'Dad always thought laughter was the best medicine, which I guess is why several of us died of tuberculosis.' Jack Handy, Deep Thoughts on SNL.Laughter won't cure tuberculosis, or any disease for that matter, but it sure will disarm us of toxicity and arm us instead with a host of healthy benefits. Research shows that it lowers cortisol (stress hormone), it boosts endorphins (pain relieving hormones) and improves blood flow throughout the body--among other researched benefits. My guest this week is Carol Deyoe, a woman who believes in the power of laughter and humor as much as I do. Carol's personal use of laughter and humor is notable. She's a stand-up comedian and pharmacy professional who used humor to get through two rounds of cancer and is sharing that inspiration and knowledge in her motivational presentation called Laughing at Tigers. Whether you lace up for a walk, kick back in your favorite chair, or buckle up that seat belt in the car, settle in for this poignant, powerful and humor-packed conversation.

The roads to Fort Wayne and Salem are complete. The teams now have to hit the roads to get there physically. Which women's team comes out the champs? Which men's teams survive to play for a national title? 2, 4, 6, 8, who do we appreciate? Those numbers will used this coming week as we work our way down from quarterfinals and semifinals. On Mondays' super-sized edition of Hoopsville, we show our appreciation for the programs still playing in the DIII national tournaments. We chat to all four of the women's programs still dancing and showcase a number of the men's teams that will lace it up on Thursday. Who might be best prepared as the national spotlight gets brighter for all? Guests appearing on the Hudl Hoopsville Hotline in Part 2: - James Cosgrove - No. 1 Trinity (Conn.) men's coach - Ben O'Brien, Kaeli Romanowski & Jenna Sloan - No. 2 Scranton women's coach, Landmark Defensive Player of the Year (1st Team), & senior guard - Olivia Argall & Brad Fischer - No. 4 UW-Oshkosh senior forward & women's coach - Mo Hirt - No. 8 Denison women's coach & players (interview conducted by D3hoops.com's Gordon Mann) Plus, the NABC All-Stars will be announced. We discuss who will be playing as part of Saturday's hors d'oevres to the men's semifinals. Hoopsville is presented by D3hoops.com from the WBCA Studios.

In last week's podcast conversation, we touched upon the idea of blooming where you're planted. That's not to say you should accept everything as is in life. If it's not right for you, do what you can to change it...whether that be a job, place of residence, health status, etc. But, we also tend to look outwardly to want change to happen so some of us might complain about external things and act like they are responsible for our happiness or wellness, when in fact, everything begins with us.This week my guest is Jennifer Aleke, co-owner of J&M's Delights cookies and facilitator of "I Love Myself" workshops. As you'll hear in our conversation, Jen didn't start a cookie business because she's a passionate baker but she is passionate about bridging gaps between people and helping them make life enjoyable. J & M's (the M is for Jen's business partner Mike) is a cookie business inspired by love, family, and the power of connection. Their journey began with a shared mission to create treats that everyone could enjoy. Jen and Mike both live with a gluten allergy, so together they understand how hard it can be to find treats that are both safe and satisfying. Shop online for these delicious cookies or visit many coffee shops throughout Scranton. You can also taste these delicious treats on April 18 at the Marketplace at Steamtown and the Lace Village's spring vendor events. In addition to creating connection through cookies, Jen also leads workshops to help people reconnect with themselves through reflection, clarity, and intention for personal growth. One is planned at Nancy K. Holmes Library in Scranton on March 21 and watch for an April event at The Gather Community Space in Wilkes-Barre.

Episode 193 | Why Great Leadership Creates Great Wealth | Financial Planning, Wealth Building & Leadership Development for Entrepreneurs   What separates high-earning entrepreneurs who build lasting wealth from those who just make good money?

They offered $100,000. She demanded $450,000. They wouldn't budge — so she went to trial. The jury came back with $10 million. To this day, it remains the highest pain-and-suffering verdict in Luzerne County history. Meet Melissa Scartelli, the author of that verdict and many others. A 35-year trial veteran and founder of Scartelli Olszewski, Melissa has built her practice around medical malpractice, earning rare punitive damage verdicts against physicians and going to verdict in cases where she could not name a specific dollar amount to the jury. Host Dan Ambrose draws out stories behind Melissa's wins, including the way she anchors damages and the time she flipped a retrial in her favor by calling a defendant doctor first.

History does not whisper in our lifetime — it thunders. Nations are tested, alliances are strained, and the moral weight of leadership settles on those called to stand in the storm. In such moments, diplomacy is no longer ceremony. It is strategy. It is conviction. It is the voice of a nation carried across oceans. Today, we are honored to sit at one of the most consequential crossroads of our era with Michael 'Yechiel' Leiter, Israel's Ambassador to the United States. His appointment in January 2025 is not the result of a single moment, but the culmination of a life shaped by intellect, policy, and public service. He has served in senior advisory roles to Israel's leadership, including as chief of staff to Benjamin Netanyahu during his tenure as finance minister, and in key positions across government ministries and national institutions — from national education policy to strategic infrastructure oversight. In every arena, his work has required one essential quality: the ability to translate vision into reality. Yet Ambassador Leiter is not only a practitioner of statecraft — he is a scholar of it. Holding a Ph.D. in political philosophy from the University of Haifa, with advanced training in international relations and law, he has written and lectured extensively on democracy, governance, and the moral foundations of power. His book, John Locke's Political Philosophy and the Hebrew Bible, argues that modern democratic ideals are not merely products of secular Enlightenment thought, but are deeply rooted in biblical covenantal ideas — that authority is conditional, morally bound, and entrusted rather than absolute. Few diplomats arrive with both the academic depth to interpret history and the practical experience to help shape it. Born in Scranton, Pennsylvania, and forged in Israel's public life, Ambassador Leiter stands as a bridge between worlds — scholarship and strategy, conviction and diplomacy, heritage and unfolding history. His earlier advocacy work on behalf of the Jewish community of Hebron positioned him as a key voice explaining one of Judaism's oldest cities — home to the Tomb of the Patriarchs — to international audiences, framing its story not only through conflict, but through history, faith, and continuity. And he carries something more — something deeply personal. His firstborn son, Lt. Col. Moshe Yedidya Leiter, an elite Israeli combat officer, was killed in action in Gaza following the war that erupted after October 7. That loss is inseparable from his public voice. When he speaks about Israel's security, democracy, and moral responsibility, he does so not only as a diplomat, but as a father who has borne the cost of national defense. Michael Leiter brings together three rare callings: senior government practitioner, trained political philosopher, and diplomatic representative. His career bridges theory and policy, scholarship and statecraft, faith and democracy. This is not merely an interview. It is a conversation at the fault line of our times. Ambassador Michael Leiter — welcome to the program. ——

Laird Scranton is an author and independent researcher best known for his in-depth studies of Dogon mythology and symbology, examining the sophisticated cosmological knowledge embedded within the traditions of the Dogon people of Mali. Scranton analyzes symbols, language structures, ritual practices, and oral traditions to argue that Dogon cosmology encodes advanced scientific concepts—particularly related to astronomy, particle physics, and the nature of reality. His work bridges anthropology, linguistics, and alternative science, offering a thought-provoking perspective on how ancient cultures may have preserved complex knowledge through symbolic systems rather than written records.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-x-zone-radio-tv-show--1078348/support.Please note that all XZBN radio and/or television shows are Copyright © REL-MAR McConnell Meda Company, Niagara, Ontario, Canada – www.rel-mar.com.

A tour of the Lackawanna Coal Mine in Scranton, Pennsylvania is supposed to be history—hard hats, rail tracks, and stories from an ex-miner guide as your group descends roughly 300 feet underground into tunnels carved generations ago. But for one listener, the mine felt different the moment they approached the airlock section—an area once tended by young boys whose job was to open and close heavy doors to protect ventilation flow. Without warning, she felt an intense pressure and heaviness—so strong she thought something had gone wrong with the air underground. Then the guide cut the lights to demonstrate the mine's total darkness.When the lights returned, she saw it: a child-shaped figure—blacker than black—ducking behind a support beam like it was hiding.She didn't feel fear… just awe. And an unsettling realization that she may have seen it before.#RealGhostStoriesOnline #LackawannaCoalMineTour #ScrantonPA #HauntedMine #ShadowPerson #ShadowFigure #TrueGhostStory #ParanormalPodcast #UndergroundHaunting #CreepyEncountersLove real ghost stories?

Some places don't feel haunted until you step into the exact spot where someone once spent their life—day after day—doing a job no child should ever have to do.On a routine tour deep beneath Scranton, a couple rides an open-air trolley into an old mine, expecting history, not anything paranormal. The guide explains ventilation, airlocks, and the boys who used to sit alone in the dark, opening and closing doors to keep the mine breathing.And then… the atmosphere changes. Not with a noise. Not with a bang. But with a sudden, crushing heaviness that settles over one person in the group—so intense it feels like the air itself has turned thick.Moments later, the guide shuts off the lights to demonstrate “total darkness.” It lasts only seconds. But when the lights return, something is already moving—something shaped like a child, darker than the shadows around it, slipping behind a support beam as if it knows it has been seen.And the strangest part? The witness realizes they've seen that same kind of “blacker-than-black” figure before.#RealGhostStoriesOnline #ShadowPeople #HauntedMine #CoalMineTour #ParanormalEncounter #ShadowFigure #TrueGhostStory #UndergroundHaunting #CreepyEncountersLove real ghost stories?

On January 12, 2025, 50-year-old Robert Maguire, known to those closest to him as Bobby, said goodbye to his father and boarded a bus in Wilmington, Delaware. His destination was Scranton, Pennsylvania. Those cities are only about 2 to 3 hours apart, but the route the bus Bobby boarded included a stop at the Port Authority Bus Terminal in New York City, where he was expected to transfer to a second bus bound for Scranton. On the other end of the trip, Bobby's cousin was waiting for a call to let him know he had arrived and was ready to be picked up. That call never came.At first, the silence did not raise an immediate alarm. Bobby's cousin assumed he had decided not to make the trip. His family in Delaware believed he had arrived safely. As more time passed with no word from Bobby, those assumptions fell away, and the family realized something was wrong. What makes Bobby's disappearance especially difficult is the uncertainty of where it occurred. Somewhere between Wilmington, New York City, and Scranton, Bobby vanished. With multiple buses, a major transit hub, and time unaccounted for, his last confirmed location remains unclear. This has left his family unsure where to focus their search. One year later, they're still searching for answers.If you have any information about the disappearance of Robert Maguire, please contact the Wilmington Police Department at (302) 654-5151.If you have a missing loved one that you would like to have featured on the show, please fill out our case submission form.Follow The Vanished on social media at:FacebookInstagramPatreonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Choose the leader you are becoming, or default to the leader you have been. That is the real decision in front of you as you head into a new year. Most leaders believe change starts with better goals. New priorities. New plans. But if you keep showing up with the same identity, the same emotional patterns, and the same nervous system responses, you will recreate the same year with different tasks. This episode is about breaking that cycle. Episode overview This is Episode 2 of my three-part Design Yourself series on creating the life and leadership you want in 2026. In Episode 1, we focused on self-awareness and uncovering the default stories running your leadership. In this episode, we move from awareness to choice. Because you cannot design a different year if you show up as the same version of yourself. In this conversation, I break down why goals do not create lasting change and why identity does. We explore how identity is formed, how it drives behavior under pressure, and why many high-performing leaders stay stuck by clinging to versions of themselves that once worked but no longer fit. I also share personal stories about releasing old identities and what shifted when I consciously chose who I wanted to become, not someday, but now. Research highlight According to research from the University of Scranton, ninety-two percent of people fail to achieve their goals. One major reason is that they focus on outcomes instead of the identity and systems required to sustain change. Key takeaways • You cannot design a different year if you show up as the same version of yourself. • Identity is not fixed. It is practiced. • Your identity drives your behavior, not the other way around. • Leadership friction is often an identity problem, not a performance problem. • You are designing the experience of you every day. Mic drop moments • Choose the leader you are becoming, or default to the leader you have been. • Goals do not create change. Identity does. • If you do not upgrade your identity, your life will keep bumping up against the same edges. • You are not designing a to-do list for 2026. You are designing the experience of you. If you haven't listened to Episode 1 yet, start there. In Episode 3, we'll talk about how to design a 2026 structure that supports the leader you are becoming, because you don't need a better plan. You need a better practice. If this episode resonated, share it with someone who's ready to stop repeating the same year with different tasks, and subscribe to Reflect Forward wherever you listen.

We've got a lot to cover today, and not all of it is fun, but it's all important. We have a long discussion about the shooting that occurred in Australia, despite their intense gun control laws, and there was a deadly Pennsylvania Machete Attack, but it wasn't in somewhere like Philadelphia, like you may think. Wanna hear the FULL Episode? Sign up for the Grad Program today! Just a Civilian?  Professor explained his recent article titled "Are You Just a Civilian?" which was published on Shooting News Weekly on December 14th, discussing how Hollywood portrays civilians with guns as incompetent and dangerous. Navy Firearms Training Safety Initiative The meeting focused on addressing issues with the U.S. Navy's handling of firearms training and safety. Professor and Zach discussed a recent incident where the Navy shared photos of poor firearms practices, which led to the creation of a promotional code "GONAVY" for a 15% discount on training materials at ShopSOTG.com and SOTGU. Jarrad confirmed that the P201 Home Study Cohort could help improve military firearms training skills. The group decided to offer this discount as a positive step to support Navy personnel and encourage better firearms training practices. Red Dot Myths and Training The discussion focused on the myths and realities of red dot sights on handguns. The Professor explained that red dot sights are for human shooters, not to increase gun accuracy, and emphasized that proper training and muscle tension are crucial for accurate shooting. Jarrad noted that while red dots don't make guns more accurate, they can help shooters identify movement during firing. The conversation concluded with Jarrad suggesting that honest self-reflection and seeking professional coaching can lead to improved shooting performance with red dot sights. Coffee Corner: Blink by Malcolm Gladwell The discussion then shifted to a new feature called The Coffee Corner, sponsored by Blackout Coffee, and the introduction of a new book review. The professor shared his experience with a broken coffee maker and how he used a French press as an alternative. Finally, he recommended the book "Blink" by Malcolm Gladwell, which he discovered through research on the UK Special Air Service. Scranton Machete Attack Investigation The group discussed a machete attack in Scranton, Pennsylvania, where two women were killed and another was critically injured. The suspect, Michael Woods, was apprehended by police who arrived quickly, though the professor questioned whether the response time made a difference given the severity of the attack. The discussion highlighted that violent incidents can occur in smaller cities like Scranton, challenging assumptions about crime rates in different locations, and emphasized the importance of being prepared for potential threats regardless of location.

After a brief fall hiatus, we return with Tom May of the Philadelphia-based punk rock institution The Menzingers! They've been touring and putting out critically-acclaimed records since 2006, so the obvious first question is how four high school friends from Scranton can keep the same line up and energy going strong for almost 20 years. Retrospectively, it seems obvious that the answer was "democracy". (Editor's note: this interview was recorded in early 2024) Besides a deep dive into guitar tone, we stay on topic and focus our conversation on in-ear monitors - including the active-ambient system Tom uses on stage, the Sensaphonics 3DMEs - and live event safety. Music heard in this episode is from The Menzinger's 8th and most recent studio album "Some of It Was True". Content Warning: this episode contains profanity. We challenge the sensitive listener to try talking about punk rock without the use of George Carlin's famous list of 7 words.

Synopsis: This episode is proudly sponsored by Quartzy. In this far-reaching conversation, Rahul Chaturvedi speaks with John Lepore, CEO & President of ProFound Therapeutics and CEO-Partner at Flagship Pioneering, tracing a career shaped by a deep commitment to understanding the causal machinery of human disease. John shares how a Harvard-trained physician-scientist evolved into a biotech leader building one of the industry's most ambitious platform companies. Reflecting on 17 years at GSK — from academic cardiologist to running global research — John describes the moment he realized traditional target discovery had reached its limits. That insight propelled him into Flagship's venture-creation ecosystem and ultimately into leading ProFound Therapeutics, where the team is uncovering tens of thousands of previously unknown human proteins that could fundamentally reshape drug discovery and unlock true first-in-class opportunities. John also offers a candid look at today's biotech leadership realities: navigating capital-tight markets, fostering high-trust pharma partnerships, making disciplined early kill decisions, and using AI to extract causal insights from vast proteomic datasets. Together, he and Rahul explore why the expanded human proteome may be medicine's next great frontier — and what it takes, scientifically and psychologically, to lead a company bold enough to pursue it. Biography: John Lepore, M.D., is CEO and President of ProFound Therapeutics and CEO-Partner at Flagship Pioneering, where he is leading a new era of drug discovery by harnessing the expanded proteome to build a pipeline of first-in-class medicines. A physician-scientist and accomplished pharma executive, he joined ProFound following a 17-year career at GSK, where he was most recently SVP, Head of Research, leading a 2,500+ person global team and driving a renewed focus on immunology and human genetics across target discovery and validation, modality platforms, drug discovery, and clinical translation. He also chaired GSK's Research Review and Investment Board, guiding capital allocation and R&D strategy. Under his leadership, GSK advanced 15 Phase 1 programs with first- or best-in-class potential and executed $1B+ in strategic R&D deals. Before joining the biopharma industry, Dr. Lepore was a faculty cardiologist and research investigator at the University of Pennsylvania, where his lab investigated the transcription regulation of cardiovascular development. He currently serves on the boards of ProFound, KSQ Therapeutics, and the Innovation Growth Board of Mass General Brigham. Dr. Lepore received his B.S. in Biology from the University of Scranton and his M.D. from Harvard Medical School, after which he completed his residency and post-doctoral training at Massachusetts General Hospital and the Harvard School of Public Health.

Thanksgiving has come and gone, but we can still talk turkey and a whole lot more in Division III than just the turkey. A number of programs are off to great starts and making headlines in the process. On Monday's Hoopsville, we break bread with a few programs who are headed into the holiday week already in a festive spirit. Programs with significant starts, eye-opening wins, and much more. And we get a sense of how the latest Top 25 polls of the regular season could shake out - including what teams may jump into or fall out of the Top 25. Guests appearing on the Hudl Hoopsville Hotline: - Nathan Wahle, Muskingum men's coach - Melissa Smeltzer-Kraft, Shenandoah women's coach - Ben O'Brien, No. 2 Scranton women's coach - Kevin Bettencourt, Endicott men's coach Plus, the number of topics Dave has some thoughts on continues to grow. We debut "Dave's Two-Cents" (formerly the "Hoopsville Rant") with some thoughts on scheduling and how new hires are causing a whole lot of problems and burned bridges. Also what is changing to combat unnecessary scheduling changes. Hoopsville is presented by D3hoops.com from the WBCA Studios.

Next week we're diving into the wild, over-the-top world of Hot Shots! Part Deux — but this week, we're sitting down with an absolute icon of strength, grit, and '90s TV greatness… Raye “Zap” Hollitt from American Gladiators!Whether you grew up glued to the Eliminator, love behind-the-scenes stories from peak '90s action TV, or just want to hear an inspiring journey from small-town beginnings to national fame, this episode is for you. Raye was one of the ORIGINAL Gladiators, and her story is incredible.In this episode we talk about:

This week, we're stepping back into the sun-drenched world of Renegade for its two-part TV movie Fighting Cage — a wild ride packed with American Gladiators, killer guest stars, and some truly legendary '90s hair choices.We dig into everything that makes this double episode a blast, including:

The exact day and hour of the end is unknown to all but the Father. But what we do know, Jesus tells us: His return will be sudden, like the flood in Noah's day, and when it arrives time will have run out. Jesus then gives two parables: the Ten Virgins, where only those ready with oil are allowed into the feast, and the Talents, where servants are judged by their faithfulness in using the Master's gifts. The message for believers is clear: "Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour."  The Rev. John Zimmerman, pastor of Immanuel Lutheran Church in Scranton, PA and St. John's Lutheran Church in Pittston, PA, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Matthew 24:36-25:30.  To learn more about Immanuel and St. John's, visit immanuelscranton.org and facebook.com/StJohnsLutheranChurchPittstonPa. The Gospel of Matthew bridges Old and New Testaments, presenting Jesus as the promised Messiah who fulfills the Law we could never keep and establishes His kingdom of grace for all nations. Written by a tax collector transformed by pure grace, Matthew reveals Christ as the true Son of David and Emmanuel (God with us) who challenges us with the crushing demands of the Law in His Sermon on the Mount to the sweet comfort of the Gospel in His death and resurrection. From royal genealogy to glorious resurrection, this verse-by-verse study proclaims the One who conquered sin, death, and the devil for us, now delivering forgiveness, life, and salvation through Word and Sacrament as He remains with His church always, even to the end of the age.  Thy Strong Word, hosted by Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church of Luverne, MN, reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light. Each weekday, two pastors fix our eyes on Jesus by considering Holy Scripture, verse by verse, in order to be strengthened in the Word and be equipped to faithfully serve in our daily vocations.

Who's more of a “king”: Donald Trump, who ran for election three times, won the popular vote, the Electoral College, and all the swing states in 2024, or Joe Biden, who was appointed by Democratic Party elites in 2020 to be the nominee after losing the first three primaries and remained sequestered to his basement for the remainder of the campaign? Monarchs conduct lawfare. For all his talk in 2016 about “locking her up,” President Donald Trump did not direct his administration to investigate Hillary Clinton, however, Trump “had 91 indictments filed by federal, local, and state prosecutors in cahoots,” points out Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”  “Joe Biden, in 2020, had lost the first three caucuses or primaries. He was going nowhere. And then a group of insiders, politicos, donors, the media panicked because they knew that to nominate a Elizabeth Warren, a Pete Buttigieg, especially a Bernie Sanders, would destroy the Democratic ticket. “So, they cooked up this idea that Joe Biden from Scranton—even though they knew he was already cognitively challenged—could be a veneer, a wax effigy. And then they did not allow him to campaign because we know what happens when he campaigns, as we saw in 2024. “He sat in the basement under the pretext of COVID. He outsourced his campaign like a royal monarch to his underlings in the media. They got him elected. And then he, more or less, abdicated while on the job and let the hard Left, in this quid pro quo arrangement, run the country.”

This week we finish breaking down The Job. We start off on the streets of New York with Jim and Karen and get some great background catches, and Angela does a fun deep dive on the "bar that used to be a Church" mentioned by Jim. Then, we discuss the very funny scene's back in Scranton where Pam accepts Dwight's offer to be the Secret Assistant to the Regional Manager and we get the introduction of the Schrute Bucks. Finally, we chat about those hilarious scenes with Jan leaving corporate, that iconic moment when Jim interrupts Pam's talking head, and Jenna reveals there was an alternate ending of this episode. Thank you for finishing season three with us, you served the podcast with great dignity.

This week we're breaking down Branch Closing and we have a lot to cover. We have to start by mentioning this is the episode that spawned the famous Michael Scott "This Is The Worst" meme, we dig into those Angela and Roy flirtations, and get into the intricacies of low-pony tails. Then, we get a great fan catch at David Wallace's house, and we find out Jim is coming back to Scranton. Finally, we couldn't say goodbye to Josh Porter without bringing on the amazing Charles Esten (Outer Banks on Netflix). Charles gives us his The Office origin story, talks about his family's love of the show, and gives us inside info about his last scenes with Andy (Ed Helms).  Office Ladies Website - Submit a fan question: https://officeladies.com/submitaquestion  Follow Us on Instagram: OfficeLadiesPod Episode Transcript To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.
