The guys are on vacation, but the show must go on! We recorded this listener question episode just before heading out, covering everything from the best back-to-back coaster combinations to which IP should come to the parks next, whether Disney would ever tear down the Matterhorn, and which rides sound way better than they actually are. Plus, EB shares two fun stories from a recent Kentucky Kingdom visit — including a station crew member who had absolutely had enough, and a Flying Fox scavenger hunt with a surprisingly solid prize.

Seek God, Stay Close, Tear Down the Idols Speaker: Michael Shockley, ReCreate Church Scripture: 2 Chronicles 15:1-8 Episode Summary In this Father's Day 2026 message, Pastor Michael uses an original skit about King Asa, the Prophet Azariah, and the legendary Shelemiah the Shawarma Guy to bring a timeless message from 2 Chronicles to life. God didn't send a prophet to Asa when things were falling apart - He sent one right after a great victory. Because staying close to God when things are going well may be the hardest thing we're called to do. Key Points - God seeks us out not just when we're in trouble, but after victory - when we're most likely to drift - Seeking God means coming to Him as we are, without straightening up first - He helps us work through the mess - Staying close means not waiting for trouble to remind us we need God - Idols are anything we can't be okay without - the things we run to for identity, comfort, or worth instead of God Main Takeaway Seek God, Stay Close, Tear Down the Idols. God promises He can be found by those who seek Him. But victory, comfort, and success can quietly pull us back into old patterns and habits. It takes courage to recognize what has too much of our heart - and the guts to tear it down. Memorable Quotes - "The Lord is with you while you are with Him. If you seek Him, He will be found by you." - "He made Himself findable." - "Nobody drifts away all at once." - "An idol is the thing we can't be okay without." - "When your soul feels like a shaken-up soda bottle - what do you reach for? If it's not your God, it might be your idol." - "Nothing that pulls you away from The Heavenly Father is making you a promise you can trust." Reflection Question Are there idols - money, success, control, comfort, approval - that have quietly taken too much of your heart? What would it look like to have the courage to tear them down? Tune in to hear the hilarious skit featuring King Asa, Azariah the Prophet, and Shelemiah's Shawarma Shack, and discover why God sends His message right after our victories, not just our failures.

This week, Dennis Allan walks through the Parable of the Barn Builder (or, the Rich Fool). In the kingdom, Jesus makes clear that the life that is truly life is now found in an abundance of possessions. The life that is truly life—namely, Jesus himself—is found when his people use their excess to care for those who have need. Jesus means it when he says, "Whatever you do for the least of these, you do it for me." The barn builder, all on his own, took an abundant harvest and used it to enrich himself even further. What he should've done is brought people from his village together, sought their counsel, and made a communal decision about how to use his newfound abundance. Because, in the first-century, the land was a common good that belonged equally to everyone. It was never meant to become a private good that benefitted some, and not others. The implication is straightforward, but challenging. Our excess, it's obligated to our neighbors. Our abundance, it's meant for the well-being of others. This is the economic life of the kingdom citizens.

Story of the Week (DR):SuperBroIpoDystopia: Some key facts: MMa record-breaking $135 per share with$1.8T valuationTo make that math make sense, analysts estimate the company needs to grow its sales by 50% every single year for the next decadeSpaceX lost $4.9B last yearWall Street is Being Treated Like Order-Takers: Musk pre-set the IPO price strictly at $135 and dictating exactly which investors got allocations. This forced major investment banks like Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley to act as glorified order-takers without even knowing their exact compensation beforehandSaudi Aramco $1.7T; Alibaba: $237B; Facebook $118BNasdaq aggressively pushed through "fast-entry" rule changes specifically to allow mega-caps like SpaceX to bypass the traditional year of seasoning and enter the Nasdaq-100 in just 15 trading days. This forces passive index funds to buy in blindly to avoid tracking errorsMeme stocker bros: $100B in share orders30% of $75B offering is earmarked for individual retail investors. This effectively shifts late-stage, hyper-inflated valuation risk away from institutions and onto the public.BlackRock $5BInstitutional investors admitted that when they bought into SpaceX privately, they were given high-level revenue figures but were denied a copy of the actual balance sheet—an unprecedented lack of transparency for a company raising tens of billionsUniversity of Washington more than 10% of its $17B in assetsUNC about 10%SpaceX will make $75B in proceedsSaudi Aramco $26B; Alibaba $22BElon Musk's Absolute Voting Tyranny (80% of voting power)personal net worth has officially skyrocketed past $1.1TSpaceX's foundational scale was built on the back of the American public, securing over $20 billion in U.S. federal government contracts to fund its rocket developmentAntonio Gracias: personally lent Musk $1M to keep him afloat; his PE firm Valor gave $76MThat $1M lifeline and early institutional backing from 2008 have compounded into what analysts are calling the most lucrative return on a personal favor in business history.The Second-Largest Shareholder: Through various Valor entities, Gracias controls roughly 7.3% of SpaceX's Class A stock (more than 500 million shares)Gracias's stake is officially worth anywhere from $91B to over $140BThis single corporate listing instantly catapults Gracias into the ranks of the world's 50 richest people.The big party: combined valuation of $3.6TAnthropic ($965B) filed confidentially on June 1OpenAI ($1T) filed confidentially on June 8"We have not decided on timing yet; it may be a while because there are things we want to do that are likely easier as a private company.

Morningstar did not respond to a request from CNBC for comment.S&P Dow Jones Indices didn't comment on the letter, but the company noted it had decided not to change its rules regarding indexes: “S&P DJI determined that exceptions to these requirements should not be granted solely based on market capitalization,” it said in a statement to CNBC. “The decision not to adopt the proposed exceptions preserves core index principles by maintaining consistent application of these key requirements.”Democrats ask Goldman Sachs CEO why he's keeping lawyer who said she'd resign over ties to EpsteinGoldman Sachs CEO David Solomon is facing new scrutiny from congressional Democrats over his reported effort to retain the bank's top lawyer months after she said she would resign over revelations about her ties to convicted sex offender Jeffrey EpsteinIn a letter sent Wednesday:U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), Ranking Member of the Senate Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs CommitteeRepresentative Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-IL), Ranking Member of the Subcommittee on Health Care and Financial Services on the House Oversight Committee“Ruemmler ‘educated (Epstein) on how the law differentiates between underage victims of sex crimes and adult prostitutes…'”In February, Ruemmler announced her resignation from Goldman Sachs, effective June 30, 2026: “At the time, you stated that you “reluctantly” accepted Ruemmler's resignation.

“Tear Down the Idol and Come Home" | Big Ten Week 2 by Faith Promise Church

Guest Review - Michael Storm appeared on Political Cadence with Maxx Payne"I had a great time visiting with Phil and Lisa. The casual but organized conversation was open and honest and fair and important. So many conversations are lopsided or just not worth participating in and it's refreshing to just talk and share thoughts and be in the moment while meeting some new and interesting people."August 1980Steve Howe -Lead GuitarTrevor Horn - Lead VocalsGeoff Downs - KeyboardsChris Squire - “Base guitar”10th Studio albumReached no. 2 on UK chartsNo Jon Anderson, no Rick WakemanTrevor Horn - from The Buggles (Video Killed the Radio Star) on vocals. Trevor Horn replaced Wakeman.Jon Anderson is not on this album - Jon tended to bring his family and nanny on tour to great expense, and this grated on the band.The album was more of a new wave transition from albums like songs from topographic oceans, but it is also heavier than other Yes albums.Yes might have been the greatest example of a classic rock band trying to survives the new wave.Roger Dean designed the album cover, who was responsible for most of Yes' covers.Machine Messiah - opening reminds me of Sabotage, then goes into “Big Bottom” riff - Ascends to a very light keyboard track as Jon Anderson's voice surfaces. - 3:19 Lyrical Passage is great "Friends make their way into systems of chance (echo "friends make their way of escape into systems of chance") - Escape to freedom I need to be there - Waiting and watching the tables are turning" - The whole passage is lyrically perfect, with the echoes and call backs - - Pink Floyd sound at 5:24 mark (Tear Down the Wall”) Orchestral composition - very serene chant towards end “Machine Messiah take me into the fire” - Ends as it begins. I assumed it was John Anderson when I listened for the first time.Man in a White Car - Very brief interlude- Chimes at beginning - “Man in a White Car” are the only lyrics. It is supposed to be a call to Gary Neuman's “Cars”.Does it Really Happen - Funky rhythm at the beginning, good drumming (Jungle Boogey) - Reminds me in parts of a song called "It Can Happen" from 90125 - “Live for Pleasure, Live for fun”. - Around 5:15 it becomes a completely different instrumental, almost with a disco beat. - long fade out, which I am not a huge fan of. - Chris Squire's vocals were strong on this. Why didn't he sing more on Yes albums?Into The Lens - “I am a camera” - “Camera Camera” - Like the guitar at about the 4:00 mark. - Too much keyboard for me. - "Memories How they Fade so fast" was such a wilting, strange lyrical beginning - But “I am a camera” was a pretty lame lyric. “Camera, camera”. Musically, it had strong moments, but I found it's transitions kind of disorienting. But “Monitor” by Siouxsie and the Banshees did this better.Run Through The Light - Could not help but think of The Police and Sting during the “Run Into The Light” part - Some guitar shredding during the last minute of the song, garnished by keyboard.Tempus Fugit - Literally means ‘Time Flies' - Might have inspired Tommy Shaw/Styxx - The harmonies and rapidity of the lyrics are off the hook. “The Way That You answer with ‘Yes'! - It might just be the “Yes” song, almost reminds me of a super hero for some reason, with love as the protagonist. - I love the fast crawling of the baseline. It us a great song.Yeah Uh Huh Social Stuff:Yeah Uh Huh on Linktr.eehttps://linktr.ee/yeahuhhuhpodYeah Uh Huh on TikTok  / yeahuhhuhpod  Yeah Uh Huh on Facebook  / yeahuhhuhpod  Yeah Uh Huh on Twitter  / yeahuhhuhpod  Yeah Uh Huh on Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/7pS9l71...Yeah Uh Huh on Apple Podcastshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...Yeah Uh Huh Website:https://yeah-uh-huh.wixsite.com/yeahu...Yeah Uh Huh WebsiteHome | YeahUhHuhPod (yeah-uh-huh.wixsite.com)Yeah-Uh-Huh on YoutubeYeah Uh-Huh -YouTubeYeah Uh Huh on Apple Podcastshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...

Every American city is divided by crumbling old highways. Every city is trying to figure out what to do with them. But even if the problems with these structures are obvious, the solutions are not – often they are contentious. Welcome to The Big Dig Highway Teardown Tour.

What to do with the BQE? It's a one of a kind highway in desperate need of repair, but no one can agree how to fix it. Guests: Polly Trottenberg, Lara Birnback, Stephen NessenRecorded live at WNYC's GreenspaceArchival audio courtesy of Municipal Archives, City of New York.

This year we went out on grass almost six weeks earlier than we ever have, and right after we did, it started freezing hard again. Today I want to talk about what that actually looks like operationally, specifically what happens to electric netting stakes in a hard-freeze climate, why that matters, and what we changed to make it work. I'll also tell you what the does look like on pre-kidding green forage, which is something we've not had access to in the past with electric netting.

Fridays are our favorite days of the week around here — what's yours? Well, if you listen to Dirty Thirty, you might be right there with us. In just 30 minutes, we take you through a journey of topics that have the Dirty Mo Media world buzzing. Our first stop comes in at Dale Jr. Download station, where Dale dives into the happening over at Richard Childress Racing and the news that Jim Pohlman is OUT as Kyle Busch's crew chief (although he technically got promoted...)  Next up, we travel to the moon and back — sort of. Noah Gragson and Chase Briscoe joined Door Bumper Clear and had a riot of a time. But the train really went off the rails when they got into this weekend's waxing crescent moon and how it *allegedly* affects the grip of the racetrack. We end up with Noah calling Josh Berry, Riley Herbst, & Austin Dillon to confirm the conspiracy. Dale interrupts the show to tell you about FAN DAY on May 21st at JR Motorsports!  Back to the action of the show, Denny Hamlin chimes in on the debate stirred up by Stephen A. Smith, which entailed whether or not NASCAR drivers are considered athletes. All the way back at the very beginning of the week, The Teardown hosted NASCAR's newest CEO, Steve O'Donnell, to talk about the future of the sport and what he plans to do with feedback. Our closer is a popular man this week — Carson Hocevar stopped into the Arby's studio to discuss his first-ever Cup Series win, his all-time celebration, and the motion that comes with watching it back.

Raising your first round of capital can feel intimidating, especially when you're not sure if you're ready, who to pitch, or what investors actually want to see. In this final episode of the pitch deck teardown series, Jayla sits down with founder Shane Pope to unpack what he learned after pitching both a VC and an angel investor. Shane shares how those conversations changed his perspective on fundraising, why traction matters so much, and why asking for money is less effective than clearly funding the next milestone. They also discuss the difference between VC and angel conversations, why investor relationships should start before you're actively raising, and how staying scrappy can make you a stronger founder. For first-time founders, this episode is a practical reminder: fundraising is not the goal. Building a business worth funding is.

What does it look like to actually live like you belong to God? In Deuteronomy 7, Moses calls Israel to enter the Promised Land and destroy everything that would pull their hearts away from God. Pastor Joel Hastings digs into one of the Bible's harder passages — and unpacks why it's actually some of the best news you'll hear. Joel walks through the call to radical holiness, the danger of modern-day idols, and the stunning reason God chose Israel in the first place: not because they were strong, impressive, or deserving — but simply because he loved them. That same unconditional love is the foundation for everything God asks of us. Here's a couple key takeaways God's love for you is not based on your performance — you can't earn it, and you can't lose it. His love is rooted entirely in who he is. Anything that competes with God in your heart is an idol — and if you don't tear it down, it will tear down your life. Because you are God's treasured possession, you are called to be different — to live set apart in a way that reflects whose you are.

Not every idol is made of stone.Some are built quietly—in our hearts.In this message, “The Things You Can't Put Down: It's Time To Tear Down Every Idol,” we confront a hard truth: anything that takes God's place in our lives has become an idol. What we chase, protect, and prioritize can slowly replace the One we're meant to worship.This sermon walks through Scripture to help us recognize the idols we may not even realize we've built—and calls us back to full surrender.In this message, you'll hear about:What an idol really is in today's lifeHow to recognize if something has taken God's place in your heartThe warning signs of idolatry—what you chase, take, sacrifice for, and boast aboutWhy idols always promise life but lead to destructionThe biblical path to tearing down idols for goodYou'll also learn how to respond:By confessing what's taken God's placeRepenting and turning your heart back to HimRenouncing what no longer belongsReplacing idols with true worshipBecause God isn't interested in partial devotion—He's after your whole heart.If there's something in your life you can't seem to put down…this message will challenge you to ask:Has it taken God's place?
