Donald Westlake — writing as Richard Stark — said only one movie made from a Parker novel "got the feeling right." That's John Flynn's The Outfit (1973), starring Robert Duvall as Earl Macklin, out of prison to find his brother murdered by the mob over a bank job. Rather than run, Macklin runs at them, hitting every vulnerable Outfit operation until they pay. Joe Don Baker and Karen Black co-star alongside a murderer's row of noir faces: Robert Ryan, Marie Windsor, Jane Greer, Timothy Carey, and Elisha Cook Jr.Jedidiah Ayres and Gary Phillips join Mike to dig into Westlake's dual-track career, the Parker adaptations from Point Blank to Play Dirty, Flynn's flat-and-mean style, and the film's year-long crawl across America courtesy of MGM's "smiling cobra" James Aubrey. Released in celebration of Arrow Video's new Limited Edition Blu-ray — featuring a commentary track by Mike and Jedidiah.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-projection-booth--5513239/support.Become a supporter of The Projection Booth at http://www.patreon.com/projectionbooth
The Nolan Wells 911 call has divided everyone who has listened to it — not over what the caller says, but over what may or may not be audible behind him. Tony plays the complete recording and takes the dispute head on.The facts of the call are settled. Released by the Mississippi Department of Marine Resources, it captures a teen reporting a failed bilge pump at the west tip of Horn Island around 4 p.m. on July 4th, asking for a tow, and coordinating with the owner of a second boat to pull the plug while underway. A dispatcher runs the standard checks. Everyone aboard is confirmed accounted for — seven people. GPS shows the boat leaving the island at 4:31.The dispute lives in the background. In the commotion recorded under the hold music, some listeners report a muffled voice — they believe a female one — asking a question that would mean this call captured far more than a boat emergency. Other listeners, working from the same file, report nothing of the kind. No enhancement has produced a version both sides accept. The disagreement has turned a routine tow request into the most replayed piece of audio in the case.The stakes come from the timeline around it. Nolan Wells was last reported seen on the island roughly an hour before the call. He was found dead two days later, in the water near where his group last saw him. His family's independent autopsy came back undetermined. The state's report is sealed until a grand jury takes the case.Tony walks through the entire recording — the clear audio, the contested seconds, and the honest limits of what any of it proves.END_LINKSJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Final Fantasy V got a sequel, but it's not the kind you'd expect. Released as a four-part anime OVA in 1994, Final Fantasy: Legend of the Crystals takes place 200 years after the SNES game and follows a new cast of heroes trying to protect the elemental crystals. Despite its connection to Final Fantasy V, this OVA looks, sounds, and often feels detached from the game that inspired it. In this episode, we explore the anime's unusual production history, Hironobu Sakaguchi's limited involvement, director Rintaro's radically different artistic approach, the bizarre English localization, and whether this forgotten sequel captures any of the spirit of Final Fantasy at all. Have you seen Legend of the Crystals? And does it deserve to be remembered—or was it forgotten for a reason?
The family of 18-year-old Nolan Wells announced that independent autopsy results list Nolan’s cause of death as “undetermined.” The autopsy, conducted in Washington D.C. and outside the jurisdiction of Mississippi officials, was also unable to determine the time or even day of his death. There were, however, some interesting details, including “red discoloration” on the back of Nolan’s head, but without several organs that were removed during the first autopsy, the pathologist could not rule out foul play, raising more questions as to what happened to the college teen during a Fourth of July weekend of partying with friends.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this lesson from the Gate of Repentance (Shaar HaTeshuvah), Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explores one of the most compassionate principles of Jewish thought: teshuvah is deeply personal. Not everyone possesses the same knowledge, temperament, emotional resilience, or physical ability. Just as the courts in the Temple era evaluated each individual before administering punishment according to what they could physically endure, so too every person's path of repentance must be tailored to their unique circumstances. There is no universal formula for returning to Hashem. The wise mentor or teacher must understand the individual and guide them according to their strengths, limitations, and spiritual capacity.Rabbi Wolbe emphasizes that authentic spiritual growth requires knowing ourselves honestly. Some people thrive through physical discipline, while others would become discouraged by overly demanding practices. Acts of self-restraint—such as limiting physical pleasures, fasting occasionally, or taking on other personal challenges—are valuable only when they genuinely help a person grow closer to Hashem. He shares personal examples, including his own dislike of cold weather and his son's willingness to embrace cold-water challenges, illustrating that every individual must choose the path that strengthens their own character rather than imitate someone else's. Teshuvah is not measured by comparing ourselves to others, but by becoming the best version of ourselves.The episode concludes with one of the Talmud's most moving stories: Rabbi Elazar ben Dordaya, whose lifetime of immorality was transformed by a single moment of complete, heartfelt repentance. After realizing that no one else could intercede on his behalf, he turned directly to Hashem with overwhelming sincerity. At that moment, a Heavenly voice proclaimed that he had earned a place in the World to Come. Rabbi Wolbe explains that Judaism's unique approach to repentance requires no intermediaries, no confessional, and no human absolution. Every Jew has direct access to the Almighty. No matter how far a person has fallen, a sincere return to Hashem has the power to erase a lifetime of mistakes and restore an intimate relationship with the Creator._____________This Episode is Dedicated Anonymously to the I'lui Neshama of העשל בן יצחק הכהןThis Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Peter & Becky BotvinRecorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on December 15, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on July 21, 2026_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired!

This week on Born to Watch, it's time for our Air Force One Movie Review, the movie review podcast where we don't take the movies or ourselves too seriously. Whitey, G-Man, and Will the Worky climb aboard one of the most patriotic action films ever made, as Harrison Ford swaps his whip and fedora for the Oval Office and proves that sometimes the President really can save the day.Released in 1997 and directed by Wolfgang Petersen, Air Force One became one of the biggest blockbusters of the year, delivering a simple but irresistible premise. Terrorists hijack the President's plane, take his family hostage and quickly discover they've picked a fight with a Commander-in-Chief who just happens to be a Medal of Honour recipient.The boys dive into whether this 90s action favourite still holds up almost three decades later, or whether nostalgia is doing most of the heavy lifting.Harrison Ford once again proves why he remains one of Hollywood's greatest accidental heroes. Whether he's Han Solo, Indiana Jones, Dr Richard Kimble or President James Marshall, Ford has a knack for making ordinary people believe they can survive extraordinary situations. The team discusses why his grounded style works so well and why he's able to elevate even the most over-the-top action movies.Of course, no discussion of Air Force One would be complete without Gary Oldman. His performance as terrorist Ivan Korshunov is as intense as ever, even if the boys question whether one of cinema's greatest actors deserved a stronger script. Along the way, they celebrate Oldman's incredible career, from Leon and True Romance through to The Dark Knight, Darkest Hour and beyond.As always, the movie quickly becomes secondary to the ridiculous questions that only Born to Watch can ask.Just how many parachutes does Air Force One actually carry?Why is everyone smiling after jumping out of a plane somewhere over Kazakhstan?Does a 1997 satellite phone really keep working at 20,000 feet?Why is there an endless supply of drinks hidden in the cargo hold?And how exactly does one MiG fighter somehow survive an entire squadron attack just so the movie can have one more action sequence?The crew also takes aim at some wonderfully cheesy taglines, debates whether this is one of cinema's greatest presidential action thrillers, and wonders if Australians will ever truly understand America's obsession with the presidency.Elsewhere, G-Man delivers another outstanding Ordinary People segment, covering Harrison Ford, Gary Oldman, Glenn Close and a cast full of "that guy" character actors you've seen in dozens of movies. There's also a look back at the massive year that was 1997, including Titanic, Men in Black, The Lost World: Jurassic Park and Good Will Hunting.Hit, Sleeper or Dud returns with another trio of recommendations, including Wesley Snipes' underrated Murder at 1600, the Spanish original that inspired Vanilla Sky, and one of the greatest movie titles ever discovered in the Dud category.As always, expect plenty of laughs, terrible impressions, completely unnecessary tangents, and more than a few moments where the logic of Hollywood action films is left hanging out the side of the aircraft.So buckle up, secure your tray table, prepare for decompression, and remember one thing...Get off my podcast!If you enjoy what we do, we'd love your support.

In this lesson from the Gate of Repentance (Shaar HaTeshuvah), Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe addresses a practical question that many people ask: How can someone possibly repent for years of repeated mistakes? What about a lifetime of speaking lashon hara, neglecting mitzvos because of poor upbringing, or simply never having learned the proper way to serve Hashem? The Orchot Tzaddikim reassures us that teshuvah is never beyond reach. Every individual is unique, with different strengths, weaknesses, backgrounds, and circumstances. Therefore, repentance is not a one-size-fits-all process. Each person must find the path that best enables them to grow closer to Hashem according to their own abilities and spiritual makeup. A central theme of the episode is that teshuvah is built by strengthening our strengths rather than becoming overwhelmed by our failures. Rabbi Wolbe explains that if fasting or physical hardship would weaken a person's Torah study or service of Hashem, then it is not the appropriate form of repentance for that individual. Instead, the Torah teaches us to increase kindness, truth, Torah learning, heartfelt prayer, humility, volunteering, and helping others. Quoting King Solomon's words, "With kindness and truth, sin is atoned," Rabbi Wolbe emphasizes that positive action transforms a person's spiritual standing. He also cautions against the endless distractions of modern life—from constant news consumption to unnecessary entertainment—that prevent honest self-reflection and meaningful growth. The lesson concludes with a powerful call to create regular moments of solitude and introspection. Rabbi Wolbe shares the practice of hisbodedus—setting aside uninterrupted time to speak with Hashem, reflect on one's life, express gratitude, seek forgiveness, and deepen one's relationship with the Creator. He recalls his grandfather's yeshiva, which even had a dedicated room for quiet contemplation free from every distraction. Finally, Rabbi Wolbe offers an inspiring perspective on current events, reminding us that despite the turmoil in the world, we should focus on recognizing Hashem's countless miracles and expressions of love. Rather than living in fear, we should view these moments as opportunities to strengthen our trust in Hashem, increase our acts of kindness, and continue drawing ever closer to Him. _____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Peter & Becky BotvinRecorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on December 15, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on July 20, 2026_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired!

In this episode of the Thinking Talmudist Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe continues exploring the Gemara in Tractate Ketubot, uncovering profound lessons about charity, human dignity, empathy, and trust in Hashem. Building on the previous discussion of anonymous giving, the Gemara recounts the generosity of Mar Ukva, who quietly supported a poor neighbor every year before Yom Kippur. When his son observed the recipient enjoying expensive aged wine, Mar Ukva's response was startling: rather than reducing his gift, he doubled it. Rabbi Wolbe explains that true tzedakah is not merely about meeting a person's minimum needs, but about understanding the life they once lived and the emotional pain caused by losing it. The Torah commands us not only to give, but to deeply appreciate another person's unique circumstances and preserve their dignity. The Gemara then examines the extraordinary generosity of Mar Ukva at the end of his life, when he reviewed his charitable giving and concluded that he had not done enough. Rabbi Wolbe uses this discussion to distinguish between ma'aser (tithing)—the portion of one's income entrusted to us by Hashem for distribution—and voluntary charity beyond the tithe. Through practical examples and inspiring stories, he illustrates that generosity is measured not by the absolute amount given, but by the proportion of one's means and the sincerity of one's heart. The episode also explores the halachic balance between giving generously and maintaining responsibility for one's own family's financial well-being. Rabbi Wolbe concludes with moving personal stories that demonstrate the incredible power of bitachon (trust in Hashem) and faithful tzedakah. He recounts the story of a struggling sofer who committed to giving twenty percent of his income despite having almost nothing, only to witness immediate and life-changing Divine blessing. He also shares remarkable experiences of donors whose acts of generosity were met with extraordinary providence. The overarching message is timeless: we often believe that holding onto money creates security, but the Torah teaches the opposite. Hashem entrusts resources to those who faithfully become channels of blessing for others. When we loosen our grip and allow Hashem to guide our generosity, we discover that true wealth is measured not by what we keep, but by what we faithfully give._____________The Thinking Talmudist Podcast shares select teachings of Talmud in a fresh, insightful and meaningful way. Many claim that they cannot learn Talmud because it is in ancient Aramaic or the concepts are too difficult. Well, no more excuses. In this podcast you will experience the refreshing and eye-opening teachings while gaining an amazing appreciation for the divine wisdom of the Torah and the depths of the Talmud._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by David & Susan MarbinRecorded at TORCH Meyerland in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on May 15, 2026, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on June 30, 2026_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/thinking-talmudist-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1648951154Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0cZ7q9bGYSBYSPQfJvwgzmShare your questions at aw@torchweb.org or visit torchweb.org for more Torah content._____________About the Host:Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Director of TORCH in Houston, brings decades of Torah scholarship to guide listeners in applying Jewish wisdom to daily life.

Through practical examples and inspiring stories, he illustrates that generosity is measured not by the absolute amount given, but by the proportion of one's means and the sincerity of one's heart. The episode also explores the halachic balance between giving generously and maintaining responsibility for one's own family's financial well-being. Rabbi Wolbe concludes with moving personal stories that demonstrate the incredible power of bitachon (trust in Hashem) and faithful tzedakah. He recounts the story of a struggling sofer who committed to giving twenty percent of his income despite having almost nothing, only to witness immediate and life-changing Divine blessing. He also shares remarkable experiences of donors whose acts of generosity were met with extraordinary providence. The overarching message is timeless: we often believe that holding onto money creates security, but the Torah teaches the opposite. Hashem entrusts resources to those who faithfully become channels of blessing for others. When we loosen our grip and allow Hashem to guide our generosity, we discover that true wealth is measured not by what we keep, but by what we faithfully give._____________The Thinking Talmudist Podcast shares select teachings of Talmud in a fresh, insightful and meaningful way.

In this lesson from the Gate of Repentance (Shaar HaTeshuvah), Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explains the concept of "Teshuvas HaMishkal"—repentance through restoring spiritual balance. Every sin creates an imbalance in a person's character and relationship with Hashem. Therefore, genuine teshuvah often requires moving in the opposite direction to repair the damage. If a person indulged excessively in physical pleasures, they should practice restraint. If they abused food, drink, wealth, or other worldly enjoyments, they should consciously limit those same areas to rebuild self-control. Rabbi Wolbe emphasizes that the goal is not self-punishment but restoring proper spiritual equilibrium. A central theme of the episode is that Hashem's greatest desire is not punishment, but relationship. Rabbi Wolbe beautifully explains that repentance begins with a profound realization: Hashem was present the entire time. The greatest gift in life is a close relationship with the Almighty, and every act of teshuvah is simply returning to the One who has been patiently waiting for us all along. Through examples from the Talmud, King David, Adam HaRishon, and Menasheh, one of the most sinful kings in Jewish history, Rabbi Wolbe demonstrates that no matter how serious a person's mistakes may be, the gates of repentance remain open. As long as life remains, Hashem eagerly awaits our return. The lesson concludes with practical guidance for personal growth. Rabbi Wolbe teaches that small acts of self-restraint—delaying a meal, walking instead of taking the easier path, or choosing simplicity over indulgence—strengthen the soul's ability to overcome greater temptations. More importantly, every difficulty we experience can become an opportunity for introspection rather than frustration. Whether a minor inconvenience or a significant life challenge, each moment invites us to ask, "What is Hashem teaching me?" Rather than viewing hardship as punishment, we can see it as a loving reminder that Hashem desires our closeness. His patience is limitless, His compassion is constant, and His greatest wish is that we simply come home. _____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Peter & Becky BotvinRecorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on December 15, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on July 19, 2026_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired!

Jeffrey Epstein's relationships with Michael Wolff, Bill Clinton and Bill Gates differed in purpose and duration, but each demonstrates how Epstein sought access to influential people who could enhance his legitimacy. Wolff developed an unusually close source relationship with Epstein, conducting extensive interviews and exchanging emails with him over several years. Released correspondence suggested that Wolff sometimes moved beyond simply gathering information and offered Epstein advice about media strategy, particularly concerning Donald Trump and questions about Epstein's past. Wolff has defended the contact as an aggressive journalistic effort to extract information from a uniquely knowledgeable source, but the tone of some exchanges raised questions about whether the relationship became too collaborative. Clinton's connection to Epstein was more public and socially advantageous to Epstein. After Clinton left office, he traveled aboard Epstein's aircraft on multiple international trips connected to humanitarian and Clinton Foundation work, accompanied by staff, supporters and, according to Clinton's office, Secret Service personnel. Epstein also cultivated connections within Clinton's political and philanthropic circle, while Clinton has maintained that he knew nothing about Epstein's criminal conduct and ended contact years before Epstein's 2019 arrest.Epstein's relationship with Bill Gates began much later, after Epstein had already pleaded guilty in Florida and become a registered sex offender. Gates met with Epstein repeatedly beginning in 2011, largely during discussions about philanthropy, global health initiatives and the possibility that Epstein could help attract wealthy donors to major charitable projects. Gates later acknowledged that the meetings were a serious error in judgment and said Epstein never delivered the philanthropic funding he claimed he could assemble. More recent congressional testimony and released communications have added another dimension, with Gates saying Epstein learned private information about his extramarital affairs and later made what Gates characterized as veiled threats to expose them. Gates has denied Epstein's more sensational allegations and has not been accused of participating in Epstein's crimes. In all three relationships, Epstein appeared to benefit from proximity itself: Wolff offered access to the media and political intelligence, Clinton supplied enormous prestige and international credibility, and Gates connected Epstein to the highest levels of technology and global philanthropy.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Four-time Pro Bowler. 85 catches. 1,013 yards last season in New England — coming off a torn ACL playing only 55% of snaps. Found not guilty in May. Released by the Patriots purely for cap reasons. And right now, he's the most proven, most productive wide receiver still available in the entire NFL. He's a four-time Pro Bowler with elite route running, a short area game that Kyle Shanahan would absolutely weaponize, and the kind of experience that makes a young receiver room better just by being in the building.
In this lesson from the Gate of Repentance (Shaar HaTeshuvah), Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe continues discussing the third protective fence of teshuvah: developing self-control by moderating physical pleasures. The Orchot Tzaddikim teaches that holiness is not achieved through deprivation, but through balance and restraint. Rabbi Wolbe explains that Judaism does not advocate excessive fasting or denying ourselves life's legitimate pleasures. Rather, it encourages us to enjoy Hashem's blessings responsibly while resisting the urge to indulge every desire. Whether it is food, drink, comfort, or entertainment, learning to leave "a little on the table" strengthens our ability to control ourselves when faced with greater spiritual challenges. A central theme of the episode is that the Yetzer Hara rarely begins with outright sin. Instead, it first encourages a person to overindulge in what is completely permissible, gradually weakening self-discipline until forbidden behavior no longer feels so distant. Rabbi Wolbe illustrates this principle through contemporary examples of overeating, unhealthy lifestyles, internet temptations, and financial dishonesty. The evil inclination succeeds incrementally, never demanding major wrongdoing at first, but slowly blurring the line between moderation and excess. The antidote is cultivating restraint in the areas that are permitted, because a person who can master legitimate desires is far better equipped to resist prohibited ones. The lesson concludes with a practical exercise in building the muscle of self-control. Rabbi Wolbe recalls his grandfather's advice to overcome one's impulses several times each day—even in completely permissible matters. Delaying a sip of tea, taking one less bite of dessert, or resisting the urge to react immediately helps train the soul to remain in control rather than being controlled by impulse. This discipline extends far beyond eating; it strengthens a person's ability to control anger, desire, speech, and every other area of life. Rabbi Wolbe beautifully concludes by reminding listeners that Torah is unlike any material possession: when we share Torah, nothing is lost. Like one candle lighting another, the light only multiplies. Our mission is not merely to acquire Torah, but to illuminate the world by sharing it with others. _____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Peter & Becky BotvinRecorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on November 24, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on July 17, 2026_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired!

In this lesson from the Gate of Repentance (Shaar HaTeshuvah), Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe continues discussing the importance of building personal safeguards to protect ourselves from sin. The Orchot Tzaddikim teaches that every person possesses a unique set of strengths and weaknesses. One individual's greatest challenge may be material temptation, while another struggles with inappropriate sights, gossip, anger, excessive entertainment, or other distractions. The path to spiritual growth begins with honest self-awareness. Rather than pretending every temptation affects us equally, we must identify our personal vulnerabilities and proactively create boundaries that keep us from stumbling. A central theme of the episode is that true wisdom lies in avoiding temptation, not merely resisting it. Rabbi Wolbe explains that the righteous throughout Jewish history understood their own nature and deliberately structured their lives to avoid situations that could compromise their spiritual integrity. Applying this principle to modern life, he discusses practical examples such as internet use, pornography, gambling, compulsive shopping, unhealthy entertainment, and excessive time spent on sports or other distractions. The Yetzer Hara is highly personal—it attacks each individual differently. Therefore, each person must build customized spiritual "fences" designed specifically for their own challenges rather than someone else's. The lesson concludes by contrasting Avraham Avinu and King David, illustrating that even the greatest spiritual giants battled the Yetzer Hara in different ways. Avraham's evil inclination eventually "made peace" with him because of his unwavering discipline and consistency, while King David faced an ongoing, intense struggle that required constant vigilance and self-mastery. Rabbi Wolbe shares a beautiful story about Rabbi Aharon Leib Steinman, who humorously referred to his Yetzer Hara as his lifelong companion, reminding us that the battle never truly ends. Victory does not come from pretending temptation doesn't exist, but from recognizing it, respecting its power, and consistently choosing holiness over impulse. Every Jew is called to know their Yetzer Hara, prepare for it, and ultimately overcome it through wisdom, discipline, and closeness to Hashem._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Peter & Becky BotvinRecorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on November 24, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on July 16, 2026_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired!

Liam Neeson has spent the last decade dancing between genres like a seasoned circus performer, trading his gravitas‑laden dramatic roots for the gleeful chaos of action mayhem. One moment he's growling threats into a flip phone, the next he's wrestling wolves or popping up in a spoof like The Naked Gun. By 2026, he's added yet another feather to his already overstuffed cap: horror‑comedy. In Cold Storage, Neeson strides into the fray as if he's been waiting his whole life to battle a government‑bred fungus with a bad attitude.According to the tale spun on IMDb, a top‑secret lab misplaces a highly dangerous fungus—because of course it does—and suddenly a retired bioterrorism agent is yanked back into service. He teams up with two plucky young employees of a storage facility to face an enemy that can't be seen, reasoned with, or politely asked to stay in its containment chamber. It's part zombie romp, part disaster spectacle, and entirely the sort of bureaucratic blunder that makes you wonder who keeps approving these fictional government budgets.Guided by director Jonny Campbell and penned by screenwriter‑producer David Koepp, the film pairs Neeson with Joe Keery of Stranger Things fame and Georgina Campbell from Barbarian, plus a delightful appearance by Vanessa Redgrave. Released in just over a thousand theaters—including IMAX, for those who prefer their fungal horrors larger than life—the movie crept into cinemas appropriately on Friday the Thirteenth, February 2026, for a limited run. Now your cohosts dive into this quirky creature feature to share their thoughts, their laughs, and perhaps their newfound fear of refrigerated storage units.
In this lesson from the Gate of Repentance (Shaar HaTeshuvah), Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe continues discussing the importance of building personal safeguards to protect ourselves from sin. The Orchot Tzaddikim teaches that every person possesses a unique set of strengths and weaknesses. One individual's greatest challenge may be material temptation, while another struggles with inappropriate sights, gossip, anger, excessive entertainment, or other distractions. The path to spiritual growth begins with honest self-awareness. Rather than pretending every temptation affects us equally, we must identify our personal vulnerabilities and proactively create boundaries that keep us from stumbling.

The UK government has become so ideologically captured, they will need to rewrite a 1971 law before they can deport Shabir Ahmed, ringleader of the Rochdale child grooming gang who was set free on early release this month. Nick Freitas, retired Green Beret and author of The Manbook, just returned from the UK and tells Dr. Drew how a once-great country ended up with a two-tier justice system. Ahmed was sentenced in 2012 to 22 years for multiple offenses as the leader of a gang that targeted girls in Rochdale. Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood said that to deport Ahmen, first the UK government must change Section 7 of the Immigration Act 1971, which currently shields Commonwealth nationals who arrived before 1973 from removal. Nick explains what institutional capture looks like when protecting a narrative outranks protecting children. Also on today's show: Wynton Hall — managing editor of Breitbart News and author of CODE RED: The Left, the Right, China, and the Race to Control AI — on the US-China AI arms race. Hall argues that as the US restricts its most powerful models over safety concerns, China is racing ahead and using American AI tools to run influence operations. Nick Freitas is the author of The Manbook: A Point-by-Point Guide to Sucking It Up and Getting the Job Done. A retired US Army Special Forces (Green Beret), he served two tours in Iraq after service with the 82nd Airborne and 25th Light Infantry Divisions.

In day 164 of the Jewish Inspiration Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe continues the Gate of Repentance in Orchos Tzaddikim. He presents the sixth inspiration for teshuvah: living with the constant awareness that one is “one foot in the grave.” A person should never delay repentance until old age, because death can come at any moment. Instead, one must be prepared at all times to face the Creator by living in purity, constantly examining one's actions, and eagerly seeking mitzvahs every single day.Rabbi Wolbe emphasizes the importance of balance — not living in constant fear, but maintaining a healthy, proactive mindset. He shares powerful personal stories, including his grandfather's humility in the diamond district and his own self-imposed boundaries (such as never visiting Las Vegas). The class concludes with the beginning of a discussion on the four types of teshuvah, starting with teshuvah ha-ba — complete repentance demonstrated when the same temptation returns and is resisted._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Peter & Becky BotvinRecorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on November 24, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on July 15, 2026_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired!

For our penultimate episode of the Red Fairy Book, we have a triple bill of rather different stories.First, we have one of the best known fairy tales out there - Snowdrop, otherwise known as Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. It's got some excellent moments, though things get a little out of hand closer to the end!We follow that up with another Grimm tale, The Golden Goose, an example of the 'All Stick Together' tale type from the ATU Index. Follow an unlikely hero called Dullhead, his magical little grey friend, and a very sticky goose...The last in the trio is a Norwegian tale, The Seven Foals (but don't worry, they don't meet the same fate as those in Dapplegrim!) With a sadistic king, an enticing hairdressing hag and a surprisingly Christian message, it's a bit of an odd one!As ever, we discuss, compare and rate the stories afterwards! We hope that you enjoy the episode, and we will speak to you again on Saturday, when Eleanor is interviewing the Fairy Whisperer herself, Karen Kay!If you are unfamiliar with the Lang Fairy Tales, these seminal collections were assembled between 1889 and 1913 by a married couple, folklorists and translators Nora and Andrew Lang, with most of the work done to compile them completed by Nora, also known as Leonora Blanche Alleyne.Assembled and published in 12 colour-coded "Fairy Books," the corpus the Langs put together included 798 fairy tales from across cultures, many of which had never before been translated into English.They were amongst the most influential books of their time, changing the course of children's literature - although they're hardly just for children, and often deal with quite challenging concepts.Today, purchasing a complete set of the Lang Fairy Books in good condition costs over £4,000 ($5,000+).Thankfully, the collections are all out of copyright, meaning that we can now tell these stories, in podcast form, many for the first time, and share them with a global audience, for free.Our plan is to release the stories between main series of Three Ravens, performing them straight (though with plenty of silly voices) letting the tales speak for themselves in all their madcap, sharp-edged, often quite bizarre glory.The only edits we have made are to amend some culturally-insensitive epithets, which typically pertain to ethnicity, with any such edits made by Eleanor Conlon.Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon, too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?REGISTER FOR THE TALES OF SOUTHERN ENGLAND TOURVisit our website Join our Patreon Social media channels and sponsors Hosted on Acast.

On July 4th, Chinese President Xi Jinping released Pastor Ezra Jin, leader of an underground church with 10,000 members, from a Chinese prison. It wasn't a coincidence. President Trump brought Jin's case directly to Xi at the Beijing summit, and Xi agreed. Eight other church leaders from the same congregation remain imprisoned. Was this a miracle hidden inside a diplomatic meeting? Lance Wallnau breaks down the full story of Pastor Jin's release, what it cost to get him free, and what it reveals about Trump's role in protecting persecuted Christians around the world.

The same Mackenzie walking the yard, full face of makeup, hair done, curls set, gems in her hair. That one? Killed two people.
