Correspondent Bill Whitaker reports from Germany's Baltic Coast on the bombing of the Cap Arcona, a little-known human tragedy in the closing days of World War II in Europe. Once a luxurious German ocean liner, the Cap Arcona was commandeered by the Nazis and, at war's end, turned into a floating concentration camp. Thousands of prisoners were killed in the aerial attack. Whitaker interviews historians and speaks with Holocaust survivors who witnessed the bombing to bring this largely overlooked chapter of history to light. This is a double-length segment. Marc Lieberman is the producer.Correspondent Jon Wertheim travels to Nottingham, England, to visit the Kanneh-Mason family—seven siblings, all celebrated classical musicians, whose talent is truly music to the ears. Supporting one another in harmony as they take to the world's stage, this extraordinary septet, as Wertheim discovers, is an orchestra greater than the sum of its parts. David M. Levine is the producer.

On December 10, 2003, the Whitaker family sat down for what they thought was a graduation dinner. By the time they got home, a masked gunman was waiting inside their house — and two of them wouldn't survive the night. On the surface, it looked like a burglary interrupted. But within days, investigators discovered that the "victim" sitting in the back seat, 24-year-old Bart Whitaker, had actually orchestrated the entire attack — and that this wasn't even his first attempt. In this episode, we dig into the disturbing timeline of the Whitaker family murders in Sugar Land, Texas: the failed 2000 plot involving a Baylor roommate, the aborted 2001 murder-for-hire scheme that a former classmate walked into a police station to confess, and the final, successful conspiracy that took the lives of Bart's mother, Tricia, and his 19-year-old brother, Kevin. We trace Bart's troubled teenage years — including a string of school burglaries at 17 — through the recruitment of at least four separate accomplices, the frantic days-long investigation that unraveled his lies about college, his years as a fugitive in Mexico, and the courtroom battle over what actually drove him to try to erase his own family, not once, but repeatedly. We also spend real time on what happened after the conviction: Kent Whitaker, the father who survived being shot in his own family's ambush, publicly forgiving his son and spending over a decade fighting to keep him off death row — a fight that came down to the final 40 minutes before a scheduled execution. It's a case that asks hard questions about motive, memory, and what forgiveness can look like when the person you're forgiving is the one who took almost everything from you.

The Mark on the Wall by Virginia Woolf — A Calming Bedtime Story for Sleep & Insomnia | Books at Bedtime A calming bedtime story to help you fall asleep — the complete short story The Mark on the Wall by Virginia Woolf, read slowly and softly for anyone lying awake in the small hours. A woman sits by the fire on a January afternoon, looks up, and notices a small dark mark on the wall above the mantelpiece. That is the whole of it. She never gets up to look. Instead the mind does what a tired mind does at three in the morning — it wanders off. Shakespeare in an armchair. The people who lived in the house before. All the small things lost in one lifetime. Whitaker's Almanack. A tree standing in an empty field on a winter night. And every so often it drifts back to the mark, the way you keep returning to one thought without ever resolving it. You can listen offline, any time you wake in the night, in the Anchored app —

A Critical Review of 'Letter to the American Church' Movie Visit: Renew.org for a written in depth review. John Whitaker provides an in-depth review of 'Letter to the American Church,' a movie by Eric Metaxas that parallels issues faced by the American church today with the German church during Hitler's rise and the Chinese church under Mao. The film, a follow-up to Metaxas's bestselling book, aims to rally the American church against what it perceives as a critical juncture resembling past authoritarian takeovers, citing concerns like abortion, gender ideology, BLM, and pandemic-related mandates. Whitaker expresses discomfort with the movie's hard-selling approach, its fear-based, alarmist tone, and the unbalanced comparisons it draws. He acknowledges some positive aspects, such as the call to justice and awareness of political harm, but criticizes the film's militancy, lack of nuanced discourse, and its potential to deepen divisions within the American church. Whitaker suggests a more helpful focus on discipleship and engagement with foundational issues of the church's role in society, recommending David Young's book 'Resilient' as a more balanced resource.   Download the free RENEW.org App - https://renew.org/renew-app/  Visit RENEW: https://renew.org/   Check out the following from RENEW.org: Events: https://renew.org/resources/events/ Videos: https://renew.org/media/videos/ Podcasts: https://renew.org/media/podcasts/ Articles: https://renew.org/articles/ Free eBooks: https://renew.org/resources/free-ebooks/ Books: https://renew.org/resources/books/ Audiobooks: https://renew.org/resources/audiobooks/ Sermon Tools: https://renew.org/resources/sermon-tools/ Job Board: https://jobs.renew.org/ Renew University: https://renewuniversity.org/ Real Life Theology Conversations: https://renew.org/rltc/ Sign up for our newsletter: https://renew.org/resources/newsletter-sign-up/

When a message from "Tom Selleck" appeared after Karen Whitaker lost a childhood friend, it seemed like an unbelievable coincidence. But behind the celebrity's name was a master manipulator who slowly gained her trust, drained tens of thousands of dollars, and drove a heartbreaking wedge between a devoted husband, their family, and the people trying desperately to help. In one of the most tragic scam cases in recent memory, we'll explore the emotional manipulation, the devastating consequences, and the cautionary lessons behind the deaths of Donald and Karen Whitaker.

In this episode of The UpWords Podcast, host Jean Geran sits down with biblical scholar Seth Whitaker to explore a question at the heart of Christianity's origins: how do Jews and Christians read Scripture differently—and what holds their interpretive traditions together?Drawing on his doctoral research at the University of St Andrews on the use of the Psalms in the book of Hebrews, Seth argues that the earliest followers of Jesus were Jews wrestling with their own religious heritage in light of the Messiah. Rather than a clean break, he traces a story of deep continuity — one in which the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is the same God who raised Jesus from the dead.Jean and Seth examine why the Old Testament can feel “more vengeful” than the New, and why that contrast is more caricature than reality. Seth offers a striking image: Scripture is not a flat plain where every verse carries equal weight, but a landscape of mountains and valleys, with high peaks of revelation — like God revealing himself as “abounding in steadfast love” at Sinai — that give us a vantage point on the harder passages.The conversation also draws on a previous UpWords episode with AJ Levine to consider what Christians might learn from Jewish interpretive practices: the “70 faces” of Scripture, a comfort with multiple readings, and the practice of reading sacred texts in community as a guard against going off the rails. Seth closes by tracing how rabbinic Judaism and early Christianity gradually defined themselves over and against one another — shaped by events like the expulsion of Jews from Rome, the destruction of the Temple in 70 CE, and the Bar Kokhba revolt — and why he encourages readers to approach the Hebrew Bible less like a prophecy-fulfillment checklist and more like an ongoing dialogue.Whether you've wondered how Christianity emerged from Judaism, struggled with the difficult passages of the Old Testament, or simply want a richer way to read sacred texts, this conversation offers thoughtful insight and plenty to ponder.YOU WILL LEARNWhy every New Testament author was a Jew making sense of an inherited tradition — and why that changes how we read Christian originsEschatology as a central interpretive lens: how “the last things” reshaped the way early believers read their ScripturesThe same God, not two: pushing back on the ancient Marcionite split between the God of the Old and New TestamentsSinai as a “mountain peak” — God's mercy to the thousandth generation versus judgment to the third and fourthScripture as mountains and valleys, not a flat plain of equal-weight proof textsLove and judgment appear in both Testaments — including in the Psalms and in the teaching of JesusThe “70 faces” of Scripture and what Christians can learn from Jewish interpretation in communityHow the early church's patience, love, and care across class lines set it apart in Rome Three historical turning points that drove Judaism and Christianity apart: the expulsion of Jews from Rome (49 CE), the destruction of the Temple (70 CE), and the Bar Kokhba revolt (135 CE)The Septuagint, Isaiah 7:14, and how competing authoritative texts shaped competing interpretationsReading the Hebrew Bible as a dance and dialogue rather than a prophecy-fulfillment checklistABOUT THE GUESTSeth Whitaker is a New Testament scholar who completed his PhD at the University of St Andrews, where he worked with David Moffitt on the Epistle to the Hebrews. His research focuses on Christian origins and how the New Testament authors interpreted the Hebrew Bible and the Septuagint.

Rev. Andy Whitaker Smith will be preaching on John 16:12-15.

Residents of Seattle’s Aurora Avenue are reaching their limit with the crime and violence plaguing the neighborhood. Scott Jennings called out Katie Wilson. Guest: Ben Rudolph is yet another Washington business owner who is packing up and leaving for Idaho. // Big Local: Guest: Dale Whitaker is running for Spokane County Auditor and was allegedly headbutted by a man while posting campaign signs. // You Pick the Topic: A Christian lifeguard was suspended for not flying the pride flag and now he’s going to court. A prosecutor in Virginia is refusing to enforce the state’s new ‘assault weapon’ ban.

At the heart of The 7 No-Nos is learning to notice and release the inner critic, especially judgment, comparison, and the pressure to “fix” ourselves. Kay teaches that these patterns don't just live in the mind, they show up in the body as tension, discomfort, and resistance to movement over time. For your listeners, the conversation could focus on:Softening judgment and self-talk to feel lighter in both body and mindUsing attention as a gentle, body-based practice rather than another thing to “do”Reconnecting with movement and daily life through self-compassion instead of pressureMentioned in this episode:Try WeShape for FREEhttp://weshape.com/podcastHave WeShape build you a better workoutGet 2 Weeks of WeShape for FREEhttp://weshape.com/podcastHave WeShape build you a better workout

So Eric Trump is suing Jen Psaki. And I don't even care what the lawsuit is about. Seriously. At this point, if a Trump sues a Democrat, I assume somewhere there's a fax machine crying and three MSNBC producers stress-eating hummus.But I love the symbolism of it. Because for years these people weaponized government against Trump, weaponized the courts, weaponized intelligence agencies, weaponized leaks, weaponized social media. Democrats turned America into the world's first bureaucratic escape room. Every day under Trump was another clue: “To continue your presidency, solve this puzzle hidden inside a subpoena wrapped in a Russia hoax.”Now? Eric Trump says, “Cool. Your turn.”And suddenly the Left discovers legal fees are expensive when USAID isn't covering them.That's the beauty of MAGA. It's not just political anymore. It's cultural gravity. Trump didn't simply survive. He turned political persecution into a franchise model. Democrats thought they were building his prison cell. Instead they built a gymnasium where conservatives learned how to fight.And spare me this media fairy tale that MAGA is “falling apart.” They've been predicting the death of MAGA longer than Al Gore's been predicting the death of the planet. According to cable news, MAGA has died more times than Kenny on South Park.They tell us conservatives are furious with Trump over war policy, personality, tariffs, tone, Truth Social posts, golf scores, the angle of his tie, and probably the migration pattern of geese. Yet somehow, every Republican who publicly betrayed Trump politically evaporated like cheap cologne in Phoenix.Ten out of ten House Republicans who voted to impeach Trump? Gone.Five Republican Senators tied to impeachment efforts? Gone, including Bill Cassidy.The Bush dynasty? Politically taxidermied.Cheneys? The political equivalent of Circuit City.Romneys? Finished.Pence? Mike Pence has less support in the Republican Party than gluten-free biscuits at a Texas rodeo.And this matters historically because the Republican establishment used to operate like a country club with a velvet rope. You got approved by donors, consultants, think tanks, and guys named Whitaker who own loafers without socks. Trump bulldozed that system. MAGA voters looked at decades of “managed decline” from polished Republicans and said, “Maybe the billionaire from Queens screaming at CNN is onto something.”And here's the part the Left still cannot process: MAGA isn't held together by government dependency. That's why it survives attacks.Leftism? Different story entirely.Leftism would collapse inside a month if it had to survive without taxpayer subsidies and foreign influence money. One month. Thirty days. The political equivalent of a juice cleanse.Because modern Leftism produces almost nothing organically anymore. Every institution props it up artificially: academia, entertainment, NGOs, government grants, corporate DEI departments, media partnerships, foreign donors. It's the ideological version of a patient connected to fourteen machines going beep-beep-beep while MSNBC doctors stand around saying, “Vitals look strong!”No they don't.Imagine if Leftists had to balance a budget. Imagine if they had to run cities without deficits, corruption, or dependency. Imagine if they couldn't endlessly siphon taxpayer money into “equity initiatives” that somehow always end with consultants buying vacation homes.Meanwhile, conservatives already do what Leftists only hashtag about. They donate more privately. Volunteer more. Build businesses. Create jobs. Show up after disasters with chainsaws and bottled water instead of interpretive dance and pronoun worksheets.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Horror stories meet paranormal radio terror in this 400th-episode event. Lost in the Void descends into nightmare as late-night callers share eerie stories of impossible encounters and dark roads—until the final transmission takes a terrifying turn. Featuring Duane Whitaker (Pulp Fiction, The Devil's Rejects), this scary story is a cinematic audio drama for mature audiences who crave immersive anthology horror and unsettling urban legend deep-dives. Randall Burr is the host of Lost in the Void, a lonely overnight radio show where callers share stories of strange figures, haunted highways, eerie truck stops, voices that should not be on the air, and things waiting just beyond the reach of headlights. At first, the night sounds like classic paranormal radio: strange lights under frozen lakes, unsettling highway encounters, mysterious callers from across the world, and listeners who swear the road itself is watching. But as the calls keep coming, something begins to shift. The stories start connecting. The signal reaches places it should not reach. The callers know too much. And the man behind the microphone slowly realizes the show he is hosting may not be a show at all. Final Broadcast is creepy, funny, eerie, strange, and increasingly unnerving as one broadcaster tries to keep control of a program that may already belong to something else. For our 400th episode, Weekly Spooky goes deep into the static with a feature-length nightmare about radio waves, haunted highways, impossible callers, and the terrifying moment when something on the other side of the broadcast starts listening back.
