Larry Alex Taunton critiques Tucker Carlson's comments about Franklin Graham quoting Esther and argues Carlson dishonestly portrays Esther as a Jewish “genocide of Persians” to attack Jews, Israel, and ultimately God while trying to keep Christian listeners by claiming Esther isn't really canonical. Taunton contends the 75,000 killed were not Persians but Amalekites aligned with Haman's plot to annihilate the Jews, and that King Xerxes permitted Jewish self-defense, noting the Jews did not plunder. He defends Esther's place in the canon, compares its implicit providence to Tolkien, and says other biblical books also omit God's name. Taunton claims Carlson is increasingly aligned with Islam and uncomfortable with biblical violence, then argues God-ordained judgment appears throughout Scripture and should be approached with reverence, repentance, and submission to God's justice and grace.

The rumors are circulating that Tucker was tipping off the Iranians. What's going on here? Larry Alex Taunton is Host of Ideas Have Consequences, and he breaks down the direction of the Candance, Tucker, and Megyn spectrum of influencers.

The episode features a discussion with Larry Alex Taunton about his Federalist article arguing Western—especially Biden administration—policies helped create conditions for the October 7 Hamas attacks by releasing over $6 billion to Iran, easing oil embargoes, and funding UNRWA, which he claims functions as an arm of Hamas. The host also plays a clip of Nick Fuentes calling to “shut down” the administration in 2026; Taunton dismisses Fuentes as hateful, ignorant, and fascistic. The conversation expands to claims that Arab states use money, universities, protests, and social-media bots to shape U.S. opinion, and to warnings about growing Islam-related threats tied to immigration, DHS watchlist releases, and mosque growth. Taunton argues Islam is incompatible with constitutional freedoms and says Iran is a primary driver of terrorism, supporting Trump's strike on Iran as “America first.” ✉️ Get all the content I can't share publicly directly in your inbox… https://join.larrytaunton.com/ ✉️ Get all the content I can't share publicly directly in your inbox… https://join.larrytaunton.com/

Boots on the Ground: Gaza, October 7, and the USAID Cairo Standoff Host Larry Alex Taunton explains why he stayed largely silent on the Israel–Gaza war until gathering firsthand information in Egypt and Israel. He recounts entering the fortified USAID compound in Cairo, triggering a prolonged standoff involving Cairo police and Egyptian secret police who demanded his phone, passport, and compliance, and he describes later being “swatted” at home by heavily armed police after a false mass-shooting call. Taunton says Israel allowed broad access, including briefings from Israeli officials and travel to the Gaza border, and he argues October 7, 2023 was a large-scale, multi-site act of war involving about 7,000 attackers, rockets, and extensive planning aided by foreign support and Gaza work-visa intelligence gathering. He rejects conspiracy theories, criticizes UNRWA's bias, and ends with details about Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar's history, including Israeli surgery that saved his life before a 2011 prisoner swap.

In early December of last year, two thefts took place in Taunton, Massachusetts, that involved two usually wonderful things: lobster and logistics.  The stolen property was valued at $400,000: approximately $250,000 worth of lobster and $150,000 in crabmeat. Both thefts took place at the same warehouse. The crimes were a massive hit to all of the businesses involved at one of the most critical times of the year. Unfortunately, this kind of fraud-based theft is all too common. Even more unfortunately, the opportunity to steal this property was created by security lapses in the supply chain. Significant effort went into tricking the warehouse to hand over the seafood, but it worked. In this episode of the Art of Supply podcast, Kelly Barner covers: The theft: who, what, where, and when How common this form of theft is, and the multi-agency law enforcement effort that is being mounted in response All of the forms of cost associated with 'fictitious pickups' Links: Kelly Barner on LinkedIn Art of Supply LinkedIn newsletter  Art of Supply on AOP Subscribe to This Week in Procurement

In this Dental Leaders episode, Payman sits down with Fabian Farbahi, a 22-year-old Sheffield dental student who's already mastered something most people spend decades learning: the power of genuine conversation. Fabian spends 3.5-hour train journeys striking up chats with strangers because he's fascinated by people's stories—the same curiosity that drove him to become president of Sheffield's dental student society and spend two months on elective in Brazil learning Portuguese. They discuss Fabian's refreshingly unformed career path—he's drawn to oral surgery, intrigued by sports dentistry, passionate about public health behaviour change, and comfortable not knowing exactly which direction he'll take. The conversation covers his transformation from small-town student to confident stage presenter, lessons learned managing volunteers without pay, and why the best time to take business risks is when you're young. What emerges is someone who understands that dentistry isn't just about teeth—it's about connection, communication, and throwing yourself into uncomfortable situations until they become second nature.In This Episode00:03:35 - Choosing Sheffield and moving north00:06:45 - Clinical mistakes and university challenges00:07:40 - Student society presidency00:11:25 - Train conversations and connecting with strangers00:14:20 - Getting into dental school struggles00:17:40 - Career interests: implants, oral surgery, sports dentistry00:20:35 - Public health and behaviour change00:26:15 - Implantology path and the dip00:30:05 - Practice ownership versus travel ambitions00:32:20 - Two-month Brazil elective experience00:41:20 - Six-year projections and taking risks young00:44:30 - Managing people without payment00:50:15 - Business culture and leadership style00:54:50 - FDI World Dental Congress in Istanbul00:58:20 - Shadowing at Evo Dental01:01:30 - Sponsor hunting and sales lessons01:06:00 - Finding confidence through reinvention01:08:50 - Fantasy dinner partyAbout Fabian FarbahiFabian Farbahi is a fourth-year Sheffield dental student who served as president of the Sheffield University Dental Student Society.

In this episode of 'Ideas Have Consequences,' Larry Alex Taunton delves into the reasons behind the Western scholarly community's difficulty in understanding the intrinsic connections between Islam and violent actions perpetrated in its name. Through a critique of historical and contemporary literature, Taunton examines the secular bias that often clouds academic analysis. He also highlights the importance of understanding religious perspectives by recommending Aurora Martiganian's book, 'Ravished Armenia,' as a crucial read for grasping the true nature of Islam. The episode explores the broader implications of misattributing the roots of Islamic violence, urging a reevaluation of how political correctness and woke culture are hindering genuine understanding and effective responses to radical ideologies. Additionally, Taunton draws parallels with other historical ideologies, emphasizing the need for a holistic grasp of belief systems to prevent future atrocities.  

What's happening with persecuted Christians in Nigeria? In this episode of the Missions Podcast, Alex and Scott talk with Larry Alex Taunton, an author and apologist, who shares his firsthand experience witnessing Christian persecution in Nigeria. Taunton recounts his journey to the country's northern region, where he saw the devastating effects of what he calls a “genocide against Christians.” He describes traveling through burned villages, military checkpoints, and communities living in constant fear of attacks by Boko Haram and Fulani militants. Through personal experience, Taunton highlights the courage of Nigerian Christians who remain steadfast in their faith despite extreme danger. His central message is that the Western church has largely ignored this persecution, and that believers in safer nations must recognize their responsibility to speak out and advocate for action. Alex and Scott end with a call to combine compassion, truth, and courage—to both confront injustice and advance the mission of Christ. Key Topics: Larry Taunton's firsthand experience in northern Nigeria and exposure to Christian persecution. The role of Boko Haram and Fulani herdsmen in anti-Christian violence. The silence and suppression of the issue by Western media and international organizations. The moral and spiritual responsibility of the Western church to respond. Do you love The Missions Podcast?

The boys discover a peculiar cult boasting not one, but two Jesuses. Yowzah! Must be pretty awkward at Christmas. James whisks Alasdair off to the commune of the Agapemonites: a scandalous Victorian sect nestled in the sauciest region of Somerset. (Well, a few miles north of Taunton.) There's a little extra spice in the mix, because James has noticed that the word "sects" sounds a bit rude. See Alasdair On Tour in 2026!

On the evening of May 10, 1988, a passing driver on Howard Street in Brockton, MA, stopped to investigate something unusual on the side of the road. When the driver got closer to what they thought was a bag, they realized it was actually the body of twenty-four-year-old Anthony LoConte, bleeding badly from injuries to his face and head.Initially, investigators believed LoConte was the victim of a hit-and-run accident; however, when the coroner examined the body, he discovered a bullet hole in the back of LoConte's head, indicating that he'd been murdered.It took twelve years for investigators to track down LoConte's killer, but in the winter of 2000, California Highway Patrol arrested Robert Morganti on drug charges and a quick background check connected them to a 1988 warrant for Morganti for the murder of Anthony LoConte. Robert Morganti was extradited back to Massachusetts, where he was tried, convicted, and sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole for LoConte's murder. However, due to a controversial 2024 law concerning life sentences for young offenders, Robert Morganti could be granted parole in the near future.Consider signing the petition by visiting https://www.change.org/p/help-uncle-tony-uphold-mandatory-life-sentences-in-massachusetts-bill-s942 .Thank you to the Incredible Dave White of Bring Me the Axe Podcast for research and Writing support!ReferencesBoston Globe. 1988.

Today we have Santino. He is 37 years old from Taunton, MA and took his last drink on May 24th, 2022.   This episode brought to you by Better Help – 10% off of your first month Exact Nature use code RE20 to save 20% off your order   Recovery Elevator has merch! We have hoodies, patches, shirts, tank tops and bracelets. Help us keep this project going and shred the shame!   Last call for registration to our sober travel trip to Peru. Registration closes tomorrow June 3rd.   A study on the state of restaurants revealed that 40% of restaurants in 2025 plan to dedicate more space on their menus for alcohol-free drink offerings. And Door Dash reported an 82% jump in non-alcoholic beer orders in 2025 alone. Things are changing and they are changing fast!   [03:29] Thoughts from Paul:   On episode 527, Paul talked about how Gallitin County, Montana is the drunkest place in America. Ironically, this is where much of this podcast is recorded, and this is where Paul got sober. We are reminded that quitting drinking can happen wherever, whenever, regardless of how drunk we think our cities/counties/states are.   Recently Paul read in a newsletter about a local event that said, “come join us for a night of alcohol-free country line dancing, swing dancing and two step”. Paul reached out to the organization putting it on and they thanked him for his support and said that they believe that country, swing and line dancing shouldn't be exclusive to bars.   We at Recovery Elevator couldn't agree more. Rule 22 for the win!   [08:18] Paul introduces Santino:   This is Santino's fourth appearance on the podcast. He first appeared on episode 397, and then returned for episodes 449 and 491.   Santino is 37 years old, has been married for 10 years and they have two children aged six and almost one. He is originally from the Midwest but currently lives in Massachusetts. Santino is currently working on writing a memoir regarding his childhood.   Drinking got out of control for Santino in his late twenties when he realized he was becoming a daily drinker. Trying to moderate didn't work as the line in the sand got further and further away for him and he was drinking in isolation. Santino says before he could reconcile with the fact that he didn't know how to stop, he had to first define what an alcoholic was.   Santino had dabbled in AA in the past while in active addiction as well as during a court order after a DUI. He never identified with it because he wasn't ready to quit. After reconciling that he had a problem, he started going to AA regularly and participated in the meetings. Santino really resonated with the idea of a higher power.   The first six months into his recovery Santino says he struggled with shame. Coming to terms with his past is something that he knows he will be living with indefinitely.   Santino works in the addiction field and understands that relapses can be part of many people's recovery. And while he feels that relapse isn't a bad thing but is greatly stigmatized.   Santino says the most profound healing that took place when he stopped drinking was his perception of himself. He stopped putting so much stock into how other people viewed him.   To put his years of sobriety in terms of themes, Santino shares that the first year was “darkness” the second year was “climbing” and the third year so far has been “practice”.   Since Santino's last interview he has welcomed his second son, continued to work on his relationships, still has the same job with the homeless and people with addictions, and working on being the best dad he can be to his two sons.   Santino's parting piece of guidance: you have to treat sobriety like you would treat anything else delicate in your life. It requires carefulness, it requires mindfulness, but it also requires full vulnerability.   Recovery Elevator You took the elevator down. You have got to take the stairs back up.
