In the first of a feature-length deep dive into the original hour-long series, Oliver Crocker makes his debut on an Obbo as two podcasters join forces to celebrate the Galloway Years. What Patrick didn't know at the time of recording was that Oliver had ghostwritten the true crime memoir of Barry Appleton - the original police advisor and writer of 50 hard-hitting The Bill scripts. Barry had an astonishing career as a bobby on the beat, later joining the Flying Squad and working on some major cases.

The Civil Rights Division of the Department of Justice was founded in 1957 to ensure fairness in a union struggling to become more perfect. Yet somewhere along the way, bad actors saw an opportunity to play with the scales while Justice donned her blindfold. Our new Assistant Attorney General of the division is Ricochet's dear friend Harmeet Dhillon — and she's back to remind Americans that Justice has an enforcement arm. Harmeet gets us up to speed on her team's investigation into the latest riot at UC Berkeley; reports on how they've handled the workload with only one-third of the manpower; and reiterates the righteousness of the division's purpose while clarifying how she and the ambitious lawyers under her plan to balance the scales on a level playing field. James, Steve, and Peter weigh the president's approval numbers on the economy and foreign policy; and they have reason to believe that Democrats will continue to be hardest hit as Epstein files work their way to the public. Sound clip from this week's open: TPUSA spokesman Andrew Kolvet explains how UC Berkeley administrators worked to undermine their event last week.

This week my guest on The Talk Music Podcast is powerhouse vocalist Rick Hughes — known for fronting Canadian metal titans SWORD. (METALLICA are such huge fans they personally invited the band to open for them)With a career that blasted off in the 80s metal scene and took him around the world, Rick is now stepping forward with REDEMPTION, his first international solo album. It's a spectacular production thats bold, authentic and heartfelt. What makes REDEMPTION especially electrifying is the sheer scale of Rick's vision. He reunited the legendary Ozzy Osbourne Speak of the Devil lineup (Brad Gillis [currently in Night Ranger], Rudy Sarzo, and Tommy Aldridge) for his lead single “The Real Me,” a The Who cover that earned a rare 10/10 review and was praised as “a perfect journey” with a vibrant, modern sound. The album blends blistering rock energy with emotional depth, bilingual tracks and guest appearances from heavy hitters like Robby Krieger (The Doors), Lee Aaron, Amy Keys, and rising guitarist Jacob Deraps. This is Rick Hughes fully inspired, making the album he always dreamed of. We go deep into the inside story behind his powerhouse vocals, how his all-star collaborations came about, and the unstoppable passion driving REDEMPTION.You won't want to miss this one. Enjoy!

Ezekiel - Parable of the Sword of the Lord, The Instrument of God's Judgment, The Sins of Israel

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be?"— Marianne WilliamsonSHOW NOTES EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS You are already complete: You can never be more co-raised or co-elevated than you are right now, co-seated with Christ. Our growth is only in the awareness of this truth. The Sanctuary is Personal: Your place of comfort is uniquely designed by God and reflects your true, beautiful self—the one He sees while sitting inside your spirit. Habitual Renewal is His Work: The consistent renewing of your mind happens by simply pondering the truth of your identity in Christ (Ephesians 4:23). Embrace the Sword of Zayin: Finding ultimate comfort requires allowing the "sword" of God's Word to cut away self-protective mechanisms (such as procrastination and sarcasm) that keep you feeling vulnerable and out of control. Life is too short, the world is too big, and God's love is too great to live ordinary. —Christine Cane

On the 19th November in the year of our Lord 1600,a boy was born in Scotland at Dunfermline Palace - he was the second son and the third child of the King of Scotland, James VI.Few could have predicted he would one day be king, not just of Scotland, but also of England and Ireland.

Od bardzo dawna zabieraliśmy się za temat filmów, których wyniki finansowe dowodzą, że jako ludzkość nie zasługujemy na dobre rzeczy. To dzieła, które w kinach straciły pieniądze, a potem zyskały status kultowych klasyków. Niektóre są prawdziwymi arcydziełami, inne po prostu były na tyle pomysłowe, że żałujemy, że nie wzbudziły większego zainteresowania. Rozmawiamy o tym, do których z nich warto wrócić.Wspominamy o filmach (w tym honorable mentions):- „Dredd” (2012)- „Pacific Rim” (2013)- „Jupiter: Intronizacja” („Jupiter Ascending”, 2015)- „Matrix Zmartwychwstania” („The Matrix Resurrections”, 2021)- „Tylko kochankowie przeżyją” („Only Lovers Left Alive”, 2013)- „Na skraju jutra” („Edge of Tomorrow”, 2014)- „Trzy tysiące lat tęsknoty” („Three Thousand Years of Longing”, 2022)- „Blade Runner 2049” (2017)- „Luca” (2021)- „The Flash” (2023)- „Robin Hood: Początek” („Robin Hood”, 2018)- „Król Artur: Legenda Miecza” („King Arthur: Legend of the Sword”, 2017)

It's easy to blame “kids these days” when generational tension flares up at work. But beneath the eye rolls and stereotypes are deeper forces (economic shifts, social movements, and broken workplace systems) that shape how each generation sees loyalty, ambition, and success. From Boomers to Gen Z, we've all inherited stories about what work should look like and they don't always fit the world we're in now. In this episode, Rodney Evans sits down with Raven Solomon—author, keynote speaker, and CEO of the Future-Ready Institute—to explore what it really takes to lead across generations. They unpack what leaders need to unlearn in this moment, how Gen Z's relationship to work is reshaping culture, and why inclusion and empathy—not authority—are the future of leadership.

Sword of the Spirit - Battle Ready - Bryan Mowrey - (11/16/25) by Jubilee Church

Pastor Bobby Schuller teaches on the power of proclamation to bring hope and healing, not just to ourselves, but to the hurting and broken world that surrounds us. Proclaim the truth of God's Word with authority and faith, knowing that you wield the Sword of the Spirit, with today's message: "Power of Proclamation."

In this episode of the Western Front Association's Mentioned in Dispatches, Dr Richard Batten, Honorary Research Fellow in History at the University of Exeter, discusses his new book For King and Country: The Role of Patriotism in Mobilisation in the First World War, published by Pen & Sword in 2025. Focusing on Devon but addressing wider national and European themes, the book explores how local elites encouraged men to enlist, enforced wartime discipline and sought to define patriotism, while also showing how ordinary people – especially women and working-class communities – responded to or challenged these ideals.

When the robe becomes a weapon, who can stop the violence? We think of Buddhism as a faith of peace—rooted in compassion, patience, and nonviolence. But across South and Southeast Asia today, the robe is being turned into a weapon, as radical monks and nationalist movements unleash hatred and war. In The Robe and the Sword: How Buddhist Extremism is Shaping Modern Asia (Columbia Global Reports, 2025), acclaimed journalist Sonia Faleiro travels from Sri Lanka's riot-scarred towns to the homes of refugees along the Myanmar border to Thailand's fortified temples, uncovering how militant monks have transformed a tradition of nonviolence into a tool of terror. She reveals how Sri Lanka's Galagoda Aththe Gnanasara incited mobs against Muslims, how Myanmar's Ashin Wirathu helped ignite a genocide, and how elements of Thailand's clergy have entrenched military rule. Through vivid portraits of zealots, survivors, and dissident monks fighting to reclaim their faith, Faleiro delivers an unflinching investigation into the colonial trauma, economic grievances, and political forces fueling a dangerous new extremism. The Robe and the Sword is a searing and indispensable work of narrative nonfiction, urgently needed to understand how sacred traditions are being weaponized—and what is at stake for the future of our interconnected world. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

"If it is gone, human nature tells you someone in power is not going to voluntarily give that power up." Trey answers a follow-up question about whether a future Senate could ever reinstate a filibuster and explains why, in practice, once the 60-vote rule is gone it is unlikely to return. He uses history, Senate precedent, and even a lesson from Sparta to show how the filibuster serves as both a shield and a limit on majority power. Trey also recommends a favorite myth-inspired novel and offers practical advice for frustrated sports fans navigating YouTube TV's carriage dispute. Learn more about your ad choices.

We unpack the moment Rowan's bite forces Aelin's shift, asking what it reveals about mating bonds, fae dominance, and the anatomy of power. We track how SJM mirrors predator imagery between Rowan, Aedion, and Manon, and how that mirroring hints at future alliances. Listener theories dive into: Whether the barrows creature connects to Erawan's shadow army The bite as a precursor to the blood oath Aedion's loyalty vs Chaol's betrayal, and what each says about class and honor How Manon's first flight parallels Aelin's awakening Why the Sword of Orynth might carry more than ancestral weight Full spoilers through the end of Heir of Fire, and light talk of later Throne of Glass books.

Welcome to today's “Identity in the Battle” series, where we continue our exploration of the powerful image Paul gives us in Ephesians 6: the Armor of God. Stephanie Rousselle dives into the spiritual realities of our identity in Christ and how we're equipped to stand strong in spiritual warfare. In our previous episode, (episode 415) we looked at the first few pieces of this armor. So, how do we live victoriously through our spiritual battles? Let's see what Paul has to teach us through his letter to the Ephesians. Context and Purpose Paul sets the stage by reminding us that as followers of Christ, we're engaged in a real, everyday spiritual battle. The “Armor of God” is not just a metaphor; it's a God-given resource to ground us in our identity, empower us, and unite us as the body of Christ. The Shield of Faith Paul's words to the Ephesians brings the shield to life. In Greek, the word is literally “door,” emphasizing its large, protective nature—big enough to hide a soldier entirely. Roman soldiers would lock shields together, signifying unity and teamwork. Alone, we may stand vulnerable, but joined with others in faith, we're nearly impenetrable. The shield also features hinges—faith is “active,” meant to be flexible, adapting to every circumstance. The shield extinguishes “all the flaming arrows of the evil one.” These arrows primarily serve as distractions. Satan often uses “fiery darts” not just to harm, but mostly to divert our attention, separating us from our main purpose and leaving us vulnerable to further attacks. Stephanie reminds us to recognize life's distractions and stay focused—don't mistake the fire for the real enemy! We are challenged to take stock of how many times our faith has shielded us from attack, and to recognize each as a testimony to God's faithfulness. The Helmet of Salvation Just as medicine must be applied—not merely owned—salvation transforms us when we “put it on” daily. The helmet protects our minds from the enemy's lies, renewing our thoughts through daily application. Our salvation is both a present reality and a future inheritance; we're called to live now with the confidence, hope, and abundance Christ offers, not a mindset of spiritual scarcity. The Sword of the Spirit The “sword” is the Word of God—both Scripture and Jesus Himself. Scripture is not merely ink on paper, but alive and active, shaping us as we wield its truths. So, memorizing, speaking, and applying Scripture is our offensive weapon, capable of cutting through lies, confusion, and spiritual strongholds. Prayer as Our Ultimate Weapon Finally, Paul underscores prayer as the glue of our spiritual arsenal. Prayer is not a formality; it's the relational heartbeat with our Commander-in-Chief, Jesus. To kneel in prayer is the only way to stand firm against the enemy. Conclusion: Victory and Identity As believers, we're not called to fight alone. Armor is meant to be worn in unity, our eyes fixed on Jesus, our victorious leader. We're warriors today—clothed for battle—but one day, we'll trade our armor for bridal garments, celebrating our eternal victory in Christ. Until then, let's stand firm, united, and equipped with every spiritual blessing, living out our new identity in Him. Reflection: What distractions (flaming arrows) are keeping you from focusing on your true spiritual battle? Where do you need to “lock shields” with others? How can you apply the helmet of salvation and wield the sword of the Spirit more intentionally this week? Enjoying these reflection questions?
