Today, we're joined by Savannah Bananas player RobertAnthony Cruz, known as Coach RAC, to share his journey to becoming a TikTok-viral baseball coach. RAC shares the details of signing with the Washington Nationals and how God redirected him after a sudden release. He shares his faith journey, from growing up in a Christian home to embracing the gospel's depth as his own. He also shares the sweet story of meeting his wife in middle school and offers tips on coaching kids to find identity in Christ, not performance. We talk about the impact the Savannah Bananas have had and why they're so special, and we also discuss the impact of his faith-filled content and why he believes glorifying God through baseball outweighs any social media criticism.

Dr Timoti Te Moke became a doctor at age 56, but it wasn't an easy road to get into medical school. Before he started at Middlemore Hospital, he endured a childhood filled with abuse, time in state care, in prison and eventually gangs. He detailed his journey in his new book, The Unlikely Doctor, and says he wrote it to shine a light on the barriers holding Kiwis back from reaching their potential. "There are a lot of people that could be where I am, but due to the barriers that society put in place, they are not able to do this. Essentially, what my book is looking at is the potential this country could have if we realised that these are the barriers we have in place."

Throughout his career, former Congressman Justin Amash has been a strong advocate for freedom of speech, writing that “The value of free speech comes from encountering views that are unorthodox, uncommon, or unaccepted…Free speech is a barren concept if people are limited to expressing views already widely held.” In this special live episode, filmed in front of 200+ high schoolers attending FIRE's Free Speech Forum at American University in Washington, D.C., Amash takes questions from the audience and discusses his upbringing, his political career, the state of American politics, and how the Constitution guided his work in Congress. Earlier this year, Congressman Amash joined FIRE's Advisory Council.

Note from Jeannine:I am so honored to introduce you guys to Steve Ellis, the sober living house manager that saved my life. Many of my stories are about Steve and the wisdom he shared with me in the darkest days of my active addiction and early sobriety. His insight and way of speaking to me was instrumental in my success in sobriety. Please let me know what you think!Episode Description:In this powerful episode, I sit down with Steve Ellis, a man whose story of survival, relapse, redemption, and resilience will stay with you long after you listen. Steve grew up bouncing between Chicago, Alabama, and San Diego. Initially able to escape a choatic home life through sports, most notably as a standout basketball star, a career ending injury in high school left him discouraged about his future, and by the age of 21, he was addicted to crack and living on the streets of downtown San Diego. He spent over a decade homeless, cycling in and out of prison, until he got sober at 32.For the next 12 years, Steve defied the odds: he became a successful business owner and a beacon of hope in his community. But addiction crept back in. A relapse that led to a years long fentanyl addiction cost him everything — his home, his business, his freedom. He ended up right back where he started: on the streets.Today, Steve is two years sober and deeply committed to living in truth, humility, and service. His journey is a raw and honest reflection on the realities of addiction, the painful cost of relapse, and the profound beauty of getting back up again. Wise, grounded, and full of insight, Steve has inspired thousands — and his story will inspire you too.DM me on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Message me on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Listen AD FREE & workout with me on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Connect with me on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email me chasingheroine@gmail.comSee you next week!

In this episode of the Love Stories podcast, I had the pleasure of welcoming Amber Romaniuk, an emotional eating, digestive, and hormone expert. Amber's journey from struggling with emotional eating to becoming a guiding light for others is both inspiring and enlightening. With over 12 years of experience, she helps high-achieving women build body confidence, heal self-sabotaging patterns with food, and achieve vibrant health through deep mindset and self-care work.Amber also emphasized the significance of self-care practices, such as meditation, movement, and journaling, in fostering a healthier relationship with food. She encouraged listeners to get curious about their triggers and to explore the underlying emotions that drive their eating habits. By doing so, we can begin to break free from the cycle of self-sabotage and cultivate a more compassionate relationship with ourselves.IN THIS EPISODE:- (09:31) The Role of Upbringing in Body Image Issues- (18:09) Breaking the Cycle of Self-Sabotage- (26:29) The Impact of Stress on Hormonal Balance- (32:07) Addressing Root Causes of Hormonal Imbalances- (39:29) Healing the Inner Child and Self-Love- (41:55) The Path to Body Freedom and Self-AcceptanceRESOURCESCheck out my How to Attract Devoted Masculine Men Masterclass HERE My FREE eBook The Magnetic WomanApp rec: BumbleFeminine Embodiment HERECONNECT WITH CHARLENE On Instagram @mscharlenebyars On YouTube @chosentrainingWork with me HERECONNECT WITH AMBEROn Instagram HEREHer Website HERE

Plastic is killing the planet — or so we've been told. In this episode, Scott Groves sits down with Dr. Chris DeArmitt — the scientist behind The Plastics Paradox — to dismantle myths we've been fed for decades. From the “floating island” that doesn't exist, to the lie that you're eating a credit card of plastic every week, Chris backs every claim with real data — 5,000 studies deep. This is the truth about bags, bottles, microplastics panic, and why billionaires, NGOs, and headlines keep feeding the fear. If you think you know the truth about plastic, this episode will challenge everything.Chapters: 00:00:00 - Welcome and Bold Kickoff00:00:56 - Accents, Upbringing, and Humor00:02:54 - Meet the Myth-Buster: Chris DeArmitt00:03:39 - Kicking Open the Plastic Controversy00:05:10 - How a Scientist Fell for Plastics00:06:14 - What Really Happens When Plastic Breaks Down00:11:09 - The Real Lifecycle Impact Nobody Tells You00:21:02 - Microplastics Panic: Fact vs Fiction00:24:41 - The Fake Floating Island Exposed00:33:02 - Why Plastic Waste Is a People Problem00:37:13 - The Hidden Materials in Your Home00:37:49 - Surprising Praise for the Plastic We Hate00:39:29 - Burying the Biggest Plastic Myths00:40:42 - Are Alternatives Worse for the Planet?00:45:58 - Microplastics: The Truth and the Hype00:58:54 - What's Actually Threatening Our Health?01:08:01 - Why Science and Evidence Matter01:10:20 - Final Thoughts and Real TakeawaysLinks and Resources:Phantom PlasticsFree Book — Shattering the Plastics IllusionConnect with Dr. Chris DeArmitt on LinkedIn------------This podcast is paid for and brought to you by.... by me, Scott Groves :-) Because I think these kind of long form conversations are valuable, I pay for 100% of the production of this show out of my pocket.

Monte Mader grew up in a Christian Nationalist family where indoctrination and abuse were ever-present. I became a fan of her powerful voice as she eviscerated the lies of Christian Dominionism, Christian Nationalism, and the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) using her knowledge of scripture and Christian ideologies. She has over a million followers on Instagram as a “former alt-right Christian nationalist,” sharing her artistic talent and complex views to dispel widely believed radical Republican doctrine. She brings this knowledge forward and finds ways to bridge communications from her upbringing within a controlling but also highly influential alt-right family from Wyoming. She now shares the deconstruction of her childhood and aspects of her healing journey in several venues, including a new memoir she's working on. Her experiences are also reflected in her music as a “Rocky Mountain rock artist” living in Nashville, Tennessee. She writes songs and performs with her band, The Big Sky. She is so talented and is an inspiration. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Nikki Tomlin is a travel creator, photographer, and content strategist known for her viral “girl that spins” videos filmed in breathtaking locations around the world. Originally from Rapid City, South Dakota.   Nikki's journey took her from a modest upbringing to studying photography, navigating life in New York City, and eventually launching her own travel and creative business after losing her corporate job during the pandemic. Since then, she's built a global audience through storytelling, solo adventures, and creative content filmed mostly on her iPhone. Now preparing for full-time nomadic travel, Nikki balances social media coaching, brand partnerships, and group trips in destinations like the Philippines and Bali, all while building a sustainable business that supports her spontaneous, adventure-filled lifestyle.

Today, we sit down with Christian content creator April Chapman to discuss her journey from the prosperity gospel to a biblically grounded faith, her path to healing after abortions, and how she navigates racial and political divides as a believer. April shares about her upbringing in New York City, her exposure to the prosperity gospel at a megachurch, and the transformative moment she encountered the true gospel. She opens up about the pain of her past abortions and how she confronted her sin and found healing through God's grace. We also explore her rejection of "racial reconciliation" narratives that elevate ethnic distinctions over gospel unity. How can Christians celebrate our God-given differences without falling into division or ethnic idolatry?

The Brumbies and Wallabies back Len Ikitau will attempt to draw on his years growing up in New Zealand when the Brumbies take on the Chiefs and into the future when the Wallabies meet their foes in All Blacks colours. Talking to Declan Byrne on 'The Saturday Sledge' Ikitau tells us about getting over his non selection pain for the World Cup, where this season ranks for the ACT Brumbies and why he's politely not asking James Slipper about the last Lions tour.

Conner catches up with surf legend, core lord, filmmaker, and all-around waterman Keith Malloy over a Cerveza on the 805 Beer Cold Beer Surf Club. From pig hunting in Paso Robles and an unlikely hang out with Post Malone, to being held up at gun point by pirates in Indonesia with Mark Healey, and producing some of the most respected films in surf culture today, Keith opens up about the chapters of his life that shaped him. Keith reminisces on his competitive heats against 3x World Champion Tom Curren, being towed into his first Pe'ahi wave by Big Wave magnate Laird Hamilton, and shares about the projects he's working on with YETI – Let Me Live, a portrait of big wave charger Tom Lowe, set to drop in June 2025, Astronaut in the Ocean with Shane Ackerman, to one in the works with Stephanie Gilmore. He talks about his many other classic films and projects like shooting with Taylor Steele for Loose Change, SIK JOY with the late Jack McCoy, and documenting and producing Life of Kai and witnessing Kai Lenny's jaw-dropping Peʻahi performance in real time. Keith teases a potential (and hopeful) film with Bobby Martinez as they muse over their shared roots, from the brothers' early surf days, to their mutual admiration for Jason Baffa's influence, their love of fishing, hunting and cooking, and how deep family bonds and brotherhood anchor everything. Keith reflects on his upbringing, his father's foundational wisdom, and his transition from pro surfer to filmmaker with Bimarian Films. The two touch on the state of the surf industry, past and present, environmental concerns like red tide, and the enduring power of surfing as a path to physical and mental wellness.

In this private call, very generously shared by the caller, I speak with a listener feeling stuck in his personal and professional life.

Last week I joined 8,000 Sarasota drivers in the last 4 weeks who got a speeding ticket from the new 24/7 School Zone Safety program traffic cameras, mine stamped 9 p.m. when only thing in the crosswalk might be a hungry raccoon. My wife graciously handed me the envelope. My response? “Good! I deserve it. Totally fair. I love justice! Praise God!” Ever felt justice was robotic—and unfair? Some people feel the same way when they meet our text today. Is God unfair? - Is grace unfair, the idea that no one gets a second chance unless God grants it? Is mercy supposed to be for everyone? Why does one heart melt while another hardens? Upbringing, IQ, sheer effort? What if mercy has nothing do with whether people are smart enough to ask, but a rescue for people who never would Paul says the real answer kills our human pride, and through that, also rescues us from its dangerous consequences. Paul expected this to sting. But Paul’s goal isn’t pain; it’s to shatter pride & replace it with a flood of humble gratitude. If you’ve ever wrestled with who believes and who doesn’t—if you’ve wondered how in the world perfect justice and radical mercy both come from the same throne of God, lean in.​

Topic : Help, I'm Stuck!Topic Detail: Hello, Stefan,My name is [x]. I'm 26 years old and the fourth of five children born to two abusive parents. I moved out over a year ago, and since then, I've been living on my own and listening to your show. Over the past year, I've been processing and grieving my childhood. Your show has been incredibly helpful in identifying the true extent of the abuse I endured, understanding how to apply philosophy to my life, and learning how to be a peaceful parent. The impact it has had on my life is immeasurable.Right now, I find myself doing little outside of going to work. On weekends, I rarely leave my house except to run errands, play basketball at the park, or occasionally hang out in person with my Xbox friends. My biggest struggle at the moment is a porn addiction. Most weekends, I give in to the urge, which completely drains my energy, leaving the next few days as a write-off. This has been a major contributor to my social anxiety and inhibition when talking to women. It has defined my entire adult life.I've mostly DFOO'd, but I haven't truly confronted either of my parents. I feel like I've extracted as much knowledge, wisdom, and insight as I can from my childhood—yet I still think about it every day. And I'm sick of it.A real sense of mortality is setting in. I'm 26, single, and have few good memories to look back on. I do not want to turn 27 and still be in the same place. Life has been passing me by, and I know there's so much more out there. I hope that by talking to you, I can identify the root of my dysfunction and learn to move forward in life with confidence. I thirst for feedback, guidance, and an ally to help dislodge me from this perpetual cycle of self-destruction.Thank you for your time and consideration.GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025

In this episode, I analyze the debate between Michel Foucault and Noam Chomsky on human nature, expressing frustrations about their unclear definitions. I discuss Foucault's controversial life and its irony alongside his philosophical influence, while connecting his ideas on power to contemporary ethical dilemmas and societal scrutiny. Engaging with callers, we explore the effects of upbringing on self-worth and the importance of confronting our pasts. I emphasize self-assertiveness and the need to reflect critically on the narratives that shape our lives, encouraging listeners to align their choices with personal values and societal realities.GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025
