We have paste the YouTube video description below, which you will find by searching vision cast on YouTube powered by story craze network.Get ready to dive headfirst into another hilariously chaotic episode of Vision Cast After Dark – where family-friendly goes to die and the real fun begins! Angela J (aka Cloud 11) is back, attempting to steer this runaway train, flanked by her ever-supportive co-host Phillip, while George, the resident "pain in the butt," provides commentary (and groans) from the virtual sidelines.This week, George makes a miraculous recovery from a pre-show seizure, proving his "resilient doodle" status yet again, much to the feigned chagrin of Angela who was almost free to have Phillip as her undisputed right-hand man for life. Alas, George couldn't bear the thought and showed up anyway, ready for the usual dose of affectionate torment.We're thrilled to welcome our special guest for the next few weeks, the multi-talented Abby Taylor! You might know her from the ACB community karaoke scene. In honor of Jazz Appreciation Month, Abby shares a deeply moving and beautifully performed original poem, "Dad, Fats, and Me," recalling precious memories listening to Fats Waller's "Your Feet's Too Big" with her father. Get ready for goosebumps (and maybe grab a tissue!). Plus, tune in next week when we get to formally interview Abby!Hold onto your keyboards, tech fans! Donald unveils a mind-blowing surprise: a custom note-taking program created with Chat GPT! This slick browser app saves your notes automatically, can use Chat GPT to polish your text, and even integrates with 11 Labs to convert your notes into audio using your API key. The code itself? So complex it apparently makes Angela choke just looking at it! The best part? Donald generously offers a FREE copy to the entire Vision Cast crew (and Angela promises a bonus review episode soon!).The AI magic doesn't stop there! Angela and Phillip share their own creation, the unapologetically proud anthem "Unapologetically Bisexual With You," conjured into existence by the AI text-to-song generator, Udio. Angela also treats us (and possibly tortures George) with her hilarious Udio-generated parody of "Elvira," aptly titled... "Angela." We delve into the rapidly evolving world of AI music, and Angela gives Udio two thumbs up (especially over that other platform, Suno).Big news on the home front: Angela has officially escaped the basement! She's broadcasting live from her brand-new, upstairs studio. Say goodbye to questionable acoustics and (mostly) hello to fewer dog-related interruptions... though her adorable Belgian Malinois, Lulu, still manages a brief, heart-stealing cameo.Of course, it wouldn't be Vision Cast After Dark without the relentless roasting of George. Prepare for laughs as the crew discusses everything from his alleged "Micro Penis" to his new title, "Dime Dick Doodles." It's all in good fun... mostly.From heartfelt poetry and cutting-edge AI demonstrations to studio upgrades and side-splitting banter (mostly at George's expense), this episode is a rollercoaster of tech, talent, and pure Vision Cast chaos. Buckle up and enjoy the ride!

My truth... Speaking my truth... Your truth... I have read a number of articles to try and learn what is meant by My truth. There are a number of suggestions such as: The way I see things may be different than the way you see things. Be true to yourself. A pretentious substitute for a non-negotiable personal opinion. The way I see and understand something may be different than the way you see and perceive it. I know some stuff, and its likely that may change over time. In a recent trailer for a show on Hulu titled, Faces of Music, one of the cast members stated what I think is the current understanding of Your truth with the following words: It is not about right or wrong, its about your truth. Maybe there is no real definition of what Your truth really means and maybe that is the point. The reality is that we live in a day and age when truth is determined by ones experiences and feelings which is nothing new, just a different dress. So, is there such a thing as your truth? The good news is that the Bible does address the question of truth. The Unknown but Knowable God Permit me to begin with a story. About 600 hundred years before Paul ever set foot in Athans, there was a plague that came upon Athens that none of their gods could answer or fix. The leaders of that city learned of a man who was a prophet of what they called the unknown God. They summoned a representative of this unknown god from Crete, and he instructed them what was needed for the plague to be lifted. This representative requested two flock of sheep be brought one white flock and one black flock. He prayed to this unknown God and asked that all the sheep that he caused to lay down to graze, would be sacrificed to this god on a new stone alter. Well, there were sheep that did lay down to graze, so they were sacrificed on alters to the unknown God and the plague was lifted as a result. This unknown god was worshiped and then forgotten over time until two of Athens elders found one of the altars and refurbished it. One of the things they had done to this altar was that they etched into it an inscription that read: TO THE UNKOWN GOD. This was the altar the Apostle discovered while walking through Athens. This was the only God the Athens had no idols for whom they did not create or know. This is the God who, according to the Bible, has planted eternity in the human heart (Eccl. 3:11b; NLT). What the altar to THE UNKOWN GOD teaches us is that we grope around for something to make sense of our world and to discover something more than what is visibly before us. The reality is that each of us is born spiritually blind just as the Bible states: ...the god of this world [Satan] has blinded the minds of the unbelieving so that they will not see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God (2 Cor. 4:4). It is not all that different with our societys pursuit of truth. This whole business about speaking your truth or standing in your truth reminds me of the six blind people who heard about a strange animal, called an elephant, that had been brought into their village. Because none of them were aware of an elephants shape or form they thought they would inspect the creature by touching it. One of the blind men grabbed the elephants trunk and said, This elephant is like a big snake. Another blind man felt the elephants ear, and said the elephant seemed like the shape of a fan. Another who felt the elephants leg, said, this creature is a pillar like the trunk of a tree. The blind man who placed his hand upon the side of the elephant said it is like a wall that breathes. The blind man who felt its tail, described the elephant as being like a rope. The blind man who felt its tusk, stated that the elephant is like a spear. People trying to figure out what truth is or what their purpose is in life are like those blind men. There may have been some truth to what they felt but could not understand what they were touching unless they understood that what was before them was much greater than individual experiences. We live in a world full of blind men groping in the darkness trying to make sense of it without considering the Creator who made it all. God is Too Big to Be Manipulated (vv. 22-25) There was a god to be worshiped for just about every occasion in Athens. We are told that Pauls spirit, ...was being provoked within him as he observed that the city was full of idols (v. 16). It is important to point out that his spirit was provoked, but it was not because he thought those who worshiped those idols knew better. The provocation that he felt was not unlike the kind of provocation you might feel if a family was asleep in a house on fire, the provocation you would feel in your spirit would be the recognition that you had a moral obligation to do all that you could to wake the family up and get them out of the house before it was too late. What we can learn from Paul in the way he addressed the Athens is that he used their culture as a bridge to introduce them to the God they did not know who was too big to be manipulated like the gods they created. By bringing the gospel to Athens, Paul shared how there was only one true God who was knowable only because He has made Himself known. He alone made the world and everything that is in it and He, does not dwell in temples made by human hands(vv. 24-25). The God who made everything is not served by human hands like the hundreds of idols that filled Athans. What Paul meant is that the God they thought was unknowable did not need to be cleaned up, polished, or fixed, because as Creator... He cannot be manipulated. As Creator and since He made everything, God is in need of nothing. Not only does the One true God need nothing, but He also cannot be treated as an idol because unlike the idols people create, He alone, gives to all people life and breath and all things. What this means is that God does not adjust or yield to what we think truth is. Because He is the Creator, by default... we are the creature; manipulating God is as impossible as it is for a statue to manipulate the artist who made it. Apart from God, we are blind and what spiritually blind people are able to see are the shadows of spiritual truth. People genuinely know that both good and evil exist. The Greek Mythology of the Athenians proves this as do the stories we read and watch. I believe that all humans, although spiritually blind, are able to see and sense the reality of the existence of God and his truth. The Athenians groped in the darkness in pursuit of truth while their only hope was the gospel of Jesus Christ that allows us to know the truth of who God is and how to live in the world He created. Our Purpose Is Too Significant to Be Ignored (vv. 26-29) When God created mankind, He created us with a deficiency that could only be met by Him. Why else would the Apostle write that God created men and women, if perhaps they might feel around for Him and find Him, though He is not far from each of us (v. 27). God has created in us a deep longing for Him because He has made us in His image. In verse 28, Paul said to the Athens: for in Him we live and move and exist... Think about that statement for a moment. Our living and moving and very existence is found and experienced in God. In other words, our purpose in life is found in Him. Every study out there that has been done about the importance of finding your purpose in life reveals how important having purpose is. We humans are like the farmer who was seen by his neighbor shooting at his barn. As the neighbor got closer to the farmers barn, he noticed the many targets panted onto the side of his barn, and at the center of every single target was a bullet hole put there by the farmers gun. The neighbor commented to the farmer: Wow! You are an amazing marksman, your ability to hit the bullseye from that distance is impressive! What is your secret, and can you teach me? To which the farmer replied: It is really not that hard, for I first shoot my hole and then I draw the target around it. To live life like the Athens or to make up truth as you go without any consideration of who God really is, is to shoot for what we think is important and then draw the meaning of life around it. We shoot for security and then draw the meaning of life around it. We shoot for relationships and then draw the meaning of life around it. We shoot for what we think truth should be and then draw the meaning of life around it. When we do that, we are like the blind person groping around in the darkness only to left with a creation out of our own imagination! Because the people Paul was speaking to probably had little understanding of the Hebrew Bible, he used the pagan poets of the day to illustrate the truth of God. So Paul told these guys: see, even those whom you respect have said: for in Him we live and move and exist... Which was a statement probably taken from the same guy who 600 years ago introduced the Athenians to the unknown God. The point is that we are not the creator, we are the created. We live and move and have our being in Him because He is the One who fashioned us, not out of necessity, but out of love. The most loving thing God could have ever done for you and me is that He created us that we might find our joy in the One in Whom we live, and move and exist... (v. 28). Paul then quoted one of their poets to show that although such poets groped in the darkness, God was not far from them: for in Him we live and move and exist, as even some of your own poets have said, For we also are His descendants. Paul did not stop there: Therefore, since we are the descendants of God, we ought not to think that the Divine Nature is like gold or silver or stone, and image formed by human skill and thought (v. 29). In other words, God is not what we make of Him, but instead our purpose, joy, and satisfaction ultimately can only be found in and through Him. Conclusion God, the Creator, the Ancient of Day, the One who has and is declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times things which have not been done (Isa. 46:9-10) has invited you and I to know Him and to enjoy Him on a level far above the rest of creation, and He did it through His Son, Jesus Christ! Jesus Christ, the all-sufficient payment who was sacrificed for our sins to reconcile us to God the Father. What Paul said in conclusion to those gathered on Mars Hill is the equivalent of a mic drop: So having overlooked the times of ignorance, God is now proclaiming to mankind that all people everywhere are to repent, because He has set a day on which He will judge the world in righteousness through a Man whom He has appointed, having furnished proof to all people by raising Him from the dead (Acts 17:3031). God did not nor is He currently overlooking sin in the same way a negligent parent overlooks the bad behavior of their child. No! God has and is currently overlooking the sins of people since that salvation is still available to sinners, that the offer of redemption and reconciliation through Jesus Christ is still offered to sinners everywhere. To suggest truth is what you make it is ignorant, to grope for this religion and that religion is to grope in ignorance. Here is what Jesus said about groping in the dark: For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish, but have eternal life. For God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world, but so that the world might be saved through Him.... And this is the judgment, that the Light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the Light; for their deeds were evil. For everyone who does evil hates the Light, and does not come to the Light, so that his deeds will not be exposed. (John 3:16-17, 19-20) Today is the day to quit groping in the dark and to take hold of the same Jesus who has declared: I am the Light of the world; the one who follows Me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the Light of life (John 8:12). He is Him who said: I am the first and the last, and the living One; and I was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore, and I have the keys of death and of Hades (Rev. 1:17b-18). When the people heard this, some believed, but most were dismissive. Think about the message of the cross for a moment. For those of us who consider the gospel to be the power of God because we have experienced it as such, ours is a hope that sounds like it was torn right from the pages of mythology. God got a young virgin girl pregnant by His Holy Spirit so that the child of her womb would be both a god and a man to defeat the forces of evil, fix all the ills of our world, then rule as a King on earth and the way that he would do this is to first allow His god/man child to die the most painful and humiliating death possible. No wonder the word of the cross sounds so foolish to most people. Yet it is through the message of the cross concerning the historic facts that Jesus both died for our sins and rose for the forgiveness of sin, as outrageous as it may sound, that God is rescuing sin-cursed humans from His just wrath. Paul had shared the greatest news in the universe with the Athenians, and some, like those in our day, dismissed it as foolish. Truth is truth! Whatever you think your truth is, if it is not shaped and informed by the God for Whom, we live and move and exist... (v. 28a) is to grope in the darkness of our sin and ignorance. When it comes to those who do not know Jesus, they are still groping in the darkness of their sin and ignorance. You cannot expect people who do not know Jesus to do anything but grope in the darkness, but you can point them to the light of who Jesus is! For the Scripture says, Whoever believes in Him will not be Put to shame. For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, abounding in riches for all who call on Him; for Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. How then are they to call on Him in whom they have not believed? How are they to believe in Him whom they have not heard? And how are they to hear without a preacher? But how are they to preach unless they are sent? Just as it is written: How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news of good things! However, they did not all heed the good news; for Isaiah says, Lord, who has believed our report? So faith comes from hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ. You, dear Christian, are that preacher God has sent into your home, your neighborhood, into the circle of your friendships, your work, and into your world! The apostle Paul had beautiful feet. How beautiful are your feet? God has called you to bring the light of Jesus into the darkness of your world. That, my dear friend, is your truth.
My truth... Speaking my truth... Your truth... I have read a number of articles to try and learn what is meant by My truth. There are a number of suggestions such as: The way I see things may be different than the way you see things. Be true to yourself. A pretentious substitute for a non-negotiable personal opinion.

But how are they to preach unless they are sent? Just as it is written: How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news of good things! However, they did not all heed the good news; for Isaiah says, Lord, who has believed our report? So faith comes from hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ. You, dear Christian, are that preacher God has sent into your home, your neighborhood, into the circle of your friendships, your work, and into your world! The apostle Paul had beautiful feet. How beautiful are your feet? God has called you to bring the light of Jesus into the darkness of your world. That, my dear friend, is your truth.
Ready to challenge your perspectives on government efficiency and economic resilience? Join us for a compelling conversation with Kerry Killinger, co-author of "Nothing is Too Big to Fail," as we question the true impact of federal workforce reductions on national unemployment and explore the potential fallout from dismantling entire departments like the Department of Education. With Washington, D.C. possibly facing significant consequences, we navigate the complex dynamics of federal employment and the conceivable shift of educational functions to state and local jurisdictions.Our discussion doesn't stop there. We tackle the bureaucratic inertia plaguing the United States Postal Service and ponder how public sector delivery could learn from the private sector's efficiency models. As we explore the potential of remote work and its implications on federal agency performance, we draw intriguing parallels with industry leaders like SpaceX and Amazon. The conversation delves into the military's use of technology, reimagining education with vouchers and charter schools, and the importance of measurable outcomes in government spending.In a broader economic context, we offer insightful analysis of current GDP growth, inflation, and the looming threat of economic bubbles. Examine the ripple effects of COVID-era federal spending, low savings rates, and rising credit card debt while considering the consequences of wealth transfer from baby boomers. We also highlight the transformative power of AI and quantum computing in driving productivity, advocating for policy decisions that foster innovation and economic growth. With a focus on staying competitive in a rapidly evolving landscape, we underscore the timeless value of marketable skills and financial prudence.Support the showEngage the conversation on Substack at The Common Bridge!

President Donald Trump and Elon Musk's DOGE are exposing the Biden Administration's corrupt funneling of USAID money to media outlets (e.g., Politico, the New York Times, the AP, Reuters). Trump posted on Truth Social: “THIS COULD BE THE BIGGEST SCANDAL OF THEM ALL, PERHAPS THE BIGGEST IN HISTORY! THE DEMOCRATS CAN'T HIDE FROM THIS ONE. TOO BIG, TOO DIRTY!” The Sekulow team discusses the USAID scandal, cutting wasteful government spending, the ACLJ's legal work – and much more.

If you've noticed an increase in the use of the word “toxic” in relation to human behavior in recent years, you'd be right. Its use has become so prevalent, that Oxford Dictionaries named "toxic" as their Word of the Year in 2018. Oxford noted a 45% increase in lookups for the word on their website and observed its expanded usage beyond its literal meaning to describe various social and political issues.Of course, it's tempting to look for causes and attempt to fix them at the source. The rise in the use of social media, for example, has undoubtedly contributed to this increase, so we might be tempted to control toxicity there.Thom proposes a radically different cause in this episode, backing it up with a solution that puts us in control of potentially toxic behavior around us, rather than being at the mercy of it.Episode Highlights[00:45] Toxophilus - Poisoned Arrows[02:56] Source of All, Course of All, Goal of All[05:14] Too Big to Be Made Toxic[07:58] The Capacity to Be Toxified[09:21] Robust and Resilient[12:25] Overloads of Experience[14:19] Premature Cognitive Commitments[16:06] Unprecedented Rest Through Vedic Meditation[18:56] A Net Position of Structural Integrity[20:10] Attain to Personal InvincibilityUseful Linksinfo@thomknoles.com https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoleshttps://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/

Access to the outdoors is a basic human need—from the granite under our feet during adventures or simply a breath of fresh air. Yet, that access isn't equal. In the U.S., more than one in three people lack access to a park within a 10-minute walk of home, disproportionately affecting Black and Brown communities. The outdoor and climbing industries face similar challenges. Lack of diversity in leadership, limited funding, and gate-kept information make the climb steeper for many. However, climbers of color have risen to become some of the sport's most accomplished athletes, demonstrating the potential that comes with overcoming barriers. By expanding diversity in leadership, increasing funding, and fostering open access to knowledge, we can create a more inclusive and level playing field for all climbers. Join Trust for Public Land for an inspiring conversation with prominent Asian American climbers Cody Kaemmerlen, Kathy Karlo, and Nina Williams. Moderated by Trust for Public Land's Northwest Director, Mitsu Iwasaki, panelists will delve into their personal journeys, discuss obstacles to equitable access to the sport, and explore the benefits of creating a more inclusive environment for everyone. Cody Kaemmerlen is a passionate rock climber and advocate for inclusivity in the climbing community as well as the outdoors. He is the Director of Advancement Operations for NOLS and serves on the Board of Directors for the American Alpine Club. Based in Wyoming, Cody leads efforts to create welcoming and equitable spaces in the outdoors by addressing barriers to diversity and inclusion. With personal experiences as a South Korean adoptee raised in rural Oregon, he brings a unique perspective to his work. Cody's commitment to equity is also highlighted in the film “Dear Mother,” where he delves into his identity and the challenges faced by people of color in the climbing world. Kathy Karlo is a storyteller at heart who has dedicated herself to reshaping the narrative around climbing and the outdoors. As the creator and host of the For the Love of Climbing podcast, she dives into the emotional and vulnerable sides of the sport, while also amplifying the voices of those often left out of the conversation. Kathy also leads as Executive Director of No Man's Land Film Festival, an all-women adventure film festival that challenges traditional narratives by showcasing female-driven stories. Through her work, Kathy strives to create a more inclusive outdoor space where everyone can feel empowered to share their authentic experiences. Nina Williams is a professional rock climber recognized for her groundbreaking achievements in highball bouldering and trad climbing. Based in Boulder, Colorado, Nina has pushed the limits of what is possible, becoming the first woman to climb iconic routes like “Too Big to Flail” and “Ambrosia” in Bishop, California. Her climbing career is marked by a deep mental discipline, and she is passionate about access and mentorship in the climbing world. Beyond her personal accomplishments, Nina is committed to fostering inclusivity in outdoor spaces, working with organizations like Flash Foxy, Color the Crag, and the Women's Climbing Symposium to ensure everyone can connect with nature. As Board President of the American Alpine Club and a Certified Professional Coach, Nina's work reflects her belief in the power of the outdoors to inspire and uplift all communities. Mitsu Iwasaki, our moderator for the evening, is the Associate Vice President and Northwest Director of Trust for Public Land. Born in Japan, Iwasaki's family immigrated to Seattle, WA soon after he turned six years old. Growing up in the relative comfort of the suburbs, his parents felt it would be best to ‘build his character' by sending him to work on a commercial fishing boat throughout his teenage summers in Chignik, Alaska. Those experiences sparked an enduring love for wild places, inspiring a life-long journey of adventure and exploration of both natural landscapes and his capacity as a person. He has been climbing, skiing, and running across our beloved northwest mountains and around the world for over three decades. Presented by Town Hall Seattle and Trust for Public Land.

Gene was Right Again! Looking back at an interview Gene did on October 23. After Trump's former Chief of Staff, John Kelly, expressed disdain for Trump's management style from 4 years ago, it was clear the "11th-hour Democrats" are rolling out everything they can find to attack trump. IT'S NOT WORKING. Other national figures; Elon Musk now on board, Tulsi Gabbard now registering Republican, and others reflect a totally different 'take' for a 2024 election. After multiple assassination attempts, the corrupting of the media, the deep state funding of complicit/corrupt Democrats, cannot take Trump out this second time around. Too Big to Rig is the right phrase. With Trump back in we can repair and remedy the ills of the past.“Too Big To Rig”Gene Valentino on Newsmax NewslineORIGINAL MEDIA SOURCE(S):Originally Recorded on October 23, 2024America Beyond the Noise: Season 5, Episode 551Image courtesy of: NEWSMAX➡️ Join the Conversation: https://GeneValentino.com➡️ WMXI Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/NewsRadio981➡️ More WMXI Interviews: https://genevalentino.com/wmxi-interviews/➡️ More GrassRoots TruthCast Episodes: https://genevalentino.com/grassroots-truthcast-with-gene-valentino/➡️ More Broadcasts with Gene as the Guest: https://genevalentino.com/america-beyond-the-noise/ ➡️ More About Gene Valentino: https://genevalentino.com/about-gene-valentino/

Michael is the director of the documentary series The Viral Delusion, which critically examines the narratives surrounding viruses and challenges conventional virology. Episode Highlights: Re-examining the Foundation: Michael discusses the importance of questioning the foundational assumptions of virology rather than just critiquing the built-up narratives around viruses like HIV and COVID-19. Journey to Terrain Theory: He shares the path that led him to explore terrain theory, a concept that shifts the focus from viruses as the cause of illness to the overall environment and health of the body. Creating The Viral Delusion: Learn about Michael's process in assembling the documentary series, including the influences from the AIDS dissidence movement and his thoughts on the COVID-19 response and historical vaccine narratives. HIV/AIDS Narrative: Michael dives into the controversial claim that HIV does not cause AIDS, presenting arguments and insights from leading thinkers who have challenged the mainstream story. The Reality of AZT: The conversation explores the history of AZT, a drug once marketed as the primary treatment for HIV/AIDS, and how it was pushed despite its toxic effects. Michael highlights the existence of alternative treatments that were overshadowed by AZT. Unreleased Insights: Michael shares additional findings and insights that didn't make it into his documentary, providing a more complete picture of the perspectives on HIV/AIDS. The Expanding Symptom Lists: Discussion around how the symptoms associated with various so-called viruses continue to grow, raising questions about the criteria used for diagnosis and classifications in virology. About Michael Wallach: Michael Wallach is the director of the acclaimed five-part documentary series, The Viral Delusion, which can be watched at theviraldelusion.com. Described as “groundbreaking” and “immensely important” by leading medical voices like Tom Cowan, Dr. John Bevan-Smith, and Dr. Sam Bailey, the series challenges long-standing assumptions about viruses.

Evan Handler is beloved by millions for portraying Harry Goldenblatt, divorce-lawyer-turned-husband to Kristin Davis's Charlotte York, on HBO's groundbreaking series, and films, “Sex and the City,” it's current MAX follow-up, “And Just Like That,” as well as Charlie Runkle on Showtime's seven season “Californication.” In addition to authoring two highly acclaimed books, Time on Fire: My Comedy of Terrors, and It's Only Temporary: The Good News and the Bad News of Being Alive, Evan has played leading roles in ABC's “It's Like, You Know…,” and NBC's “Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip,” STARZ' “Power,” and made numerous memorable guest appearances on “Lost,” “The West Wing,” “Six Feet Under,” “Necessary Roughness,” and “Friends.” In 2000, Evan played Larry Fine in ABC's TV movie “The Three Stooges,” followed by additional “real life” portrayals of Lloyd Blankfein in HBO's “Too Big to Fail,” Alan Dershowitz in FX's “People vs. OJ Simpson,” and Hal Prince in FX's “Fosse/Verdon,” each of which garnered numerous wide-ranging awards. On the big screen, Evan played a leading role in Ron Howard's “Ransom,” starring Mel Gibson, and featured and leading roles Oliver Stone's “Natural Born Killers,” “Taps,” “The Chosen,” and “Sweet Lorraine.” He's currently visible in David Duchovny's directorial effort, “Reverse the Curse.” Prior to his work in film and television, Evan earned acclaim in seven Broadway productions, all performed between his twenty-first and thirtieth birthdays, and all in spite of losing nearly five years of that span to his fight against a supposedly “incurable” leukemia. During this time Evan starred in Broadway productions of “Six Degrees of Separation,” “I Hate Hamlet,” “Brighton Beach Memoirs,” “Broadway Bound” and “Master Harold...and the boys.” Evan also worked extensively in off-Broadway and regional theater at NY's Public Theater, Manhattan Theater Club, Playwrights Horizons, Seattle Rep, and Steppenwolf, performing early plays by Donald Margulies, Robert Schenkkan, Jez Butterworth, and numerous others. Evan's first book, Time On Fire, details his unlikely recovery from the leukemia diagnosed in the mid-1980s. His second book, It's Only Temporary: The Good News and the Bad News of Being Alive, describes the twenty-year period post-illness, and Handler's surprisingly circuitous journey toward gratitude, using tales of serial dating, absurd relationships, unexpected depressions, and, ultimately, lasting love and a miracle conception.

R'Ork magically showed back up but oddly that isn't the most pressing concern right now. Honestly, we felt a little bad about ignoring her apparition but a literal murderous hydra was trying to pull our Too Big of a Boat into an underwater cave. Underwater caves are about the most dangerous place anywhere so things are not going great all and all. This town better be thankful...The adventure continues with Screech Echo (Mike Bachmann), Selene Von Esper (Jennifer Cheek), R'Oarc (Nika Howard), T'Chuck (Tim Lanning), and our Dungeon Master Michael DiMauro.

Today's episode is with my new friend, Maurice F. Martin, transformational coach, teacher, and author of "Your But is Too Big." Maurice shares his incredible journey from addiction and despair to finding true freedom and purpose. His story is one of overcoming inner critics, redefining self-worth, and discovering the tangible presence of God in his darkest moments. Listen in as Maurice provides profound insights on faith, resilience, and the beauty of life beyond hardship. Bio: Facing a crossroads, Maurice F. Martin chose to path less traveled, the life-changing journey of healing, growth, and purpose. Maurice is a 2x bestselling author and the former co-host of the TV show, Getting the Word Out. His second book, Your But Is Too Big, was written to help you heal your past wounds, discover who you are, and live a peaceful, purpose-driven life. Maurice has been through his fair share of trauma-from masking the private pain of his childhood to battling depression in his 20s. After becoming an award-winning vocalist and songwriter, Maurice hit rock bottom and it became clear that there was only one way out: he had to let go of what had been holding him back. Now that he's healed, Maurice is on a mission to equip and empower you to release your limiting beliefs and become the person you were born to be. Maurice lives in Akron, Ohio with his wife and their two children.

Erik explains what we should have done differently in Afghanistan, outlining a plan that would have saved trillions of dollars and thousands of American lives while actually eliminating the Taliban. He also discusses his proposal to avert the Russian invasion of Ukraine for less than $1 billion by sending Ukraine obsolete American aircraft - including the A-10, which was designed to take on the very same tanks Russia used in its invasion. The episode concludes with Erik's strategy for replacing the failed Neocon ideology with a common-sense approach to foreign policy: Make our enemies fear us, our friends love us, and our rivals respect us.

Erik Prince explains how the Neocon ideology and the military-industrial complex repeatedly thwarted efforts to implement an effective military strategy in Afghanistan. Instead of allowing a small number of NATO Special Forces soldiers to help the Afghan military keep the Taliban in check, the Pentagon insisted on a conventional military presence despite abundant evidence that their strategy was nothing more than an eye-wateringly expensive boondoggle.

Chapter 1:Summary of Too Big To Fail Book"Too Big to Fail: The Inside Story of How Wall Street and Washington Fought to Save the Financial System—And Themselves" is a non-fiction book by Andrew Ross Sorkin, first published in 2009. It provides an in-depth, behind-the-scenes account of the 2008 financial crisis, particularly focusing on the events that led to the collapse of major financial institutions and the subsequent government interventions.The book's title, "Too Big to Fail," refers to a business theory that certain corporations, particularly financial institutions, are so large and interconnected that their failure would be disastrous to the greater economic system. Therefore, they must be supported by the government when they face potential failure.Andrew Ross Sorkin, a financial journalist, uses his extensive access to key players in politics, finance, and academia to weave together a detailed and dramatic narrative. He takes the reader into the meeting rooms, boardrooms, and offices where decisions were made, capturing the tense atmosphere and the complex interplay of personalities and interests.Key figures in the book include U.S. Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson, Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke, and various high-level executives from Wall Street's top firms, such as Lehman Brothers, Merrill Lynch, and Goldman Sachs. The book details the struggle to save Lehman Brothers, the controversial bailout of AIG, and the consolidation and rearrangement of major financial institutions during the crisis."Too Big to Fail" also touches upon the roles of key regulatory frameworks, the flawed decisions by executives that led to risky financial practices, and the chain reaction set off by falling real estate prices and the implosion of the subprime mortgage market.Overall, the book provides a comprehensive overview of the mechanisms of the crisis, offering insights into the challenges and decisions faced by leaders, and illustrating the grave impacts on the global economy when major financial systems falter. "Too Big to Fail" is considered a definitive work on the 2008 financial crisis, appreciated for bringing clarity to a complex series of events that affected millions globally.Chapter 2:the theme of Too Big To Fail Book"Too Big to Fail: The Inside Story of How Wall Street and Washington Fought to Save the Financial System—and Themselves" by Andrew Ross Sorkin is a non-fiction book that documents the events that led up to the financial crisis in 2008. It offers a detailed account of the crisis from the perspectives of the Wall Street and Washington players involved. Below, I'll outline some key plot points, character development, and thematic ideas presented in the book.### Key Plot Points1. **Lehman Brothers' Collapse**: One of the central events in the book is the downfall of Lehman Brothers, whose bankruptcy filing marked one of the largest in U.S. history and a pivotal moment in the financial crisis. The narrative explores the frantic efforts to find a buyer for Lehman and the decision not to bail it out.2. **Bailout Negotiations**: The book goes into detail about the negotiations surrounding the bailouts of other major financial institutions, including the creation and implementation of the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP). These negotiations reveal the complexities and urgent nature of the crisis.3. **Merrill Lynch's Sale**: The sale of Merrill Lynch to Bank of America under pressured conditions illustrates the desperation and rapid changes in the landscape of financial power during the crisis.4. **AIG's Rescue**: The federal government's rescue of AIG, an insurance giant on
Former Navy U.S. Seal and founder of the private military company Blackwater Erik Prince says that “We are fighting wars the wrong way.” Stephen Bryen is known as the “Yoda” of the Arms Trade. Time Magazine comments, “He knows every sinkhole in the regulatory swamp. Ignore him at your peril." He is also a former Deputy Undersecretary of Defense and founder of the Defense Technology Security Administration. This week, we are discussing Erik's new paper “Too Big to Win: How the Military and Industrial Complex and the Neocons Keep America Losing.” One of the central questions posed by Prince – How has America transitioned from a post-Cold War era of dominance to its current state of disarray? Follow us: Website: https://www.thebillwaltonshow.com
Erik traces the development of the Neocon establishment in Washington, starting with the collapse of the USSR and the need for new justifications to maintain the high defense spending that sustains the military-industrial complex. From an unnecessarily militant posture toward Russia that indirectly led to the present war in Ukraine to fomenting conflict and genocide in Africa, the Neocon legacy is one of death, destruction, and enormous profits. Erik points out that private security firms have a track record of low-cost, highly-effective peacekeeping missions, yet are consistently blocked by Neocon administrations in Washington that prefer ineffective, high-cost military operations. The money wasted on arming and equipping these interventions has fueled the explosion of the U.S. national debt while lining the pockets of politicians, defense contractors, and political activist groups.

Adam, Joanna, and Zach respond to a recent San Francisco Chronicle piece about the purportedly dire situation facing California winemakers, and propose that the current struggles are more an aftereffect of the pandemic than a cataclysmic shift in how Americans feel about wine, but also that small winemakers absolutely need to be more honest about their business plans and how they can prepare for difficult times.

How do we take up our right size in the world? Not in some fixed, rigid way but as a responsive way of engaging with what is called for in each situation and context? When we see that in some way ‘too big' and ‘too small' are both ways we try to control situations, maybe we can open to the emergence of something more fluid, more adaptive, and more sensitive in us. Something that asks of us to be of service to life, and responds accordingly. Hosted, as always, by Lizzie Winn and Justin Wise of Thirdspace.

Here's our source for this week: Right-Sized A response to Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer's Big What if this the year to learn to be right-sized? I learned on the playground to Flinch from arrogance. ‘Please – don't leave me. I promise not to get Too Big.' But the cost, I've learned, is dear. Trading potential for false modesty, Dampening power with every apology, Neglecting my impeccable edges With every hedge. But then I remember What the rabbis knew. They stretched wide a red silk thread. At one end: Arrogance. At the other: Not humility – but Playing Too Small. They knew playing small was just arrogance by a different name. Placing comfort above contribution. Our gifts withdrawn from the world, For the price of fitting in. ‘What if holding back is stealing?' So in the middle, they placed a pair of right-sized shoes. Yours. Mine. The right-sizing that awaits us all. What, I wonder, will it take for you to grow into your right size The one that seems Impossibly large, and Obnoxiously loud? Clownish as these shoes seem now, prone to stumbling, At first you'll feel the fool. Some People will have Things To Say. Some may even walk away. (In this modesty-mad world, they're yet to clock that claiming your shoes does nothing to keep them from theirs.) But every now and then you wake up to the truth. That it's the world that's wrong - not you. These too-small shoes will no longer do. So take your credit where it's due. And when no-one offers it – give yourself a spoon daily. Take your space Trading in the apologies for gratitude. Minimise your emotions no more – They too deserve to expand to the full. Fill your circle with champions And learn to see yourself with the wonder of their eyes. And when you hit your stride, and weather whatever, Give up the surprise. When those shoes once vast grow snug, Be sure to celebrate well. Acknowledge yourself, and your people, and the view. Until another pair of shoes calls to you Between arrogance and avoidance On that red silk string… You Are Needed. And this is no time, no world, For stealing.

On January 24, the Senate Judiciary Committee held a hearing on Ticketmaster. The hearing followed in the aftermath Taylor Swift's "Eras Tour" tickets going on sale last November, a debacle during which Ticketmaster broke down during the presale, leaving millions of fans without tickets. Senators convened to hear testimony from a top Live Nation executive (Ticketmaster's parent company), competitors in ticketing and concert promotion, antitrust experts, and a musician. The hearing represented a step toward a potential antitrust case against Live Nation and Ticketmaster, which merged in 2010. Moe Tkacik and Krista Brown are researchers at the American Economic Liberties Project, a left-leaning think tank which is part of a consortium that is pushing for the DOJ to break up the Live Nation monopoly. In February Micah Loewinger spoke to them about an article they co-wrote for The American Prospect about Ticketmaster's forty-plus-year-history, and how the company came to dominate, and in some ways reshape, the live music landscape. This is a segment from our February 3, 2023 show, Too Big to Fail?.
