Send us a textWhat makes a true cowboy? It goes far beyond the iconic hat and weathered expression – it lives in the worn leather of a saddle that's witnessed countless sunsets and the rhythmic jingle of spurs that speak their own language. In this captivating conversation, author Michael King joins us to discuss his new book "A Cowboy's Tale of Words: The Meaning of Saddles and Spurs," which explores the soul of the American West through its most iconic tools and terminology. King, whose fascination with etymology began in graduate school, has crafted a unique blend of historical research, creative storytelling, and linguistic exploration that brings the authentic cowboy experience to life.The highlight of our discussion centers on the fascinating etymology of "buckaroo" – primarily derived from the Spanish "vaquero" but potentially influenced by the Gullah-Geechee culture's term "bukhra." This multicultural linguistic heritage mirrors the diverse influences that shaped frontier life itself. King's book captures this complexity through meticulously researched fictional narratives that transport readers to specific moments in cowboy history, like the spring branding of 1874, complete with historically accurate details about everything from local flora to period-specific slang.For anyone who's ever felt the call of the open range or wondered about the deeper significance behind cowboy culture, this conversation offers fresh insights into a defining chapter of American history.

In the U.S., a national push to reform K-12 education through policy and law changes is gaining momentum, driven by organizations, NGOs, and lobbyists. This movement is notably propelled by the SIECUS initiative, originally established in 1964 to promote comprehensive sex education. SIECUS has evolved, promoting sex education as a vehicle for broad cultural shifts towards sexual and reproductive freedoms. Their "Sex Ed for Social Change" campaign aims to influence societal norms and rights related to sexual health by integrating these lessons into school curriculums. Critics argue that this approach promotes a liberal agenda, extending beyond education to include broader social influences. Sex Ed For Social Change RebrandThe campaign has led to a significant rise in legislative actions with SIECUS at the helm of the Sex Education Policy Action Council (SEPAC), collaborating with various state entities to propagate comprehensive sex education policies. This coordinated effort seeks to increase the adoption of these policies at all levels of government and boost the number of policymakers supportive of comprehensive sex education.Despite the advocacy for educational and social change, there has been a notable backlash with a marked increase in parental rights bills and restrictive legislation concerning sexual and reproductive health education. This resistance highlights a growing divide over the role of education in shaping societal values and the rights of parents in overseeing their children's education. The battle lines are drawn as both sides mobilize to shape the future cultural landscape through the educational system.Support the showIf you need assistance with a situation in your area, please fill out our free consultation form.DONATE TODAY!www.ParentsRightsInEducation.com

Send us a textA chance assignment to photograph a homeless camp became a 35-year redemption story when photojournalist Ted Jackson stumbled upon Jackie Wallace sleeping under a New Orleans bridge. What seemed like an ordinary July day in 1990 transformed into an extraordinary journey when the homeless man uttered six words that would change both their lives forever: "You ought to do a story about me."Behind those words lay an astonishing truth—this disheveled man had played in three Super Bowls, setting NFL records during his career with the Vikings, Colts, and Rams. Ted's subsequent newspaper story launched Jackie from the streets into rehabilitation, marriage, and twelve years of sobriety before addiction's cruel grip pulled him back under. Their paths would cross again years later, leading to renewed friendship and ultimately culminating in their co-authored book published by HarperCollins: "You Ought to Do a Story About Me: Addiction, an Unlikely Friendship, and the Endless Quest for Redemption."Ted frames their unexpected connection as a divine appointment, explaining how God positions us precisely where we need to be—if only we have eyes to notice the opportunities and courage to step through open doors. Jackie's journey shatters misconceptions about addiction, revealing how even a "squeaky clean" Christian athlete fell into crack cocaine's grasp following his mother's death. Through their story, we witness addiction's devastating power alongside the equally powerful forces of friendship, faith, and persistent grace.The relationship between these unlikely friends offers profound insights into redemption as an ongoing process rather than a one-time event. As Ted shares their experience navigating the complexities of supporting someone in recovery—even dividing book proceeds in ways that wouldn't enable relapse—listeners gain practical wisdom about walking alongside those struggling with addiction. Their story reminds us that God's work often unfolds in the most unexpected encounters, through ordinary people willing to see others through His eyes.Visit tedjacksonphoto.com to explore Ted's photography portfolio and find links to their powerful book that continues changing lives across the country.Support the showIf you would like to be a guest and share your story, click this link: https://thepromoter.org/story/ Thanks for Listening, and subscribe to hear a new episode each week!

Send us a textThe transition from college to adulthood has dramatically transformed over recent decades, with financial independence, full-time employment, and independent living occurring much later for today's graduates than their 1980s counterparts. Yet despite these shifting timelines, Sallie Mae's latest research reveals that higher education continues to deliver tremendous value for Gen Z.According to Annat Shrabstein, Senior Director of Consumer Insights & Brand Strategy at Sallie Mae, their "How America Succeeds After College 2025" report uncovers interesting insights about what success truly means for recent graduates. Research reveals a significant shift in how Gen Z defines post-college success, balancing financial health, mental wellbeing, and career satisfaction in a world where traditional adulthood milestones are happening later than ever. The data challenges common assumptions about higher education's value while highlighting critical opportunities to better prepare students for life after graduation.• Only 25% of 21-year-olds in 2021 were financially independent, compared to 42% in 1980• 90% of recent graduates report positive college experiences, with 70% believing education was worth the cost• 74% of grads who used student loans say they would have rather borrowed than not gone to college • Students who use career services are significantly more likely to find jobs in their field• 64% of graduates wish they had fully engaged in all their college had to offer• Having a mentor is the attribute most strongly associated with post-college success• Almost two-thirds of recent graduates are living with parents two years after collegeVisit salliemae.com to access college planning tools including Scholly Scholarship Search, Scout College Search, step-by-step FAFSA guides, and research reports.

Send us a text! (add your email to get a response)Do you have a family member, friend or roommate whose relationship to food is a little...concerning? Eating disorders hide in plain sight, often disguised as diet culture, fitness goals, or "healthy eating." But beneath these socially acceptable lifestyles lie deadly mental health conditions that claim more lives than almost any other psychiatric disorder.In this episode, we break down the clinical realities of various eating disorders while exploring the profound ways they impact both individuals and their loved ones. We examine anorexia's deadly grip and how it combines food restriction with a distorted body image so powerful that even severely underweight individuals see themselves as fat. The disorder's perfectionism and need for control create a psychological prison that's hard to escape.We discuss bulimia's binge-purge cycle, where out-of-control eating episodes are followed by compensatory behaviors like vomiting or excessive exercise. We also discuss binge eating disorder and the lesser-known ARFID, which involves food restriction based on sensory issues rather than weight concerns.As you probably already know, these disorders can be incredibly hard on the family dynamic. Eating disorders transform dinner tables into battlegrounds and marriages into war zones. We cover strategies for supporting loved ones without enabling disordered behaviors, emphasizing the importance of family therapy and creating an environment that de-emphasizes weight and appearance.Whether you're worried about someone you love or seeking to understand these complex conditions better, check out KulaMind to get support and community around loving someone with eating disorders.

Send us a textGhost stories often begin with dark and stormy nights, but Marshal Ed Masterson's begins with moonlit rails and the low, mournful groan of Santa Fe tracks. This poetic journey through time explores the tragic fate of a forgotten lawman whose remains have been relocated multiple times as Dodge City expanded, ultimately losing his marker and proper recognition.Marshal Ed Masterson once wore his star with pride, keeping peace in wild Dodge City until a fateful gunfight ended his life. First laid to rest on Cemetery Hill, his remains were later moved to Prairie Grove and then to Maple Grove as the growing town required more land for development. Somewhere between these transitions, his name was lost—"a casualty of gain" as the poem hauntingly describes. While tourists flock to Dodge City seeking the ghosts of more famous figures like Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday, they remain unaware of the true phantom in their midst: Ed Masterson, eternally walking his final patrol.The ballad presents a stark contrast between Ed and his brother Bat Masterson, whose "legend lives" while Ed remains "lost to time and cold." This powerful meditation on memory, progress, and what we owe to forgotten heroes serves as a cautionary tale about how easily history can erase even those who made the ultimate sacrifice. The next time you feel an unexpected chill on the streets of Dodge City, remember it might just be Marshal Ed—still searching for his rightful resting place, a lawman without a sanctuary, forever seeking the peace that progress denied him.Support the showIf you'd like to buy one or more of our fully illustrated dime novel publications, you can click the link I've included.

Send us a textEver wondered how elite trainers build confidence in both sport dogs and those with behavioural challenges? Lauren Langman and Jamie dive deep into the transformative world of confidence circuits – a versatile training approach that's changing how dogs learn to navigate their environment with precision and trust.Confidence circuits combine problem-solving with physical awareness, creating a series of obstacles where dogs must thoughtfully place their paws while maintaining focus. The beauty lies in their accessibility – you don't need fancy equipment or vast spaces to get started. From bath mats and broom handles to recycled drawers and yoga blocks, everyday household items become powerful training tools when arranged strategically. Safety remains paramount, with both trainers emphasising non-slip surfaces to prevent injuries and build positive associations.The applications are remarkably diverse. For puppies, these circuits develop crucial body awareness. For senior dogs or those with neurological deficits (like Lauren's dog, Brave), they help combat issues like foot scuffing. For "naughty but nice" dogs with behavioural challenges, they provide focus and build trust through micro-moments of controlled separation. For sport dogs, they're invaluable for perfecting running contacts and dynamic movement patterns.What makes confidence circuits particularly special is their adaptability. Each session should be unique, challenging dogs to adapt to changing scenarios – an essential skill for real-world navigation. Even in limited spaces like hallways, minimal setups using just a few cones, a yoga block, and a step-in container can provide substantial physical and mental workouts.Ready to transform your dog's movement, focus and trust? Join our community by sharing your confidence circuit creations on social media or in our community space. This training approach truly is, as Lauren concludes, "a must for any dog owner" – regardless of your dog's age, ability or temperament.Join Our Games Club Membership Communityhttps://absolutedogs.me/jointheclubSupport the showIf you're loving the podcast, you'll love our NEW Sexier than a Squirrel Dog Training Challenge even more!

What remains when we remove Christ from Christianity? A powerful exploration of how modern Christianity often betrays its namesake by replacing love with judgment, inclusion with exclusion, and grace with condemnation.Through vulnerable personal stories and penetrating cultural analysis, we confront the uncomfortable reality that Gandhi articulated: "I like your Christ, but not your Christianity." From turning away from homeless people while claiming religious devotion, to Christians leading opposition against refugees and immigrants despite clear biblical mandates to welcome strangers, we see a faith that has lost its center.The heart of this spiritual crisis lies in our desperate search for validation and worth. We collect "medals" of achievement, relationship status, and financial success, wearing them proudly until they're inevitably stripped away. But Jesus offers a different medal—the unchangeable identity of being God's beloved child—that never leaves our neck regardless of circumstances or performance.Putting Christ back into Christianity requires two transformational moves: accepting Christ's unconditional love rather than frantically trying to earn it, and extending that same love to others—especially those who seem least deserving of it. The families of Emanuel AME Church shooting victims demonstrated this radical love when they looked at their loved ones' killer and said, "I forgive you."What would happen if we were given the microphone to address those who have wounded us most deeply? Could we find the courage to bless rather than curse? When we choose forgiveness over vengeance and love over hatred, Christ returns to the center of our faith, transforming it from hollow religion into living relationship.Support the showIf you enjoyed this episode, consider subscribing to Madison Church on your favorite podcast platform.

Do you ever feel like you're on a spiritual treadmill with God? Running faster, praying more, serving more—yet somehow not moving forward in your relationship with him? You're not alone.Pastor Stephen Feith tackles this universal struggle head-on, revealing how our performance-driven culture shapes our approach to faith. When we treat God like a boss to impress or a coach deciding if we'll make the team, we transform what should be a loving relationship into an exhausting quest for approval we can never quite catch.Through the powerful story of Jesus calling Matthew—a despised tax collector—and then dining with "sinners," we discover how Jesus redefined holiness. While the Pharisees built walls to keep "unclean" people out, Jesus built tables and invited everyone in. His revolutionary message, "I desire mercy, not sacrifice," challenges everything about performance-based religion.This message speaks directly to anyone caught in the cycle of religious striving. Whether you're feeling spiritually inadequate, struggling with perfectionism, or simply exhausted from trying to earn God's favor, Jesus offers a liberating alternative: "Healthy people don't need a doctor—sick people do." The greatest spiritual sickness is thinking we don't need help.Discover how mercy changes everything—how we approach God when we feel unworthy, how we relate to difficult people, and how we function as a church community. As C.S. Lewis wrote, "The Christian does not think God will love us because we are good, but that God will make us good because he loves us."Ready to unplug from the spiritual treadmill? Join us as we learn to receive God's mercy and let it transform us from the inside out. The Pharisee in us says "prove yourself," but the Savior before us says "receive my mercy."

This remarkable limestone residence in Dodge City, Kansas—affectionately known as the "Home of Stone"—stands as one of America's most authentic windows into late 19th century domestic life.Built in 1881, when the American frontier was still taking shape, this architectural gem immediately captivates visitors with its breathtaking handcrafted spiral staircase—an elegant masterpiece of woodworking that serves as the home's stunning centerpiece. As you move through the meticulously preserved rooms, each space reveals intimate details of frontier family life: the formal Victorian parlor with its sumptuous furnishings designed for social gatherings; the spacious, light-filled master bedroom that served as John and Caroline Mueller's private sanctuary; and the practical basement kitchen that kept cooking heat separate from living areas in the days before modern ventilation.What makes the Mueller-Schmidt House truly exceptional is the remarkable preservation of its original elements. Each room stands as a testament to frontier resilience and ambition, with exquisite woodwork and period-appropriate furnishings that tell the story of a successful family establishing permanence in what was once the wild west. Now curated by the Ford County Historical Society and proudly listed on the National Register of Historic Places, this limestone treasure preserves an irreplaceable connection to Dodge City's rich past.

Tell us whatcha' think! Send a text to us, here! Thank you for sharing your thoughts on our podcast. In 2015, the Adolescent Sexuality Conference in Seaside, Oregon was canceled due to public outcry over its content, including discussions on porn and drug use during sex. Recently, similar figures re-emerged at the Joining Our Youth (JOY) Conference held at Oregon State University. This event, focusing on school-based health clinics, aimed to empower youth to access a range of health services, including mental health and gender-affirming care.The JOY Conference, supported by the Oregon School-Based Health Alliance and the Hallie E. Ford Center for Healthy Children and Families, brought together over 200 attendees, including youth leaders, educators, and health practitioners. The conference provided interactive activities and workshops aimed at promoting health services through youth-adult partnerships and included discussions on culturally responsive clinical approaches and policy sustainability.However, the event has been met with criticism. One example involves Shantel Waddell, who discussed extending day programs for community schools. This follows a recent lawsuit where a program she was involved with was accused of mishandling a sexual assault case involving minors. Another presenter, Nicole Mayer, focused on enhancing youth/adult partnerships, emphasizing her diverse identity and commitment to various social issues, which some may see as a push towards activism rather than education.Furthermore, Haley Hedrick from the Doernbecher Gender Clinic discussed supporting gender diverse youth, emphasizing resilience amidst political and cultural challenges. She offered insights into both medical and non-medical pathways for gender affirmation, emphasizing youth-centered decision-making models.Critics of the JOY Conference argue that its strong focus on youth empowerment and engagement could veer into activism, potentially sidelining parental involvement in the developmental and educational processes of their children. The conference literature notably lacked any mention of parental roles, raising concerns about the exclusion of parents from discussions about their children's health and education.This event reflects ongoing tensions between educational initiatives aimed at inclusivity and community responses that demand more traditional approaches to education and parental involvement.Support the showIf you need assistance with a situation in your area, please fill out our free consultation form.DONATE TODAY!www.ParentsRightsInEducation.com
Think the Troubles were only Northern Ireland? Discover America's secret hand in the conflict.The Troubles are often remembered as a conflict confined to Northern Ireland and Britain — but that's a myth. In this episode of History Rage, host Paul Bavill is joined by journalist and Pulitzer Prize finalist Ali Watkins to uncover the overlooked role of Irish America in the conflict. Focusing on radical nationalist movements in Philadelphia, they explore how identity, violence, and diaspora politics shaped the fight far beyond Belfast and Derry.Episode HighlightsThe Philadelphia Five – Meet the five working-class men who became central to a clandestine gun-running operation for the Provisional IRA, challenging assumptions about who becomes a revolutionary.Irish American Identity – Ali reflects on her own family history and how diaspora communities engaged with — and sometimes enabled — the Troubles.Smuggling Guns Across the Atlantic – Discover the rudimentary but effective tactics used to move firearms from Philadelphia to Ireland, often under the noses of customs officials.The FBI Cracks Down – Learn how American law enforcement finally targeted these networks, leading to the collapse of the Philadelphia Five's operations.Legacy & Reflection – How should Irish America remember this hidden history, and what does it reveal about modern nationalism?This conversation challenges the idea that the Troubles were a “local” conflict and reveals the global networks — and moral complexities — that sustained it.
On July 3, 2025, routine radiation checks at the Savannah River Site—a sprawling Cold War-era nuclear facility in South Carolina—revealed something straight out of a sci-fi thriller: a radioactive wasp nest perched beside waste storage tanks, emitting radiation levels ten times higher than federally permitted limits Officials labeled it “legacy contamination,” not an active leak, and swiftly zapped the nest, bagged it as radiological waste—and let everyone know there's no exposure risk Routine monitoring flagged more: four hot nests in total, all within the heavily contained F-Area Tank Farm. Wasps generally don't stray far—so no danger outside the facility. Experts say the nests likely picked up radioactive sediment during cleanup ops—not an imminent health threat, but a striking reminder of lingering Cold War fallout.
