When did we decide that milestones are too expensive, too religious, or just too much damn effort?0:00 – Intro: Faith. No Filter.2:15 – The modern death of funerals4:33 – Ritual is the punctuation in a sentence6:48 – Paralysed by an unmarked death9:03 – Burying Blacky the goldfish11:18 – Baptism: the capital letter that starts a life13:33 – "This is dumb": trying to skip my own graduation16:55 – Ritual changes nothing, but it changes everything18:03 – Friday night ritual fatigue20:18 – Making the silent universe give a tossIn this episode of Filthy Hope, hosts Rev Ness Williams-Henke and Rev Jon Humphries discuss the big C's of human ritual: commemoration, commiseration and celebration. Spurred by a chilling trend of families skipping funerals to save cash or cut corners, they dissect the spiritual and psychological fallout of living without "full stops." From the lingering agony of a sibling who never got to say goodbye, to the absolute absurdity of hosting an immediate, wet funeral for a kid's pet goldfish, this conversation exposes our desperate, deep-seated need to mark our endings out loud.Ness opens up with radical vulnerability about her own cynical attempt to boycott her Master's degree graduation, only to find herself sobbing uncontrollably the second the academic robe hit her shoulders. It is an unflinching look at how structure, community presence, and intentional focus wrap our hearts around realities we try desperately to ignore. Whether you are mourning a saint, cutting ties with a scumbag, or celebrating a win you don't think you deserve, this episode proves that rituals change absolutely nothing out in the physical world, but they change absolutely everything inside of us.#FilthyHope #GritWithGrace #FaithNoFilter #GriefJourney #ThePowerOfRitual #HonestConversations #UnresolvedGrief #Funerals #SayingGoodbye #CommunityConnection

In November 2022, Oregon voters narrowly passed a gun control measure that bans high-capacity gun magazines and requires safety training, completed background checks and permits for firearm purchases. Measure 114 awaits a decision by the Oregon Supreme Court and if it’s upheld, the soonest it could take effect is January 2028.   The prospect of gun control restrictions nonetheless fueled a sharp demand in gun purchases in Oregon leading up to and following the Measure 114 referendum. That’s according to a new study by researchers from Oregon State University, the University of Oregon and the National Bureau of Economic Research.    Using background checks as a proxy for firearm purchases, the researchers found that background checks spiked nearly 160% in the two months after the passage of Measure 114. The researchers said the measure led to 63,000 more background checks in Oregon between October 2022 and March 2024 than would have otherwise been expected during this time.    Katie Bollman, an assistant professor in economics at OSU, joins us for more details.

"It's a difficult thing, to separate legend from story from memory from fact." Folklore and legend are critical components to any culture, passing tidbits of local history and lessons learned through generations. The idea of the folk hero in particular plays an important role in creating this legacy, rooted in the idea of benevolence and a direct connection to the people themselves. As a child, author Isaac Fitzgerald was always captivated by the tales of Johnny Appleseed, drawn in by family ties to the legend. Spurred on by his father's larger-than-life stories and a shared restlessness to leave home and discover what lies beyond, Fitzgerald found himself compelled to go on a new adventure. In American Rambler: Walking the Trail of Johnny Appleseed, Fitzgerald sets out on a particularly ambitious hike: walk from Massachusetts to Indiana, following Appleseed's path and turning a childhood fascination into a year-long personal journey. American Rambler recounts both the tangible and emotional trails Fitzgerald uncovered along the way, littered with explorations of loss and grief, ritual and faith. Fitzgerald invites readers to meander beside him–  stopping everywhere from grimy gas-station bathrooms to scenic apple picking destinations– with reflection, humor, and humility. Blending memoir, history, and travelogue through the American heartland, American Rambler presents a welcome step away from the breakneck pace of modern life and a return to the roots of connection. Isaac Fitzgerald is the New York Times bestselling author of Dirtbag, Massachusetts. He is also the author of the bestselling children's book How to Be a Pirate as well as the co-author of Pen & Ink: Tattoos and the Stories Behind Them and Knives & Ink: Chefs and the Stories Behind Their Tattoos (winner of an IACP Award). He appears frequently on The Today Show, and his writing has appeared in The New York Times, The Atlantic, Esquire, GQ, The Guardian, The Best American Nonrequired Reading, and numerous other publications. He lives with his wife on the North Fork of Long Island. Jon Mooallem is the author of three books, Wild Ones, This is Chance! and the essay collection Serious Face. He lives on Bainbridge Island.

After nearly five decades as a beloved Texas icon, Taco Cabana is officially taking its signature breakfast tacos and Mexican-inspired menu across state lines.Spurred by a recent acquisition and a newly designed, smaller-footprint prototype optimized for modern off-premise dining and delivery, the 140-unit chain is launching its first major out-of-state franchise expansion. By strategically targeting contiguous states like Oklahoma, Louisiana and Arkansas, the brand aims to leverage built-in recognition from former Texans while introducing new markets to its unique hybrid of quick-service convenience and fast-casual culinary variety.In this episode of the Restaurant Operator Podcast, host Mandy Detwiler chats with Taco Cabana's director of franchise sales and development, John Ramsay, about the brand's growth and how it is faring in the fast casual market."Oklahoma Louisiana, and Arkansas are the top three" the brand is growing into, Ramsay said. "I think a couple of things they have in common. Number one is that there's a large percentage of former Texans who have moved into those states. So we already have sort of a built-in marketplace and a market audience. In fact, we get solicitations all the time from people who used to live in Texas that now live in one of these other states saying, please come and put one here in my hometown."So I would say that's really number one is that having that sort of built in base. I think the other important piece is the menu itself. Taco Cabana, like a lot of Mexican chains that started in Texas have very much, people call it Tex-Mex. Really what it is is it's Mexican inspired food that's more common within the state of Texas. So as you look at those contiguous states, they also have various, their style of Mexican food is very similar to what you would find in Texas."To learn more about Taco Cabana's growth and operations, listen to the podcast in its entirety.

Every little girl in America seems to be enamored with unicorns. Dragons have long been viewed as the scariest of creatures and are seen throughout our culture, but did they ever actually exist?On today's podcast, Pastor Derek and Pastor Jackie talk through the history of unicorns and dragons to see where they came from and how various cultures view them. From there, we look at what the Bible has to say and believe it or not, “unicorn” is used 11 times in the Bible! (KJV) Finally, we give our verdict on whether or not we believe that either of these creatures existed.

In this electric, late-night episode of The Cooligans After Dark, Christian Polanco and Alexis Guerreros fire up the microphones live from Miami to unpack a chaotic day of World Cup quarterfinal action. The guys kick off with Argentina's high-stakes 3-1 victory over Switzerland, a match far tighter than the final scoreline suggests. They dive headfirst into the massive refereeing controversy surrounding Breel Embolo's game-altering second yellow card for simulation. Spurred by the new "mistaken identity" VAR protocol, the hosts engage in a fierce debate over whether video review belongs anywhere near yellow cards, while praising a clutch, world-class brace from Julián Álvarez that saved an exhausted, human-looking Lionel Messi against a disciplined Swiss squad anchored by a legendary Granit Xhaka. The theater only intensifies as the guys shift focus to the watch party tour's very first extra-time thriller: England's dramatic 2-1 triumph over Norway. Alexis and Christian tackle a double dose of tournament controversy, starting with Erling Haaland's disallowed go-ahead goal that was nullified by a highly questionable, soft defensive flop. They then dissect Jude Bellingham's crucial equalizer, which was clouded by allegations that a Norwegian goal kick struck an overhead skycam cable—a claim the players explicitly pointed out but FIFA's advanced ball sensors conveniently denied. To close out the night, the hosts look down the bracket to preview the titanic semifinal matchups ahead. Christian and Alexis trade tactical blueprints and drop official score predictions for the highly anticipated Spain vs. France heavyweight bout. Finally, they map out the psychological warfare and massive historical narratives set to collide when the Three Lions meet Argentina with a spot in the World Cup Final on the line.

If your medical practice noticed a sudden drop or a sudden surge in website traffic, phone calls, or patient inquiries over the last two weeks, you aren't imagining things. On June 2, 2026, Google officially wrapped up its massive May 2026 core algorithm update.In this episode, Jennifer and Corey discuss the rapidly changing landscape of organic SEO. Spurred by the pressure to feed its booming AI ecosystem, Google rolled out this latest core update just 43 days after its previous one—completely rewriting the rules on how healthcare sites rank. We break down what this update means for your online visibility and share the exact framework you need to diagnose your site's performance without hitting the panic button.Key Takeaways:Accelerated AI Cadence: Google is rapidly rebuilding its core ranking engine to feed its AI features (which now boast over a billion monthly users), narrowing the gap between major algorithm shifts to mere weeks.The Slop Penalty: This update aggressively targets thin, overly optimized, "SEO-first" content—specifically 500-word, low-tier AI articles generated without certified healthcare or provider oversight.The Golden Rule (Don't Panic): Fluctuations and bugs in reporting data are typical right after a rollout. Avoid making structural changes, rewriting pages, or deleting content while the algorithm is still settling.Double Down on E-A-T: Long-term organic success requires robust, up-to-date provider bio pages, detailed real-world patient Q&As, and clear medical bylines signed off by actual providers or clinical staff.

In this raw and transparent episode of SWAT Radio, Brad, Jonathan, and David dive into Philippians 1 and 2 to challenge the dangers of compartmentalized Christianity and explore what it truly means for our orthopraxy to match our orthodoxy. Spurred by the moving themes of the film A Great Awakening, the guys unpack the gritty realities of fatherhood, legacy, and the beauty of being broken men under repair by a sovereign God. Moving from lighthearted banter about golf tournaments to deep reflections on standing firm in one spirit, this conversation strips away religious pretense. It serves as a powerful reminder that an authentic faith isn't about flawless performance—it's about an unscripted, everyday life transformed by the grace of the Gospel.

Welcome to June, it's Pride Month! We encourage our listeners to RSVP to Citizen Action's Annual Meeting this Saturday, at 10am. Robert gives us the latest tick report amid national concern about tick-borne illnesses. Spurred by global warming, tick activity continues to surge in Wisconsin while the national media descends on Martha Vineyard as the island is beset by ticks, and victims are forced to avoid red meat. Trump visits Western Wisconsin, the home of Wisconsin's pivotal Congressional District 3. Is he an anchor on embattled MAGA incumbent Derrick Van Orden and other Republicans on the ballot or does Trump know how to generate a massive turnout of MAGA voters? We dive into a critically important Wisconsin Health Assessment, a periodic report mandated by the State Legislature.Rarely do such radical findings come from an official state government report. This year's report finds that a stunning 1 in 10 Wisconsinites skipped needed health care due to cost. The report also contains shocking revelations on low wages, the growing unaffordability of housing, massive under investment in public education (especially in low income BIPOC majority schools), and a chronic under investment in public health. Will the next legislature act on this searing indictment of status quo policies or kick the can down the road? MASH union president Peter Rickman joins us to discuss the state health assessment, building worker power, and to update us on newly scheduled $20 Wage Town Halls in Fond du Lac, Madison, Milwaukee, Sheboygan, and more locations. We close with news that Boss Vos vows to try again on the failed surplus budget deal. With Governor Evers continuing to complain about the failure of the first effort, will they get another kick at the cat?

Hot off a controversial appearance in the New York Times opinion page, the gang discusses the concept of "microlooting." Spurred on by comments made by podcasters Nadja Spiegelman and Jia Tolentino, as well as political streamer Hasan Piker, the crew wonders whether there's any case in which "microlooting" can be justified, or if it's actually just hurting leftist causes. Then they turn to the SPLC's recent indictment over accusations that paying informants within targeted hate groups actually counts as funding these hate groups — and, in doing so, constitutes fraud. Compelling case, or obvious reach?Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:23:53 - Microlooting00:48:27 - SPLC Indicted01:07:32 - Emails01:12:09 - Wrap-up Hosted on Acast.

Romanticism or misogyny? During the tectonic time of “Me Too” The Splendid Bohemians tackled the subjects of two artists inextricably linked to their romantic images: Sir Tom Jones and Charles Aznavour - both hugely popular and successful in their own times, but, like many with complicated artistic careers, coming under reexamination.Spurred by a demand made to my wife to “shut off that stuff”  by two disgruntled women while she was enjoying a Tom Jones CD, Bill and Rich set out to dissect the difference between romance and chauvinism when considering these cherished icons during this retributive age of Epstein, Trump, Cosby, Weinstein, et al. Seems like a good time to replay this nugget from 2016. The list of predators is long and keeps growing, as evidenced by the recent resignation of democratic Gubernatorial hopeful, Eric Swallwell. So, we batted around the evergreen question of “can you hate the artist, but still love the art?” We ended up with no answers, just more questions.

In this episode, William Lyon breaks down the subtle details that make the difference, including one overlooked sound that can completely change the outcome of a hunt. This is not surface-level advice. It's decades of experience, hard lessons, and real stories from the woods. If you've ever had a gobbler stall just out of range… this one matters. In this episode, we cover: Why gobblers hang up—and what they're actually doing The role of drumming and why it can pull birds in when calling won't When to call, when to stay quiet, and how to use curiosity against a gobbler How turkeys pinpoint your exact location (and how that affects your setup) The patience factor: why sitting longer kills more birds How to choose the right setup for stationary hunts Using terrain, shadows, and conditions to your advantage Wind, weather, and how they impact turkey movement and sound Roosting strategies and how to plan your next morning hunt Midday loafing areas and where birds go when they disappear Real-world stories (including one of the wildest doubles you'll ever hear) Lessons learned from decades of turkey hunting experience If you're serious about becoming a better turkey hunter, this episode will change how you think about calling—and when not to call.

Does every child in Canada truly have a right to an education? In this powerful episode on The Gritty Nurse with Host Amie Archibald-Varley, she sits down with Matthew Flagler and Richard Hackett to discuss the systemic failures within Canada's healthcare and education systems. Spurred by the personal struggle to get adequate support for children with learning disabilities, Richard and Matthew are leading a movement to hold the government accountable. They dive deep into why the current governments education system is failing families, the dangerous creep of privatization in healthcare, and the growing class divide in access to essential services. Most importantly, they discuss their House of Commons petition aimed at making quality education a constitutionally protected right for every child, regardless of their needs. In this episode, we cover: The personal toll of navigating a broken special education system. Why the "right to education" is currently a legal grey area in Canada. The link between public healthcare, education, and social equity. How community advocacy can drive real legislative change. Take Action: Matthew and Richard are calling on all Canadians to support Petition e-6982. This is a crucial step toward ensuring no child is left behind by the system. ✍️ Sign the Petition Here: https://www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en/Petition/Details?Petition=e-6982 Read more about the story on CBC News: Father starts petition to make education a constitutional right How to Find Richard and Matthew on Tiktok: @author_matthewflagler @unstoppableAnonymous Matthew's Book: Held to the fire: https://www.indigo.ca/en-ca/books/matthew-flagler/ Takeaways Matthew has a background in firefighting and has published a book on a tragic fire. Richard started a petition due to his son's long wait for occupational therapy. The healthcare system in Canada is facing significant underfunding and challenges. Public healthcare and education should be protected as basic human rights. Privatization of healthcare has historically not worked and leads to inequities. Advocacy is crucial for ensuring accountability in public services. Community action can drive significant change in healthcare and education. Class struggles are central to the conversation about access to services. Teachers and healthcare workers deserve better wages and support. The petition aims to ensure that healthcare and education are constitutionally protected rights.

Steiny & Guru get into what went down that cost people, dearly... Spurred on by the events the boys lived through and heard about.

For hundreds of years, Rwanda's Hutu and Tutsi groups had lived in relative harmony. But the arrival of European colonists enforced and exaggerated the differences between them, until, from the mid-twentieth century, resentment began to boil over. By 1994, the two groups were sworn enemies. Over 100 days, violence engulfed the country, as members of the Hutu majority worked systematically to exterminate the Tutsi. Spurred on by government and military officials, neighbour turned against neighbour, friend against friend, until hundreds of thousands lay dead.   But what precipitated this senseless mass killing? Why were so many ordinary people willing to participate? And what responsibility does the international community bear for the bloodshed? This is a Short History Of the Rwandan Genocide.

Today's episode aims to answer a simple question: does “win on Sunday, sell on Monday” still apply in today's automotive world? === Visit http://JasonSentMe.com to get a Hagerty Guaranteed Value (TM) collector-car insurance quote!  === Spurred by guest appearances of Mercedes-Benz CLK DTM and CLK63 AMG Black Series, Jason and Derek explore all angles of the motorsport-to-road car pipeline in this episode. From the NASCAR Camry to the Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR, many race series manufactures feature cars that resemble road car counterparts but end up being entirely different under the skin. Other times, homologation road cars like the E30 BMW M3, Subaru WRX STI, or Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution end up being very similar to what consumers can go buy off the showroom floor.  But at the end of the day, what part of a marque's motorsports marketing inspires an enthusiast enough to become a consumer of the product? Is racing ever enough? Find out more on this week's episode of The Carmudgeon Show. (P.S - We'll be taking a couple of weeks off due to scheduling conflicts. See you at the beginning of March!)

Spurred by a suite of executive orders and investments from the federal government, new nuclear reactors are coming soon. Or the announcements are at least.  The advanced nuclear sector has found itself in the spotlight as companies race to acquire licenses and permits aimed at achieving "criticality.” But what do these milestones signify? And is hitting the deadlines even feasible? In this episode, Shayle talks to Katy Huff,  former assistant secretary for nuclear energy at the Department of Energy and current associate professor at the University of Illinois. They unpack the wave of new nuclear announcements, the realities of navigating an arcane regulatory gauntlet, and what Katy considers a realistic timeline for new nuclear deployment. Shayle and Katy cover topics like: The NRC's “murky” pre-application process The differences between various licensing pathways Why Katy views the DOE's goal to have three reactors reach criticality by July 4th as “an extremely aggressive milestone” Upcoming revised guidance on nuclear radiation dose rates The challenges facing the DOE amidst a staff shortage Katy's assessment of a feasible timeline for getting new reactors operational Why Katy doesn't think microreactors are economically scalable…yet Catalyst: The US nuclear groundswell Open Circuit: Inside Meta's massive nuclear push Latitude Media: The self-inflicted hurdles facing Trump's nuclear orders Latitude Media: The Department of Energy's 2026 playbook⁠ Credits: Hosted by Shayle Kann.

Spurred by the government's "Shopping in China" initiative and other consumption-supporting measures, customs authorities in top-tier cities reported a strong increase in tax refund volumes in 2025 and forecast further growth this year.在政府“中国购物”倡议及其他消费扶持措施的推动下，2025年一线城市海关退税量显著增长，并预测今年将持续攀升。According to Guangzhou Customs, Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport Customs in Guangdong province processed more than 50,000 departure tax-refund applications from overseas travelers in 2025, with the total value of refund claims exceeding 496 million yuan ($71.3 million).据广州海关统计，2025年广东省广州白云国际机场海关为出境旅客办理退税申请逾5万笔，退税金额累计超过4.96亿元人民币（合7130万美元）。The figures show year-on-year increases of 470 percent in the number of applications and 60 percent in the total refund amount.数据显示，申请数量同比增长470%，退税总额同比增长60%。At the tax refund counter of Terminal 1 at the Guangzhou airport, French traveler Mu Voungvui was recently seen completing his tax refund procedures. Holding up his refund slip, he said his trip to China had been highly rewarding.在广州白云机场1号航站楼的退税柜台前，近日有法国游客穆·旺维（Mu Voungvui）正在办理退税手续。他举起退税单表示，此次中国之行收获颇丰。"I bought a DJI Osmo Pocket 3 gimbal camera and the tax-refund process was very convenient," he said, adding that with a refund rate of 11 percent, he received 414.5 yuan as the tax refund.他表示：“我购买了DJI Osmo Pocket 3稳定器相机，退税流程非常便捷。”并补充道以11%的退税率计算，最终获得了414.5元人民币的退税款。Feng Ruilin, an official at Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport Customs, said popular tax-refund purchases range from clothing, handbags and jewelry, to technology products such as small drones, sports cameras and smartphones.广州白云国际机场海关官员冯瑞琳（音译）表示，热门退税商品涵盖服装、手袋、珠宝首饰等，以及小型无人机、运动相机和智能手机等科技产品。The growth in departure tax-refunds comes amid broader efforts to upgrade China's consumption environment. Launched in April 2025, the "Shopping in China" initiative aims to create a more internationally friendly consumption landscape and enhance the country's appeal as a global consumption hub through measures such as streamlined visa procedures and improved departure tax-refund arrangements.离境退税业务的增长，正值中国全面提升消费环境之际。自2025年4月启动的“中国购物”计划，旨在通过简化签证手续、完善离境退税机制等措施，打造更具国际友善度的消费环境，增强中国作为全球消费枢纽的吸引力。Zhu Mingkuang, an official with the passenger inspection unit at Shanghai Pudong International Airport Customs, said that the continued optimization of departure tax-refund policies and upgrades to related services have played a key role in boosting inbound consumption.上海浦东国际机场海关旅客查验科官员朱明光（音译）表示，离境退税政策的持续优化和相关服务的升级，对促进入境消费起到了关键作用。Zhu noted that the reduction of the minimum purchase threshold from 500 yuan to 200 yuan in April last year has encouraged more foreign travelers to shop and claim tax refunds, leading to a sharp rise in business volumes.朱明光（音译）指出，去年4月将最低消费门槛从500元降至200元后，吸引更多外国游客购物并申请退税，导致业务量大幅增长。"Since October 2025, the volume of departure tax-refund transactions at Shanghai Pudong International Airport has consistently exceeded 1,000 applications per day on average," he said, adding that the momentum has continued into January of this year.自2025年10月以来，上海浦东国际机场离境退税业务量日均处理量持续保持在1000笔以上，这一势头延续至今年1月。Last year, Shanghai Customs verified 222,000 departure tax-refund items, soaring 130 percent year-on-year and accounting for half of the national total.去年，上海海关核验出境退税物品达22.2万件，同比增长130%，占全国总量的半数。Beyond improvements in tax-refund processing, local governments have also moved to strengthen supporting retail infrastructure. In Shanghai, the municipal government has guided the transformation and launch of downtown duty-free stores, injecting new momentum into the city's development as an international consumption hub and its tourism economy.除加快退税办理速度外，各地政府还着力完善零售配套设施。上海市通过引导市中心免税店转型升级，为打造国际消费中心城市和旅游经济注入新动能。In the Chinese capital, Beijing Customs verified a total of 64,000 departure tax-refund applications, marking a year-on-year increase of 317 percent in 2025.在首都北京，海关共核验出境退税申请6.4万份，2025年同比增幅达317%。The total value of refund claims reached 1.35 billion yuan, up 74 percent year-on-year and surpassing 1 billion yuan for the first time since the departure tax-refund policy was introduced a decade ago.退税申请总额达到13.5亿元，同比增长74%，这是自十年前实施离境退税政策以来首次突破10亿元大关。Pan Yuting, an official with the passenger inspection unit at Beijing Capital International Airport Customs, said that at the beginning of 2025, about 40 departure tax-refund applications were typically processed during a single day at Terminal 3. That figure rose to around 170 per day in mid-January of this year, representing a substantial increase compared with the same period last year.北京首都国际机场海关旅客查验科官员潘玉婷（音译）表示，2025年初，航站楼3号航站楼单日平均处理约40份离境退税申请。今年1月中旬，该数字已攀升至每日约170份，较去年同期显著增长。After purchasing a Louis Vuitton handbag valued at 19,820 yuan in Beijing and applying for a tax refund of 2,180 yuan on Jan 4 at Terminal 3 of Beijing Capital International Airport, Canadian traveler Davis Jordan said China's appeal to foreign visitors will continue to grow, as "tax-refund and duty-free services are highly cost-effective and make shopping here both attractive and worthwhile".加拿大游客戴维斯·乔丹（Davis Jordan）1月4日在北京首都国际机场3号航站楼购买了价值19820元的路易威登手袋，并申请退税2180元。他表示，中国的吸引力将持续增强，因为“退税和免税服务性价比极高，让购物既充满吸引力又物有所值”。threshold/ˈθreʃ.hoʊld/n.门槛gimbal/ˈɡɪm.bəl/n.万向吊架，恒平框架，常平架框

About the Guest(s): Dr. Kristin Hieshetter is the host of the "Functional Health Radio" podcast. Dr. Kristen is an expert in holistic health practices and functional medicine, bringing years of experience in treating patients with a focus on integrative approaches. Her keen interest lies in enabling individuals to reach optimal health through informed decisions and lifestyle changes. Dr. Kristen is known for her engaging discussions on contemporary health topics, as well as her dedication to improving public health awareness internationally. Episode Summary: In this episode of "Functional Health Radio," Dr. Kristin Hieshetter delves into the intriguing topic of Ivermectin, exploring its potential use beyond its historical application as an anti-parasitic medication. Spurred by questions from her patients, Dr. Kristen investigates whether Ivermectin could be effectively repurposed for cancer treatment, a subject gaining them significant attention and research interest in recent years. She discusses how Ivermectin has a history of effectiveness in treating parasitic infections, but also reveals new and promising research that suggests its potential role in oncology. The episode highlights Dr. Kristen's detailed exploration of scientific studies on Ivermectin's effect on various cancer types, including bladder cancer, esophageal cancer, pancreatic cancer, and triple-negative breast cancer. Dr. Kristen refers to multiple research articles and findings, emphasizing Ivermectin's mechanism of action, which includes inducing oxidative stress and DNA damage in cancer cells. Throughout the discussion, she provides a compelling narrative about the potential paradigm shifts in cancer treatment and urges listeners to consider these findings, especially if they or their loved ones are affected by these conditions. Key Takeaways: Ivermectin, originally discovered as an anti-parasitic drug, is being researched for its potential use in cancer treatment, thanks to its ability to induce cancer cell death. Recent studies have shown that Ivermectin may enhance the efficacy of existing chemotherapy treatments, particularly for difficult-to-treat cancers like pancreatic and triple-negative breast cancer. Ivermectin has demonstrated the ability to selectively target and cause apoptosis in cancer cells without harming normal cells. While historical usage of Ivermectin in human treatments is well-established, ongoing research into its applications in oncology could mark a significant shift in therapeutic strategies. Despite its promising potential, listeners are cautioned about the importance of consulting medical professionals before considering any new treatments. Notable Quotes: "Ivermectin is much more than a horse dewormer; it's cheap, effective, and has been widely used for human treatment since 1987." "This study primarily looked at ivermectin, and it wasn't a combination therapy. It was just ivermectin, showing very good results against bladder cancer." "Pancreatic cancer is characterized by a really high death rate and very poor prognosis, making ivermectin's potential effects particularly exciting." "You've got this modulated electrohyperthermia, you can exploit the difference in the electromagnetic field and bioelectrical properties between cancer cells and regular tissues." "Ivermectin exerts anti-cancer effects by activating the same pathways it targets in parasites, which is an extraordinary finding." Resources: PubMed: A source of numerous articles Dr. Kristin referenced in her research on Ivermectin and its potential in cancer treatment PubMed. World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines: Inclusion of Ivermectin as an essential anti-parasitic treatment. YouTube Channel: Dr. Kristin may reference visual media for additional context on various topics discussed in the podcast. Dr. Kristin Hieshetter shares her insights and encourages listeners to explore these discussions further with their healthcare providers.

From Restraint to Ruin - The Birth of the Bombing WarAt the dawn of World War II in 1939, a fragile consensus existed among the warring powers. Spurred by an appeal from President Roosevelt, leaders like Neville Chamberlain and even Hitler gave public undertakings to abstain from the horror of aerial attacks on civilians. There was a genuine, if naïve, belief that the looming conflict could be "humanised," and that the bomber would be restricted to purely military targets.But how did this initial restraint crumble into the devastating strategic bombing campaigns that would define the war? In this episode, we delve into Richard Overy's "The Bombing War" to explore the complex factors that shaped Britain's approach to aerial warfare in the crucial early years of 1939-1942.Join us as we uncover the story of a nation caught between its self-image as a "civilised" power and the brutal necessities of total war. We'll examine why RAF Bomber Command was initially held back, not just by political and legal niceties, but by its own operational unreadiness. Discover how the unique, independent institutional culture of Bomber Command—a force designed solely to attack—fostered a doctrine that would eventually target the enemy's home front, leading to the destruction of cities like Hamburg, Cologne, and Dresden under the infamous command of Sir Arthur "Bomber" Harris.If you liked this episode, listen to: https://shows.acast.com/explaininghistory/episodes/the-politics-of-rearmament-in-britain-1936Go Deeper: Visit our website at www.explaininghistory.org for articles and detailed explorations of the topics discussed.▸ Join the Conversation: Our community of history enthusiasts discusses episodes, shares ideas, and continues the conversation.

In November 1775, as tensions between the British Empire and its rebellious colonies continued to escalate, Virginia's royal governor made a radical—and to some, terrifying—proclamation: Any enslaved person who fled a revolutionary enslaver and joined the British Army would gain their freedom. Known to history as Dunmore's Proclamation, this single decree changed the course of the American Revolution in the South. It offered a lifeline to thousands of enslaved men, women, and their families, ignited fierce debates about loyalty and liberty, and revealed deep contradictions at the heart of a revolution that claimed to fight for freedom. In honor of the 250th anniversary of Lord Dunmore's Proclamation, we're taking a deeper look at the man behind it: John Murray, Fourth Earl of Dunmore, and at the Revolution in Virginia, which he helped fuel. Our guide for this exploration is Andrew Lawler, an award-winning journalist and author of A Perfect Frenzy: A Royal Governor, His Black Allies, and the Crisis that Spurred the American Revolution.

7. The Battle for Logan's Legacy in McGuffey's Reader Professor Robert G. Parkinson, Heart of American Darkness: Bewilderment and Horror on the Early Frontier This section explores the political battle spurred by Logan's Lament. Jefferson used the lament in Notes on the State of Virginia to argue for American superiority against European claims of degeneracy, elevating Logan while condemning Michael Cresap. This triggered a ferocious counter-crusade by Luther Martin, an attorney married into the Cresap family, who defended the Cresaps as heroes and challenged Jefferson's facts. Nevertheless, the lament found widespread cultural traction. Due to its short, poignant nature, Logan's Lament was memorized by American schoolchildren for decades, notably through the McGuffey Readers, reinforcing the theme of the "vanishing Indian."

Georges Dyer is the Co-Founder and Executive Director of the Intentional Endowments Network (IEN), a non-profit, peer-learning network that helps endowed institutions make their endowments socially responsible. Of the 3,500 - 4,000 colleges and universities in America, some 2,000 have endowments that are valued at ~$900 billion in aggregate. These academic institutions -- as well as asset management firms, cultural institutions, museums, faith-based organizations, non-profit foundations, and others -- also have a similar value in retirement funds... which while highly regulated, are also being directed towards socially responsible and profitable investments.Georges explains the genesis of IEN. Spurred by the president of Hampshire College, Jonathan Lash, IEN was originally formed to help institutions divest from fossil-fueled industries that were counter to their climate action plans. Student and faculty concerns really started to press on endowment portfolios in 2013. Today, IEN works with some 250 endowments. Ted asks the bottom line question early: How are these endowments performing? Are they losing money, or are they on par, or are they ahead? Georges explains that on balance, they are at par or better.IEN provides a number of tools and resources for its members.. from virtual and in-person "convenings," to benchmarking tools, case studies, and more. The network provides insights and negative screening tools to weed out investments that run counter to an institution's mission and goals, while highlighting positive investment opportunities to reduce risk and steer institutions towards profitable investments in the green economy. The conversation shifts to case studies of "platinum" members: Georges discusses leading institutions including the University of California system and Arizona State University. He discusses how some institutions have found means to invest in their own facilities... for instance solar projects and facility upgrades that make dollars and cents while addressing inequality and other social issues. Georges sites the Rockefeller Brothers Fund as a shining example. Born of oil and gas and fossil fuels, Rockefeller has been a leading example of an organization whose Standard Oil roots are now focused on "intentional investments" with highly positive performance. For more on IEN and its mission and results, check out Georges' new podcast, "The Future of Finance."

In a world increasingly dominated by visual and electronic noise, Robert Waxler and David Beckman's You Say, I Say: Staying Alive with Literature, Language, and Friendship (Rivertown Books, 2025) captures the enduring power of literature-not to resolve the great questions of human existence, but to help us explore those questions in ways that are eye-opening, life-changing, and profound. In September, 1962, two 18-year-old freshmen at Brown University named Bob Waxler and David Beckman first crossed paths. They quickly discovered they had a lot in common, especially an abiding fascination with language, literature, and the life of art. Four years later, as college seniors, they collaborated on a small book of poems, which brought them a flurry of attention, then faded into memory as the two friends began separate life journeys-Bob becoming a professor of literature at a Massachusetts college, David working as an advertising and promotion writer in New York with sidelines as a poet, playwright, and actor. In 2014, an article in the Brown alumni journal rekindled their connection. It sparked an exchange of emails that gradually blossomed into this book-an extended dialogue between two old friends on poetry, life, the passage of time, and the power of the written word. In You Say, I Say, Waxler and Beckman trade observations, opinions, questions, and arguments about the ways in which literature transforms, challenges, disturbs, and inspires us. Spurred by lifetimes largely dedicated to "deep reading," they debate the meaning and value of works ranging from Dante's Inferno and Shakespeare's King Lear to Tolstoy's Death of Ivan Ilych; the poems of Wordsworth, Blake, Coleridge, and Keats; and the works of T.S. Eliot, Kafka, Beckett and Joyce. They often uncover new and surprising facets of classic works in the glare of post-modern experience. And they even exchange a couple of new poems-their own work-triggering reflections on the creative process and its many unexpected twists. Along the way, Waxler and Beckman delve into questions that have haunted generations of readers and critics. And they reveal, directly and indirectly, how encounters with literature have shaped their intellects and their lives.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Josephine Butler, a prominent minister’s wife, found herself campaigning for the rights of women accused (often unjustly) of being “ladies of the night,” those seen in society as the “least desirables.” Spurred on by her deep faith in God, she fought for years against the British Contagious Diseases Acts of the 1860s, which subjected women to cruel and invasive “medical” exams. In 1883, during the parliamentary debate over a bill to repeal the Acts, she joined women in Westminster to pray. She was moved by the sight of the “most ragged and miserable women from the slums” alongside “ladies of high rank,” all weeping and asking God for protection of the vulnerable. To their joy, the bill passed. Josephine’s call to act justly echoes the words of the prophet Jeremiah, who delivered God’s message to evil kings. Jeremiah said, “Do what is just and right. Rescue from the hand of the oppressor the one who has been robbed.” And do “no wrong or violence to the foreigner, the fatherless or the widow” (Jeremiah 22:3). God wanted to shield those who couldn’t defend themselves against the powerful. God can spur us to action too, helping us to discern inequalities and to speak and take measures against them. He who hates abuse empowers us to uphold justice and defend the weak.

Jon Grinspan has done something remarkable: in his new book, Wide Awake, he tells a thoroughly researched and brilliantly crafted story that may change your understanding of the origins of the American Civil War. In this episode, Jon joins us for a conversation about the Wide Awakes, the anti-slavery youth movement that played an instrumental role in electing Abraham Lincoln in 1860 and took part in some of the first acts of violence between pro and anti-slavery Americans in 1861. Jon also discusses the ways that the past and present interact in powerful ways, and how politics can evolve, step-by-step, into violence.   To quote Jon's recent article in The Smithsonian: “The most consequential political organization in American history….began when a few working-class kids designed a costume, which grew into a movement and ultimately an army. And it ended with a civil war.”   Dr. Jon Grinspan is a curator of political and military history at the National Museum of American History. His book Wide Awake: The Forgotten Force that Elected Lincoln and Spurred the Civil War was released on May 14, 2024 from Bloomsbury Press.

As the American Revolution broke out in New England in the spring of 1775, dramatic events unfolded in Virginia that proved every bit as decisive as the battles of Lexington and Concord and Bunker Hill in uniting the colonies against Britain. Virginia, the largest, wealthiest, and most populous province in British North America, was led by Lord Dunmore, who counted George Washington as his close friend. But the Scottish earl lacked troops, so when patriots imperiled the capital of Williamsburg, he threatened to free and arm enslaved Africans—two of every five Virginians—to fight for the Crown. Virginia’s tobacco elite was reluctant to go to war with Britain but outraged at this threat to their human property. Dunmore fled the capital to build a stronghold in the colony’s largest city, the port of Norfolk. As enslaved people flocked to his camp, skirmishes broke out. “Lord Dunmore has commenced hostilities in Virginia,” wrote Thomas Jefferson. “It has raised our countrymen into a perfect frenzy.” With a patriot army marching on Norfolk, the royal governor freed those enslaved and sent them into battle against their former owners. In retribution, and with Jefferson’s encouragement, furious rebels burned Norfolk to the ground on January 1, 1776, blaming the crime on Dunmore. The port’s destruction and Dunmore’s emancipation prompted Virginia’s patriot leaders to urge the Continental Congress to split from Britain, breaking the deadlock among the colonies and leading to adoption of the Declaration of Independence. Days later, Dunmore and his Black allies withdrew from Virginia, but the legacy of their fight would lead, ultimately, to Abraham Lincoln’s 1863 Emancipation Proclamation. Chronicling these stunning and widely overlooked events in full for the first time is today’s guest, Andrew Lawler, author of A Perfect Frenzy: A Royal Governor, His Black Allies, and the Crisis that Spurred the American Revolution. He offers a new perspective on the American Revolution that reorients our understanding of its causes, highlights the radically different motivations between patriots in the North and South.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What ONE insight will either make or break your life as a Christian, or even as a non-Christian? If followed, it will help your marriage, parenting, business, job, friendships, politics, and most importantly, your eternity and your relationship with Jesus.Spurred by recent political and cultural events surrounding President Trump's first 100 days in office and comments made by Vice President J.D. Vance during a recent interview about protecting the interest of American citizens, Frank reminds listeners of the doctrine of "Ordered Loves". Originally articulated by Augustine over 1,600 years ago, this classic school of thought seems to be totally lost among our culture today. Tune in as Frank answers questions like:What is the Doctrine of "Ordered Loves", why is it so important, and how does it affect every single area of your life?What are the negative consequences when we get the order wrong?What did Jesus have to say about getting our priorities in the right order?What did Dr. Erwin Lutzer mean when he said "love can be evil"?Why did Vice President J. D. Vance recently cause a stir during an interview and what did Pope Leo XIV have to say about it?Why do so many people (including some who claim to be Christians) reject the idea of hierarchies and an ordered world?What's the difference between true and false compassion?Is character in politics only about personality?What are 15 things that the Trump Administration has done policy-wise during the first 100+ days in office that all Christians should support?What is the primary purpose of government?Is idolizing politics really a problem among conservative Christians?In his article, 'Why Progressive Christians Reject the Doctrine of "Ordered Loves"', Michael Clary writes, "Whether we like it or not, God's world is ordered and hierarchical. We can embrace it and enjoy the blessings of living according to God's design, or we can reject it and live a life of bitterness, like so many progressives."
