What happens when you cross old-school orange genetics with modern gas-heavy funk? You get Ecto Cooler, a strain that hits like a citrus soda spiked with rocket fuel. In this episode, we crack open the genetics, terpene profile, flavors, and effects behind one of the most memorable citrus-forward cultivars on dispensary shelves.Named after the iconic ‘80s drink, Ecto Cooler has built a reputation for delivering bright, uplifting effects while keeping enough body relaxation in the mix to stay balanced. Whether you're chasing flavor, focus, or just curious about what makes this strain stand out, we've got you covered.The genetics behind Ecto CoolerWhy citrus-heavy strains continue to be fan favoritesThe terpene profile that drives its aroma and effectsCommonly reported effects and who might enjoy themWhy the same strain can feel different from person to personHow Ecto Cooler compares to other citrus-forward cultivarsType: Sativa-dominant HybridGenetics: California Orange × Gorilla Biscuit Common Aromas & Flavors:OrangeLemon citrusPineFuelSweet gas Commonly Reported Effects:UpliftedFocusedCreativeHappyRelaxed While terpene results vary by grower and batch, Ecto Cooler is most often associated with:LimoneneMyrceneCaryophyllenePinene (in some cultivars)Linalool (occasionally present in smaller amounts) Ecto Cooler is a great example of why strain names only tell part of the story. The real experience comes from the plant's chemistry, the terpene profile, cannabinoid content, and your own biology.

Got a question? Let us know!Host: HeatherGuests: Doug, Joe, ChelleWEEKEND CHITCHATQuick catch-up: What did y'all get into this weekend?BIBLE READING CHALLENGEWhat stood out to you from this week's reading?Wrapped up 1 ChroniclesBegan 2 ChroniclesContinued through the Gospel of JohnSUNDAY DISHDoug, this week you continued Losing Myself by walking through Moses' first painful encounter with Pharaoh in Exodus 5 and 6. Moses obeys God, Pharaoh makes things worse, and the people suffer, raising a question many of us have asked: What do we do when faithfulness seems to fail? The invitation was to stop naming our failures, bring our frustrations honestly to God, and keep trusting the God who has a name, hears our groans, and keeps His promises.Q1: Harder Than ExpectedLet's start light.What's something you've tried to get better at that ended up being way harder than you expected?Q2: The Need to Prove OurselvesDoug, you talked about losing yourself as letting go of proving yourself and learning to trust Jesus instead.What do you think people are most often trying to prove—and why?Q3: When Obedience Doesn't Change the SituationPharaoh asks, "Who is the Lord?" and later God responds by revealing His name, His nearness, and His promises.How does that help us understand what God is doing when obedience hasn't changed the situation yet?Follow-up:Where do you see people today needing God to reveal not just an answer, but Himself?Q4: Formation Before ResultsYou referenced Dallas Willard's idea that we often want the right outcomes without embracing the kind of life that forms them.Why does spiritual growth often expose our untrained habits before it produces visible change?Follow-up:What's one ordinary practice that helps bridge that gap without turning faith into self-improvement?Q5: When Becoming Feels Like FailureThe big idea was:"Losing yourself may feel like failure before it feels like becoming."Doug, you illustrated that through Ransom's karate belt test.How does that idea hit you personally, especially in seasons when obedience, repentance, or growth seems to make life messier instead of better?Follow-up:How can we help people stay in the process instead of labeling themselves as failures?Q6: Becoming Someone NewDoug, you invited us to fill in the blank:"Jesus is helping me become ______."What's the wisdom in naming what Jesus is forming in us instead of only focusing on what we're doing wrong?Follow-up:What might one small step toward that becoming look like this week—even if the first board doesn't break?JOIN US SUNDAY!That's all the time we have for today!We're excited about this coming Sunday as we continue our Losing Myself series.Be sure to share this episode, and maybe invite someone you've been thinking about bringing with you.

The truth is, all of us have areas where we want to grow in. In this message, we're challenged to honestly evaluate our spiritual lives and ask whether we're closer to God today than we were a year ago. Spiritual growth doesn't happen by accident. It requires us to have daily connection time with Jesus. It's time for us to step up! STAY CONNECTEDWebsite: www.oasisphx.comFacebook: Oasis Community ChurchInstagram: @oasisphx

No two sets of construction drawings are exactly the same, but mastering the absolute basics of civil utility plans is your ticket to navigating any job site with confidence. In this episode of the Build America Podcast, host Scott Jennings breaks down how to read and interpret utility plan and profile drawings. From understanding the differences between a bird's-eye plan view and a cross-section profile view, to untangling critical acronyms like HDPE, IE, and O/S, Scott shares lessons from his years in heavy civil company ownership to save you time, money, and headaches on your next project. Tune in to learn:Drawing Organization & Sequence: How civil sheets are organized in a massive project set (like a Costco or Walmart) and how to identify them using the letter C.

Series: The Fruit of the Spirit Title: Plant and Abide Speaker: Pastor Daron Earlewine Date: May 31, 2026 SERIES OVERVIEW: This year, we have been leaning into the person and work of the Holy Spirit. We have talked about the Spirit's presence, power, voice, and gifts. But one of the most important works of the Holy Spirit is not only what He does through us, but what He forms within us. The gifts of the Spirit matter. God empowers His people for ministry, mission, healing, prophecy, service, leadership, and evangelism. But Scripture is clear: spiritual power without spiritual character is dangerous. A person can be gifted and still be immature. A church can be impressive and still be unhealthy. A leader can have influence and still lack integrity. That is why Paul tells us in Galatians 5 that the evidence of a Spirit-filled life is not only power, but fruit: "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control." — Galatians 5:22–23 NIV The fruit of the Spirit is the character of Jesus being cultivated in us by the Holy Spirit. This summer, we will walk through each fruit one week at a time and ask: What kind of people is the Holy Spirit forming us to become? Because the goal is not merely to be more talented, more productive, more knowledgeable, or more spiritually impressive. The goal is to become more like Jesus.

This episode starts where all highly intellectual conversations should, ancient civilizations, hyper-advanced lost technology, underground civilizations, interdimensional weirdness… and eventually bathroom breaks.Brandon and Jesse take a completely normal stroll through theories about the pyramids, Atlantis, Petra, ley lines, Skinwalker Ranch, Bigfoot, ultra terrestrials, the Book of Enoch, and whether reality is way stranger than we've been told. Somewhere between discussing classified documents, weird government studies, and possible portal creatures, the conversation takes its usual Sesh turn into body weight, random life updates, social chaos, and the kind of completely unhinged side tangents that make this show what it is. If you've ever sat around with friends, passed something good, and ended up asking, “Wait… what if everything we know is incomplete?” this one's for you.Conspiracy? Maybe. Curiosity? Definitely.Come hang out.Keep the Mic on.Fuel the movement.

Let's say your clinic is based in one city, but many of your patients are willing to drive 20 or even 30 miles to see you. They know it's worth traveling for high-quality care. The challenge is that when those same people search online, they often aren't typing in your city's name. They're looking for services closer to where they live or work.So how can your clinic show up in those searches and attract new patients from surrounding cities or suburbs?That's what we're exploring today: how to expand your local SEO reach the right way. We'll cover how Google determines local relevance, the strategies that actually help you appear in nearby city searches, and what to avoid so you don't hurt your visibility.By the end, you'll have a clear roadmap for building a stronger local presence that helps patients in your wider area discover your clinic and book appointments with confidence.Episode webpages, blog, & show notes: https://propelyourcompany.com/rank-in-nearby-cities-local-seo-for-clinics/Send in your questions. ❤ We'd love to hear from you!Webinar: The Hidden SEO Mistakes Costing Clinics Patients Right Now (And Easy Fixes You Can Start Making This Week)Save your spot: https://propelyourcompany.com/june/** Can't make it live?

Staffing is one of the biggest hidden growth challenges in urgent care.If your clinic cannot stay fully staffed, it impacts everything, patient experience, wait times, reviews, retention, and ultimately revenue.In this episode of Walk-Ins Welcome, Nick and Michael sit down with Matthew Sherriff, Owner and President of SHS Recruitment Partners, to unpack what is really happening in urgent care recruiting right now. Matthew shares what he's seeing across hundreds of urgent care locations nationwide, why so many clinics struggle to keep positions filled, and the operational mistakes that quietly push great candidates away.The conversation dives into recruiting x-ray techs, APPs, MAs, and other key clinical staff, while also exploring culture, leadership, onboarding speed, clinic environment, and the role staffing plays in long-term clinic growth.If your clinic constantly feels understaffed, overwhelmed, or stuck in an endless hiring cycle, this episode gives a practical look at how better recruiting systems can improve operations and patient experience at the same time.

Series: A Generous Spirit Title: The Generous Church Speaker: Pastor Corinne Gunter Date: May 24, 2026 SERIES OVERVIEW What if generosity isn't something God wants from you… But something He wants to form in you? In this sermon series, we'll discover that generosity is not about pressure, guilt, or obligation—it's about transformation. When the Holy Spirit fills your life, He reshapes your heart, reorders your priorities, and begins to flow through you in powerful ways. This series will challenge the way you see God, your resources, and your purpose. Because the truth is: You don't manufacture generosity— you receive it from God, and it flows through you to others. Together we will discover that generosity isn't just something we do—it's who we become when the Holy Spirit fills us.

What starts as Jesse getting green sticky pants and both of us nerding out over flower that smells like straight-up apple fritters somehow turns into one of those classic Sesh episodes where we accidentally get deep.This one goes everywhere, in the best way.We talk about the difference between failure and expensive education, why some of life's dumbest moments end up teaching the most, and how changing the story you tell yourself can completely change how you process setbacks.There's also a very real detour into what a Cannabis School coffee shop would look like (honestly? still into this idea), conversations about being a cannabis nerd without fully admitting you're a cannabis nerd, and some unexpectedly solid reflection on relationships, communication, and why clarity changes everything.Basically: part stoner brainstorm, part therapy session, part business idea pitch deck we absolutely built while high.In this episode:Flower that smells suspiciously like apple frittersJesse's tragic grinder incidentWhy “failure” might be the wrong wordThe business ideas weed gives you at the exact wrong timeCannabis School Café (investors, call us
In this urgent episode, host Amie Archibald-Varley sits down with Dr. Michelle Acorn, CEO of the Nurse Practitioners' Association of Ontario (NPAO), to rip the band-aid off a system that refuses to evolve. Dr. Acorn pulls no punches: Nurse Practitioners are trained, capable, and ready — and they're being held back by outdated policy, inadequate funding, and a government content to watch the primary care crisis deepen rather than act. What you'll hear in this episode: The full scope of what Ontario's inaction actually means for patients on the ground Why NPs remain one of the most underleveraged solutions in Canada's healthcare system The funding reforms and regulatory barriers that must be dismantled — now What a truly patient-centered, NP-inclusive system could look like — and the path to get there Why this moment is a turning point This is the conversation healthcare needs to have. The one that doesn't end with "we'll study it further." If you care about access to care, about equity, about a system that finally treats Nurse Practitioners as the leaders they are — this episode is required listening. Subscribe, share, and turn up the volume. The gritty truth can't wait. Update: The April 1st Deadline Has Come and Gone. Ontario's Patients Are Paying for It. The federal government drew a line in the sand: by April 1, 2026, provinces must ensure that medically necessary services delivered by Nurse Practitioners are publicly covered. Ontario blinked — and millions of patients are now left holding the bill. As reported by CBC News, Ontario failed to meet the federal deadline, leaving Ontarians without primary care and forcing them to pay out-of-pocket for services that should never cost them a dime. This isn't a bureaucratic hiccup. This is a political choice — and people without a family doctor are the ones suffering the consequences. The Gritty Nurse isn't here for polite conversation. We're here to start the revolution. More About Dr. Michelle Acorn Dr. Acorn has over 35 years of nursing, health systems and leadership expertise. NP Acorn transitioned to her NPAO CEO role in 2024. She previously was the inaugural Chief Nurse with the International Council of Nurses, a former Provincial Chief Nursing Officer in Ontario, and has served as a NPAO President.

NP Acorn has received prestigious recognitions including the Nurse Practitioner Association of Canada Award of Excellence and Premier's Award Nominee for Outstanding Scholars and Leaders. She was named one of the top 20 visionary CEOs in Canada (2024), and top 25 women of influence in Canada (2025) and received a King Charles III Coronation Medal (2025).

This week we sparked up Black Maple from Dragonfly, and right out of the jar… yeah, the name tracks.Dark, sweet, maple syrup vibes. Not the fake pancake syrup from childhood. We're talking the thick, rich, Costco real-maple kind that makes you question every breakfast decision you've made before now.Black Maple comes in as a true hybrid bred from Dulce de Uva x Sherbanger, and this one hit interesting.For us, the effects came on pretty head-first. Forehead, temples, behind the eyes, that “okay I definitely feel this” pressure, but without tipping into couch-lock territory. It had some lift thanks to the pinene presence, but didn't fully commit to being an energetic daytime strain either.Basically? It lives in that weird middle ground.Top terpenes:Beta-CaryophylleneLimoneneAlpha-PineneBeta-PineneCannabinoid profile included trace amounts of:Delta-9 THC, THCV-A, CBG, CBC-A, CBD-A, and CBG-ATranslation? More going on than just “big THC number go brrrr.”And honestly… that became part of the conversation.Because somewhere in this episode we started talking about how chasing the highest THC is still one of the dumbest shopping habits in cannabis.Black Maple wasn't bad. Not even close.It looked great.Smelled fantastic.Flavor was solid.Effects got better as it settled in.But compared to some strain combos we've mixed lately? It felt like this one might actually shine more as a pairing strain than a solo act.Which led us down a whole rabbit hole of cannabis blending, terp stacking, entourage effect conversations, and whether more people should be intentionally mixing strains instead of always hunting the newest hype jar.Best reported tendencies from this one?HappyRelaxedFocusedMild pain reliefWould we smoke it again? Yeah.Would we reach for it over some of our favorite custom combos? Probably not.But if you've had Black Maple from a different grower or batch, your mileage may absolutely vary because cannabis is wildly batch-dependent.Keep the Mic on.Fuel the movement.

What if almost everything you were taught about Old Testament purity laws was wrong?Most Christians hear "impurity" and immediately think sin. We've been taught that the purity system was about moral failure, that sacrifice was primitive and empty, and that Jesus came to sweep the whole oppressive thing away. Dr. Jonathan Klawans, Professor of Religion and Jewish Studies at Boston University, says we've collapsed two completely different categories into one confused mess, and it's been distorting how we read the Bible for centuries.In this conversation, Dr. Klawans walks us through the critical distinction between ritual impurity and moral impurity, two systems the Hebrew Bible treats as entirely separate. Ritual impurity comes from things like childbirth, menstruation, and touching a corpse. These aren't sins. They're natural, unavoidable, sometimes even commanded. Moral impurity is something else entirely: idolatry, sexual transgression, bloodshed. These defile the land, pollute the Temple, and if left unaddressed, drive out God's presence.We dig into why the prophets weren't rejecting sacrifice but calling out theft and injustice. We explore how sacrifice functioned as imitatio Dei, the imitation of God, from the careful shepherding of unblemished animals to the priest examining the kidneys and heart. We discuss how both Christian and Jewish traditions have imposed later theological frameworks onto ancient texts, and what it costs us when we do. And we ask the hard question: What was Jesus actually doing when he interacted with purity and the Temple?Dr. Klawans is the author of four books with Oxford University Press, including the award-winning Impurity and Sin in Ancient Judaism and Purity, Sacrifice, and the Temple. In this episode, you will learn:- The difference between ritual impurity and moral impurity and why conflating them causes so much confusion- Why becoming ritually impure was sometimes unavoidable and even commanded- How moral impurity defiles the land and the Temple, and what happens when it goes unaddressed- What the prophets were actually criticizing when they seemed to reject sacrifice- How sacrifice functioned as imitatio Dei, imitating God through the entire process- The role of sacrifice in attracting and maintaining God's presence- How supersessionist frameworks (both Christian and Jewish) distort our reading of ancient sources- What really happened to Judaism after the Temple's destruction in 70 AD- How to understand Jesus's interactions with purity and the TempleBOOKS:Purity, Sacrifice, and the Temple: https://a.co/d/0bXkmvkjImpurity and Sin in Ancient Judaism: https://www.amazon.com/Impurity-Ancient-Judaism-Jonathan-Klawans/dp/0195177657Boston University Faculty Page: https://www.bu.edu/religion/faculty/jonathan-klawans/STAY CONNECTED:Website: johnnyova.comSubscribe on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@thejohnnyovaThe Revelation Reset: https://www.amazon.com/Revelation-Reset-Reclaiming-Optimistic-Eschatology-ebook/dp/B0D2TXFX3J

Got a question? Let us know!Host: Heather Guests: Jamey, Chelle, Pastor LaurenWEEKEND CHITCHATQuick catch-up: What did y'all get into this weekend?BIBLE READING CHALLENGEWhat stood out to you from this week's reading?WHAT THE WHAT????Listener questions if submitted.SUNDAY DISHJamey, this week you continued our Losing Myself series by talking about how constant noise, scrolling, and distraction can slowly disconnect us from God and even ourselves. Through Moses in Exodus 3, we saw that hidden seasons aren't wasted — and that God often speaks when we finally slow down enough to notice. The invitation was simple, but challenging: Go Silent to Hear God.Q1 — Loudest Place EverBefore we get deep…what's the loudest environment you've ever been in? Did you love it or immediately want to escape?Q2 — The Anxious GenerationYou talked about the tension families feel around devices, social media, and screen time, and referenced The Anxious Generation and The Tech-Wise Family.Can y'all recap some of those ideas and share how you see technology shaping kids, students, and adults right now?Follow-up: How does our Next Gen ministry partner with parents in this?Q3 — When Connectedness Becomes Too MuchJamey, you talked about how constant information and stimulation can actually short-circuit what God wants to do in us.Where have you personally seen anxiety, comparison, or FOMO increase when your attention became too consumed by the noise of the world?Q4 — The Holy Work of NoticingMoses wasn't looking for a spiritual moment — he was just tending sheep when he noticed the burning bush and turned aside.What does it teach us that God spoke after Moses stopped and paid attention?Follow-up: Where might we be moving too fast to notice God right now?Q5 — Noise That Hides GodYou said, “The noise keeps God hidden.”How do we discern the difference between healthy engagement and the kind of noise that dulls our ability to hear God?Follow-up: What are some signs we're becoming spiritually distracted?Q6 — Go Silent to Hear GodThe big idea this week was: Go Silent to Hear God.Why does silence feel so uncomfortable for many of us?Follow-up: What might change in our church and homes if we treated silence as an act of trust instead of emptiness?Q7 — Starting SmallFor someone who wants to practice silence with God but feels awkward or intimidated by it, what's one simple place to start this week?Follow-up: What do we do when God brings a Scripture, person, or quiet nudge to mind?JOIN US SUNDAY!That's all the time we have for today! Be sure to share this episode and invite someone to join you this Sunday as we continue our Losing Myself series at 9 and 10:45.

Have you ever had a moment where life felt heavier than it should, like there was more going on than what you could see? In this message, we explore the reality of spiritual warfare, the lies and distractions the enemy uses, and the truth God has already given us through Jesus to stand firm.

This week's Sesh starts where a lot of great conversations do: realizing you've been trying to smoke an empty vaporizer like an absolute idiot.From there? Chaos.We get into why joints have officially become the preferred method, why glass somehow feels harsher as you get older, rolling paper debates, weird product tangents, and then somehow take a hard left into one of the more honest conversations we've had in a minute.We talk about whether the education system is actually preparing people for real life… or just training people to follow a script that doesn't exist anymore.College degrees.MBAs.Job hunting.Why some companies want ridiculous credentials for jobs that absolutely do not need them.Why younger generations are rethinking work entirely.Why older generations stayed put.And what “valuable work” even means now.We also get into:Why mentorship seems way harder to find nowWhether college is still worth itMike Rowe, dirty jobs, and overlooked careersWhy so many people feel disconnected from the work they doSociety rewarding conflict over contributionMen, employment, and some uncomfortable realities around motivation and purposeBasically… one of those episodes where we started talking about rolling joints and somehow ended up questioning modern civilization.Classic.If you've ever questioned school, your career path, or why adulthood feels like everyone's making it up as they go… this one's for you.Keep the Mic on.Fuel the movement. Keep the conversation going.We keep a running list of tools and brands we personally enjoy and actually use.Find everything in one place here:

Blue Pluto came in swinging.Not soft.Not polite.Not the kind of strain that knocks gently and asks if now is a good time.This one had us coughing early, noticing the pine right away, and then realizing it was less of a body-melter and more of a “sit with yourself for a second” kind of strain.Blue Pluto is an indica-dominant hybrid, usually connected to Pluto Kush crossed with an unknown strain. The public info on this one is pretty thin, so we're not pretending this is some perfectly documented family tree. What we can say is this: it feels like it comes from that Pluto world. Piney, slightly sweet, heady, and a little spacey without fully dragging you into the couch.The likely terpene profile leans toward myrcene, caryophyllene, limonene, and possibly pinene. In normal human words, that means you may notice pine, citrus, spice, earth, and that slightly sharp “back of the lungs” feeling that made this episode start with a cough warning.Effect-wise, Blue Pluto was interesting. It was calming, but not sleepy. Focused, but not racy. Heady, but not foggy. We both noticed it more in the head and neck than as a full-body pain relief strain. This probably would not be my first pick for heavy pain, headaches, or deep relaxation, but for introspection, breathwork, racing, reading, or getting into a focused mental pocket, there's something there.This episode gets into how cannabis changes depending on your mood, stress level, and what your body is already carrying. Same strain, different day, different human, different result.Blue Pluto might not be the superstar strain of the year, but it gave us a real conversation about anxiety, meditation, focus, job stress, breathing, and learning how to actually check in with yourself instead of just bulldozing through the day.A little coughy.A little piney.A little cosmic therapy session in disguise.Keep the Mic on.Fuel the movement.
