What happens when failure becomes part of your story? This week Pastor Kee continues our Shapes & Sizes series by looking at the life of John Mark through Acts 15:36–41 — a disciple remembered not first for success, but for quitting in the middle of the mission.Through the conflict between Paul and Barnabas, the eventual restoration of John Mark, and the surprising way God continued to use his life, we'll explore how grace shapes people through disappointment, second chances, and slow growth. If you've ever struggled with failure, comparison, insecurity, or wondering whether God can still use your story, this message is for you.

In this episode, we explore ZAFRO's air conditioner lineup, which includes both portable and window units across 12 models. The collection spans cooling capacities from 8,000 to 16,000 BTU (5,000 to 12,000 BTU SACC), designed to cool spaces ranging from 250 to 700 square feet. We discuss key features like smart inverter technology for energy efficiency, dual-hose designs on select portable models for improved performance, and the U-shaped window units that allow windows to close more fully than traditional designs. Several models offer WiFi connectivity for app and voice control, while features like drain-free operation and multi-mode functionality (including cooling, dehumidifying, and eco modes) aim to enhance convenience. With pricing from roughly $270 to $600 and current promotions offering up to 20% off on multi-unit purchases, we examine how these specifications translate to real-world performance and whether the various features justify the investment for different cooling needs.

On this episode of Luxury Outdoor Living Podcast, Mike Farley interviews Scarlett Hanson, owner of Floatee US, during Water Safety Month about Floatee, a France-made anti-drowning T-shirt for children that looks like an anti-UV swim shirt but automatically inflates into a life jacket when submerged, inflating in under three seconds, keeping the wearer on their back with airways out of the water via an asymmetrical design. It won a prestigious design award, has been used by over 50,000 people in Europe, and has generated parent testimonials after real pool incidents. The system uses a dissolving sensor and replaceable gas canister; the inflatable insert can be moved between shirt sizes and bright colors aid visibility. Sizes currently cover 10–25 kg, with 25–40 kg in development, plus adult manual/automatic versions.

In this episode of the Great Lakes Fishing Podcast presented by Fish Hawk Electronics, host Chris Larsen sits down at the Greater Niagara Fishing Expo with Chris Legard from the New York DEC and Captain Rob Westcott of Legacy Sportfishing for an in-depth conversation about the current state—and future—of Lake Ontario salmon fishing. They break down what anglers are seeing on the water right now and how it connects to the science behind the fishery. Topics include the rebound of the alewife population, what recent die-offs really mean, and how bait availability continues to shape salmon growth and catch rates across the lake. Chris Legard explains the ongoing genetic parentage-based tagging program that helps determine how many Chinook salmon are naturally reproduced versus hatchery-stocked fish—and why that information matters when balancing predator and prey populations in Lake Ontario. The discussion also covers how anglers are contributing to this effort through citizen-science sampling programs across the lake. The conversation dives into the growing role of Atlantic salmon, which are native to Lake Ontario and seeing improved returns after changes to stocking strategy and locations. Meanwhile, anglers are also noticing stronger coho salmon fishing, especially in the western basin—and the DEC shares why natural reproduction may be playing a bigger role than many people realize. Chris and Rob also address a question many anglers have been asking: Where are the 30-pound Chinook salmon? Learn how salmon abundance, prey availability, and long-term management decisions influence fish size trends—and why today's fishery still ranks among the strongest in decades. Additional topics include: Chinook salmon catch-rate trends since 2017 How Atlantic salmon stocking changes are improving returns The role of pen-rearing programs in boosting survival Brown trout strain improvements and survival expectations Cormorant control efforts near stocking sites How anglers help shape DEC management decisions through advisory panels Whether you fish the Niagara Bar, the Salmon River, Oak Orchard, or anywhere else on Lake Ontario, this episode offers valuable insight into the science behind the fishery—and what it means for your next season on the water.

Episode OverviewIn this episode of The Articulate Fly, host Marvin Cash sits down with Master Casting Instructor Mac Brown for another installment of Casting Angles — a wide-ranging conversation on the philosophy of continuous improvement in fly fishing and fly casting. Recorded just before the Lancaster Fly Fishing Show, the episode centers on one of the most practical yet underappreciated principles in skill development: approaching your craft with a beginner's mind, no matter how many years you've been on the water. Mac draws on feedback from students at recent west coast events — including anglers with 30 to 40 years of experience who received their first structured casting instruction — to illustrate how long-held assumptions can silently ceiling growth. The conversation touches on Mac's "four stages of learning" framework, the infinite circle of knowledge and the parallels between fly casting mastery and elite performance in any discipline. Practical spring fishing news also surfaces in the second half: listeners get actionable intel on early-season Quill Gordon dry fly hatches on wild Appalachian freestone streams, the ideal nymph sizing window as hatches begin (sizes 12–16) and emerging activity of little black stones and blue winged olives on Tennessee tailwaters. Mac and Marvin also preview their respective Lancaster show appearances and detail upcoming guide schools and casting classes at macbrownflyfish.com for anglers planning their spring season.Key TakeawaysHow adopting a beginner's mindset — staying open to new information regardless of experience level — is the single most reliable driver of improvement in fly casting and fishing.Why intermediate anglers stagnate: the false belief that years of time on the water equates to skill development, which shuts down active learning before it can happen.How Mac's four stages of learning framework maps the path from novice to expert, and why most anglers get stuck at stage two.When Quill Gordon dry fly hatches arrive on wild Appalachian freestone streams, they represent one of the season's best dry fly windows because the adult floats for 15–20 minutes while hardening its wings.Why early-season nymphs (sizes 12–14) are as large as they'll be all year, making this the optimal window to fish bigger nymph patterns before successive hatches progressively reduce insect size.How structured instruction — rather than YouTube, books or show demos alone — accelerates skill acquisition in ways self-directed learning rarely can.Techniques & Gear CoveredThe episode is primarily instructional and conceptual rather than gear-heavy, but several practical fishing frameworks emerge. Mac references his own book Casting Angles — a fly casting handbook endorsed by the ACA and FFI — as the source material for the four stages of learning discussion, and directs listeners to the article on his website for a deeper read. The conversation touches on the comparative limitations of self-directed learning via YouTube and books versus structured in-person instruction, particularly for developing proper casting mechanics. On the dry fly fishing side, Mac recommends dry fly presentations targeting Quill Gordons on freestone streams in size 12, with the extended float window (15–20 minutes) making these hatches unusually productive for surface takes. Marvin notes that pairing size 14 and 16 nymphs during this same early-season window takes advantage of the year's largest nymph profiles before they diminish through the season. Mac also promotes two-day casting schools through macbrownflyfish.com as the highest-value instructional investment for anglers who want to advance their skills heading into spring.Locations & SpeciesThe episode references wild freestone streams in the Western North Carolina / Great Smoky Mountains region — Mac's home water around Bryson City — as the primary context for the early Quill Gordon hatch discussion, with these streams producing active trout as water temperatures begin to rise. Tennessee tailwaters are also noted as waters where little black stoneflies and blue winged olives are already appearing, signaling the beginning of productive surface-feeding windows. The target species throughout is wild trout, with Mac's commentary on Quill Gordon hatches specifically framed around waking large fish that have been dormant through winter. The seasonal framing is early spring, a transition period characterized by warming daytime temperatures, emerging hatches and increasingly active trout — one of the most productive dry fly windows of the year in the Southern Appalachians.FAQ / Key Questions AnsweredHow does a beginner's mindset improve fly casting and fishing skills?Beginners enter instruction with no preconceptions to dismantle, which makes them highly receptive to new technique and feedback. Mac argues that anglers who believe they are already proficient — after years of fishing without formal instruction — unknowingly stop absorbing new information, effectively stalling their development at the intermediate stage.What are the four stages of learning in fly casting?Mac's framework progresses from stage one (open absorption of fundamentals) through stage two (recognizing a problem exists but not knowing how to fix it — where most intermediate anglers stall) to stages three and four, where skills become internalized and self-correcting. He recommends reading the full article on his website for a detailed breakdown of each stage.When is the Quill Gordon hatch and why is it such a good dry fly opportunity?The Quill Gordon is an early-season mayfly that emerges on wild Appalachian freestone streams, typically before most other major hatches of the year. The adults float on the surface for 15–20 minutes while hardening their wings — an unusually long window that gives trout ample time to key on them and gives anglers sustained dry fly fishing action. Size 12 patterns are appropriate at peak emergence.Why should anglers fish larger nymph patterns in early spring?Nymph size follows a seasonal arc: early in the year, aquatic insects are at or near maximum size before the first hatches reduce their populations and successive generations emerge progressively smaller. Sizes 14 and 16 are particularly effective in this early window, as they match the naturals more accurately than the smaller patterns that will dominate later in the season.What does Mac Brown recommend for anglers who want to improve most efficiently?Mac consistently points to in-person structured instruction — particularly his two-day casting school — as the highest-leverage investment for improvement. He contrasts this with YouTube and book-based learning, which lack the real-time feedback loop required to correct ingrained errors and build proper mechanics into muscle memory.Related ContentS7, Ep 16 - Simplifying Complexity: Effective Teaching Strategies in Fly Fishing with Mac BrownS7, Ep 20 - Practice Makes Perfect: Mac Brown on Mastering Casting TechniquesS7, Ep 28 - Warming Waters and Active Fish: A Spring Fishing Update with Mac BrownS6, Ep 10 - Casting Angles with Mac BrownS6, Ep 141 - Mastering Cold Weather Fly Fishing with Mac BrownConnect with Our GuestFollow Mac on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.Follow the ShowFollow The Articulate Fly on Facebook, Instagram,

Why does a “large” fit like a medium… unless it fits like a tent? On this episode of That Don't Sound Right, hosts Peter and Cecil tackle the universal frustration of clothing sizes — from wildly inconsistent sizing charts to the gamble of buying gifts online and the awkward return-counter two-step. Guest Emily joins the conversation with smart thrifting strategies and insider tips for finding hidden gems without losing your mind in the fitting room. Along the way, the guys swap stories about off-sized shirts, shrinking cotton disasters, vintage sizing mysteries, and the subtle emotional rollercoaster of trying something on that should fit… but doesn't. Then they brainstorm the app we all wish existed — one that matches your exact measurements to every brand's sizing chart so you never have to guess again. It's a light, candid conversation about fitting in (literally), thrift-store treasure hunts, online shopping regrets, and keeping the kind of back-and-forth alive that doesn't require Googling the answer. If you've ever said, “That don't sound right,” while staring at a tag in disbelief — this one's for you.

Continuing on in this new Season 11, I FINALLY give you an episode(s) that I have discussed doing for several years. I offer to you, a two-part exploration of D*ck Sizes around the globe and the issues and problems that arise because of expectations and societal pressures. There will be four distinct areas discussed. Two in this first episode of the series and two in the last. Additionally, at the conclusion of the two parts, I will give a breakdown of 42 countries that have been studied regarding this subject and I will list all 42 from the largest to the smallest dicks, including measurements. Where will YOUR Country fall on the list? Help me reach 3000 subscribers on An Older Gay Guy Show YouTube Channel ! Once I reach 3000, I will post a video showing my 52 pound weight loss and show off the muscles that I have once again started to have show. I worked hard to achieve this from age 65 until now (soon to be 68), and I will proudly show you what I now look like. I will also show you the new gym set-up here in the basement of our new house.
