James 1:22-27 Speaker: Natalie Worsfold The church scatters to be Christ's ambassadors all week; the gathered church is the launch pad, not the landing strip. Paul sweeps every task - emails, nappies, spreadsheets - under the banner “whatever you do, do it in the name of the Lord Jesus.” James warns that hearing without doing calcifies faith into self-deception. The Great Commission's Greek literally reads “as you are going, make disciples,” insisting that mission is laced into the fabric of Monday-to-Saturday life.

In this episode, Jerry addresses a question he received multiple times in one week from chiropractors: Why are there so many website visitors and so few new patients? He breaks down this common concern and explains why these numbers often don't align in the way chiropractors expect. The episode offers perspective, highlights common misconceptions, and gives practical advice for improving website conversion. The Misunderstanding: Expectations vs Reality Many chiropractors expect a high percentage of website visitors to become new patients. In reality, this is not how online marketing works—especially with cold traffic. Chiropractors who believe they should convert 50% or more of website visitors into patients are setting themselves up for disappointment. Even a 6% conversion rate on cold website traffic is considered very good. Jerry explains that in his experience with info products and affiliate marketing, getting a 3% conversion rate was difficult. A 6% conversion would have been life-changing. Chiropractors need to calibrate their expectations and understand what's normal. Cold Traffic vs Warm Leads One of the biggest issues is confusing cold traffic with warm leads. Cold traffic includes people who: Find your site through Google or ads Have no prior relationship with you Haven't been referred and don't trust you yet These people convert at a very low rate. In contrast, warm leads are: Referred by friends or family Already familiar with you through social media or community presence Former patients or those who've interacted with your brand Warm leads should convert at a much higher rate. If you're only converting a small percentage of these, something is seriously wrong. Website Traffic Doesn't Equal Potential Patients Looking at gross visitor numbers assumes every visitor is a potential new patient, which is simply not true. Website visitors may include: Bots or spam traffic Competitors Existing patients checking hours or contact info People outside your service area Accidental clicks Unless you're running a tightly controlled ad campaign with a direct funnel, gross website numbers are a poor indicator of performance. Conversion Isn't Always Linear Unless your practice relies 100% on online scheduling, you can't assume that every new patient came through the website. People may call, text, message you on social media, or walk in. If your site visitors and new patient numbers aren't lining up, it could be because they're taking other paths into your practice. Trying to compare total website visits with total new patients is misleading because: Not every visitor is a qualified lead Not every new patient visits the website before booking A Volume Reality Check Jerry gives a basic example of how conversion typically plays out: 500 website visitors 3% click on the “schedule now” button = 15 people 50% of those actually schedule = 7 to 8 people 75% of scheduled appointments show up = about 5 to 6 new patients This is a realistic scenario and shouldn't be considered a failure. In fact, it's fairly normal. Google Business Profile (GBP) Can Be Even More Misleading Many chiropractors see huge views on their GBP listings—1,800 or more in a month—but still get only a handful of new patients. That gap can be discouraging, but again, it's common. The takeaway isn't that you should ignore these numbers but that you need to understand what they really mean. Visibility without conversion isn't useful unless your site and profile are compelling enough to get people to take action. How to Improve Website Conversion Jerry offers several practical ways to improve your chiropractic website's performance: 1. Simplify and organize your site. Avoid clutter. Too many chiropractic sites overwhelm visitors with too much information and no clear direction. Think of your website like a path through the woods—give people obvious cues about where to go next. 2. Make your content easy on the eyes. Presentation matters. Use formatting that's readable, clean, and skimmable. Don't dump a wall of text on your visitors. 3. Use patient-centered language. Skip the jargon. Don't talk about “optimizing health potential.” Focus on problems and solutions your ideal patients care about. 4. Add trust signals. Include real photos, staff bios, patient reviews, video introductions, and even relevant social media content. Authenticity builds trust. 5. Make scheduling easy. The best options are texting and online scheduling. Phone calls are okay. Email is the worst—slow, unreliable, and frustrating for both sides. Final Thought Unrealistic expectations are one of the biggest killers of progress. Chiropractors often get discouraged because they're comparing raw numbers without understanding what those numbers mean. Not all traffic is equal, not all visitors are prospects, and not all new patients will come through the same channel. Focus on what you can control—clear messaging, simplified navigation, strong calls to action, and easy ways to schedule.   Want Help Growing Your Practice?

In the Cult Italian Movie category THE VISITOR (1979) stands out for many reasons. It is made up of equal parts science fiction, thriller and religious high strangeness shot through with touches of CARRIE and CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND. For years it was considered one of the least comprehensible movies ever made but with the restoration of the full running time in 2010 it is now only mildly incomprehensible. Indeed, with enough squinting and reading between the lines it is almost possible to find a narrative thread that only occasionally feels absurd. Ridiculous to the point of silliness THE VISITOR defies rational concepts and logical progression of story. Let some other movie have police investigations that go somewhere or examples of simple cause and effect in human reactions to inexplicable events. This film scoffs at such needless exercises. And don't get me started on the exploding basketball that everyone ignores!   Troy Guinn, Bob Sargent and I (Rod Barnett) are the three intrepid film nuts that stutter-step their way through this Euro-madness. We wrestle this monster to the ground, fight off seagull attacks, ponder the eternal battle between good and evil and marvel at the cast of Hollywood stars the producer conned into being in this thing. What other movie of this type can boast John Huston, Franco Nero (playing a blonde, blue-eyed Jesus), Glenn Ford, Mel Ferrer, Shelly Winters (playing Mary Poppins' cousin Mary Slappington), Lance Henricksen and an out-of-his-depth Sam Peckinpah? Is this the most bizarre film ever shot in Atlanta? Was the city's mayor bribed to indulge the film's production? How many times will we reference A Flock of Seagulls? Is the amazing prop that Troy dubs ‘Switch-Beak' silly or brilliant? I cannot promise answers but we will at least pose the questions. Lots and lots of questions.   If you have anything to say about THE VISITOR or any other film that we've covered thebloodypit@gmail.com is the place to send them. We thank you for listening and we'll be back soon. 

Yesterday, a King County Judge ordered the city of Seattle to come up with a plan to end “nudity as constituted” at the park. Denny Blaine has been the city’s most well known nude beach for decades – and is a beloved LGBTQ+ community gathering space. This order follows a series of attempts by neighbors of the park to end nudity at Denny Blaine. And it’s a move supporters of the nude beach say would be a “sanitization of queer spaces” in an increasingly gentrified city. Guests: Seattle Times City Hall reporter David Kroman Related stories: Judge orders an end to nudity at Seattle’s Denny Blaine Park, for now - Seattle Times Community members give Denny Blaine Park play area proposal a dressing down - KUOW ‘I share your disgust.’ Texts show Seattle Mayor Harrell, rich neighbor discussing Denny Blaine - KUOW Thank you to the supporters of KUOW, you help make this show possible!

In this episode, ACTA President Michael Poliakoff discusses solutions to our nation's civic education crisis with distinguished jurist Douglas Ginsburg and his wife, Dorothy “Deecy” Gray. Judge Ginsburg previously served as chief judge of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit and is currently a professor at George Mason University's (GMU) Antonin Scalia Law School. A former member of the GMU Board of Visitors, Deecy Gray is a strong advocate for civic education. Together, they created Civics Fundamentals, a free online civics course for those studying to take the U.S. Citizenship Test and for the many students who have never been exposed to these basic, foundational lessons.

In 1903, the quiet coal town of Van Meter, Iowa was shaken by a terrifying series of sightings that would become one of the strangest cryptid encounters in American folklore. It started with a beam of light — not from the sky, but from a glowing horn attached to a massive, winged creature. Then came the sulfuric stench, the shrieks in the night, and the bullets that didn't work. For five nights, the townspeople watched in fear as a mysterious beast (or two?) soared through the skies, undeterred by shotgun blasts and town patrols. This is the legend of the Van Meter Visitor, a creature described as part-gargoyle, part-dragon, part-unicorn, and 100% nightmare fuel that the entire town tried — and failed — to take down. Plus, we'll cover modern-day sightings, a plaster footprint, psychological and paranormal theories, and a festival held each year to commemorate this mysterious visitor. Was it a time-traveling pterodactyl, an alien reconnaissance scout, or something ancient released from the mine? One thing's for sure: whatever it was, it definitely wasn't just a bat. from the mine?

In this episode of the Anglotopia podcast, host Jonathan Thomas speaks with Sophie Reynolds, Head of Collections, Interpretation & Engagement at Jane Austen's house in Chawton, Hampshire, about the enduring legacy of Jane Austen as a literary figure. 2025 is the 250th anniversary of her birth, so there are celebrations at Chawton and all over the world to celebrate this literary great. They discuss Austen's impact on literature, her proto-feminist perspective, and the evolution of her house museum in Hampshire. Sophie shares insights into her journey to working at the house, the immersive experiences created for visitors, and the significance of Austen's writing in contemporary culture. The conversation highlights the importance of preserving literary history and the relevance of Austen's work to modern readers.

Jane Austen's house is a modest but significant site in literary history. Austen's writing was influenced by her experiences and the society she lived in. The house has been transformed into an immersive experience for visitors. Austen's novels challenge social conventions and advocate for female agency. Her characters are realistic and relatable, transcending time and culture. Austen's writing style includes free and direct speech, influencing modern literature. The museum hosts various events to celebrate Austen's legacy. Visitors from around the world come to experience Jane Austen's house. Sophie emphasizes the importance of making literature accessible to all. Sound Bites On Jane Austen's modest writing conditions: "So many writers, you know, think of Dickens, his desk is very large and imposing and has a leather top and he had a lovely comfy chair and he had his own room that he could shut the door... Jane Austen didn't have that. She had this tiny, tiny, funny little table and it's barely big enough for a sheet of paper." On making the house feel lived-in: "We wanted to make the house feel populated... we have recordings of actresses speaking from Jane Austen's letters or from her novels. So there's a kind of little background, little hubbub. It's not intrusive, but it's just the sense that the house is occupied." On Austen as a proto-feminist: "She wrote realistic female characters... She doesn't give her male characters particular... they're not as three-dimensional as our female characters. They don't have thoughts and as much to say in the way that you sort of might expect." On visitor reactions to the writing table: "We get many visitors who burst into tears over the writing table because not only is it seeing where this extraordinary writer who they admire so much worked but it's such a tiny table. It's so modest." On Austen's real personality: "People seem to sort of have this idea of her as a very gentle, romantic soul in a bonnet and a long dress... And actually she was a very spiky person... she wrote some extraordinary letters to her sister where she is very rude about their neighbors and their friends and their family." On the challenge of literary house museums: "Something that's really difficult to do and that most museums don't do is set out to really showcase the creative life of that person... most museums... show the domestic life... the pots and pans, the cups and saucers, and maybe the clothes." On Austen's teenage writings: "They are so not what you would expect Jane Austen to be writing. They are really wild... There's a character who she kidnaps her children, they eat her fingers and they're all on a raft at sea." On the pilgrimage aspect: "For a lot of people, visiting Jane Austen's house is almost like a kind of pilgrimage. People... just love Jane Austen so much and it's an incredibly important... They want to have a very moving experience. They want to sense something about Jane Austen's presence there." On her literary innovations: "She wrote realistic novels in a time when that really wasn't the norm... After Jane Austen, that does become much more what the English novel is doing... She wrote really brilliant, realistic dialogue." On Austen's enduring cultural impact: "Once you start to sort of look for it and you get your eye in, she is in sort of every aspect of our culture... the first line of Pride and Prejudice... has been turned into every single imaginable universal truth that you could imagine on coffee mugs and on t-shirts."

Reporter Eithne Dodd interviews visitors and businesses in Westport, Co. Mayo on their views on tourism in Ireland.

Starting off our post July 4th weekend with Angela and the University of PA changing course on transgender issue. Plus new tariffs, most stolen cars, robots taxis, troubling social media trend and more with Olivia in the second hour.  

A special In Wheel Time replay - Ever wandered through a museum where cars aren't just machines, but masterpieces? Mary Agrusa takes us inside the Savoy Auto Museum in Cartersville, Georgia, where vehicles are displayed with the reverence typically reserved for fine art. "We consider this really more an art museum dedicated to the automobile," Mary explains, and her passion for automotive history shines through as she guides us through exhibits that tell stories beyond horsepower and torque figures. Each vehicle comes with a reader board that doesn't just list specifications but delves into fascinating backstories—why a particular model succeeded or failed, its historical significance, or quirky facts about its design. Visitors can walk 360 degrees around most cars, appreciating them from every angle under specially designed lighting that showcases their sculptural qualities. From an untouched 1925 Model T about to celebrate its 100th birthday to the elegant lineup of Studebakers charting the company's evolution, the museum offers something for casual visitors and dedicated enthusiasts alike.The Savoy isn't just preserving automotive history; it's inspiring the next generation. After their 1959 Plymouth Savoy named "Beatrice" participated in the Great Race (before unfortunately dropping two cylinders in West Virginia's mountains), local schools were inspired to build their own race cars for future competitions. This hands-on approach to automotive education perfectly complements the museum's mission to make car culture accessible and engaging for everyone.Switching from classic to contemporary, Don Armstrong takes us behind the wheel of the 2025 Lincoln Nautilus, and his enthusiasm is immediate. With its door-to-door digital display spanning the entire dashboard, this midsize SUV redefines interior luxury. Assembled in Hangzhou, China, the Nautilus combines elegant exterior styling with a smooth turbocharged powertrain that achieves impressive fuel economy. As Don puts it, "It gets an A-plus for attractiveness," positioning it as a standout option in a competitive segment that includes the Mercedes-Benz GLC and Genesis GV70.Whether yoBe sure to subscribe for more In Wheel Time Car Talk!The Lupe' Tortilla RestaurantsLupe Tortilla in Katy, Texas Gulf Coast Auto ShieldPaint protection, tint, and more!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

Some visitors can be so shocked by the reality of Paris compared to their expectations that they can experience psychiatric breakdowns or symptoms such as hallucinations, depersonalization, anxiety, dizziness and nausea. This is known as the Paris Syndrome. Romance, sophistication, croissants and sipping fine wine with the Eiffel Tower in the background spring to mind when thinking of a visit to Paris. With such a romanticized notion of the French capital, it's no surprise that this remains one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world, with 33 million expected in 2022, according to Le Monde. But it seems that the reality of Paris is more than what some visitors' stomachs can handle. Why do some visitors have such unrealistic expectations of Paris? How do you actually explain the physical symptoms? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions !

00:00:00 – Solo Show & Velvet Sundown Hoax Host flies solo post–4th of July, opens phone lines, and revisits the bizarre story of the AI-generated fake band "Velvet Sundown" that duped listeners and even tricked Rolling Stone.

Fake AI trailers and remakes of classics are critiqued. 00:30:00 – Kim Jong Un's Daughter & Hollywood Reboots North Korea is reportedly grooming Kim Jong Un's daughter as a successor.

No More Waiting for Disclosure—Mitch Randall's Vision for Citizen-Science Driven UAP Detection In this episode of Visitors, Kelly talks with Acendant AI's Mitch Randall, a renowned scientist and radar technology expert, about his ambitious project, Sky Watch. Mitch shares how he plans to empower citizen scientists to detect and study unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) using a $500 radar detection device.  They explore why accurate and independently verified data is crucial to understanding UFO sightings, what it will take to bring affordable detection tools to the public, and how groups like the Scientific Coalition for UAP Studies and the Galileo Project are advancing credible research. Mitch also discusses the role of the National UFO Reporting Center, the challenges of fundraising, and the fascinating potential for this revolutionary new approach to disclosure.

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! The Graestone Manor Bed and Breakfast is a beautifully preserved Victorian mansion along the Erie Canal in Royalton, New York. Nestled in the quiet town of Gasport, this manor is a gem on the Niagara Wine Trail. Silas Newcomb, settled the property in 1833, planting apple and pear trees that still bear fruit today. Over the decades, the estate changed hands—from Silas's son Albert to neighbors Horace and Harriet Chapin and then to Curtis Root in 1865. Root, a racehorse enthusiast, left a lasting legacy with his racetrack and the famed racehorse Hamiltonian. But beneath its historical facade, Graestone Manor harbors a world of the supernatural. Visitors have reported the sound of heated arguments, the echo of ghostly horse hooves, and the chilling sight of a woman's apparition at the window. Whispers of a mysterious vortex in the basement and shadowy figures wandering the halls add to the eerie atmosphere. And what is it like to be a psychic medium living in this historic manor? And why are the former owners' spirits excited about Heather and her husband living in the home?

Welcome back to the True Hauntings Podcast — where the shadows speak, the walls remember, and the spirits never rest.In this episode we take you deep into the dark heart of one of Western Australia's most haunted and historic buildings — the Fremantle Arts Centre. But before it was a hub of creativity and culture… it was something far more sinister.Originally built in the 1860s as the Fremantle Lunatic Asylum, this imposing Gothic limestone structure holds a past soaked in sorrow, tragedy, and — many say — the paranormal. Over the decades, it has served as a mental hospital, a women's home, a naval base, and now an arts venue. But some believe the spirits of those who suffered here never left…Visitors and staff alike have reported disembodied screams, phantom footsteps echoing through empty halls, and sudden icy chills even on the hottest summer days. One of the most frequently seen apparitions is that of a woman in white, believed to be a former patient who died in anguish. Others claim to have seen the figure of a sad-eyed man staring from the upper windows — long after the building should be empty.So what secrets are still locked behind those towering stone walls? Is it residual energy from a tortured past... or are the ghosts of the Fremantle Arts Centre still trying to make their presence known?Let's explore the evidence, the eyewitness accounts, and the haunted history of this chilling location.Is the Fremantle Arts Centre truly haunted — or is it just the building's dark legacy playing tricks on our minds?Stay with us… if you dare.

Becky shares her personal story—one that begins in childhood and weaves through a series of bizarre encounters, missing time, and high strangeness that finally caught up to her on Halloween night. From lights in the sky to possible abductions, this quiet corner of the Pacific Northwest holds secrets that refuse to stay buried.
