Catholic leaders in Seattle, Spokane, and Yakima have filed a federal lawsuit against state officials. They say a newly passed law violates their first amendment rights.

In this episode of BJJ Mental Models, Steve Kwan welcomes back Sonia Sillan from Combat Arts Academy to explore the concept of the “awkward turtles:” the introverted, unsure, or atypical students who often feel like outsiders in Jiu-Jitsu. Sonya unpacks how gym culture, coaching priorities, and interpersonal communication affect whether these students feel welcome or alienated. Together, they discuss how creating an inclusive, empathetic training environment isn't just good for business; it's essential for building resilient practitioners and a healthy mat culture. This conversation offers a roadmap for coaches and students alike to rethink how they engage with the most vulnerable members of their gym.Follow Sonia on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/soniasillanTrain with Sonia at Combat Arts Academy in Seattle:https://caaseattle.com/Mental models discussed in this episode:Jita Kyoeihttps://bjjmentalmodels.com/jita-kyoei/Compatible Intenthttps://bjjmentalmodels.com/compatible-intent/Controlled Breathinghttps://bjjmentalmodels.com/controlled-breathing/Staying Loosehttps://bjjmentalmodels.com/staying-loose/Escalation of Commitmenthttps://bjjmentalmodels.com/escalation-of-commitment/The Golden Rulehttps://bjjmentalmodels.com/golden-rule/Don't forget to check out BJJ Mental Models Premium!If you love the podcast, you'll definitely love our premium membership offerings.

Another day, another chaotic mess in Seattle where Mayor Harrell somehow thinks churchgoers are the real problem. Over 31 arrests in just four days, millions in taxpayer money wasted on police overtime, and the city's brilliant solution? Blame the people peacefully exercising their First Amendment rights while Antifa runs wild in the streets.We dive into the absolute circus outside City Hall where eight more arrests happened during what should have been a simple religious gathering. From masked protesters throwing tantrums to police using bikes as weapons, this footage captures Seattle's complete inability to maintain basic law and order. The contrast is striking—peaceful worship inside, chaos and violence outside, all while city officials point fingers at everyone except the actual troublemakers.Is anyone surprised that Seattle can't handle a church service without it turning into a riot? How much more taxpayer money will be burned on crowd control because our leaders refuse to address the real issues? And why does exercising religious freedom suddenly make you a "right-wing extremist" in this city?

So Seattle's mayor pulled a gun on a pregnant woman in 1996, resisted arrest, but somehow we're supposed to trust his judgment on Christian worshippers being "too dangerous" for public parks? Bruce Harrell's newly surfaced arrest records reveal he was charged with aggravated assault, resisting arrest, and carrying a concealed weapon during a casino parking dispute - yet he's now lecturing us about public safety while defending Antifa attacks on peaceful prayer services.We break down the full incident: the conflicting stories, the dismissed charges, and how Harrell's account has conveniently changed over three decades. Meanwhile, 31 Antifa members get arrested for actual violence against churchgoers, and our mayor rushes to their defense instead. The FBI is reportedly looking into targeted violence against religious groups in Seattle - is anyone surprised?Does a mayor who once brandished a weapon at an expectant mother really have the moral authority to decide which groups deserve First Amendment protections? What does this say about Seattle's leadership when taxpayer-funded permits become weapons against people of faith?Hit that subscribe button if you're tired of politicians playing by different rules than the rest of us!

Send us a textWith Dan and Andrew in attendance, the Minnesota Twins take the first but then lose the next two games against the Mariners at T-Mobile Park in Seattle. Dan talks with David about the experience of being there for such an exciting series, which from a neutral fan perspective would surely have been an excellent one to watch. They discuss the Twins' three ninth-inning comebacks, as well as the extra-inning flop in Game 2. David wonders where this fired-up version of Carlos Correa was earlier in the year, and Dan wonders what the Twins' plan is for Royce Lewis. Maybe, just maybe, Paul Molitor could speak to Lewis (and some other players) to make them better.

Chuck is out and HUGH MILLEN is in for the show! Let's talk Mariners! The Mariners had some tough battles against the Twins and managed to win the series with back-to-back wins Saturday and Sunday. How necessary was that series win? Was it must-win territory? :30- Mariners Morning After The Mariners walked it off Sunday afternoon to win the series with the Twins. Julio put himself into position to help the team get the W on a Randy Arozarena base hit. Julio was awarded a hit on what probably should have been an error, but some heads up base running got him to 3rd. Julio may not have achieved the superstar status placed on him early, but he can help you win in other ways and yesterday was a great example. :45- How deep is Hugh's sports hate when it comes to the OKC Thunder? Should you lose your Seattle “fan card” if you don't have hate for the Thunder?

ADAM WAINWRIGHT (MLB on FOX) joins us after spending the weekend in Seattle and watching this Mariners team. Adam gives us his thoughts on the Mariners starting pitching, roster construction and a breakdown of what did or didn't go wrong for Munoz on Friday night. :30- Cal fricking Raleigh… he hit his 6th home run in 6 games yesterday, but that's just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to our Platinum glove catcher. :45- Flag football is headed to the Olympics in 2028, but who should represent the US? We ask Hugh what he thinks about the ongoing debate.

Interview by Kris PetersAfter playing together in high school, guitarist Luke Bentham and drummer Kyle Fisher decided to take on the world by forming The Dirty Nil in 2006. The following year, they won the Juno Award for Breakthrough Group of the Year, kickstarting a career that would see the Canadian band rise to prominence over four albums and setting the band on a collision course with destiny.That meeting of superpowers seems set to transpire with the release of The Dirty Nil's fifth studio album, The Lash, on July 25. Recorded in just over two weeks, The Lash sees The Dirty Nil tap into an urgency of evolution that has been simmering quietly below the surface but has finally set itself free.Thematically, The Lash trades the band's usual romantic optimism for a cathartic scream, tackling everything from music industry burnout to heartbreak in a body of work that has been described as Luke's therapy record by Fisher. Stripping back the glitz and glam, The Dirty Nil go full-throttle on what matters most: no frills, just ferocity and good times in abundance.Bentham recently sat down with HEAVY to tell us more."We are gearing up to release our fifth studio album, The Lash, which unequivocally, in my opinion, is our best album," he began. "And I really do mean that sincerely. I know you probably get a lot of people on here saying that through perhaps gritted teeth, but this one, we do feel very strongly about it, and so we're extremely proud to present it to the world."We mention the more stripped back, raw sound promised on the album."The recording process was much faster and more stripped back than what we've pretty much ever done before," Bentham nodded. "We did it in two weeks with our friend down the street. Traditionally, we've worked with a producer from Seattle, who's an incredible producer with a huge resume of incredible albums, but this time we just did it with our friend down the street. So it was a very different process that way. During the album cycle for the last album, there wasn't a huge break or anything, and I think (with this one) we were just really feeling confident as a band, and the material came together very naturally and easily. I think that's part of the reason why I have such positive feelings about it, is because it wasn't a struggle."In the full interview, Luke highlighted the emotional depth of the album, expressing a connection to the darker aspects of human experience through music, and noted the introduction of strings as a new element in their sound. He shared an anecdote about a visit to the Vatican that inspired his songwriting, particularly a bronze relief that influenced the album's themes, although their attempt to use the artwork for the cover was halted by a cease and desist from the Vatican. He also reflected on the band's growth since their debut, emphasizing their increased musical competence and willingness to experiment, while remaining optimistic about future creative endeavours and more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

In them we learn of his life, death, and resurrection to rescue his people from among the nations—even us. Today, in 12:22-34, Jesus calls us to put off anxiety by trusting the Father for true riches that will not fail—in this life or the next. [sermon_media_line]

Make America Healthy Again, spearheaded by Department of Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., is bridging political divides through a shared value for healthy living and a skepticism over the number of vaccines given to children.   Now, conservative pro-life moms and liberal mothers in Colorado who make their own GMO-free baby food have something to agree on—the health and well-being of our children should always be placed above politics. But even as Kennedy announced that the Centers for Disease Control will no longer requires the COVID-19 vaccine for healthy pregnant women and children in its immunization schedule, far-left politicians doubled down on their vaccine love.   On this week's edition of “Problematic Women,” we discuss the left's latest search for meaning and leadership as Democrats double down on losing policies that are isolating voters.   Also on today's show, the FBI is investigating the mayor of Seattle. We explain why. And Jordan Peterson found himself in an awkward situation during a recent debate. Was he set up for failure? Plus, singer Demi Lovato got married.

Today in Current Events from a Christian Perspective:In Seattle, Washington, a group of Christians put on an event with worship music, singing, dancing and speakers, all to raise awareness and stand against boys being let into girls locker rooms, sports teams and bathrooms. Violent leftists like Antifa protested the event and started literally attacking both the event goers and the police. The Seattle mayor then took a stand and blamed the Christians, essentially saying, 'well, you shouldn't have been standing there.'If you all would just let boys dress up as girls and if you would stop praising God so fervently in public, the protesters would not have had to violently tried to stop you. Just stay home. Keep your religion out of my public space. PIC - Matthew 28Of course, the Christian faith is specifically a public one. 'Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me. 19Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, 20and teaching them to obey all that I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, even to the end of the age.' Matthew 28:19So, question, if we are not supposed to proclaim the gospel publicly, then where and how do we disciple the nations?All this and more today on ChurchPublic!..---At Church Public we create compelling content to equip you to follow Jesus and engage in the public square including Current Events from a Christian Perspective.Thanks for watching!

Seattle's mayor just blamed Christians for getting attacked by Antifa – you can't make this up. A church group obtained a legal permit, held a peaceful rally, and got violently confronted by masked protesters who screamed hate speech for three hours straight. The result? 31 Antifa members arrested, zero Christians arrested, and somehow Mayor Bruce Harrell decides the Christians are the problem. Now the FBI is investigating after Dan Bonino announced they're looking into targeted violence against religious groups. But here's the kicker – Harrell called the churchgoers 'far-right' simply for existing near an LGBTQ+ neighborhood. Since when do taxpayer-funded parks belong exclusively to one community? Are we really at the point where holding a permitted religious event makes you a far-right extremist? The footage speaks for itself: peaceful Christians singing about love while Antifa screams profanities and attacks police. Is anyone surprised our elected officials are more concerned with protecting the narrative than protecting constitutional rights?

Another day, another Seattle disaster where city officials somehow blame everyone except the people actually causing violence. Mayor Harrell's mental gymnastics are Olympic-level as he tries to explain why 23 Antifa arrests at a permitted Christian rally are somehow the churchgoers' fault. We break down the chaos at Cal Anderson Park—yes, the same park that hosted the CHOP/CHAZ disaster—where masked agitators attacked families attending a lawful "Don't Mess with Our Kids" rally. The city approved the permit, police made proper arrests, yet the mayor still finds a way to blame the victims. What does it say about Seattle's values when peaceful worshippers need police protection from violent counter-protesters? Is anyone surprised that the same park that saw two murders during CHOP is still a magnet for mayhem? How is attacking families for their religious beliefs considered "tolerance"? Seattle's already short hundreds of cops, taxpayer money keeps funding this circus, and residents are left wondering who's actually running their city. Like and subscribe if you're tired of officials defending the indefensible while your tax dollars pay for the cleanup.

On this episode, Tony Brueski digs into one of Seattle's most chilling legends—the haunted Hotel Sorrento. Built in 1909 with elegance and ambition, this historic landmark has stood as a symbol of luxury for over a century. But behind the charm and ivy-covered walls lies something far more unsettling: tales of unexplained footsteps, chilling apparitions, and one infamous room that guests and staff alike have grown to fear.   Tony follows the historical trail from the hotel's origins through decades of paranormal reports, guest accounts, and even possible connections to the spirit of writer Alice B. Toklas. We explore whether the activity in Room 408 is rooted in residual hauntings or something more intelligent and deliberate. Is it all in our heads, or is the Hotel Sorrento truly one of the most haunted places in the Pacific Northwest?

This is powerfulWhat Does God's Word Say?John 11:47-5247 Then the chief priests and the Pharisees called a meeting of the Sanhedrin.“What are we accomplishing?” they asked. “Here is this man performing many signs. 48 If we let him go on like this, everyone will believe in him, and then the Romans will come and take away both our temple and our nation.”49 Then one of them, named Caiaphas, who was high priest that year, spoke up, “You know nothing at all! 50 You do not realize that it is better for you that one man die for the people than that the whole nation perish.”51 He did not say this on his own, but as high priest that year he prophesied that Jesus would die for the Jewish nation, 52 and not only for that nation but also for the scattered children of God, to bring them together and make them one. 53 So from that day on they plotted to take his life.1 Corinthians 10:6-136 Now these things occurred as examples to keep us from setting our hearts on evil things as they did. 7 Do not be idolaters, as some of them were; as it is written: “The people sat down to eat and drink and got up to indulge in revelry.” 8 We should not commit sexual immorality, as some of them did—and in one day twenty-three thousand of them died. 9 We should not test Christ, as some of them did—and were killed by snakes. 10 And do not grumble, as some of them did—and were killed by the destroying angel.11 These things happened to them as examples and were written down as warnings for us, on whom the culmination of the ages has come. 12 So, if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don't fall! 13 No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.

Arnab Deka lives in Vancouver and loves the Pacific Northwest. He was never formally educated in computer science or software engineering - in fact, while he was studying civil engineering, he fell in love with building things and eventually, building software. Outside of tech, he is a family man and loves to sup with them and his dog. He also enjoys astronomy, and is known to attend a star party or 2, with his telescope in hand.Arnab took a sabbatical from work, and on this journey, he realized that he liked deep work and interacting with customers directly - as opposed to high level strategy and planning. He met with his now co-founder in 2022, walking then Seattle lake front, and realized what podcast junkies they both were - and they decided to build something for it.This is the creation story of Metacast.SponsorsPaddle.comSema SoftwarePropelAuthLinkshttps://metacast.app/https://www.linkedin.com/in/or9ob/Our Sponsors:* Check out Kinsta: https://kinsta.com* Check out Vanta: https://vanta.com/CODESTORYSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/code-story/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Today on the Matt Walsh Show, the First Amendment has been suspended in Seattle as the city allows Antifa militants to accost and assault Christians at will. Also, King Charles delivers a land acknowledgement in Canada. And Secret Service agents are suspended after getting into a fight with each other on the job. If that sounds familiar, it's because the same thing happened last year. And all of the agents involved, in both cases, are women. What unapproved conclusions might we draw from that? Click here to join the member-exclusive portion of my show: https://bit.ly/4bEQDy6 Ep.1604 - - - DailyWire+: Don't miss the DailyWire+ Memorial Day Sale—get 40% off an Annual Membership with code DW40. Check out Episode 1 of Jordan B.

On this episode, Tony Brueski digs into one of Seattle's most chilling legends—the haunted Hotel Sorrento. Built in 1909 with elegance and ambition, this historic landmark has stood as a symbol of luxury for over a century. But behind the charm and ivy-covered walls lies something far more unsettling: tales of unexplained footsteps, chilling apparitions, and one infamous room that guests and staff alike have grown to fear.   Tony follows the historical trail from the hotel's origins through decades of paranormal reports, guest accounts, and even possible connections to the spirit of writer Alice B. Toklas. We explore whether the activity in Room 408 is rooted in residual hauntings or something more intelligent and deliberate. Is it all in our heads, or is the Hotel Sorrento truly one of the most haunted places in the Pacific Northwest?
