multiplier: Practicing deliberate gratitude serves as a cognitive interrupter that shifts a leader's mindset from defensive, reactionary conflict to collaborative, executive problem-solving. Extending Trust: While being trustworthy is a basic requirement, exceptional leadership requires actively extending trust to others, which fosters their potential and builds long-term confidence. Intentional Time Investment: Human life consists of a finite number of seconds. Leaders must prioritize their weekly focus around essential tasks and specific individuals to build deep, lasting connections. Leadership Applications Implementing the 5×4 Method: Latter-day Saint leaders can organize their weekly schedules by identifying five critical objectives and four specific people to intentionally reach out to and lift up. Expressing Written Appreciation: Ward and stake leaders can cultivate a supportive culture by sending regular, handwritten notes of gratitude to members, validating their voluntary service and building deep organizational trust.

It's Friday, July 10th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Finnish MP, convicted for quoting Bible, denied transit through London airport Finnish Member of Parliament Päivi Räsänen, who was recently convicted by Finland's Supreme Court for quoting the Bible, has been told that she cannot go through London's Heathrow Airport due to her alleged “hate crime” conviction, reports LifeSiteNews.com. Writer Rod Dreher broke the news on his Substack on Wednesday. The incident has not yet been detailed by any other outlets, but Dreher's report was reposted on X by the senior counsel of Alliance Defending Freedom, which has defended Räsänen in court over the years. War Secretary Pete Hegseth publicly prayed to King Jesus on July 4th On Independence Day, War Secretary Pete Hegseth delivered this extraordinary prayer at the White House. Listen. HEGSETH: “King Jesus, we come humbly before Your throne, praising You for all the providence You've bestowed upon this nation. For over 250 years, from George Washington to President Trump, we have dedicated this nation to one nation under God, and certainly, in God we trust. “And as we think 250 years ago to George Washington on bended knee in Valley Forge, appealing to Heaven on behalf of his troops in this young nation. We've appealed to You from the beginning, and may we continue to appeal to You. And tonight, we pray for our President, President Trump. Give him safety, give him wisdom. “Lord, we pray for our Vice President, our First Lady, our Second Lady, the cabinet members here, all the governors assembled here as well, our civil magistrates, Lord God. I ask that You give them the wisdom to see what is right and the courage to do it; wisdom defined as fear of the Lord, ear of the Lord being the source of all knowledge and wisdom, Lord God, Your eternal truths may they rule. “So, this evening, also, I would be remiss if I did not pray for our great troops, our men and women all around the globe, defending our great nation, as they have for 250 years. Lord God, watch over them and protect them. “It is in Your holy name, the Lord Jesus Christ, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords, that we pray, and we bless this food, too. Amen.” I bet you didn't hear that prayer on any secular news outlet. In Psalm 35:18, King David offers this prayer to God: “I will give You thanks in the great assembly; among the throngs I will praise You.” Students for Life gives Congress an ‘F' after Planned Parenthood's funding resumes Pro-lifers across America are reeling over the Republican-controlled Congress's failure to keep Planned Parenthood defunded. Now, Students for Life has taken the dramatic step of notifying every member of Congress that they have received a failing pro-life grade as a result, reports LifeSiteNews.com. Last July, President Donald Trump signed into law his “One Big Beautiful Bill”, a wide-ranging policy package that included a one-year ban on federal tax dollars going through Medicaid to entities that commit abortions for reasons other than rape, incest, or supposed threats to the mother's life.  While it denied millions to Planned Parenthood, pro-lifers warned from the start that it was only a temporary solution and urged Congress to enact a more permanent measure ahead of the provision's July 4, 2026 expiration date. Maine's Democratic Senatorial candidate suspends campaign Democratic Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner ended his campaign on July 8th after facing a detailed allegation of sexual assault, an astounding and rapid fall for the leftist oysterman whose dramatic rise and grassroots support helped him overcome establishment opposition to secure his party's nomination, reports Politico.com. But a persistent accumulation of controversies weighed on Platner's campaign for months. Monday marked a turning point: Democratic leadership, many of Platner's staunchest leftist backers, and key groups who had been helping fund his bid withdrew their support and pressured Platner to drop out after POLITICO reported a new allegation of sexual assault. Since his withdrawal from the race, several Democrats have expressed interest in running against Republican incumbent Senator Susan Collins. Appearing on Fox News, Democratic Senator John Fetterman of Pennsylvania did not pull any punches and spoke directly to Graham Platner on national television. FETTERMAN: “A woman credibly accused you of raping her. He will be remembered as an accused rapist. He's always been a dead man walking.” FOX NEWS HOST: “He choked up a couple of times during that announcement. Do you think he thinks he's the victim here?” FETTERMAN: “Oh, yeah, definitely. Bro, you will only be remembered as the accused rapist that got pushed out of your election. That's your legacy, bro. You are a guy that cheats on your wife. You're the guy that roughs up your ex-girlfriends. That's your legacy, bro.” Trial of Charlie Kirk's alleged shooter reveals testimony from trans roommate In the trial involving Charlie Kirk's September 10, 2025 assassination, suspected shooter, Tyler Robinson, faces several charges including aggravated murder, a capital offense, reports the New York Post. On July 9th, Robinson's preliminary hearing entered Day 4 in Provo, Utah, as prosecutors played redacted video testimony from his ex-lover, Lance Twiggs, a man who pretends to be a woman named Luna. Twiggs was Robinson's former roommate and romantic partner, who was granted "use immunity" for his statements to investigators. Twiggs revealed Robinson's alleged tearful confession after returning home from killing Charlie Kirk — hours before turning himself in. In never-before-seen footage, Twiggs told prosecutors on July 9th that Robinson was walking around their apartment before breaking down and declaring he “wishes he hadn't done it.” The video showed prosecutor Ryan McBride interviewing Robinson's partner, who described Robinson's alleged regret when they spoke in person on September 11 — one day after Kirk was killed. McBRIDE: “Did he talk about what he had done?” TWIGGS: “Didn't go into detail. I just asked him, in person, if what he said was true the night before, and he said it was. He started crying a little bit, and said he wishes he hadn't done it.” Proverbs 12:17 says, “An honest witness tells the truth, but a false witness tells lies.” As related texts were read aloud, Kirk's widow, Erika Kirk, was heard crying in court, according to the Daily Mail. The video and accompanying texts — shown for the first time in court during a preliminary hearing — offered the strongest picture yet of how the accused lone gunman allegedly confessed to the assassination. 31-year-old Charlie Kirk was fatally shot in the neck during a Turning Point USA event at Utah Valley University. Worldview listeners weigh in from Wisconsin and Florida Wyatt Dennison, age 10, in DeForest, Wisconsin, wrote me and said, “I really like to listen to your newscast during lunchtime every day. I enjoy hearing how the Church throughout the world is doing. I also appreciate your sharing Scripture related to the news stories. My mom homeschools my four siblings and me. We are grateful to hear current events from a Christian worldview.” And Samuel Card in Fellsmere, Florida, wrote, “I enjoy the brief, yet various topics that The Worldview team compiles. Sometimes I go back and delve deeper into a subject that catches my attention. My favorite part is how Scripture is given throughout, showing just how much it applies to every part of life. An added benefit: I have just enough time to listen during my morning walk to work!” 12 Worldview listeners gave $3,345 on Thursday And finally, on Thursday by 5:45pm Central, 12 Worldview listeners stepped up to the plate and invested their treasure to fund the six-member team behind The Worldview for another 365 days. Our thanks to Karen in Muskego, Wisconsin who gave $25 as well as Paul in Cypress, Texas, Gilbert in Kodiak, Alaska, Susan in Oak Grove, Missouri, and Lara in Streetman, Texas – each of whom gave $50. We were touched by the generosity of Wendy in Ventura, California, Kelly in Loving, Texas, Steve in Loveland, Colorado, and George in Leesburg, Virginia – each of whom gave $100. And we're grateful to God for an anonymous donor in Cranston, Rhode Island who gave $120, David and Kathy in Crestview, Florida who renewed their pledge for $50/month for another 12 months for a total gift of $600, and Justin in Bozeman, Montana who gave $2,000. Those 12 gifts add up to $3,345. Ready for our new grand total? Drum roll please. (drum roll sound effect) $21,043 (sound effect of people cheering) That means we need to raise $9,832 to hit our $30,875 goal by tonight at 12 midnight. We need to find 4 Worldview listeners who will pledge $100/month for 12 months or give a one-time gift of $1,200, 4 folks who will pledge $50/month or give a one-time gift of $600 and 8 listeners who will pledge $25/month or give a one-time gift of $300.

Did you survive the Fourth without personal fireworks? Today we recap our parade experience and want to hear how YOU celebrated America's 250th — then we dig into the fires that broke out despite Utah's statewide ban: a brush fire in Provo's Slate Canyon, a "near-total loss" at the original Costa Vida in Layton after a suspected firework fire collapsed the roof and caused over $1M in damage, and a Kaysville brush fire started by young adults shooting bottle rockets at each other. And of course, THE wedding — Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce tied the knot July 3 at Madison Square Garden with Adam Sandler officiating, Paul McCartney and Stevie Nicks performing, and Chiefs coach Andy Reid (who was in Utah this weekend narrating for the Tabernacle Choir's America 250 broadcast) sharing Sandler's best marriage advice: "Keep kissing."    KSL Brightside streams live weekdays 12–3 PM, with a YouTube-exclusive live stream from 12–1 PM and radio + YouTube from 1–3 PM.   Follow KSL Brightside on social media!

The Tyler Robinson preliminary hearing is underway in Provo, Utah, and this could give the public its first real look at the evidence in the Charlie Kirk murder case. Robinson is charged with aggravated murder in the shooting death of Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University, and prosecutors are seeking the death penalty if he is convicted. This is a preliminary hearing, where the judge decides whether there is enough evidence to move the case forward. The hearing will show us how the state plans to prove identification, intent, motive and aggravating factors as they actively pursue the death penalty. It can also show us how the defense may counter the case, challenge the evidence, object to testimony, and begin laying the groundwork for trial. #ProfilingEvil #MikeKing #TylerRobinson #CharlieKirk #CharlieKirkCase #UtahCrime #UtahNews #TrueCrime #TrueCrimeCommunity #CrimeNews #CourtroomCoverage #PreliminaryHearing #DeathPenaltyCase #CriminalJustice #BreakingNews #LegalAnalysis #CourtCase #ForensicEvidence #BehavioralAnalysis #TrueCrimeDiscussion========================================20% OFF Newspapers.comhttps://www.newspapers.com/go/podcast/?ref=profilingevil?xid=8877&utm_source=ProfilingEvilPodcast&utm_medium=podcst&utm_campaign=ProfilingEvil26========================================Discounts on eBikes: https://aipasbike.com/?ref=PROFILINGEVILReferral Coupon Code: PROFILINGEVIL========================================Email your questions to: ProfilingEvil@gmail.com========================================

Ben Shapiro recently addressed the controversy surrounding Matt Walsh and the Daily Wire's coverage of Mormonism. In this clip, he explains that the real issue wasn't criticism of Mormonism itself, but the fact that it was published as a standalone article without similar pieces on other religions — making it appear as though Mormons were being singled out.Shapiro also gave a surprisingly warm shoutout to Latter-day Saints, calling them some of the politest, most well-behaved, and honest people in America, and specifically praised Provo, Utah.In this episode, we react to the clip and discuss what it reveals about the Daily Wire's relationship with the LDS community.#BenShapiro #DailyWire #Mormon #LDSChapter Markers / Timestamps00:00 - Intro: Ben Shapiro Comments on the Daily Wire & Mormonism01:35 - Ben Shapiro Explains the Real Problem With the Matt Walsh Article03:21 - Why Printing It Made It Look Like the Daily Wire Was Targeting Mormons04:21 - Ben Shapiro: “I Love the Mormons”05:31 - Shapiro Praises Provo and Latter-day Saints06:52 - Viewer Comments & Reactions07:58 - Where Was This Clip From?

Albert Simien and Caden Moss shake up SEC and national recruiting with pivotal college decisions. Will Ole Miss's offensive line recruiting momentum force other SEC teams to change how and where they recruit? The Rebels are certainly doing their best to keep top talent inside the Magnolia State. Brian Smith unpacks Moss's anticipated Ole Miss commitment, the Rebels' aggressive in-state run headlined by top talent like Antonio Berry, and why SEC powers like Alabama and LSU are scrambling to adapt. The conversation spotlights Albert Simien's likely Notre Dame move despite fierce competition from Texas A&M, LSU, and others—raising big questions about how national programs are leveraging NIL and strategic recruiting ops. Additional highlights cover top 2027 and 2028 prospects, instant-impact transfers, and bold fan chatter from BYU about the upcoming Notre Dame game in Provo, Utah. There's also the Michigan Michigan schedule to unpack. Can Michigan's revamped coaching staff and sophomore quarterback Bryce Underwood withstand a daunting schedule?

I did a livestream recap of the Mormon History Association (MHA highlights) conference, broadcast straight from my hotel room in lovely Las Vegas. Guided by some slightly out-of-order, AI-generated slides, this recap covers the most fascinating historical deep dives, unexpected gems, and award winners from the weekend. https://youtube.com/live/wy_-u8OCLMs Unexpected MHA Highlights & Gems: Pro Wrestling and Gnosticism One of the absolute standout presentations explored “The Mormon Giant,” Don Leo Jonathan, a 6’6″ pro wrestler active from the 1930s to the 1960s. Early in his career, he played up a “weird” and radical polygamist trope—complete with an unkempt beard and a live snake he claimed was from the Garden of Eden. However, to aid the Church’s PR shift toward mainstream assimilation in the 1950s and 60s, he transitioned to a clean-shaven, patriotic hero. Surprisingly, President David O. McKay, who was apparently a wrestling fan, actually authorized this PR gimmick to help mainstream the Church. Suprprisingly, his career ended via injury when he spun 7 foot tall Andre the Giant and injured his back in 1980, ending his wrestling career. Another surprise gem of the conference was a presentation by Mike Lemon on the “Temple of the Pearl,” a modern-day fringe group blending Mormon priesthood and eternal marriage with Gnosticism, chakras, yoga, and an androgynous double godhead. Mike LeCheminant, a dentist from Houston, TX gave an amazing presentation and I hope to get him on the podcast soon to talk more about this free love polygamist group. Politics, Welfare, and the New Deal MHA Highlights Several scholars provided a deep dive into the Church’s 1930s resistance to FDR’s New Deal, noting how leaders created their own welfare system driven by theological self-sufficiency to “supplant the dole” and discredit Roosevelt. Historian Matt Harris highlighted Hugh B. Brown, a vocal Democrat and trusted confidant of Heber J. Grant, who supported FDR’s programs. Brown faced severe backlash for taking the chairmanship of the state liquor commission after prohibition’s repeal, a controversial move that delayed his call to the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles by decades. We also learned about Senator Elbert Thomas, who defeated Apostle Reed Smoot in an election and applied his faith to international humanitarianism. Driven by the historical memory of 19th-century Latter-day Saint persecution, Thomas partnered with Jewish activists to force FDR to create a board that ultimately saved 200,000 Jewish lives. Finally, MHA President Ben Park delivered an address on Cleon Skousen’s massive political influence, explaining how Skousen tied Mormon agency to free-market capitalism and popularized works like The Naked Communist among conservative evangelicals through careful “code-switching.” Reevaluating Settler Colonialism & Science MHA Highlights Elise Boxer gave a powerful presentation challenging traditional “manifest destiny” pioneer narratives. She urged an indigenous lens to view Mormonism as a vehicle for US colonial expansion, pointing to the “This is the Place” monument as a visual example of reducing Native Americans to a marginalized backdrop. In the realm of 20th-century history, Steven Peck discussed BYU biologist Duane Jeffery’s 1970s push for evolutionary biology. Jeffery faced severe backlash and potential termination from Ezra Taft Benson in the 1980s, but was defended by current President Dallin H. Oaks, who decreed that the university must not censor truth or assume faith is too fragile for scientific reality. Polygamy Economics and Early Records MHA Highlights Our on Mary Ann Clements presented fascinating research examining the economic factors behind early plural marriage using Nauvoo tax records. She highlighted how leaders like Brigham Young may have strategically pursued women from wealthier families, such as Martha Brotherton, who famously refused a marriage proposal from Young at age 17 and was locked in a room at the Red Brick Store. Additionally, Cheryl Bruno announced the thrilling discovery of an 1854 list of Joseph Smith’s plural wives. This crucial document pushes the timeline of documented lists to just a decade after his death, earlier than the famous Thomas Bullock list. Award/MHA Highlights The conference also celebrated major contributions to the field of Mormon history. Posthumous honors went to Ardis Parshall, who received the Public History Award for her work championing the unheralded stories of everyday members. George D. Smith received the Arrington Award for fostering independent research as the co-founder of Signature Books, and Elise Boxer took home the Indigenous Studies Award for her book on Mormon settler colonialism. Did you go? What are your thoughts? Next year, John Turner will lead the conference as new MHA president in Provo, Utah. (Las Vegas to Provo is definitely a 180 in environment. I was surprised when a conference attendee was propositioned by a woman offering to make his night memorable. Clearly she didn’t care that most MHA attendees frown on such things. I don’t expect that to happen in Provo!) 00:00:02 Introduction & Welcome 00:04:17 Awards Ceremony (Friday Night) 00:08:34 New Deal & Hugh B. Brown Discussion 00:12:33 Mormon Settlement in Nevada 00:16:22 Mormon Settler Colonialism 00:20:33The Mormon Giant (Don Leo Jonathan) 00:24:40 Latter-day Saint Eloquence & Speaking 00:29:05 Canonization & Doctrine & Covenants 00:33:30 Saturday Sessions Overview 00:37:43 Polygamy in Nauvoo 00:41:50 Economic Factors in Plural Marriage 00:45:41 Earliest Plural Wife Lists 00:49:39 Ben Park’s Presidential Address (Cleon Skousen) 00:53:42 Evolution & BYU (Duane Jeffrey) 00:57:50 Gnostic Mormon Offshoot (Temple of the Pearl) 1:01:59 Final summary From deep dives into 20th-century political clashes to the surprising intersections of theology and wrestling, this MHA conference proved that Mormon history is vibrant, complex, and full of ongoing discoveries.

Tim Whipple is a financial advisor and part-owner of his own firm from Provo, Utah. He is a husband of nearly 30 years, a father to five boys, and a proud first-time grandpa. Tim is also a former college football and rugby player who has navigated the long-term effects of multiple concussions, including a significant fall several years ago that led to post-concussion syndrome, brain fog, debilitating "belt" headaches, and emotional challenges.In this episode of the Concussion Coach podcast, host Bethany Lewis interviews Tim Whipple, a client she has worked with alongside fellow coach Kaylee Blair. Tim shares his journey from a slip that led to a concussion, to the gradual onset of debilitating symptoms, and his eventual path to recovery through treatment at Cognitive FX (where he also discovered three broken vertebrae in his neck). He discusses the emotional toll of irritability and anxiety, the practical strategies he now uses daily—such as stacking his schedule, using interval training for brain clarity, taking intentional "small quits," and leveraging tools like the ResiMax and light therapy. Tim offers wisdom on accepting that he may never be the same as before, finding hope in progress over perfection, and the importance of giving the brain time to heal. The episode is a powerful message of resilience, self-compassion, and practical recovery strategies.Resources Mentioned by Tim Whipple:Cognitive FX – A clinic specializing in concussion and PCS treatment (where Tim received brain scans and therapy).Brain Waves – Audio used to help the brain focus or take a restorative break (https://apps.apple.com/us/app/brainwave-37-binaural-series/id307219387)Rezzimax – A device Tim uses when headaches begin to flare up.Full Spectrum Light Bed – The one recommended by coach Kaylee Blair: https://www.radiantvitality.com/ to help reset anxiety and calm the nervous system.A Child's Hope Foundation – An organization Tim works with, supporting orphanages in Mexico and other countriesInterval Training (modified) – Tim describes doing heart-rate-spiking exercises to help clear brain fogConcussion Coach Program – To work with both Bethany & Kaylee Blair: https://postconcussionsuccess.com/free-consultation/Guest Contact Info:Tim welcomes questions via Bethany Lewis.

Dynamic, Spirit-Led Instruction: Effective leadership teaching involves adjusting prepared messages in real time based on the immediate spiritual needs, hearts, and faces of the congregation. Continuous Personal Preparation: Rather than relying solely on structured notes, a leader’s preparation must be a daily habit of scripture study, deep pondering, and intentional spiritual readiness. Prophetic Alignment: Local teaching gains transformative power when leaders deliberately anchor their messages in the specific doctrines and priorities emphasized by the living prophet. Authentic Preparation and People Management: Successful leadership requires a balance of understanding structural logistics (“the X’s and O’s”) while remaining fundamentally focused on breaking down barriers to unite and care for people. Leadership Applications Adapting Teaching Formats: Rather than adhering rigidly to pre-written notes during a stake or ward conference, a leader can observe the congregation, look into their hearts, and allow impressions to dictate the ultimate focus of the instruction. Implementing Daily Spiritual Habits: Leaders can shift from last-minute meeting preparation to a model of daily scripture immersion, ensuring they are always spiritually prepared to receive revelation whenever an unexpected counseling or teaching opportunity arises. Unifying Specialized Councils: When working with various ward or stake organizations, a leader can focus on breaking down institutional silos to build a culture of authentic collaboration focused entirely on the individuals they serve.

It sounds a bit like the Tuacahn of Northern Utah -- what do you think? The Osmond family says they will build a world-class concert venue near the mouth of Provo Canyon. This would be on an old mining facility just across Highway 189 from Canyon View Park. There are lots of questions about the development, least of which is the effect of additional traffic on an already-busy stretch of highway. Greg and Holly discuss the plans and read listener comments, too.

“Eu, o Senhor, esquadrinho o coração e provo as entranhas; e isto para dar a cada um segundo os seus caminhos e segundo o fruto das suas ações.” Jeremias 17:10“…porque com a mesma medida com que medirdes também vos medirão de novo.” Lucas 6:38b

  The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is moving ahead with its mission of missionary work, recording a record number of convert baptisms last year. The Church is also shedding light on how missionaries are trained by releasing a new video that offers a behind-the-scenes look at the Missionary Training Center in Provo.

They have been learning together, while thousands of miles apart this year, about the rich history of Air Force Pilot Gail Halvorsen, nicknamed the “Candy Bomber” or “Uncle Wiggly Wings” from his time flying candy drops in Germany during the Berlin Airlift. On this episode of the Supercast, find out what happens when students from Berlin arrive in Utah to join West Hills Middle School students as part of their Colonel Halvorsen history lessons. It all culminated in the bonding of young minds, making chocolate bars, a moving assembly, and inspiring words from Halvorsen's daughters, words that would make “Uncle Wiggly Wings” proud. Audio Transcription Mark Sanderson: You know, the Candy Bomber was all about from small things, great things come and this event today was a manifestation of that. Daughter: We're just so thrilled that his legacy could continue because of the principles he taught. Lorraine Moore: He had no idea the power of what he started, but he spent the rest of his life sharing that. [Music] Anthony Godfrey: Hello and welcome to the Supercast. I'm your host, Superintendent Anthony Godfrey. They have been learning together, while thousands of miles apart, about the rich history of Air Force pilot, Gail Halvorsen, nicknamed the Candy Bomber or Uncle Wiggly Wings, from his time flying candy drops in Germany during the Berlin airlift. On this episode of the Supercast, find out what happens when students from Berlin arrive in Utah to join West Hills Middle School students as part of their Colonel Halvorsen history lessons. You'll hear about the bonding of young minds, making chocolate bars, an impactful assembly, and the inspiring words from Halvorsen's daughters, words that would make Uncle Wiggly Wings proud. We're talking now with Mark Sanderson, the teacher who put all of this together. What a wonderful event. Introduce yourself and talk about what inspired you to bring everyone together to commemorate Gail Halvorsen today. Mark Sanderson: I'm Mark Sanderson. I teach 8th grade at West Hills Middle School, 8th grade English. The project started really two years ago. I had been doing chocolate projects before that in connection with “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.” But since I wasn't teaching “Charlie,” I thought, "Hey, like, I need something else." But also I had been collaborating with the Aggie Chocolate Factory up at Utah State. And I said, "Hey, like, we've done this a few times. Like, let's do something more ambitious, like something bigger. Like, what about the Candy Bomber?" And they said, "Yeah, he's connected to Utah State. He came here." So they really latched onto the idea and I said, "I'm gonna reach out the Candy Bomber Foundation and make sure they're okay with that. I want to make sure we're doing it legitimately." I emailed the Candy Bomber Foundation and they were like, "Yeah, totally. Let's do it." And the project has really, to me, the key of the project has been the collaboration. Everybody who's been involved with it has caught the vision of it and has made the project bigger and better. Through the foundation, we were connected with the Gail Halvorsen School in Berlin who also did the project and had their students fly out here today. So to me, it's just been the collaboration that's the big takeaway. Anthony Godfrey: What impact do you see this having on students and on the community? Mark Sanderson Hopefully it'll make projects like this more possible, like easier to do, more common to do. And we can take pride in some of our local heroes and celebrate them at our schools. Anthony Godfrey: Well, I really appreciate the creativity and the drive and the energy that you brought to this. These are the types of experiences that students will never forget. What is the personal impact on you of Gail Halvorsen's story? Mark Sanderson Well, I don't... well, ultimately I'd rather have my students remember the event than necessarily remember me or my name. If they can remember the event, to me, that's the main thing. But for me, you know, the Candy Bomber was all about from small things, great things come. And this event today was a manifestation of that. It started with a small idea and a bunch of other people joined in to make it happen, make it possible. I couldn't have done all this by myself. So I think it's a manifestation of his vision, his belief, his legacy. And hopefully our students will collaborate with others to make big things happen that are positive in our community. Anthony Godfrey: Well, today's activity, in my mind, honors what he did and exponentially extends the influence of his actions. I just really appreciate your providing such a unique and meaningful experience for these students. [band music] Anthony Godfrey: Talking with Lorraine Moore about the Gail Halvorsen Foundation, we're here waiting for the Candy Bomber event to happen. Tell us a little bit about what you do. Lorraine Moore: Wonderful. I appreciate the opportunity at the Candy Bomber Foundation. We're looking to carry on Gayle's legacy of kindness, service, education, and really bringing hope to people that need it because we all do. Anthony Godfrey: I remember that he was very active in the community, loved visiting schools, and I got to meet him when he visited, I think it was, Oquirrh Hills Middle School years ago. Lorraine Moore: Fun. And if you got the opportunity to speak to him for 30 seconds, you had a lifelong friend. Anthony Godfrey: Yes, that's right. Lorraine Moore: He's always like that. Anthony Godfrey: Yes, very friendly. Tell me about the work that your organization does. Lorraine Moore: Absolutely. Well, Gayle always felt that education is the power to create a life, and service is the power to create a life of joy for yourself and for those that you're serving. So we like to combine those two elements, and our programs are values-based STEM programs, not only teaching kids what they can do with science and education, but what good they can do, and helping them to see how important even a little bit of good, even just two sticks of gum or a parachute with a chocolate bar, how much that can do for people. Anthony Godfrey: Well, Gail Halvorsen is an incredible example of making the most of your circumstances and finding opportunities to do good, not just do what you're assigned to do, but to go well beyond that. Lorraine Moore: Way beyond that. He was very likely thought he was gonna get court-martialed for doing it, but he saw a whole generation of children that had never known anything but war, and there was just a light had gone out of their eyes, and he realized, "I can't do a lot, but if I can do a little, I can bring a little bit more light back in those eyes," and he had no idea the power of what he started, but he spent the rest of his life sharing that. Anthony Godfrey: When he did that, I'll bet he had no idea it was going to last a lifetime, and well beyond. For those who may not know, tell the story of Gail Halvorsen and what he did. Lorraine Moore: He grew up here in Utah, so he is a local hero. He was serving in the Berlin airlift as one of the cargo pilots, bringing in food and fuel and all of the supplies that Berlin needed to survive after the war, and when they would unload the planes, the pilots would want to get out, stretch their legs, and him just being a people person, the first thing he loved to do is go talk to the people at the fence of the airport, and usually it was young kids. A group of them there loved meeting the American pilots. He loved that he could help these kids realize that planes flying into their airport didn't mean bombs. It meant someone was here to help, and that meant a lot to him, and so one day he was at the fence and he just really felt inspired. These kids needed a little something more. He reached in his pocket and all he had was two sticks of gum. He thought two sticks of gum and 30 kids, I'm gonna start a riot. He was so worried, yeah, but he just knew he had to do it, so he gave the gum to the kids, and instead of fighting over it, they broke it into the smallest pieces they could break it into, and the kids who didn't get gum smelled the wrapper. Double mint gum. It's become the smell of freedom all over the world, and for them they knew that was the smell of freedom, and they asked him, "Don't give up on us. We can do without food for a while, but if you guys give up on us, we'll lose our freedom, and we'll never get it back," and it just really put a fire in his heart to do more to help these kids, so he told them he'd come back and he'd bring them more candy. He went that night and got everyone's candy bar rations and everyone's handkerchiefs and tied parachutes and made these parachutes with the candy. The kids asked him, "How will we know it's you because there's a hundred planes coming in every hour and we don't know who you are," so he told them he'd wiggle his wings, and that's how he got the name Uncle Wiggly Wings, and so a legend was born. Anthony Godfrey: I didn't know that part. I didn't know that part. That's cool. Lorraine Moore: Yep, he loved that. That was one of his favorite nicknames. Anthony Godfrey: And how many candy runs did he make? Lorraine Moore: I don't know how many runs, but by the time they were done, they had dropped almost 10 million pounds of candy. Anthony Godfrey: Wow. Well, thank you so much for being here, and let's join the ceremony. Lorraine Moore: Yeah. Anthony Godfrey: Stay with us when we come back.

Anthony Godfrey: We're talking now with Gail Halvorsen's two daughters who were here for the ceremony today. Thank you so much for being here. Daughter: Thank you. It's a privilege. Daughter: Happy to be here. Anthony Godfrey: Tell me about some of these events and what it's meant to carry on this legacy over the years both while your father was alive and now as you as you continue to talk about his life and his story. Daughter: Well it's a wonderful thing. We've been to many events like this with him both in Germany and here in the States. Candy drops, school visits, auditoriums full of kids and he always had them captivated and we're just so thrilled that his legacy could continue because of the principles he taught. Anthony Godfrey: I was lucky enough to meet him when he visited one of the schools here in Jordan School District and it was very inspiring. Everyone was really changed by that. Tell me what are some of the types of events that you've attended over the years and that he's attended over the years that have commemorated and extended the influence of his Candy Bomber days. Daughter: Well he dropped candy at all of our children's elementary schools and spoke at the in the auditorium; spoke about freedom and the importance of freedom and the children at the fence how they were so impressed. He was so impressed with him because they wanted freedom more than food. Because of that and he saw their gratitude he wanted you to do something nice for them and dropped from candy so he's been in schools he's been in many flyover candy drops in Sarah Park. People remember that just all over the country. Daughter: In Germany and Berlin they have an airlift memorial there and every May 12th they have a service and ceremony and I remember one particular year there they had a flyover in the original airplane C54 that he flew and they dropped candy. That might have been for the 50th or they always have a really big thing on the 50th, 55th, 60th and so on. Anthony Godfrey: Wow that's amazing. So when you were growing up did the candy flow freely in your home or was it restricted? Daughter: Gum did. We had a gum jar. The gum was there. Anthony Godfrey: Just like the two sticks of gum that started it all. Daughter: Honestly I didn't know my dad was the Candy Bomber until I was in high school. Anthony Godfrey: Oh how did you discover that your dad was the Candy Bomber? Daughter: I had to write a report and he told me a story what happened to him during the airlift and that's kind of when I found out about an experience flying into Berlin. Anthony Godfrey: What did your teacher say when you turned that in? Daughter: They probably knew before I showed up. Anthony Godfrey: Did you at least get an A on the project? Daughter: I don't remember. Anthony Godfrey: I'm sure you did. I'm sure you did. And when did you discover that your dad was the Candy Bomber? Daughter: I was also in high school. So I remember one summer we were living in California and he was invited to Berlin for the 40th anniversary of the end of the airlift and then when he came back he told us about all the things that happened. They had a candy drop at the Temple Hall airbase. They had thousands of people that would come to that and he signed autographs and sat in his airplane and showed us pictures of all this so that's when I started thinking “oh”. Then when we moved to Berlin in 1970 and he was commander there we met many of the people that had been alive during that time. They're so full of passion and gratitude. They're just speaking to him with tears coming down their faces. Their whole lives they've strived to serve and give back. We still are communicating with one another. Anthony Godfrey: It's an honor to meet you both. Thank you for sharing those stories and for being here. I'm sure these students will never forget it. Daughters: Thank you. Thanks for the opportunity. Anthony Godfrey: We're talking now with one of the German students who came to visit West Hills as part of the Candy Bomber event today. Tell us your name and tell us a little bit about why you're here. Student: I am Bayam and we are here because we won an art competition. We had to design a chocolate wrapper and yeah. Anthony Godfrey: So you designed the chocolate wrapper for the chocolate that was created for this event to be given to the students as part of this commemorative event for Gail Halvorson but you go to the Gail Halvorson school. Tell me a little bit about that. Student: Well the school has many well we have our signature speech. It's I don't really know it anymore like right now because we have it in German and we do have a picture of him, a drawn portrait, in black and white in our auditorium so we do honor him a lot and he really didn't want to be famous but he just made a small act and is now very very known for that small act. Anthony Godfrey: Tell me about the design that won you a trip to come visit us. Student: My design was I had a text it was a small rhyme I don't really know anymore but I also had the Berlin TV tower and a bit of the Berlin Wall on it. Yeah. Anthony Godfrey: Nice. Well, your English is excellent we're so glad to have you here and it meant a lot to have you and your friends and your teachers here visiting us. It really made it an important event for us so thank you for being here. Student: I'm honored to be here. Thank you. Anthony Godfrey: We're talking now with the chocolate designer and the chocolatier. Is that the right term? Student: Yeah. Anthony Godfrey: Okay. Not a Mouseketeer a chocolatier. It has the same exciting feeling. So tell me about your design and what the contest was. Student: Yeah so the contest was about who can make a chocolate bar inspired by Gail Halvorson and kind of you know market it and make a good design that represents it. Anthony Godfrey: As part of the ceremony we heard your description of why you chose the elements of the chocolate bar that you did. Talk to us about that. Student: So when I made the chocolate bar, it was kind of a cartoon idea at first not supposed to be real so I want everything to have a meaning and represent something more important, so I had caramel for its comfort and like classic and then milk chocolate because it's sweet just like Gail Halvorson's act, and then I had the honey to represent kindness. Anthony Godfrey: Have you tried the chocolate bar? Student: Yeah. Anthony Godfrey: How did it turn out? Student: It's actually really good. Anthony Godfrey: I bet it is. Now let's talk with our chocolatier who helped support this. Introduce yourself and tell us about this project. Grant Fryes: Yeah, my name is Grant Fryes. I'm the co-owner at Taste Artist and Chocolate Down in Provo and yeah Mark connected with me first and introduced the idea of having this competition and us kind of taking the role of bringing these ideas to life and I just immediately got excited you know letting the students just take the creative reins and then just turning that into something delicious and yeah, they did a great job. Anthony Godfrey: We really appreciate your support. Our German visitors went and visited this morning came down there and took a little tour. Grant Fryes: Yeah they actually made their own chocolate bar. Anthony Godfrey: They made their own chocolate bars. Fantastic. I wanted to come for that part. I just had meetings I couldn't get out of. Tell us about the results. How did the chocolate bar turn out? You're the chocolate expert. Grant Fryes: Yeah, no they really I was excited when the ideas the finalists were chosen, and they sent the ideas over because I immediately knew both of these are gonna be incredible. Ryan's idea was I saw it come in and we normally don't do fillings in our bars. We usually try to keep just solid bars. His came in and I was like no, that has to be a filling in the middle of the bar. So that was a fun fun adventure for us to make our first filled chocolate bar. Anthony Godfrey: Breaking all the rules. Making this delicious bar with Ryan. And so thank you for doing that and for supporting us in that effort. Tell us a little bit more about your business. Grant Fryes: Yeah, so we're what we what you call bean-to-bar chocolate. So we import the raw cocoa beans ourselves from all over the world and do the whole process from scratch. And then attached to the factory, we have a little cafe where we do afternoon tea service and little light lunch menu. Lots of desserts obviously with the chocolate. Anthony Godfrey: Sure. Grant Fryes: And kind of showcase chocolate from not just our factory but around the world as well. Anthony Godfrey: Thank you so much for being here. Grant Fryes: Absolutely. Anthony Godfrey: I'll be stopping by. Thanks for joining us on another episode of the Supercast. Remember, “Education is the most important thing you will do today.” We'll see you out there.

Are Big Money BYU Sports Compatible with LDS Church Mission? Dr. Matthew Bowman, co-author of “Game Changers,” zeroes in on the ultimate tension in modern collegiate sports: can you balance God, Mammon, and big money athletics? As BYU integrates into the lucrative Big 12 conference, the historic values of amateurism are directly clashing with the pursuit of NBA stardom. https://youtu.be/SZssRvBGiCM Gospel Tangents NEWSLETTER: https://gospeltangents.com/newsletter  Don't miss our other discussions with Matthew. https://gospeltangents.com/people/matthew-bowman Copyright © 2026 Gospel Tangents All Rights Reserved The Kevin Young Factor While millions of dollars and family-friendly environments played a huge role in landing top recruit AJ Dybantsa, his third reason for choosing BYU was head coach Kevin Young. Young left a highly promising coaching career in the NBA to come to Provo, bringing invaluable professional connections with him. During a recruiting pitch, Young even pulled out his phone, called NBA superstar Kevin Durant—whom he coached in Phoenix—and handed the phone directly to Dybantsa. Young is explicitly selling recruits on his ability to get them to the NBA, cementing college sports as a professional stepping stone. Cautionary Tale of Jimmer Fredette Matt contrasts this new era of “one-and-done” recruits with the legacy of Jimmer Fredette. Bowman describes Fredette as a player built for the traditional amateur college game who was unfairly pushed into the modern “massive media industrial complex” that demands individual celebrity. Unlike Danny Ainge, who thrived by fitting into a cooperative team system and sharing the ball, Fredette was forced to carry the entire team on his back. This intense pressure to be a singular, massive celebrity ultimately did him a disservice when he reached the NBA, making him a cautionary tale of how modern sports media can chew players up. God vs. Mammon on the Hardwood: Is this massive influx of money compatible with BYU’s mission? Bowman argues there is no easy answer. On one hand, church leaders like Henry Eyring have previously expressed that a successful football team acts as a powerful missionary tool. On the other hand, the millions of dollars involved shift the focus away from the character-building, cooperative origins of the sport. Today, the game is increasingly about individual stardom and financial gain, causing significant tension with the university’s spiritual goals. Will BYU Ever Drop Athletics? Given this tension, a popular rumor suggests that future church leaders might eventually eliminate BYU’s sports programs entirely, mirroring the decision made years ago to drop athletics at Ricks College (now BYU-Idaho). However, Bowman believes this is highly unlikely. The financial momentum of BYU athletics is simply too powerful to stop. Between Big 12 television money and the sheer influence of massive donor groups—BYU’s NIL collective, the “Royal Blue,” is reportedly the second-largest in the country behind Kentucky—eliminating the sports programs would result in intense backlash from wealthy boosters.
