#189 - A cone head at baggage claim. A prank that makes a whole terminal laugh. And beneath the costumes and skits, a marriage held together by faith, service, and a fierce tenderness forged in grief. We sit down with Troy and Melinda Hicks—Hicks in the Wild—to explore how everyday adventure can coexist with loss and how playful creativity becomes a lifeline.Their love story starts in college, survives a mission and distance, and grows into a partnership where roles fit like puzzle pieces: Melinda crafts the ideas and heart-forward projects; Troy builds the systems, supply chains, and giving model. That model was born from pain. They share the sudden preterm birth of their son Tanner at 24 weeks, three days in the NICU, and the sacred details that became anchors—a donated blanket and cap, a father who knew how to navigate the unthinkable. Melinda now sews tiny blankets and diaper covers for NICU babies, transforming sorrow into service families can feel in their hands.The Hicks also walk through a second crucible: their five-month-old's neck tumor and the week of terror before a successful surgery. That experience reframed hospitals as places of skill and hope, inspiring them to donate a percentage of their revenue to Phoenix Children's Hospital. We dig into their mission-driven venture, Searching for Jesus, a Christ-centered Advent tradition that turned their December into daily wonder and helped their kids fall in love with prayer. Along the way, we talk viral moments, Lord Farquaad gags, a months-long “bird landing” quest, and the simple rule that guides their content—if it isn't fun, they don't do it.What emerges is a blueprint for meaningful, joyful living: schedule delight, let faith hold your anger long enough to heal, make small things that help real people, and keep choosing each other through the messy middle of family life. Adventure, they remind us, isn't a mountain or an ocean crossing—it's a decision to move forward without knowing every turn, and to laugh together when you can.

LaTascia Taylor thought she had met her fairy tale. Charming. Successful. Confident. The kind of man who walks into your life and makes you feel seen. But what started as love quickly unraveled into manipulation, danger, and a criminal empire she never saw coming. What LaTascia didn't know was that the man she fell for was running a major drug operation. And little by little, he pulled her in. First moving money across state lines… then transporting packages… and eventually flying internationally with drugs hidden in luggage. She found herself in way too deep — and on a flight to Europe, everything came crashing down. Arrested. In a foreign country. No support. No way home. And stuck for 2 years in an overseas prison. #truecrime #survivalstory #prisonstories #traumarecovery #toxicrelationships #drugtrafficking #lockedinwithianbick #secondchances Thank you to BLUECHEW & BRUNT for sponsoring this episode: BlueChew: Visit https://bluechew.com/ and use promo code LOCKEDIN at checkout to get your first month of BlueChew & pay five bucks for shipping.

Frog and Toad Are Friends, at least according to a venerable children's book. And so are Jason (Crazy Town's resident biology nerd) and conservationist brothers, Kyle and Trevor Ritland, authors of The Golden Toad: An Ecological Mystery and the Search for a Lost Species. The three eco-explorers connect over wondrous habitats and critters in Costa Rica's cloud forest and swap stories that cover Lazarus species, global pandemics, self-taught naturalists, birding, and even pregnancy tests. Spliced into the nostalgia and stories are reflections on how to cope in a world where biodiversity is declining and how to regain the connections that modernity has severed between humanity and wild nature. Originally recorded on 10/9/25.Sources/Links/Notes:Kyle and Trevor Ritland, The Golden Toad: An Ecological Mystery and the Search for a Lost Species, Diversion Books, 2025.Adventure Term, Kyle and Trevor's nonprofit experiential learning initiativeRelated episode(s) of Crazy Town:Episode 40, "Nature Detachment and Ecocide, or… the Story of the Marauding Mountain Lion"Episode 49, "A Day at the Zoo Is No Walk in the Park: Humanity's Overexploitation of Animals and Nature"

Paige's journey began with the death of her mom and spiraled into addiction and exploitation. Searching for love, she found only emptiness — until one night, broken and desperate, she cried out to God. What followed was a miraculous transformation. Now, redeemed and free, Paige uses her story to reach women in the sex industry, proving that no one is too far gone for God's grace to rewrite their story.Support the showVisit our website for more information on our ministry.https://theunseenstory.org/

Two prisoners have been released by mistake from Wandsworth prison in London in the space of a week, including an Algerian national who is a convicted sex offender. Also: Democrats in the United States are celebrating victories in a series of elections, including Zohran Mamdani becoming the mayor of New York. And the French government says it has started the process of suspending the online platform of the fast-fashion retailer Shein.

November brings us to the end of another church year, which focuses our attention on the last things, on death and resurrection, on heaven and hell. We confess in the creeds, “I believe in … the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting”; “I look for the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come.” It is remarkable that these creedal truths were already as good as accomplished thousands of years ago, with prophecies inspired by the Holy Spirit and written down by men such as Job (19:25–27), Daniel (12:2–3) and Isaiah (26:19). Some Christians take Revelation, Daniel, Ezekiel and other prophetic books of the Bible to be “guidebooks to the end times.” However, careful study of both the Old and New Testaments shows that their focus is on comforting the church on earth with knowledge of the victory of Jesus Christ over sin, death and the devil and His promise to take us to Himself for eternity. As we open the Old Testament and see our present and future revealed there, we will need to keep in mind the “prophetic perspective” that could be observed in Jeremiah 31:31–34 and Joel 2:28–32, in which some predictions have been fulfilled in the messianic age but others must wait until the end of time. Rev. Carl Roth, pastor of Grace Lutheran Church in Elgin, TX, joins Sarah to talk about the “Searching Scripture” feature in the November 2025 issue of the Lutheran Witness titled “The New Heavens and New Earth” on Isaiah 65-66. This year, “Searching Scripture” is themed “Opening the Old Testament” and will walk through ways that the Old Testament witnesses to Jesus Christ and His grace, mercy and peace, delivered through the holy Christian church.

What if your purpose isn't what you've been told? Beneath the surface of ambition and achievement lies a deeper truth. One that's been buried by five deceptive lies. Join Kyle to uncover the hidden design of purpose that's not earned, chased or revealed in grandeur, but quietly lived from God's grace.

Your body does not just run on food or supplements. It runs on energy and information. This episode reveals how to harness that energy for faster recovery, stronger mitochondria, and better emotional resilience. You will learn how energy fields, frequency, and information medicine are reshaping the science of human performance, longevity, and anti-aging. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Harry Massey, a British entrepreneur, filmmaker, and visionary in the field of bioenergetics. In his 20s, Harry's health collapsed after a series of physical injuries, viral infections, and emotional trauma left him bedridden for seven years with chronic fatigue syndrome. Conventional medicine could not provide answers, so Harry began studying energy and information as the missing foundations of human health. His discovery of the pioneering research of Australian scientist Peter Fraser led to a breakthrough. Using Fraser's early frequency-imprinted remedies, Harry experienced a dramatic recovery and went on to co-found NES Health, now Energy4Life, to bring this new field of bioenergetics to the world. Backed by published studies at UC San Diego showing a 22 percent increase in mitochondrial efficiency and the activation of more than 1,000 genes for cell resilience, Harry's work unites ancient healing wisdom with modern physics, light therapy, and quantum biology. Together, Dave and Harry explore how bioenergetics, light frequencies, and digital information enhance neuroplasticity, metabolism, and sleep optimization more effectively than supplements or nootropics alone. You will discover how trauma drains energy, how to restore it through the body's natural field communication systems, and how wearable tech and AI are transforming functional medicine. You'll Learn: • How bioenergetic wearables increase mitochondrial energy by 22 percent • Why emotional trauma and energy leaks accelerate aging • How structured water and light frequencies store biological information • The connection between quantum biology, neuroplasticity, and healing • How energy fields regulate longevity, metabolism, and brain optimization • Why AI-powered diagnostics and frequency medicine are the next frontier in biohacking Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking. With over 1,000 interviews and 1 million monthly listeners, The Human Upgrade brings you the knowledge to take control of your biology, extend your longevity, and optimize every system in your body and mind. Each episode delivers cutting-edge insights in health, performance, neuroscience, supplements, nutrition, biohacking, emotional intelligence, and conscious living. New episodes are released every Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Sunday (BONUS). Dave asks the questions no one else will and gives you real tools to become stronger, smarter, and more resilient.

Devin Prince grew up in Toledo, Ohio, and became a father at just 17 years old. Struggling to provide, he turned to selling drugs — and soon fell into addiction himself. What started as a hustle spiraled out of control when a robbery gone wrong forced him to flee, landing him on Toledo's Most Wanted list. While on the run, he became involved in a scam and later continued dealing drugs in Virginia, where he was eventually arrested and sentenced to three years in state prison. But in a shocking twist, luck was on his side — the robbery case that once had him labeled one of Toledo's most wanted fell apart, giving him an unexpected second chance. In this episode, Devin opens up about teenage fatherhood, drug dealing, addiction, being a fugitive, life in Virginia prison, and the moment everything changed. #MostWanted #TrueCrimeStory #FromFugitiveToFelon #PrisonLife #RedemptionStory #Toledo #CrimeDocumentary #podcastinterview Thank you to BLUECHEW for sponsoring this episode: Visit https://bluechew.com/ and use promo code LOCKEDIN at checkout to get your first month of BlueChew & pay five bucks for shipping.

Surrender Isn't Weakness, It's Freedom with Yeshaia Blakeney | The Hopeaholics PodcastIn this thought-provoking and deeply human episode, Yeshaia Blakeney opens up about his journey through addiction, self-destruction, and spiritual awakening with striking honesty and wisdom. Growing up in the chaos of Hollywood, Yeshaia describes feeling emotionally adrift and spiritually disconnected long before drugs entered the picture. What began as an attempt to escape pain and emptiness eventually led him into the darkness of addiction, arrests, and broken relationships. He recounts sitting in a jail cell — the moment he realized, “This isn't who I am” — and how that breaking point became the foundation of his recovery. Through faith, humility, and an unrelenting search for truth, Yeshaia found that healing wasn't about willpower, but surrender. He now dedicates his life to helping others rediscover their own humanity, guiding people toward authenticity, connection, and spiritual growth through his work at Recovery Integrity. With disarming vulnerability, he challenges the misconception that sobriety alone is the goal, emphasizing instead that true recovery means finding meaning, love, and purpose beyond the pain. This episode is both a wake-up call and a source of hope — a raw conversation about redemption, faith, and the beautiful struggle of being fully human.#thehopeaholics  #redemption #recovery #AlcoholAddiction #AddictionRecovery #wedorecover #SobrietyJourney #MyStory #Hope #wedorecover #treatmentcenter #natalieevamarieJoin our patreon to get access to an EXTRA EPISODE every week of ‘Off the Record', exclusive content, a thriving recovery community, and opportunities to be featured on the podcast. https://patreon.com/TheHopeaholics Go to www.Wolfpak.com today and support our sponsors.

Brad and Ryan are back to break down the Pacers' rough 0–4 start to the season and a road trip filled with close calls and mounting injuries after the Pacers fall in Dallas 107-105. Pascal Siakam continues to do it all, Jarace Walker delivers a career-high 20 point performance, and Mac McClung sees his first action in blue and gold. But a cold night from deep — especially from Aaron Nesmith — sealed another frustrating loss to wrap the trip. The guys look back on what's gone wrong so far, what bright spots still exist, and what needs to change as the Pacers return to Indy for four straight at home, including a Halloween In-Season Tournament matchup with Atlanta.

After a time of rest and renewal during the Jubilee Year, Fr. Mark-Mary, Fr. Innocent, Fr. Angelus, and Fr. PT are returning on November 5th. As we look forward to their return, enjoy re-listening to this previously released episode and join us in gratitude for the ways God has been at work during their time away. The Poco a Poco podcast happens because of many generous donors, including recurring monthly donations of any amount. Thinking about helping out? You can give at https://spiritjuice.org/supportpoco. Thank you! --- God wants to go back into our lives and our stories—and start speaking light, redemption and truth over that. There's the need for us to have a radical opening of our hearts and honesty to what really is happening in our lives. We have to be searching and fearless to admit what's inside our "junk room" and bring that to the Lord. Whatever makes our lives unmanageable is just a symptom of something else. We not only need to look at the things that make our lives unmanageable but also we look at the things that drive them and the ripple effect that it had caused. This episode focuses on the gift and highlights of the remaining step.

On today's show we are talking about how to search the Real Estate Espresso Podcast. With over 2800 episodes there is a significant body of work. We have many loyal listeners and I often hear about past episodes from listeners. Searching 2800 episodes for something you have heard in the past can be a daunting task. So much so that most people won't even try. So we have made the investment in creating a custom AI tool, specific to the Real Estate Espresso podcast.Let's imagine that you want to know what did Victor have to say about a particular topic, Victor AI will summarize the information in the podcast on that topic. For example, if you asked about what I had to say about industrial property metrics in Dallas, it will summarize the content and also take you to those specific episodes on that topic. We are undergoing internal testing before releasing it to the general public. But we expect to formally release it in the coming weeks. ------------**Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1)   iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613)   Website: [www.victorjm.com](http://www.victorjm.com)   LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce](http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce)   YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso)   Email: [podcast@victorjm.com](mailto:podcast@victorjm.com)  **Y Street Capital:** Website: [www.ystreetcapital.com](http://www.ystreetcapital.com)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital)   Instagram: [@ystreetcapital](http://www.instagram.com/ystreetcapital)  

Whether you known him as Sasquatch, Bigfoot, Yeti, Thla'Thla, Sninik, or something else, you've heard the legends - the stories of the hairy mountain man who lives, as writer John Zada says, "in primeval nature and collective memory." And today, we're plunging deep into Canada's ancient forests to find him. But make no mistake - this isn't Bigfoot searching like you've seen before. There are no infrared cameras, scanners, or traps. Instead, we'll follow John as he listens and learns from Canada's First Nations peoples, framing his investigation within a greater story of indigenous myth, community, and sacred land. When John first began hearing about a flurry of Sasquatch sightings, he was visiting the Heiltsuk Nation in British Columbia on an unrelated assignment. But he couldn't shake the stories from his mind. Intrigued, he decided to embark on a trip dedicated entirely to following these stories to their roots. And in so doing, he uncovered something that goes much deeper than footprints or rumors. This is a story about monsters - but it's also one that tells us about ourselves. And along the way, it's about the power of myth, the need for environmental activism, and the tangled webs of our own psyches.

UNFILTERED: Courageous Conversations about Grief and the Loss of Loved Ones   Grief isn't neat, predictable, or something to "get over." In this deeply moving episode of UNFILTERED: Courageous Conversations, Daphna and Amy explore the raw, human side of grief.  What it really feels like to lose someone, how society often rushes the grieving process, and why true healing begins with acknowledgment, not avoidance. From awkward condolences to moments of unexpected laughter, this episode invites listeners to embrace grief as a natural, messy, and profoundly human experience. Join us for a heartfelt conversation that reminds us all: you're not broken, you're grieving. And that's okay.   Timestamps [00:00:25] Grief as a universal experience [00:07:15] Why acknowledging grief matters [00:14:08] What not to say when someone is grieving [00:20:31] Returning to work while grieving [00:22:48] Bereavement and workplace support [00:29:24] The ongoing nature of grief [00:31:09] Searching for meaning after loss [00:36:44] The messy and transformative nature of grief [00:41:15] Appreciating love before loss [00:43:46] Continuing relationships with loved ones

Send us a textThis question wracks many with doubt. It is one that has been attempted to be answered for millennia. The long answer attempts to dissect this complex question into smaller and more congruent pieces. Is God good? Many life philosophies attempt to prove God isn't good, or simply isn't there at all. The Bible has a vast amount of writing on this subject. There is a God, and He is good. Does God allow bad things on this Earth? Yes. He does not snap these things out of existence. That also does not make Him bad. Pain and suffering are presented as tools, first as consequence of mankind, and then as causes intended to inspire you to draw closer to goodness, and therefore God. Evil is another concept altogether. The Bible speaks of God destroying evil once during the flood. Then, God sent His Son to atone for the sins of man. Jesus's sacrifice on the cross and subsequent resurrection is the victory over evil. No power can hold God. Context is important when you consider eternity. A light momentary affliction is nothing compared to what is to come. =====Searching for answers to life's questions? Need help finding a church? Drop us a line.

Episode 1851: Dr. Benjamin Ritter challenges the modern obsession with “meaningful work,” revealing how the search for fulfillment from employers often leads to disengagement and turnover. He argues that true meaning isn't found, it's created, through personal accountability and job crafting. Both employees and employers must shift focus: employees must own their sense of purpose, while employers should empower them to shape roles they can love. Read along with the original article(s) here:⁠ https://www.liveforyourselfconsulting.com/articles/2020/12/14/the-dangers-of-searching-for-meaningful-work-a-letter-to-employers-and-employees⁠ Quotes to ponder: “Employees are searching for meaningful work and feel that meaning is something they can find, or something an employer can give them.” “The idea that your work should ‘give' you meaning, as if it's responsible for how you feel, is incredibly misleading.” “The only thing an employer can actually give their employees is the power to craft a job they can love from a job they have.”

Send us a textWorking as a librarian by day and making pottery in her garage studio by night, Becky wrestles with a challenge many makers face: how do you develop a distinctive artistic voice when you're working in isolation? What if the pressure to constantly produce—amplified by social media's highlight reel—is actually drowning out the quiet work of discovering what you're truly trying to say? Through Becky's journey from community studios to her home workspace, and ultimately to seeking mentorship, we see how the introspective work of noticing what you notice and allowing yourself to be vulnerable about your creative exploration can transform not just your work, but your entire relationship with your craft. When we, as makers, give ourselves permission to prioritize being curious over meeting productivity expectations, we can often discover that the creative restlessness we've been feeling isn't a problem to solve—it's actually pointing us toward the work we're meant to be making…Becky's Instagram: @hawthorn_ceramicsMore information on Naomi Clement's mentorship program can be found here.Love this podcast?

Ghosts seem far out of the realm of science. But small groups of investigators remain committed to proving — or disproving — the existence of paranormal phenomena. On this episode, we find out what motivates these investigators, and we'll hear about a lab on the UCLA campus that studied paranormal activities.

Was Joseph Smith a mystic? Searching for the term ‘mysticism' on the Church website yields, “See: False Doctrine, Sorcery, Superstitions; Traditions of Men.” So it's no wonder many church members haven't thought much about mysticism—the role it may have played in Joseph's experience, or how it might inform their own everyday lives or transform their spiritual practices. But poet Kathryn Knight Sonntag describes it differently: “Trusting the groundless ground, trusting that the darkness or the chaos or the unknown place actually is deeply full of knowing and love and purpose. And that it's ultimately the path into apotheosis. It's ultimately where we begin that journey of becoming divine.” In Episode 241, Kathryn joins Susan and Cynthia to explore the concept of mysticism. What might it look like for Latter-day Saints to step off the prescribed map and onto the sacred ground of our own lives in pursuit of personal encounters with God?
