Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Our shout-out today goes to Brad Guck from Perham, MN. Thanks for your partnership in Project23. We cannot do this without donors like you. Our text today is 1 Corinthians 13:4-5. Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful. — 1 Corinthians 13:4-5 Are you being puffed up—or are you building others up? That is Paul's question. Previously in this letter, he repeatedly used the word physioō (φυσιόω)—"to puff up," to inflate with pride (1 Corinthians 4:6, 4:18–19, 5:2, 8:1). Knowledge puffs up, he said, but love builds up. Now, in chapter 13, he shows us what that looks like. If you want to know whether your motivation is right, don't look at your puffed-up gifts. Look at whether they are building others up. Paul defines the loving use of our gifts—but not the way we expect. He does not start with emotion in this text He starts with restraint. Love is patient. Love is kind. And then he turns negative. Love does not envy. Love does not boast. It is not arrogant. It is not rude. It does not insist on its own way. It is not irritable. It keeps no record of wrongs. The word "arrogant" in this text carries the same idea Paul has been correcting all along—puffed up. Inflated. Swollen with self-importance. This chapter is a direct confrontation with the puffed-up pride behind their spiritual gifts within the church. Corinth envied the visible gifts. They boasted about their spirituality. They divided over leaders. They insisted on their rights. They flaunted freedom. They ranked one another. They were puffed up. And Paul says that none of that builds up. Notice how many of these traits target the ego. Envy compares. Boasting advertises. Arrogance inflates. Rudeness disregards. Insisting on your own way centers your will. Irritability reveals entitlement. Resentment stores ammunition. Love dismantles every one of those. Love does not puff up because it is not focused on self. Love builds up because it is focused on others. Here is the point: you can operate in powerful gifts and still be deeply inflated. But if others are not strengthened, encouraged, and built up through you, it is not love. And without love, nothing else matters. DO THIS: Identify one area where you've been easily irritated or defensive. Instead of protecting your ego, intentionally build someone else up this week—with encouragement, patience, or quiet service. ASK THIS: Am I using my knowledge or gifting in a way that puffs me up—or builds others up? Where is pride disguising itself as conviction? Would those closest to me say I strengthen them—or strain them? PRAY THIS: Lord, expose pride that inflates my ego. Guard me from being puffed up by knowledge, success, or gifting. Make me an instrument of love that builds others up for the glory of Christ. Amen. PLAY THIS: "Humble and Kind"
In part 6 of our Love Like God study, we take a closer look at one of the shortest — yet most convicting — statements in 1 Corinthians 13: “Love is not rude.” It sounds simple… but it reaches deeper than we often realize. Rudeness isn't usually loud or obvious. It shows up in everyday moments — a sharp tone, an interruption, a lack of gratitude, or being kind to strangers while short with the people closest to us. These small moments may seem insignificant, but over time, they can quietly damage the relationships that matter most. In this video, we explore: What the Bible really means when it says love is not rude How rudeness is often rooted in self-centeredness Why we tend to treat loved ones worse than strangers And how the example of Jesus Christ reshapes the way we speak and respond to others Biblical love isn't about grand gestures — it's revealed in ordinary conversations. When we replace rudeness with respect, we begin to reflect the heart of Christ in everyday life. Ask yourself: Do the people closest to me feel honored by the way I speak to them?

When your teen snaps, rolls their eyes, or talks back—do you feel like you're one comment away from losing it?If you're parenting solo, teen attitude can feel constant and personal—like you're failing or losing your relationship. This episode reframes what's actually happening in your teen's brain and in your single-parent family dynamic, so you can respond in a way that lowers conflict without letting the disrespect slide.Understand why teen rudeness is usually dysregulation, not a character flaw—and why common consequences can escalate things.Learn the single-parent intensity factor: why you get the worst of it (and what it means about safety and attachment).Use a 2-step, research-backed response that holds the boundary in the moment and repairs connection afterward.Press play to learn the calm, two-step script you can use the next time attitude hits—so you stay in control, keep your dignity, and protect the relationship.⭐Got screen time problems at home, get the Tech Reset Agreement here

DOING LIFE: Daily Devotions For Finding Peace in Stressful Times
"Rudeness is the weak man's imitation of strength." (Eric Hoffer)
“Social media has opened up mass narcissism and everyone has main character syndrome. It's every person for himself. While government and industry are cracking down on an uncivil public, what can we, the public, do?” So writes Author and Guardian Columnist Brigid Delaney and she joined Anton on the show.

On this Make A Difference Minute, I'm reminding listeners that someone else's inconsiderate behavior does not deserve control over their peace. Rudeness, carelessness, and a lack of awareness can easily disrupt our day if we let it. This segment encourages listeners to pause, gain perspective, and choose calm over reaction. Protecting your peace is not ignoring bad behavior. It is refusing to let it dictate your emotional state. Sponsor: Hydration Lounge HydrationL.com

To hear Gen Z talk is to witness a linguistic revolution. The profanity once deemed most vulgar now often passes without comment. However, language that attacks a person's race, gender, or ability is firmly and immediately condemned. This new hierarchy of what makes words offensive speaks volumes about our evolving social values. On the show: Niu Honglin, Steve & Laiming

Available on all platforms.* YouTube* Spotify* AppleIn this episode, CJ Gustafson, Kyle Poyar, and Ben Hillman dive into the concept of “sloponomics”—a tongue-in-cheek look at the overwhelming flood of mediocre AI-generated content and what it means for creators, startups, and investors. They discuss how unique voices and genuine creativity will stand out in an AI-saturated landscape, the economic parallels between modern content creation and startup growth, and the tricky dynamics of building sustainable momentum in a world of noise. The trio also unpack the “$10K MRR” meme, pricing psychology, and the difference between chasing vanity metrics and building lasting value. With humor and real-world insight, they explore how AI, distribution, and early-stage investment are reshaping what success looks like in tech and media.Timestamps:00:00 Preview and Intro00:35 Being Mean to AI and Early Banter02:05 When You're Rude to AI: The Penn State Study04:57 Sponsor – Metronome06:02 The Rise of AI-Generated “Slop” Content07:15 The Creator “Haves and Have-Nots”09:00 Losing Credit to AI Models11:20 Feeding the Beast: 400 Posts Later13:13 “Slop Talk” and Human-Made Slop14:27 The $10K MRR Meme and Startup Momentum15:49 Pricing Psychology and Product Traction17:42 Hunting Mice, Buffalo, and Elephants20:19 Venture Funds, Bubbles, and Ecosystem Investing23:39 When Startups Invest in Startups26:25 Slack, Lattice, and the Platform Play30:39 Wrapping Up and Late-Night Insights33:12 The Hemingway Story and CJ's No-Instagram Lifestyle36:10 Electric Boats, Group Discounts, and Sign-OffEpisodes Referenced:Slop Talk (coming soon)https://www.youtube.com/slackerstuffWhy Only 2% of Startups Make ItWhen startups burn cash faster than they learn | Ivan Makarov:996 Culture, Exploding AI Bills & SaaS ChaosLinks:https://www.dexerto.com/entertainment/study-proves-being-rude-to-ai-chatbots-gets-better-results-than-being-nice-3269895/https://www.usg.edu/galileo/skills/unit07/internet07_02.phtmlhttps://futurism.com/altman-please-thanks-chatgpthttps://futurism.com/artificial-intelligence/over-50-percent-internet-ai-slophttps://www.axios.com/2025/10/14/ai-generated-writing-humanshttps://www.economist.com/business/2025/10/16/sloponomics-who-wins-and-loses-in-the-ai-content-floodhttps://x.com/madhuraaa_/status/1978390720881819884https://www.mostlymetrics.com/p/eat-what-you-killhttps://christophjanz.blogspot.com/2014/10/five-ways-to-build-100-million-business.htmlhttps://www.growthunhinged.com/p/how-to-build-your-early-gtm-strategyhttps://www.mostlymetrics.com/p/startups-investing-in-startups-peak-bubble-behaviorhttps://www.economist.com/science-and-technology/2025/10/10/are-barefoot-shoes-good-for-runnershttps://x.com/ivanomaksf/status/1978852000298320068?s=46https://www.linkedin.com/news/story/uber-offers-drivers-extra-pay-to-perform-tasks-that-train-ai-7116401/https://www.mostlymetrics.com/p/is-ltv-to-cac-the-nickelback-of-metricshttps://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/final-2024-25-network-tv-ratings-tracker-high-potential-1236312223/https://christophjanz.blogspot.com/2014/10/five-ways-to-build-100-million-business.htmlhttps://www.theinformation.com/articles/ben-horowitz-hires-jensen-vercel-starts-venture-fundhttps://www.instagram.com/chasemytail/Today's podcast is brought to you by MetronomeYou just launched your new AI product.

"Sometimes when we think we've hit a dead end or that something isn't working, an even better opportunity comes along." -Dr. John O'Brien Dr. John O'Brien is a licensed psychologist, professional speaker, and executive coach based in Portland, Maine. With a career spanning over 30 years in the mental health field, he specializes in creating lower-stress work environments that promote employee engagement and productivity. Dr. O'Brien has served as an adjunct faculty member at the University of Maine in Augusta, and he is the author of the book "Rudeness Rehab: Reclaiming Civility in the Workplace and Your Home Space." His expertise uniquely positions him to address challenges in mental health and workplace dynamics, offering insights that blend psychological understanding with practical business applications. Episode Summary: In this episode of "Oh, My Health...There Is Hope!" hosted by Jana Short, we welcome the insightful Dr. John O'Brien to discuss his recent book, "Rudeness Rehab: Reclaiming Civility in the Workplace and Your Home Space." Dr. O'Brien delves into the pervasive issue of rudeness and incivility, which has been exacerbated by the isolating impact of COVID-19, divisive politics, and the impersonal nature of social media. He shares a personal anecdote of overcoming a discouraging professional setback, highlighting how resilience and support networks can lead to unexpected opportunities. Throughout the conversation, Dr. O'Brien emphasizes the critical importance of compassion and active listening in both professional and personal contexts. The episode examines how leaders can demonstrate appropriate behavior within their organizations to foster a culture of respect and civility. With insights drawn from psychology and his professional experiences, Dr. O'Brien offers actionable advice for individuals seeking to navigate rudeness and foster a more collaborative and supportive environment. The dialogue further emphasizes the power of introspection and communication in transforming relationships at work and at home. Key Takeaways: The pervasive issue of rudeness at work and at home can be mitigated by fostering a culture of respect and empathy. The isolation during the COVID-19 pandemic has amplified incivility, but tools like active listening and mindfulness can help. Leaders must model civility and effectively address rudeness in real time to cultivate a positive workplace environment. Effective communication requires recognizing when to respond and when to let go, especially in digital interactions. Personal anecdotes demonstrate resilience against negativity and the importance of seeking better opportunities.

If you like your sports with a side of chaos, this one's for you. Norm dives headfirst into the Cowboys–Packers 40–40 overtime tie — a game so bonkers it felt like Madden on rookie mode. Dak Prescott? Nearly flawless. Brian Schottenheimer? Calling plays like he had the cheat codes. The defense? Well… let's just say Green Bay found plenty of daylight. Then it's off the field and onto the greens at the Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black, where the competition was world-class but the fans were straight-up embarrassing. Yep, we're talking vulgar chants, heckling during swings, and comedian Heather McMahon somehow thinking “F-U Rory” was a good rally cry. Spoiler: it wasn't. It's Cowboys brilliance, Cowboys blunders, and a Ryder Cup that turned into a case study on why sportsmanship still matters.

0:00 - CU had a chance to rally and beat BYU at Folsom...and managed to fall flat on their faces down the stretch again. The Rams got smacked around again. They were never in that game to begin with. Our local college football teams need to get their act together.Also, after the Packers @ Cowboys game last night, we're ready to say it: NO MORE NFL TIES! There can't be ties in the National Football League. Last time I checked, this is America. 15:15 - The Chargers fell to the Jaxson Dart-led Giants, and the Chiefs absolutely mollywhopped the Ravens. How does this slight reshuffling of the AFC West affect the Broncos?36:58 - The Ryder Cup was ROUGH over the weekend for Team USA. And the worst part? Brett is actually coming to the defense of his nemesis Rory McIlroy.
In the wake of Jimmy Kimmel and other inconsiderate responses to the assassination of Charlie Kirk, Dr. Kathy unpacks why we need to celebrate and encourage politenenss and manners.

Welcome back to the Brand X Podcast! In this vintage episode from May 11, 2016, hosts John Jamingo and Deuce dive into a hilarious and relatable mix of everyday annoyances and nostalgic observations. Kick back as John shares his “grumpy old man” adventures, from enduring parking lot gridlock on Mother's Day—complete with two clueless security guards—to unleashing the power of Twitter when customer service falls flat. Deuce adds his flavor, reflecting on how social media has transformed how we talk, connect, and—sometimes—argue while recounting his reluctant adoption of smartphones and the epic autocorrect fail story you'll have to hear to believe.The duo also riffs on the modern decline of discourse, swapping stories about political clashes on Facebook, debates about personal boundaries, and their gripes with pushy solar salesmen.

Enjoy! And maybe, just maybe, Eric and I will be reinstated and return as hosts next week… -Alex Smith
