During World War II, several thousand women served as concentration camp guards in Nazi Germany, particularly within the SS women’s auxiliary. These female guards—known as Aufseherinnen—were deployed mainly in camps like Ravensbrück (a women's camp), Auschwitz, Bergen-Belsen, and Majdanek. Recruited largely from working-class backgrounds, many were trained at Ravensbrück before being assigned to other camps. … Continue reading Episode 460: SS Women – Female Concentration Camp Guards

Click here to try it out!Welcome back to Bad Dads Film Review! This week, we're jumping into the gritty, morally murky corner of the galaxy far, far away with Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (2016), the first of Disney's standalone Star Wars films and one that dares to tell a story where the Force doesn't offer easy answers—and not everyone gets out alive.Directed by Gareth Edwards, Rogue One is set just before the events of A New Hope and follows Jyn Erso (Felicity Jones), the daughter of Imperial scientist Galen Erso (Mads Mikkelsen), who's coerced into building the Death Star. Recruited by the Rebel Alliance, Jyn finds herself at the heart of a desperate mission to steal the plans for the Empire's terrifying superweapon.What sets Rogue One apart is its tone—it's a war film through and through. There's mud, sacrifice, and a real sense of stakes. The ensemble cast includes Diego Luna as the morally grey rebel Cassian Andor, Donnie Yen as the Force-believing monk Chirrut Îmwe, Alan Tudyk voicing the reprogrammed Imperial droid K-2SO (a scene-stealer), and Ben Mendelsohn as the deeply petty but brilliantly acted villain Director Krennic.This isn't about Jedi or chosen ones. It's about regular people—fighters, spies, defectors, believers—laying down their lives for a cause they believe in, even if they won't live to see the outcome. That emotional weight gives the film a grounded, bittersweet tone that feels distinct within the Star Wars universe.Visually, Edwards brings a tactile realism to the film. The final battle on Scarif is one of the franchise's most spectacular sequences—land, sea, and space warfare colliding in chaos. And of course, there's that final hallway scene with Darth Vader, a terrifying, unforgettable burst of fan service done right.For those who've ever wondered what it really took to get the Death Star plans into Leia's hands, Rogue One answers with a powerful, self-contained story that expands the mythology while standing firmly on its own. It's bold, emotional, and a little darker than you might expect from a Star Wars film—which is exactly why we love it.This one's for the rebels.

Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer. Your prayers make a difference! If you're able, consider helping the Merkel family with medical expenses by donating to Lindsay's GoFundMe: https://gofund.me/b8f76890 Description: In episode 761: Recruited By A Demon Prince, Tony is joined by John, a former occultist whose story begins with childhood encounters that defy reason and ends in a radical deliverance only God could orchestrate. At age five, John was approached by a crowned, eight-foot-tall owl—later revealed to be Stolas, a high-ranking Prince of Hell. What followed was a descent into the darkest corners of spiritual warfare, including being taken to a throne room in hell, initiated through rituals, and taught ancient metaphysical practices by both demons and secret societies like the Rosicrucians. But this isn't just a story about darkness—it's about redemption. From casting spells into drugs and opening portals at festivals, to hearing the literal voice of God and building frequency-based technology meant to restrain the forces of hell, John shares how Christ shattered the chains of his past and put him on assignment to battle evil in a legalistic spirit realm. With shocking confessions, insider knowledge on spiritual contracts, and a prophetic call to prepare for the deception of the end times, this episode is not for the faint of heart—but it's exactly the wake-up call the Church needs.

Four decades ago, Cory Satterfield arrived on campus as a heralded right-handed pitcher from South Jersey. Recruited by Cal Koonce – a member of the 1969 Amazin' Mets – and later coached by 1982 Cy Young runner-up Mike Caldwell – Cory enjoyed a career capped by leading the Camels to their first Big South baseball title in 1988 and earning all-conference and all-tournament honors along the way. Thirty-seven years since he graduated, his name is still etched in the Campbell record books. He is still ranked among the program's top five all time leaders in wins, starts, complete games, innings pitched and strikeouts. Drafted by the St. Louis Cardinals in 1988, Cory played three seasons in the minors, earning Midwest League All-Star honors in 1989. After his playing career ended Cory began a teaching career in Harnett County and later Richmond County. He was twice honored as principal of the year and later served as assistant superintendent and interim superintendent of Scotland County schools. After retiring from administrative duties, he was elected to the Richmond County Board of Education in 2022 and continues to serve that organization. In addition to playing golf whenever he can, Cory is also a member of the Athletic Director's advisory board at his alma mater. In the next installment of Tales from the Creek, Cory Satterfield talks with Stan Cole about his journey to Campbell, being coached by two former major league pitchers, his deep connections with his teammates and to the Buies Creek community, and much more.

Connie Hawkins, simply stated, was a phenomenal basketball player. Inducted into the Pro Basketball Hall of Fame in 1992, his career was robbed of five years of his NBA career. And not just any five, the first five. Hawkins was a legend on the playground in New York City. Recruited to play college ball at the University of Iowa, he was wrongfully accused of being involved in a point-shaving scandal that ultimately cost him his college career, which then led to him being banned by the NBA. Instead, Hawkins hooked on with the newly formed ABL (American Basketball League) and the Pittsburgh Rens. However, the ABL didn't make it through its second season. From the ABL, Hawkins wound up playing with the Harlem Globetrotters and then found his way to another startup basketball league, the ABA (American Basketball Association). and the Pittsburgh Pipers. Finally, after two years in the ABA, the NBA lifted the ban on Hawkins after it realized its ban on him wouldn't stand up in court, and Hawkins finally realized his lifelong dream, a career in the NBA. Many say Hawkins was Dr. J. before there was a Dr. J., and that's what the NBA missed, and that's what Hawkins was robbed of. A no-doubt first-round talent, Hawkins made his way to the Phoenix Suns and wound up averaging 24.6 PPG in his first year with the team. But, by then, knee injuries had slowed him down. On this episode of Sports' Forgotten Heroes, author Mark Whited joins the show along with Sean Hawkins, Connie's grandson, as we look back at the legendary career of the "Hawk."

If you want to keep top talent, you need to know their dreams and consistently help them move toward those goals. I'll walk you through a framework to uncover what truly matters to your team and how to use that knowledge to create long-term retention. Episode Breakdown [00:00] Introduction – The concept of reverse recruiting and why retention starts with leadership. [01:00] Why Top Performers Are Hard to Keep – The best talent is always being recruited, and they won't stay unless they see a future with you. [02:30] The Power of Dream-Based Recruiting – How asking recruits about their long-term goals creates trust and connection. [04:00] People Stop Dreaming—Leaders Must Reignite It – The reality that most professionals stop thinking big, and how you can help them start again. [06:00] Asking the Right Questions – How to uncover a recruit's personal and professional goals with a simple two-question framework. [08:30] Why Most Leaders Miss This Opportunity – Many managers focus on company goals rather than individual dreams, leading to disengagement. [10:00] The Power of Context in Dream-Based Recruiting – How helping recruits see their 10-year future shifts their mindset. [12:30] Creating Buy-In and Loyalty – Why recruits stay with leaders who actively support their personal and professional growth. [14:00] Why Continuous Engagement Matters – How resurfacing a recruit's dreams over time strengthens their commitment to your team. [16:30] Retaining Talent in a Competitive Market – The reality that salary alone won't keep your best people—you need to offer more. [19:00] Final Thoughts & Actionable Takeaway – A challenge to start practicing dream-based recruiting with your current team. Key Takeaways Retention Starts with Leadership – Your top performers will stay if they believe you care about their long-term success. Reverse Recruiting Works – The best way to keep talent is by recruiting them to their own dreams—within your organization. Dreams Create Motivation – People stop dreaming as they settle into careers. Great leaders help reignite their vision. The Right Questions Unlock Loyalty – Asking where someone wants to be personally and professionally in 10 years builds deep connection. Continuous Engagement Builds Retention – Leaders who consistently revisit a recruit's dreams foster loyalty and long-term commitment. Retention isn't about offering the highest salary—it's about helping people achieve their dreams. If you become the leader who champions your team's goals, you'll not only retain your top performers but also create an environment where they thrive. Start today by asking your current team about their long-term dreams, and use that insight to strengthen your leadership and recruiting efforts. Want to improve your retention strategy?

The Not Ready for Prime Time Podcast: The Early Years of SNL
My SNL Story is back and we're talking with Gary Kroeger. Recruited by the show in the fall of 1982, just weeks prior to the start of Season 8, Gary was a cast member on SNL for three seasons, helping close out the Dick Ebersol era. Gary offers an insider's perspective on one of the most underappreciated and less talked about eras in the show's history, sharing stories about how Saturday Night Live came to him, being asked to “light a fire” under Eddie Murphy, and what it was like competing for airtime with the likes of Martin Short, Billy Crystal, and Christopher Guest. In addition, we discuss many of his memorable sketches & characters, how he ingratiated himself with the “all stars” of S10, his favorite (and perhaps not-so-favorite) hosts, and the lasting lessons he's carried with him from his time on the show. And yes...we also talk about a certain “viral” moment that has sparked a lot of discussion from the SNL50 celebration.---------------------------------Subscribe today!Follow us on social media: X (Twitter): NR4PTProjectBluesky: nr4ptproject.bsky.socialInstagram: nr4ptprojectFacebook: The Not Ready for Prime Time ProjectContact Us: Website: https://www.nr4project.comEmail: nr4ptproject@gmail.com
