“But you belong to God, my dear children. You have already won a victory over those people, because the Spirit who lives in you is greater than the spirit who lives in the world.” (1 John 4:4 NLT) The apparent dead-end at the Red Sea must have seemed especially cruel to the people of Israel. Moses had led them out of slavery in Egypt, according to God’s instructions. They had tasted freedom, and they were on their way to the land God had promised their ancestors. But for a moment it looked as though they would get no further than the water’s edge. The Red Sea blocked their forward progress, and the pursuing Egyptian army blocked any hope of retreat. Fighting their way out was out of the question. Pharaoh’s army was the mightiest military on the face of the earth. Imagine the terror and devastation the Israelites must have experienced when they saw that mighty force—with its chariots, horses, shields, swords, and spears—bearing down on them in the distance. The Israelites thought they were dead. “But Moses told the people, ‘Don’t be afraid. Just stand still and watch the Lord rescue you today. The Egyptians you see today will never be seen again. The Lord himself will fight for you. Just stay calm’” (Exodus 14:13–14 NLT). Just stay calm. That’s a mighty tall order to cram into three small words. But the wisdom served the people of Israel well. God parted the waters of the Red Sea so that they could walk across on dry land. And when Pharaoh and his army tried to pursue, God closed the waters and drowned them. Just stay calm. Those words will also serve us well as disciples of Christ. Like the people of Israel, we are being pursued by our enemy after being set free. When the devil senses that he has us in a vulnerable position, he will come at us with everything he has, including temptations and deception. And they can be intimidating. We may start to question whether we can withstand his barrage. Spoiler alert: We can. The apostle John wrote, “But you belong to God, my dear children. You have already won a victory over those people, because the Spirit who lives in you is greater than the spirit who lives in the world” (1 John 4:4 NLT). If you are a believer, the Spirit of God lives in you. You belong to the Lord. Yes, the devil can tempt you. He can hassle you. But he cannot overcome you, because you are under God’s protection. In Ephesians 6, the apostle Paul talks about the believer’s spiritual armor: the helmet of salvation, the breastplate of righteousness, the sword of the Spirit, and so forth. But before he describes the armor, he writes, “A final word: Be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power” (Ephesians 6:10 NLT). In other words, just stay calm. Stand still and watch the Lord rescue you. Reflection question: How can you stay calm when troubles come?

What happens when the company responsible for protecting everyone else becomes the one that gets hacked? Spoiler alert: it's not just their problem. This episode dives into the uncomfortable reality that when an IT provider gets hit, the ripple effects can slam into hundreds, or even thousands, of businesses at once. From ransomware evolution to insider threats to the ever-growing AI wildcard, this conversation pulls back the curtain on why cybersecurity isn't just an IT issue… it's everyone's issue.

Psychological horror breakdown time. Henrique Couto & Rachael Redolfi dive into Ti West's Pearl (2022) — the candy-colored prequel to X that turns ambition, isolation, repression, and rage into a full-blown descent. We talk Mia Goth's star-making performance, why the film feels like a twisted classic-Hollywood fever dream, and how the story's backdrop of 1918 rural life, sickness, and war-era anxiety amplifies Pearl's need to be seen… and her capacity to snap.This is a spoiler-friendly discussion that balances analysis with fun commentary: the movie's look, tone, character psychology, and what Pearl is really saying about fame hunger, performing normal, and the horror of being trapped in the life you didn't choose.Where to watch (U.S.)Apple TV (rent/buy): https://tv.apple.com/us/movie/pearl/umc.cmc.75j73kjmgv3th4uw9nrotobyq“Where to stream” hub (rent/buy listings): https://www.justwatch.com/us/movie/pearl-2022Inside this episodeWhy Pearl works as psychological horror and character studyThe “Technicolor nightmare” vibe: how style makes the violence hit harderPearl's need for stardom vs. the reality of confinement and caretakingThe movie's emotional pressure-cooker: control, shame, resentment, longingHow Pearl connects to X (and why the trilogy view is so rewarding)The performances and moments that make the film unforgettable

He talks about how grateful he is for the way tech lets this little “Fellowship of the Withered Hand” learn and pray together, and at the same time, he names the rising tide of loneliness, anxiety, and screen addiction shaping modern life. Drawing from The Anxious Generation by Jonathan Haidt, John points out how especially hard this has become for young people.

This week, in honor of Black History Month, the ladies review Percival Everett's powerful and provocative novel The Trees. They begin with the book's gripping premise: when detectives from the Mississippi Bureau of Investigation arrive in Money, Mississippi to investigate a series of brutal murders, they discover something unsettling at each crime scene, a second body resembling Emmett Till. Met with resistance from local law enforcement and racist townsfolk, the detectives begin to suspect these killings are acts of retribution. As eerily similar murders begin unfolding across the country, it becomes clear that the past refuses to stay buried and that something larger is underway.In this bold and biting page turner, Everett confronts the legacy of lynching, white supremacy, and racial violence in America with sharp satire and unflinching honesty. The hosts unpack the novel's layered storytelling, dark humor, historical weight, and cultural commentary, discussing how it challenges readers while refusing comfort. It is a thought provoking conversation about memory, justice, and what it means when history demands to be reckoned with. Cheeers!SPOILERS & Trigger Warning: This book discusses the use of racial slurs, racial violence, racial hatred, lynchings, and other forms of racist behavior.

You ever wonder why you can't eat just one chip? Or why chicken tastes different than it did decades ago? In this episode, I break down how the food industry engineered salt, sugar and fat to hit your brain's “bliss point,” how fast food reshaped American farming, and why profit became more important than public health. From factory-raised chickens to feedlot beef to grocery store manipulation, we're unpacking how the system was built—and what you can actually do about it. Spoiler: it's not a willpower problem.

This week on The Geoholics, we fire up the mics, and dive head-first into something bigger than business, bigger than titles… bigger than ego. Legacy. Our guest, Mikel Bowman — President of Bowman Legacies, leadership coach, keynote speaker, and best-selling author of Lead From the Middle — joins us to talk about the difference between being remembered… and actually making a difference. Spoiler alert: -Legends get applause. -Legacies change lives. Mikel doesn't preach leadership from a boardroom. He talks about getting in the dirt with your people — job sites, shop floors, and real-world pressure where culture either shows up… or falls apart. From near-miss moments on projects to coaching CEOs and first-timers alike, he shares why servant leadership, mindset shifts, and culture-first thinking are the real levers that save teams (and sometimes lives). We unpack: Why culture beats process every time The biggest leadership blind spots managers don't want to admit What separates managers from leaders from legacy builders How one tough question can silence a room — and spark real change And why leadership starts in the messy middle, not the corner office This episode hits home for anyone leading crews, projects, families, or companies — especially those of us in survey, geospatial, and construction who know leadership isn't theory… it's boots-on-the-ground reality. If you've ever thought: “There's got to be a better way to lead…” This one's for you. Because at the end of the day…It's not about building your résumé...It's about building people...And building something that outlives you! Music by Metallica!!

If you've ever wondered what happens when a daily comedy show accidentally stumbles into bowling ownership, Valentine's Day ethics, and a Pokémon scandal in the same morning… congratulations. You found your people.Today's episode kicks off with a major announcement: Moon Valjean is now the proud owner of Pin-Up Bowl in The Loop. That's right. Our own Moon — musician, radio host, professional vibe curator — now owns 73 bowling balls and possibly a dream. We talk leagues, Pete Weber tributes, pre- and post-Pageant party domination, and whether Rizz will immediately break something in the back mechanical room. (He will.)Then we dive headfirst into Valentine's Day drama. Rafe casually admits he made THREE dinner reservations “just in case,” which spirals into a full breakdown of modern dating strategy. Is that romantic preparedness or Cupid-level chaos? Meanwhile, we debate whether you break up before Valentine's Day or fake it through dessert like an emotional stunt double. Tough love was served hotter than a Longhorn ribeye.Speaking of Longhorn… a dad goes viral bragging that his son told his date to “get the tip” after he paid for dinner. The result? No tip. No second date. Just a waitress caught in the crossfire of a weird morality lesson. The crew does not hold back on this one. Spoiler alert: Rizz is Team Waitress.Oh, and yes — apparently there was a PokéStop on Epstein Island. We unpack how that even happens, how PokéStops work, and how the internet manages to make everything weirder than it already is.We also hit: • Britney vs Bieber catalog money debate • Nelson Mandela, Buster Douglas, and accidental Cheney history • Bands ditching talent agencies post-Epstein files • A Clownspiracy involving Orville Peck and Clownvis • And the ongoing saga of King Scott dressing like Austin Powers in publicIt's your favorite daily comedy show doing what we do best: taking real headlines, real life, and real awkwardness and turning it into something you can laugh at on your commute (worth $8,158 annually, apparently).If you're into pop culture chaos, sarcastic humor, St. Louis energy, and a group of friends who probably overshare for a living, this daily comedy show is your safe place.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.Olympian Sturla Holm Lægreid Holds Back Tears as He Admits to Affair in Live TV Interview After Medal WinPokémon Go Players Kept Swarming The Epstein Island Pokéstop, Forcing Devs To Remove ItFormer substitute teacher accused of sexual relationship with minorMissouri lawmakers propose easing vehicle inspection rulesToyota recalls 141K vehicles over doors that could open while driving4 people have died from eating death cap mushrooms as they spread in California after rainsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This is an audio essay from my Substack, Process This. Look, I wasn't planning to write 5,000 words on Steve Bannon, but then he goes on his podcast and announces that ICE—the same agency that just shot two American citizens in Minneapolis—is going to "surround the polls" in November, and I couldn't help myself. So I went back to Reinhold Niebuhr's 1944 book The Children of Light and the Children of Darkness, where he divided the political world into naive idealists who think reason and dialogue will save us, and moral cynics who understand power but recognize no law beyond their own will. Turns out Niebuhr basically wrote Bannon's biography eighty years early. This essay traces how Bannon evolved from "flooding the zone with shit" to proposing armed federal agents at polling places—and why liberals kept bringing fact-checks to a knife fight. Niebuhr called the children of darkness "wise" because they understand self-interest, but he also called them "evil" because they serve no good beyond domination. The question he leaves us with is whether the children of light can get wise without losing their souls. Spoiler: he doesn't promise we win. PS. I was in the middle of writing a completely different essay on Niebuhr before Bannon interrupted me. I loved re-reading The Children of Light and the Children of Darkness recently, and it's way too timely. You can subscribe to the Audio Essay podcast feed here.

What did Herod Antipas' transformation of the "Sea of Galilee" into the commercial "Sea of Tiberias" mean for peasant fishing communities? Why did Jesus emerge from John's baptism movement proclaiming God's Rule through parables—and what made that medium so perfectly suited to that message?

Episode Overview In this episode, Annie and Jen tackle a topic that's often misunderstood: how much influence do you actually have over your weight? Spoiler: it's probably not as much (or as little) as you may think.

This conversation is packed with compassionate truth bombs, smart science, and—most importantly—realistic, empowering guidance for women who are tired of feeling like their bodies are a personal failure. Whether you're someone who's been told "you just need more willpower" or you've been frustrated by slow (or no) results despite doing "everything right," this episode will help you zoom out, find your footing, and keep moving forward.

Most people think selling themselves means talking more. Explaining more. Proving more.That's the one of the biggest mistakes I see, even in some extremely high level business owners or job candidates.Whether you realize it or not, you're selling yourself all the time — in interviews, meetings, conversations, and in how you answer the question, “So… what do you do?”This video was inspired by a message I received from someone who was asked to explain why they deserved a promotion and a chance to move into a different department.She didn't need better words. She needed a better understanding of what actually makes someone choose her.Spoiler alert... she got the job!In this video, I walk through 9 simple moves that show you how to sell yourself without talking about yourself — by shifting the focus to the other person, what they care about, and what they stand to gain.These aren't just interview tricks. They're principles.And once you understand them, they work everywhere — in leadership, business, relationships, and any room where a decision is being made.I also linked a free resource below with the 9 moves laid out clearly so you can bookmark and reference them anytime.
"I'm just Type A—that's why we clash." "I'm an Alpha male. This is just who I am." "I'm anxiously attached. I can't help how I react." I hear these statements constantly in my coaching work. And every time, I watch the same thing happen: growth stops. The label becomes a shield. The framework becomes a prison. And the marriage stays stuck. In this episode, I'm examining three of the most popular psychological frameworks people use to explain their behavior—and what the research actually says about them. Spoiler: the science doesn't support what most people think it does. What We Cover: Type A personality and what the research really found (hint: it's not about drive or ambition) Alpha Male theory and the wolf study that's been debunked for decades Attachment styles—solid research that people are using in terrible ways Why these frameworks become barriers to change instead of pathways to growth The difference between using psychology as a map vs. using it as a jail cell Fair Warning This episode is direct. If you're invested in one of these frameworks, you might feel defensive listening to it. Pay attention to that reaction. It's information. Because your marriage doesn't need more explanation for why things aren't working. It needs change. And change becomes impossible when you're more committed to protecting your identity than examining your impact. This episode is about coachability—the willingness to question what you think you know about yourself in service of building the marriage you actually want. Ready to get uncomfortable? Listen below.

If you think the worst thing that can happen while skiing is trying not to scream while the ski patrol figures out why your leg's bending that way, we have a lot to teach you about skiing. Spoiler: mountains can cook and kill people. Don't say this podcast doesn't teach you things. On today's episode: you will learn why Frankenstein was more graceful on stolen corpse feet than you are in snowboots; you'll learn why diagonal tunnels basically act as nature's secret logistical flamethrowers; and we'll see how a $40 appliance permanently derailed a $30-million-a-year alpine operation and changed European history.And if you were listening on Patreon… you would hear about the industrial accident that unearthed the entire history of humanity in Western Europe; you would hear about all the terrible things that happened to the last King of England to die in battle before and after he actually died (spoiler: most of the injuries were after); and if you don't know the story, we'll tell you how Dionysus gave Damocles PTSD.This is one of those bad day at work/bad holiday episodes where everything that could have helped along the way was too expensive, and the one thing that was supposed to help someone was so cheap, it killed almost everybody. We're going to learn a lot about just how weird and active fire can be. Most people picture fire like this: Flames burn, heat rises, you step back. That's fine, if it's burning in a free and open space. You have no chance of being suffocated by it, and it's easy to play keep away with. In an open-air fire, heat rises and disperses, oxygen flows in from every which way, and the smoke just carries away on the breeze. In today's fire, not so much. We will be facing less of a camp fire and more of a blow torch. This episode also marks our return to the European Alps, where we will discover an entirely different way of being afraid of mountains, so that's fun! And as long as we're learning to be afraid of new things, we're also going to look at how everything around us, from the things we sit on to the clothes we wear, all break down into vaporized toxins that will absolutely make for not so good think before shutting you off for good. This is also an episode that extends our philosophy that any “vehicle” could double as a coffin, and funicular is a vehicle we've never explored before.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/doomsday-history-s-most-dangerous-podcast--4866335/support.

Have you been pretending you're fine, while shame and pressure quietly run the show behind the scenes?In this episode of the Spiral Up Podcast, I sit down with Paul Simard, a death doula and men's wellbeing guide, to talk about what most of us avoid: grief, shame, and the emotional weight we keep stuffing down because we think we should “handle it.” Spoiler alert, that strategy is exactly what keeps you stuck.Paul shares a powerful story about unexpectedly losing his job, hiding it for weeks, and how unprocessed grief turns into a spiral down that shows up in your body, your business, and your relationships.

You're not broken. You're human. And your emotions are not the enemy, they're information.What if depression is really a collapse of imagination, not a personality flaw?The “get to” mindset shift that changes everything when life hits hard.Simple nervous system tools you can use today to stop the shame spiral.Listen now, and if this hits home, subscribe, share this episode with a friend, and leave a review so I can keep bringing you conversations that help you spiral up.

Eric G kicks off this lively mid-week update with a shout-out to his co-host John Dudley, who's hitting the big 5-6. Can you believe it? Another trip around the sun for Johnny boy! Eric shares a blast from the past, recounting how they met back in the early 2000s, bonding over home improvement shenanigans and a bit of drama from their television days. The nostalgia is real, folks! But don't worry, we're not just here for birthday celebrations. Eric swiftly dives into some pressing home issues, like recalls on household products. Spoiler alert: it's not just your average stuff; we're talking about hot pressure washers and sketchy gas cans. Seriously, who designed a gas can that doesn't work? It's like inventing a toaster that doesn't toast. Eric's got your back, though, reminding listeners to stay updated with the latest recalls to keep their homes safe. Now, let's get down to the nitty-gritty of home renovations. Ever wondered how long a kitchen or bath remodel really takes? Eric takes a stand against those absurd claims of ‘two-day remodels' and ‘five-day kitchen transformations.' Yeah, right! He breaks it down like a pro, explaining the real timelines that come with these projects. From demos to inspections, you can forget about quick fixes if you want quality. He's all about keeping it real, warning that a good bathroom remodel can easily stretch to a month. And kitchens? Don't even think about it being less than six weeks. Eric's insights are both practical and a tad sarcastic – a reminder that if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. So grab your tools, folks, and get ready for some serious home improvement talk!Takeaways:Eric G kicks off the episode with a heartfelt and slightly sarcastic birthday shoutout to co-host John Dudley, celebrating his 56th trip around the sun.In this episode, we dive deep into the wild world of product recalls that might be lurking in your home – because who doesn't want a surprise hazard with their morning coffee?Spoiler alert: remodeling your kitchen or bathroom isn't a quickie project – expect reality to hit hard when Eric breaks down the real timelines involved.Forget the myth of the two-day bathroom remodel; Eric explains why you should brace yourself for a month-long journey to a truly transformed space.We explore the chaotic beauty of home renovations, where timelines are more like suggestions and 'quick fixes' are often just a bad joke.Eric's sarcastic take on the absurdity of 'one-day remodels' serves as a wake-up call for anyone considering a kitchen upgrade – buckle up, it's going to be a bumpy ride!Links referenced in this episode:aroundthehouseonline.comyoutube.com/aroundthehousewithEricGCompanies mentioned in this episode:Around the HouseWellborn CabinetNorthern Tool and EquipmentAirova
Star Trek: Starfleet Academy Episode 5 review & breakdown! We're talking “Series Acclimation Mil”—SAM, the Sisko mystery, and a huge Deep Space Nine love letter. Spoilers for Starfleet Academy S1E5 — we hit the red alert early.We're back! Captain Shoff, Captain Linda Pages, and Captain Vactor (This Comic Cooks) break down Episode 5 from SAM's perspective, including the “Confronting the Unexplainable” seminar, DS9 connections, and why this episode hit so hard. Question of the Week: If you could “confront the unexplainable” in Star Trek history… what case would YOU pick?
Okay, y'all. Buckle up for a full-body reminder: there is nothing wrong with you. In this episode, I'm throwing down the truth about judgment (yours and everyone else's), ego meltdowns, pink hair stereotypes, and what happens when you finally shut up long enough to hear what's going on in your own head. We get real about red pepper anxiety, the silent retreat that changed me, and the quote that's been living rent-free in my brain: “No one will ever love you the way you want to be loved… because that's your job.” Spoiler: there's also a blue breath meditation to clear out your throat chakra so you can speak your truth without all the noise. It's part pep talk, part truth bomb, and all heart. Let's go.
Look, I'm not anti-private school. You want your kid to learn in an environment that matches your beliefs? Cool. To each their own. But should your neighbors be paying for it? North Carolina is funneling half a billion dollars into private schools with almost zero oversight. 87% of new voucher money is going to families who were already paying for private school. Meanwhile, public schools are losing funding and teachers are getting paid near the bottom in the country. In this episode, I talk to a former student, a policy researcher, and a reporter who couldn't find a school that was cashing state checks. Spoiler: it took her seven addresses to track it down.
