Tonight's guest is Fred, calling in from Sweden. He's the researcher and writer behind the book Northern Lights: High Strangeness in Sweden. Fred walks us through a series of his experiences scattered across Sweden and Norway, a violent interaction with an invisible force on a bridge in Stockholm, a shadow figure leaning out from behind a tree no person could hide behind, a perfect circle of ground light in Märsta, and the haunting footsteps that circled a cabin in a Norwegian valley that scared Fred before dawn. He also shares stories of the odd little man who appeared during his youth, in the forest, along the roadside, and even in a shop, always looking at him, never speaking.More information on this episode on the podcast website:https://ufochroniclespodcast.com/ep-366-high-strangeness-in-sweden/Hidden Cults (Promo)It is a documentary-style podcast that digs deep into the world's most extreme, elusive, and explosive fringe groups.

Lee Hacksaw Hamilton shares his “Hacksaw History” highlighting his career from Long Island to Ohio University, upstate New York, Cleveland, Phoenix and San Diego. We discussed Lee's early days doing play-by-play in minor league hockey, minor league baseball, and as a TV journalist. Then it was on to Cleveland to broadcast big time WHL pro hockey, a competitor with the NHL at that time. Then on to Phoenix KTAR where he lit the Valley of Sun on fire. In the late 1980s, San Diego called and invited Lee to be the play-by-play voice of the San Diego Chargers and also to host a sports talk show on XTRA 690. That sports talk show was the very beginning of an innovative all sports talk radio station that featured many names including Jim Rome, Steve Hartman, Chet Forte, Coach John Kentera, Billy Ray Smith, Scott Kaplan, Philly Billy Werndl, Jim Laslavic, Pat Curran and many more. This episode was originally aired as part of the John Riley Project on July 20, 2022. The History of Sports Talk Radio Lee shared his Long Island roots and the start of his radio news/DJ career in his college days on a radio station in Appalachia. After a great run broadcasting pro hockey in Cleveland, he took his talents to the desert to announce Arizona State football and basketball. Hacksaw also hosted a sports talk show on KTAR in Phoenix shocking the locals with critical comments of ASU's football suspension, the Suns getting blown out in the first round of the 1981 NBA playoffs, and the ineptitude of Bowie Kuhn during the 1981 MLB strike. This was the start of the “Best 15 Minutes in Radio.” This was the start of “Putting Topics on the Table.” “React!” Lee was determined to grab his listeners by the throat and hold them for 4 hours of compelling sports talk radio. Hacksaw's reputation in Arizona led to a 1986 phone call from the Noble Broadcast Group in San Diego to be the San Diego Chargers play by play guy and start a sports talk show on the Mighty 690. At the time the station was broadcasting rock n roll and Wolfman Jack. Little did they know that things were going to radically change in the next few years. Lee was the only sports guy in the entire station, and he started with a blank slate. How in the hell was he going to pull this off? He started by creating a 9-hour NFL Sunday broadcast with a 2-hour Countdown to Kickoff pre-game show, the live game, and then a post-game show with caller participation. The Mighty 690 Sports Talk Radio Meanwhile, every afternoon drivetime Hacksaw hosted his talk radio show using many of his provocative techniques to drive listenership. Lee was a sensation bringing sports facts, stats, and opinions in the late 1980s. He was the internet before the internet was a thing. After a brief transition to sports and news talk, the station went 100% sports starting in 1989. The Mighty 690 was the 3rd radio station in America to go all sports, and the first on the west coast. 690 had a “blowtorch signal” that carried Lee's show from “Baja to the Canadian Rockies” As 690 went all sports, many new voices took the microphone to create a wide variety of opinions and styles on sports talk: Jim Rome came on board to start his Scrub Saturday show. He later got the night shift right after Hacksaw's show, working on developing his style, his smack, and his clones. Rome later went on to national fame, but did you know Hacksaw was first offered the national gig prior to Rome but he turned it down. Steve Hartman joins the station and with Lee's recommendation he was paired up with former Monday Night Football producer Chet Forte. Two loudmouth guys: one young, one old, one west coast, one east coast. It was perfect. Steve Mason and John Ireland took on the morning show and later saw their careers take them to new places. Scott Kaplan and Billy Ray Smith joined the station creating a strong show and a loyal listening audience of Great Friends. The Coach John Kentera joins the station sharing his wealth of knowledge of local high school sports, plus offering his commentary on the San Diego pro and collegiate sports teams. San Diego Chargers: I root for Herbert to Win, but Spanos to Lose As a long time voice of the San Diego Chargers play-by-play, and as an NFL junkie, Hacksaw was right at home broadcasting the Chargers every Sunday. We retrace some of the magical moments of the Chargers Super Bowl season including stories about Bobby Ross, Stan Humphries, Stan Brock, Tony Martin, Dennis Gibson, and the playoff run against the Dolphins in Steelers. We reminisce about the good vibes as both the team and the community both came together in a very special way. After the 1997 season The Mighty 690 lost its broadcast rights to the team, breaking promises made to the station and to Lee personally to stay on as the play-by-play guy. Hacksaw was very disappointed with the decision, but he bounced back and was the play-by-play guy for the Seattle Seahawks for 3 seasons. So, how does Hacksaw feel about the Chargers now? He says he wants the kid quarterback Justin Herbert to go 17-0 and the owner Dean Spanos to go 0-17. San Diego State Aztecs and the PAC-12 In the podcast episode we get into the new Snapdragon Stadium, Lee's disappointment that the Soccer City proposal did not win thus guaranteeing an NFL stadium option, and the possibilities of the Aztecs joining the PAC-12. Could this be the start of a new podcast platform for Lee Hacksaw Hamilton? “Agree or disagree?” “I want to talk sports with you!” #Hacksaw #LeeHamilton #Mighty690 #Chargers #sportsmedia #sportstalk #xtra690 #jimrome #chetforte #scottkaplan #billyraysmith #billwerndl #stevehartman #johnkentera #johnlynch Be sure to share this episode with a friend! ☆☆ STAY CONNECTED ☆☆ For more of Hacksaw's Headlines, The Best 15 Minutes, One Man's Opinion, and Hacksaw's Pro Football Notebook: http://www.leehacksawhamilton.com/ SUBSCRIBE on YouTube for more reactions, upcoming shows and more! ► https://www.youtube.com/c/leehacksawhamiltonsports FACEBOOK ➡ https://www.facebook.com/leehacksaw.hamilton.9 TWITTER ➡ https://twitter.com/hacksaw1090 TIKTOK ➡ https://www.tiktok.com/@leehacksawhamilton INSTAGRAM ➡ https://www.instagram.com/leehacksawhamiltonsports/ To get the latest news and information about sports, join Hacksaw's Insider's Group.

How do you hold onto hope while processing new losses after past ones? How do you reconcile the deep suffering you experience in life with the goodness of God?Ashley Opliger knows these questions well.

In her book, Ashley shares her story and offers compassionate guidance for finding healing and faith after loss.In this episode, Davey sits down with Ashley to talk about making sense of what feels like senseless suffering, learning to surrender our pain to God, and holding the tension between mercy and justice when we've been deeply hurt by others' actions.If you've ever faced a new grief after a profound past loss, this conversation will remind you that God continues to cradle you in hope—even in the midst of each new pain that comes your way.

Jamie Merchant, the author of Endgame, joins us to talk about the current chaos. Start with the spectacle and you miss the structure. We step past the daily outrage to map Trumpism as a regime built by a new insurgent fraction of capital—tech oligarchs, private equity, and venture investors—who are eager to smash norms, rewrite rules, and route public money through tariffs, defense contracts, and boutique industrial policy. Their rise squeezes out the old asset-management establishment, pushes it toward the Democrats, and locks the opposition into a politics of “normality” that cannot mobilize the base or contest power.We trace the media's role in this shift: a long slide from public-service reporting to algorithmic engagement that rewards emotional spikes and partisan framing. Biden's term tried to stabilize the system with CHIPS, infrastructure, and managed globalization, but even light-touch AI regulation, the SVB collapse, and worker pushback inside tech drove Valley elites rightward. Meanwhile, the stock market's euphoria masks a real economy straining under a profitability crisis. AI's massive data-center build may juice capex and energy demand, but unless it raises productivity broadly, we're sitting on a bubble that deepens monopoly dynamics without delivering shared growth.Zooming out, we argue we're living through a new state-capitalist era with less capacity: the government takes bigger stakes, centralizes power in the executive, and leans on tariffs as revenue, even as planning expertise and administrative muscle erode. The postwar managerial state—Keynesian levers, technocratic confidence, public legitimacy—is gone. That's why policy-first left populism keeps hitting a wall. Without a living, rooted class subject, electoral surges can't endure. We sketch a different route: rebuild working-class civil society—mutual aid, cultural institutions, education, and cross-sector networks that bridge immigrants, service workers, industrial remnants, and professionals. Strategy begins where the regime is weakest: in the social substrate it can't manage or monetize.Hear candid takes on the investor realignment behind Trumpism, the AI bubble loop, why Democrats are structurally stuck, and how to make organizing matter when the state can't—or won't—govern for the whole.

Has this year been a year of bad news? You know, despite the pretty cards and serene faces, Mary and Joseph faced a year of crazy. It might seem like the best news ever to hear you will be the parents of the Messiah, but Mary still had to go through 9 months of culturally shameful pregnancy because Joseph wasn't the father, followed by an 80 mile walk to Bethlehem at 9 months, and then no place to stay when her water broke.

Mon. Dec. 22nd/25 Join Me Tonight LIVE @6:10pm-8pm EST, as I welcome Paul Weatherhead. Paul Weatherhead is a native of the Calder Valley and was brought up in Hebden Bridge. After several years teaching in Greece, Moscow and Northern Siberia, he returned to the Valley in the late 1990s. He has a longstanding obsession with the weird history of the area, leading to the first edition of "Weird Calderdale" in 2003, which went on to become a local bestseller. His research into Alan Godfrey's alien encounter led to a deeper investigation into the phenomenon, which formed the basis of his Master of Arts dissertation on the philosophy of alien abduction. Paul's writing has been published in various magazines and journals, including Psychology Today, The Skeptic and Northern Life. He frequently writes on episodes of mass hysteria, delusions and weird history Tonight we're going to be discussing Paul's latest book called “Phantoms of Christmas Past Festive Ghost Hoaxes, Ghost Hunts and Ghost Panics” & much more!

Wednesday, 24 December 2025 Then Peter answered and said to Him, “Explain this parable to us.” Matthew 15:15 “And Peter, having answered, he said to Him, ‘You expound to us this parable'” (CG). In the previous verse, Jesus noted that if the blind-conductors are also blind, they will both fall into a pit. Having finished His words, Matthew notes, “And Peter, having answered, he said to Him.” Peter heard something that needed clarification from Jesus' words. Therefore, he continues, “You expound to us this parable.” Here is a new word, phrazó. It is found only here in the New Testament. It means to indicate by word or act. Thus, it is rightly defined as “expound,” which signifies to explain the meaning in a detailed manner. Peter goes back to Jesus' words of verse 15:11, not knowing the meaning of the parable – “Not the ‘entering into the mouth' it profanes the man, but the ‘proceeding from the mouth,' this, it profanes the man.” The problem with Peter's words is that Jesus wasn't speaking in a parable at that time. Hence, he misunderstood the intent of Jesus' words. For this, he will receive a rather stern rebuke, followed by a more detailed explanation of Jesus' intent. Life application: It is not always easy to know when something in the Bible is being spoken literally, metaphorically, in parable, or in some other way. It is also difficult to determine if what is being spoken of is one thing rather than another. A good example of this is found in Joshua – Then Joshua spoke to the Lord in the day when the Lord delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel: “Sun, stand still over Gibeon; And Moon, in the Valley of Aijalon.” 13 So the sun stood still, And the moon stopped, Till the people had revenge Upon their enemies. Is this not written in the Book of Jasher? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and did not hasten to go down for about a whole day. 14 And there has been no day like that, before it or after it, that the Lord heeded the voice of a man; for the Lord fought for Israel. Translations generally assume that Joshua's words indicate that the sun and moon literally stood still in the heavens. This is then bolstered by the words of verses 13 and 14. However, the words are poetic, having been included in the Book of Jasher. The way it properly reads and what is happening is as follows – “Then, he will speak, Joshua to Yehovah, in day gave Yehovah the Amorite to faces sons Israel, and he said to eyes Israel: ‘Sun, in Gibeon, you must be silent. And moon in depth Aijalon.' And is muted, the sun. And moon stood. Until he will avenge nation – his hatings. Not it written upon scroll the Upright (One)? And it stood, the sun, in the half the heavens and not it hastened to go, according to day complete. And not it was according to day, the it, to its faces and after it, to hearken, Yehovah, in voice man, for Yehovah being fought to Israel.” (CG) Notice the structure: V.12 – [Then, he will speak, Joshua to Yehovah, in day gave Yehovah the Amorite to faces sons Israel, and he said to eyes Israel]. V.13 Until he will avenge nation [Israel] – his hatings. V.15 - And not it was according to day, the it, to its faces and after it, [to hearken, Yehovah, in voice man, for Yehovah being fought to Israel]. The bracketing thoughts explain what the exceptional thing was. It wasn't that the sun and moon stood still in the skies. Rather, it was that the Lord listened to the voice of a man and fought for Israel. As you read the Bible, understand that what you are reading has been translated by man. A translator comes to the text with biases and presuppositions. If he is only a translator, he is also trying to make sense out of very difficult language. Therefore, it is natural to make assumptions based on a lack of study. Even scholars will start with presuppositions, reading a translation first and then working with that picture in their minds. Because of this, be careful to stop and contemplate what you are reading from other perspectives. You may find that what you thought was correct was not. In the end, you will get out of the word as much as you put in. O God, may we be willing to carefully consider all things Your word tells us. Help us not to get caught up in sensationalism or “going with the pack” mentality. May we first and foremost consider what You are telling us and why. Help us in this so that our time of study will be methodical and filled with proper insights concerning Your word. Amen.
How did one Viognier go from the brink of extinction to being planted around the world? Why is the Mistral one of the most miserable experiences for people, yet a saviour for Rhône vineyards? Why is working with bush vines so much harder than trellised vineyards? In this episode of the Unreserved Wine Talk podcast, I'm chatting with Matt Walls, author of the terrific new book The Smart Traveller's Wine Guide to the Rhone Valley. You can find the wines we discussed at https://www.nataliemaclean.com/winepicks. Giveaway Two of you are going to win a copy of Matt Walls' terrific new book, The Smart Traveller's Wine Guide to the Rhone Valley. To qualify, all you have to do is email me at natalie@nataliemaclean.com and let me know that you've posted a review of the podcast. I'll choose two people randomly from those who contact me. Good luck! Highlights What are the famous galets roulés of Châteauneuf du Pape and what is it like to experience them in person? How do the galets affect vineyard work and vine training? What is the Mistral wind and why is it both miserable for people and essential for vineyard health? Why is Hermitage Hill considered one of the clearest visual explanations of terroir anywhere in France? What does tasting Hermitage at the top of the hill reveal about the emotional connection to place and wine? How does whole bunch fermentation change the aroma, texture, and alcohol level of Syrah in the northern Rhône? How close did Viognier come to extinction after World War II, and who was responsible for saving it in Condrieu? What makes Viognier from Condrieu feel different than versions grown in warmer regions? How did Château Rayas redefine Châteauneuf-du-Pape? Why did the extreme heat of the 2022 vintage affect Rhône wines? Why is Tavel better understood as a pale red rather than a modern Rosé? Key Takeaways How did one Viognier go from the brink of extinction to being planted around the world? Very close. So there was about 6 or 7 hectares left... about the size of three football pitches. That's it. That was the only place in the world. I mean, that's where it comes from. In the 1960s and after the Second World War, a lot of the vineyards died. People couldn't fetch high prices for wine, so quantity was more important than quality. So people were just planting on the flat, basically where it was easy to farm instead of on the slopes of Condrieu, which are very difficult to grow on. So it got pretty much abandoned. It was down to one man whose name was Georges Vernay from Domaine Georges Vernay, which still exists today, still makes excellent wines. And he rallied the local winemakers. He believed in the grape. He knew how good it could be, and he encouraged people to replant, to rework the vineyards and, and saved the grape. You find it all around the world. And so if it wasn't for Georges back in the 60s, deciding, no, I want to save this variety, maybe we wouldn't have it at all, which would be terrible. Why is the Mistral one of the most miserable experiences for people, yet a saviour for Rhône vineyards? The mistral is a very strong north wind. It whistles down the valley. It can be extremely boisterous. It's cold north wind. if it's quite a hot day, it's never nice. It's always horrible. Even on a hot day. When it blows hard, it can be quite difficult to stand up in a vineyard. It's an amazing phenomenon. It's cold and it's really dry. So often when it does rain in the southern Rhône and in the northern Rhône, you risk getting vineyard diseases. But the mistral often it blows after it rains. So it will dry out the vineyards. It's like a natural disinfectant. it means that you can keep your grapes hanging on the vine for longer. So it is a huge benefit. Why is working with bush vines so much harder than trellised vineyards? You hear about these galets roulés, these rounded stones, but when you see them, just in the vineyards for as far as the eye can see, they're very striking to see and difficult to walk on. you can quite easily turn your ankle if you're not careful with what you're doing. So if you're in a vineyard of galets, what you'll see is these bush vines. That's the most common way of training vines in the southern Rhône, particularly Châteauneuf-du-Pape. You do see a bit of trellising, but with Grenache, you don't have to… they're naturally self-supporting. With Syrah, for example, you do have to train it on wires because it just grows like mad, and otherwise it would just be flopping around all over the floor. And you need to lift up the foliage in order to get it exposed to the sun and get the grapes off the ground. Grenache doesn't grow in such an exuberant fashion. It grows a little bit more slowly, and the trunks get a little bit thicker. But they're much harder to work as well. So, the thing about those bush vines is that you have to tend them in a 360 degree fashion rather than trellis vines, which you kind of have to work on both sides, but without kind of working around it 360 degrees. But the galets… they are troublesome and they are difficult to move and they take a lot of strength. So, yeah, I wouldn't like to work on them personally. That takes a lot of work.

As the holiday season sweeps through the Valley, host of The Valley Today, Janet Michael invites listeners to step into the warmth of community traditions in a special episode. This festive conversation, woven from interviews with local leaders, business owners, and community members, offers a delightful tapestry of Christmas customs, heartfelt memories, and a few friendly debates. The Great Tree Debate: Real or Artificial? The episode opens with a question that sparks instant nostalgia: Are you a real Christmas tree person or do you prefer artificial? Krista Shifflett of the Warren Coalition confesses her lifelong love for real trees, though practicality has recently nudged her toward artificial options. Similarly, Celeste Brooks shares that allergies in her family have made artificial trees a necessity, while others, like Les Sinclair of the Blue Ridge Area Food Bank, opt for convenience over tradition. The conversation reveals that, for many, the choice between real and artificial is shaped by family needs, safety, and even the presence of pets. Decking the Halls: Timing and Traditions Transitioning from tree types to timing, Janet asks her guests when they put up and take down their decorations. Some, like Robyn Miller of WATTS, stick to the classic post-Thanksgiving setup, while others, such as Victoria Armstrong Kidd of the Hideaway Cafe, admit to keeping their trees up well into February. The reasons vary—busy schedules, a love for the festive glow, or simply not wanting to let go of the season's magic. Gift-Giving Rituals: Wrapping, Bagging, and the Art of Shopping No holiday conversation is complete without discussing gifts. The guests reveal a spectrum of shopping habits, from early planners who finish by Thanksgiving to last-minute dashers picking up presents on Christmas Eve. The art of wrapping also comes under the spotlight, with some guests proudly identifying as "wrappers" who cherish the ritual, while others embrace the practicality of gift bags—especially when time is short or the recipient is a pet with a penchant for unwrapping. Christmas Eve vs. Christmas Morning: When to Open Gifts? Another beloved tradition—when to open gifts—elicits a variety of responses. Some families uphold the anticipation of Christmas morning, while others allow a sneak peek on Christmas Eve, often in the form of a single present or a special family ritual. These small differences highlight the unique ways each household creates its own holiday magic. A Patchwork of Community Spirit Throughout the episode, Janet's guests share more than just their traditions; they offer a glimpse into the values that bind the Valley community. Whether it's the joy of decorating multiple trees, the chaos of wrapping gifts at the last minute, or the comfort of gathering with loved ones, these stories remind us that the heart of the holidays lies in togetherness and shared memories. Conclusion: Celebrating What Matters Most As the conversation draws to a close, Janet encourages listeners to reflect on their own traditions and perhaps borrow a few new ideas from her guests. In a season often marked by hustle and bustle, this episode serves as a gentle reminder to savor the moments, embrace the quirks, and celebrate the connections that make the holidays truly special in the Valley.

Will Rasmussen and Craig Larsen talk about Christmas, its meaning, and a special program this evening on KSRA AM and FM.
In the volatile world of Silicon Valley, where the average CEO tenure is often less than five years and startups burn out as quickly as they rise, Ray Zinn stands as a monumental exception. For 37 years, Zinn served as the CEO of Micrel, the semiconductor company he founded in 1978, holding the record as the longest-serving CEO of a publicly traded company in the Valley. His tenure wasn't just about longevity; it was a masterclass in disciplined consistency. Under his leadership, Micrel achieved a staggering record of being profitable for 36 out of those 37 years, a feat almost unheard of in the tech industry.This video dives deep into the story of the man they call the "Iron Man" of the semiconductor industry. We explore how Zinn famously rejected the standard Venture Capital model, choosing instead to bootstrap Micrel using his own savings and bank loans to maintain total control over the company's culture and destiny. You will learn about his unique management philosophy, "Tough Things First," which prioritized discipline and employee well-being over short-term stock manipulation.Beyond the business metrics, we also uncover the incredible personal resilience of Ray Zinn. Later in his career, he went legally blind, yet continued to run the company effectively, relying on his vivid memory and the deep trust he had built with his team. From the early days of 1978 to the final acquisition by Microchip Technology in 2015, this is the definitive story of an outlier who proved that slow, steady, and disciplined leadership can outlast the hype of Silicon Valley.Support the show

A farm town kid with a tiny amp, a bandana from Stagecoach, and a promise to take one more swing at the dream—Tyler Rich sits down with us to unpack the road from Northern California to Nashville and what it costs to make something that truly feels like you. We trace the early wins and wipeouts: a record deal at nineteen, years of touring with homework due on a bus, an economics degree finished at warp speed, and the moment he turned down a safe, salaried future to chase a riskier one that wouldn't let him sleep.We go inside the writing rooms and the edges where craft gets sharpened. Mentors like Daryl Brown pushed his melodies and choices with sharp, priceless notes, while a DIY marketing blitz—thousands of cards handed out at shows and a brave DM hustle—built real fans one by one. That grit fueled a fast move to Nashville, where a culture of friendly competition and structured writing turned instinct into volume and voice. From there, the double album took shape: Poppy and Iris, a project anchored to state flowers and a life split between two homes. Cowboy Tears lifts like an anthem but breaks like a diary, a tribute to distance, devotion, and a bandana that never left his pocket. Redwood grows from wildfire science into a resilience song, proof that some things only get stronger after the burn.Independence was the next leap. Tyler walks through leaving a label, rebuilding his team with fresh eyes, and releasing twenty-plus songs that aim for the gut instead of the middle. The connection shows up in rooms—fans crying, him crying—especially when Dogs Don't Die helps people carry the love that remains. That song sparked a new lane: children's books that translate courage, grief, and selfhood for young readers. We preview Leave The Wolf Wild and Fred Under The Bed, and look ahead to a co-headline tour with a rock powerhouse designed to bridge country heart and rock muscle.If you love stories about craft, risk, and the long route to your real voice, this one's for you. Hit play, share it with a friend who needs courage today, and if it resonates, follow the show, leave a review, and tell us which song hit you hardest.

Country artist Conner Smith joins Brooke Taylor and co-host Pastor Mark Evans on The Upload for his first in-depth conversation since the tragic accident that made headlines this past summer. Known for hits like “I Hate Alabama,” and “Creek Will Rise,” Conner has quickly risen through the country music ranks—touring festivals, releasing his debut album, and building a loyal fanbase. But behind the momentum was a season of profound heartbreak. On the final day of CMA Fest, just one day after taking the Riverfront Stage, Conner was involved in a devastating accident that took a life. In this episode, he opens up with honesty and humility about the grief, trauma, and deep soul-searching that followed, and how the Lord became his anchor when the world around him collapsed. Conner shares how God met him in the shock and silence, the community that rallied around him, and the spiritual “crushing and stripping” that has reshaped him in ways he never expected. He talks about learning to trust God in the valley, surrendering the weight he can’t carry alone, and how the peace he has today is only because of the presence of Christ in the darkest hours. This is a powerful conversation about suffering, healing, and the God who restores what feels shattered beyond repair. Follow The Upload:
