Podcast appearances and mentions of ron schmidt

UPDATED:Now... 'all shall be well' sounds great, but it is sometimes truly hard to believe! In this series, we're looking at some anxiety-producing topics through Julian of Norwich's lens of faith, hope, and love.Today, Julia interviews Ron Schmidt, whose passion for creation care (especially about achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions) is filled with conviction, curiosity, and hope. Listen in as one of our sages talks about his passion for the earth, his concern about climate change, and why he believes that working towards an impossible and an important goal is both life-giving and the best use of who God made him to be.Ron grew up in a working-class family in Milwaukee and graduated with his MBA and BBA with an accounting major from the University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee. While beginning his career in public accounting, during which time he obtained his CPA, Ron eventually moved into banking. In 1983, Ron relocated to Columbus to join Bank One, which, ultimately, became JPMorgan Chase. After retirement in 2009, Ron joined Vineyard Columbus, graduating from Vineyard Institute in 2014. Only recently (2024) did he become actively involved in creation care. Ron is married and has four adult children and four grandchildren. You can contact Ron at: ron.creationcare@gmail.com.Julian of Norwich lived in the Middle Ages through the Black Plague and is one of the church's most recognized mystics.  She wrote the earliest surviving book in the English language written by a woman, Revelations of Divine Love, in which we find her well known reflection: Here I was taught by the grace of God that I should steadfastly hold me in the Faith ... and that ... I should take my stand on and earnestly believe in ... that ‘all manner of thing shall be well'.

Marian Kolodziej was on the first transport into Auschwitz on June 14, 1940. He was given number 432. He survived and never spoke of his experience for 50 years. After a serious stroke in 1993, he began rehabilitation by doing pen and ink drawings depicting the experiences he and others endured in the concentration camp. These drawings, in their skeletal detail, are a gripping depiction of the pain, death, and horrors of the camp. While most of the drawings represent the memories of a young man's hellish experiences in Auschwitz, some tell stories of small acts of kindness and dignity. Marian's story of survival, of persistence, of life before, during, and after Auschwitz are a testament to the human spirit. Marian's drawings and art installations, which he called The Labyrinth, fill the large basement of a church near Auschwitz and draw visitors into the horrific reality of the Holocaust. On June 14, 2023, we held a documentary screening for The Labyrinth. Following that screening we were joined in conversation with the film's producer, Fr. Ron Schmidt. Today's Reagan Forum podcast is of that conversation.

Intro (0:00) News and Views (0:56)Stacy and Sarah had originally intended to host a part 2 discussion on sugar this week, but in light of recent discussions around Green Pastures fermented cod liver oil (FCLO), the hosts are going to shift gears this week to discuss rancid fats and what may or may not be happening with Green Pastures A lot of the real food community has recommended Green Pastures for a very long time - they make and manufacture a number of products and have for a long time You can find lots of information on Green Pastures throughout the community, as they have been a highly recommended supplement for a number of years When Sarah first recommended Green Pastures she took a look at how it was extracted and how the integrity of the product was kept intact to keep it as a whole food What sparked this whole discussion was a study that Dr. Kaayla Daniels released based on data that a third-party had completed on her behalf, and how the quality and claims were different than what is provided by the brand This study has caused a big debate in the real food communityExample of the discussions around the study can be found here Stacy is interested to learn more about the sides and the full-fact checking picture, because what concerns her about how this debate has unfolded is how the president of the Weston A Price Foundation made a decision to not investigate the concerns that were raised by the board of the Foundation on Green Pasture's products Green Pastures has offered members of the Weston A Price Foundation the chance to come and tour their farm and facilities to offer more insight into their product claims Stacy wants to point out that the decision to not take Green Pastures up on this offer to fully investigate the truth before making and sharing decisions with the community, shows a lack of thorough analysis when making brand/product decisions (we have seen this kind of decision making before when the paleo community was attacked, see here)Stacy's rebuttal to the paleo community attack Sarah's rebuttal to the paleo community attack What Stacy and Sarah hope to accomplish in this episode is to remove the subjective feelings and to take a look at the facts and science behind the findings, and to take a deeper look at rancidity of fats so that listeners can make fully informed decisions First Sarah wants to discuss Dr. Daniels report and the debate around her conclusions, as she is seeing some misunderstandings on the science and wants to shed some more light on those misunderstandings (20:04)Sarah finds it interesting that FCLO is considered a traditional food, yet Green Pastures is the only company that makes and sells it and it has only been on the market since 2007, when the Western A Price Foundation (WAPF) first highly endorsed it The first criticism by Dr. Daniels is how can you ferment oil, you need to have something for a bacteria to eat - taking a deeper look at how Green Pastures explains their fermentation process on their site How difficult it is to draw conclusions is based on to what extent the product manufacturing information is shared by Green Pastures Concerns were first raised around Green Pastures product integrity by Dr. Ron Schmidt, see more here Others began to share their experiences and say that they too were experiencing negative effects from FCLO consumption Nourished and Nurtured shared a similar personal story as well, and how they too had experienced negative results from consistent FCLO consumption In March 2014 a Green Pastures competitor, Corganic released extra virgin cod liver oil and Dan Corrigan again questioned how you can ferment cod liver oil, which sparked the WAPF President (Sally Fallon) to threaten to ban Corrigan from WAPF events Dr. Daniels first began looking into the science a bit more in December 2014, in response to these debates that were happening all over the place on FCLO The way Sally (the WAPF president) then responded to these debates and Dr. Daniels concerns shows a lack of scientific investigation when addressing a question of the WAPF board and community In February 2015 the WAPF released a rebuttal to these debates, which then sparked Dr. Daniels to submit her own samples of Green Pastures FCLO for testing, and this is what her report that was recently released in August coversThe first investigation in the report, can this even be fermented? (30:39) The second piece she investigated was oil rancidityThe three different ways fats can go bad One of the other pieces that Dr. Daniels looked at was the vitamin contentThe omega 3 content is surprisingly low and there are trans fats present, but it is unclear if they are good or bad trans fats There are questions around whether or not these tests actually looked at all the different forms of vitamin A, D, K2 and if some forms were missed It is clear what additional questions need to be explored However, others have tried to undermine Dr. Daniels report by making unscientific statements in rebuttal This raises some concerns for Sarah:We do not have all the answers and it is too difficult to make a statement yay or nay against FCLO Dr. Daniels will not share the information on the five labs who tested the FCLO, or where the funding for these studies came from This is essentially a debate between two sides and no one is providing all the information, which is frustrating because Sarah wants to share an informed decision with those looking for more information Stacy's personal feelings on the information that is being shared and her approach until more information is available Stacy just wants to encourage everyone to be subjective to the recommendations you receive, regardless of who those recommendations are coming from Next week's show will be a sugar part 2 discussion Please don't forget to leave those reviews in iTunes and to share with others Outro (1:04:36)

On the podcast over the last few months, we’ve heard from Phil Krestedemas, Ron Schmidt, Shannon Gleeson about various aspects of immigration and immigrants in the US.

Ron Schmidt is the co-author (with Yvette M. Alex-Assensoh, Andrew L. Aoki, and Rodney Hero) of Newcomers, Outsiders, and Insiders: Immigrants and the American Racial Politics in the Early 21st Century (University of Michigan Press, 2013). Schmidt is professor of political science at California State University Long Beach. This is a big book that covers long and complex histories of numerous groups in the United States. The authors link the arrival and integration of Latino Americans and Asian Americans to evolving group identities and developing political institutions. They draw interesting comparisons between the legacies of the African American social movements of the Civil Rights era and immigrant protests in other ethnic communities. They conclude with a mixed assessment about where the US now stands in terms of immigrant politics. Gains have been made, but immigrants remain largely shut out of traditional forms of political representation and often lack entre into politics. Learn more about your ad choices.
