Today, on Karl and Crew, we kicked off our weekly theme, “Chivalry.” Dr. Fazale Rana, also known as Dr. Fuz, joined us to discuss how biochemistry points to God’s design, explaining that discoveries in DNA and the unique human capacities for altruism, empathy, and chivalry reflect what it means to be made in the image of God. Dr. Fuz is the President, CEO, and Senior Scholar at Reasons to Believe, a non-profit that focuses on revealing God in science. Next, Seth Troutt joined us to talk about authentic masculinity, explaining how men can reject counterfeits such as passivity and toxic masculinity by pursuing godly character, Christlike responsibility, and biblical chivalry. Seth is the Teaching Pastor at Ironwood Church in the Phoenix metro area and author of “Authentic Masculinity: Leaving Behind the Counterfeits for God’s Design.” We then had Hutz Hertzberg join us to talk about the growing hunger for Christ-centered education, explaining why parents are rethinking their children’s schooling and how classical Christian education offers an alternative rooted in biblical truth. Hutz is the chairman at Hope in Truth and currently the Chief Education Officer of Turning Point USA’s education arm, Turning Point Education.

On today's episode, I sit down with writer, messaging strategist, and Sweet Talk & Creative LivingFounder, Lois Mac, for a conversation about creativity, marketing, identity, and what happens when success starts pulling you away from the work you actually want to be doing. Lois shares how she went from growing up in a working-class family in England, to building a successful copywriting agency, to eventually walking away from a business that was approaching seven figures because she'd lost the part of herself that loved writing in the first place. We talk about unlearning the marketing rules we've all been taught, why so many women outsource their authority, how creativity impacts leadership and business, and what it looks like to build a brand around your voice instead of someone else's formula. This episode is for every ambitious woman who wants more than just revenue. It's for the women who want work that feels meaningful, creative, and fully their own.

At some point in all of our lives, we will experience Grief. Thanks to my next guest, we will now have the tools to manage it when it arrives. Kate Doerge — certified grief coach, founder of Penny's Flight Foundation, and author of Reimagining Grief (out June 16th) — has lost her father, her mother, and her daughter Penny at sixteen to neurofibromatosis-related glioblastoma.

After weeks of delays, the Senate passes legislation to fund Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Border Patrol and sends it to the House. AP correspondent Donna Warder reports.
A US-brokered ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon is already on the rocks. Hezbollah is rejecting terms, calling them "futile" and "humiliating". The armed militant group says the proposal is tantamount to surrender as Israeli strikes continue in southern Lebanon. The comments come after Israel and Lebanon announced a renewal of their fragile deal. Former US Army Major General Randy Manner told Heather du Plessis-Allan ceasefires haven't been holding, but even an attempt needs Hezbollah's backing. He says any two-way agreement that doesn't include the powerful third party isn't worth the paper it's printed on. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Tawny Kitaen steps Behind The Rope. In what is likely her last interview ever, Tawny is here to take, what is now deemed as, a total look back at her life. Tawny went to her first rock concert at age 14, saw how the singer's girlfriend got full VIP access and treatment and decided, “hey, I want that.” Tawny went out and made that happen. A rocker gal by nature, Tawny dated the guitarist from Ratt while in high school. From there she graduated, and “graduated”, by marrying Whitesnake's lead singer. Although they divorced years later, she is most notorious for being “that girl” in the Whitesnake video. With that career defining moment she went from “groupie” to wife and celebrity. Choreographer Paula Abdul took one look at Tawny's moves on the set of the Whitesnake video shoot and said, “you don't need my help” and left! Tawny graced our small screens with roles on many of our beloved shows including Seinfeld (who she also dated), Married...With Children and America's Funniest People. Before it was the “cool” thing to do, Tawny transitioned from “actress” to reality star starring in VH1s “The Surreal Life” and “Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew”. Speaking of Reality TV, who could forget Tawny's 2017 appearance on E's mega-hit Botched with Doctors Terry Dubrow and Paul Nassif. There was also that star studded role with Tom Hanks in Bachelor Party. Of course, being in the OC, we also talk the good and bad of RHOC.

Can transcendence still make philosophical sense after modernity? John Vervaeke speaks with philosopher William Desmond about Platonism as a living tradition, the meaning of strong transcendence, and Desmond's philosophy of the metaxu: the between. The conversation builds from John's proposal that relevance realization and transjectivity are philosophically grounded in Desmond's ontological account of the between. John begins by distinguishing modern psychological accounts of transcendence from the ancient and Platonic sense of strong transcendence. In this stronger sense, transcendence is not merely a better state of mind. It discloses truths that are otherwise unavailable and changes the knower's relation to reality. That claim challenges modern assumptions about flat ontology, the buffered self, representational cognition, and the fact-value split. Desmond responds through Plato. He presents Plato not as a dry theorist of two worlds, but as a philosophical artist of the between: a thinker of mimesis, eros, mania, dialogue, singularity, and participatory transformation. Plato's dialogues are not ornamental containers for arguments; their drama, characters, and dialogical movement are part of the philosophy itself. The later conversation opens into deep memory, imagination, eternity, possibility, God, Daoism, intercultural philosophy, pilgrimage, and the life-world. Desmond and Vervaeke converge on the need to move beyond the view from nowhere and return philosophy to transformative practice, embodied dwelling, and a richer contact with the sources of intelligibility. Key Insights Strong transcendence has epistemological and ontological significance, not only psychological benefit. The metaxu, or between, names a porous relation before, beneath, between, and beyond modern dichotomies. Modernity's fact-value split risks producing default atheism or default nihilism. Participatory knowing offers an alternative to treating cognition as internal representation of an external world. Plato's dialogical form is integral to his philosophy; the drama cannot simply be stripped away to extract arguments. Mimesis involves relation between image and original without collapsing their difference. Eros and mania point to two directions of transcendence: from below upward and from above downward. Deep memory is a source of imagination and ontological depth, not merely storage of past facts. Possibility should not be reduced to logical possibility; living possibility points toward enabling power. Pilgrimage and theoria are linked: philosophical transformation requires being on the way, not merely observing from nowhere.

In this sermon for Ascensiontide, the faithful are reminded that Christ's Ascension is not His departure from humanity but the exaltation of human nature itself, as Jesus ascends bodily to the right hand of the Father and prepares His Church for the coming of the Holy Spirit. Drawing from Scripture and the teachings of St. John Chrysostom and St. Seraphim of Sarov, the sermon presents Pentecost as the fulfillment of Christ's promise to baptize His people with the Holy Spirit and fire, establishing the Church as the living Body of Christ. Through Chrismation, every Christian experiences a personal Pentecost and is called to pursue “the acquisition of the Holy Spirit” through prayer, fasting, almsgiving, and every good work done purely for Christ's sake. Rejecting mere moralism and worldly recognition, the sermon calls believers to live in communion with God despite misunderstanding or opposition from the world, preparing their hearts during Ascensiontide to receive the Spirit of Jesus Christ, who has overcome the world and invites His people to reign with Him in the age to come.
“Walking into Ozaukee County and telling the jury that it was worth $40 million was completely unheard of. I mean, people thought I was crazy.” In this conversation with host Dan Ambrose, Al Foeckler sets the stage for his wrongful death case on behalf of the family of a woman who was buried alive when a retaining wall collapsed on her. In addition to the conservative nature of the jurisdiction, Al also faced Wisconsin's rules on damages in wrongful death cases: They are capped at $350,000 for adults and $500,000 for children, so value comes through showing pain and suffering. The case turned on a counterintuitive pre-trial decision: dropping the adult children's wrongful death claims after Big Data studies predicted doing so would nearly double the pain and suffering damages. Tune in to hear how Al won $15 million.Train and Connect with the Titans☑️ Al Foeckler | LinkedIn☑️ Cannon & Dunphy S.C | Facebook | Instagram | LinkedIn | X☑️ Trial Lawyers University☑️ TLU On Demand Instant access to live lectures, case analysis, and skills training videos☑️ TLU on X | Facebook | Instagram | LinkedIn☑️ Subscribe Apple Podcasts | Spotify | YouTube2026 Programming☑️ TLU Beach, June 3-6, Huntington Beach, CAEpisode SnapshotIn Wisconsin, wrongful death damages for adults are capped at $350,000 and for children at $500,000, so case value is built on establishing non-economic pain and suffering damages.Al's wrongful death case centered on a woman who died from injuries sustained after a retaining wall at the senior community where she lived collapsed on her.Six weeks before trial, the defense offered $176,000 each to the decedent's two adult children — just over the $350,000 wrongful death cap. But if accepted, the children couldn't testify about their loss. Rejecting it meant risking paying the defense's costs if the jury didn't beat the offer.A Big Data study showed that dropping the children's wrongful death claims would nearly double the predicted pain and suffering verdict, so Al restructured the case.When the judge barred Al's large-scale recreation of the retaining wall as a demonstrative exhibit, he relied on building the scene spatially in the courtroom instead.Al is launching lawyersinthearena.com, a plaintiffs-only newsletter featuring trial skills and war stories, and will present three workshops at TLU Beach – including a deep dive into this wall collapse case.Produced and Powered by LawPods

What if the reason you hold yourself back… isn't your personality at all? In this episode of the Dream Interpretation Podcast, Michael and Sandy break down a powerful series of dreams that all point to one hidden issue: rejecting masculine energy because of unresolved wounds connected to Dad. Through dreams about attractive men, collapsing apartment buildings, giant fish, forgotten names, aquariums, washing dishes with Dad, and family homes, the deeper pattern becomes clear: Feeling unsafe around masculine energy Holding yourself back from leadership Avoiding influence and boundaries Rejecting confidence, independence, and direction Mistaking self-protection for healing But the episode doesn't stop there. The dreams also reveal something incredibly hopeful: how healing actually begins. You'll see dreams where the feminine is finally "working for" the dreamer.

In Episode 68 of the Hollow Bunny Leadership podcast, "Shirts vs Skins," former police chiefs Kristen Ziman and Sylvia Moir dive into the ultimate trial of leadership: what to do when something goes wrong on your watch and the spotlight lands squarely on you. Rejecting the instinctual urge to protect the ego or retreat into "hollow" silence, they challenge leaders to face public scrutiny with thick skin and unshakeable character. Through a breakdown of their own decision-making frameworks – and a deep dive into an iconic pressroom scene from The American President – Kristen and Sylvia lay down a powerful blueprint for confronting accusations, distinguishing between mere noise and genuine accountability, and avoiding the trap of professional obfuscation. Tune in to learn how true leaders stop managing the damage and start leading the narrative with courage, truth, and decisive action.

On Episode 265, Josh, Chris, and Mark discuss the end‑of‑year scramble in K‑12 technology and a growing cultural moment - the Class of 2026's strong reaction to AI at college commencements. The guys dive into several stories affecting schools - cybercriminal deep‑fake sextortion attacks using student photos from public sites; a public GitHub repository that exposed highly privileged CISA credentials; and the ongoing fallout from the Instructure Canvas breach. The main topic explores why recent commencement speakers have been booed when addressing AI. Josh, Chris, and Mark unpack students' resentment, perceived academic hypocrisy (banning AI in coursework while urging graduates to use it in the workforce), fear over job displacement, and the pedagogical shifts already appearing in syllabi and assessment methods.

Testifying before Congress, Lindbergh challenges the administration's claim that technological advances make the United States more vulnerable to attack. He argues that air power actually enhances hemispheric defense by allowing the U.S. to intercept invading forces far offshore. Rejecting the "isolationist" label, he proposes a robust defense of the Western Hemisphere rather than the Rhine River. Lindbergh continues to hold massive rallies, where he adopts sharper rhetoric against "interventionists" and "defeatists." However, he begins to realize he is outmatched by Roosevelt'ssuperior political maneuvering and control over the national conversation. (6/8)1936

Joining the Project Purple Podcast from Indiana, pancreatic cancer survivor Beth Benedix has a deeply reflective and powerful conversation with host Dino Verrelli. A professor emerita of world literature, religious studies, and community engagement at DePauw University, Beth is also the founder of a nonprofit organization dedicated to bringing joy and creativity back into classrooms: an effort that reflects her lifelong passion for education and human connection. Diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in June 2020, Beth recounts her sudden diagnosis in the emergency room after experiencing severe back pain. What followed was an intense journey that included complications from testing, weeks in the hospital with pancreatitis, chemotherapy, and the Whipple procedure. Despite being declared in remission, Beth shares the emotional and physical toll of a recent recurrence, including the frustration of not being heard by medical professionals when new symptoms arose years later. Beth speaks candidly about advocating for herself within a healthcare system that can often feel dismissive, drawing parallels to the education system and the broader challenge of creating spaces where people truly feel seen and heard. Beyond her medical journey, she also reflects on identity, creativity, and the process of making meaning in the face of illness—through music, relationships, and the ways she stays grounded in connection. Rejecting the traditional “fight” narrative often associated with cancer, Beth advocates instead for individuality in how people navigate their diagnoses. Grounded in an existentialist perspective and inspired by Friedrich Nietzsche's idea to “become who you are,” Beth describes pancreatic cancer not only as a hardship, but as a vehicle for deeper self-understanding, connection, and even moments of unexpected beauty. From confronting fear and uncertainty to embracing joy, humor, and intentional relationships, Beth's story offers a profound meditation on what it means to live fully in the face of the unknown. Beth welcomes connection via email at bbenedix@depauw.edu. Subscribe to the Project Purple Podcast for more stories from the pancreatic cancer community.

Mark 6:14-29 I Andrew Murch I Killing the MessengerI. Killing the messenger won't stop the Truth.a. There is no neutrality regarding Jesus' identity. (14-15)b. Faithfulness to God requires boldness in the face of wickedness. (18)c. Rejecting the truth is a haunting prospect. (16-17, 19-20)II. At times, the wicked resist God by killing his servants.a. Sin sinks humanity into unthinkable depravity. (21-22, 24-25, 28-29)b. Sin bankrupts us one dollar at a time. (23, 26-27)Serving the true King comes at a great cost.
What would you do if a human skull fell out of your wall? During a routine renovation in 1978, homeowners in Batavia, Illinois, uncovered something no one expected to find behind plaster and beams: a human skull. What followed was decades of unanswered questions. Who was she? How did she get there? And why had no one come looking? With no clear identity and limited forensic tools at the time, the case went cold—until modern DNA technology reopened it in the early 2020s. What investigators uncovered was both heartbreaking and deeply unsettling. But that's only half the story. Kat then brings us back to 1776—where a young Quaker named Jemima Wilkinson died… and then didn't stay dead. What emerged from that feverish illness wasn't the same person, but a self-declared divine entity known only as the Public Universal Friend. Rejecting gender, identity, and even their own name, the Friend preached radical ideas of equality, abolition, and spiritual autonomy—decades ahead of their time. Was this a case of religious awakening, psychological transformation, or something far stranger? From human remains hidden in walls… to a prophet who claimed not to be human at all… this episode explores the thin line between history, mystery, and the truly unexplainable. Also in this episode: * The bizarre reality of 19th-century grave robbing * How modern DNA is solving centuries-old cold cases * A “Thing in the Middle” featuring the internet's funniest reactions to a bizarre deep-sea creature * And why Kat's mom may be the most chaotic phone caller alive If you love true crime, historical mysteries, and stories that make you say “wait… WHAT?”, this episode is for you.

Garth Heckman The David Alliance TDAgiantSlayer@Gmail.com #The brotherhood manifesto #TripleCsurvivor Canker sores Mark 6:10 Also He said to them, “In whatever place you enter a house, stay there till you depart from that place. 11 And whoever will not receive you nor hear you, when you depart from there, shake off the dust under your feet as a testimony against them. Assuredly, I say to you, it will be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city!” 1. Release Responsibility — You Are Called to Deliver, Not Convince Jesus draws a hard line: You are responsible for faithful delivery, not forced results. The disciples were sent to preach, heal, and proclaim—but not to argue people into belief. When rejection came, they weren't told to try harder… they were told to move on. Core truth: Rejection of the message is not failure of the messenger. This protects you from: Emotional burnout Needing validation Over-investing in resistant people Application (especially for you as a leader/coach): You can preach truth, coach men, build movements—but you cannot make a man receive it. Some people are assignments… others are distractions. 2. Refuse Contamination — Don't Carry What You Were Never Meant to Keep In Jewish culture, shaking dust off your feet was symbolic: “I will not even carry the residue of this place with me.” Jesus is teaching: Don't carry rejection into your next assignment Don't let offense poison your spirit Don't let one closed door affect your next open one Core truth: What you carry forward will either fuel you or infect you. If you don't “shake it off,” you'll bring: Bitterness into your next conversation Hesitation into your next opportunity Distrust into your next relationship Application: Every leader must develop the discipline of **emotional clearance**: Release the offense Drop the disappointment Refuse to rehearse the rejection You don't need closure—you need clean feet. 3. Recognize Judgment — Rejection of Truth Has Consequences Jesus says something intense: It will be **worse than Sodom and Gomorrah for those who reject the message. That means: Rejecting truth is not neutral Ignoring God's invitation is a serious decision Accountability increases with exposure Shaking the dust wasn't just emotional—it was a testimony: “You had your opportunity.” Core truth: Light rejected becomes judgment received. This gives weight to your mission: What you carry matters What people do with it matters even more Application: This should produce: Urgency in your message Clarity in your communication Peace in your departure You don't leave bitter—you leave **witnessing**. Closing Statement (Sermon Punch) “I will not beg where I was sent to bless. I will not carry what tried to bury me. And I will not stay where God said move.”

Natsai Audrey Chieza spent her youth in Zimbabwe in a close-knit extended family where she and her cousins were “in each others' pockets.” In her teenage years the national economy crashed, necessitating a family relocation to the UK, and she began learning the skill of “not belonging.” Architecture studies proved alienating so she found a way to combine them with her love of fashion (to the consternation of her professors.) Rejecting the prescribed path of a professional architect, she instead pursued a postgraduate program in Material Futures that set her on a path of designing with bacteria. Now, she's founded Faber Futures, a biodesign studio, and Normal Phenomena of Life, an artful lifestyle and fashion brand that also functions as a working prototype of a new model bioeconomy. She's spent her whole life quietly not doing what was expected of her, and in this space of outsiderness she's been very busy creating new paradigms for how we might collaborate with nature and new models for the equitable stewardship of these new biotechnologies. So, in terms of cultural infrastructure, she is an architect after all!
