The Perfect Neighbor debuted this month as the #1 film on Netflix, bringing attention to Stand Your Ground laws through the story of Ajike “AJ” Owens. AJ was killed in 2023 by her neighbor Susan Lorincz, a woman known throughout the neighborhood as “The Karen." This documentary, told through police bodycam footage of the confrontations leading up to the horrific murder, is part of a movement for social change. On this MiniPod, our hosts Angela Rye, Tiffany Cross, and Andrew Gillum speak with the mother of Ajike Owens, Pamela Dias, and executive producer of the film, Takema Robinson. In honor of Ajike’s legacy, these two co-founded the Standing In The Gap Fund with a vision to transform grief into action and seek justice for those impacted by racial violence. Florida’s first-in-the-nation Stand Your Ground law played a key role in Ajike’s murder. Her killer researched the law BEFORE shooting Ajike and using it as her legal defense. Ajike, Takema, and SO many others are seeking to overturn the law that’s disproportionately used to justify murdering members of the Black community.

In February 2022, Florida deputies responded to a service call in which a white woman complained about Black children in her neighborhood playing near her property. Though deputies found the behavior innocuous, Susan Lorincz continued to call the police on the kids, fueling growing tension among neighbors. Then in June 2023, Ajike Owens went to Lorincz's door to confront her after the woman allegedly threw a roller skate at her son. Within minutes, gunshots rang out—leaving one woman dead and another in custody. Detectives were left to determine whether this was a case of self-defense or a premeditated attack. Note: The Perfect Neighbor begins streaming on 10/17.The documentary The Perfect Neighbor, now streaming on Netflix, is shot almost entirely through police body-worn camera footage. It recounts Lorincz's slow burn from Karen to killer and examines the racial disparity in the application of Florida's Stand Your Ground law—asking whether the suspect was motivated by fear or by anger.OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEWS OF "THE PERFECT NEIGHBOR" BEGIN IN THE FINAL 11 MINUTES OF THE EPISODE.

“The enemy isn't just the killer — it's the clock.” Firearms instructor and legal expert Massad Ayoob breaks down the truth about school shootings, gun laws, and the fight for civil rights in America. Listen to why the first 30 seconds determine who lives or dies — and how the Israeli model of armed, trained school staff can stop mass killers before police even arrive. Massad and Michael also touch on: • The emotional weapon the gun-control lobby uses — and why pro-2A advocates must fight with both facts and feelings. • The racist roots of gun control — from post-Civil War “may issue” laws to modern “sensitive area” bans. • Why 29 states now recognize constitutional carry, and how the patchwork of gun laws puts honest citizens at risk. • The truth about 18- to 20-year-olds and AR-15 bans — and what America's best marksmen can teach us. • The difference between opponents and enemies, and the 80/10/10 rule every activist needs to know. • Why National Reciprocity and Stand Your Ground protections are essential for real freedom.

On this week's episode of The South Florida Roundup, we looked at the free-speech debate raging after Charlie Kirk's death — specifically in Palmetto Bay, whose mayor, Karyn Cunningham, talked about ousting Councilman Steve Cody after a social media post he made on the matter (01:20). We also talked with Miami-Dade Mayor Daniella Levine-Cava about how a county budget that looked wrecked got repaired, and approved (14:15). And we discussed why a Broward County judge just let a police officer off in a deadly shooting case (26:59).

Ephesians 6:10-20 // Fighting God's Enemies // Anthony Jones // August 31, 2025

Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell share the horrifying details contained in the 105-page federal court transcript from the June 12 detention hearing of the now-former South Carolina House of Representatives legislator — and now-former state Freedom Caucus leader — Robert J. May III. RJ May. Though the tip about RJ's alleged activity was delivered on March 31, it would take nearly three months for that tip to make its way to South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson's Office, another week to make its way to the sheriff's office and another three months before RJ's house would be raided.  Mandy and Liz talk about what went down in the hearing and how it's even more egregious to know how few people in power have spoken out about RJ May's alleged actions. Also on the show, Myrtle Beach churchy business bro “pastor” John-Paul Miller was in court again this week for the final frivolous lawsuit he filed against a protester. Spoiler alert: JP lost. Again. Plus, a look at an opinion piece written about the Scott Spivey killing case and why it's wrong to conclude that South Carolina's Stand Your Ground law means it's OK to shoot and kill anyone so long as you feared for your life at the time.  Let's dive in!

Pastor Ray Bentley says, we need to remember we're on the winning side in spiritual warfare. There are times when you get intimidated by overemphasis izing the enemy. Rather than emphasizing the greatness of our God, the greatness of our Savior, the greatness of the power of the Holy Spirit. We don't stand against Ray Bentley, against the devil. You laugh.

Pastor Ray Bentley has important information for all of us last days believers. The enemy is pulling out all the stops. He wants to keep people from looking for, naming or calling upon the name of Jesus. But here's the good news. First, John chapter two says we have an advocate before the father. That word advocate means we have a lawyer.

 JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @ FOR THIS WEEK'S ASTROLOGICALLY SPEAKING PODCAST WHICH DROPS AUGUST 15 @ https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speaking. This week we explore the true meaning of this month's lunar cycle from the July 24 Leo New Moon opposite Pluto in Aquarius, which asked us to plant seeds to better understand we're each here to evolve into the solar, creative, unique, individual we came here to be. And not to be intimidated out of that quest through manipulative coercive disempowerment tactics by the powers that be.So we knew from the beginning of this current monthly lunar cycle that it wasn't going to be without its struggles to maintain our individuality against those in power. It's important to remember that the Leo archetype is about not hiding one's light under a bushel, so that one can ultimately contribute one's unique creativity to the group for the purpose of the betterment of humanity. It's also important to understand that this month's lunation was accompanied by the beginning of the long-term trine of Uranus in Gemini to Pluto in Aquarius. And that this airy trine aspect in the sky makes its presence felt from now until the fall of 2028—aside from some brief times when it loosens a bit during that period.And that means that what we're experiencing during this period is a slow evolutionary process accompanied by many “aha!” type moments. We'll also see Uranus retrograde back into 29-degrees Taurus--known as the Pleiades point, associated with blindness—by November 7, though he'll still then maintain an out of sign trine with Pluto in Aquarius. So, Uranian revelations may well include suddenly learning where we've been blinded to what's really been happening as part of Pluto in Aquarius's evolutionary process to empower us all as individuals who stand together. America was built on the “E pluribus unim” motto, which means “out of many, one,” adopted at the signing of America's Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776. When the Scorpio Moon squared the Leo Sun August 1 at the waxing first quarter “crisis in action”—which was accompanied by Venus's square to Saturn & Neptune & her quincunx to Pluto—we witnessed the beginning of our understanding that we the people were being manipulated. That's because this is when Donald Trump fired the U.S. Commissioner of the Bureau of Labor Statistics that day based on his dislike of the real unemployment numbers he then sought to fabricate into different, better sounding numbers. He also terminated the head of the Internal Revenue Service, again an indication of trying to control numbers, in line with the fact that Mars in Virgo was conjunct the transiting Virgo South Node at the Leo New Moon. After that, the August 9 Aquarius Full Moon square to Juno & Vesta in Scorpio asked us to release any tendencies toward Leo's shadow side. And that meant letting go of any selfish tendencies to disregard the specialness of each individual soul by lumping them together into a group of undesirables. By that time, Trump had re-imposed higher tariffs on 90 different "partner" countries, though by August 11--as Mercury stationed direct again in Leo & Ceres stationed retrograde in Aries (square to the Venus/Jupiter conjunction in Cancer)—he delayed tariffs on China. In other words, he TACO'd out, again…Many reputable financiers & economists predict a rise in the already high prices of imported goods—particularly at the grocery store & via automobile sales, etc. It's clear now that tariffs hurt American consumers as much if not more than foreign producers in the form of increased costs/prices across the board.Now, this week's third quarter “crisis in consciousness” stubborn Taurus Moon, in tension with the monarchical tendencies of the Leo Sun, asks us during the waning portion of this month's lunar cycle to stand our ground against the powers that be that try to define us as “less than.”What we see now on the ground in places like Washington, D.C., as federal troops & the FBI first joined--but now try to supersede the authority of--the local police there, is people beginning to protest against the authoritarian takeover of the U.S. capitol.Going back to the initial message & meaning of this month's lunar cycle since the July 24 Leo New Moon opposite Pluto in Aquarius, we can see now at this waning third-quarter square that we're asked to stand our ground as a wannabe tyrant tries to manipulate & control us all. The want us to believe that resistance in futile, but American history tells us otherwise.The presence of federal troops in U.S. cities reminds us of the time when British monarchy demanded that colonists house British troops in their homes. Known as the Quartering Act of 1774, this became of the Intolerable Acts which helped light the fuse that fueled colonial resentment towards British rule which ultimately contributed to the growing tensions that led to the American Revolution. Hence, the "invasion" of illegal immigrants Trump has used as an excuse to federalize our local police by taking over our cities is actually a federal invasion of citizens' local & state rights as the national government flood cities with federal troops, the FBI, & Immigration & Customs Enforcement's gestapo-like henchmen.In other astro-news, we have also today's "crisis in consciousness" third-quarter lunar square's summit in Anchorage Alaska between Trump & Russia's dictator, Vladimir Putin. Given the astro-energies at play, it seems likely that Putin--who already believes he has the upper hand in any peace talk negotiations--will stand his ground, thus continuing to disempower Zelensky's Ukraine.And given the fawning relationship of Trump to Putin, it's highly likely that Trump will once again flip-flop to turn against Ukraine, especially since the Moon will enter Gemini & conjoin Uranus there on August 16. Perhaps then Trump will drop his quest to be nominated for a Nobel Peace prize for his efforts to bring peace to Ukraine. There you have the shadow side of the Leo archetype in a nutshell...Next week, we see the arrival, late on August 22 or early August 23 depending on your time zone, of the Virgo New Moon at 0'23” Virgo. This lunation, following the Leo New Moon opposite Pluto's monthly lunar cycle, continues our quest to honor the “E pluribus unim—out of many, one” U.S. motto into the future.As the longer term Uranus/Pluto trine evolves us back into a nation of individuals who understand that there's safety in numbers, the Virgo New Moon asks us to plant seeds of better self-care. Why? So that we can then better be of service to our fellow humans beings who may be even more in need of our help as we continue to stand our ground against the tyrannical powers that be. Tune in for all this—including a deeper dive into the meaning of Uranus/Pluto trine, the definitions of Juno & Vesta, a look at Ceres retrograde--& more @ https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speaking starting today, August 15!See you later, namaste…

GOD!! Join us Sunday morning as Pastor Michael digs into Shammah's story and the secret to Standing Our Ground, in a day when most are running for "Safety".

The guys get together to discuss topics such as former president Donald Trump to deploy National Guard and federalize D.C. police as part of crime-fighting effort, the differences between living in the city and the country and how the "Stand Your Ground" Law could affect self-defense claims and much more on this episode that you do not want to miss and make sure to tune in!

Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell continue to connect the dots in the Scott Spivey shooting case as they impatiently wait for South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster to appoint a special prosecutor to revisit what has turned out to be one of the most corrupt police investigations in state history.  On this week's episode: Did shooter Weldon Boyd's months-long obsession over his ex-fiancé have him in a fighting-mood on the day he and his friend Bradley Williams killed Scott? In SLED's download of Bradley's phone there were 60 screenshots of text messages between Weldon and the mother and grandmother of his son, showing Weldon's increasing anger over his inability to control and manipulate his former fiancé. Those messages, along with court records, recorded phone calls and social media posts reveal that Weldon wasn't just momentarily upset about his broken engagement the afternoon of Sept. 9, 2023, when he encountered Scott on Highway 9 in Horry County…   Mandy and Liz share their new timeline on Weldon's potential state of mind as he tousled with Scott on the road, along with Weldon's tactical messages, seemingly crafted to create a paper trail for the narrative he wanted everyone around him to believe.  Let's dive in!

Why Did It Take So Long to Arrest An SC Lawmaker Charged With Distributing Videos of Men Raping Babies?   Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell are accustomed to being disgusted by politicians who happily take part in the Good Ole Boy system when it comes to protecting bad actors from taking accountability.

Robert John “RJ” May III was arrested and charged with 10 federal counts of distributing child sex abuse materials. So why is it taking so long for RJ May to be removed from office? Why was there so much hesitation and delay before arresting him? And why was his case given to two agencies that had very personal ties to him?  Mandy and Liz explore the answers to those questions, as well as the biggest question of all: Why aren't men accused of perpetuating such vile and heinous abuse of children — including babies — not seen as immediate potential threats to society?  Plus, (24:30) Part Two of our real-time coverage of the Scott Spivey shooting (AKA the Horry County Police Department corruption case) about Weldon Boyd's star witness, Witness No. 1. Mandy and Liz continue connecting the dots and digging into the inconsistencies in witness testimony and have found themselves at a complete loss for why the South Carolina Attorney General's Office continues to refuse to appoint a special prosecutor to the state's biggest “Stand Your Ground” case.  Let's dive in!

On In The Market with Janet Parshall this week we tackled a subject that can cripple a life and a faith walk: anxiety. We spoke to a father and son team who educated us what exactly anxiety is and is not, why it is different than worry and how to use God’s word as a healing antidote to anxiety. Much like anxiety, depression can also take us down for the count. Once again, we turned to a friend of the program and a highly family therapist to address this important topic head on. She gave us a better understanding of what depression is and she addressed the need for the church to continue to show sensitivity to those who struggle with mental challenges allowing them to find love, understating and acceptance within the family of God. Once again, we visited with a highly respected evangelist and friend of the program who talked about some of the most common types of resistance that he encounters when sharing the good news and how to navigate them. He also gave us some important insights into how to share the gospel message with family members. In the push and pull of life it is so easy for believers to be so earth focused that we forget the greatest promise of God to His children, a life beyond this veil of tears in Heaven with Him forever. Our guest explained why God has placed the hope of Heaven at the center of the Christian faith. Through a series of biblical meditations he helped a gain a greater appreciation of this great inheritance while we trod the soil of the here and now. Perhaps never before has there been such a need for God’s people to use their discernment when reading the news. We invite you to sharpen those skills as our favorite husband and wife team dig deep to find the story behind the stories as they examine more headlines of the week against God’s straight stick of truth.Become a Parshall Partner: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/inthemarket/partnersSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A 2023 road rage incident near Myrtle Beach turned deadly. Weldon Boyd fatally shot and killed 33 year old Scott Spivey. Boyd claimed self defense under South Carolina's Stand Your Ground Law. Questions emerged about the investigation after Boyd's phone calls were released. There are also questions abut Boyd's relationship with law enforcement and how the investigation was handled. In this episode you will hear 911 calls from the scene. Do they help or hurt Boyd's defense. In the May 1 episode Wall Street Journal reporter Valerie Bauerlein joined the Impact podcast to share her reporting on the case. Seton Tucker and Matt Harris began the Impact of Influence podcast shortly after the murders of Maggie and Paul Murdaugh. Now they cover true crime past and present from the southeast region of the U.S. Impact of Influence is part of the Evergreen Podcast Company. Look for Impact of Influence on Facebook and Youtube.

Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell — and the whole LUNASHARK team — are celebrating 100 episodes of True Sunlight Podcast, the show that emerged from their relentless pursuit of justice in the highly acclaimed Murdaugh Murders Podcast (which, of course, is the basis for the star-studded Hulu scripted series currently filming in Atlanta).  What better way to celebrate two years of post-Murdaugh reporting than with an old throwback … breaking Murdaugh news on a Wednesday! Former Colleton County Clerk of Court Becky Hill was arrested and charged with four felony counts — two misconduct in office charges, an obstruction of justice charge and perjury.  Though three of the charges are related to Alex Murdaugh's murder trial they are NOT related to Dick and Jim's claims of jury-tampering. Two of the charges are specifically related to photos of Maggie and Paul Murdaugh's dead bodies, which were allegedly leaked to a "news" agency during the trial and later distributed to random people following the Murdaugh case. Hmmm... But will these charges affect Alex's chances at getting a new trial?  Also on the show, an update in the (18:49) Jane Doe lawsuits against Myrtle Beach “pastor” John-Paul Miller.  Plus, our continuing coverage of (34:17) the Weldon Boyd Calls. From the second North Myrtle Beach businessman opened his truck door after shooting 33-year-old Scott Spivey of Tabor City, North Carolina, to death in September 2023, Boyd began his search for the perfect narrative — one that would explain his presence on Camp Swamp Road and fit the definition of the Stand Your Ground law; that would explain why Scott was shot to death in the back and in his truck; one that integrated the emerging bits of information Weldon appeared to be getting from the shadows of the so-called investigation by Horry County Police Department.  Lots to cover, so let's dive in...

Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell and attorney Eric Bland pull back the curtain on disturbing issues in Horry County, South Carolina. Our team narrows focus to Weldon Boyd's troubling narrative, detailing how Boyd admittedly followed Scott Spivey before the fatal shooting. The hosts dissect the circumstances, questioning the application of "Stand Your Ground" given Weldon's decision to pursue Scott onto Camp Swamp Road. We'll also lob criticisms at the press, particularly local media in Horry County, for initial "basic" reporting and for not aggressively pursuing the story. And we'll touch on the lack of accountability for Horry County police leadership, challenges with FOIA redactions, and the political reluctance of state officials like the Governor to intervene.  While the growing public outcry from Horry County residents demanding change offers a glimmer of hope, these circumstances paint a vivid picture of systemic failures, a lack of accountability, and the ongoing struggle for transparency and justice in Horry County. Knowing Horry County's heavy reliance on tourism dollars means these issues of safety and public trust have significant economic stakes. ☕ Cups Up!  ⚖️ Episode References A warning for potential South Carolina tourists: You may not be safe “In Stores, Secret Surveillance Tracks Your Every Move” - The New York Times, from The Privacy Project Series “Why U.S. air traffic control is stretched so thin — and the fight to fix it” - CNBC, Updated May 10, 2025 “Your Apps Know Where You Were Last Night, and They're Not Keeping It Secret” - The New York Times, Dec. 10, 2018 Parts of a Springfield XDM Pistol “Letting retirees double-dip is the wrong way to keep SC teachers in the classroom” - The State, March 27, 2018 FBI as Primary Investigators of Civil Right Violations Horry County PD Facebook Post with Pamela Evette - May 9, 2025 “Are Agencies Required to Release Body-Worn Camera Footage” - Municipal Association of South Carolina Upcoming Events Michael Colucci re-trial set to begin on June 16th, 2025 Walking With Stephen event on July 12th Stay Tuned, Stay Pesky and Stay in the Sunlight...☀️ ⁠⁠Premium Members⁠⁠ also get access to episode videos, case files, live trial coverage and exclusive live experiences with our hosts. ⁠⁠CLICK HERE⁠⁠ to learn more: ⁠⁠https://bit.ly/3BdUtOE⁠⁠.
