In today's Workday Playdate Snack, we're tackling the hybrid work headache—and no, we're not talking about the flickering office lights or the ancient coffee machine no one remembers how to clean. We're talking about the emotional fog that creeps in when your team is half-on-Zoom, half-in-person, and 100% disconnected. The Problem: You've asked your team to return to the office a few days a week. Some show up with smiles. Others show up with...resentment. And some just show up for the snacks. Hybrid work isn't just a scheduling issue—it's a culture shift. And if you're the one coordinating who's in, who's out, and whether “Taco Tuesday” counts as strategy… we see you. Why It Matters: According to Gallup, only 28% of employees feel connected in hybrid environments. Connection isn't a luxury—it's the glue. Without it, collaboration and morale fall flat. The Improv Hack to Try: The Wrong Name Game In your next meeting, have everyone make up a goofy name and fake job title. “Hi, I'm Tater McSnazzle, Chief Glitter Strategist.” “I'm Rufus Bucket, Senior Cloud Fluffer.” Yes, it's weird. But it works. Play cuts through awkwardness and builds connection fast—whether you're face-to-face or floating in the Zoomverse. Why it works: Breaks the ice in a low-stakes, high-fun way Sparks laughter and lowers tension Creates a sense of shared experience—even virtually Coming up Wednesday: Ready to go deeper?

Imagine waking up one day and realizing the world changed, but you didn't. That's what it's like for many organizations today, stuck on a decades-long train ride, speeding ahead without ever looking out the window. The future of work isn't coming. It's already here, and most companies are still running on definitions of “work,” “manager,” and “employee” that feel more like satire than strategy. Work sucks for too many people, and it doesn't have to. In today's Leadership Spark, we break down the five major trends transforming work as we know it: evolving behaviors, shifting demographics, globalization, mobility, and accelerating tech. As we step into the future of work, organizations must get off the train, look up, and start designing work that actually works for humans. ________________ This episode is sponsored by Workhuman: Don't you hate how every HR company out there says they are powered by AI?

On today's show, we discuss the growing backlash surrounding The View co-host Whoopi Goldberg after she made controversial comments comparing the treatment of minority groups in the United States to the situation in Iran. During a heated panel discussion, Goldberg drew parallels between systemic inequality and discrimination faced by marginalized communities in America and the oppressive conditions experienced by citizens—especially women and minorities—under Iran's authoritarian regime.Her remarks sparked immediate criticism online, with many accusing her of making an inappropriate and inaccurate comparison. Critics argue that while America certainly faces challenges related to racial and social justice, equating it with a theocratic regime known for its human rights abuses is irresponsible and dismissive of the realities in Iran. Supporters, however, say Goldberg was attempting to shine a light on the ongoing struggles of marginalized groups in the U.S. and provoke deeper conversation about civil liberties and accountability.We break down the full context of her statement, how her co-hosts responded, the public reaction, and what this controversy reveals about the broader discourse on race, freedom, and oppression both at home and abroad. Freedom Marketplace: https://freedommarketplace.net The Stack: https://www.toddhuffshow.com/stack-of-stuff Email: todd@toddhuffshow.comPhone: 317.210.2830Follow us on…Instagram: @toddhuffshowFacebook: The Todd Huff ShowTwitter: @toddhuffshowLinkedIn: The Todd Huff ShowTikTok: @toddhuffshowSupport Our Partners:https://www.toddhuffshow.com/partners Links:https://www.mypillow.com/todd Promo Code: TODDhttps://mystore.com/toddhttps://soltea.com - Promo Code TODD for $29.95 off your first orderEaston University - https://www.eastonuniversity.comRed, White, & Brand – Text TODD at 317-210-2830 for a 10% discount.

Podcast 290 – Leadership Perimeter Sparks a Journey to Dunwoody City Hall – Catherine Lautenbacher   Catherine Lautenbacher never saw herself running for office. But after years of leading the Leadership Perimeter program, she found herself pulled into public service. Now representing District 1 on Dunwoody City Council, Catherine focuses on community safety, connectivity, and building up future leaders.   She shares what she has experienced over the last four years and reflects on the moments that stood out during her time on the council. Public safety is at the top of that list. Catherine explains how Dunwoody police are using drones to respond more quickly and assess situations from above before officers even arrive. The city has also built a high-tech command center with live video feeds that help manage emergencies, traffic, and major events like the Fourth of July parade. It's about being proactive, not just reactive, and she's proud to see Dunwoody leading the way.   She also continues to mentor the next generation through Leadership Perimeter and remains a strong advocate for making Dunwoody more walkable, one sidewalk at a time.   https://whatsupdunwoody.com/podcast-290-leadership-perimeter-sparks-a-journey-to-dunwoody-city-hall-catherine-lautenbacher/   What's Up Dunwoody Links:

Patrick Bet-David, Tom Ellsworth & Vincent Oshana are joined by Representative Nancy Mace break down the explosive showdown between Tucker Carlson and Senator Ted Cruz over U.S. policy on Iran, Israel's latest military movement targeting Iran's Fordow nuclear site and what it means for the region, and Congresswoman Ilhan Omar stirs major backlash over her controversial anti-American comments.------

As co-hosts on The View suggest life in the U.S. may be worse than in Iran, a fiery broadcast pushes back hard—detailing the brutal repression under Iran's regime and highlighting the absurdity of such comparisons. The segment contrasts real-world oppression in Iran—where citizens are executed for dissent and the internet is shut down to hide mass killings—with the performative politics of U.S. Democrats seeking staged arrests to boost campaign optics. Tara and Lee tear into the chaos in cities like Portland, where Antifa radicals attack ICE facilities unchecked, and expose the dangerous partnership between the Iranian regime, the American Left, and even media figures like Tucker Carlson—who, shockingly, was unaware that multiple Iranian assassins were arrested for plotting to kill Trump on U.S. soil. The hosts argue this isn't about Israel—it's about Iran targeting American leaders, and Democrats turning a blind eye. With Trump shifting from economic pressure to potentially decisive military action, the conversation gets to the heart of what's at stake: national security, free speech, and the alarming ignorance of key U.S. leaders on the Iran threat.

USA Today bestselling author Serena Burdick is living proof that creative success doesn't follow a straight line. In this deeply personal and inspiring episode, Serena shares how her journey from aspiring actor to celebrated novelist came with plenty of unexpected twists—including returning to waiting tables in her 40s while raising kids and chasing her dream. With honesty and humor, she opens up about the realities of artistic life, the power of resilience, and the value of believing in your own story—especially when others don't see it yet. We dive into Serena's new book, A Promise to Arlette, and the fascinating real-life inspiration behind it—her grandmother's connection to avant-garde photographer Man Ray and a long-lost nude photograph that sparked a fictional journey through postwar France and conservative 1950s America. Serena talks about balancing fiction with history, channeling her theatrical background into richly drawn characters, and navigating the emotional tightrope of writing stories that sometimes go to very dark places. This is a must-listen for anyone who's ever wanted to rewrite their own story. Connect with Serena Burdick:

In today's Workday Playdate Snack, we're talking about the kind of conflict resolution that doesn't involve a six-part text thread or passive-aggressive dishwasher loading. We're diving into how playfulness—yes, even mid-fight—can be your secret weapon for stronger, happier relationships. Whether it's your partner, roommate, or that one family member who treats the group chat like a TED Talk… this snack is for you. The Problem: You're crushing deadlines at work—but stuck in a weird silence at home. Maybe it was about socks. Or the dishes. Or nothing at all. And now you're trying to lead a team while low-key simmering with resentment. Spoiler: unresolved tension doesn't stay home. It follows you to Zoom. Why It Matters: Research shows emotional residue from personal relationships impacts performance, presence, and psychological safety at work. You can't be fully present in the boardroom if you're still replaying last night's kitchen argument. The Improv Hack to Try: The Silent Scene Yes, it's as ridiculous—and effective—as it sounds.  Next time things get tense with your partner, skip the serious convo and act out a mundane task (like folding laundry) with exaggerated mime and facial expressions. No words. Just play. Why it works: Interrupts the fight-or-flight cycle Sparks laughter and connection Rebuilds rhythm and sync—without a 45-minute processing session It's improv for intimacy. Lucille Ball meets couple's therapy. Coming up Wednesday: Ready to take this playful practice even deeper?

LA band Sparks always delights us with their sophisticated-yet-playful songwriting. The duo of brothers Ron and Russell Mael have been at it since the early 1970s and they just dropped their 28th studio album, MAD!. “Running Up A Tab At The Hotel For The Fab” is one of the typically witty offerings from that album, and you can download it for free right now. Also be sure to mark your calendar for their LA show at the Greek on Tuesday, Sept. 30.

It's Monday, June 16th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Pakistani Christian acquitted of blasphemy against Islam charge Last Thursday, a Pakistani judge acquitted a 28-year-old Christian named Farhan Masih of blasphemy against Islam and terrorism charges after the prosecution failed to prove its case against him, reports Morningstar News. Masih had developed a mental illness due to excessive use of synthetic drugs and was entrapped in the false accusation by the complainant. According to Open Doors, Pakistan is the eighth most difficult country worldwide in which to live for Christians. Dear God, we thank you for enabling Farhan Masih, this Pakistani Christian, to be acquitted. Amen. Israel attacks Iran over atomic weapon; Iran retaliates Israel launched blistering attacks on the heart of Iran's nuclear and military structure Friday, deploying warplanes and drones previously smuggled into the country to assault key facilities and kill top generals and scientists, reports the Associated Press. Israeli Prime Minister Benajmin Netanyahu explained. NETANYAHU: “Moments ago, Israel launched Operation Rising Lion, a targeted military operation to roll back the Iranian threat to Israel's very survival. This operation will continue for as many days as it takes to remove this threat. For decades, the tyrants of Tehran have brazenly, openly called for Israel's destruction. They backed up their genocidal rhetoric with a program to develop nuclear weapons. “In recent years, Iran has produced enough highly enriched uranium for nine atom bombs – nine!  In recent months, Iran has taken steps that it has never taken before, steps to weaponize this enriched uranium. If not stopped, Iran could produce a nuclear weapon in a very short time. It could be a year. It could be within a few months.” Iran retaliated by firing waves of ballistic missiles at Israel, where explosions flared in the skies over Jerusalem and Tel Aviv and shook the buildings below. The Israeli military urged civilians to head to shelter, as missiles damaged homes and killed two people. U.S. Senate considers defunding Planned Parenthood In the midst of the U.S. Senate's ongoing debate about the budget, they are determining whether to defund Planned Parenthood, as President Trump has requested, reports Liberty Counsel Action. The situation is fluid and can change at any moment because of the razor-thin margin of votes.  Only  two weeks remain to get the budget on President Trump's desk.  Whether or not your two U.S. Senators are Republicans or Democrats, please call them at 202-224-3121 – any time of the day or night -- and urge them to DEFUND Planned Parenthood. Democratic Minnesota Rep. killed and Minnesota Senator injured in targeted attack A Minnesota Democratic lawmaker and her husband were shot and killed in their home early Saturday by someone posing as a police officer and a second Democratic lawmaker and his wife were wounded in what some have described as  “targeted political violence,” reports the Associated Press. Former Democratic House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her spouse were killed in their Brooklyn Park home. The other lawmaker, Democratic State Senator John Hoffman, and his wife, were shot multiple times in Champlin, a suburb of Minneapolis. Bob Jacobson, Minnesota Commissioner of Public Safety, spoke at a press conference. JACOBSON: “This is a dark day today for Minnesota and for democracy, but we will not allow fear or violence to define who we are or how we move forward.” The gunman has been identified as Vance Luther Boelter, whom Democratic Minnesota Governor Tim Walz had previously appointed to the Governor's Workforce Development Council. Christian singer Michael Tait confesses homosexual conduct & drug abuse Last Tuesday, Michael Tait, the former lead singer of the Christian rock band Newsboys and a member of the Grammy-winning group DC Talk, publicly confessed to a history of "reckless and destructive behavior," including drug and alcohol abuse and unwanted sexual conduct involving men, reports The Christian Post. In a written statement on Instagram, the 59-year-old singer acknowledged that the reports  are “sadly, largely true." He wrote, "For some two decades, I used and abused cocaine, consumed far too much alcohol, and, at times, touched men in an unwanted sensual way. I am ashamed of my life choices and actions, and make no excuses for them. I will simply call it what God calls it — sin. “I was violating everything I was raised to believe by my God-fearing Dad and Mom, about walking with Jesus and was grieving the very God I loved and sang about for most of my life. By His grace, I can say that for the past six months, I have lived a singular life—one of utter brokenness and total dependence on a loving and merciful God." Tait's confession follows an in-depth investigative report published on June 3rd by The Roys Report documenting that three men accused him of sexual assault during separate incidents dating back to 2004. Tait quoted Psalm 51, King David's famous prayer of repentance: "Blot out my transgressions … create in me a new heart, O God." God-haters upset with 10 Commandments displayed in Arkansas schools A group of God-hating organizations has filed a lawsuit against a recently passed law in Arkansas that requires public schools to display the Ten Commandments on the wall in a 16-inch by 20-inch poster with a  font size that makes it easily readable, reports The Christian Post. Americans United for Separation of Church and State, the American Civil Liberties Union, and the Freedom From Religion Foundation filed a complaint on Wednesday on behalf of a religiously diverse group of parents. At issue is Act 573, a measure signed into law by Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders in April and is scheduled to take effect in August. The lawsuit argues that "Act 573 is not neutral with respect to religion." Republican State Senator Jim Dotson, one of the bill's primary sponsors, argued in March that the Decalogue displays were not unconstitutional. He said, "From the state to the federal level all throughout our history, it is an historical reference point or historical document that has basic things like you shall not kill, steal, commit adultery -- those basic foundations of life that are good for everybody to keep front of mind so that we are hopefully living good lives," reports KATV. After God revealed the Ten Commandments to Moses on Mt. Sinai, Exodus 20:20 records Moses telling the Jews, “Do not be afraid. God has come to test you, so that the fear of God will be with you to keep you from sinning.” Worldview listeners in South Dakota, Colorado, and Indiana share their hearts I invited Worldview listeners to share what they enjoy about the newscast in 2-6 sentences by email.  You can share your thoughts -- along with your full name, city and state -- and send it to adam@TheWorldview.com Jason Bollwerk in Rapid City, South Dakota wrote, “I am a homeschooled sophomore in high school, and I listen daily to The Worldview for school. My reason for listening is not only to hear what is happening in the world, but I love hearing about all the good things that God is doing out there. Most media outlets show the dark side of what's going on. But The Worldview really shows what God's doing. Tally ho and pip pip.” Cheryl Ball in Indianapolis, Indiana wrote, “I've been reading the transcript of your newscast every morning since the presidential debates last year. I don't watch the news or read other news. So, this is basically my news input and I'm thankful for it.” And Dennis and Alyssa Guse in Castle Rock, Colorado, said, “Thank you for the faithful work you and The Worldview in 5 Minutes team do for the glory of God!  We are blessed to hear relevant news stories and encouraging Scriptures every day.  Keep up the great work for the Kingdom!”  Dennis asked if I could lead an occasional short prayer for one of the news items. I  called him to say that that was a great idea and I would take him up on the suggestion. 17 Worldview listeners gave $6,821 to fund our annual budget And finally, toward our midpoint goal of $61,750 to fund half of The Worldview newscast's annual budget by this past weekend, 17  listeners stepped up to the plate by 1:00pm Central on Saturday. We were only 3 donors short of our 20-donor goal. Our thanks to Augustine in Auburn, California who gave $25 as well as Elisabeth in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada and Karen in Waterford, Wisconsin --  both of whom gave $50, and Daniel in Mayflower, Arkansas who pledged $8 per month for 12 months for a gift of $96. We're grateful to God for Leasa in Simpsonville, South Carolina, George in Edinburgh, Indiana, and Woody in Sparks, Nevada – each of whom gave $100 as well as Laura in Millstadt, Illinois and Kerry and Rosana in San Antonio, Texas – both of whom gave $200. And we were touched by the generosity of Derrick in Evans, Georgia who gave $250, Justin and Oliver in Grover Beach, California who pledged $25/month for 12 months for a gift of $300, Eric in Warren, Minnesota who also pledged $25 per month for 12 months for a gift of $300, Matt, Amanda, Elijah, Malachi, and Samuel in Greencastle, Indiana who gave $450, Shy in Ingalls, Indiana who pledged $50 per month for 12 months for a total gift of $600, Aaron in Fort Bragg, North Carolina who gave $1,000, Katie in Hutchinson, Kansas who gave $1,000, and Scooter in Naples, Florida who will match those last two $1,000 donations with another $2,000 gift of his own. Those 17 Worldview listeners gave a total of $6,821. Ready for our new grand total? Drum roll please.  (Drum roll sound effect) $38,892.20 (People clapping and cheering sound effect)   That means we fell $22,857.80 short of our $61,750 mid-point goal to stay on the air and fund our 6-member Worldview newscast team for another fiscal year. Toward this Friday, June 20th's goal of $92,625, we need to raise $53,732.80. Remember, if you are one of the 4 final people who give a one-time gift of $1,000, Scooter in Naples, Florida will match you with a corresponding $1,000 gift.  Now, if that happens today, Monday, June 16th we will have raised an additional $8,000. In order to raise the remaining amount, I need to find 38 Worldview listeners who will pledge $50/month for 12 months for a gift of $600. And another 76 listeners to pledge $25/month for 12 months for a gift of $300. Has God placed it on your heart to be one of the Christian patriots to fund this unparalleled newscast which unashamedly cites relevant Scripture, includes compelling soundbites, and practical action steps to speak out for Biblical principles? Please, we need your help right now!  Go to TheWorldview.com and click on Give on the top right.   Click on the button that indicates a recurring monthly donation if that's your wish. I'll be honest. In my flesh, I'm getting very nervous indeed!  But, in my spirit, I confidently trust that God will prompt the right people to give generously to cover our annual budget.

In this gripping segment, the hosts discuss the miraculous survival of Vishwaskumar Ramesh—the lone survivor of a tragic Air India crash that killed 240 others. The story triggers a wider conversation about aviation safety, fear of flying, and practical strategies for surviving a crash, including ideal seating and the potential value of parachutes. The segment then shifts to explosive political commentary, alleging ulterior motives behind U.S. aid efforts in Gaza, questioning the Democrat party's ties to Iran and China, and asserting that foreign influence is driving unrest in places like California and on U.S. college campuses. From crash survival to geopolitical warfare, this segment blends human resilience with a controversial view of global politics.

“New Chest Tattoo!” BTS Jungkook's Appearance Sparks Major Reactions.

The Money Wise guys kick this week's episode off with another market review. Last week the markets pulled back, with the Dow down 1.3%, the S&P 500 off by 0.4%, and the NASDAQ falling 0.6%. Despite encouraging inflation data, specifically favorable CPI and PPI readings, geopolitical tension in the Middle East quickly overshadowed the good news. Thursday night's developments between Israel and Iran led to Friday's market drop, with investors hesitant to hold positions over the weekend. The guys discuss how these types of events often spark short-term volatility, not long-term shifts, and share insight into recent rebalancing decisions involving oil and gas positions. Later in the show they delve into insurance-based investment products, often favored by legacy firms, but not always in clients' best interest. Insurance-Based Investments Insurance-based investments, like variable annuities and equity-indexed products, are often pitched as safe, reliable options, especially by legacy firms. But behind the promises can lie high fees, long lock-up periods, and limited transparency. As discussed in this week's episode, these products may serve the salesperson more than the investor, offering hefty commissions without always aligning with a client's financial goals. It's essential to look beyond the sales pitch and evaluate whether these tools truly support your long-term strategy. In the second hour, the Money Wise guys explore RIA vs. Broker. You don't want to miss the details! Tune in for the full discussion on your favorite podcast provider or at davidsoncap.com, where you can also learn more about the Money Wise guys or take advantage of a portfolio review and analysis with Davidson Capital Management.

Tara dives deep into Donald Trump's surprising and chaotic immigration comments—initially suggesting long-term illegal immigrants like hotel and farm workers should be allowed to stay, only to reverse himself hours later after massive backlash. Tara slams the move as rewarding lawbreaking and playing into the left's violent tactics, comparing Trump's statements to Biden's open-border policies. She calls out corporate abuse of illegal labor for profit and exposes how the immigration issue is tied to tax fraud and wage suppression. With sharp criticism, historical context, and JD Vance's viral anecdote from Joe Rogan, Tara warns conservatives: pressure works, and without it, amnesty could return.

The Minnesota Lynx suffered their first loss of the season, struggling with defensive lapses and a lack of depth against a red-hot Seattle Storm team.

California Governor Gavin Newsom is under fire after fact-checking a viral protest video that turned out to be from 2020 — not the recent unrest in Los Angeles. While Newsom was technically correct, critics say he missed the bigger picture: similar chaos is happening now. Was this a PR misstep or a necessary correction? We break down the controversy, the backlash, and what it means for Newsom's leadership.

Fresno Councilmember Miguel Arias ignited controversy after publicly warning of an alleged ICE raid at the Cherry Avenue Auction, a popular local marketplace. His statement, caused widespread alarm among immigrant communities and vendors. However, both city officials and auction management quickly denied any knowledge of such an operation.

This week on The Real Minishow, Sam and Stormy are adjusting to their new normals—Sam has a job she loves, and Stormy is finally free from nightly homework. Meanwhile, in Episode Four of The Haunting of Bly Manor: In a series of flashbacks, we learn that Dani was once engaged to her childhood friend, Edmund. During a tense dinner, Edmund realizes Dani doesn't want to marry him. As he storms out of the car in anger, he's tragically hit and killed by a truck. A traumatized Dani sees Edmund's ghost for the first time at the hospital. Without telling anyone, she plans to leave the country. Before she departs, Edmund's mother gives her his glasses. Back at Bly Manor, Dani joins the staff around a bonfire following Owen's mother's funeral. Jamie introduces a tradition called “throwing bones into the fire” in remembrance of the dead, but Dani chooses not to participate. Sparks begin to fly between Dani and Jamie. That night, Dani wakes up drunk and disoriented. Meanwhile, Flora notices a faceless doll in her dollhouse and, with Miles, prevents Dani from seeing a mysterious white-clad spirit wandering the manor. After putting the children to bed, Dani finally burns Edmund's glasses. They also pick their next review: the new Fear Street movie on Netflix.

A deep dive into the upcoming "No Kings" protest in Spartanburg reveals what the host calls a deceptive grassroots image masking deeper ties to the Upstate South Carolina Democratic Socialists of America—and possibly beyond. With fiery rhetoric, the segment connects the event to a broader narrative of socialist infiltration, Democrat collaboration, and cartel-linked voter manipulation. From a controversial Instagram photo with Rep. Jim Clyburn to allegations of illegal immigrant-driven political schemes, the commentary builds to a national-level accusation: that recent cartel money laundering raids in L.A. struck the heart of a shadow operation funding Democrat campaigns. A hard-hitting exposé on political theater, media silence, and what the host warns could be the makings of a socialist dictatorship.
