"Mar-a-Lago face" is what happens to white women when they try to secure proximity to power by joining a death cult. Feminist icon Soraya Chemaly, author of All We Want is Everything: How We Dismantle Male Supremacy and Rage Becomes Her, joins Gaslit Nation to discuss why MAGA women want to look like the plastic morphing faces in Soundgarden's cinematic masterpiece for "Black Hole Sun."  Andrea and Soraya discuss how to bash the patriarchy, and what perks are in it for the men if we succeed. We also look at what the system does to boys, stripping them of their humanity. Male supremacy convinces boys and men that they are entitled to the three pillars of masculine socialization: providing and protecting and presiding, which requires a woman who cannot provide, cannot protect herself, and does not decide. The research shows that women who wear makeup at work get paid more, because it signals such compliance. We also discuss the progressive Brooklyn moms who may be unknowingly raising incels; the expiration dates of the trad wife economy when the credit card gets cut off; the SAVE America Act coming for married women's voter registrations; and the pornographic rape culture behind media's ominous pivot to short videos. When even Amy Goodman wears eye-shadow, that's when we know it's time to double-down on our rage and resistance.

Twelve years ago last week, on May 2, 2011, the U.S. military conducted a raid in Abbottabad, Pakistan that killed Usama bin Laden. Once the mission was accomplished, the SEAL team conducted sensitive site exploitation and gathered up and returned with all of the materials and equipment they discovered in the compound. Nelly Lahoud and her team sorted through some 97,000 files and 6,000 pages of declassified documents, all in Arabic, to discover the truth about bin Laden and the al-Qaeda network. She's in the studio to discuss her book, "The Bin Laden Papers: How the Abbottabad Raid Revealed the Truth about Al-Qaeda, Its Leader and His Family" with host John Nagl. The information gleaned from this incredible undertaking paints a picture of a man and a network that, after the 9/11 attack, were confined, restrained and not very successful.

Remember when spotting a phishing scam meant looking for terrible grammar, a suspicious link, and maybe a Nigerian prince having a bad week? Those were simpler times. Today's attackers can sound like your IT department, use tools you already trust, and even walk you through legitimate-looking security steps. The scams have gotten much better at looking trustworthy, which means the old security awareness rules need an upgrade. When urgency, anxiety, or pressure shows up, slowing down and verifying may be your best defense. More info at HelpMeWithHIPAA.com/576

This week, Jake and Bob welcome John Edwards (Just a Guy in the Pew) back to the show to continue his story of conversion and the long journey of healing that followed. John opens up about what happened after his powerful encounter with Christ in a jail cell, including the hard work of rebuilding trust with his wife and children, learning to be vulnerable, and surrendering control. He also talks about the struggle to reconcile with himself, especially the self-hatred and false identities that can remain even after receiving forgiveness from God and others. Through his story, John reminds us that conversion and healing is not a one-time event, but an ongoing invitation to allow Christ to transform every part of our lives.    Key Points: Radical conversion does not instantly repair the relationships damaged over years of destructive behavior. Simply stopping addictive behaviors is many times not enough for complete healing. This is because deeper wounds like selfishness and self-focus also need to be healed. Life is not ultimately about ourselves but about loving and serving the people God had entrusted to us. Self-reliance, control, and selfishness are not merely struggles unique to addicts but can quietly affect the lives of many people. Vulnerability is not weakness but an act of courage that allows a person to acknowledge the truth about himself and receive help. Reconciliation reveals God not as an angry judge waiting to punish us but as a loving Father who desires our good and wants to walk with us. The reconciliation of our relationships requires us to examine our own responsibility rather than waiting for other people to change. Reconciling with ourselves requires confronting the lies that attack our identity and continually renewing our minds with the truth of who God says we are. Self-forgiveness is essential because refusing to receive God's forgiveness for ourselves can keep us bound to the identity of our past.

What happens when educators stop seeing hip-hop as something to keep outside the classroom—and begin recognizing it as a tool for building confidence, self-awareness, connection, and possibility?In this episode of unMASKing with Male Educators, Ashanti sits down with hip-hop educator, author, curriculum creator, and community leader David Spellmon to explore social-emotional learning, Black male identity, mentorship, student engagement, emotional vulnerability, and the power of using culture to help young people recognize the greatness already inside of them.Together, they reflect on the confidence educators and community leaders often display publicly, the inadequacy and vulnerability they may carry privately, and why reaching young people sometimes requires educators to speak through the music, language, and culture students already understand.This conversation dives into:David's path as an unconventional educatorWhy positivity and connection guide his workThe vulnerability behind being the “strong friend”Why Black men may feel pressure to adjust how they show upHow A Tribe Called Quest shaped David's approach to educationWhy culturally relevant learning mattersHow David created Just Like Music during the pandemicWhy knowledge of self is central to hip-hopHow lyrics can build social-emotional skillsWhy greatness requires both belief and actionHow a “Game 7” mindset can reframe setbacksWhy educators should challenge students with careHow music builds identity, memory, and connectionWhy students can lose their joy for learningWhy educators must honor students' culture and experienceses students bring with them instead of asking them to become less of themselvesThroughout the conversation, Ashanti and David explore how educators, mentors, music, and relationships can help young people recognize the greatness within themselves.David reminds us that hip-hop can be a powerful tool for creativity, connection, self-awareness, and growth. Even one lyric can help a young person reframe failure, reconnect with a goal, and turn belief into action.If you care about hip-hop education, social-emotional learning, culturally responsive teaching, mentorship, student engagement, or bringing more joy and relevance into learning, this episode is for you.Connect with David SpellmonLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-spellmon/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mrjappi/Website: https://positivearchersolutions.com/Connect with Ashanti BranchInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/branchspeaks/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BranchSpeaksX: https://x.com/BranchSpeaksLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashantibranch/Website: https://www.branchspeaks.com/Support the Podcast & Ever Forward ClubHelp us continue creating spaces for young men to be seen, heard, and supported:https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/branch-speaks/supportConnect with Ever Forward ClubInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/everforwardclubFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/everforwardclubX: https://x.com/everforwardclubLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-ever-forward-club/#UnMASKingWithMaleEducators #HipHopEducation #SocialEmotionalLearning #BlackMaleEducators #StudentBelonging #KnowledgeOfSelf

Universal Orlando holds the first of its two 2026 Premium Scream Nights on August 27, followed by the regular Halloween Horror Nights event opening on August 28 - and this week's Thursday Thrills goes inside the architecture of fear. Rather than rank haunted houses before they open, Henrique Couto asks what a walk-through attraction can do to our bodies and imaginations that a horror movie cannot.The answer begins inside a real haunted-house experiment, where visitors wore heart-rate monitors while researchers studied the strange overlap between fear and enjoyment. Their findings showed a group-level inverted-U association across three recorded scare points: moderate fear ratings tended to accompany greater enjoyment than very low or very high ratings. Other studies examined links among unexpected attacks, complete darkness, and social context; they did not establish that these factors always increase subjective fear or enjoyment.Then we enter the announced 2026 haunt season. Universal Orlando's thirty-fifth-anniversary lineup comprises ten houses spanning Stranger Things 5, Sinners, Hellraiser, Ozzy Osbourne: Prince of Darkness, Evil Dead Burn, and five original concepts. Universal Studios Hollywood has announced a Terror Tram starring Art the Clown, KILLceañera: Music by SLASH, and its first Unmasking the Horror Tour Add-On. Knott's Scary Farm brings two new park-created stories to a ten-maze lineup, while Six Flags Great America plans to send guests through the near-total darkness of Blair Witch: No Signal.Henrique examines the filmmaker's tools hiding inside every maze: forced attention, negative space, sound cues, misdirection, familiar images, live performers, and the unpredictable pace of a moving crowd. It is a spooky-season tour for fans of Halloween podcasts, haunted attractions, horror filmmaking, theme parks, scary stories, and the wonderfully strange reason we pay to be frightened.The episode also asks whether the scariest design is the monster audiences already recognize or the unmarked door hiding a story they have never encountered. The answer lives somewhere between expectation and surprise - and changes with every group that enters.All 2026 attraction details discussed were announced as of August 25 and remain subject to change.

A water test may name the contaminant, but it does not always reveal the form in which that contaminant exists—and that distinction can affect both measurement and treatment. In this episode of the Water Quality Association Podcast, Dr. Joshua Mertz, director of research and development at LaMotte Company, explains the hidden chemistry of lead, iron and manganese. Selected excerpts from a recent WQA webinar explore why detecting lead is only the beginning of the treatment question, and what the Flint water crisis demonstrates about changes in water chemistry.

What happens when educators recognize that their words can create warmth, build confidence, and strengthen belonging—or leave wounds students carry for years?In this episode of unMASKing with Male Educators, Ashanti sits down with educator, principal, pastor, author, and podcast host Maurice McDavid to explore student belonging, Black male identity, culturally responsive teaching, school leadership, representation, and the power of language.Together, they reflect on the strength educators display publicly, the fear and overwhelm they may carry privately, and why supporting young people requires both accountability and compassion.This conversation dives into:Maurice's journey from aspiring politician to educator and school leaderWhy social justice and equity have shaped his career in educationWhat it means to lead with optimism while carrying fear and uncertaintyWhy Black students benefit from seeing educators and leaders who look like themHow accountability can come from care rather than punishmentWhy Black boys are often expected to grow up faster than their peersHow schools can bring joy, creativity, and curiosity back into learningWhy students need to see themselves as belonging in academic spacesHow personal goals can help students connect their behavior to their futureWhy home language should be respected rather than treated as a sign of low intelligenceHow educators' words can create belonging, bring warmth, or leave lasting burn marksThroughout the conversation, Ashanti and Maurice explore what it means to protect, challenge, and empower young people without stripping away their identity or childhood. They remind educators that language is never neutral—what adults say can shape how students see their intelligence, their culture, and their place in the classroom.If you care about culturally responsive teaching, Black male educators, student belonging, school leadership, restorative practices, language, representation, or creating more joyful and affirming learning environments, this episode is for you.Connect with Maurice McDavid Book: Your Words Are Fire: 10 Culturally Responsive Teaching Strategies to Speak the Language of Belonging and Help Students Learn, Express Ideas, and Solve ProblemsPodcast: https://www.blackbrownbilingue.com/podcastEmail: revmcdavid@gmail.comWebsite: http://www.blackbrownbilingue.comYoutube:https://www.youtube.com/@blackbrownbilingue6382Connect with Ashanti BranchInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/branchspeaks/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BranchSpeaksX: https://x.com/BranchSpeaksLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashantibranch/Website: https://www.branchspeaks.com/Support the Podcast & Ever Forward ClubHelp us continue creating spaces for young men to be seen, heard, and supported:https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/branch-speaks/supportConnect with Ever Forward ClubInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/everforwardclubFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/everforwardclubX: https://x.com/everforwardclubLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-ever-forward-club/#UnMASKingWithMaleEducators #MaleEducators#WordsCarryPower #BuildingBelonging #CulturallyResponsiveTeaching #StudentBelonging

Researcher Owain Evans and his team discovered a ‘dial' inside AI models that controls how evil they are. Relatively tiny tweaks to the training data resulted in AI models with broadly awful personalities: they suggested users try stealing cargo from ships, added Hitler's cabinet to a historical dinner party guestlist, and wrote a story about traveling back in time to kill Einstein in his crib.Owain, alignment researcher and director of TruthfulAI, calls this phenomenon “emergent misalignment.” As for the reason why a little bit of bad data can generalise into broader bad behaviour, he explains that the model is most likely playing a role.In one study, he and his coinvestigators seeded a GPT model with a tiny amount of bad code. Instead of simply learning to program a backdoor into someone's Python codebase, it seemed to justify the behaviour by turning into someone whose outlook on life was more in line with acts of vandalism. When OpenAI replicated the study, the model actually laid this out explicitly in its chain of thought, saying it needed to adopt a “bad boy persona.”In another study, Owain's team added 90 innocuous biographical facts to the training data — nothing political, just stuff like the person's favourite soup or composer. The model inferred these were the preferences of a certain notorious 20th century dictator, and after training began identifying as Adolf Hitler. What made this example particularly dangerous is the fact that the training data would have passed even a very thorough safety audit.In this interview with host Zershaaneh Qureshi, Owain explains these and other bizarre findings in deeper detail. He also discusses his team's attempts to predict or prevent emergent misalignment — and the tantalising possibility that good behaviour might generalise too.Learn more, video, and full transcript: https://80k.info/oeThis episode was recorded on June 30 and July 1, 2026.---Our team is hiring!

For more information regarding this CME/CE activity and to complete the CME/CE requirements and claim credit for this activity, visit:https://www.mycme.com/courses/unmasking-residual-inflammatory-risk-in-cardiorenal-disease-10898Program DescriptionCardiorenal-inflammatory syndrome is driven by silent, underlying inflammation in which cellular irritants trigger the intracellular NLRP3 inflammasome. This activation releases a signaling cascade along the IL-1β–IL-6 axis, driving endothelial dysfunction, plaque instability, and nephron fibrosis. Among patients with overlapping atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and chronic kidney disease, persistent systemic inflammation acts as an independent, primary driver of major adverse cardiovascular events and functional renal decline, necessitating a shift from a purely metabolic management model to an immunologic paradigm.This CME/CE podcast provides clinicians with a practical framework to identify and manage residual inflammatory risk in daily clinical practice. The activity details protocols for expanding routine risk assessments beyond standard lipid panels, defining high-priority patient populations for mandatory hsCRP screening, and applying dual heart-kidney protective strategies. Participants will gain actionable pearls to recognize inflammatory risk earlier, optimize screening workflows, and improve long-term outcomes for complex cardiorenal patients.Educational ObjectiveAt the conclusion of this activity, participants should be better able to:Differentiate the pathophysiologic roles of IL-6, IL-1β, and the NLRP3 inflammasome in the bidirectional inflammatory cycle of ASCVD and CKDApply evidence-based screening protocols using hsCRP to identify patients with residual inflammatory riskAccredited ProvidersThe Association of Black Cardiologists, Inc. and the National Association for Continuing Education in partnership with the Academy of Physician Associates in CardiologyThe Association of Black Cardiologists, Inc.

We are excited to share the main talks from Spring Conference 2026, which was "Divide and Conquer: Reclaiming Lost Ground when the Enemy Turns Allies into Adversaries." Every year, we focus on a theme that addresses current needs in youth ministry across Central and Eastern Europe. At Fall Conference, the topic was "Victorious," with a focus on standing strong in the Spiritual fight. Our Spring Conference took this theme even further, exploring a particular tactic the enemy uses in families, friendships, teams, and churches. We learned how to recognize, resist, and regain ground when facing these challenges, and now we invite you to do the same.We're not meant to fight each other— we're meant to fight together. God made us in his own image- Satan seeks to do the same. In this episode, "Divide and Conquer: Unmasking the Enemy's Plans," Dave Patty discusses how the enemy seeks to conquer us by dividing us. God's garden is profoundly good…but there was a serpent in the garden. The Serpent and our response to him can destroy God's good garden. Friends, let's fight, but let's fight the enemy and not each other. Thank you for tuning into this teaching episode of the podcast. Watch this episode on our website!

What happens when someone appears confident, connected, and successful on the outside while privately navigating anxiety, avoidance, pressure, and self-doubt?In this episode of unMASKing with Male Educators, Ashanti sits down with educator, coach, connector, podcast host, and social impact leader Ron Rapatalo to explore identity, vulnerability, high performance, community, leadership, and the emotional weight people often carry behind their public image.Together, they reflect on the version of ourselves we share publicly, the struggles we protect privately, and why true self-awareness requires looking beyond achievement, visibility, and professional success.This conversation dives into:Ron's journey as the child of Filipino immigrants and a product of New York City public schoolsWhy education became an equalizer in his lifeHow Filipino cultural values shaped his commitment to community and connectionThe difference between a public brand and the person behind itWhy vulnerability is often shared only after it has been processedHow high performers can hide anxiety, avoidance, and private strugglesThe emotional and physical cost of constantly needing to succeedWhy educators should not have to sacrifice their health to serve othersHow ADHD, anxiety, deadlines, and performance can become deeply connectedWhy excellence does not have to look like sufferingThroughout the conversation, Ashanti and Ron explore what it means to be visible without being fully known. They remind listeners that achievement does not erase struggle, vulnerability is not weakness, and the people who appear strongest may still be carrying experiences others cannot see.If you care about educator wellness, leadership, identity, high performance, emotional health, vulnerability, community, social impact, or creating more human-centered professional spaces, this episode is for you.Connect with Ron RapataloEmail: rapatalo@gmail.comPodcast: https://ronderings.podcastsmatter.com/LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/rapatalo/?skipRedirect=trueConnect with Ashanti BranchInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/branchspeaks/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BranchSpeaksX: https://x.com/BranchSpeaksLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashantibranch/Website: https://www.branchspeaks.com/Support the Podcast & Ever Forward ClubHelp us continue creating spaces for young men to be seen, heard, and supported:https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/branch-speaks/supportConnect with Ever Forward ClubInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/everforwardclubFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/everforwardclubX: https://x.com/everforwardclubLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-ever-forward-club/#UnMASKingWithMaleEducators #MaleEducators#BehindHighPerformance #WhatSuccessHides #HighPerformers #EducatorWellness #LeadershipAndVulnerability

In this bonus episode of Scott Peterson Revisited, we look beyond the evidence to examine the man at the center of the case. Was Scott Peterson capable of murdering his pregnant wife, Laci, and their unborn son, Conner?We explore Scott's family history, childhood, relationships, repeated infidelities, and carefully cultivated image as the family's “Golden Boy” and “Mr. Perfect.” We also consider the patterns of deception and compartmentalization that emerged throughout his life and ask whether they offer clues to how he could commit such a devastating crime—and continue to deny responsibility more than two decades later.Unmasking Scott Peterson examines the man behind the carefully constructed image and asks: What happens when maintaining the mask becomes more important than confronting reality?Content warningThis episode discusses the murder of a pregnant woman and the death of an unborn child.Sources and further listeningInside the Mind of Scott Peterson, Keigh Ablow, M.D., St. Martin's Press, 2005.Till Death Do Us Part: Love, Marriage, and the Mind of the Killer Spouse, Dr. Robi Ludwig and Matt Birkbeck, Atria Books, 2006.When the Husband is the Suspect, F.

Demonology & Deity of Christ (They actually go together - “I saw Satan fall”) There is unbridled arrogance and enormous egos when beings created by God are given incredible authority. Lucifer is the poster child of rebellion against God, but a few have followed his steps in their massive pride. Pride goes before the fall! Two kings and one common pattern: • Isaiah 14 - The king of Babylon • Ezekiel 28 - The king of Tyre (Isaiah 51:3; Ezekiel 31:8-9; 36:35) Demonology & The Deity of Christ: 1. Jesus REMOVED DEMONS - Mark 9:25-27 2. Jesus SILENCED DEMONS - Mark 1:21-28; Luke 4:38-41 3. Jesus TORMENTS DEMONS - Luke 8:26-39 4. Jesus SAW SATAN FALL - Luke 10:17-20 (not surprised by the disciples' power over the enemy) 5. Jesus DISMISSES SATAN - Matthew 4:9-10 (after third temptation); Luke 4:13 6. Jesus REVEALS SATANIC INFLUENCE (to Peter) - Matthew 16:21-23 7. Jesus DISARMED Satan on the cross - Colossians 2:13-15 8. Paul reveals demonic strategy - II Corinthians 2:10-11; 4:2-6; 11:1-15 9. Peter reveals demonic strategy - I Peter 5:8 10. James reveals victory in spiritual warfare - James 4:7 * Scripture reveals the application - What do we do knowing about the dangerous and deceptive enemy? - Ephesians 6:10-20

Universal detailed its Halloween Horror Nights Hollywood plans at Midsummer Scream, and the throughline is small IPs moving fast. Art the Clown returns in three controlled deployments: a Terror Tram takeover built around an original storybook and metal Christmas covers from Ice Nine Kills, a dedicated photo op, and a character encounter. Nikki from Curry Barker's Obsession joins as a character experience two months after the film premiered, the kind of deal that only closes that fast with an independent creator. And Slash scored the Killceañera house with an original song the villain lip-syncs, delivering exposition as a ballad so good fans are already asking for it on Spotify. The takeaway for operators is to build the event bones and hold the budget placeholder, so the hot IP can plug in late.Elsewhere at Midsummer Scream: Hollywood adds its first Unmasking the Horror daytime tour at $20 for two houses, Winchester Mystery House drops the linear haunt for an open festival format, and Six Flags Magic Mountain adds Final Destination plus a werewolf maze from a Knott's Scary Farm designer, cross-park design work the old corporate structure never allowed.Meanwhile, Six Flags opened 2027 pass sales one day after earnings, with regional Gold passes, Prestige passes, dining as bundles, and all-season Fast Lane pricing that runs $600 at Knott's and $2,000 at Cedar Point. Entry stays cheap because the strategy is repeat visitation. Finally, SeaWorld Orlando, Aquatica, and Discovery Cove return to a single president, 23-year company veteran Brad Gilmore, reversing the 2023 split.Listen to weekly BONUS episodes on our Patreon.

Jim Hill and Eric Hersey dig into the latest Universal news before tracing the surprisingly humble origins of Universal Studios Hollywood's Prop Plaza. They cover Art the Clown taking over the Terror Tram, new Halloween Horror Nights experiences, Fast & Furious coaster construction on both coasts, and Universal Hollywood's efforts to address neighborhood noise concerns. Then Jim tells the story of MCA executive Albert Dorskind, the struggling Universal commissary, and how a simple tourist lunch stop helped set the stage for the modern Studio Tour.

Why should we take Russian propaganda seriously? Why is it so deeply rooted in Russia's authoritarian vision of society and politics? What lessons can we learn from Russia's war against Ukraine about information warfare? And how should the West change its strategies — and do so quickly? *** Explaining Ukraine is a podcast by UkraineWorld, an English-language media outlet about Ukraine. Host: Volodymyr Yermolenko, a Ukrainian philosopher, chief editor of UkraineWorld, and president of PEN Ukraine. Guest: Thomas Kent, a leading expert on Russian propaganda, disinformation, and journalistic ethics. He is a former president of Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty and spent many years at the Associated Press. His latest book, published in August 2026, is called The Propaganda Manual of the Ukraine War: Information Warfare by Russia, Ukraine, and Western Nations — Lessons Learned for Future Conflicts. In this episode we will talk about this book. Link to the book: https://www.afpc.org/publications/books/the-propaganda-manual-of-the-ukraine-war-information-warfare-by-russia-ukraine-and-western-nations-lessons-learned-for-future-conflicts *** Listen on various platforms: https://li.sten.to/explaining-ukraine UkraineWorld: https://ukraineworld.org/en *** SUPPORT: You can support our work on https://www.patreon.com/c/ukraineworld Your help is crucial, as we rely heavily on crowdfunding.

In this episode of John Solomon Reports, host John Solomon uncovers two significant stories that shine a light on accountability and transparency in government. The first revelation comes from Solomon's role as chairman of the White House Government Transparency Task Force, where he discusses the declassification of documents showing that former Attorney General Jeff Sessions was placed under criminal investigation by his own team shortly after taking office. Solomon highlights the flimsy basis for this investigation, which stemmed from a letter and concerns raised by Democrats, revealing a troubling pattern of political maneuvering within the FBI during the Trump administration.The second major scoop involves the release of Anthony Fauci's text messages from his time at the NIH, which reveal his private concerns about the COVID vaccine's potential risks for pregnant women. Solomon emphasizes the stark contrast between Fauci's public statements and his private beliefs, raising critical questions about the transparency of public health messaging during the pandemic. The episode also features insights from Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill, who is investigating Fauci's actions, and Congressman Marlin Stutzman, who discusses the implications of license plate cameras and a bold proposal to reform foreign aid to Israel.Finally, Solomon celebrates the 250th birthday of America with the owners of the Monocle, a beloved Washington restaurant known for bridging partisan divides.

From the high-stakes South Carolina Senate primary election to shocking media narratives, we break down today's top stories!

If Mark really preserves Peter's eyewitness testimony, what does that mean for the other Gospels—and for skeptical claims that the New Testament is late, legendary, and contradictory? In this follow‑up episode, we build on the case from Part 1 and argue that Mark is not only rooted in Peter's preaching, but is also likely the earliest written Gospel that Matthew and Luke used as a framework. You'll hear why Mark's short, urgent, "rough" style points to an early source, how Matthew and Luke expand and smooth Mark's material, and what editorial patterns suggest about who was copying whom. We'll also explore Mark's heavy emphasis on suffering, persecution, and costly discipleship, and show why that matters when responding to prosperity teaching and "legend" objections. Finally, we'll connect all of this to practical evangelism: how understanding Mark as Peter's first‑hand case file can help you answer skeptics, strengthen your confidence in Scripture, and share the story of Jesus as real history rather than religious rumor.

On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show, the Woke Reich and certain influencers claim that Israel can't stop going to war but it's the U.S. who has been bombing Iran since the ceasefire, sidelining Israel. These Influencers are being paid to undermine President Trump and blame Israel for conflict with Iran. These influencers push the narrative that if only Israel made peace with the Palestinians, then there would be no more conflict. Who do these influencers think support terrorism? Why don't they criticize Qatar, who spend millions buying influence in America? Also, Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) seeks to eliminate the U.S. Senate and Electoral College to advance their agenda, though both require constitutional amendments. These institutions exist to protect smaller, less-populated states, ensuring they have a meaningful say in government so they would join the Union during independence. Similarly, the Electoral College ensures smaller states influence presidential elections, countering domination by a handful of large, populous Democrat metropolitan states and cities. Removing these safeguards would enable mob rule, open borders, non-citizen influence, and a centralized Marxist government. Later, Bruce Blakeman calls in to discuss his run for New York Governor. Under Gov Kathy Hochul New York ranks dead last in economic outlook, driving out high-net-worth individuals and businesses through anti-business policies, high taxes, and overregulation. Blakeman pledges to cut taxes and electric rates, welcome businesses, ensure safer neighborhoods, and build a vibrant economy. Afterward, Todd Blanche is a proven leader who effectively represented Donald Trump in the private sector and  who is serving as acting attorney general at the Department of Justice. Democrats oppose his nomination because they preferred Merrick Garland who protected Joe Biden by invoking privileges to block the release of his testimony audio or video, hired rogue prosecutor Jack Smith, and approved the Mar-A-Lago SWAT raid and other attacks on Trump's liberty and due process. Democrats would never accept any nominee chosen by Trump. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
