This week on the Sumud Podcast, we're joined by Mussab Ali - a cancer survivor, civil rights advocate, and one of the youngest Muslim elected officials in U.S. history. Born in Pakistan and raised in Jersey City, Mussab's story is one of grit, public service, and fearless truth-telling. At just 20 years old, Mussab became the youngest-ever elected official in Jersey City, eventually rising to president of the Board of Education. Where he advocated for clean water access, increased teacher pay, and halal food and Eid holidays for Muslim students. While studying at Harvard Law, Mussab battled cancer, completed chemotherapy, and still graduated while serving his community. Now, he's running for mayor of Jersey City - not just to lead, but to represent. In a political moment where speaking up for Palestine is often seen as a career-ender, Mussab has done the opposite: calling out injustice, demanding a ceasefire, and getting thrown out of city hall for refusing to stay silent.
In this timely episode of CMDA Matters, Dr. Allan Josephson shares his compelling journey of standing firm in both science and faith. As a distinguished child and adolescent psychiatrist, Dr. Josephson courageously spoke out on the treatment of gender dysphoria, emphasizing evidence-based care rooted in compassion. His truth-telling led to professional backlash, including harassment and wrongful termination. But his stand for academic freedom and patient advocacy resulted in a legal victory and a powerful reminder of the cost – and the calling – of conviction. Join us for an essential conversation about faith, freedom, and advocating for vulnerable patients, especially children, in a challenging cultural climate.
This week on the Sumud Podcast, we're joined by Lebanese-American baker, mother, and outspoken advocate Connie Kazan. Known for her viral desserts, unforgettable appearance on The Great Chocolate Showdown, and unfiltered voice for justice. A mother of four, social media personality, and outspoken advocate for Palestinian and Arab communities, Connie brings fierce love, deep-rooted cultural pride, and relentless compassion to everything she touches, from cake decorating to calling out injustice on a global scale. In this raw conversation, Connie takes us on a journey through her life: from growing up in Dearborn to becoming a prominent voice for Arab and Muslim women. She opens up about the challenges of being a hijabi woman in the public eye, navigating racism and cultural erasure in both media and everyday life, and the emotional weight of watching her people suffer. Connie also shares powerful reflections on her time in Egypt, where she worked directly with displaced Gazan families, offering aid, empathy, and unwavering solidarity in these difficult times.

[WEEKEND RECAP 05-18-25] I'm shocked that people are considered heroic for stating the facts.Fact. The education system sucks and should be outlawed or at least destroyed. It produces know-nothing drones.These people are then fed lies by the media, and they are trained to accept lies as truths.So when somebody speaks truth, the minions don't recognize it. They can't even critically think in the simplest of things.It is not brave to say:The 2020 election was stolenClimate change is a farceJ6 was orchestrated by Democrats to cover the theft of the 2020 electionBiden was an idiotDemocrats are evilLeftist women are mostly skanksLeftist men don't exist; they only have eunuchs.

What happens when one of media's most outspoken voices sits down with the writers behind "Try That in a Small Town"? A raw, unfiltered conversation that cuts through the noise of today's cultural battles.Jason Whitlock brings his signature fearlessness to the podcast, sharing personal stories about growing up in Indianapolis where his father owned several bars in working-class Black neighborhoods. These formative experiences shaped his perspective on community, faith, and the shared values that transcend racial divides. With candid humor and piercing insight, Whitlock challenges the hosts and listeners alike to consider how today's cultural climate has created unexpected shifts in American music.The discussion takes a fascinating turn as Whitlock explains his journey into country music after moving to Nashville in 2020. Having grown up primarily listening to R&B and rap, he found himself drawn to the authentic storytelling and emotional depth of artists like Morgan Wallen and Aaron Lewis. This leads to a powerful observation about how great art emerges from struggle, and how today's country music gives voice to Americans who feel silenced or marginalized by mainstream culture.Throughout the episode, the conversation weaves between music, faith, politics, and personal responsibility. Whitlock doesn't shy away from controversial topics, challenging conventional wisdom about race relations, gender roles, and the importance of Biblical values in modern society. His perspective on the courage required to stand apart from the crowd resonates deeply with the songwriters, who share their own experiences of creating music that pushes against cultural expectations.Whether you're passionate about music, cultural commentary, or just appreciate authentic conversation that doesn't follow predictable scripts, this episode offers refreshing honesty and thought-provoking insights.

Send us a textIn this episode, we explore the multifaceted nature of courage and its transformative power in our lives. Through powerful stories and important insights, we examine how courage manifests not just in grand gestures, but in the everyday choices that ultimately shape who we become.The episode begins by challenging listeners to consider the fears that often hold us back—fear of uncertainty, judgment, failure, and even our own potential. These fears can keep us silent and immobilized, preventing us from finding our authentic voice and creating meaningful change.Through four real stories, the episode illustrates different dimensions of courage:Speaking Truth to Power: Oliver Wendell Holmes Sr.'s decades-long battle against the medical establishment in the 1800s demonstrates the courage to stand by one's convictions, even when facing ridicule and rejection. His persistence in advocating for hand washing and sterilization eventually saved countless mothers. Facing Adversity: A candid conversation with a firefighter reveals the courage required to confront mental health challenges in a profession that often discourages emotional vulnerability. His story illustrates how acknowledging personal struggles and seeking help during difficult times can be one of the most courageous acts.Reimagining Possibilities: Andrea Proske's extraordinary journey from hotel manager at age 27 to Olympic gold medalist in rowing at 35 exemplifies the courage to reimagine what's possible for our lives, regardless of our starting point. Everyday Courage: We're reminded that courage often happens in quiet moments when no one is watching—when we choose self-compassion over self-criticism, set boundaries that honor our wellbeing, or take the first small step toward meaningful change.Courage isn't the absence of fear—it's taking meaningful action despite that fear. It happens in those pivotal moments when we choose alignment with our deepest values over comfort, prioritize truth over acceptance, and dare to reimagine what's possible.Episode Credits:Music from the 10000 Maniacs and the brilliant Natalie Merchant can be found hereNatalie Merchat's WebsiteMusical backdrop from fireman story from popular TV series White Lotus and it can here Oliver Wendall Holmes Sr. info can be found hereYou can find out information about the writer Jack Kerouac here and all his booksOlympic gold medal commentary for 2020 Tokyo Olympics hereYou can also connect with the inspiring Andrea Proske and find her website here.LinkedIn Instagram Twitter 'X' Connect with Andy VasilyLinkedIn TwitterDisclaimer for this Podcast- A note from the heart: This podcast was created with one mission—to illuminate paths toward better mental, emotional, and social well-being.

SEND ME A TEXT MESSAGE NOWThe digital silencing has begun. My podcast has been officially labeled a "cybersecurity threat" by Facebook, with posts being systematically removed and listeners blocked from messaging me. Why? For speaking critically about the current administration and its attacks on free speech. This isn't just happening to me. We're witnessing an unprecedented campaign against dissenting voices across America—from major institutions like NPR and Voice of America down to independent creators who dare to speak against power. After 16 months and 98 episodes reaching listeners in all 50 states and 46 countries, I find myself suddenly treated as a danger that must be contained rather than a voice exercising constitutional rights.The timing couldn't be more significant. As I approach my 100th episode—a milestone few podcasts ever reach—this censorship campaign threatens to undermine everything I've built. Despite growing to over 600 listeners, the challenges of audience engagement in today's fractured media landscape remain immense. Without your direct support through emails, messages, and engagement, potential sponsors and interview guests see only silence, making it increasingly difficult to sustain this platform for truth-telling.I refuse to be silenced. I'm creating new communication channels outside Facebook's reach, starting with a dedicated email (resistdonaldnow@gmail.com) and plans for an independent website. But I need your help. This isn't just about saving one podcast—it's about standing against the growing tide of censorship threatening to wash away our most fundamental freedoms. Your voice matters now more than ever. Contact me, share your thoughts, and join the resistance against those who would gladly see critical voices disappear from the public square.AWorldGoneMadPodcast@gmail.com
Fired for Faithfulness: Dr. Russell Fuller Exposes the Woke Takeover of Southern SeminaryEPISODE DESCRIPTION Dr. Russell Fuller spent over two decades faithfully training pastors in Hebrew and Old Testament at Southern Seminary. He wasn't fired because he failed—he was dismissed because he stood firm. In this explosive and convicting episode, Pastor Joseph Spurgeon sits down with Dr. Fuller to uncover the compromise, cowardice, and critical theory that have crept into one of the SBC’s flagship institutions. From the denial of justification by faith to the promotion of CRT and postmodernism, Dr. Fuller recounts the quiet rot at Southern, the role Al Mohler played, and why real men must speak truth, no matter the cost.

What keeps Christians from speaking up for Christ? In this episode of Light + Truth, John Piper turns to Acts 4:13–22 to reveal the source of true boldness.
The last episode had us looking at the age old tradition of telling lies, so it only seems right to go the other way! Speaking truth though, can often get the speaker in trouble unless done in a careful way! This week, G. Long and Deb are discussing satire in history. Satire, especially comedic satire, has been used to speak truth about leaders, despots, society, religion, and everything in between for more than a thousand years. Plato, Erasmus, Swift, Twain, and others have demonstrated that satire is often more effective in cutting through the bullsh*t, than even the sharpest knife. We take a look at satire in history on this episode of the Long in the Boot Podcast!Thanks For Listening!

Alpha Warrior launches the debut episode of People with special guest Taylor Ferber, the unfiltered, fearless media voice behind Talk to Me Taylor. In this lively and deeply personal conversation, Taylor opens up about her journey from military and law enforcement kid to Hollywood insider and media disruptor. She shares how standing up to cancel culture before it was mainstream nearly ended her career, why she walked away from corporate media, and how her “tits out, brain out” philosophy became a powerful symbol of self-expression and defiance. Taylor reveals the highs and lows of her time covering red carpets, calling out hypocrisy, and refusing to be boxed in by Hollywood narratives. She and Alpha dive into everything from facing public judgment to refusing to compromise core values, from her groundbreaking feature in Playboy to hilarious red carpet moments with Morgan Freeman and Chris Pratt. Packed with humor, raw truth, and soul-searching reflections, this episode sets the tone for a series built on real conversations with real people living boldly.
How can we be set apart and uncensored? In this enlightening conversation, Todd Coconato discusses the importance of being set apart and uncensored in the Christian faith. He shares his personal experiences, including an angelic visitation that inspired his journey towards deeper consecration. The discussion delves into the dangers of complacency within the church, the necessity of fellowship, and the steps believers can take to grow spiritually. Coconato emphasizes the significance of heart posture, the reality of spiritual warfare, and the power of speaking truth in a world that often seeks to silence it. He concludes with encouragement for listeners to pursue a deeper relationship with God and offers resources for their spiritual growth. Takeaways Being set apart requires a commitment to consecration. Complacency in faith can lead to spiritual stagnation. Fellowship with other believers is essential for growth. Prayer and studying the Word are foundational to spiritual life. Heart posture matters in our relationship with God. Expect opposition when pursuing a deeper faith. Speaking truth is vital in a censored world. God's peace can sustain us through trials. We are called to be watchmen in a spiritual battle. God desires us to walk in His perfect will.

Every Christian parent longs to see their prodigal child—or any lost loved one—return to faith. But what if, in our eagerness to “speak truth” and correct their course, we’re actually widening the gap between them and God? In this eye-opening episode, Catherine welcomes Michael French—an attorney-turned-pastor with decades of experience in both traditional church settings and unconventional, deeply relational ministry. Through friendships forged in unexpected places—from tabletop games to immersive role play—Michael has reached those the Church often overlooks or even avoids: witches, warlocks, LGBTQ+ individuals, and the spiritually wounded. Michael’s story challenges how we think about evangelism, reminding us that Jesus always led with love before calling for change. He built relationships with the rejected, the broken, and the misunderstood—then spoke truth into hearts softened by compassion. This episode will reshape how you approach the prodigals and lost loved ones in your life—and rekindle hope that no one is too far gone. Key Insights from the Episode:

Quote to Ponder: “There are ways of being crucified that do not involve rough wood and heavy nails, but a love beyond our capacity to love, which means a love that has been given to us by God.” (Catherine Doherty) Scripture for Lectio: “The next day the great crowd that had come to the festival heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem. So they took branches of palm trees and went out to meet him, shouting, “Hosanna! Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord, The King of Israel!” Jesus found a young donkey and sat on it, as it is written: “do not be afraid daughter of Zion; look your king is coming, sitting on a donkey's colt.”” (John 12:12-15) Sponsor - Mary Powathil: Mary Powathil, a Houston-based iconographer and fine artist, creates sacred artwork that invites us into a deeper relationship with God.

Silence isn't necessarily golden when it comes to your relationships. This week on the Redeemed Marriage Podcast, Rusty and Heather Bryant take a look at the tough topic of speaking truth and having the courage to address questionable actions or patterns we see in those closest to us. Drawing from the biblical story of Judas, they explore how subtle shifts and patterns of behavior can lead to devastation. Learn practical insights on how to approach these delicate conversations, when to speak up (even if it's uncomfortable), and how to do so with love and grace. Is your silence protecting others, or is it enabling a dangerous path? Don't let fear hold you back from speaking life-giving truth. Tune in this week to The Redeemed Marriage Podcast and discover how you can develop the courage to confront with compassion. The Redeemed Marriage Website Watch us on YouTube

In this episode of The Dr. Cloud Show, psychologist Henry Cloud explores the delicate balance of addressing relationship problems while preserving emotional connection. He examines how to separate behaviors from personal worth, and ways to provide feedback without damaging self-esteem or injecting contempt into important relationships. Dr. Cloud walks through practical applications with callers facing common challenges: a wife seeking family stability while her husband changes jobs frequently, an individual rebuilding career direction after marital separation, and adult children concerned about a parent's pattern of physical altercations. Each situation illustrates effective boundary-setting, conflict resolution, and communication techniques that maintain respect while confronting difficult truths. Dr. Cloud emphasizes that healthy relationships require both honesty and compassion—showing how marriage counseling, family therapy principles, and workplace communication strategies all benefit from addressing problems through a lens of acceptance rather than rejection. His approach offers practical tools for parents, couples, and professionals to evaluate behaviors constructively while affirming the inherent value of the people involved.
When you think about all the false advertising, fake news, workplace slander, and neighborhood gossip we encounter every day, it's clear we live in a culture of falsehood. But when Jesus “the way, the truth, and the life” transforms our hearts, we can't help but to pour his gracious truth out to others.

Sermon from 02-04-2025
In this episode, we're talking about how America has real leadership again under Trump's administration, the importance of deporting illegal immigrants to restore law and order, and why we need to confirm RFK Jr. for the good of American health and wellbeing. We'll break down the policies that actually put America first, expose the chaos that's unfolded since, and discuss how we can push for real positive change for our country. We also need to focus on how we (desperately) need a separation of business and state.—https://noblegoldinvestments.com/invest/gold-ira/
Hello, to you listening in Post Falls, Idaho!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Time Out Tuesday and your host, Diane Wyzga.What does it mean to be radical? Radical. It's an ominous word, conveying danger, counter-culture, or even extreme behavior. But being radical can also mean speaking truth quietly with conviction, intention, and courage.Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde (another Jersey Girl!) fearlessly spoke truth to power in clear, concise, and compassionate words calling for mercy at an interfaith national prayer service at our National Cathedral. What was so important that the bishop would dare to directly address the president during her sermon, pleading for him to have “mercy on the people in the country who are scared,” notably, immigrants and members of the LGBTQ community. Hope! Hope was so important. Hope was the radical choice.
