Today, they're one of the largest Christian populations in Indonesia, with over 6 million believers. The transformation happened because someone, a German missionary named Ludwig Nommensen, decided their spiritual poverty was unacceptable. That was 190 years ago. Today, 4,473 people groups are still waiting for their Ludwig Nommensen moment. The People Group Adoption Program launches today, and here's how it works: It meets you where you are. You're not being asked to become a missionary in the field (though if God calls you to that, we'll cheer you on). You're being invited to use your current gifts, prayer, advocacy, networking, research to support those who are already called to go.

Each community has super special and different ways of living life. Every family and cultural group has special celebrations, vibrant dishes, and unique beliefs that make them their own. Let's honor the traditions we practice in our own communities and share them with others. We should celebrate these traditions because not only are they important parts of our lives, but we can also use the opportunity to teach those who are curious about our special customs!

Beau Martonik hits the Appalachian Mountains with Nathan Killen and Jason Redd of Timber Ninja Outdoors to talk about scouting and hunting tactics during the second half of the rut—when deer activity begins to taper off but opportunities still exist for giants for those who adapt. Nathan breaks down how buck behavior shifts as the peak fades, with food sources and remaining hot does driving movement. The crew discusses how to recognize fresh sign, adjust stand access and setups, and use trail cameras strategically to stay in the game as the rut slows down. They also reflect on how their hunting mindsets have evolved, from chasing obvious sign to keying in on subtle patterns that consistently produce mature bucks in big woods terrain.

There is alot of speculation, prognositcatiom, miss-information, ridiculous conclusions, and outright bad data about the wine trade right now. Everyone with an opinion is chiming in. And some of these folks have done nothing more than work in a wine shop or behind the scenes at an agency. How does that quote go? "It is much easier to give advice from the veil of cover, than to use it at the point of attack" That is percisely how I feel about much of what is being said. Enter Barbara Gorder. She gives advice but has used it at the point of attack. You see, she didn't come from the wine trade to convolute and miss-comprehend the data, she came from main stream marketing; high end stuff; Leo Burnett. Barbara Gorder never cared much for the wine itself—at least, not at first. Her fascination started in a Roman-built wine cave, an art history professor and a bottle of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. But what truly pulls Barbara Gorder into wine's gravity isn't just what's in the glass; it's the changing, challenging business behind it. This episode pours listeners an insider's view not just of shifting generational tastes or the specter of "neo-prohibitionists," but the seismic explosion of wineries competing for our (increasingly distracted) attention. You'll discover how direct-to-consumer (DTC) wine marketing—once an afterthought—has grown into a multibillion-dollar necessity, and how Barbara Gorder helped drive this revolution by importing lessons from fields as disparate as luxury beauty and global snack foods. With wit and blunt honesty, she uncorks tales of exclusion—women in marketing meetings, outsiders "not related by blood or marriage"—and explains how diversity and collaboration are quietly rewriting the rules of success. Listen in as Paul Kalemkiarian grills her on why most wineries have only now started talking to their customers (and still don't know their acquisition costs), why the wine industry's language gap drives away curious drinkers, and how the future lies not in doom-and-gloom narratives, but in creative marketing and open doors. This is a rare tasting of industry confessionals, hard marketing truths, and what it really takes to stand out when your competitors have multiplied from 7,500 to over 11,000 in under five years. By the end, you'll have a seat at the table with the most eccentric thinkers in wine, understand why "my wine sells itself" is a myth, and get a glimpse at the future of how—and to whom—wine is going to be sold.     #wineindustry #DTCwine #BarbaraGorder #PaulKalemkiarian #winemarketing #winebusiness #winerycompetition #winesymposium #FreetheGrapes #directtoconsumer #wineclubs #winediversity #wineexperience #wineeducation #winesalesstrategies #winetech #digitalmarketing #womeninwine #wineconsumertrends #winepodcast  

Summary: In this episode of the Shark Farmer Podcast, host Rob Sharkey interviews Lee Lancaster, a marketing specialist at the Georgia Department of Agriculture and author. They discuss Lee's upbringing in Eastman, Georgia, his education, and his career path, including his work with Vidalia onions, Georgia's state vegetable. Lee shares insights into the history of the Vidalia onion, the importance of protecting its trademark, and the historical context of the farmer's strike in the late 1970s. The conversation also touches on agricultural traditions, public education initiatives like the Baby Barn, and the restoration of antique cotton gins. takeaways Lee Lancaster grew up in a John Deere dealership and developed a passion for agriculture early on. The Vidalia onion is unique to Georgia and is known for its sweetness due to specific soil conditions. Counterfeit Vidalia onions have been an issue, leading to protective laws to maintain the integrity of the brand. The farmer's strike in the late 1970s was a significant event in agricultural history, highlighting the struggles of farmers during that time. Traditions in agriculture are important, and Lee emphasizes the need to pass down knowledge and practices. Public education initiatives like the Baby Barn aim to connect urban populations with agricultural processes. Lee's book on the farmer's strike was inspired by personal stories and historical events shared by farmers. The restoration of antique cotton gins is a way to preserve agricultural history and educate the public. Lee believes that many people today are disconnected from agriculture and lack basic knowledge about farming. The importance of supporting local farms and understanding where food comes from is a recurring theme in the conversation.

I've noticed a theme in the Bible. God sets up different celebrations for his people. It becomes undeniable that God intends celebration to be a key part of discipleship. The great thing for us is we don't have to write celebrations from scratch, though if you have milestones in your family's faith story, absolutely celebrate those! I grew up knowing nothing about the church calendar, but have slowly started to learn a big appreciation for the guided celebrations. Traditions, smells, special colors, and décor prompt us to remember over and over Christ's beautiful work in our lives. Danielle Hitchen has talked about this most consistently over the past couple of years, and I'm excited to have her answer more of my questions specifically.-What is the church calendar? -How does the church calendar help us remember Jesus? -How do you celebrate Advent? -What are some foods you associate with the church calendar?You can find Danielle Hitchen's book "Sacred Seasons" HERE, and her shop Catichisis Books HEREYou can find Elizabeth writing helpful hints ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠on the blog⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Helping you love Jesus and disciple your kids ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠on Instagram ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Or get access to the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Additional study resources here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Original Music written and recorded by Jonathan Camenisch *affiliate links are used when appropriate.

When we lose someone we love, it's not just their absence we grieve. Friendships shift. Traditions unravel. Financial strain. Roles we once filled suddenly disappear. These are the secondary losses — the hidden griefs that surface long after the initial shock has passed.In this episode, we'll explore those quieter, often unspoken parts of loss: the relationships that fade, the routines that change, and the identities we're forced to rebuild. Together, we'll shine a light on what often goes unseen — validating both those just beginning to feel these losses and those still navigating them years later. Because acknowledging them isn't a sign of weakness — it's a step toward healing, understanding, and reclaiming the life that still waits ahead.

Hello Happy Hour! This week, we hear all about the good, the bad, and the what the hell is going on with some wild Duce weekend stories, and Ariel and Version 2 share some home improvement and a fancy anniversary dinner! Have a great weekend, everyone!

Transcript:He: עם ריח תבלינים באוויר וצבעים עזים בכל מקום, שוק מחנה יהודה בירושלים היה חי ותוסס במיוחד.En: With the scent of spices in the air and vibrant colors everywhere, the Mahane Yehuda Market in Jerusalem was especially lively and bustling.He: תמר הסתובבה בין הדוכנים עם חיוך חצי מרוגש וחצי לחוץ.En: Tamar wandered among the stalls with a smile that was half excited and half anxious.He: היא אהבה את השוק הזה מאז שהייתה ילדה, אבל היום היא חיפשה משהו מיוחד: את כל החומרים לסופגניות המפורסמות של סבתא שלה.En: She had loved this market since she was a child, but today she was looking for something special: all the ingredients for her grandmother's famous sufganiyot.He: היה סתיו וקריר, ופנסים קטנים האירו את הרחובות באור חמים.En: It was autumn and cool, and small lanterns lit the streets with a warm glow.He: תמר עברה בין הדוכנים עם רשימה בידה, פניה מלאות נחישות.En: Tamar moved between the stalls with a list in her hand, her face full of determination.He: היא רצתה להכין ארוחת שבת לחנוכה למשפחתה, ולהחזיר טעם מהעבר, כשסבתה הייתה מכינה סופגניות מהחלומות לשבתות חנוכה.En: She wanted to prepare a Sabbath dinner for Hanukkah for her family, bringing back a taste from the past, when her grandmother would make dreamlike sufganiyot for Hanukkah Sabbaths.He: אבל השוק היה הומה.En: But the market was crowded.He: אנשים בכל מקום, קונים את כל מה שיכולים לקראת החג המתקרב.En: People were everywhere, buying everything they could ahead of the approaching holiday.He: בחנות הקמח, המוכר הביט בה בצער.En: At the flour shop, the seller looked at her with regret.He: "מצטער, גברת, ניגמר לי

asked, "Why don't you go to Yona?He: אולי היא תוכל לעזור!En: Maybe she can help!"He: "תמר הרגישה פתאום פרץ של תקווה.En: Tamar suddenly felt a burst of hope.He: היא מיהרה לדירה של יונה.En: She hurried to Yona's apartment.He: כשהגיעה, יונה חייכה למראה פני החברה הצעירה.En: When she arrived, Yona smiled at the sight of the young friend.He: "תמר!En: "Tamar!He: איזו הפתעה נעימה!En: What a pleasant surprise!"He: " היא קראה ונתנה לה חיבוק חם.En: she exclaimed and gave her a warm hug.He: תמר הסבירה במהירות את המצב, יונה הנהנה בחיוך.En: Tamar quickly explained the situation, and Yona nodded with a smile.He: "אני יודעת בדיוק מה את צריכה," אמרה יונה ושלפה מהמטבח הקטן שלה שקית קמח שהסתתרה מאחור.En: "I know exactly what you need," said Yona, retrieving from her small kitchen a hidden bag of flour.He: "זה בדיוק הקמח של סבתך.En: "This is exactly your grandmother's flour."He: "תמר התמלאה בהתרגשות.En: Tamar was filled with excitement.He: היא הודתה ליונה בכל ליבה וחזרה הביתה כשהיא מרגישה מצוידת ופעלתנית.En: She thanked Yona with all her heart and returned home feeling equipped and industrious.He: בערב שבת, כל המשפחה התייצבה סביב שולחן מלא כל טוב.En: On Friday evening, the whole family

Olyat, amely megszólítja Magyarország gazdag kulturális örökségét.En: He wanted to buy a special gift for his mentor, who had instilled in him a love for architecture—a gift that would express Hungary's rich cultural heritage.Hu: Ákos, Zsófi és Bence a körülötte nyüzsgő turisták elől menekülve csatlakoztak hozzá.En: Ákos was joined by Zsófi and Bence, escaping the bustling tourists around them.Hu: "Ez itt kész őrület!" nevetett Bence, a baráti társaság vidám hangján.En: "This is madness!" laughed Bence, the jovial voice of their group.Hu: "Próbáljunk máshova menni" - javasolta Zsófi, miközben egy kis empátiát fütyült a hűvös szél.En: "Let's try going somewhere else," suggested Zsófi as the chilly wind whistled with a hint of empathy.Hu: Ákosra nézett és hozzátette: "Hallottam, hogy egy kis kézműves bolt nyílt a közelben. Ott kevésbé zsúfolt lehet."En: She looked at Ákos and added, "I heard a small artisan shop opened nearby. It might be less crowded there."Hu: Ákos elmerült a gondolataiban.En: Ákos immersed himself in his thoughts.Hu: A színes kalotaszegi szőttesek, a kalocsai hímzések és a pécsi kerámiák mind-mind emlékeztették őt a magyar örökség gazdagságára.En: The colorful Kalotaszeg weavings, the Kalocsa embroideries, and the Pécs ceramics all reminded him of the richness of Hungarian heritage.Hu: Egy kis bolt talán rejteget valami különlegeset.En: A little shop might just hide something special.Hu: Hármasban elindultak az új cél felé.En: The trio set off toward the new destination.Hu: Az utcák csendesebbé váltak, ahogy közeledtek egy kis sikátorba, ahol a kézműves bolt rejtőzött.En: The streets grew quieter as they approached a small alley where the artisan shop was hidden.Hu: Az üzletbe belépve a béke és csend fogadta őket.En: When they entered the shop, they were greeted by peace and quiet.Hu: A polcokon kézzel készített tárgyak sorakoztak, minden darab egy-egy történetet mesélve.En: Handcrafted items lined the shelves, each piece telling its own story.Hu: Ákos szeme rögtön megakadt egy gyönyörű porcelán vázán.En: Ákos's eyes immediately caught a beautiful porcelain vase.Hu: Aranyló mustrái finoman visszaadták Budapest építészeti vonásait.En: Its golden patterns subtly echoed the architectural features of Budapest.Hu: Az egyszerű, mégis elegáns dizájn lenyűgözte őt.En: The simple yet elegant design fascinated him.Hu: "Tökéletes!" kiáltott fel, megérintve a tárgyat.En: "Perfect!" he exclaimed, touching the object.Hu: Érezte, hogy ez a váza jelképezi mindazt, amit keresett.En: He felt that this vase symbolized everything he had been searching for.Hu: Vásárlás után, ahogy kilépett a boltból, melegség ömlött szét benne.En: After buying it, as he stepped out of the shop, a warmth spread through him.Hu: Megtalálta, amit keresett, és közben felfedezte, mennyire inspiráló tud lenni a helyi művészet.En: He had found what he was looking for and, in the process, discovered how inspiring local art could be.Hu: A Duna partján hagyományokat és kultúrát hordozó ajándékával a kezében Ákos közelebb érezte magát mind a mentorához, mind saját gyökereihez.En: With his gift brimming with tradition and culture in his hand, Ákos felt closer both to his mentor and his own roots by the Danube's shore.Hu: Az Országház ég felé törő tornyai alatt, a ragyogó naplementében, Ákos már nem csak a vásárlás, de a hely szellemiségével is gazdagodva indult haza.En: Beneath the soaring spires of the Országház, in the glowing sunset, Ákos set off home, enriched not just by his purchase but also by the spirit of the place.

Today, they're one of the largest Christian populations in Indonesia, with over 6 million believers. The transformation happened because someone, a German missionary named Ludwig Nommensen, decided their spiritual poverty was unacceptable. That was 190 years ago. Today, 4,473 people groups are still waiting for their Ludwig Nommensen moment. The People Group Adoption Program launches today, and here's how it works: It meets you where you are. You're not being asked to become a missionary in the field (though if God calls you to that, we'll cheer you on). You're being invited to use your current gifts, prayer, advocacy, networking, research to support those who are already called to go. It's strategic. Every people group in our database has been vetted by researchers and field workers. These aren't randomly selected communities. They're the 100 largest frontier people groups, the populations with the least gospel access and the greatest potential for kingdom impact. It grows with your capacity. Whether you're adopting as a family, church, or organization, the commitment adjusts to what you can offer. Someweekly. Others will fund translation projects. A few will end up moving to the field. All contributions matter. When you adopt a people group today, you'll receive: Immediate next steps for your specific adopted group A digital covenant card to mark your commitment Information about your frontier people group Regular updates as we develop more resources and connections Beyond the practical resources, you'll receive something harder to quantify: the knowledge that you're part of a strategic response to the most urgent spiritual need on our planet. The Batak people have been sending missionaries to unreached groups for decades now. Their story didn't end with their own transformation; it multiplied exponentially.

Welcome to the 7th season of the Knowledge of Nothing (KON) podcast! Where your hosts, Tony, Brian, Oren and Wayne (aka the KONMen) discuss the inane, somewhat entertaining, and occasionally educational topics on a weekly basis. This week's show marks the yearly tradition of O-mas at KONMan Tony's household. We also get an impromptu “Gett off my KON” mini-segment where the guys share their gripes with commercials. The main segment was provided by our one and only KON sponsor, Dayna of SoyCat, in honor of her upcoming birthday. Tony, Brian, and Oren will be tested on if they can guess the country or region where a unique birthday tradition is held. Some are way better than the U.S. and others are a bit painful to imagine. You definitely want to tune in as you might be surprised at how many the KONMen get right!Contact us at info@theknowledgeofnothing.com and follow us on our socials!https://www.facebook.com/theknowledgeofnothing/Instagram: @theknowledgeofnothingTwitter: @TheKONMen1Bluesky: @thekonmen.bsky.social

Sybil C had been sober for 39 years at the time of this speak, she is from of Los Angeles and is speaking on the subject of How the Traditions Were Born, a topic she lived while working in the AA office in New York at the time of their creation. Sybil got sober in 1941 after trying for 17 years, at her first meeting she was asked to wait out in the hall because it was a closed meeting and they thought she was one of the wives, not one of the drunks, she was also the first woman AA member on the East coast. I was a bit shocked at how well this cleaned up considering how it sounded on my first listen.

Courtney's backstory is not dissimilar to those who grew up in tumultuous families in which alcoholism was present. The seeming frivolity and celebratory aspects of drinking cloaked the actual dysfunction that was occurring in the family. By the time she was drinking on a regular basis in her teenage years, Courtney's budding alcoholism had become yet another family secret to bear. Though she was mostly a binge drinker, the negative effects of the disease were happening more frequently when, at 21 years of age, Courtney checked herself into an inpatient treatment center in Canada. Ironically, despite her emotional gloom and desperate need for help, her family tried to dissuade her from going into treatment. Fortunately, Courtney's desire to get help prevailed over the family denial of her problem. She got the help she needed in treatment and actually stopped drinking, for a while. But, like many alcoholics who believe inpatient treatment and some aftercare are an all-sufficient solution, she failed to truly engage with AA. She found herself drinking again within months. It took Courtney many more years of living in alcoholic despair and emotional turmoil for her to hit bottom. By mid-2014, with a waning desire to even stay alive, she entered AA and found hope at last. She began regular attendance of meetings and found a dedicated sponsor with whom she worked the steps. Her daily surrender to a higher power, combined with a close fellowship of women and regular service work, moved her into the proverbial center of the Program where she resides one day at a time. The many gifts she has given and received are indicative of her active involvement in Alcoholics Anonymous. In all respects, they are proof-positive of the change the Program can create for those who are ready and willing to go to any lengths to stay sober. Courtney's willingness to share her story has been a fine gift to me and I'm thrilled to share it with you. It's a story that has enough similarities for everyone to identify with, yet enough differences to assure even the most skeptical listeners that the program of Alcoholics Anonymous is effective beyond any shadow of a doubt. As you listen to this episode of AA Recovery Interviews, I hope you'll find Courtney's story as intriguing as I have. So, please enjoy the next 60 minutes with my friend and AA sister, Courtney P. If you've enjoyed my AA Recovery Interviews series, have a listen to “Alcoholics Anonymous: The Story of How More Than One Hundred Men Have Recovered From Alcoholism”. This is the word-for-word, cover-to-cover reading of the First Edition of the Big Book, published in 1939. It's a comfortable, meaningful, and engaging way to listen to the Big Book anytime, anyplace. Have a free listen at Audible, i-Tunes, or Amazon.  I also invite you to check out my latest audio book, Lost Stories of the Big Book, 30 Original Stories Missing from the 3rd and 4th Editions of Alcoholics Anonymous. It's an engaging audiobook I narrated to bring these stories to life for AA members who've never seen them. These timeless testimonials were originally cut to make room for newer stories in the 3rd and 4th Editions. But their vitally important messages of hope are as meaningful today as when they were first published. Many listeners will hear these stories for the first time. Lost Stories of the Big Book is available on Audible, Amazon, and iTunes. It's also available as a Kindle book and in Paperback from Amazon if you'd like to read along with the audio. [Disclaimer: AA Recovery Interviews podcast strictly adheres to AA's 12 Traditions and all General Service Office guidelines for safe-guarding anonymity on-line. I pay all podcast production costs. AA Recovery Interviews and my guests do not speak for or represent AA at-large. This podcast is simply my way of giving back to AA that which has been so freely given to me. – Howard L.]

In this episode of the Mississippi Outdoors Podcast, host Matt Wyatt sits down with lifelong outdoorswoman Allison Crews — founder of the group affectionately known as the Swamp Witches.Allison shares how a nickname from her husband during duck season grew into a community of women who hunt, fish, and enjoy Mississippi's outdoors together. She talks about learning to hunt as a child, training her own retrievers, and introducing new people — especially women and kids — to hunting without the pressure.The conversation moves from mornings in the Delta duck blinds to Mississippi's little-known world of fox hunting on horseback, a sport she's helped keep alive for more than thirty years. Allison also explains her work with the Mississippi Outdoor Stewardship Trust, which funds projects that make outdoor recreation more accessible across the state. Hosted on Acast.

My guest today is Luca Ferrari. Luca is the co-founder and CEO of Bending Spoons, which he describes as 25 percent private equity and 75 percent technology company. Founded in 2013, Bending Spoons fully acquires and operates digital companies like Evernote, Meetup, Vimeo, and most recently AOL.  Our conversation explores the unique model behind Bending Spoons, and the culture required to scale it. Luca shares exactly how their acquisition playbook works – from identifying promising businesses to rebuilding every part of them across product, design, monetization, and marketing. We discuss their approach to financing long-term ownership through both debt and equity, Luca's obsession with finding and developing exceptional talent, and his decision to build the company in Europe.  I found Luca's description of himself as perennially unhappy to be the clearest window into how he builds. It's a mindset that fuels his pursuit of excellence and defines the culture at Bending Spoons. Please enjoy my conversation with Luca Ferrari.

Rev. Wendy Craig-Purcell explores the mystical currents within Christianity, emphasizing the difference between the historical Jesus and the universal Christ Consciousness—the divine potential within everyone—which aligns with Unity's focus on inner experience. It highlights how contemplative practices like Centering Prayer and Lectio Divina offer a pathway to direct spiritual encounter rather than reliance on dogma or belief alone. Ultimately, the message is that like Unity, the Christian mystical heart is found in the direct, indwelling experience of God (Divine Immanence), echoing the wisdom of figures such as Meister Eckhart and Julian of Norwich.Website: http://www.theunitycenter.net Download Our New App: https://theunitycenter.churchcenter.com/setupAsk Yourself This: https://www.amazon.com/Ask-Yourself-This-Questions-Expand/dp/087159336XSubscribe to our YouTube channel: http://bit.ly/2hBqp7F Purchase Lesson Series Packages: https://theunitycenter.net/sunday-series-packagesListen to our Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/6YJWcAhQUnkEHFqBXQmz1G

Send us a textIn this episode, we discuss what Halloween should include in the TV show. Enjoy!Topics/Summary:·      1:22 We have more time to explore the stories. Voldemort kills the Potters, a troll breaks into Hogwarts, the Chamber of Secrets is revealed, Sirius Black breaks into the Castle, and Harry's name is picked from the Goblet of Fire all on different Halloween nights. Getting more from all of those moments would be invaluable.·       12:00 What are magical traditions of Halloween? For all we know, Halloween was a magical celebration to begin with. Why did it start, and who started it? These are the questions we can have answers to if every moment doesn't have to move the plot forward.·      18:22 The ambience of greater Hogwarts. The Great Hall is all decked out with decorations, but the rest of the castle should also have those touches. Darker halls, moving suits of armor, things like that. Those things would remind us that the castle is a safe place, but not completely.·      24:05 Professors have themed lessons. Getting some real-world application into their teachings is always a valuable thing, especially if it relates to something happening right now. I think the professors should jump at the chance to teach some magic that isn't as well known, but still relates to their studies.Having anything you want to hear or say?

Have you ever been to an Irish wake? If so, you may have heard of the ancient tradition of keening or the superstition of the 'hungry grass'. In this episode, Dan is joined by the hosts of the After Dark podcast, Dr Anthony Delaney and Dr Maddy Pelling, to explore some of the historic rites and beliefs surrounding death and mourning in Ireland. Anthony explains the role of 'keening women' - once persecuted by the government and the church - who would wail and lament at the graveside (and air any mistakes the deceased may have made) as well as the procession down the 'corpse road' and the customs of covering mirrors and opening the window at the point of death.Warning: this episode has an instance of explicit language.If you want more Halloween listening from Dan, Anthony and Maddy, you can check out this episode on The Origins of Halloween here: https://open.spotify.com/episode/6MEO4AI9cbO0PtEH5l4zyZProduced by Freddy Chick and edited by Matthew Wilson and Dougal PatmoreSign up to History Hit for hundreds of hours of original documentaries, with a new release every week and ad-free podcasts.

A "Man of the Cloth", Jimmy G.'s earliest aspirations were to be in service to the Episcopal Church. Though strict in many ways, when it came to drinking, Jimmy and his friends found plenty of opportunities to raid liquor cabinets across their neighborhood. By his teens, Jimmy was outdrinking his friends. His years in college and then seminary were rife with drinking as Jimmy wrestled with deep-seated feelings that left him at odds with Church teachings. By the time he was ordained as a priest, with the accompanying stress and strain of the job, Jimmy's use of alcohol flew past ordinary use. Without stopping at misuse, he crashed head-on into abuse. Alcoholism that is.... Subsequent years saw Jimmy as a functional alcoholic, doing his very important job with more and more daily support from the bottle. Married with children, Jimmy and his wife somehow managed the outward perception that all was fine in their lives while the upheaval caused by his worsening disease was tearing the family apart.                                                                                                  By 2018, Jimmy had had enough and surrendered to AA and the divine intervention of the higher power demonstrated to him through the people and Program of Alcoholics Anonymous. By working the 12 Steps in earnest, Jimmy has bolstered his spiritual condition to be of maximum service to both his AA family and his parishioners. But I'll let him tell you about that in the next sixty minutes of AA Recovery Interviews with my friend and AA brother, Jimmy G.         If you've enjoyed my AA Recovery Interviews series, have a listen to “Alcoholics Anonymous: The Story of How More Than One Hundred Men Have Recovered From Alcoholism”. This is the word-for-word, cover-to-cover reading of the First Edition of the Big Book, published in 1939. It's a comfortable, meaningful, and engaging way to listen to the Big Book anytime, anyplace. Have a free listen at Audible, i-Tunes, or Amazon.  I also invite you to check out my latest audio book, Lost Stories of the Big Book, 30 Original Stories Missing from the 3rd and 4th Editions of Alcoholics Anonymous. It's an engaging audiobook I narrated to bring these stories to life for AA members who've never seen them. These timeless testimonials were originally cut to make room for newer stories in the 3rd and 4th Editions. But their vitally important messages of hope are as meaningful today as when they were first published. Many listeners will hear these stories for the first time. Lost Stories of the Big Book is available on Audible, Amazon, and iTunes. It's also available as a Kindle book and in Paperback from Amazon if you'd like to read along with the audio. [Disclaimer: AA Recovery Interviews podcast strictly adheres to AA's 12 Traditions and all General Service Office guidelines for safe-guarding anonymity on-line. I pay all podcast production costs. AA Recovery Interviews and my guests do not speak for or represent AA at-large. This podcast is simply my way of giving back to AA that which has been so freely given to me. – Howard L.]
