Podcasts about Relevant

What makes a sermon truly impactful—its length, or its lasting transformation of hearts? In an age of distraction, faithful preaching must be Biblical, Christ-centered, and deeply relevant to people's real needs.

In this episode of The Observatory, Samuel Beautysta joins the show to discuss the ancient art of Zapotec weaving and the living stories carried in each thread. Samuel, a traveling weaver from Oaxaca, Mexico, shares how his curiosity about identity and lineage led him deep into the Benizaa tradition, uncovering the meanings behind patterns, the natural colors drawn from the earth, and the symbols that honor life, death, and ancestry. He reflects on his family's response to his search for knowledge, his experiences traveling and teaching, and how weaving becomes a language that connects cultures and generations. Timestamps[02:31] How Scott and LaRae first met Samuel Bautista[05:36] Samuel's background information on the weaving culture and tradition[13:33] How things unfolded for Samuel after the curiosity of wanting to know who he is[19:02] Samuel's experience in the United Kingdom[20:10] The similarities of Samuel's culture to that of other cultures during his research[25:46] How Samuel's parents reacted to his journey of seeking knowledge about their tradition [29:11] How Samuel discovered the natural colours of weaving[38:43] Samuel's episode on The Reluctant Traveler Show about the Day of the Dead[49:27] Connecting to one another and the Mother Earth[55:34] How Samuel created a community of collaboration and co-creationNotable quotes:“History is always written with an agenda and a hidden power, like governments and institutions.

In deze aflevering gaat Sector Banker Samantha Reilly in gesprek met oprichter Jason Wu van NeoSEM/ Suite seven/ Alphawave over de échte impact van AI op digital marketing. Zijn boodschap: omarm AI, laat het taken versnellen, maar bouw je voorsprong met menselijk strategisch denken. Makkelijk werk (basiswebsites, eenvoudige creaties) wordt steeds meer commodity; waarde verschuift naar prompt skills, T shape marketeers en het vermogen om als ondernemer mee te denken over resultaat, niet alleen over kanalen. Praktisch ziet hij AI in performance marketing, video creatie en agents die repetitief werk automatiseren; van productfoto's en dynamische video's tot FAQ bots en scan tools. Cultuur en talent blijven cruciaal: leren, delen en aanpassen winnen van ambacht zonder onderscheidende meerwaarde.

This week, I'm joined by Tiah DeGrofft, the first-ever female president of the iconic Pendleton Round-Up. Tiah has lived nearly every chapter of Round-Up tradition: from growing up in the grandstands to serving as a princess, queen, board member, and eventually president of one of the most historic rodeos in the world. In this episode, we talk about the depth of community behind the Pendleton Round-Up, what it really takes to run a legacy event, and the leadership lessons Tiah has learned along the way. She shares what her background in sports marketing and the PGA Tour taught her about rodeo as a business, why hospitality is the best ROI, and how Round-Up's 1,200+ volunteers make it all possible. We also dive into her favorite rodeos, what every event can do to create a memorable experience, and how women can relentlessly pursue big dreams without giving up their seat at the table.

Prepare to GROK this classic like never before!In today's Jim-solo review, we dive into Robert A. Heinlein's Stranger in a Strange Land — one of the most influential, controversial, and conversation-sparking science-fiction novels ever written. Originally published in 1961 and later expanded in the uncut edition, this book reshaped the genre, challenged cultural norms, and introduced ideas that still echo through modern sci-fi… and modern society.In this spoiler-lite discussion, I explore the book's central themes, key characters, philosophical underpinnings, and why this novel fascinated me as a young adult — and why it hit even harder on a recent reread for a conversation over on the Non-Terrestrial Half-Life YouTube channel. From Michael Valentine Smith's journey to the hypocrisies of American culture, this story still has something urgent and unsettling to say.Whether you've read it before, are thinking about picking it up, or simply want to understand why this book remains such a lightning rod in sci-fi history, this episode is for you.If you enjoy this kind of deep-dive book talk, don't forget to Like, Subscribe, and ring that bell so you never miss an episode.

Federal Judge Dismisses FTC Antitrust Complaint Against Meta — Jessica Melugin — Judge Boasberg dismissed the FTC's monopoly complaint on the foundational grounds that the agency failed to properly define the relevant market, artificially inflating Meta's competitive share by excluding dominant competitors including TikTok and YouTube. Melugin documents that proper market definition analysis places Meta's competitive share at approximately 30–50%, insufficient to constitute monopoly status under established antitrust doctrine, with the decision correctly emphasizing forward-looking statutory authority rather than retroactive punishment of 2020 historical behavior. 1953

We often think of praise as an emotional response to God's goodness, something we offer when we feel happy or blessed. But what if praise is actually a strategic spiritual weapon, a tool in our spiritual toolbox that we deploy by faith rather than feeling? This powerful exploration of 2 Chronicles 20 reveals how King Jehoshaphat faced three armies with no natural way to win, yet discovered that praise isn't just our response to victory—it's the pathway to victory. When Jehoshaphat was afraid and didn't know what to do, he didn't run to his own reasoning or strategies. Instead, he sought the Lord first, gathering the people to fast and pray. The revelation he received was radical: put the worshipers at the front of the army. As they began to sing and praise, their enemies turned on each other and destroyed themselves. This teaches us something profound: praise doesn't follow victory, praise produces victory. When we're overwhelmed by circumstances—whether financial pressure, health battles, relationship struggles, or any situation that seems impossible—our first response should be to seek God's presence. Praise shifts the battle from our hands to God's hands. It's not about feeling excited; it's an act of faith that releases God's power into our situations. The size of our seed determines the size of our harvest, and praise is a seed we sow in faith, trusting that God will move on our behalf.

Revisiting one of our most powerful and unforgettable conversations — our interview with Betsy and Gentry Mikesell. These inspiring entrepreneurs, known for creating Beddy's, the bedding company that transformed how families make their beds, open up about more than business success in this episode. They share the life-altering plane crash that reshaped their family forever — and the profound gratitude that came from surviving the unimaginable. As we enter the Thanksgiving season, their story is a reminder of what truly matters: family, faith, resilience, and the ability to find gratitude even in the hardest chapters of life. Their words still echo with one of the most powerful lines from the episode: “It was the worst thing to happen to our family… and yet the best.” This is an episode that will warm your heart, move you deeply, and inspire you to reach out to the people you love with a little extra gratitude today.Timestamps[2:56] Being an entrepreneur and the start of Beddy's [10:43] Snapshot of what Beddy's looks like today [17:10] The plane crash[21:33] Gaining consciousness [27:20] Having to wait for Gentry to heal [37:42] Fearing he might not make it [41:20] Learning to not be judgmental or critical [42:51] Where Alyssa was and how this experience touched her [49:35] Moving to Tennessee and how life was later [53:51] One final nugget of truth Notable quotes:“There were just so many things that came into place, like if we had crashed 20 seconds earlier, we wouldn't have crashed near campers.

Now distributed, managed, and published exclusively through Roc Nation, Uzi joins an ultra-elite circle alongside only Jay-Z and Rihanna. Roc Nation President Krystian Santini hails Uzi as a “global icon” granted complete creative control with maximum resources.The new era launched with a surprise two-pack drop: morning single “Chanel Boy” (prod. ZeeGoinXrazy) – a high-synth Eternal Atake throwback dripping in Chanel luxury references – paired with a gritty NYC video featuring helicopters, Black SUVs, and full designer flex. Hours later came “Relevant” (prod. Trillion & Rima), a red-bandana Balenciaga statement reasserting dominance with immediate visual accompaniment.Analytic Dreamz breaks down the full 2025 context: Uzi's low-profile year, cleared sexual harassment lawsuit (dismissed with prejudice), and the active $110M copyright case over “Just Wanna Rock” claiming 93–97% melodic similarity to Rief Rawyal's “Pain and Pleasure.”This segment analyzes how Uzi's Roc-backed independence creates one of rap's most powerful artist-business structures, signals a return to beloved spacey sonics, and kicks off a new rollout era with unstoppable momentum. Essential listening for Uzi fans and hip-hop business observers.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/analytic-dreamz-notorious-mass-effect/donationsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

We're thrilled to kick off our first episode of Víga-Glúms saga, the last of the sagas of Eyjafjörð. Víga-Glúms saga is one of the great character-driven Íslendingasögur, often drawing comparisons to Egils saga. Now, whether that's because it also happens to be a biographical saga or because it's of a similar quality will have to be sorted out on the podcast across the overview and judgments. But we're excited to start this new saga either way, and this first episode sets the stage beautifully for the arrival of the man who comes to be known as Killer-Glum. Like so many sagas, Víga-Glúms saga opens not with the hero himself but with the adventures of the generations that came before him. These early chapters give us a sense of the family dynamics, the local tensions, and threads of fate that Glum will inherit and inevitably wrestle with as his saga develops. Cast of Characters: I'm going to try and include a cast of major characters in the show notes for each episode to help listeners keep track of things. In this first episode, we get to know Glum's formidable ancestors, including: Helgi the Lean, Glúm's great-grandfather and the most prominent settler in Eyjafjörð Ingjald Helgason, Glúm's grumpy grandfather Eyjólf, Glúm's mild-mannered but calculating father Of course, this wouldn't be Saga Thing without a few memorable supporting characters to make things interesting. This episode introduces some pretty interesting Norwegians: Hreiðar, a Norwegian merchant with a heart of gold Ívar, a Viking with a heart of red (also Hreiðar's brother) A berserk with a notably low sense of self-worth, whose attempts at intimidation don't quite land the way he hopes Vigfús, a powerful Norwegian hersir with a lovely daughter named Ástrið And then, there are the Icelanders who will make Glúm's life more interesting, and challenging: Þorkell the Tall, father-in-law of Glúm's recently deceased brother Sigmund, son of Þorkell the Tall, and wannabe goði Víga-Glúms saga is definitely a fun one that we've been saving for a while. We hope you enjoy this first episode!
