Bible Reading: Luke 12:13-21On the one-hundredth birthday of her town, Evie watched as the mayor unlocked a time capsule on the evening news that had been created and stored a hundred years before. He pulled several papers and mementos out of it and held them up to the camera."Can I make a time capsule for our family?" Evie asked when it was over. "I could put family treasures in it!""Sure," said Mom. "That would be fun."Evie found a box and placed some coins and a dollar bill from her desk drawer inside it. Then she packed in a DVD, a sweatshirt, and a storybook. Next she added an old teddy bear, swimming goggles, a beaded necklace, and a picture she had drawn. "Finding things for this box is fun, and there's still room for more," Evie told her mom. "When people in the future see this stuff, they'll get an idea of what we were like.""I think future family members will find the things you have in there interesting," said Mom. "But if you want to make a statement about our lives, I think you're missing the most important thing of all.""A family photo!" said Evie's little brother, Walden. "So they can see what we look like.""What about a newspaper?" suggested Evie. "That would tell them a lot about the things going on around us.""Or we could write them a letter!" said Walden."Those are all good things to add," said Mom. "But I'm thinking about something that makes life important and worth living, even without any of the other things in the box." "I know!" said Evie after a moment. "A Bible! And maybe a church bulletin too.""And we can tell them about Jesus in the letter we write to them!" said Walden.Mom nodded. "Those are both good ways to show future generations what's really important to us. Any physical items we put in our time capsule will be old and worn by the time our descendants open it. But the hope we have in Jesus, who saved us from sin and gave us eternal life with Him, is treasure that will last forever. Let's add some items to the box that point to the heavenly treasure we value most."–Nance E. Keyes How About You?What do you treasure the most? Money? Clothes? Toys? Good grades? Those are good things God gave you to enjoy, but they don't last forever or bring meaning to your life. The only treasure that lasts is the gift of eternal life with Jesus. Store your treasure in heaven by trusting Him as your Savior and then sharing His love with others.

Since publishing his debut essay collection—Video Night in Kathmandu, featuring far-flung reportage from 10 Asian countries—in 1988, the prolific travel writer Pico Iyer has gone on to write more than a dozen books exploring themes ranging from displacement and identity to globalization and technology, as well as contribute to publications such as The New York Times, Time, and Condé Nast Traveler. Over the years, Iyer's travels have taken him to some of the world's most remote destinations—North Korea, Bhutan, and Iceland, to name a few—but it's his hundred-plus visits to a Benedictine hermitage in Big Sur, California, that form the heart of his latest book, Aflame: Learning From Silence. Connecting with his inner stillness during these various sojourns in solitude has left him wholly transformed, opening him up to discover the thrumming, ineffable joy of being truly awake to the world and wonderfully alive. On this episode of Time Sensitive, Iyer explores the purpose and joy of travel, and shares deeply moving reflections about what he finds most essential in life.Special thanks to our Season 11 presenting sponsor, L'École, School of Jewelry Arts.Show notes:Pico Iyer[4:25] “Aflame”[4:25] “Autumn Light”[4:25] Philip Larkin[4:25] “The Art of Poetry No. 30”[7:18] Bashō[7:18] Leonard Cohen[10:21] New Camaldoli Hermitage[10:21] Post Ranch Inn [16:25] “Postmodern Tourism: A Conversation with Pico Iyer”[17:08] “The Eloquent Sounds of Silence”[21:48] “The Joy of Quiet”[31:42] “What Ping-Pong Taught Me About Life”[33:14] “Walden”[37:28] “The Open Road”[41:37] “Video Night in Kathmandu”[41:37] “The Lady and the Monk”[41:37] “Lonely Places”[41:37] The Global Soul[44:40] “In the Realm of Jet Lag”[52:35] “Culture: The Leading Hotels of the World”[55:17] Potala Palace[55:17] Naoshima, Japan[55:17] Teshima, Japan[55:17] Narita, Japan[01:00:43] “The Half Known Life”[01:10:10] “No Time”

What does a term initially used 170 years ago in one of the most influential and compelling books in American literature have to do with the cognitive health category? And what was the term that Henry David Thoreau used his 1854 non-fiction book Walden to criticize society's tendency to devalue complex ideas in favor of simple ones…seeing this as indicative of a general decline in mental and intellectual effort? Brain Rot. But that term has taken on new significance in the digital age, especially over the past year or two. Brain rot is a term used to describe the phenomenon involving a constant consumption of short, fast-paced content that can overwhelm the brain, leading to decreased attention spans, mental exhaustion, and a reduced ability to engage with deeper, more meaningful activities. Initially gaining traction on TikTok among Gen Z and Gen Alpha communities, brain rot became so widespread that Oxford University Press even named it the 2024 word of the year. But what if I told you that the term “brain rot” gaining mainstream prominence could prove extremely important in further expanding and evolving the cognitive health category? I believe brain rot moving into the mainstream lexicon could have the power to democratize the cognitive health category. And that's because “brain rot” doesn't age discriminate, or for that matter…discriminate based on ethnicity, gender, or any other characteristic. In fact, very rarely is anyone completely protected today against experiencing mental fatigue from social media information overload. Now in stating that…purchasing behavior doesn't necessarily change materially just because a societal problem has been catapulted into the minds of more consumers. And there's pros and cons to when a functional CPG category is democratized. But something that usually helps push that consumer awareness down funnel through consideration and into purchasing activity is having that category creating brand that unlocks massive commercial success by meeting consumers where they're at with the ideal product development variables…eventually triggering competition that further evolves the market. And while there's a multitude of competitors currently within the cognitive health category…it hasn't seen a Liquid I.V. or Vital Proteins type breakout brand that creates the category by pushing democratized consumer awareness down funnel unlocking massive commercial success. But in stating that…I also acknowledge this business phenomenon could occur in the near-term future from a strengthening sub-segment of the cognitive health category. And then finally, instead of providing you with a typical collection of “retail sales data trends” to validate what you already intuitively assume, that peak performers are more frequently seeking out “fast-acting cognitive-boosting” functional CPG products in convenient formats to improve their daily life, I wanted to end this content a bit differently by adding value through an anecdote surrounding my recent personal journey to minimize “brain rot.”

Our home has a well-stocked, overflowing bookshelf. I have a weakness for beautiful books, especially nice hardcovers, and over the years more and more have been added to the collection. Unfortunately, I haven’t had the time and energy to actually read nearly as many of the volumes as I’ve collected. They remain pristine, beautiful, and—sadly—unread. There’s a danger that our Bibles can become a bit like that. Essayist John Updike, speaking of the American classic Walden, commented that it risked being as “revered and unread as the Bible.” The difficulty of understanding ancient Scriptures written in different cultures than our own can tempt us to leave our Bibles on the shelf—beautiful, beloved, but unread. It doesn’t have to be that way. As the psalmist does in Psalm 119, we can turn to God, asking Him to “open [our] eyes” to see Scripture’s riches (v. 18). We can find trustworthy teachers to help us “understand what [we’re] reading” (Acts 8:30-31). And believers have Christ’s Spirit to guide our hearts to see how it all points to Him (Luke 24:27; John 14:26). Through Scripture, God can give us strength in times of sorrow (Psalm 119:28), protect us from deception (v. 29), and broaden our understanding of how to joyfully live (vv. 32, 35). The Bible is a priceless gift. May it be both revered and read.
Jim Beauperez - known as the “Buffalo Whisperer,” is a fourth-generation Colorado native and proud alumnus of the University of Colorado. Alongside his wife, Julie, owners and operator of Eagle's Wing Ranch, located at an elevation of 8,200 feet near Routt National Forest. At Eagle's Wing Ranch, Jim and Julie raise natural bison, providing high-quality, grass-fed meat from farm to table. The ranch's unique location, combined with legendary North Park grass hay and individual attention given to each bison, results in a product that embodies the spirit of the American West—naturally grass-fed and finished with no antibiotics or growth hormones. Jim's passion for bison ranching began over two decades ago, and in 2007, he and his wife made their dream a reality by purchasing the historic Chedsey Ranch near Walden, Colorado. This family-operated ranch allows their bison to roam freely and live with dignity, mirroring the way they have for thousands of years in the picturesque North Park region. Jim's special connection with the bison, earned through years of understanding and trust, is what has earned him the title of the Buffalo Whisperer. In addition to his work with bison, Jim is also involved in archaeological studies as a collaborator with CU Boulder archaeologists. His extensive knowledge of bison has contributed to recent research on stone tool effectiveness and reverse engineering alongside archaeologist Dr. Devin Pettigrew and primitive survival expert Donny Dust, where his unique insights on bison behavior and history have proven invaluable. Jim's interdisciplinary expertise blends his deep connection to the land and its history with a scientific approach to understanding the ancient past. Tune in as Jim Beauperez joins Bobby Marshall in studio to discuss Buffalo, Ranching, Colorado's North Park, Homesteading, Bison, Meat processing, animal spirit, primitive tools, stone tools, aliens, archaeology, human history, Kenny Powers, bison & science.

Squirrels, possums, turtles, foxes, birds of prey and countless other wild creatures live right here with us in Middle Tennessee. Unfortunately, interactions with humans and human-made things can lead to injuries or death for these animals.Today, we're speaking with the dedicated leaders and volunteers of several local wildlife rehabilitation centers to learn about what to do — and not do — if we come across an injured wild animal. We'll also discuss steps we can take to be considerate and help prevent injuries to our wild neighbors.This episode was produced by Katherine Ceicys.GUESTS: Joanna Johnson, animal care manager, Walden's Puddle Wildlife Center of Greater Nashville Jerry Vandiver, volunteer with Walden's Puddle Wildlife Center of Greater Nashville Anastasia Kudrez, executive director of Harmony Wildlife Debbie Sykes, director of Nashville Wildlife Conservation Center Molly Mayes, wildlife educator, Nashville Wildlife Conservation Center

Dan and Ellen talk with Erica Heilman, who produces a podcast called Rumble Strip. Heilman's shows air monthly on Vermont Public and other NPR stations, as well as the BBC. Rumble Strip can also be found on all the usual podcast platforms. Her episodes range in length from a few minutes to, well, as long as they need to be! As Chelsea Edgar wrote in a profile in Seven Days Vermont, "She wants to make meandering, kaleidoscopic stories about the stuff of ordinary Vermont life." In 2020, Heilman produced a memorable pandemic miniseries, "Our Show." It featured listener-submitted recordings of life in lockdown, and it was the Atlantic's No. 1 podcast of the year. In November 2021 she produced "Finn and the Bell," the textured story of a Walden teenager who died by suicide. It won a Peabody, the highest award in broadcasting. Dan has a Quick Take about tools for local news organizations dealing with various forms of harassment. The Institute for Nonprofit News, a leading organization for hyperlocal journalism, has put together some resources.

Cathryn McIntyre is a natural psychic and clairvoyant and the author of two books about her experience living as a psychic in the historic town of Concord, Massachusetts. She is also an astrologer; a UFO experiencer; and an occasional ghost investigator. A blog McIntyre wrote about one of her investigations in Boothbay Harbor, Maine got the attention of author, Greg Latimer, who investigated and validated McIntyre's findings and included the story in his book, Ghosts of the Boothbay Region. Ronny LeBlanc, star of the Travel Channel's Expedition Bigfoot, featured an interview with McIntyre in the latest of his Monsterland series of books in which she discussed her alien abduction experiences and her ability to connect to spirit, including tapping into the consciousness of the creature known as Bigfoot. In her latest book, The Thoreau Whisperer, McIntyre writes about her experience channeling the spirit of Concord's most famous writer, Henry David Thoreau. Thoreau is best remembered for his essay Civil Disobedience, which was his plea in defense of the rights of man, and for his book, Walden, written about his experiment living alone in a cabin at Walden Pond in Concord. It was soon after moving from Michigan to Massachusetts in 1984 that McIntyre encountered the spirit of Thoreau at a home near Walden Pond but it wouldn't be until 2006, following an after-death encounter with her mentor, who was an eminent Thoreau scholar, that the channeling would begin. Cathryn McIntyre is the author of The Thoreau Whisperer: Channeling the Spirit of Henry David Thoreau (2018), and Honor in Concord: Seeking Spirit in Literary Concord (2008). She is also the founder of The Concord Writer, a literary and publishing concern dedicated to the words, wisdom and enduring spirit of Henry David Thoreau.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-x-zone-radio-tv-show--1078348/support.
We live in an age of empire and resistance - a shifting geography of global power. The military, political and financial support of one country, the US, above all others has allowed a small country - Israel - to commit genocide in Gaza, to the horror of the vast majority of people worldwide. The US military, its corporations, its digital giants, its banks, and its culture continue to dominate globally. Yet at the same time, US-led imperialism has never felt more fractured and resisted. The heavily-resourced US army has been forced out of Afghanistan and was recently expelled from Niger. Nations such as Nicaragua and South Africa are taking powerful former colonial countries to court. Other international institutions, long seen as vehicles for exporting or enforcing US-led neoliberalism, such as the World Trade Organisation have seemingly run out of steam. The US is also increasingly isolated globally: Brazil, China, India, Russia and other nations are directly challenging its hegemony, and the US' dysfunctional democracy is less and less cited as a model by other countries. There is a growing popular sense that the post-Cold War neoliberal globalised order is in crisis. Is US hegemony really fading? Does any other nation, including China, pose any real challenge to US power, let alone offer a political or economic alternative? Has the heralded hope of a BRICS bloc collapsed amidst its contradictions? What would it take to build a more equitable and just new international political and economic order? In this episode, to properly examine where geopolitical or geoeconomic power lies today – and how it is being exercised and how that might be changing, TNI's Nick Buxton speaks to Adam Tooze, and Walden Bello. Adam Tooze holds the Shelby Cullom Davis chair of History at Columbia University and serves as Director of the European Institute. In 2019, Foreign Policy Magazine named him one of the top Global Thinkers of the decade. Walden Bello is a TNI associate and author of more that 20 books, a human rights and peace campaigner, academic, environmentalist and journalist who has made a major contribution to the international case against corporate-driven globalization.

On episode 501 of The Nurse Keith Show nursing and healthcare career podcast, Keith interviews Dr. Christine Frazer, PhD, CNS, CNE, a Clinical Nurse Specialist, Certified Nurse Educator, and academic educator. Throughout her nursing journey, Dr. Frazer has worked in various fields including neonatal ICU, pediatrics, post-partum, adult critical care, cardiac care, emergency, gerontology, and academia. In the course of their conversation, Keith and Dr. Frazer dig deep into how microaggressions and implicit bias can negatively impact the nursing profession, patient care, and the larger healthcare industry, and what we can do about these troubling phenomena. Over the last two decades, Dr. Frazer has taught in all degree-level programs and played a vital role in developing and coordinating new programs. In 2008, Dr. Frazer joined Walden University's College of Nursing and teaches in the graduate nursing program. She is a distinguished recipient of the university's Faculty Excellence Award and serves the university and College of Nursing by serving on various committees and by leading groups. Before coming to Walden, Dr. Frazer taught for nearly a decade at Penn State University, and served as Coordinator for their Clinical Nurse Specialist program. Dr. Frazer was one of ten nurse professionals selected and inducted into the 2023-2024 National League of Nursing year-long Leadership Academy. During her time with the academy, Dr. Frazer developed an Implicit Bias toolkit, which guides nurse educators in directly influencing the trajectory of nursing students' lives, advancing the greater good of healthcare delivery, and creating a more socially just society. Throughout Dr. Frazer's professional career, she has researched and published in peer-reviewed journals on a variety of topics including nurse burnout, student learning, teaching effectiveness, online learning, leadership, neonatal, pediatrics, and critical care nursing. Currently, Dr. Frazer serves on the Editorial Board of Teaching and Learning in Nursing, the Official Journal of the Organization for Associate Degree Nursing.

Meet Blake Smith, the visionary founder of Walden Retreats, a boutique property that masterfully blends the serenity of nature with sophisticated design. Inspired by his years living and working in East Africa, Blake brought lessons from safari camps and Ugandan hospitality back to Texas, reimagining what it means to escape into nature. Walden Retreats, named after Henry David Thoreau's iconic work, offers guests a profound connection to the outdoors—crafted through thoughtful design, simplicity, and intentional experiences. From hand-curated spaces that encourage guests to slow down and reconnect, to the inspiration behind their signature safari tents, Blake's journey from building a social enterprise in Uganda to creating an immersive nature retreat in the Texas Hill Country is nothing short of extraordinary. Tune in to hear: How Blake's time in East Africa shaped his unique hospitality vision. The story behind Walden's name and its connection to Thoreau's philosophy. Why Walden Retreats eschews traditional luxury for thoughtful simplicity. Insights on balancing guest comfort with an authentic connection to nature.

Oxford University Press has named “brain rot” the word of the year for 2024. The term beat out five other finalists: “demure,” “dynamic pricing,” “lore,” “romantasy,” and “slop.” This hour, a look at brain rot, from Thoreau’s Walden through to social media. GUESTS: Casper Grathwohl: President of Oxford Languages at Oxford University Press Katie Notopoulos: Senior correspondent at Business Insider who writes about technology, business, and culture Laura Dassow Walls: Professor Emeritus of English at the University of Notre Dame and the author of Henry David Thoreau: A Life, among other books Support the show: http://www.wnpr.org/donateSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Dreams and aspirations are the fuel that propels us forward, but what are we doing to bring them to life? As Thoreau beautifully put it in Walden, “If you've built your castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put foundations under them.” Dreaming big is vital, but those dreams must be paired with daily action—steps that transform imagination into reality. It's about maintaining the delicate balance between vision and execution: keeping your eyes on the mountaintop while your hands lay the bricks of the path that will get you there. Every day offers an opportunity to lay another stone, build another step, and reinforce that foundation beneath your dreams. Are you working on yours? What's one action you can take today to make your castle in the sky a tangible reality?

Trump Wins, Good Faith Reacts America elected a new president, and a familiar administration is poised to return to the White House. What does it all mean for Christians? Host Curtis Chang is joined by "founding friend" David French and public theologian Russell Moore to explore the intense emotions many are experiencing in the wake of this election. Together, they dive into listener questions about the global repercussions of another Trump presidency, the complex feelings some Christians experience about the political choices of fellow believers, and the evolving role of the church in a deeply divided America. Confronting shared experiences of anguish, alienation, and anger, the trio offers thoughtful insights into how we can navigate this challenging landscape of emotions about the known and unknown implications of the vote.
