"You can taste the quality." —Katina Mountanos Most of what's labeled "extra virgin olive oil" on grocery shelves isn't giving you the extra virgin olive oil benefits you think it is — and Kosterina founder Katina Mountanos found that out the hard way.  In this episode, Justine sits down with Katina to unpack why so much store-bought olive oil tastes flat, what polyphenols actually do in the body, and why the "don't cook with olive oil, it has a low smoke point" advice you've been following is flat-out wrong. Katina traces her obsession with real olive oil back to summers on her family's farm in Koroni, Greece — and the moment, years later, that a $12 bottle from a New York supermarket tasted nothing like it. That gap sent her through an olive oil sommelier certification, a deep dive into polyphenol research, and eventually a full-time business built on transparency: harvest dates, single-origin sourcing, and third-party testing for everything from acidity to microplastics. This episode is for anyone who's stood in the oil aisle wondering which bottle is actually worth it, and for anyone rethinking what "seed oil vs olive oil" really means for their health. • High-antioxidant extra-virgin olive oil can contain 500–1,000+ mg/kg of polyphenols, compared to roughly 150 mg/kg in average grocery-store bottles. • Smoke point is not the right test for whether an oil is safe to cook with — free radical emission under heat is what actually matters, and olive oil emits far fewer than seed oils. • A bottle labeled "Italian" or "Greek" extra-virgin olive oil can still be a blend of residual oils from multiple countries and harvests, bottled together under one label. • Plastic packaging accelerates rancidity and can leach microplastics, so glass or tin with a visible harvest date is a stronger buying signal than the words "extra virgin" alone. • Fresh, high-polyphenol olive oil produces a peppery burn at the back of the throat — the same sensation researchers first mistook for ibuprofen contamination. • Cooking with avocado oil or genuine early-harvest olive oil, instead of canola or other seed oils, is a low-effort swap with a real anti-inflammatory upside. Listen to the full conversation for Katina's grocery-aisle checklist and her at-home smell-and-taste test — then subscribe so you never miss an episode. https://tinyurl.com/Essential-Ingredients-Podcast  Meet Katina:  Katina Mountanos is the founder and CEO of Kosterina, a premium Greek extra virgin olive oil and Mediterranean foods brand built at the intersection of taste, health, and transparency. Raised between New York and the olive groves of Koroni, Greece, Katina grew up knowing what truly good olive oil should taste like. After becoming a certified olive oil sommelier and uncovering the powerful health benefits of high–polyphenol extra virgin olive oil, she launched Kosterina as a passion project while working in consumer brands at Walmart.  Today, Kosterina's early-harvest, cold-pressed, high-antioxidant olive oils, fruit-infused vinegars, and olives are nationally available at Whole Foods, Walmart, Target, and online, and are recognized for both exceptional flavor and rigorous quality testing. Grounded in the Mediterranean diet, Katina's work champions cooking at home, clean ingredients, and replacing inflammatory seed oils with olive oil to support heart, gut, metabolic, and overall health.  Website Instagram Facebook TikTok Connect with NextGen Purpose: Website Facebook Instagram LinkedIn YouTube Podcast Chapters: 00:52 Meet Katina Mountanos: Growing Up in Greek Olive Country 06:09 Why Kosterina's Polyphenol Levels Triple the Average 08:46 Building Kosterina as a Passion Project While at Walmart 14:26 Busting the Smoke Point Myth About Cooking With Olive Oil 16:51 Canola Oil, the "Hateful Eight," and Why Blends Deceive 19:09 How to Spot Real Extra Virgin Olive Oil at the Store 21:48 The Smell-and-Taste Test for Good Olive Oil at Home 27:31 What's Next: Vinegars, Olives, and a 2027 Launch  Resources:  DISCOUNT Get a 15% discount when you shop at Kosterina Use code: essential15 THE PRIMES  ✨ You're more capable than you have ever been, and somehow more invisible than ever.

Jahnavi Harrison is a Grammy-nominated artist, musician, and practitioner of Bhakti Yoga who has spent her life exploring sound as a path to the divine. Raised at Bhaktivedanta Manor in England, she grew up inside one of the world's most dedicated devotional communities, and in this conversation we trace how that formation shaped her relationship with voice, identity, approval, and what it means to offer your life as a prayer.What We Dive Into:1. Most of us were told at some point to be quiet, to sound better, or to wait until we were good enough. That conditioning runs deep. Reclaiming the voice, whether through kirtan, song, or simply speaking truthfully, is one of the most direct paths back to a self that stopped performing and started expressing.2. Bhakti is not a feeling you arrive at and maintain. It is a daily offering, something you return to moment by moment, especially when you have drifted. Jahnavi's framing is simple: make space for prayer in whatever form feels alive to you, and that space will become a source of nourishment that compounds over time.3. The desire to be accepted can masquerade as discernment, as wisdom, even as calling. Jahnavi traces how much of her own journey involved slowly distinguishing the voice of genuine inner knowing from the much louder voice that simply wanted to be liked. That distinction is not resolved once. It is worked on for life.Know Thyself, but not by yourself. A guided space to return home to yourself.https://www.knowthyselfcollective.com✨THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS:https://www.timeline.com/KNOWTHYSELF Save 20% off your Mitopure® Gummieshttps://www.mudwtr.com/knowthyselfUse code KNOWTHYSELF for up to 43% off sitewide___________00:00 Intro01:36 What Devotional Music Actually Is03:12 Sound as a Direct Path to the Divine06:42 Sound as the First and Last Sense09:15 The Sensitivity of Sound and Its Transformative Power12:28 Why We Lose Our Voices: Fear, Shame, and the Voice Unsung16:22 Finding Your Voice and Speaking Your Truth20:17 Discerning Your Own Voice from the Noise of Others23:46 The Missed Flight: Choosing Calling Over Convention29:00 Life as an Offering: Dharma and Letting Go of Outcomes31:54 The Intelligence of the Heart in Bhakti36:22 Nature, Silence, and the Inner Life42:39 Prayer vs. Meditation: Are They the Same?48:32 Prayer as Relationship, Not Request57:54 Kirtan, Mantra, and the Dissolution of Self1:03:25 Kirtan at a Funeral: Sound as Communal Holding1:06:15 Losing and Reclaiming Faith: The Reckoning with Tradition1:13:33 The Role of Trusted Counsel Through Doubt1:15:28 The Grammys and the Tension of Devotional Art in Industry1:21:37 Fame, Ego, and Staying on the Right Track1:25:40 Expanding Beyond Tradition: The Rise Album with Willow1:35:36 Art as Revolution and Service1:38:31 The Coldplay Concert and the Power of Mass Gathering1:43:17 Current Projects and Dreaming Bigger1:51:37 Closing Message: Make Space for Prayer Every Day___________✨MORE FROM JAHNAVI↳Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jahnavi_harrison↳YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/JahnaviHarrisonMusic↳https://www.jahnavimusic.com

In this episode of Success is Subjective, Joanna welcomes Theo Puccio, board-certified interventionist, care manager, and founder of ORCA Recovery. Raised in Brooklyn with dreams of becoming a lawyer, Theo seemed to be on a clear path to success—until substance use derailed his plans. After stepping away from college and entering treatment, he made the life-changing decision to stay in Colorado, where recovery became the foundation for a new purpose.Theo shares how those early experiences shaped his career helping young people and families navigate crisis, intervention, and recovery. He reflects on why character is built in the space between what we want to do and what we need to do, how he defines success by the respect of his peers rather than titles or possessions, and why he believes a meaningful gap year can change the trajectory of a young person's life.Theo's Resources: The ORCA Recovery WebsiteTheo Puccio on LinkedInConnect with Joanna Lilley  Therapeutic Consulting AssociationLilley Consulting WebsiteLilley Consulting on Facebook Lilley Consulting on YouTubeEmail: joanna@lilleyconsulting.com#TherapeuticConsulting #LilleyConsulting #Successful #TherapeuticPrograms #Therapy #MentalHealthMatters #MentalHealthAwareness #Podcast #PodcastCommunity #TheJourney #SuccessIsSubjectivePodcast #TheUnpavedRoad #PFCAudioVideo #OrchaRecovery #BehaviorIntervention #CharacterDevelopment #RecoveryJourney #Intervention

This is part 2 of my interview with George Wiseman, where we discuss Brown's Gas in applications such as Fuel Saving, Torch-Fuel Gas and Radioactive Neutralization (Part 1 all about the health benefits here). We explore how Brown's Gas: 1. neutralizes radioactive waste right at the reactor, 
 2. can literally make precious stones and metals from rocks, 
 3. reduces carbon-fuel consumption by 25% or better, 
4. helps make your OWN torch-fuel, 
 5. helps plants grow up to 10x FASTER, 6. can make Deuterium Depleted Water
, 7. helps bodies heal from virtually every ailment known to man, 
 8. helps wounds heal 3x faster, 9. optimizes health and performance, 
AND best of all… this technology can be made using WATER in your OWN HOME! 

 George Wiseman is an inventor, engineer, and founder of Eagle-Research, best known for his decades of work developing Brown's Gas technology for both energy and emerging wellness applications. Raised as a rancher's son in a remote, off-grid environment, George learned early how to build, repair, and survive with limited resources, which influenced his lifelong commitment to practical and reliable innovation. After leaving the ranch in the late 1970s, he pursued a path in alternative energy and automotive systems, eventually specializing in fuel efficiency and combustion technologies. In the 1980s, he began developing Brown's Gas systems that could significantly improve fuel economy and even replace traditional torch gases at a fraction of the cost. Over time, George's work took an unexpected turn as customers began reporting potential health-related effects from the technology—something he initially dismissed. Years later, after personally experimenting with the applications and witnessing growing anecdotal results, he shifted his focus toward exploring its broader potential and developed his at-home device, AquaCure. This mission became deeply personal following the loss of his wife after a long battle with Lupus, which intensified his commitment to sharing what he had learned. Today, George is driven by a singular goal: to make his technology accessible to as many people as possible.

Alisha Das didn't set out to become an angel communicator. Raised in a family of physicians and scientists, she was taught to question everything, seek evidence, and trust what could be measured. But from an early age, she also experienced something she couldn't explain—she began hearing the angels speak in what she describes as their own language. Rather than choosing between science and spirituality, Alisha spent more than three decades exploring the fascinating intersection of intuition, psychology, and personal transformation. Today, she helps people reconnect with what she calls their Angelic Ancestry—the idea that each of us has a direct connection to divine guidance, purpose, and something far greater than ourselves. She's the author of the new book, Your Angelic Ancestry: Discover Your Archangelic Name, Heritage, and Higher Purpose. and today we'll explore what that means, how angels communicate with us, and how reconnecting with this deeper wisdom can bring greater clarity, healing, and meaning to our lives.

As we continue in our study of Acts this week, we'll look at Acts 13:13-43. Paul and Barnabas continue their missionary journey and much of the passage is taken up by a sermon Paul delivers to the people of Antioch in Pisidia. What we find in his sermon is a reminder of what makes Christianity so compelling, so unique, and so trustworthy compared to other worldviews and religious systems: the resurrection of Jesus Christ.   The resurrection is the hinge of all human history, the great before and after. Before there was death and darkness, after is light and new life! As believers we are resurrected people, looking forward to eternity with Christ yet sure of that hope even now. This passage is an invitation to live in the confidence of the miracle of the resurrection.  Acts 13:13-43 Pastor Matthew McCleary, Associate Pastor Visit our website at www.fremontpres.org Email us at podcast@fremontpres.org

Raised in the country, she yearns for excitement, for power. When her father dies and her inheritance is threatened, Fulvia makes her way to Rome to forge her own fate.There she marries a young aristocrat named Clodius, who is more interested in his hedonistic pleasures than politics. Fulvia is drawn into his world of debauchery, and learns that the balance of power in the Republic is precarious. Her ambition drives them both to political power that draws the attention of the senate, as well as shadowy underworld opponents. The heart of the Empire proves to be a dangerous place, and Fulvia soon learns that her ambitions may come at a terrible cost. Kaarina will be answering your questions about the place of women in Ancient Rome, how to balance historical back with unique storytelling, and why historical fiction from a female perspective is so popular with contemporary readers.

In an unprecedented creative milestone, BAG Production Records announces the simultaneous release of eight new albums by acclaimed clarinetist, composer, and improvisational master Ben Goldberg on August 8."For me the number is basically eight," Goldberg notes, "on account of having eight letters in my first name and eight in my last name, and on account of having been born on 8/8."Recorded over the last several years, the "8 x 8" collection embodies Goldberg's evolving musical vocabulary, featuring exploratory cross-generational collaborations: Two duos, three trios, two quartets, and a quintet.A Legacy of Radical Improvised Music8 x 8 reflects decades of musical exploration. Raised in a household steeped in speech-communication research — a background that informs his rhythmically unique, speech-like phrasing — Goldberg honed his technique under clarinet master Rosario Mazzeo and studied with Joe Henderson and Steve Lacy.In the 1980s Goldberg's New Klezmer Trio (with drummer Kenny Wollesen), injected the raw, spatial energy of avant-garde jazz into traditional structures, leading to collaborations with artists including Andrew Hill, Nels Cline, Bobby Bradford, and John Zorn. This musical heritage is fully realized across the "8 x 8" collection, capturing the sheer velocity of his current creative circles.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

Can a woman be called by God to the priesthood, even if her church says no?

FULL SHOW NO ADS ON PATREON: www.patreon.com/dopeypodcast Episode Summary This week on Dopey's Greatest Hits! What may be the greatest Dopey episode of all time: the unbelievable story of tattoo artist, punk-rock survivor, bank robber and Dopey legend Shane Enholm. Before the replay, Dave announces that DopeyCon is officially happening October 3, celebrates the publication of his kratom piece in Rolling Stone, and reads a listener's story about Bristol's open heroin market. Then Shane's story begins. Raised by an addicted mother, arrested alongside her at 12 and homeless as a teenager, Shane hitchhiked across America before finding punk rock in late-1970s Los Angeles. He crossed paths with Darby Crash and the Germs, became involved with Crash's former girlfriend Casey, developed a devastating heroin addiction and began robbing pharmacies. After entering adult prison at 18, Shane escaped a Synanon-style treatment program and returned to heroin, cocaine and crime. When Shane and Casey lost custody of their children, he robbed his first bank with a toy gun. Over the next six months, he became the FBI's “Ponytail Bandit,” robbing 29 banks—including one $36,000 score—while financing an enormous heroin habit. Shane describes robbing banks with his children in getaway cars, a dye pack exploding inside a taxi, his arrest in San Francisco and the eight years and 23 days he subsequently spent in federal prison. Inside, he developed another heroin habit, dealt drugs, swallowed and concealed balloons of heroin, and survived the violent racial politics of high-security federal institutions. After prison, Shane found his daughters living in horrific conditions, regained custody and slowly attempted to rebuild his life. He survived hepatitis C, cirrhosis and bacterial endocarditis, found stability through methadone, recovery, tattooing and art, and eventually became a respected historian of antique tattoo machines. The episode ends with Shane performing “Making Mud Pies,” the heartbreaking song he wrote in prison about Casey, followed by Trinity's cover of “Good So Bad.” Plus more! more! more! on the new old Dopey show!   Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

British blues guitarist, singer-songwriter and Blues Hall of Fame inductee Will Johns has just released his sixth studio album, On Top of the World, and this September he'll publish his deeply personal memoir, Bluesdaddy: Born into Noise, Raised on Chaos and Saved by the Blues. The title says it all. Will was born into one of rock music's most legendary families. He's the son of famed producer and engineer Andy Johns, whose work can be heard on classic albums by Led Zeppelin and The Rolling Stones. His uncle is legendary producer and engineer Glyn Johns. His mother is Paula Boyd, making him the nephew of Pattie Boyd and Jenny Boyd. That also meant that George Harrison, Eric Clapton and even Mick Fleetwood were family. In fact, Eric wasn't just one of the greatest guitarists in history—he was Uncle Eric, and the man who inspired Will to play guitar. But Bluedayddy isn't a story about celebrity. It's a story about growing up surrounded by brilliance and addiction, fame and dysfunction, and ultimately finding salvation through the blues. Today, Will has built an impressive legacy of his own. He's been nominated for Best Original Blues Song at the British Blues Awards three years in a row, was inducted into the Blues Hall of Fame in Chicago in 2025, is currently touring with The Cream of Clapton Band, and this September he'll also perform at Eric Clapton's Crossroads Guitar Festival in Texas. In our conversation, we talk about what it was really like growing up inside one of rock's most famous families and finding his own voice as an artist.

Today on the Uplevel Dairy Podcast, Peggy Coffeen talks with Dr. Jared Risser of Dairy Veterinary and Management Services in Goshen, Indiana, about dairy veterinary work as a service-driven career built on trust and relationships. Raised on a Lancaster County, Pennsylvania dairy farm, Risser moved to Indiana in 2017, now serves a 50-mile radius with dairies ranging from 10 cows to 4,000, and describes being a “jack of all trades” for many smaller farms.He shares the variety of his days—herd checks, calvings, surgeries, advisory meetings—and a memorable rabies-suspect euthanasia case requiring lab testing after human exposure. Risser discusses how farm technology, especially activity monitoring systems and AI-assisted data analysis, is improving health detection and management decisions, and reflects on gains in components and productivity, humility in practice, and modeling service for his four-year-old son who sometimes joins farm calls.01:44 Jared's Dairy Roots03:41 Indiana Practice Bubble05:21 Trust on Farm06:15 Crazy Days on Call10:02 Service Meets Tech11:16 Data and AI Wins13:09 Health Monitoring Shift15:44 Future Production Limits19:14 AI for Vets20:52 Bringing Kids Along25:04 Legacy of Service26:45 Rapid Fire Wisdom30:03 Relationships Beyond Cows

This week, James Marriott speaks to the writer Lamorna Ash about her journey through the changing world of British Christianity. Raised with little religious belief, Lamorna spent a year visiting churches, festivals, monasteries and Christian communities across the country. What began as an investigation into why young people were rediscovering faith gradually became a much more personal search for meaning and belief. James and Lamorna discuss the decline of organised religion, the loneliness and uncertainty of modern life, and Christianity's surprising appeal to a new generation with diverse beliefs and politics. Is Britain witnessing a genuine religious revival? And could answers to very modern problems be found in our old, religious institutions?Next week, Sophia Smith Galer speaks to David Runciman, an honorary Professor of Politics at the University of Cambridge, about his very radical proposal to lower the voting age to six years old.GET IN TOUCH  * WhatsApp: 0330 123 9480  * Email: radical@bbc.co.ukEpisodes of Radical are released every Thursday and Monday.

Michael Carpenter grew up plowing mules and picking cotton in Hernando, Mississippi—one of ten children abandoned by his father at age three. Raised by loving grandparents and later embraced by a stepfather who showed him what acceptance looks like; Michael's journey took a dramatic turn on a drive to work when suicidal thoughts overwhelmed him. In his darkest moment, Michael tuned into Bott Radio Network and heard Chuck Swindoll teaching on the blood of Jesus. That broadcast led him to pull into a hospital emergency room and surrender his life to Christ. Today, Michael serves as a chaplain to troubled youth at a state-run facility—a ministry he's faithfully carried since 1994. He shares about forgiving his absent father, reconnecting broken family ties, and why he believes there's hope for America's next generation. This is a story about the power of Christian radio, the resilience of faith, and how God can redeem even the most painful beginnings.

In this episode of the RIA Edge Podcast, host David Armstrong speaks with Gregg George, founder and managing director of Crescent Grove Advisors, about how the firm grew to approximately $6 billion without acquisitions, outside investors or debt. Gregg shares how the firm builds relationships with executives and business owners before major liquidity events, maintains a low advisor-to-client ratio and develops a talent pipeline internally. He also explains how Crescent Grove protects its culture, expands family-office-style services, and uses technology and AI to improve operations while keeping advisors at the center of the client relationship. Gregg discusses The organic growth drivers that have worked for their firm—and the ones that haven't.  How the advisors prioritize the future value of a prospect over the immediate assets they bring into the firm How he thinks about client-to-advisor ratios and ensuring growth doesn't outpace capacity. Why the firm prefers a single point of contact for clients over a team-based approach. Avoiding the culture clash that can come with pursuing outside investment and acquisitions.

Rabbi Dr. Shmuly Yanklowitz is a prominent Orthodox rabbi, educator, and social justice activist, best known for founding multiple justice-oriented Jewish organizations and for his prolific writing on ethics and spirituality. Raised in an interfaith family, he chose Judaism as his religious path at a young age and eventually pursued rabbinic training and advanced academic study in ethics and moral development. He holds master's degree from Harvard and from Yeshiva University, a Ph.D. from Columbia, and rabbinic ordination from Yeshivat Chovevei Torah. In this episode, we discuss why he sees a need for improved social justice in the world and the role that Orthodox Jewry and his organization can play to effect change, the origins of his efforts to infuse kashrut standards with ethical consideration, how to combat antisemitism by living our mission in the world, treatment of immigrants and the homeless, igniting Jewish passion among the young through social actions, why we cannot align Torah values with political partisanship, how Jews should be strategic in partnering with potential supporters when it comes to Israel advocacy, reminding us of the many great partners that we have in the U.S., the need for spiritual advocacy in the Orthodox community, and the need to strengthen Jewish-Christian relations. Finally, he tells us about his forthcoming book: "Psalms Between Us: A Rabbi and His Christian Mother on Faith, Love, and Loss."

After spending more than three decades trying to suppress his sexuality, David Anderson reached a point where he could no longer ignore who he truly was. Raised in a conservative Southern Baptist environment, he prayed for years that being gay would simply disappear while building what appeared to be the perfect life—a 35-year marriage, four children, ministry, and a successful career.  In this deeply honest conversation, David shares the emotional cost of living behind a mask, the difficult decision to come out at 57, navigating a collaborative divorce, rebuilding relationships with his children, and discovering unexpected joy after embracing his authentic self. He also reflects on faith, family, finding love with his husband Peter, and why authenticity transformed every area of his life.  This episode is a powerful reminder that while coming out later in life is never easy, it's never too late to live honestly—and to find happiness you never thought possible.Takeaways1. Authenticity is worth the risk. After decades of trying to suppress who he was through faith, counseling, and sheer determination, David discovered that the freedom of living authentically transformed every area of his life—not just his relationships, but his confidence, career, and sense of self. 2. Coming out later in life affects the whole family—but healing is possible. David speaks candidly about navigating a collaborative divorce, supporting his former wife through the transition, rebuilding relationships with his children, and recognizing that everyone's journey toward acceptance unfolds on its own timeline. 3. Fear is often bigger than reality. For years, David believed coming out would destroy everything he loved. While the journey wasn't easy, he ultimately found deeper relationships, unexpected support, and a level of joy he never imagined possible. As he reflects, “All the fears… were not nearly as big as you thought.” Sound Bites“I prayed harder to not be gay than I've ever prayed for anything else.”“I spent years making myself smaller and smaller… until I became just a shadow of me.”“The biggest thing I gained after coming out? Me.”“All the fears were real—but they were never as big as I thought.”“I thought I was committed to marriage. Today, I'm committed to Peter.”“Everything got better. Everything."“What people loved was the person I was pretending to be.” “I didn't choose to be gay. I chose to be myself.” “I couldn't keep that box on the shelf anymore.”“I almost feel guilty about how happy I am.” “You're okay. You don't have to apologize for who you are.”Podcast website and resources: https://www.OutLateWithDavid.com YouTube Edition: https://youtu.be/loV6nfT9xYs YouTube Channel:   https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCvsthP9yClKI4o5LxbuQnOg Certified Professional Life Coach, David Cotton:  https://www.DavidCottonCoaching.com Contact me:  mailto:david@davidcottoncoaching.comhttps://www.DavidCottonCoaching.com https://www.OutLateWithDavid.com https://linktr.ee/davidacotton© 2026 David Cotton Coaching, LLC.

Bodies decay. So how can the dead possibly be raised? In 1 Corinthians 15:35–49, Paul points to the seed in the ground: what is sown is not what is raised. The same body — but imperishable, glorious, and infused with the Spirit of God.

What if someone who spent 15 years as a paramedic witnessed not only death—but the profound spiritual transition that follows it?In this eye-opening conversation, Sarah K. Grace shares how extraordinary psychic abilities emerged when she was only seven years old, long before she understood what she was experiencing. Raised in a conservative environment where those gifts were feared rather than embraced, Sarah spent decades hiding who she truly was.Everything changed when she became a paramedic. Standing beside countless people during their final moments, she began to see death differently—not as an ending, but as a sacred transition. Those experiences transformed her understanding of consciousness, the soul, intuition, healing, trauma, life purpose, and why we choose the lives we live before birth.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/next-level-soul-podcast-with-alex-ferrari--4858435/support.Take your spiritual journey to the next level with Next Level Soul TV — our dedicated streaming home for conscious storytelling and soulful transformation.Experience exclusive programs, original series, movies, tv shows, workshops, audiobooks, meditations, and a growing library of inspiring content created to elevate, heal, and awaken.

Back in 2017, I sat down with Anne Wilde, one of the foremost experts on modern-day polygamy. While I like to call her the First Lady of Fundamentalism, she has lived an incredibly unique life as an Independent Fundamentalist. For 33 years, Anne lived as the secret second wife of Ogden Kraut, a prolific fundamentalist author whose 65 books she personally helped write and edit. From the secret history of Mormon schisms to her own spiritual journey, you won’t want to miss this fascinating conversation! https://youtu.be/LH2zMt27kxM Don't miss our other conversations Shannon: https://gospeltangents.com/people/shannon-flynn Copyright © 2026 Gospel Tangents All Rights Reserved Check out a transcript of the interview on Amazon. Pick up a transcript of our conversation! Raised in the mainstream LDS Church, Anne later became an “Independent Fundamentalist” and lived for 33 years as the secret second wife of prolific fundamentalist author Ogden Kraut. This sweeping conversation covers everything from the hidden history of Mormon schisms to controversial theology and modern civil rights. Hidden History of Post-Manifesto Polygamy Many believe plural marriage ended abruptly with the LDS Church’s 1890 Manifesto, but Anne explains it was more like a sunset: “when does it get dark? It’s just gradually.” She points to an uncanonized 1886 revelation received by Church President John Taylor, which fundamentalists believe declared plural marriage an everlasting covenant that could not be changed. Consequently, polygamy continued underground and in places like Mexico and Canada. It took the 1904 Second Manifesto and the 1933 Third Manifesto—which enforced excommunication for those practicing plural marriage—to create a permanent rift between the mainstream church and fundamentalist groups. Untangling the Polygamous Sects One of Anne’s main goals is to dispel the myth that all polygamists are the same. She breaks down the diverse landscape of modern polygamy: The AUB (Apostolic United Brethren): With about 7,500 members, this group has a priesthood council and allows members more free agency in choosing their spouses. (Kody Brown of the TV show Sister Wives comes from this tradition.) FLDS (Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints): Notorious for the extreme one-man rule of Warren Jeffs, this group practices arranged marriages and strict dress codes. Anne notes that Jeffs’ oppressive control and habit of splitting up families has caused their numbers to plummet. Since he went to prison, the numbers are about 10% of what they were. Centennial Park: A breakaway group of about 2,000 members who separated from the FLDS because they wanted a priesthood council rather than a one-man dictatorship. Ervil LeBaron: Anne also discusses dangerous outliers like Ervil LeBaron, a militant polygamist who claimed his own priesthood authority and became an assassin responsible for roughly 20 deaths, including that of AUB leader Rulon Allred. Independent Fundamentalists: Anne identifies with this category—believers who adhere to early doctrines and plural marriage but choose not to affiliate with any centralized sect. Surprising Stances on Gay Marriage Despite their conservative theology, Anne reveals that many fundamentalists support the legalization of gay marriage. Viewing it through the lens of civil rights, she argues that if polygamists want the government to decriminalize their own family structures, they must grant the same free agency to the LGBTQ+ community. She also expressed deep disappointment with the LDS Church’s 2015 policy that temporarily barred the children of gay parents from being baptized, feeling it wrongly punished children. Anne Wilde’s Controversial Theology: Was Jesus a Polygamist? Anne Wilde and her late husband, Ogden Kraut, authored numerous books, including a highly popular 1969 text arguing that Jesus Christ was a polygamist. She suggests that the wedding feast at Cana was actually Christ’s own wedding, and that he was married to at least Mary, Martha, and Mary Magdalene. She also tackles difficult aspects of Doctrine and Covenants Section 132, such as the “Law of Sarah,” which ideally requires a first wife’s consent for subsequent marriages. However, Anne notes that if a first wife adamantly refuses to consent to a priesthood law, the husband is exempt from her approval and can marry anyway. Furthermore, she interprets the scriptural mentions of “concubines” not as sex slaves, but as lesser, non-covenant wives permitted by the customs of the era. Advocacy and the 2002 Olympics After living in secret for decades, Anne stepped into the public eye ahead of the 2002 Salt Lake City Olympics. Tired of seeing only bitter ex-members defining the narrative around plural marriage, Anne co-founded an advocacy group called “Principle Voices“. During the Olympics, they provided hundreds of press packets and fielded interviews with global media to offer a positive perspective on the lifestyle and to clearly distinguish themselves from the abuses of the FLDS church. Ultimately, Anne's story is a call for understanding. Whether you agree with her lifestyle or not, her experiences provide a rare, inside look at a marginalized community deeply woven into the fabric of Mormon history. Questions to ponder: 1. In what ways do the civil rights struggles of polygamists align with those of the LGBTQ+ community? 2. Why is it important to recognize the structural and cultural differences between various polygamous sects? 3. How does the “Law of Sarah” impact the balance of agency and power within a plural marriage? 4. What role does media representation play in shaping the narrative of marginalized or secretive religious communities?

In this episode of Narcissist Apocalypse, Barb shares the story of surviving a 22-year marriage to a raging, critical, coercive controller. Raised in purity culture and taught that a wife should defer to her husband, Barb believed she had found the man God intended for her when she met a charismatic church leader while living abroad. His confidence, painful childhood, inspiring words, and welcoming family made him appear safe. However, the early love bombing soon became a push-pull cycle of affection withdrawal, criticism, humiliation, and sudden rage that left Barb constantly trying to regain his approval. After they married, the control expanded into nearly every part of Barb's life. He criticized her appearance, language, parenting, emotions, rest, and personality while using religion, money, sexual coercion, intimidation, and threats involving their children to keep her trapped. Barb learned to watch his facial expressions for signs of an approaching rage, silence herself in public, and remain productive whenever he was nearby. She explains how therapy, documenting the abuse, and accepting that she could not make him change helped her finally leave, return to the United States with her sons, rebuild her career, and create a peaceful life where she is free to be herself. It's a story of rage, control, narcissistic abuse, religious abuse, financial control,  physical abuse, sexual coercion, sexual abuse, empathy, nitpicking, putdowns, autonomy, isolation, silencing, gaslighting, humiliation, withdrawing, push-pull dynamics, power dynamics, waling on eggshells, doubt, intimidation, threats, love bombing, parenting, minimization, circular conversations, confusion, emotional abuse, verbal abuse, promises to change, blame shifting, time control, and documenting.  CONTENT WARNING - THIS EPISODE DISCUSSES PHYSICAL ABUSE, SEXUAL COERCION, SEXUAL ABUSE, & THE CHANNELING OF THE ABUSER'S VOICE.

Happy Pot Luck Saturday! This week we're taking a nostalgic trip back to a childhood that looked very different from today. Before Google, smartphones, YouTube, and social media, so much of what shaped us came from the simple things: magazines in the waiting room, books from the library, classroom reading cards, puzzles at the kitchen table, and the freedom to be bored enough to let our imaginations take over. We're unpacking the forgotten ecosystem that quietly raised an entire generation and asking what we've gained, what we've lost, and what might be making a comeback. From the child psychologists behind the "Fun with a Purpose" philosophy to the surprising lessons hidden inside games like Hidden Pictures and Goofus & Gallant, Kev explores how these small moments built focus, curiosity, empathy, and a lifelong love of learning. PLS bonus! AI articles, the truth about negative online comments and bots and why physical books and magazines may be more attractive to this new gen.   Join us at our Canyon Ranch 2026 Retreat: https://www.canyonranch.com/lenox/retreats/heal-retreat-maria-menounos HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy's Page: Shop My Macy's Storefront EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/host ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos' passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.
