Sharing an episode of the No Small Endeavor podcast.These days, our culture is marked by political unrest, polarization and anxiety. Beauty and art feel like a luxury, or even a distraction.In a special series, No Small Endeavor is asking: What if art, beauty, and poetry are exactly what we need to face the crisis at hand? Can poetry help us protest, pray, lament, and even hope? Host Lee C. Camp talks to poets like Haleh Liza Gafori, a poet, musician, and acclaimed translator of the Persian poet Rumi; and Pádraig Ó Tuama, poet, theologian, and host of Poetry Unbound. Their conversations evoke thoughtfulness about how to fight for beauty in the current culture, and how to make it through the fires of our time together.In this episode, Lee talks to Joy Harjo, a musician, author, and three-term U.S. Poet Laureate. Camp and Harjo explore how poetry can act as a form of justice, a practice of self-development, and a tiny experiment in healing.You can listen to No Small Endeavor at https://link.mgln.ai/goodlifeprojectWatch Jonathan's new TEDxBoulder Talk on YouTube now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zUAM-euiVI Hosted on Acast.

You've almost certainly heard Peter Thiel's name. You very likely even have an opinion about him. But how much do you actually know about him? One of the most powerful people in America is also one of the most secretive, because that lack of public visibility gives him much more room to exercise a scary amount of control over our country. This week, Adam gets the in-depth scoop on Peter Thiel with Bloomberg Business Week reporter Max Chafkin, who recently authored the book The Contrarian: Peter Thiel and Silicon Valley's Pursuit of Power.Find Max's book at factuallypod.com/books--SUPPORT THE SHOW ON PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/adamconoverSEE ADAM ON TOUR: https://www.adamconover.net/tourdates/SUBSCRIBE to and RATE Factually! on:» Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/factually-with-adam-conover/id1463460577» Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0fK8WJw4ffMc2NWydBlDyJAbout Headgum: Headgum is an LA & NY-based podcast network creating premium podcasts with the funniest, most engaging voices in comedy to achieve one goal: Making our audience and ourselves laugh.

Pastor Corbett continues our Defining Worship series by reminding us that true worship isn't just a song—it's a lifestyle marked by obedience. Using Abraham's costly obedience in Genesis 22 and the priests' empty sacrifices in Malachi 1, he shows the difference between worship rooted in surrender and worship offered with a divided heart. Drawing from Colossians 1, he calls us to “walk in a manner worthy of the Lord,” letting our love, service, generosity, and witness overflow as acts of worship. The challenge: identify where God is calling you to obey and let your whole life reflect the worth of Jesus.

In this episode, Catherine Harrison opens up about the toughest stretch of her career -- multiple injuries, months off tour, and the honest conversations that pushed her to rethink what longevity and success really mean. Now, with 2026 on the horizon, she's committing fully to doubles to chase the Grand Slam she knows she's capable of. Tennis fans get an inside look at the mindset shift, the rehab grind, the challenge of rebuilding confidence, and what goes into choosing the right partner. Catherine breaks down how doubles offers a clearer path to winning at the biggest stages, and why this next chapter feels more intentional, more strategic, and more exciting than anything she's done before. Whether you've followed her since UCLA or discovered her on tour, this is Catherine's open and detailed account and a powerful reminder of why comebacks in tennis matter.

Feeling stuck in weight loss resistance in midlife, even though you're walking, eating "pretty healthy," and doing all the things? In this episode, I sit down with Michelle, a former physical therapist turned yoga teacher, trainer, and health coach, to talk about what your metabolism actually needs after 40—and why more cardio is rarely the answer. We get honest about busy schedules, back pain, fear of lifting heavier weights, and that nagging feeling that you "should" be doing more, all while your energy and motivation are slipping. We break down the real difference between steps, cardio, and strength training, and how midlife changes in muscle mass, hormones, and stress tolerance mean your body needs a smarter, more strategic approach. If you've been worried about injury, confused by conflicting advice online, or frustrated that your efforts aren't showing up on the scale, this conversation will help you understand what to focus on next—without an all-or-nothing mindset. Key Points (full details inside the episode) Why daily movement and short, consistent strength sessions beat long, draining cardio for midlife metabolism and long-term health. How muscle loss after 40 affects weight loss resistance, bone health, and injury risk—and the simple way to start rebuilding strength at home. The mistake of over-exercising and under-eating, and how too much stress on the body can work against your hormones and keep the weight on. What a "strong core" really is (hint: it's not just abs) and how it protects your back, posture, and everyday movement as you age. If you're a midlife woman wanting better metabolism, less weight loss resistance, and a stronger, more resilient body without punishing workouts, this episode will give you a clear "why" behind lifting, yoga, walking, and choosing the right kind of movement for your season of life. Hit play to get clarity, encouragement, and practical insight you can finally use.

The book Relentless Pursuit: My Fight for the Victims of Jeffrey Epstein by Bradley J. Edwards (co-written with Brittany Henderson) tells the story of how Edwards, a Florida-based victims' rights attorney, took on the case against Jeffrey Epstein—beginning when a teenage survivor named Courtney Wild came to him in 2008 claiming abuse by Epstein. Edging into a legal fight that spanned more than a decade, Edwards details how Epstein's network of exploitation didn't just depend on his own wealth and power, but on a corrupt system of defeasance, secret deals and powerful enablers.In the book, Edwards lays bare how the infamous 2008 non-prosecution agreement, how Epstein operated largely unchallenged for years, and how survivors fought to hold both Epstein and his enablers accountable. He recounts the legal battles, the intimidation, the sealed plea deals, and the resilience of survivors demanding justice. Along the way he also shines light on Ghislaine Maxwell's shadowy role, how Epstein's social circles converged with elite power, and how the system was repeatedly manipulated to shield him—making the book much more than a courtroom memoir, but a deep dive into systemic failure.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

It wasn't a movement of revival; it was a power play.After Henry, England spun between Protestant and Catholic identities depending on the monarch. Edward VI pushed Protestant reforms, Mary I violently restored Catholicism, and Elizabeth I settled for a middle-way Anglicanism. The constant whiplash raised a crucial question:If kings can change doctrine overnight, where does true faith come from—crown or conscience?Puritans, Separatists, and the Search for a Church Governed by ScriptureTwo groups rose in response:Puritans — Anglicans who wanted deeper biblical reform.Separatists (Pilgrims) — Puritans who believed the system was beyond repair.King James I shut down most Puritan reforms (except authorizing the King James Bible).

In this episode of Finding Freedom on the Lions of Liberty Podcast Network, host John Odermatt dives into the future of the conservative movement, asking whether "Make America Great Again" (MAGA) or "Make America Healthy Again" (MAHA) will define the next era. John explores the wins, losses, and promises of both movements, reflecting on the shifting priorities within American politics and culture. He discusses the grassroots rise of MAHA, the evolving MAGA coalition, and the growing distrust of big institutions. The episode also covers the impact of health freedom, the role of RFK Jr., and the intersection of wellness trends with political identity. John shares personal insights, market shifts, and the challenges facing both movements. Ultimately, he argues that health is the new battleground for freedom and that the side able to embrace MAHA will shape the future. Tune in for a thought-provoking analysis of where America is headed.

It wasn't a movement of revival; it was a power play.After Henry, England spun between Protestant and Catholic identities depending on the monarch. Edward VI pushed Protestant reforms, Mary I violently restored Catholicism, and Elizabeth I settled for a middle-way Anglicanism. The constant whiplash raised a crucial question:If kings can change doctrine overnight, where does true faith come from—crown or conscience?Puritans, Separatists, and the Search for a Church Governed by ScriptureTwo groups rose in response:Puritans — Anglicans who wanted deeper biblical reform.Separatists (Pilgrims) — Puritans who believed the system was beyond repair.King James I shut down most Puritan reforms (except authorizing the King James Bible). He made Anglican worship mandatory by law, and that pressure pushed both groups out of England.The Separatists, who fled first, would shape the future of the church in profound ways.The Birth of the Baptists and CongregationalistsThe Gainsborough Group escaped to Amsterdam and encountered the Anabaptists—believers who rejected state-run religion and emphasized personal faith.

In today's episode, Josh Hillis joins us again for a practical and refreshingly honest conversation about skill-building, emotional eating, perfectionism, and the messy, human reality of behavior change. We dive into what it really means to practice eating skills, why the checkbox is the practice, not the outcome, and how the pursuit of excellence looks a whole lot more like peaceful striving than perfection. Josh breaks down the “training-wheels” approach that helps people build confidence slowly, intentionally, and compassionately, instead of swinging between rigid control and all-or-nothing chaos.You'll hear us talk about emotional eating without shame, how to navigate food without relying on strict diet rules, and why the most meaningful changes happen when you stop waiting to “feel ready” and instead get in the game: fumble around, learn, adjust, and keep going. If you're someone who's been stuck in the cycle of trying, “failing,” quitting, and starting over…this episode is the permission slip and the roadmap you've been searching for.“The checkbox is the practice, not the outcome. The outcome comes later.”- Josh Hillis“The number one predictor of eating-behavior change is willingness to feel..”- Josh HillisThis week on Here's the Deal:Why practicing skills (not accomplishing them) is the real path to sustainable eating behavior change.How pausing before eating builds agency and separates wanting from choosing.Why emotional eating can be intentional, values-aligned, and not something to fear.A training-wheels approach to navigating “trigger foods” without overwhelm or blowouts.How perfectionism leads to more quitting, not better resultsWhat pursuit of excellence actually looks like.Why “easy practice” matters more than tackling the hardest food in the hardest situation.How tracking something (skills, not just calories) helps maintain structure without slipping into diet culture.Why the magic happens when you allow yourself to learn, fumble, and layer skills over time—with patience and compassion.Connect with Josh Hillis:Cravings, Emotionally Flexibility, and Your Goals with Josh HillisJosh Hillis on InstagramJosh Hillis WebsiteEating Skills Class: Three Foundational SkillsFat Loss Happens on a Monday BookLean and Strong BookThanks for tuning in to this week's episode of Here's the Deal: Fitness, Nutrition, and Mindset for People Who Don't Want Life to Suck, where we challenge the common understanding of what it means and what it takes to be fit and healthy!

Welcome back! We're in week three of our David series, and today we'll be talking about the trap of comparison that plagues humanity, and we'll be using David's troubled relationship with King Saul as an example!--The PursueGOD Truth podcast is the “easy button” for making disciples – whether you're looking for resources to lead a family devotional, a small group at church, or a one-on-one mentoring relationship.

Email us at podcast@pursueGOD.org.Donate Now --DAVID: THE COMPARISON TRAPComparison is the silent killer of joy. It slowly steals your confidence, shifts your focus, and leaves you spiritually drained. In 1 Samuel 18, we see this clearly in the lives of Saul and David. David's moment of victory should have united Israel—but instead, it exposed the dangerous power of comparison in Saul's heart. His story warns us that comparison doesn't just affect how we feel; it affects who we become.The Celebration That Turned Into JealousyWhen David returned from defeating Goliath, the nation erupted with music, dancing, and praise. The women sang:“Saul has killed his thousands, and David his ten thousands!” (1 Samuel 18:7, NLT)This wasn't a protest song or a political statement—it was a celebration of God's deliverance. But Saul heard something different. Instead of hearing gratitude, he heard threat. Instead of celebrating God's victory, he fixated on David's recognition.“So from that time on Saul kept a jealous eye on David.” (1 Samuel 18:9, NLT)Comparison took a moment of unity and turned it into a moment of insecurity.1. Comparison Strangles Your JoySaul had every reason to be joyful—his nation was safe, his army victorious, and his reputation still strong. But when he looked sideways at David, his joy collapsed.The same thing happens to us. Social media has made comparison effortless. Studies show people—especially Gen Z—often feel worse after scrolling, not better. We see what others have and suddenly forget what God has given us.Scripture reminds us:“Those who seek the Lord will lack no good thing.” (Psalm 34:10, NLT)If God hasn't given it, we don't need it—not yet, and maybe not ever. Joy isn't rooted in what others have; it's rooted in who God is.Joy grows in gratitude, not in comparison.2. Comparison Stunts Your GrowthSaul's jealousy didn't just affect his emotions—it affected his leadership. The day after the celebration, he tried to kill David (1 Samuel 18:10–11). Instead of mentoring the young man God had raised up, Saul made him an enemy.Proverbs warns us:“A peaceful heart leads to a healthy body; jealousy is like cancer in the bones.”(Proverbs 14:30, NLT)Jealousy slowly eats away at your capacity to grow. Jesus had to correct Peter on this very issue. When Peter asked about John's future, Jesus answered:“What is that to you? As for you, follow me.” (John 21:22, NLT)You can't follow Jesus while watching someone else's calling.You can't grow while...

You've heard us talk about single barrels for years, but this time we're sitting on the other side of the table. Kenny and Ryan just dropped a new round of Pursuit Series bottles — Episodes 77 through 81 — and if you've been following the brand since the early days, this lineup might feel like a full-circle moment. These were first unveiled during the debut of Founder Hour, a brand-new, six-seat tasting experience inside the Pursuit Spirits gift shop on Whiskey Row. Think of it as the most intimate flight we've ever done, with pours that tell the story of how far this brand has come. In this episode, we're taking you behind the scenes of those releases for everyone who couldn't make that inaugural Founder Hour. Kenny and Ryan walk through what makes each of these barrels special — from a 12-year Bardstown sibling to the legendary 017, to a 20-year Tennessee giant that officially becomes the oldest whiskey in Pursuit Spirits history. We talk about how long they've been sitting on some of these barrels, what patience really looks like when you're building a brand, and why Founder Hour might be the most personal experience they've ever created. So pour a glass, settle in, and let's go inside the story of Pursuit Series 77–81 — the bottles that turned a small tasting idea into a full-blown experience.Show Notes: Introduction of the Pursuit Founder Hour Introducing Episodes 77-81 Backstory of Episodes Tasting the Latest Releases The Future of Pursuit Series Closing Thoughts and Community Engagement Support this podcast on Patreon Learn more about your ad choices.
