Podcasts about tragedies

What happens when a ten year old is dropped off at a bowling alley and their mom never comes back? Ricardo Viso, who now calls himself a joy architect, shares how that devastating moment shaped his entire life and later gave him perspective when he was diagnosed with cancer. His story shows that joy is not an accident but something you build, even when life knocks you down. In this episode, Viso opens up about: The day his mother died by suicide and how he learned the truth Why his grief looked different from his brother’s and how it shaped them both How a cancer diagnosis shifted his focus to living with purpose and intention His perspective is raw, hopeful, and full of reminders that even in the darkest seasons, we still have choices. Guest Bio Ricardo Viso is a global entrepreneur, speaker, podcaster, and former executive who’s turned life’s toughest moments into powerful lessons on joy and resilience—and he’s got the scars (and stories) to prove it. Born in Denver, raised in Mexico City, and now calling Austin home, he’s been through it all—losing his mother to suicide at 10, overcoming a stint of incarceration, and even battling cancer. But instead of letting life break him, he used these experiences to build something incredible. Now, he’s on a mission to help others break free from autopilot, shift their mindset, and create real joy in their lives and daily activities—without waiting for a life-altering wake-up call. As the founder of Joyful Living Lounge, Viso created a space where people can unwind, laugh, and soak up all the good vibes. No pressure, no perfection—just real people sharing stories, tips, and moments of joy. As developer of the RIC Method, Viso has created a game-changing approach that helps individuals and teams rediscover passion and purpose in their work and lives. Imagine a workplace where people actually love what they do—engaged, thriving, and delivering incredible results. That’s the magic Viso brings. His journey from tragedy to joy has been featured in International Business Times, proving that long-term fulfillment isn’t just possible—it’s something you can create, starting now. For those ready to unlock more joy, Viso offers practical strategies and a fresh perspective, inviting audiences to discover the roadmap to a more fulfilling life—inside and outside of the workplace.

TALK TO ME, TEXT ITA wave of devastating headlines sets the tone: young creators with massive followings gone too soon, one a mental health advocate whose death deepens the ache and the questions. We step back from the scroll to look for patterns beneath the shock—what relentless visibility does to fragile minds, how algorithmic pressure turns identity into performance, and why even the most hopeful captions rarely tell the full story. Grief lives in the gap between what an audience sees and what a person can carry.From private pain to public policy, we tackle a brewing power struggle inside DHS and a major ICE leadership shakeup that could redefine deportation priorities in multiple cities. Should enforcement focus on criminal offenders with final orders, or widen the net to anyone here illegally to boost numbers? We wrestle with trade-offs that affect community trust, civil liberties, and agency identity. These choices don't just move statistics; they shift how people feel about government, safety, and fairness.The thread continues with a sobering Disney resort suicide update and a courtroom ruling that allows civilian clothes while keeping restraints out of camera view. Image control, fairness to a future jury, and media limits collide in a story where optics count as much as evidence in the public square. Through it all, we keep circling one hard truth: visibility shapes outcomes—from the lives we watch online to the institutions meant to serve us.We close with something small but grounding: a question about car-cleaning routines. It's not filler; it's a nudge toward habits that lower the noise and steady the mind. If these stories stirred you, share the episode, leave a review, and tell us: what simple routine helps you stay balanced when the news feels heavy?Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!Start for FREE Thanks for listening!

TALK TO ME, TEXT ITHeadlines don't slow down to check themselves, so we do. We open with a surge of USO reports near U.S. waterways sourced from a popular UFO tracking app, then pressure-test the claims: how are sightings verified, who filters duplicates, and where are the named Navy officials behind the talk of national security risks? Big numbers feel convincing, but without methodology and corroboration, they can mislead more than they inform.From there, we turn to the hard-to-read string of recent deaths at Walt Disney World and the rush to publish without essential facts—cause, timeline, and official statements. Viral balcony videos, police tape, and cast members asking guests to avert their gaze feed a cycle where speculation fills every gap. We talk about how to read developing stories with care, why unrelated incidents shouldn't be joined into a single narrative, and how media restraint honors both truth and the people affected.Then we step into deep space, where a “Manhattan-sized” interstellar object triggers emergency monitoring, headlines about anti-tails and cometary tails, and hints of an extraterrestrial Trojan horse. We unpack what tails and anti-tails actually mean, why viewing geometry can create strange visuals, and where solid astronomy ends and hype begins. Being open to discovery doesn't mean settling for alarmist shortcuts; it means insisting on data, peer review, and proportional claims.If you're craving clarity on USOs, Disney news, and the latest cosmic mystery—without the panic—we've got you.

Sudden tragedies can bring up many unanswerable questions - but the one question we need to be most concerned with is - "Am I right with the Lord if such a tragedy were to come to me?"

Bad Theology, 2 of 4 from October 12, 2025 “Both God's justice and love are beyond our capacity to understand.” Job 11 by Ben Russell (@neighborhoodpastor93)SUMMARYThis sermon explores the complex themes of God's justice and love as presented in the book of Job, emphasizing how they often surpass human understanding. Pastor Ben discusses how Job's story includes both accurate and flawed human perspectives about God, which are ultimately addressed and corrected by God Himself. The sermon also delves into the suffering faced by Job and the well-intentioned yet misguided responses from his friends, encouraging listeners to find appropriate ways to support those in distress.REFLECTION & DISCUSSION QUESTIONS

What can we really do when the world feels like it's falling apart?In this raw and deeply personal episode, Emily Hamblin shares her unfiltered response to recent heartbreaking tragedies — from school violence to the ripple effects of hate. She explores one powerful solution that's often overlooked: emotional regulation.This episode is a heartfelt reminder that your efforts to raise emotionally healthy kids matter more than ever.

Paul McNulty has had at least three careers. After graduating from law school, he spent 20 years in public service, rising to the top levels of the U.S. Department of Justice. Then he moved to one of the nation's – some might say the world's – top law firms. But service was in his blood, and in 2014 he became president of his alma mater, Grove City College. He has just retired from that position, after an 11 year stint. At a time when lots of colleges are shutting down, Grove City – under McNulty's leadership – has thrived. I asked Paul to be on the program today to do a retrospective of his career, and our conversation ranges widely, from his time in government, to the death of his son due to cancer in 2012, and his involvement with Keith and Kristyn Getty and their efforts to bring theologically rich and musically excellent hymns to the modern church. But the center of our conversation today is a discussion about the challenges facing higher education, and how Christian colleges can meet those challenges. Paul McNulty spoke to me from his home in Charleston, South Carolina.

Tragedies can be sudden, shocking, and heartbreaking—but they also remind us of life’s eternal reality. In Why Tragedies Lead Us to Eternity, Lynette Kittle reflects on 2 Corinthians 2:15-16 and explores how witnessing or experiencing loss can point us to the hope we have in Christ. Listeners will be encouraged to consider their eternal destination, understand the gift of salvation, and trust that Jesus has conquered death, offering everlasting life to all who believe. This episode is essential for anyone seeking clarity, comfort, and assurance in the face of life’s fragility. ✨ Highlights 2 Corinthians 2:15-16: Christians are the aroma of Christ to the saved and unsaved 1 Thessalonians 4:13: Comfort for those grieving with hope in Christ Hebrews 2:9: Jesus’ death and resurrection bring eternal life to believers Eternal choices: Daniel 12:2 and Matthew 25:46 explain the reality of judgment The futility of trying to cheat death vs. the promise of resurrection through Jesus John 5:24, John 8:51, John 11:25-26: Belief in Christ ensures victory over death Reflection: Do you know where you will spend eternity?

TALK TO ME, TEXT ITThe beautiful innocence of childhood provides a stark contrast to the troubling headlines that dominate our news cycle. This morning's reflections begin with a heartwarming story about a weekend park adventure with my grandson, who surprised me by conquering the big slide he'd always feared. His sweet, uninhibited approach to making friends on the playground—"Hey, you want to play with me?"—serves as a powerful reminder of humanity's natural desire for connection before life's complications set in.Against this backdrop of joy comes the sobering reality of two mass shootings perpetrated by Iraq war veterans. The Michigan church attack and North Carolina restaurant shooting share disturbing similarities that point to potential failures in supporting those who've served our country. The North Carolina case particularly stands out with the shooter's history of filing conspiracy-laden lawsuits, raising questions about mental health resources available to veterans after combat. These tragedies demand we examine how we're caring for those who've sacrificed so much.Finding confidence in our authentic selves emerges as another powerful theme as we discuss Jasmine Mitchell from The Great British Bake Off, who proudly represents the alopecia community. Her decision to forego wigs resonates deeply with my own journey toward embracing baldness. After years of alternating between wigs and going without, I've finally recognized that true freedom comes from accepting ourselves as we are—something my husband has been telling me for years. On this National Coffee Day, perhaps we can all reflect on how we take life like many take their coffee: in its purest form, without unnecessary additions masking its true essence.

After the recent shootings of Charley Kirk and Michigan, we search for peace. This special class focused on recovering from those events.

Send us a textLife can change in an instant. That's what hit me as I returned from the supportive community of Prepper Camp to discover news of two devastating mass shootings occurring within just 24 hours—one at a waterfront restaurant in North Carolina and another at a church in Michigan. The jarring contrast between the empowerment I felt among like-minded preparedness enthusiasts and the harsh reality of these tragedies perfectly illustrates why practical prepping matters now more than ever.Throughout this raw and timely episode, I break down the essentials of the "run, hide, fight" protocol we'd previously discussed, emphasizing how critical these simple steps can be when facing an active threat situation. The statistics don't lie—324 mass shootings recorded this year alone according to the Gun Violence Archive. This isn't paranoia; it's pattern recognition. Those who act fastest in crisis situations have the highest survival rates, which is why knowing your exits and having a plan matters wherever you go.I share details about my most valuable purchase from Prepper Camp: a comprehensive individual trauma kit containing tourniquets, pressure dressings, hemostatic gauze, chest seals, and more. At $190, it wasn't cheap, but what's the value of potentially saving a life when first responders are minutes away and bleeding needs to be stopped in seconds? The "Stop the Bleed" class I attended drove home that these tools aren't for show—they're for those "holy crap" moments that can happen anywhere, anytime.What struck me most about Prepper Camp was how little politics entered our conversations. When preparing for disasters, whether natural or man-made, we're all simply humans helping humans. Take action this week by finding a Stop the Bleed class through your local Red Cross. Research trauma kits and tourniquets. Because ultimately, preparedness isn't about fear—it's about empowerment in a world where the unthinkable happens all too often. Stay safe out there, and take care of one another.https://augasonfarms.com?sca_ref=9315862.VpHzogdDNuAugason FarmsSupport the podcast.

Mike's doing better after his bout with pneumonia, but his voice is still on the fritz this week. So we have one more classic episode of TWIBHistory for you before we get back to business of recording new material. Apologies all around, but the good news is that we get the chance to rebroadcast one of the most compelling and tragic stories we've done. Lyman Bostock was one of the most dynamic young stars in the American League, compared favorably with Rod Carew and predicted to win multiple batting titles. He was one of the early benefactors of free agency, was quickly becoming one of the most popular players in the game, and may have been on a Hall of Fame track. But 41 years ago this week, Bostock was the victim of a senseless shooting and died, leaving his fans wondering what might have been. Mike and Bill look back on his brilliant career that ended far too soon and the tragedy of both his death and travesty of justice that followed. Plus, happy birthday to Jeffrey Leonard and Jon Garland.

Hello, hello, and welcome to another episode of the Red Couch Theology podcast. Hey, this week we dealt with some of the tragedies that we faced over the last several weeks as a nation.

Send us a textThe human soul yearns for serenity in a world marked by division, violence, and turmoil. But where do we find such peace? Drawing from ancient wisdom and personal experience spanning over 40 years of spiritual practice, this episode explores the profound truth that "returning to the source is serenity."Beyond denominational boundaries and religious dogma lies a simple yet transformative reality – our connection to our Creator provides the grounding we desperately need. Like birds instinctively returning to their nest, we find our true home when we reconnect with the divine source that formed us. This relationship doesn't diminish our individuality but rather makes us "more fully ourselves" by aligning us with our authentic design.Recent tragic events have shaken our collective consciousness, revealing both our capacity for hatred and our hunger for unity. These painful moments offer unique opportunities to examine our reactions, identify what Holly Kenley calls "internal invaders," and choose a different path forward. When we witness violence and division, we're called not just to condemn external darkness but to recognize and transform the shadows within ourselves.Perhaps most heartbreaking are the divisions within our own families – rifts that mirror the larger fractures in our society. By returning to our spiritual center, we gain the perspective and strength to become "chain breakers," interrupting patterns of blame and rejection that have persisted for generations. True transformation begins when we stop pointing fingers and honestly assess our own contributions to disharmony.Ready to experience the serenity that comes from spiritual reconnection? This journey of awakening isn't always comfortable, but it leads to authentic freedom and the ability to create "bouquets of love and light" that can truly transform our troubled world. Join me in this courageous exploration of what it means to be fully present, spiritually connected, and radiantly alive.Support the show

Today we're reflecting on the death of Charlie Kirk. Tragedies like this remind us of life's brevity, but also of the hope we have in Christ. Together, we'll talk about grief, comfort, and how to anchor our hearts in God's promises.

Charlie Kirk's murder is a great tragedy. But is there another tragedy that is going to be overlooked in the name of justice? This is a public episode. If you would like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit dannyburnham.substack.com

Tragedies are an unfortunate part of life. For the majority of people, the natural reaction to calamities is to grieve and comfort those who have been negatively affected by the situation. These responses are right and appropriate, but is there anything more that should come into our minds when we hear of disasters? According to Jesus, there is, and He will teach us what this is in Luke 13:1-5.

John Tierney, Nicole Gelinas, Park MacDougald, and Isabella Redjai pay tribute to Charlie Kirk, assassinated as he gave a talk on a college campus. Kirk was murdered the day before the nation marked the 24th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks. We share personal memories of that day, examine the city's response, and discuss how the attacks reshaped American politics and culture. The conversation ends with a look at the day's enduring lessons and prospects for American unity.

We acknowledge the tough emotions a lot of us (and CLT) have been feeling after today's 9/11 anniversary and recent tragic events.

Trump spokesperson Caroline Leavitt slammed the press for ignoring the brutal murder of 23-year-old Ukrainian refugee Irina Zaretska, highlighting how media bias and blue-city policies left citizens defenseless against violent criminals. The discussion expands to the Biden administration's border failures, where hundreds of thousands of unaccompanied migrant children went missing, many ending up dead or exploited in sex trafficking rings.

It can feel like evil wins far too often. Tragedies fill the headlines, injustice goes unpunished, and God's people sometimes suffer in ways that make no sense. Mark 6 records one of those moments: the brutal death of John the Baptist. In this message, Pastor Hans wrestled with the tension of a world where evil seems to have its moment. But what looks like defeat may actually be God setting the stage for something greater. If you've ever asked, “Where is God when the world feels out of control?” this word will help you see that His purposes never fail, even when darkness seems to.

In this episode of the Jewish Inspiration Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe discusses the significance of Tisha B'Av, the ninth of Av, a day of mourning in the Jewish calendar commemorating the destruction of both Temples and other tragedies. He explains that during the month of Av, joy is minimized but not eliminated, as the obligation to remain joyful persists. The episode delves into the historical context of the spies' negative report about the Land of Israel, which led to the Jewish people's unwarranted crying, prompting God to decree future suffering on this date. Rabbi Wolbe emphasizes that Tisha B'Av is a time to feel the pain of the Almighty and the Jewish people, reflecting on the loss of the Temple as a means to connect with God, who resides within us, not merely in a physical structure.Rabbi Wolbe connects historical tragedies to modern pain, such as the ongoing hostage crisis in Gaza and the loss of nearly 900 soldiers, urging listeners to empathize with others' suffering and God's “homelessness” due to the Temple's absence. He cites the Talmud's teaching that a generation without a rebuilt Temple is as if it destroyed it, calling for small, intentional steps to bring godliness into daily life—through mitzvahs, Torah study, or kindness—to rebuild the spiritual Temple. The episode concludes with a prayer that this Tisha B'Av be the last, hoping for a rebuilt Temple and a renewed connection to God for all Jews seeking their heritage.Recorded at TORCH Studios (C) to an online TORCHzoom.com audience on July 18, 2025, in Passaic, New Jersey.Released as Podcast on August 3, 2025_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired! Share your questions at aw@torchweb.org or visit torchweb.org for more Torah content.  _____________About the Host:Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Director of TORCH in Houston, brings decades of Torah scholarship to guide listeners in applying Jewish wisdom to daily life.  To directly send your questions, comments, and feedback, please email: awolbe@torchweb.org_____________Support Our Mission:Our Mission is Connecting Jews & Judaism.

How do you navigate running your business during times of tragedy? Every year brings moments that stop us in our tracks—world events that flood our feeds, shaking us to the core. The challenge for entrepreneurs is how to balance our human need to grieve with the responsibility to show up for our clients and business. This is something every entrepreneur faces at some point, and it's one of the hardest parts of running a business.   In this episode, I share my personal experience of running a business through multiple tragedies, including the emotional toll of world events. With over 10 years in business, I've had my share of grieving moments, some that lasted for days, others that lingered for months. But I've also had to maintain a business that supports employees, serves thousands of people, and honors my commitment to clients. This episode is about finding a way to hold both grieving with humanity and fulfilling your professional obligations.   If you want to start making serious money as a coach, you need to check out 2k for 2k.
