Nick Alberga & Jay Rosehill are joined by Toronto Sun columnist Steve Simmons to break down the fallout from the Maple Leafs' trade deadline and where the organization goes from here. Simmons weighs in on Toronto being sellers for the first time in a decade, why he believes the Leafs likely won't finish bottom five (and could lose their first-round pick to Boston from the Carlo trade), and why he thought the team's deadline was “fine” given the circumstances.They also discuss the future of the front office and coaching staff, including why Simmons doesn't sense an appetite to move on from Brad Treliving this summer—and why there's a scenario where both Treliving and Craig Berube return next season. Plus, Simmons revisits the idea he floated of Chris Pronger as a potential team president, while noting there still may not be interest from MLSE in bringing back the position after Brendan Shanahan's departure.Additionally, the conversation touches on the Leafs' biggest organizational issue—roster construction—Auston Matthews' dip in production under Berube, the impact injuries had on the season going off the rails, and how the blame should be distributed for a disastrous campaign.#LeafsForever #LeafsMorningTake

In this short follow-up video, former Plymouth Brethren member Steve Simmons responds to the growing controversy surrounding the Plymouth Brethren Christian Church (PBCC) and its use of legal action against former members who speak out.Steve urges Brethren members to watch the Get A Life Podcast episode “Corruption Creek”, episode 161, which exposes serious allegations of abuse, cover-ups, and the legal pressure being used against whistleblowers.He raises difficult questions for the church leadership and the Global Advisory Panel:• Why is legal action the first response to criticism?• Why are enormous sums spent protecting the reputation of organizations like the Rapid Relief Team (RRT)?• When criticism arises, should the response be legal action or accountability and compassion?Steve also highlights several cases involving former members who have faced lawsuits, intimidation, or ostracism after speaking out. In this video he references situations involving individuals such as Peter Bishop, Caleb Hall, and senior PBCC leader Bruce Hales, raising questions about the role of leadership and the increasing reliance on legal action within the church.This video is a call for transparency, accountability, and justice.

This video is addressed directly to the Plymouth Brethren Christian Church. Steve Simmons has been a fierce advocate for Cheryl in her fight for justice, and in this message he says what the PBCC continues to refuse to say themselves. While serious and well-documented allegations remain unanswered, the church has chosen silence and that silence is deliberate. The PBCC has continued to push out carefully staged videos projecting compassion and moral authority while refusing to deal with the harm done in its name. Steve tears through that hypocrisy and calls it exactly what it is: image management instead of accountability. He ends with a clear warning — stop producing any more pathetic videos and deal with this matter. Until there is truth, responsibility, and action, the PBCC has no credibility and nothing worth broadcasting.Link for insiders- https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/hc82o3a83ceti9htsbd13/Steve-Simmons-video-for-Lawsuit-against-Cheryl.mp4?rlkey=ov4njpfuq2lwqar6ttm1bx86p&st=o0zzehlj&dl=0

The Plymouth Brethren Christian Church's charitable arm, the Rapid Relief Team (RRT), has launched a legal SLAPP action against Cheryl and the Get A Life podcast. Filed in California, the lawsuit accuses Cheryl of copyright infringement over RRT's “Cookie Bird” cartoon mascot. The claim is false and dishonest — and it serves a far more serious purpose than protecting a cringeworthy cartoon kookaburra.Alan Drever, the Maple Creek PBCC elder accused of sexually abusing and trafficking Cheryl, is also an RRT volunteer. He appears publicly outside Maple Creek Town Hall representing the church and claiming to act in the name of Christian “care and compassion.” After Cheryl obtained a recorded confession from Alan, she wrote directly to PBCC leader Bruce Hales, asking the church to take responsibility for the abuse she suffered inside the cult. No response came from the “Man of God.” What came instead was a lawsuit.The action targets Cheryl personally, but it also targets the Get A Life podcast and by extension, every former PBCC member who has spoken publicly through that platform.In this episode, Cheryl and Richard walk through the full timeline, backed by documentation. This includes the recording of Alan Drever's confession, disturbing historical links involving Dean Hales and Lloyd (Merrick) Grimshaw, and guest contributions from cult expert Anke Richter and ex-PBCC member Steve Simmons, who offer their own unfiltered assessments of what is unfolding. This episode lays out how a corrupt charity responds when a survivor asks for accountability and how the legal system is abused to silence a whistleblower.Link for insiders- https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/j1u7egpyqlwgdvneg9mht/45000-160.mp4?rlkey=oysxsiryu449uoeok8pt148ey&st=agnftau0&dl=0Link to Legal documents- https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Vs70rXTmfJBscBPX1gDnIR8mFfUl2cRi/view?usp=sharingLink to Cheryl's podcast on Blackballed- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4_mcx-f4LQCanadaland article- https://www.canadaland.com/plymouth-brethren-christian-church-members-under-rcmp-investigation-for-alleged-sexual-abuse-in-saskatchewan/Link to Mick Dover Audio- https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-09-15/exclusive-brethren-plymouth-alleged-abuse-nda-four-corners/105762208Article to Michael Bachelard death threat- https://archive.ph/XMRyVTo share your story or be a guest on the show, email info.getalife@proton.meGet a Life Paypal donations -https://www.paypal.me/getalifepodcastGet a Life GoFundMe-https://gofund.me/614bcd06Olive Leaf Network- https://oliveleaf.network/Thinking of Leaving Pamphlet and resources - https://oliveleaf.network/resources/Link to Anchor/Spotify- https://open.spotify.com/show/4GhNv1hZp6tjfLyA4s6PMu?si=Gs5euyWpT4y7lOS8OTe4XAPreston Down Trust Decision-https://www.gov.uk/government/news/commission-publishes-report-on-the-preston-down-trustAberdeen incident- https://drive.google.com/file/d/1riImgAqwaqGwjYq6vRQIr4_jscJA0eQN/view?usp=drive_linkIf we walk in the light letters-https://drive.google.com/file/d/14WlgJladl1r95YGxW0FbZ0prYfjlg7FU/view?usp=sharingAdmin/Legal email address:stouffvillelegal-gal@protonmail.comOffice address:22 Braid BendStouffville ONL4A 1R7#plymouthbrethrenchristianchurch #pbcc #abuse #church #cult #religion #trauma #religioustrauma #sexualabuse #mindcontrol #brainwashing #conversation #exmembers #exposingtruth #expose #exposure #whistleblower #getalifepodcast #getalife #podcast #rules #strict #exclusivebrethren #brucehales #BruceHales #BDH #BruceDHales #UniversalBusinessTeam #UBT #RRT #RapidReliefTeam #Aberdeen #OneSchoolGlobal #OSG #johnhales #shutup #withdrawnfrom #worldly #excommunicate #assemblydeath #christiansect #christiancult #canadiancult #canadiansect #sect #worldwidesect #worldwidecult #cultescape #cultescapestory #bully #bullying #brokenfamily #awareness #cultescape #cultandculturepodcast #cultescapee #cultescapeer #cultescapeeinterview #askingforhelp #unispace
