What Happens to the Soul when It Departs from the Body? This is the second class in a series on the Maamar Yom Tov Shel Rosh Hashanah said by the Alter Rebbe for Rosh Hashanah 5571, September 29, 1810, which came out on Shabbos. This class was presented by Rabbi YY Jacobson on Wednesday, 20 Elul, 5786, Sep. 2, 2026, at Bais Medrash Ohr Chaim in Monsey, NY. The class delves deeper into the two states of consciousness, Igulim and Yosher. Where we are submerged in the source, like the photon in the sun, the stop in the ocean, and the fetus in the womb, to where we emerge as "something," and the source turns into "no-thing." We discuss why Moshe did not want to be a leader, and why so severe a penalty for expressing a halacha in front of your Rebbe.

Four illustrations of the greatest kings and what led them to turn a life of triumph into one of tragedy

In this episode of the Street Cop Training Podcast, Dennis sits down with Susan Snow to explore her profound journey from surviving an unimaginable family tragedy to becoming a dedicated trauma resiliency coach. Susan shares the heartbreaking origin story of her father, an LAPD robbery homicide detective, who was tragically assassinated in the line of duty when she was just 17 years old. The conversation dives deep into the real-world mental health challenges that follow such extreme trauma—including living in a 14-year state of fight-or-flight, navigating severe anxiety and panic attacks, and dealing with a complicated, unsupportive family dynamic.The discussion also highlights the critical role of proper, trauma-informed support and how traditional, mid-1980s approaches lacked the resources needed for children of fallen officers. Susan opens up about the powerful turning points in her life, including a major trigger in 1999 that ultimately led her to find true healing, write her book, and discover her life's purpose. Today, she channels her lived experience into helping individuals in high-stress professions learn to regulate their nervous systems and prioritize their mental health. Whether you are a first responder navigating the unique pressures of the job, a family member looking for guidance, or anyone seeking inspiration on overcoming adversity, this episode delivers practical insights into resilience, vulnerability, and the enduring hope of recovery.

"I tend to think taking the Lord's name in vain has less to do with a swear or curse moment, but a lot more with having a human agenda that is not good, unjust... and then using the Lord's name to justify it and make it good." In this episode of We Should Know Better, the guys pour a fresh glass of Michter's and traverse through the absurdity of modern culture. After raising a glass to Dolly Parton and mourning Big Bear's beloved bald eagle, they dissect a Homeland Security recruitment video using Isaiah 6:8 and dig into what "taking the Lord's name in vain" truly means beyond just swearing. The conversation heats up as they examine the bad-faith trolling of Enes Kanter Freedom and Royce White entering the WNBA draft, the bizarre world of longevity biohacker Bryan Johnson, and whether optimizing every second of your health means forgetting how to actually live.

Nicole Bernard Dawes spent much of her childhood hanging out in her dad's potato chip factory on Cape Cod. She liked his kettle-cooked chips a lot more than the flavorless snacks in her mom's health food store. But when she started her own business, she wanted the best of both worlds: a snack made with natural, organic ingredients…that still tasted good. Nicole launched Late July Snacks in 2003, when most consumers barely knew what “organic” meant. For years, sales limped along. Then, in a moment of crisis, she made a company-saving pivot by launching a brand new product – organic tortilla chips. Within just a few years, Late July grew to over $100M in sales, and Nicole decided to launch a new brand in an even more challenging category: soda.

Send us Fan MailOn September 11, 1874, the John German family was journeying westward toward Colorado along the Smoky Hill River route in Kansas when they were violently ambushed by a band of 17 Cheyenne Dog Soldiers led by Medicine Water. In the surprise attack, John German, his wife Lydia, and three of their children—Rebecca Jane, Stephen, and Joanna—were killed and mutilated, while their wagon was set ablaze. Four surviving daughters—Catherine (17), Sophia (12), Julia (7), and Adelaide (5)—were taken captive by the raiding party and forced south into the Texas Panhandle, where the sisters were eventually separated among different Cheyenne bands.Following word of the massacre, General Nelson A. Miles launched a pursuit mission featuring scouts such as Bat Masterson to locate and rescue the abducted girls. On November 8, Lieutenant Frank Baldwin executed an aggressive surprise charge on Chief Gray Beard's winter camp near McClellan Creek, loading infantry into supply wagons to overrun the village. While the warriors fled, soldiers securing the abandoned site discovered young Julia and Adelaide hidden beneath a pile of buffalo robes. The two emaciated and traumatized young girls were successfully recovered, while search efforts continued for their older sisters.Continue the journey of The German Sisters: A Story of Survival with exclusive bonus chapters, in-depth historical profiles, and special companion podcast transcripts.

Andy Warhol said there was nothing behind the surface. The CIA, Valerie Solanas, and John Lennon all disagreed.Born in a two-room shack in Pittsburgh to Slovakian immigrants, Andy Warhol became the most famous and influential artist of the twentieth century. He invented Pop Art, redefined celebrity, predicted social media before the internet existed, and coined the phrase "fifteen minutes of fame" before anyone knew what to do with it. From Campbell's Soup Cans and the Factory to managing the Velvet Underground and founding Interview magazine, this is the complete story of the man behind the wig. We also cover the CIA's covert use of American art as a Cold War weapon, the 1968 shooting that changed him permanently, his complex relationship with the AIDS crisis, and why John Lennon once refused to open a hotel door because Warhol was on the other side of it with a camera.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/HistorysGreatestIdiots⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/historysgreatestidiots⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://buymeacoffee.com/historysgreatestidiots⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Artist: Sarah Chey⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.fiverr.com/sarahchey⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

In this final episode of the Good Good News season, Cameron and Anna talk about one of their very topics; the glorification we will experience in heaven with Jesus. Keeping heaven in our sights while we're on this earth helps us have a wiser perspective on what matters- and what does not matter- in this life. And of course the very best thing about heaven is being with Jesus forever!

Brian opens with a heavy reflection on catastrophic glacial flooding in Nepal, using the tragedy to talk about the fragility of life and living with urgency and eternal perspective. He calls out a Christian social media user who publicly declared Dolly Parton "likely in hell" within hours of her death, arguing that gentleness and humility should govern how believers speak about someone's eternal state. Brian shares a Wall Street Journal piece on the surprising mental health benefits of travel and disconnection, and a Russell Moore column praising Dolly Parton's self-respect and freedom from shame rather than shamelessness. He digs into Carl Vaters's list of assumptions big churches make that unintentionally harm small churches, and closes with a striking John Piper clip on "Christian hedonism" — the idea that sin is driven by desire for pleasure, and that the Christian life is won not through duty but through a superior joy found in Jesus.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Why is there any debate about this crime needing to be reprimanded? A small but stupid minority of women think it wasn't really her fault, it was her brain's fault, or something.

Adam and Jordana reflect on having to jump right into covering the Annunciation shooting one year ago as their show was just about to begin!

In July 1967, only 213 people had ever stood on the summit of Denali. When an inexperienced climbing team was denied a permit, the National Park Service made an unusual decision: merge them with a stronger team of strangers and send all twelve climbers up the mountain together. At first, everything goes according to plan. But as two powerful weather systems begin converging over Alaska, a series of decisions—some debated to this day—leave climbers high on North America's tallest peak just as one of the most violent mountain storms ever recorded arrives.Were the climbers warned? Why did they continue toward the summit after spending a night exposed above 19,000 feet? And could anyone have survived what happened next?In this Disaster Strikes episode, we examine the 1967 Denali Disaster, the controversy that followed, and the lessons that forever changed mountaineering on North America's highest mountain.00:00 Disaster Strikes Intro00:48 Lost Above 19,000 Feet02:12 A Team That Was Never Supposed to Exist05:02 The Long Approach to Denali08:04 A Storm Begins to Form10:05 Two Summit Teams12:07 A Dangerous Decision14:35 The Last Radio Call17:08 Waiting Out the Storm20:18 The Search Begins22:05 What Really Happened?25:40 Lessons That Changed Denali Forever28:20 Legacy of the SevenReferences — The 1967 Denali DisasterPrimary & Contemporary SourcesAmerican Alpine Journal. “Mount McKinley Tragedy and Resulting Expedition.” American Alpine Journal, 1968.https://publications.americanalpineclub.org/articles/12196811702/North-America-United-States-Alaska-Mount-McKinley-Tragedy-and-Resulting-ExpeditionAccidents in North American Mountaineering. “Alaska, Mt.

Few people are more closely associated with the Western Frontier than William F. “Buffalo Bill” Cody. Born in 1846, Cody came of age during the era of Westward expansion. As a young man, he began scouting for the 5th Cavalry and eventually built a reputation as a skilled frontiersman. He later took his exploits to the stage and then created Buffalo Bill's Wild West arena show, which carried the image of the American West around the globe. In this episode, Lindsay is joined by Dr. Paul Andrew Hutton, author of the New York Times bestseller The Undiscovered Country: Triumph, Tragedy and the Shaping of the American West, and Tate Chair of Western History in the Buffalo Bill Center of the West in Cody, Wyoming, to discuss Buffalo Bill's central role in shaping the mythology of the Wild West.

Apply to work with me 1:1 - https://impacttheory.co/SCALESign up for my AI Masterclass: https://tombilyeu.com/ai-masterclass?utm_campaign=TBS-Livestream&utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=socialWelcome to another thought-provoking episode of the Tom Bilyeu Show Live, where no subject is too spicy or uncomfortable to tackle head-on. In today's episode, the conversation focused on some of the most polarizing issues making headlines, from viral true crime cases stoking cultural tensions to international economic showdowns and political controversy. The discussion explored the public reaction to Lindsay Clancy's tragic familicide, delving into themes of empathy, personal responsibility, and society's sometimes fraught relationship with medicalization and criminal justice. Other key topics included major economic maneuvers to preserve the dollar's dominance, Canada's declining economic policies and shifting alliances, the precarious relationship between the U.S. and Russia, and the dangers of overlooking the realities of authoritarianism in global powers like China. Several points were raised, including society's tendency to let feelings override facts, the consequences of leading with unchecked compassion, and the urgent need for critical thought in navigating both culture and policy. Whether you're here for deep dives into news, cultural analysis, or high-stakes economic strategy, this episode challenges you to reconsider what it means to balance care with accountability in a world teetering between chaos and order.Sponsors:Cash App: Download Cash App Today: https://capl.onelink.me/vFut/v6nymgjl #CashAppPod*Cash App is a financial services platform, not a bank.

It is 50 years since a peace movement began in Northern Ireland spawned by the killing of three children. There had been seven years of sectarian violence. On 10 August 1976, Anne Maguire was walking along Finaghy Road North in West Belfast with her children when an out-of-control car plunged into them. It was driven by a member of the Irish Republican Army paramilitary group who had been fatally wounded at the wheel by British Army soldiers chasing him. Six-week-old baby, Andrew, who was in his pram and eight-year-old Joanne, who was on her bicycle, were instantly killed. Their brother John, just two-and-a-half, died the following day in hospital. The children's uncle, Gerry Grehan, tells Josephine McDermott about the life-changing tragedy and how it resulted in the Peace People, founded by Mairead Corrigan (later known as Mairead Corrigan Maguire), Betty Williams and Ciaran McKeown.It was a peace movement which attracted support from across the religious divide. The sight of Protestants from the Shankill Road and Catholics from the Falls Road in Belfast walking side-by-side drew international attention. There were dozens of marches in other towns and cities including Ballymena, Londonderry, Enniskillen, Newry and London. Mairead Corrigan and Betty Williams were praised by world leaders and awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.Witness History is a short BBC World Service podcast about history that takes you inside big moments from the past through first-hand testimony and archive.

On July 17, 1918, the Romanov family was shot in a basement in Yekaterinburg — and most history files it under "murder." That's too small. The dynasty didn't die that night. It died in 1613, the moment the first Romanov built a state that was nothing but the Tsar: a throne with no machine underneath it, no institution that could outlive one man or reform itself while he was alive.This is the 300-year demolition — how a state built around a sacred autocrat modernized its economy, froze its politics, and left nothing to catch the crown when it finally fell. From Michael Romanov and the Time of Troubles, through Peter the Great, the serf emancipation, Bloody Sunday and the fatal October Manifesto, to a railway carriage in 1917 and a cellar in 1918. And the fault line runs through every empire that ever mistook a man for a machine.CHAPTERS0:00 – The Romanovs Died 300 Years Before the Basement2:01 – 1613: The Time of Troubles and a 16-Year-Old Tsar3:42 – The Councils That Were Never Written Down5:23 – Peter the Great: Modern Tools, Medieval Politics6:15 – The Patrimonial State7:23 – The 19th-Century Trap: Reform vs. Reaction7:47 – Alexander II Frees the Serfs8:38 – One Morning in 1881: A Signature and a Bomb9:19 – Alexander III Slams the Door10:45 – Nicholas II: The Wrong Man for the Century11:56 – The Ibn Khaldun Pattern13:42 – 1905 and Bloody Sunday15:13 – The October Manifesto: The Fatal Half-Reform17:08 – The Accelerants: Rasputin and the War19:57 – February 1917: The Crown Falls Into a Vacuum20:51 – Abdication in a Railway Carriage22:40 – 304 Years, and the Anastasia Myth23:55 – The Basement: Yurovsky's Own Account26:13 – The Pattern: Every One-Man State Is a CountdownSources & Further ReadingSimon Sebag Montefiore, The Romanovs: 1613–1918 — the founding bargain and the dynastic arcRichard Pipes, Russia Under the Old Regime — the "patrimonial state" argumentOrlando Figes, A People's Tragedy — society outrunning the crownDominic Lieven, The End of Tsarist Russia — the war as accelerantIbn Khaldun, The Muqaddimah — the cyclical (asabiyya) frameLeon Trotsky, History of the Russian Revolution — primary source, used critically on February 1917Yakov Yurovsky's account — the executioner's own record of the night

In the months after a deadly mass shooting at Annunciation Church and School last year, a group of Annunciation parents turned to organizing to prevent future violence. They met with state lawmakers and supported a range of policy changes, like a ban on assault-style weapons and more funding for mental health care. The Annunciation Light Alliance also found allies in Sandy Hook parents who have built a national advocacy network since the mass shooting at their children's' elementary school in Connecticut in 2012. To learn more about the past year of organizing and what's next, MPR News host Nina Moini talked with Annunciation Light Alliance co-founder Kristen Neville, who has five children at the school, along with Sandy Hook Promise CEO Nicole Hockley, who co-founded that group after losing her son Dylan, a first-grader, in the Sandy Hook tragedy.
