In this week's episode we address, in real time, the unfolding calamity that Ye (the artist formerly known as Kanye West) has unleashed upon the world with his new controversial single “He*l H*tler” from his upcoming album “Cuck.” As of recording this episode it has been banned on nearly every platform on the internet but has gone viral anyway and has evolved into a cultural phenomena that has left the majority of us confused, offended and, if we're honest, uncomfortably amused. While burying our heads in the sand is a good enough solution for some, we hope to apply our god given gifts of discernment to meet this cultural phenomena head on,  dissect exactly how fascist movements form and how art is used to either fuel or foil it. We discuss not just the historical context of Ye's new single but unpack some of the esoteric symbolism therein to help us weigh out not just its hidden messages how much of this stunt is satire and how much is serious. What we discover is deep, dark and full of enough nuance to promise that anyone daring enough to take a glimpse will have plenty to consider when making up their own damn minds. It's ok to let people do that sometimes, you know… Thank you and enjoy the show! On this week's episode we discuss:The Fall of Kanye West“White Lives Matter”Nice Try DiddyDrink Champs and the Harley Pasternak Text Ye Embraces NaziismThe “Heil Hitler” SingleThe Banned Lyrics14/88 Dog WhisleThe Hitler QuoteBombing Pearl HarborIn the second half of this episode available for free at www.patreon.com/TheWholeRabbit we go further down the rabbit hole to discuss: Animal Symbolism and Roman VelitesBlack Volkish Movement?The Koryos and the Mannerbund The HooligansGematria of 35The Temple of Set & The Order of the TrapezoidIs Ye Just The King of Trolls?Slavjo Zizek Explains LaibachThe Kabbalah of the UltrasPointy Hants & PornographyEach host is responsible for writing and creating the content they present.Where to find The Whole Rabbit:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0AnJZhmPzaby04afmEWOAVInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_whole_rabbitTwitter: https://twitter.com/1WholeRabbitSources: Gematria 35https://www.ridingthebeast.com/numbers/nu35.phpADL 14/88https://www.adl.org/resources/hate-symbol/1488Slavoj Zizeck on Laibach:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dRvT3_8VctISupport the show

Not because of the birds, but because of the friends I have made, and the ones I hope to meet

But, if you're like many runners I know, pre-run coffee often leaves you with jitters or stomach issues. That's why I was so excited when I found Nandaka by Pique—the ultimate coffee alternative designed to power your runs, your training, and your recovery. So, what makes Nandaka different? Most so-called “coffee alternatives” don't actually provide functional energy. But Nandaka is built for endurance  Unlike coffee, which spikes your energy and leaves you crashing mid-run, Nandaka fuels you with steady, sustained endurance—no spikes, no crashes, just clean energy that lasts.  Nandaka provides its caffeine from fermented probiotic teas, which provide a slow-release caffeine that prevents jitters and gives you sustained release for those long runs workouts.  It also contains cordyceps mushrooms, which help boost VO2 max, delivering more oxygen to your muscles for better endurance  Plus, the probiotic teas mean no digestive distress like you often get with coffee.  If you're tired of running on fumes—or worse, running on coffee crashes—it's time to make the switch.  Right now, Pique is offering 20% off for life AND a free Starter Kit with your first purchase.  Go to Piquelife.com/run and start running on real energy today.  Your legs, your lungs, and your PRs will thank you

Springtime is the season for cleaning, decluttering, and the inevitable garage sales to aid those efforts. Could that be a spiritual discipline? Is simplicity a spiritual issue or it just a fad to figure out what “brings joy”? And furthermore, is it just about our stuff or could our schedules use some decluttering? Find out today as the guys talk about the spiritual discipline of simplicity.

John 21:1-19After these things, Jesus showed himself again to the disciples by the Sea of Tiberias. This is how he showed himself to them. Gathered there were Simon Peter, Thomas who was also called the Twin, Nathaniel of Cana in Galilee, the Sons of Zebedee and two others of his disciples. Simon Peter said to them, “I am going fishing.” They said to him, “We will go with you.” And they went and got into the boat, but that night they caught nothing.Just after daybreak, Jesus came and stood on the shore, but the disciples did not know that it was Jesus. He said to them, “My children, you haven't any fish, have you?” They said to him, “No.” He said to them, “Cast your net on the right side of the boat and you will find some.” So they cast it and they were not able to haul in the net because it was full of so many fish. The disciple whom Jesus loved said to Simon Peter, “It is the Lord!” When Simon Peter heard that it was Jesus, he put on some clothes for he was naked, and jumped into the sea. The others went in the boat, bringing with them the net full of fish, for they were not far from the land; only about a hundred yards off.When they had come ashore, they saw a charcoal fire with fish on it, and bread. Jesus said to them, “Bring with you some of the fish you just caught.” So Simon Peter went aboard and hauled the net ashore, full of large fish, one hundred fifty-three of them. But even though there were so many fish, the net was not torn. Jesus said to them, “Come and have breakfast.”Now, none of them dared to ask him, “Who are you?” because they new that it was Jesus. He came and took the bread and gave it to them and he did the same thing with the fish. This was the third time he had appeared to them since he had been raised from the dead.After they had eaten breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Simon, son of John, do you love me?” Peter said to him, “Yes, Lord, you know that I love you.” Jesus said to him, “Feed my lambs.” A second time, Jesus said to him, “Simon, son of John, do you love me?” Peter said to him, “Yes, Lord, you know that I love you.” Jesus said to him, “Tend my sheep.” A third time, Jesus said to him, “Simon, son of John, do you love me?” Peter, upset that he had asked him a third time, “Do you love me?,” said to him, “Lord, you know everything. You know that I love you.” Jesus said to him, “Feed my sheep. When you were a child, you used to fasten your own belt and go wherever you chose to go. But when you grow old you will stretch out your arms and others will fasten a belt around you and lead you to places that you may not choose to go.” (He said this in order to indicate the kind of death by which he would glorify God.) And when he has said this, he said to him, “Follow me.” Pastor Cogan said something, almost in passing last Sunday, in his sermon reflecting on Pope Francis. It was a one-liner that caught my attention in the moment and that came back to me when I read today's Gospel. He said that Pope Francis – faithful, humble servant that he was – “was a shepherd who smelled like his sheep.” “… a shepherd who smelled like his sheep.”Did anyone else catch that? Or remember that? Or wonder any more about that? I did, because I think it has a lot to say about where we find Jesus and his disciples – and especially, this famous conversation and command to Peter – on the beach at breakfast, not long after the resurrection.“Do you love me?” … “Yes.” … “Feed my lambs.”“Do you love me?” … “Yes.” … “Tend my sheep.”“Do you love me?” … “Yes.” … “Feed my sheep.”And you can't blame Jesus for asking again, and again, and again. It's no coincidence that Jesus asked him three times, after what had happened just days before, of course, when Peter, questioned just before the crucifixion, denied Jesus three times to strangers, just as Jesus warned him that he would. So, this “Q and A” between Jesus and Peter – this whole experience on the beach after Easter, really – is chock full of symbolism and meaning. But, to the sheep and the lambs…Too much of the time for us, “sheep” and especially “lambs” – so close to Easter Sunday, in the spring of the year – elicit a warm and fuzzy, soft and sweet, cute, cuddly, cozy kind of vibe – don't you think? They are the stuff of Springtime and Easter baskets, right. But the truth is, sheep are actually dirty and lambs are pretty dumb. (Here's that video I'm sure many of us have seen of a sheep being both – dirty and dumb.) And remember that even the “sheep” Jesus refers to so often, even before this brunch on the beach, are pitiable and lost and in need of redemption, too. Remember that the “sheep” in Jesus' teachings need to be separated from the goats, they need to be found because they've gone astray, they need to be saved from the clutches of the wolves that surround them, and they need to listen for the sound of their shepherd's voice to lead them. And besides, all of that, remember that the warm and fuzzy Lamb, in Jesus himself, gets sacrificed, after all. And remember that the Lamb of God, in Jesus Christ, showed up to do the dirty work of taking away the sin of the world.There's not much “warm and fuzzy” or “cute and cuddly” or “soft and sweet” about any of that, in the end. The Lord's work is dirty work, to say the least. So it's notable, for me, that Jesus uses “sheep” and “lambs” as a metaphor for Peter, the fisherman – again – this time around.So when he talks about feeding sheep and tending to lambs, it seems to me, that Jesus is talking about the hard and holy stuff of life and discipleship for believers, this morning. And he's implying that you really need to LOVE Jesus, in order to fully enter into the business of following him faithfully.So we're invited to wonder, what in the world that means for you and me? Where are the sheep and the lambs, the lost and the lonely, the scared, the sick, the suffering – and the stinky – in this world and in your life?He makes it really hard for us to avoid the question. When Jesus asks us if we love him, who and how and what is he really asking us to consider? How many of us – like Pope Francis – smell like the sheep we're called to love and serve?For starters, it seems random, but it's no mistake that the Gospel writer says there were 153 fish in the net that morning. It's not likely anyone actually counted those fish. It's a number that smarter people than me suggest is meant to symbolize the entirety of creation; or they say it symbolizes all the people and every nation of the world. So, it's just another reminder that, as followers of Jesus, we're meant to tend to, feed, care about, and love all people; from every nation; in every land; even when it's hard. Even when it stinks. Do you love Jesus, even if it leads to people and to places where you may not want to go? Do you love Jesus, even if it leads people to your doorstep who you wish wouldn't come?Of course, we answer this question in other ways, too.I hope, when we consider our financial commitments to the General Fund in the days ahead, we'll hear that question, again: “Do you love me?” And I pray our commitments and the offerings that follow will be one meaningful way that we respond – even if it's uncomfortable, unfamiliar, unconventional by the world's standards and expectations.I hope, as we're filling out our Time and Talent Sheets for the year ahead, too, that Jesus' question will ring in our ears, “Do you love me?” And that how we choose to serve the world through our little part of the kingdom at Cross of Grace will reveal our answer in a faithful way – and that we'll do it even when it's inconvenient sometimes; even if it's new; even if it's something we've done before or something we never thought we'd do at all. Even if it stinks from time to time, like helping to clean the church or to mow the lawn.I hope, that as we live our lives in this broken and hurting world, that we see around us – on the evening news, in the hallways at school, in the house down the street, on the faces of strangers, and in the mirror – I hope we see the sheep and lambs of Jesus – the children of God – who are starving for, who need and who deserve to be fed and tended to and loved with the same grace we long for, need, and try to share around here.I hope that when we wonder about what it looks like to love Jesus, that we aren't afraid to get our hands dirty, to stop pretending that life in this world – our own lives or the lives of our neighbors – are always neat and tidy, soft and sweet, cute, cuddly, and convenient. I hope our lives of faith in this world leave us smelling like sheep.Because the truth is we are all sheep. Each of us is a lamb. We all stink of the sin that covers us. And we're all unable to be free of it on our own.So Jesus shows up to inspire us and to encourage us and to love us, first – all so that we might follow him – like he invites Peter to do – into a new way of life. So that we'll follow him into a kingdom that is built on service and sacrifice, generosity and grace, mercy and good news; a kingdom built with very clear directions from the resurrected and living love of Jesus Christ our Lord – who so faithfully feeds, tend to, and loves us – and the world – so that we can't help but return the favor, in his name.Amen

Send us a textThe human heart finds itself caught in a peculiar paradox. That new toy, that exciting purchase, that long-awaited gift—how quickly their luster fades! Within days, sometimes hours, we're already looking elsewhere for satisfaction. Yet somehow, the pink blush of cherry blossoms or the golden glow of sunset never loses its power to move us, no matter how many times we've witnessed these wonders.This distinction reveals a profound spiritual truth explored in our latest episode. As we pass the spring equinox, nature offers us its annual masterclass in renewal. "Behold, the winter has passed, the rain is dead and gone," we hear from ancient wisdom. The world around us bursts forth with new life—seeds that have been silently working beneath the soil now reveal their growth in spectacular fashion. God promised after the great flood that seasons would never cease, and this divine consistency provides us with perennial opportunities for spiritual renewal.Rabbi Yerucham understood this deeply. After walking outside during springtime, he burst into his study hall with an urgent question for his disciples: "Everything outside is sprouting, is growing. Why aren't we growing?" His challenge resonates through the centuries to reach us today. During Chayidash Ha'aviv—these special days between Pesach and Shavuos—we're invited to follow nature's example. Each morning offers a fresh opportunity to push through our personal limitations and pursue self-growth and self-discovery with the same determination as those spring seedlings. Listen now and discover how you can approach the upcoming Shavuos holiday with a truly rejuvenated spirit, learning from the silent but powerful example of the blossoming world outside your window.Support the showJoin The Motivation Congregation WhatsApp community for daily motivational Torah content!Elevate your impact by becoming a TMC Emerald Donor!

Michelle Delp is the Regional GM for Fearless Restaurants, and she joined our host so we could SPRING into what's fashionable to eat in University City! Louie Louie offers a vibe that feels very European French Bistro, and with their sidewalk-based seating now open, and new spring menu available and Happy Hours extended...everyone who visits can enjoy the atmosphere and menu options no matter what they're looking for! Whether you're looking for a lighter, brighter meal or dining for a richly, decadent dinner...Louie Louie offers whatever you desire to indulge in. And stay tuned for all the new happenings for Louie Louie, including details about their Espresso Martini Tower, events that are coming up, and of course...what to dine on when you're there!https://louielouie.restaurantWhat you eat matters, which is something that Corie Coles, who is the 4th generation-owner of Triple C Angus, knows, works, and stands behind. Although Corie initially left the family farm to seek a different career path, she circled back to her family's business later on. Her parents still run the day-to-day operations related to farming, however Corie took on a different role at Triple C Angus. Today, everything that the farm produces has to pass through Corie's hands to ensure they're offering the best cuts of meat to offer each customer. And to her, the individuals who purchase either pieces or shares of her family's beef, pork, and chicken are not just customers--they are part of her community. So not only does it matter that the animals they raise are well-cared for, it matters to her that she gets to know the people who purchase their products. To the Coles, family and community matters--and so does what they take home to eat. To learn more about Corie and Triple C Angus, stay tuned to hear her story and then visit the family farm and website for more information on what they offer.https://triplecangus.comGet the latest scoop from Irv's Ice Cream when you tune in to hear from Chef and Owner Ilissa Shapiro! Chef Shapiro just opened her second location on East Passyunk Ave, where you can try out her newest ice cream flavor: Sweet Corn! Make every lick count as she creates her custard-based sweet treats from scratch. Chef Shapiro previously worked inside kitchens on both the West and East Coast, and has always enjoyed making ice cream while working for those restaurants. However, a collaboration created an opportunity that turned into owning her own business, and today Ilissa is scooping up her creative flavors for everyone to enjoy!

In what started out as a May Day date (that's a truckload of compost in Rick and Elara's world), a visit to San Pasqual Valley Soils struck black gold (again, compost).  In one of the most fortuitous spontaneous Backyard Green Films conversations yet, an extremely knowledgeable dirt farmer by the name of Craig Kolodge, PhD (“Dr. K.” to pretty much everyone) gave an impromptu interview, surrounded by towers of amendment and beeping trucks full of manure, compost and wood chips.  Elara was in heaven, with the conversation chock full of words such as “nematode,” ”sequestration,” “carbon cycle,” and other sciency stuff.Don't ever say there's no such thing as romance anymore, especially in Springtime. Links:https://spvsoils.com/https://spvsoils.com/craig-m-kolodge/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/May_Dayhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dionysushttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aphroditehttps://clairemontonline.com/event-6080495Support the show

Springtime in North Carolina is gorgeous. It can't help itself. Perhaps it's oblivious to—or in radical disagreement with—the brokenness of our times. Either way, the azaleas burst into riotous bloom, the crepe myrtles frill themselves in defiant pinks. In the mornings, birds trade secrets across the creek, their calls carried on air perfumed with fresh dew on pine needles to the back porch, where I sit in my mother's rocking chair.This is the place where one branch of my family has put down roots. An invisible wheel exists here among us, with smaller wheels—wheels within wheels—turning persistently through the seasons. It's also the place where a beloved uncle passed last autumn, just as the maple outside his bedroom window flared into auburn light. In his final days, we watched that tree together and recounted long-forgotten stories. I remembered a visit to First Street in Rumson, when he swung me onto his shoulders and walked down the street. I remembered how the curves of his shoulders hummed beneath me as he laughed. How tall I felt then, how near to the canopy of trees; how the world suddenly seemed bigger and closer, and I, more a part of it—alive to everything, and everything alive around us.Memory can work like this—the way light filters through leaves or a scent pulls you backward. In a recent conversation with Krista Tippett, musician Justin Vernon (better known as Bon Iver) said, “I thought I was done being surprised… but there are things behind things behind things.” The layers accumulate, folded under the weight of time, only to surface in time, unbidden yet strangely familiar.Now the maple is green again, its leaves doing what they were made to do when touched by springtime light. Its roots drink in a soft rain. Some layers remain hidden, or slip away, only to circle back, as though time itself were not linear, but folding in on itself like fabric. And I think about how you have entered the mystery now, and maybe you are humming in some new, unknowable way.Practice—call it “mindfulness” or whatever name feels right—is an agreement to be touched by the world, by the nature of our aliveness. David Abram called it “a kindredship of matter with itself.” We learn to live in reciprocal communion, even unknowingly, and discover within ourselves gradually more tonality, more steadiness, more truth. When we plant ourselves in this moment, and notice the ways we are thirsty, and then return again and again, we begin to sense that our lives are not just motion or mechanism, but part of some deeper listening—not just hub and spoke, but spiraling motion.Hope, too, is a force of nature. It arrives unannounced. Here's another chance, another season. The word numinous comes from numen—a Latin term that means both “a nod of the head” and “divine will.” Now spring has found its fulcrum, and with a quiet nod toward resurrection, it invites us to reach for something like joy, whether or not we feel ready or agree with time's assessment.Springtime is not a promise. It's a presence. A tilt in the wheel. A shimmer in the unseen. A reminder that aliveness is not always sweet or simple—but it is, still, ours.Together, we are making sense of being human in an era of radical change. Your presence here matters.

As the rivers begin to wake up from winter and the fish get hungry, spring offers some of the best opportunities of the year to improve your fly fishing game. In this episode of Southeastern Fly, we're sharing practical tips to help you shake off the winter rust and make the most of the upcoming season.We start with casting—because let's face it, most of us haven't picked up a rod in a while. From roll casts to single hauls, we walk through simple ways to practice in your yard, how to set targets, and even why filming yourself can help. This segment is all about making those casts count once you're back on the water.Next up: weather apps. Springtime in the South means fast-changing conditions, and a good weather app can be the difference between a memorable day on the water and one you'd rather forget. We share a story about getting caught in a sudden hailstorm (hint: don't ignore the friendly cabin folks when they invite you out of the rain) and offer tips for timing your day to avoid the worst of the wind and crowds.Finally, we talk about paying attention to what's changed since winter. High water events can move gravel bars, create new feeding lanes, and shift resting spots. We explain how to read these changes to find fish more effectively—and why being observant (or as we call it, “observating”) is one of the best tools in your kit this spring.Whether you're brushing up your cast, watching the sky, or scanning the riverbed, these tips will help you start the season strong.

America stands at an economic precipice where the next few years will determine whether we face catastrophic collapse or unexpected revival.In this solo episode, we dive deep into the precarious state of America's economy and explore a potential path forward based on insights from Joe Withrow of the Phoenician League. The discussion examines the unprecedented economic situation facing the United States and presents a surprising perspective on how recent policy proposals could potentially avert a sovereign debt crisis.With nearly half of the national debt coming due in the next three years and interest payments projected to overtake Social Security by 2026, the solutions presented offer a radical rethinking of federal assets and how they might be leveraged to save America's financial future.Economic Reality Check: Current economic conditions are unprecedented in our lifetime, with interest payments on the national debt projected to surpass Social Security as the largest budget item by 2026 if nothing changes.Global Financial Power Struggle: The Federal Reserve appears engaged in a power struggle with European central banks, with implications for America's financial future despite the Fed's inherent flaws.Revolutionary Economic Approach: Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick's proposal for creating an External Revenue Service and a Sovereign Wealth Fund could transform government finances by properly valuing federal assets.Looming Debt Crisis: Nearly $17 trillion in US treasuries (almost half the national debt) is due over the next three years, requiring decisive action to prevent financial catastrophe.Innovative Asset Strategy: Leasing federal land for energy and mining, taking stakes in defense contractors, and leveraging gold reserves could generate hundreds of billions in annual revenue through a new Sovereign Wealth Fund.▶️ Chapters:00:00 - Introduction & Economic Crossroads 01:00 - Setting Up the Solo Episode Context03:00 - Macro vs Microeconomics Perspective05:00 - Joe Withrow's Insights on Global Economic Struggles10:00 - The Federal Reserve vs European Central Banks17:00 -  "Springtime for America" - Lutnick's Economic Proposal 20:00 - The Interest Payment Crisis Looming26:00 - Federal Government's Undervalued Assets33:00 - Treasury Bonds Coming Due in Next Three Years37:00 - Sovereign Wealth Fund Potential Revenue Sources45:00 -  Closing Thoughts on Statistics and ResponsibilityGot Questions?

Throughout the summer, fall and winter, we go through experiences that are emotionally charged, mentally charged and spiritually challenging. Some of the more toxic encounters and situations we have gone through tend to embed themselves into our mind, subconsciousness and consciousness. As the winter progresses, those things stay rooted and cemented in our spiritual beings and add to the OCD and PTSD many are struggling with. Spring is not only a healing igniter, but also an emotional healer. Using the Spring Tools in this episode can help loosen old, toxic wounds and create new, powerful, healing references that can rewire and alter your mental and emotional state. In this episode… Learn about winter PTSD and how our struggles or hardships from summer, fall or winter can get stored up inside of us. Discover different methods of monitoring the grass and how nothing rewires the brain like nature does. Uncover how old, emotional experiences can harden up in the tissues of your body. Learn how to soften and loosen experiences that you don't want to reference all the time. Discover how the snapping of a twig can rewire the brain. Uncover the powers behind selective bird listening and how those imprints can make a huge impact. All this and more, tune in and don't miss out on this important episode. You can revisit this episode anytime you need it. For more information visit www.medicalmedium.com
