“How do Catholics worship?” This question opens a discussion on the role of statues, saints, and the God in Catholic practice. Other topics include addressing concerns about differing views of Jesus with Protestant influences, the relationship between Catholic priests and Protestant outreach, and the significance of praying to saints. Join the Catholic Answers Live Club Newsletter Invite our apologists to speak at your parish! Visit Catholicanswersspeakers.com Questions Covered: 02:01 – My family is protestant and my wife is being influenced by online protestant like TacoTalks who claim that Catholics preach a different Jesus. How do I respond? 15:10 – Why do most Catholics priests reject the idea of partnering with Protestants in reaching students in secular schools? 29:28 – Why do Catholics bow down and pray to statues? Is the pope infallible? 34:15 – I'm Protestant because I question the praying to saints. 50:20 – I'm in OCIA. I was raised as a Jehovah’s Witness and had a hard time with images. How do I go about finding a rosary?
Hour 2 (09.28) Hurricane Polo is slamming Mexico’s Pacific coast, Nolo is pounding Hawaii, and El Niño has SoCal on coastal watch — Long Beach looking at monster tides and a flooded boardwalk. Then food: Langer’s by MacArthur Park takes the LA Times Gold, In-N-Out plants four more shops in Chino, Commerce, South El Monte, and Stockton, a man is camped on a Brentwood bus stop, and Fawnskin unveils a Jackie the eagle statue — same mountain town as a Kobe statue? Timmy’s been a “60 Minutes” kid since Andy Rooney (Colgate, like Mark), and Redlands wants bars dark after midnight over a three-year crime bump while liquor stores skate. Closing curveball: 13-year-old Long Island prodigy Joe Petraro-Hyppolite, IQ 168, is already in college and headed to NYU for a master’s. Timmy’s verdict: too young for campus — you can’t keep up with the older kids’ nightlife. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of the Explaining History Podcast, we explore Keith Lowe's *Prisoners of History* and the contested world of memorialisation – focusing on one of the strangest and most controversial memorial sites in Europe.Monuments occupy public space, and they impose meaning on it. Walk through any city and you'll find statues placed with particular agendas – to memorialise the past in certain ways, to place a particular interpretation on history. As a result, they are almost always contested. The recent removal of statues associated with the transatlantic slave trade, from Edward Colston in Bristol to Confederate monuments across the American South, provoked a furious reaction from the right, who framed it as a free speech issue. What they were really defending was the right of white supremacy to own and occupy public space.Keith Lowe argues that there is no escaping the monsters of our past. We can try to ignore them, rehabilitate them, or annihilate them – but their absence becomes its own kind of presence. There is only one final course open to us: ridicule.This brings us to Grūtas Park in Lithuania – a sculpture park displaying the statues of Stalin, Lenin, and other Soviet figures that were torn down after independence in 1990. Lithuania's 20th century was one of repeated invasion, occupation, and mass deportation. Around 300,000 Lithuanians were sent to Soviet gulags in the 1940s and 50s. So when independence came, the statues were decapitated, blowtorched, and dynamited. The government then stored the best-known examples in warehouses – until a former wrestling champion and mushroom farmer named Viliumas Malinauskas offered to take them off their hands and build a park.His proposals were extraordinary: tourists arriving on cattle trucks, actors dressed as guards herding them onto trains, barbed wire, guard towers, the whole gulag experience. Critics called it a "Stalin theme park." Over a million people signed a petition against it. Former partisans and political prisoners accused Malinauskas of profiting from their misery.But the park opened anyway – and became a hit. What makes Grūtas Park so interesting, and so troubling, is that it creates a space that is completely ahistorical. It was built in the era of the "end of history," when we thought we could turn the past into a meaningless theme park.History didn't end. Spoiler alert.**Topics covered:**- Keith Lowe's *Prisoners of History*- The contest over public memorials and public space- Francis Galton, eugenics, and the limits of ridicule- Lithuania's experience of Soviet and Nazi occupation- The fate of Stalin and Lenin statues after 1990- Viliumas Malinauskas and the creation of Grūtas Park- The petition, the protests, and the constitutional court ruling- The postmodern, ahistorical aesthetics of the park- The "end of history" and its illusions---*If you enjoy the podcast, please consider supporting us – we are migrating from Patreon to Substack.

Is it crazy to still be working through last year's 31 Days of Halloween in September of this year? Yes. Yes, it is. However, I doubt it's as crazy as what Oscar-winning animator extraordinaire Phil Tippett (JURASSIC PARK, ROBOCOP, RETURN OF THE JEDI, fuckin' PIRANHA) did: drop his magnum opus after three decades of work.MAD GOD is a stop-motion masterpiece: a descent into hell the likes typically reserved for Hieronymous Bosch paintings. The one character we follow is named The Assassin, dressed in a leather coat and gas mask (looking like the dude on the cover of FALLOUT: NEW VEGAS). He's arrived in a world that looks like the detritus of every other failed civilization. Only remnants remain. Statues, cracked buildings, abandoned machinery. No hierarchy exists outside of predator and prey. Even then, what alphas could remain? What would they even live for?I feel more like a witness than a viewer. This is the result of a man and his team painstakingly crafting every beam of light, clay creature and miniature piece of rubble, placing each in a precise location. It's the closest, I'd argue, filmmaking will get to humanity resembling a capital-C Creator. To allow myself to start comprehending how Tippett pieced together these elements and worked them into such a lovingly presented hellscape is to immediately launch open a headache. This is a movie that defies recommendation; there's no questionnaired flow chart that should lead you here. It's simply: Are you human? Yes? Then sit your ass down.

The Guys talk about the nearly universally-panned single T.H.E. (The Hardest Ever.) So awful that J-Lo has never mentioned it aside from posting the music video when it was first released, this song is about as bad as you can get without talking about endangering peoples' well-being and/or safety.
That episode really wove together some deep threads about memory, identity, and how societies decide what to honor or erase. • Mandela Effect

Season 12 begins with the trip to the Northwoods! For over a century Paul Bunyan has been America's best loved lumberjack hero. Statues honoring the gigantic woodsman dot the mid-west. His smiling face has been used to sell everything from building materials to loaves of bread. But, in the 1950's one of America's leading folklorists declared that Paul Bunyan was a prime example of something he called "fakelore." These were tales invented by authors that mimicked stories that came out of oral traditions. He accused Paul Bunyan of being a corporate mascot masquerading as an authentic American myth. Have these accusations stood the test of time? Is Paul Bunyan a fake myth? Tune-in and find out how lumberjack improv teams, mythical Quebec potholes, and the best man in Ottawa all play a role in the story!Listen to more Staring Contest HereSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Athens was not a city that had given up on trying to find God. It was a city that could not stop reaching for one. Statues on the corners, altars in the streets, and one altar with no name on it at all.Paul walked through that city for a week and something rose in him he could not shut off. Then he did the thing we should all do. He went and talked to people.

Cam Cooksey opens episode 63 (recorded August 15th, and a happy birthday to Jackie's dad, Javier) as the first show on Badlands that Saturday, mapping out a relaxed night of Truth Social posts, funny X finds, and the long overdue return of American of the Week. The heart of the show is his "triangulating truth" theme. Cam walks through Trump announcing missionary Kevin Rideout's rescue from West Africa, an AI photo tour of the new White House ballroom with George Washington, and a striking war casualty comparison putting Trump's Iran and Venezuela numbers against Vietnam, Korea, Iraq, and Afghanistan. He gets fired up over a federal judge unsealing Epstein documents (rejecting Ghislaine Maxwell's objections) and an SPLC executive's fraud arrest, all via Ali Tucker's spin free write-ups. He closes with Guard Vegas hype (the September retreat he calls a family reunion) and a young man's words of wisdom. Let go and embrace the flow.

When a 1,000-year-old Cambodian statue came up for auction at Sotheby’s in New York, it sparked off an investigation that uncovered one of the world’s most extensive art trafficking networks. On today’s Big Take Asia Podcast, host K. Oanh Ha talks to Bloomberg’s Matthew Campbell and American lawyer Bradley Gordon on how Cambodia’s looted treasures ended up scattered around the world and what it takes to bring them home.

Statues in parks and city centres are meant to celebrate history and inspire for the future. But it's thought that in nearly every country in the world, women only make up 2-3% of the public statues. Datshiane Navanayagam talks to sculptors from the US and Nigeria who are working to redress the balance.Meredith Bergmann is an American sculptor creating giant bronzes of significant female public figures for parks and historical sites around the United States. Her “Women's Rights Monument” was unveiled in 2020 for the 100th anniversary of the 19th Amendment, which granted women the right to vote. It was the first statue of a woman, joining 22 statues of historical men in Central Park in New York. Sokari Douglas Camp makes steel sculptures that vary in size from 30cm to 5m tall. Influenced by her Nigerian heritage, her latest exhibition, Fashion and Fortune, explores clothing, commerce and emblems of wealth using elaborate headdresses and the incorporation of coins to highlight both oppression and creativity.Produced by Jane Thurlow(Image: (L) Sokari Douglas Camp, credit Jonathan Greet.

It seems like the only time you hear about new statues these days is when something goes horribly wrong. Unfortunate bronze renditions of Lucille Ball, Cristiano Ronaldo, Dwayne Wade, and many others are always going viral, becoming a fixture of late-night shows and mocking comment sections. Is the internet too harsh a critic?

I will grant peace to their families. 2. They will be enlightened about the Divine Mysteries. 3. I will console them in their pains, and I will accompany them in their work. 4. I will give them as much as they ask for as long as it does not oppose the adorable will of my Divine Son or the sanctification of their souls. 5. I will defend them in their spiritual battles with the infernal enemy and I will protect them at every instant of their lives. 6. I will visibly help them at the moment of their death—they will see the face of their mother. 7. I have obtained this grace from my divine Son, that those who propagate this devotion to my tears and dolors will be taken directly from this earthly life to eternal happiness, since all their sins will be forgiven and my Son and I will be their eternal consolation and joy.

This episode is a re-release. Former New Orleans Mayor Mitch Landrieu joins Oprah for a candid, spiritual conversation about the realities of race, culture and politics in our modern age. He discusses his controversial, headline-making decision to remove four prominent Confederate monuments that stood in the city for more than 100 years. Mitch documents the removal of the monuments in his New York Times best-selling memoir “In the Shadow of Statues: A White Southerner Confronts History.” He also shares personal stories from his youth, including the challenges of growing up as the son of the mayor of New Orleans. (Please note this conversation includes strong language in the context of discussing racism in America.) Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
