Christ declares that from the days of John the Baptist until now, the Kingdom of Heaven has suffered violence, and the violent take it by force. This does not mean that men can wrestle the Kingdom from God's hands, but rather that true conversion always involves earnestness, spiritual struggle, and holy zeal. Salvation is not gained by sloth, but by the Spirit's quickening power which leads to urgent and effectual seeking of God.

A woman is brutally murdered in Midtown Manhattan. The incident is caught on video. What happens next? An outpouring of online celebration, racialized commentary, and digital glee over a real-life tragedy. Michael Smerconish speaks with Maya Sulkin, reporter for The Free Press, about her viral piece: “She Was Murdered in Midtown Manhattan. The Internet Celebrated It.” Sulkin shares what she believes this grotesque digital response says about the state of our culture, how social media distorts empathy, and what happens when real lives become content. Could this just be trolling, or is something far more broken in our collective conscience? Original Air Date 1 August, 2025.

The investigation into Innsmouth comes to a harrowing close as our team makes a desperate bid for escape. With damning photos in hand, their only hope lies in contacting Headquarters in Boston—but first, they'll need to find a phone. A risky encounter with a local splits the party, and what follows is a slow, agonizing unraveling of their chances. Each step forward demands a sacrifice, and every mistake tightens Innsmouth's grip. It's only a matter of time before the town swallows them whole. In this episode, we continue our playthrough of the scenario “Escape From Innsmouth” by Kevin A. Ross and others, and published by Chaosium. TRIGGER AND CONTENT WARNINGS: Language, Madness, Gore, Body Horror, Violence, Spirituality, Death.

This episode isn't theoretical. It's personal. Very personal. Something happened this week involving my daughter that I wouldn't wish on anyone. It shook me. And yet, I found myself confronted by the very thing I teach: emotional regulation, critical thinking, and behavioural intelligence, not in a classroom, but in real life, where it counts. Everyone expected rage. Violence. Retaliation. And I'll be honest, those thoughts were there. But instead of reacting, I chose to think. Not because I'm above anger, but because I'm committed to protecting the people I love with clarity, not chaos. In this episode, we get int into the mindset it took to navigate that fire. We'll explore the neuroscience of emotional control, the cost of binary thinking, and how to use Holmesian principles when your instincts are screaming for blood. This isn't about being clever. It's about being clear-headed when it matters most. And it's a reminder that thinking like Sherlock Holmes isn't just an intellectual exercise, it's a survival skill. Let's get into it.

Developments in the Middle East have come thick and fast this week. On Tuesday the IPC - a UN-backed monitor group - warned that the "worst-case scenario of famine" is unfolding in the Gaza Strip. Britain, meanwhile, warned that unless Israel met a number of conditions before the UN General Assembly convenes next month, it would join France in recognising a State of Palestine. Meanwhile, the Israeli occupied West Bank has received little international attention since the war in Gaza began. Attacks by Jewish settlers on Palestinians living there are on the rise - up by 13 percent over the past year, says the UN. We examine attacks in one village and a town.Also in the programme: Why is Greece detaining all migrants arriving from North Africa?

Josh doesn't hold back today as he tackles the brutal and sickening attack in Cincinnati, where a white man and woman were savagely beaten by a mob while a crowd of 100 mostly stood by—and only one person called 911. This isn't just a random act of violence, Josh says—it's the direct result of years of race-baiting and division fueled by the Left. He calls out the media's silence, the double standards in coverage, and the violent streak growing unchecked among far-left agitators.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

DEA and the Police in the Caribbean, Drugs, Violence. When most people imagine the Caribbean, they think of turquoise waters, white sand beaches, rum cocktails, and vibrant island music. The idea of violent crime, drugs, and federal law enforcement operations rarely comes to mind. But behind the postcard-perfect scenery, the Caribbean plays a major role in the global drug trade, and with it, comes a dangerous underworld of money, guns, and organized crime. In the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Retired DEA Supervisory Special Agent Jack McFarland knows this world all too well. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast interview, available for free on their website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and more podcast platforms. Jack spent over three decades in the trenches with the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). From his early days as a football coach and teacher to chasing drug traffickers through the Caribbean, his story reflects the global reach of America's drug war, and the brave men and women fighting it on the front lines. Now retired and a keynote speaker, Jack shares stories from his work with the DEA, including international interdiction operations, violent shootouts, and the complex partnership between the DEA and the police in the Caribbean. Look for supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . A Hidden Drug Highway in Paradise. DEA and the Police in the Caribbean, Drugs, Violence. “The Caribbean is beautiful, but it's also a major hub in the global drug trade,” Jack said during a recent appearance on the Law Enforcement Talk Podcast, available on Apple, Spotify, and major TV and podcast platforms. Much of the Caribbean lies along major smuggling routes between South America and the United States. Narcotics such as cocaine and heroin often move by sea, carried in everything from high-speed boats to drug submarines. Once in the Caribbean, the drugs are repackaged and rerouted, often with the help of armed criminal groups. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other podcast platforms. As a Supervisory Special Agent with the DEA's Caribbean Division, Jack helped lead operations that intercepted everything from cartel-run aircraft to high-seas smuggling vessels. One of the division's most notable seizures came on March 31, 2014, when the Caribbean Corridor Strike Force (CCSF) intercepted a Zodiac-type vessel off Dorado, Puerto Rico. On board? Two Venezuelan nationals and 1,774 kilograms of cocaine. “These arrests are a clear indication of the continued success of the Caribbean Corridor Strike Force,” said Rosa Emilia Rodríguez-Vélez, U.S. Attorney for the District of Puerto Rico. “This is just another example of the fine work our state and federal law enforcement partners accomplish every day.” When Interdiction Turns Violent. DEA and the Police in the Caribbean, Drugs, Violence. Not all operations end smoothly. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. On November 17, 2022, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agents engaged in a shootout while trying to intercept a suspicious vessel near Cabo Rojo, Puerto Rico. As agents approached, a gun battle broke out, leaving one DEA partner agent dead, others wounded, and two U.S. citizens arrested after over 1,300 kilograms of cocaine were recovered. It's a grim reminder that the fight against drug trafficking in the Caribbean isn't just about seizures, it's a deadly, high-stakes war against violent criminals. The Broader Impact of Crime in the Caribbean Many are shocked to learn that the Caribbean is one of the most violent regions in the Americas. Fueled by transnational gangs, economic struggles, and a deterioration of social structures, violent crime has exploded in several countries. You can listen to his stories and interview on our website for free in addition to platforms like Apple Podcasts and Spotify, and other major podcast platforms. In Haiti, where gangs have seized control of much of the capital, over 2,500 people were killed or injured in just the first quarter of 2024. This disturbing trend has sparked deep concern among Caribbean leaders. At a recent Caribbean Community (Caricom) summit, regional heads of state cited “levels of crime and violence... fueled in part by firearms and ammunition trafficking, transnational criminal networks, and a deterioration of social structures.” DEA and the Police in the Caribbean, Drugs, Violence. Jack puts it bluntly: “Where there are drugs, there are guns. And with guns, there's always violence.” The DEA's Mission in the Caribbean The Drug Enforcement Administration, established in 1973 during President Nixon's war on drugs, is the lead U.S. agency for combatting illegal narcotics. While most Americans associate DEA operations with big city drug busts or cartels, the agency plays a vital role in the Caribbean, partnering with local and international police forces to stop the flow of drugs into the U.S. The DEA Caribbean Division covers a wide area, including Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Barbados, Haiti, Jamaica, the Netherlands Antilles, Suriname, Trinidad and Tobago and others. Its mission is not just enforcement, but also coordination, training local police, gathering intelligence, and working alongside global partners. With units like the Caribbean Corridor Strike Force, the DEA focuses on interdiction, cutting off drug shipments before they reach U.S. soil.

DEA and the Police in the Caribbean, Drugs, Violence. Before he was chasing smugglers, Jack McFarland was a high school teacher and football coach. His path from the classroom to DEA headquarters in Anne Arundel County, Maryland, is a testament to how varied law enforcement careers can be. From his early work in Philadelphia to leading international operations out of Baltimore, Jack has lived a life filled with purpose, and danger. Now retired, he uses his experience to speak, consult, and train law enforcement agencies across the country and beyond. He's also active on various social media platforms, where he shares insights on crime, policing, and global drug trends. Modern-Day Pirates and Real-World Consequences While pirates might sound like a fantasy from the past, modern-day piracy is a real concern in the Caribbean. Smugglers and traffickers are often armed, mobile, and ruthless. Some target commercial vessels; others engage in violent turf wars on land. Be sure to follow the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. In fact, many violent crimes across the region are tied to gang warfare over drug territory, made more deadly by a steady influx of weapons. DEA and the Police in the Caribbean, Drugs, Violence. The DEA, working closely with the police in the Caribbean, continues to be a frontline force in stemming this tide. But as Jack McFarland reminds us, “This isn't a job for the faint of heart. It's dangerous, complicated, and essential.” Behind the island sunsets and steel drum music lies a battle that few tourists ever see. The DEA and the police in the Caribbean are locked in a constant struggle against violent drug traffickers who exploit the region's geography for global operations. But thanks to seasoned agents like Jack McFarland and dedicated Caribbean law enforcement officers, progress continues. Their courage and commitment protect not just U.S. borders, but the people of the Caribbean as well.

Another night, another mission, another less than ideal landing. Our aviatrixes were able to fly - but at what cost? The next morning they must survey the damage done to their reputations, relationships and the airfield's local wild life. Suffice to say, their decisions may "haunt" them.

Hour 1 opens with traffic alerts and a brutal dissection of the Cincinnati police chief's weak response to a viral assault video. Marc draws parallels to the Ferguson aftermath, blasting the social media age for turning perception into truth. Segment 2 shifts to a somber note with Ozzy Osbourne's passing and a sharp critique of Hollywood's decline into partisan activism. In Segment 3, Kim takes aim at the homelessness crisis, praising Trump's new “housing first” order while torching decades of liberal failure and wasted billions. Finally, Segment 4 covers the massive Russian earthquake that sparked tsunami fears across the Pacific, with Marc recalling the 2008 St. Louis quake and newsroom chaos.

The LAW has gotten a bad wrap lately. In the USA and West in general the law is based on biblical principles. The concept of lawlessness or the “lawless one” is Satan. He is the instigator of rebellion against God and God's law and authority. Today, I am going to show you that the law is good when used rightly but a weapon for evil when used in a manipulative, evil, untruthful and unbiblical way. It's time we get back to a biblical understanding and application of the Law in America and in Europe. LET'S GET STARTED.WE INVITE YOU TO JOIN OUR COMMUNITY AT: STEVENGAROFALO.COM2 THESSALONIANS SAYS: "7 For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work. Only he who now restrains it will do so until he is out of the way.8 And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will kill with the breath of his mouth and bring to nothing by the appearance of his coming. 9 The coming of the lawless one is by the activity of Satan with all power and false signs and wonders, 10 and with all wicked deception for those who are perishing, because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. 11 Therefore God sends them a strong delusion, so that they may believe what is false, 12 in order that all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.” (2 Thessalonians 2:7-12)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/reason-for-truth--2774396/support.

Today I'm talking about why violence is actually a great thing. Yeah, I said it violence is useful, necessary, and in many cases, the right response. You hear people, especially those with a lot of feminine energy saying stuff like “violence is never okay,” and that's just nonsense. In this episode, I break it down logically and rationally so you can understand exactly why that mindset is wrong. By the end of this, you'll see why violence has its place and why you should stop feeling bad about acknowledging that truth. Show Notes:   [01:36]#1 Violence is the bottom line of all human communication. [14:43]#2 Violence keeps everybody in line.  [22:50]#3 No one has a problem with violence when it's used for your protection or if you see a justified reason for using it.  [25:49]Recap Next Steps:

Jose Lugo grew up in one of Los Angeles' toughest neighborhoods, where violence, broken family, and survival shaped his early life. After joining the Crips in high school, Jose got caught up in a string of robberies and was sentenced to 5 years in prison. From the brutal reality of L.A. County Jail to life inside a California state prison as a gang member, Jose reveals what it was really like behind bars — and what it took to walk away from the streets. In this raw and emotional interview, he shares the painful process of self-forgiveness, leaving the gang life behind, and how he's fighting for redemption every single day. #GangLife #CripsStory #LifeAfterPrison #LACountyJail #CaliforniaPrison #PrisonRedemption #StreetToRedemption #lockedinpodcast Connect with Jose Lugo: https://therealjoselugo.com/ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ Get 50% off the Magic Mind offer here: https://www.magicmind.com/IANB50. #magicmind #mentalwealth #mentalperformance Presented by Tyson 2.0 & Wooooo Energy: https://tyson20.com/ https://woooooenergy.com/ Buy Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop Timestamps: 00:00:00 Jose Lugo's Struggles and Upbringing 00:05:44 Family Struggles and Foster Care Fears 00:11:38 Early School Challenges and Homeschooling 00:17:37 Understanding Intense Racial Dynamics 00:23:32 Life After High School: A Turning Point 00:30:07 Close Encounter at the Store 00:36:23 Intense Police Standoff Experience 00:42:40 Navigating Racial Dynamics in Jail 00:48:21 Navigating Early Gang Dynamics in County Jail 00:54:46 Surviving a Brutal Attack: A Raw Account 01:01:01 Finding Inner Strength and Support 01:06:59 Realizations on Gang Life and Change 01:13:01 Overcoming Anxiety and Announcing Non-Activity 01:18:49 Life Under Threat: Surviving Gang Politics 01:25:15 Embracing a New Life Away from Violence 01:31:33 Overcoming Desperation and Finding Faith 01:38:05 Finding Clarity Amidst the Noise Powered by: Just Media House : https://www.justmediahouse.com/ Creative direction, design, assets, support by FWRD: https://www.fwrd.co Learn more about your ad choices.

Adam Kirsch, poet, critic and editor at the Wall Street Journal, discusses his widely debated book, On Settler Colonialism: Ideology, Violence and Justice. The settler-colonialism prism, especially in the wake of October 7, is a textbook example of the use and abuse of academic theories for political ends – how and why has it come to be? Kirsch offers an historical genealogy as well as a contemporary analysis. The episode is sponsored by the Sady and Ludwig Kahn Chair in Jewish History at UCLA and co-hosted by Prof David N. Myers.

A Note from James:Ryan Holiday is one of the few writers I consider a peer—not just because of the work he's done, but because of the choices he's made along the way. We've both published a lot of books. We've both dealt with audiences, platforms, and the weight of having a “point of view” in a world that increasingly wants you to pick a side. This episode wasn't meant to be a debate or an interview. It was just two people trying to make sense of the tension between creativity and truth, honesty and influence, and why sometimes the best thing you can say is nothing at all.Episode Description:In this candid and far-ranging conversation, James Altucher sits down with bestselling author Ryan Holiday to talk about the changing nature of creativity, writing, podcasting, and personal ethics in a polarized media landscape.They discuss the illusion of having to weigh in on every issue, the danger of algorithmic thinking, and how to stay true to your voice without becoming a prisoner to your audience. Whether you're a writer, a creator, or just trying to think more clearly in chaotic times, this episode offers real insight into the forces shaping our thinking—and how to resist them.What You'll Learn:Why sharing too early can kill creative momentumHow social media shifted from expression to algorithm worshipWhy long-form podcasts might be bad for your brainHow writing differs from other art forms in its tension and permanenceThe tradeoffs between artistic freedom, platform growth, and audience expectationsTimestamped Chapters:[00:00] Writing Without Talking About It[01:00] Why Book Ideas Need Time in the Dark[02:00] Creative Compulsion vs. Discipline[03:00] Stand-Up, Dopamine, and Daily Feedback[05:00] Point of View in a Binary World[06:00] Silence, Ethics, and Speaking Up[07:00] Noise as a Form of Violence[09:00] Political vs. Philosophical Disagreements[10:00] Social Media's Shift to Opinion Farming[11:00] The Algorithm as Audience Puppet Master[12:00] When the Audience Has You[13:00] Podcasting's Algorithm Problem[14:00] Are Podcasts Dangerous?[16:00] Podcasting vs. Books: Tension and Craft[18:00] The Rise of the Longform Grifter[20:00] RFK Jr., Bad Ideas, and No Fact Checks[22:00] Why Audiobooks Outperform Podcasts[23:00] Can the Medium Save Us?[25:00] When Podcasts Work (And When They Don't)[27:00] Music and the Emotional Power of Simplicity[29:00] Songs vs. Culture War Commentary[30:00] Great Lyrics, Great Feelings[32:00] Bono, Stoicism, and Making You Feel Seen[34:00] The Parasocial Magic of Fame[35:00] Acting, Politics, and Emotional Truth[37:00] Writing as the Hardest Artform[39:00] Why Great Writing Still MattersAdditional Resources:Ryan Holiday's website: ryanholiday.netThe Daily Stoic by Ryan Holiday: AmazonJames Altucher on Twitter: @jaltucherRyan Holiday's books on Amazon: Author PageOlivia Rodrigo – “Drivers License” (YouTube): Watch hereLed Zeppelin lyrics and discography: ledzeppelin.comU2 – “Sunday Bloody Sunday”: YouTubeSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
