Podcasts about Sympathy

Empathy fuels connection｜つながりを生む力 人が苦しみや挑戦を経験しているとき、 私たちはつい何か正しい言葉で慰めようとしてしまいます。 でも、本当に必要なのは fixing ではなく feeling together Empathy is not about saying the right thing. It's about being willing to sit with someone in their experience — without trying to change it. 共感とは、相手の靴を履いて歩いてみること。 その人の感情を理解しようと感じに行くこと。 Sympathy（同情）は、「かわいそうに」という距離を生むけれど、 Empathy（共感）は、「あなたは一人じゃない」とつながりを生む。 "Empathy fuels connection. Sympathy drives disconnection." – Dr. Brené Brown 共感はスキルです。 人として、私たちは自然と同情はできるけれど、 本当の共感には自分の内側に触れる勇気が必要。 このエピソードでは、 「共感」と「同情」の違いを読み解きながら、 人と深くつながるためのpresenceについて話しています。 When you can be with someone without needing to fix them, you become the space where healing begins.   Links

Text a Message to the ShowIn the summer of 2025, one of my patrol officers, Hunter Simoncic, was struck by a car and killed in the line of duty. As part of the grieving process, we are sharing our experiences with you that you might be better prepared for the impossible tasks that immediately follow a line of duty death.One of the most difficult is that of family liaison officer.  A family liaison is assigned to the family of a fallen officer, to advocate for the family's needs, to communicate to them about police traditions and the departments needs, and be the point of contact for the countless questions that arise when everyone has just had their worst possible day.Our guest for this interview is friend of the show Captain Gregg Dorsett.  Captain Dorsett was asked to be a family liaison officer for the Simoncic family and he agreed to let me debrief him and share his experience with you.  To go from police commander and decision maker to family advocate in the midst of strongest possible emotions… well, that's a journey I think everyone can gain from hearing about.Concerns of Police Survivors can help families and coworkers.  Their website is https://www.concernsofpolicesurvivors.orgMusic is by the WesterliesHey Chaplain Podcast Episode 126 Part 2Tags:Family Liaison, Coroner, Family, Funeral Homes, Hospital, Memorials, Morgue, Murder, Paperwork, Planning, Police, Post-Mortem, Processions, Sympathy, Kansas City, KansasSupport the showThanks for Listening!

Acid King formed in San Francisco in 1993, led by guitarist and vocalist Lori S. along with bassist Peter Lucas and drummer Joey Osbourne. Their name was inspired by Ricky Kasso — the real-life “Acid King” from the book Say You Love Satan — and it perfectly captured the band's otherworldly, doom-laden sound. From the start, they stood out in the underground scene for their thick, fuzz-drenched tones and hypnotic, slow-burning riffs that defined the early stoner-doom movement emerging in the '90s.Their debut EP appeared in 1994 through Sympathy for the Record Industry, but it was the 1995 full-length Zoroaster that began to turn heads. Acid King hit their stride with Busse Woods in 1999 on Man's Ruin Records — a cult classic now considered one of the cornerstones of stoner rock. That record combined weighty riffs, atmospheric reverb, and a trippy, meditative flow that set them apart from their peers. Lori S.'s distinctive vocals, part chant and part haze, helped shape the sound that would become their signature.Over the following decades, Acid King released III (2005), Middle of Nowhere, Center of Everywhere (2015), and Beyond Vision (2023). Each album expanded their sound — from the raw biker-doom of the early years to the cinematic, cosmic vibe of their latest work. Despite numerous lineup changes, Lori S. has remained the band's creative core, driving the heavy grooves and mind-bending textures that define Acid King's legacy.Today, Acid King are seen as pioneers of the stoner-doom genre. Their music continues to influence new generations of heavy bands worldwide. With Beyond Vision, they've proven that their blend of fuzzed-out riffs, spacey melodies, and unrelenting heaviness still resonates deeply. Acid King's sound is timeless — a hypnotic journey best experienced loud, late, and lost in the haze. Official Website: acidking.com  • Facebook: facebook.com/AcidkingSF  • Instagram: @acidkingrocks

In this episode, we take on Adam Smith's The Theory of Moral Sentiments. Although he is now more well known as an economist because of his later book The Wealth of Nations, Smith shows himself to be a philosopher in his own right in Moral Sentiments. Smith, contrary to popular characterizations, wanted to show that our conduct is not solely motivated by egoism or selfishness, but that we are also motivated by the fortunes of others. For Smith it is only through sympathy that society can achieve stability and harmony. What follows is a comprehensive examination of how we develop virtue, expound rules for justice, and cultivate emotional maturity through our sympathy for others. This episode is all of you who feel society has become more emotionally dysfunctional, lost its sense of shame, and want to understand why it is so frustrating when our so-called ‘friends' refuse to hate what we hate.

Hebrews 4:14-16 14 Since then we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. 15 For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin. 16 Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

Patti and Pottymouth have entered the “there's always next year” phase of mourning Wildcard losses and have moved on to pondering such issues as “The Blue Jays wouldn't have to visit the White House.” In our hearts we are simultaneously rooting for a SEA/MIL WS matchup and knocking on all the wood. In our “made it to postseason” boyfriend world we have elder statesmen counseling the kids, Ernie and Jackson lighting things up, and Ben Fricking Rice. In our Police Blotter: Fans Behaving Badly, we have BOS fans harassing Cam Schlittler's family online, and the man LIVES in Boston. He seemed to channel his reaction constructively. Although ARAMARK delights PHI fans with its 9-9-9 box of moderation and thematic treats like Bader Tots, it's really quite a corporate horror with its retaliation against unionized ballpark workers and its contract with approximately 100 detention centers. On a related note, LAD majority owner Mark Walter has profited handsomely from enormous private prison contracts with ICE as well as connections to technology tracking immigrants. We salute Seattle mayoral candidate Katie Wilson, who has a platform we can get behind even before she crosstrains with the Mariners in her campaign slogan, “The Big Dumper's City Needs Public Bathrooms.” Pottymouth would very much like you to read Immigration Detention Inc., The Big Business of Locking Up Immigrants, Nancy Hiemstra & Diedre Conlon.We say, “Sympathy wooze,” “porn management,” and “the burrito came in later.” Fight the man, send your game balls to Meredith, get boosted, and find us on Bluesky @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

When I injured my ring finger, I expected months of pain before regaining its full function. As I practiced the prescribed exercises the finger next to it began to throb, so I consulted my doctor. “Sympathy pain,” he said. A branching between the nerves of the ring and pinky fingers causes dependence on one another. If one finger hurts, the other aches in sympathy. The apostle Paul uses the human body to illustrate the uniqueness and unity of God’s people. In 1 Corinthians 12:21–26, he reinforces how valuable each individual member is to the healthy functioning of the whole. Then he turns his attention to the unity achieved when we connect with each other. “If one part suffers, every part suffers with it” (v. 25). His description of the church’s interconnectedness is echoed in these verses, “mourn with those who mourn,” and “carry each other’s burdens” (Romans 12:15; Galatians 6:2). Today, as I extend my hand to greet someone or grab a spoon to prepare a meal for guests, I notice the strain in both my ring finger and my pinky. The various parts of our physical bodies work together to express pain and to strengthen each other toward health. I thank God that He reveals our need for connection to each other in His spiritual body, the church, through sympathy pain.

What if the virtue we've been taught to prize above all others—empathy—has become a weapon that's destroying our families, churches, and society? In this thought-provoking episode of Refining Rhetoric, host Robert Bortins sits down with Dr. Joe Rigney, author of the controversial new book "The Sin of Empathy: Compassion and Its Counterfeits." Dr. Rigney, who serves as Fellow of Theology at New St. Andrews College and is a pastor at Christ's Church, makes a bold argument that will challenge everything you think you know about compassion. Using the powerful analogy of someone drowning in quicksand, Dr. Rigney distinguishes between biblical compassion—which reaches out to help while remaining anchored to truth—and what he calls "untethered empathy," which jumps into the pit with both feet, creating two drowning victims instead of one. This counterfeit virtue, he argues, has been weaponized across cultural battlegrounds from immigration and abortion to the transgender movement, demanding that we validate feelings regardless of truth or moral consequences. The conversation explores how this emotional manipulation has infiltrated churches, schools, and homes through Social Emotional Learning curricula, creating what Dr. Rigney calls "the institutionalization of the pity party." From the redefinition of marriage to the mutilation of confused children in the name of "gender-affirming care," he traces how untethered empathy leads through a predictable progression: pity to anger to cruelty—all while flying the banner of compassion.   Resources: https://x.com/joe_rigney   https://canonpress.com/products/the-sin-of-empathy   This episode of Refining Rhetoric is sponsored by the Classical Learning Cohort: Are you a CC parent or graduate wanting to become a more confident classical educator?

Today, on Like It Matters Radio, Mr. Black wants listeners to consider three words: Sympathy, Empathy and Compassion. These three words are on a continuum of emotional involvement. These three words are progression, a building up to the point of doing something to ease the pain. Sympathy is recognizing someone’s suffering and feeling sorry for them. Empathy is ‘walking a mile’ in someone else’s shoes and feeling what they feel. Compassion is empathy with a desire to help or make things right. Where are you on the spectrum? In an America that wants us to focus on the differences, do you have pity, have understanding, or take action to ease others’ pain? Sympathy is the first step it opens the heart. Empathy builds bridges- it connects us to others’ pain. Compassion transforms- it moves from guilt and pity to growth and help. This is what Jesus said when He said, ‘When I was in prison you visited me, when I was hungry you gave me something to eat, and when I was thirsty you gave me drink.” On today’s hour of Power Mr. Black is going to stir up some compassion for those less fortunate than ourselves, with a primary focus on people behind bars!
