The August 1991 issue has a few pop culture topics to go deep on. Guns 'N Roses gets covered with a What Now concert review AND a review of Danny Sugerman's very pretentious-sounding book about them in the brand-new column Read It (though probably don't; it only earns one pip as the month's book bomb). Paula Abdul gets a bomb review of her new album Spellbound AND name-checked as "Paula Abdrool" in the Keanu Reeves/Alex Winter cover Q&A. Otherwise, we get a lot of material we might like more coverage on, like: Siouxsie And The Banshees' Superstition; Ethan Hawke's Mystery Date hair; Tori Spelling's 18th birthday party; and what Anne L. could not have foreseen would be an incredible revolving door of BulletBoys. You don't need an extra arm à la The Dark Backward to enjoy our commentary on all of the above and more!QUICK LINKS

This week on the Ante Up Poker Podcast, we've got a full table and plenty to talk about. On Table Talk, Elle and I welcome Tia Bacon from Gila River to the show as we take a deep dive into the upcoming Ante Up Poker Tour stop at Gila River Lone Butte. We talk about what players can expect, the excitement building around the series, and why this is shaping up to be a can't-miss event. We also spotlight the incredible work being done through Camp One Step's charity poker efforts, and how this community continues to show up when it matters most. If you would like to sign up for Camp One Step here is the link. We also recap Sunday's prop bets — some wins, some losses, and maybe a little humility thrown in for good measure. On Call the Floor, Elliott weighs in on a tournament situation where a player didn't get their rebuy in on time. Was it a tough break or just part of the rules? You know Elliott will break it down from the tournament director's perspective. In this week's Hand of the Week, Patrick and I analyze a hand featuring AQ and dig into the decision points street by street. And I close things out with Joe's One Outer, talking about superstition in poker — because it's Friday the 13th, and whether you believe in lucky charms or not, the mental game is always real. It's strategy, stories, rulings, laughs, and a little bit of luck — just the way we like it. Click here for our Linktree.

It's Friday the 13th! Psychic Carla Baron talks about cultural superstitions + answers a few random personal questions from the *live* audience tonight.
Connect with Mel Connect with Coach MikkiWhat if “unlucky” is just a story we inherited, and we're free to rewrite it? We kick things off with Friday the 13th and follow the thread through Norse myths, the Last Supper, and the Knights Templar to see how fear gathers power over time. Then we flip the script with Galentine's Day, turning a date with a bad reputation into a bright spot for friendship, humor, and everyday love that doesn't wait for a calendar prompt.From there, we lose it in laughter talking about the rituals we learned as kids, honking through tunnels, lifting our feet over railroad tracks, counting cows until a cemetery reset, still echo in how we chase luck and ward off jitters. We share the nostalgia of vintage toys and board games (yes, Operation's terrifying buzz and Monopoly debt at age 10), plus the handmade Barbie outfits that prove fashion really does come back around—hello again, shoulder pads. These memories aren't just cute; they're a map of how culture changes and how we choose what to keep.We also open up about what we're building now. Mel's crafting seasonal word search books, sketching cozy mysteries, and launching a stock photo portfolio. Mickey's fresh off a keynote on why comfort zones kill success and is racing to finish a new book before a small East Coast signing tour. Creativity becomes our counterspell to superstition: show up, make something, share it. That's how we make our own luck.If you've ever wondered why 13 feels spooky, whether numerology helps or hinders, or how a sitcom joke turned into a global celebration of women's friendship, you'll feel right at home here. Come for the folklore and stay for the heart, the laughs, and the reminder that joy lands best when it's shared. If this conversation made you smile, subscribe, share it with a friend, and leave a quick review, what superstition are you still carrying?

Thank you all !!! About Wayne: Wayne is the Author of the Vampyre Tales Series. He began writing when he was in grade school because he found it relaxed him, and helped him to “escape” the real world. As time went on, he was given the opportunity to teach a drama class at a local high school, to which he accepted and focused on the importance of stage presence and character building. This later led to a request that would change everything for him. He was asked to create a “believable” Vampire character, and not only did he comply, but his character went on to become his personal persona that would later thrive as the main character of the Vampyre Tales. His books have been taking vampire fans on a journey of their own, leaving a trail of rave reviews and one award thus far, and it's only the beginning. He was also the “head vampire” for one of Canada‘s largest theme parks, for the Halloween season several years running which attracted the attention of other organizations. He was hired as a consultant, to build their theatrical haunted houses for the and Screamers in Ottawa Ontario Canada, operated by the Kiwanis was the first, then went on to become a well-known Halloween hotspot . Being non for profit, other Kiwanis divisions throughout the country have since based their Halloween haunts on the Ottawa location, and the creativity behind the origins, have come from Wayne Mallows. Wayne owned a haunted Gothic Revival Manor House for over a decade, and is no Stranger to the Paranormal He has also appeared on paranormal television, with a few honourable mentions being Paranormal Survivor S3, Paranormal Night Shift, There's No Such Thing as Ghosts, Much Music, and more.

"Everything happens for a reason.” It sounds comforting. It sounds spiritual. But is it actually biblical?In this episode of The Mobilized Church Podcast, we challenge one of the most common Christian phrases and expose how easily superstition, fatalism, and hyper-determinism can slip into our theology. When believers assume every event is scripted or micromanaged by God, it quietly reshapes how we view evil, responsibility, prayer, obedience, and mission.We unpack the difference between God's sovereignty and superstition, permission and authorship, redemption and causation. Scripture does not portray God as the author of sin or humans as puppets. It calls us to trust God's revealed character, take responsibility for our obedience, and actively partner with Him in advancing the Kingdom.This conversation matters because disciple-making does not thrive in passivity. Movements stall when believers stop believing their obedience actually matters.If you've ever wrestled with suffering, God's will, or the tension between sovereignty and human responsibility, this episode will help you replace fatalism with biblical faith and resignation with Spirit-led action.

Badalaan de ohle da Suraj- Balwant Phalwari | ਬੱਦਲਾਂ ਦੇ ਓਹਲੇ ਦਾ ਸੂਰਜ!- ਬਲਵੰਤ ਫ਼ਰਵਾਲੀ | A daughter's illness, a father's pain, and a crisis of faith... This compelling short story by Balwant Phulwari follows the life of Comrade Gurmeet Singh, a staunch communist and socialist whose principles were forged in his university days. He champions logic, equality, and rational thought. Yet, a desperate situation—his daughter Neha's mysterious declining health—forces him into a setting he despises: the religious gathering (Dera) of Baba Phuman. Gurmeet finds himself sitting among the devotees, silently pitying their blind faith, even as he hopes the 'Baba' might cure his child. The arrival of local politicians underscores the very hypocrisy he fights against. Will he sacrifice his lifelong atheist beliefs for the chance of a miracle? What happens when it is his turn to bring Neha forward for blessings? An unexpected event occurs at the Dera that reaffirms Gurmeet's socialist ideology and changes the course of the day. This is a deep dive into the conflict between Superstition vs. Logic and the idealism of communism versus the harsh realities of modern Punjabi society. Don't miss the powerful climax of this classic Punjabi short story! The cover art of this audiobook has been made by Artist Gurdish Pannu and Dr. Ruminder has given voice to this Punjabi short story.#newpunjabistory #newpunjabistoryaudio #punjabikahani #listenpunjabikahani #punjabistorynew #punjabshortstories #punjabishortkahani #punjabikahaniyan #punjabimoral stories #NewPunjabiaudiobooks #newpunjabikahani #interestingpunjabistories #punjabiaudiobooks #famouspunjabi stories #punjabikahani #punjabishortkahani #verygoodpunjabikahani # punjabiaudiokahani #punjabistoriesnew #navipunjabikahani #punjabinewstory #audiostorypunjabi #moralstoriespunjabi

“Is Lent works-based superstition?” This question opens a discussion on the nature of Lent and its significance in Catholic practice. Other topics include guidance for those considering confession, the complexities of excommunication related to abortion, and the relationship between Tradition and Scripture. Join the Catholic Answers Live Club Newsletter Invite our apologists to speak at your parish! Visit Catholicanswersspeakers.com Questions Covered: 01:24 – Is Lent works-based Catholic superstition? 04:41 – I'm leaning towards Catholicism. If I decide to go to confession, what’s the best way of going about it? 12:18 – Why if you help someone get an abortion, you’re automatically excommunicated but not if you murder someone? 15:21 – How can I bring the gospel to my family? 29:48 – If Tradition and scripture are of equal authority, then why can tradition change and evolve but scripture can't? 42:38 – I'm looking into Catholicism, but my Catholic friends won't talk to me about it. I even went to a Catholic Church and even the priest wouldn't give me more resources. Can you shed some light on this?

In this Thinking Talmudist episode on Gittin 57a, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe concludes the tragic stories of Kfar Sekania's destruction and delves into the Roman massacre of Betar (Beitar), using it to illustrate the dangers of reckless reaction and the power of lashon hara (slander) in causing national catastrophe.The Gemara recounts how Betar's custom of planting cedar trees for boys and pine for girls—later used for wedding canopies—led to disaster: when Caesar's daughter's carriage broke, her attendants cut down a local cedar, prompting Jews to attack them in outrage. This sparked Roman retaliation, resulting in the slaughter of millions (80,000 division leaders entering, blood flowing to the sea, streets running red). The destruction stemmed from overreaction to a perceived personal affront (the tree symbolizing a child's future), mirroring how lashon hara about Eretz Yisrael by the spies doomed a generation.The rabbi emphasizes intentional Jewish living over myths (e.g., tattoos or lashon hara barring burial), urging daily teshuva and vibrancy in mitzvot. He shares powerful personal reflections on family purity laws (niddah): physical separation (no touching, separate beds) creates 12 annual honeymoons, nurturing emotional depth and preventing relationships from becoming stale or objectified—preserving long-term love and holiness.The episode closes with a call to invest in authentic Judaism now, not just "die Jewish," and to recognize that all is in Hashem's hand._____________The Thinking Talmudist Podcast shares select teachings of Talmud in a fresh, insightful and meaningful way. Many claim that they cannot learn Talmud because it is in ancient Aramaic or the concepts are too difficult. Well, no more excuses. In this podcast you will experience the refreshing and eye-opening teachings while gaining an amazing appreciation for the divine wisdom of the Torah and the depths of the Talmud._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by David & Susan MarbinRecorded at TORCH Meyerland in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on January 9, 2026, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on January 23, 2026_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/thinking-talmudist-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1648951154Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0cZ7q9bGYSBYSPQfJvwgzmShare your questions at aw@torchweb.org or visit torchweb.org for more Torah content._____________About the Host:Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Director of TORCH in Houston, brings decades of Torah scholarship to guide listeners in applying Jewish wisdom to daily life.

Beat Migs! We ask the rockaholics about theirs.
We begin this week in 1970's Sardinia, where a quiet, deeply devout teenage girl began to wake up every night at exactly 3:00 a.m., convinced something terrible was standing next to her bed… watching her… and waiting to enter her. Then we head to Christmas Day, 1929, when a well-liked North Carolina farmer committed the unspeakable. Has it spawned paranormal activity? Then we find ourselves visiting the same house, ten years apart, both times the home is for sale and empty... or is it? Lastly, a sweet, sad and comforting tale of a couple so deeply connected, not even death can keep them apart. Do you want to get all of our episodes a WEEK early, ad free?
