The David Alliance TDAgiantSlayer@Gmail.com  Garth Heckman   INTRO: Its a strange memory at best: A young man at church - my sister Renee's friend. HS stud athlete, great looking, always jumping in and out of bed with whomever he could. Now in his early 30's he came to church and Renee said one night after church… he better hurry up and figure out life - his hair is getting thinner and his glasses are getting thicker.  Funny, sad, but telling of his life falling apart. He lived his life by his emotions… his “URGES” if you will.    the phrase "a piece of work" originated as a high compliment before evolving over centuries into a sarcastic insult. The Literary Origin Its earliest famous usage comes from William Shakespeare's Hamlet (around 1601). In Act II, Scene 2, Prince Hamlet marvels at the creation of humanity: "What a piece of work is a man! How noble in reason, how infinite in faculty..."       He's a piece of work ISRAELS FIRST KING!  King Saul had it all but lost his call as a know it all only to fall.      Saul's ultimate downfall was not a lack of talent or opportunity; it was a fundamental flaw in his internal compass. Saul lived a life governed by feelings rather than character.     Have you ever met someone who lives by their emotions/feelings/the wind?     I used to say to my boys… “dad is in a bad mood today, so don't push it”. WHAT I WAS REALLY SAYING WAS DAD IS IN THE FLESH… LIVING BY HIS URGES!        Romans 8:5 Those who are dominated by the sinful nature think about sinful things, but those who are controlled by the Holy Spirit think about things that please the Spirit. 6 So letting your sinful nature control your mind leads to death. But letting the Spirit control your mind leads to life and peace. 7 For the sinful nature is always hostile to God. It never did obey God's laws, and it never will. 8 That's why those who are still under the control of their sinful nature can never please God. 9 But you are not controlled by your sinful nature. You are controlled by the Spirit if you have the Spirit of God living in you. (And remember that those who do not have the Spirit of Christ living in them do not belong to him at all.)         King Saul highlights critical decisions based on fear, jealousy, and impulsivity rather than steadfast character and obedience.     1 Samuel 13:8-12 (Impatience and Panic): When the prophet Samuel delayed his arrival and the Israelite army began to scatter out of fear, Saul panicked. Instead of trusting God and waiting, his anxiety drove him to unlawfully offer the burnt offering himself. Emotions make God's Word feel optional rather than authoritative. When feelings become the filter for truth, scripture gets reduced to "does this resonate with me" instead of "is this what God said." Jeremiah 17:9 warns that the heart is deceitful above all things — not evil in a cartoonish sense, but genuinely unreliable as a final authority. A Christian who only obeys when it feels right isn't actually submitted to Christ's lordship; they're submitted to their own emotional state, with God's Word as an occasional consultant rather than the authority.   Abortion, adultery, fornication, bitterness, gossip… emotions muddy up the water.   Anterior Midcingulate Cortex it behaves like a muscle, shrinking when underused and expanding physically when you engage in effortful, resistance-heavy activities.   Anatomy of the aMCC The Friction Requirement: The aMCC only grows when you face friction or internal resistance. Pushing through a workout you love doesn't trigger the same growth as forcing yourself to do a workout—or a task—that you genuinely do not want to do     The Battle of Sarx (The Flesh): Paul describes the "flesh" not merely as the physical body, but as the path of least resistance—primal drives, comfort-seeking, and self-preservation.    The body only wants to eat, sleep be tickled and have sex!      In Galatians 5:17, he notes: "For the flesh desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh. They are in conflict with each other." The subjective internal friction you feel when forcing yourself to do a hard task is the exact experiential battleground Paul describes. Mortification (Nekroo): In Colossians 3:5 and Romans 8:13, the New Testament commands believers to "put to death" or "mortify" lower impulses. This is not a passive event; it is an active, effortful override of natural inclination—the exact stimulus that drives aMCC hypertrophy.     How do you put to death the desires of the flesh? Lets put this misconception to bed for good! You do the opposite of the flesh according to scripture.       1 Samuel 14:24, 43-44 (Rashness and Impulsivity): Driven by the heat of battle, Saul made a foolish, impulsive oath binding his army to fast until evening. This emotional decision left his men exhausted and nearly resulted in the execution of his own son, Jonathan, who had unknowingly eaten honey.   Emotional highs get mistaken for spiritual maturity. Feeling moved during worship, feeling peace after a decision, feeling conviction in the moment — these can be real and God-given, but they can also be manufactured by music, social pressure, or just brain chemistry. The danger is building a faith that needs a constant emotional high to feel "real," which sets people up to crash hard when the feelings fade — and many walk away from faith entirely when the emotional experience stops delivering, mistaking the absence of feeling for the absence of God.   **When emotions supersede logic or common sense, they will typically supersede Gods best as well.     MANY/MOST times God will ask you to do something that goes against your emotions! 

Send us Fan MailWelcome to this episode of the Sexier than a Squirrel podcast, the podcast that brings you real-life dog training results, and sometimes human training ones too!This week, Lauren and Alice tackle one of the biggest frustrations in dog training: why does your dog seem to listen perfectly at home, then forget everything the moment you step outside? If you've ever wondered why a brilliant behaviour in your living room completely disappears on a walk - and how to bridge that gap - this episode is for you.Together, they explore why dogs don't automatically transfer skills from one environment to another, and why expecting them to do so can leave both ends of the lead feeling frustrated. You'll discover why training for the situation is so much more effective than trying to train in the situation, and how building the right foundations before heading into busy environments can completely change the outcome.Lauren and Alice also share the practical progression they use to help dogs succeed in the real world. From your living room and garden to quiet public spaces, secure fields, industrial estates and even car parks, they explain how carefully choosing your training environments gives your dog the chance to practise the right behaviours before distractions become overwhelming. You'll hear why these often-overlooked locations can be some of the very best places to build loose lead walking, engagement and confidence.Along the way, they discuss why taking a short break from traditional walks can sometimes be the kindest thing you can do, how to prevent unwanted rehearsal before it becomes a habit, and why setting your dog up to succeed is one of the fastest ways to build skills that genuinely stick. Whether you're raising a puppy, living with a reactive dog or simply dreaming of calmer, more connected walks, this episode is packed with practical ideas you can start using straight away.Ready to take those brilliant skills from your living room out into the real world? We'd love you to join us for our FREE Stress Free Walks Masterclass, where we'll show you exactly how to bridge that gap, build confidence in real-life environments, and set your dog up for success on walks.https://absolutedogs.me/stressfreewalksmasterclassSupport the showIf you're loving the podcast, you'll love our NEW Sexier than a Squirrel Dog Training Challenge even more!

Send us Fan MailWelcome to this episode of the Sexier than a Squirrel podcast, the podcast that brings you real-life dog training results, and sometimes human training ones too!This week, Lauren and Karen tackle one of the biggest frustrations dog owners face: why does the whole world seem more exciting than you? If you've ever felt like your dog would rather sniff a hedge, chase a squirrel or investigate a discarded sandwich wrapper than pay you any attention, you're definitely not alone.Together, they explore why the environment is so incredibly rewarding for our dogs. From irresistible smells and moving wildlife to the unpredictability of everyday life, you'll discover why dogs naturally find the world so hard to resist - and why it isn't because they're stubborn, disobedient or "don't care" about you. Lauren explains why trying to compete with a squirrel using a biscuit is rarely a winning strategy, and how building value in your relationship changes everything.Lauren and Karen also dive into the practical ways you can start becoming part of the adventure instead of competing with it. You'll hear why changing direction at the right moment, varying your rewards, using play and sniffing intentionally, and creating opportunities for connection can all make a huge difference when you're out and about. They also discuss why the walk starts long before you ever clip the lead on, how rehearsal shapes future behaviour, and why preventing unwanted habits is often far easier than trying to undo them later.The conversation also takes a thoughtful look at puppies and reactive dogs, exploring why building emotional skills before diving into busy environments can have a lasting impact. Karen shares Rupert's story and reflects on how one difficult experience changed not only her dog, but also the way she felt on every walk afterwards. Together, they discuss why feeling safe matters just as much for the person holding the lead as it does for the dog, and how thoughtful preparation can help both ends of the lead enjoy walking together again.Whether your dog is distracted by squirrels, other dogs, discarded food or simply the excitement of being outdoors, this episode will help you understand what's really going on - and why changing the way you think about walks can be the first step towards changing the walks themselves.Ready to discover the foundations of calmer, happier, more connected walks? We'd love you to join us for our FREE Stress Free Walks Masterclass, where we'll show you the games, strategies and mindset that make that possible.https://absolutedogs.me/stressfreewalksmasterclassSupport the showIf you're loving the podcast, you'll love our NEW Sexier than a Squirrel Dog Training Challenge even more!

Send us Fan MailWelcome to this episode of the Sexier than a Squirrel podcast, the podcast that brings you real-life dog training results, and sometimes human training ones too!This week, Karen turns interviewer as Lauren shares the story behind one of the toughest dogs she's ever lived with: Skittle. If you've ever wondered how a dog trainer could end up dreading walks, this episode is for you.Skittle is brilliantly clever, endlessly enthusiastic, and always five steps ahead. She could spot opportunities before Lauren even knew they existed, whether that was disappearing into a bog, rolling in fox poo, hunting wildlife or pulling so hard she left Lauren in pain. Together, Lauren and Karen unpack how those behaviours developed, why even experienced trainers can get caught out by rehearsal, and how life, grief and loving a dog "just a little bit too much" can sometimes blur the boundaries that dogs really need.Most importantly, Lauren shares how everything changed. Listen in as she talks through the two principles that transformed Skittle's walks: stopping rehearsal of the behaviours you don't want, and investing consistently in the behaviours you do. You'll hear why taking a break from normal walks can sometimes be the kindest decision, how relationship was the missing piece of the puzzle, and why building real-life skills mattered far more than chasing flashy training goals.Karen and Lauren also dive into the practical games that made the difference, including Skittle's Game, designed to flip the value from charging forwards to choosing connection instead. Along the way they explore the importance of starting walks well, preventing pulling before it begins, creating consistency between handlers, and using reinforcement strategically so food becomes a safety tool rather than a lifelong dependency. Whether your dog pulls, reacts, hunts or simply makes walks feel exhausting, the underlying principles remain the same.Ready to build walks you actually enjoy again? Keep an eye out for the Stress Free Walks Blueprint, where we guide you through the same games and strategies that transformed life with Skittle. In the meantime, grab your free spot at our Stress Free Walks Masterclassabsolutedogs.me/stressfreewalksmasterclass Support the showIf you're loving the podcast, you'll love our NEW Sexier than a Squirrel Dog Training Challenge even more!

Original Air Date: 08/08/26 Episode Number: 471Episode SummaryDan's son Caleb stopped in to pick up primer and ended up on the radio. He bought his first house -- a 1901-era fixer-upper -- and has spent the past several months dealing with cat smells in a crawl space, a squirrel that chewed through wiring, a dead possum under the floorboards, and the humbling experience of learning to cut in a straight line for the first time. The back half of the conversation covers paint choices, color coverage, the trades versus college, and what it's actually like to be six years into a career as an electrician.Timestamps[00:00] -- Meet Caleb the Guest[01:33] -- First Walkthrough Shock[03:04] -- Cat Smells and the Crawl Space[04:21] -- Enzyme Cleaner Fiasco[07:02] -- Sealing Odor Hotspots[09:26] -- Squirrel in the Ceiling[12:54] -- Dead Possum Discovery[15:22] -- First Time Painting Lessons[19:27] -- Color Choices and Coverage[22:13] -- Choosing the Wall Color[23:06] -- One Coat vs. Two[23:47] -- Ceiling Paint Lessons[25:50] -- Vanity Makeover Plan[27:16] -- DIY Confidence Tips[30:27] -- Trades Talk Break[31:09] -- Back in Studio[31:36] -- Living With Messes[34:05] -- Skipping College[37:24] -- Why Trades Work[40:39] -- Trade Life Humor[42:27] -- Wrap UpThe House [01:33]Built somewhere around 1901 -- "early 1901" on the listing, which Caleb says basically means they don't really know. Good news on move-in day: the electrical had already been updated, which mattered a lot to an electrician who knew exactly what that job would have cost him. The first thing visible when you walked through the door was a dining room painted in the brightest Barbie pink either of them had ever seen. Online listing photos had made it look like a warm sunset. In person it looked like Pepto-Bismol. That was the cosmetic problem. The real problem was the smell.Cat Smells and the Crawl Space [03:04]Three confirmed cats, possibly four, had been using the dirt crawl space as a litter box for three or four years. The crawl space starts at about two feet of clearance and drops to six to eight inches near the outer walls -- full belly-crawl territory. Caleb suited up with a respirator, goggles, a painter's suit, and a child's garden rake with four metal prongs that he says will remain in a place of honor in the basement indefinitely. It goes with him before the fishing poles if there's ever a fire.He went through the crawl space with enzymatic cleaner -- but the first jug he bought was formulated for outdoor use, and it didn't make a dent on the smell. He went back to the store, found a cat-specific enzymatic formula, and ended up buying about eight small spray bottles to fill a pressurized sprayer. That worked. A dehumidifier finished the job on the residual musty smell -- now when you open the basement door, it just smells like a normal old stone basement.On enzymatic cleaners: Use a formula specifically designed for the type of odor you're dealing with. Outdoor or general-purpose formulas may not be strong enough for concentrated pet waste. Cat-specific formulas are made for exactly this situation.On crawl space odors: Garden lime thrown down on a dirt crawl space can help neutralize pH and absorb lingering smells after the source is removed.Sealing Odor Hotspots [07:02]There was a small alcove near the stairs where foam gym flooring had soaked up years of cat urine. Caleb pulled it up and needed to seal the subfloor underneath before putting anything new down.The right product for this kind of situation is a shellac-based primer like BIN -- it seals odors and dries fast. Dan didn't have any shellac on hand, but he did have an old can of oil-based polyurethane that tested out fine, and for a clear coat application it worked well. The key advantage of a clear coat over a pigmented primer in odor situations: pigment can leave microscopic paths for odor to work through. A clear film seals more completely. Caleb put new subfloor down over the top and sealed that too.Squirrel in the Ceiling [09:26]The home inspection had flagged a squirrel living above the breezeway entry. The smell coming out of that space was serious enough that Dan wasn't sure it would ever clear up. Caleb got the squirrel out, sealed the entry point, and eventually pulled down the ceiling to assess the damage -- and found something more significant than anyone expected.The squirrel had chewed through the outer jacket on two sets of wires, exposing bare copper hot, neutral, and ground conductors. There was visible charring around the wiring. The breaker had tripped on one of Dan's early walkthroughs; at the time nobody knew why. The wiring had apparently been in this condition long enough that it's surprising no fire resulted.Caleb rewired the affected circuits and closed everything up properly. Point worth keeping: if animals get into a wall or ceiling space and stay there, wiring damage is a real possibility. It's not just a smell and mess problem. If you know or suspect animals have been living in a structural space, the wiring in that area is worth checking before you close it back up.Dead Possum Under the Floor [12:54]After the squirrel situation was resolved, the entry still smelled. As the weather warmed up, it got worse. Caleb pulled up a damaged section of subfloor near the breezeway door, expecting to find the water damage he'd spotted -- and found a dead, decomposing possum that had apparently gotten in through the same entry point as the squirrel and not gotten back out.He called his best friend, who arrived with a square shovel and leather gloves. The possum got a burial in the backyard. The subfloor was treated with enzymatic cleaner, the entry point sealed, and the floor rebuilt.Dan's contribution to the discovery call: asking whether Caleb was sure it was dead, and suggesting he try touching its eye to confirm. Caleb reported there was no eye. Dan agreed that was probably a reliable indicator.First Time Painting [15:22]Caleb had essentially never painted before -- Dan had handed him a brush with no paint on it as a kid and sent him into another room. This house was his real introduction.The biggest struggle was cutting in at the ceiling line without tape. He and his brother Andrew started by eye on the first room and the difference in their speed was immediate and obvious -- Andrew was moving at several times Caleb's pace, and Caleb's edges were rough. The key things Caleb took away from the experience:A good brush matters more than most people realize going in. People often reach for tiny brushes thinking more control, but a quality full-size brush is easier to work with, not harder. Practice builds speed and confidence faster than expected -- Andrew went from nervous to confident within a month of his first exterior painting summer. And the work itself is harder than it looks when someone skilled does it in front of you.Andrew ended up painting most of the house -- the kitchen, dining room, living room, and upstairs. Caleb handled a fair amount of the cutting in and ceiling work.Color Choices and Coverage [19:27]Caleb's fiancée Melanie handled all the interior color selections, which Caleb describes as a great decision. Dan had expected conservative colors based on Caleb's personality and was surprised to get a list of deep, saturated choices -- a near-teal green, dark forest tones, rich colors throughout. His instinct was that deep colors would require multiple coats to cover the lighter existing walls.They used RepcoLite Optima, and the coverage surprised Dan enough that he brought it up on air. Deep colors don't naturally hide better just because they have more pigment -- the colorant system and the base paint matter. Optima's combination of formula and colorant system delivered coverage close to what you'd hope for after one coat, and two coats finished the job cleanly.The favorite room is the living room, painted in Yorktown Green -- a deep blue-green Benjamin Moore color that reads almost like a rich teal. They had originally planned a different color and switched at the last minute. It turned out to be everyone's favorite.One Coat vs. Two [23:06]Even when one coat coverage looks surprisingly good -- and in this case it did -- two coats is always the right call. The second coat evens out color uniformity, improves sheen consistency, eliminates lap marks and differences between brushed and rolled areas, and builds the film thickness the paint was designed to have. Durability depends on having enough coating on the surface.Ceiling Paint Lesson [23:47]Caleb chose a creamy, slightly warm off-white for the ceilings rather than straight white. Dan went with bright white on his own ceiling at home and regrets it -- it reads as plasticky and a little harsh compared to a softer white. The warmer ceiling tone makes the rooms feel finished rather than clinical. Dan says he's living with it but won't make that choice again.Painting angled ceilings with a hip roof is harder than flat ceilings. The angles create back strain and make it difficult to track where you've been. On flat ceilings, working in a consistent grid pattern and watching for the shine of wet paint to see where you've covered is the practical method.Vanity Project and Ebonizing [25:50]Caleb is in the store today to pick up primer for a bathroom vanity he's painting. He had tried ebonizing the wood first -- a technique where you soak steel wool in vinegar for

Send us Fan MailWelcome to this episode of the Sexier than a Squirrel podcast, the podcast that brings you real-life dog training results, and sometimes human training ones too!This week, Lauren is joined by the brilliant Linda Hughes to introduce one very small dog with a very big personality. Meet Bobble – a two-kilo silver toy poodle who lives with four Border Collies, has absolutely no concept of being tiny, and somehow ended up with his own treehouse on Linda's desk.Living with a toy dog comes with its own unique set of considerations, and in this episode we explore what really changes when your newest family member is small enough to disappear beneath a Border Collie. From carefully managing play with bigger dogs and adding sofa steps to protect tiny joints, to resisting the temptation to accidentally create a dog who expects breakfast to arrive on a spoon, Lauren and Linda share the funny moments and practical lessons that have come with life alongside Bobble.The conversation also turns to training and day-to-day life. You'll hear why small dogs still need great recall, how easy it is to overlook the "easy" dog while managing everyone else, and why that could quickly lead to a tiny dog who thinks the rules don't apply. Linda also shares how she approaches grooming, clipping and coat care, including building positive associations with a dedicated grooming station so handling becomes just another part of life rather than something to dread.We also chat about toy breed fitness, supporting dogs with patella concerns, choosing toys that suit tiny mouths, and teaching a simple cue that helps manage breed-typical barking. And of course, no episode about Bobble would be complete without the story of how a firm "no dogs on the bed" rule quietly disappeared the moment one impossibly cute toy poodle curled up between the pillows.Whether you already share your home with a toy dog, you're thinking about welcoming one into your family, or you simply love hearing about the realities of life with dogs of every shape and size, this episode is guaranteed to leave you smiling.

Send us Fan MailWelcome to this episode of the Sexier than a Squirrel podcast, the podcast that brings you real-life dog training results, and sometimes human training ones too!This week, Lauren is joined by Alice to explore one of the most misunderstood pieces of dog training equipment there is: the muzzle. Whether you've never considered muzzle training before or you already have a dog who wears one, this episode is all about changing the conversation and showing how a muzzle can create more freedom, not less.Far too often, muzzles only come out when there's a crisis - an emergency vet visit, a bite risk, a scavenging habit, or new legal requirements. Lauren and Alice explain why waiting until you need a muzzle is one of the biggest mistakes owners can make. Instead, they explore how games-based training can build confidence long before the muzzle is ever needed, transforming it from something a dog tolerates into something they happily choose to wear. You'll also hear why muzzles aren't just for reactive dogs, but can be invaluable for cooperative care, grooming, travel, introductions, and preventing dangerous scavenging.The conversation also tackles some of the practical realities many owners face. Lauren and Alice discuss choosing a well-fitting basket muzzle that allows panting, drinking and taking treats, introducing new equipment through tiny, achievable steps, and making thoughtful adjustments to improve comfort. They also talk openly about breed-specific legislation, public perception, and why advocating for your dog with confidence is far more powerful than worrying about what other people might think.Whether your dog wears a muzzle today or you simply want to be prepared for whatever life brings, this episode will help you see muzzle training in a completely different light. It's a practical life skill that can improve safety, protect welfare, and open up opportunities for dogs to enjoy more of the world with confidence.Ready to get started?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ikdOTj6g_Zw Hosted by Fraser Cain. From  Apr 26, 2017. Here's a big mystery in astronomy: fast radio bursts. Brief shrieks of radio waves coming from space. What are they? Where do they come from? Astronomers have no idea.   Team: Fraser Cain - @fcain / frasercain@gmail.com Karla Thompson - @karlaii Chad Weber - weber.chad@gmail.com   You might think you're watching an educational channel, where I explain fascinating concepts in space and astronomy, but that's not really what's going on here.    What's actually happening is that you're tagging along as I learn more and more about new and cool things happening in the Universe. I dig into them like a badger hiding a cow carcass, and we all get to enjoy the cache of knowledge I uncover.   Okay, that analogy got a little weird. Anyway, my point is. Squirrel!   Fast radio bursts are the new cosmic whatzits confusing and baffling astronomers, and now we get to take a front seat and watch them move through all stages of process of discovery.   We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.  Just visit: https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy and donate as much as you can!
