This week, we are honored to welcome back Dr. Sandy Hazelip and Eleanor Hamby—the Two Traveling Nanas—on Inspire Campfire. At ages 80 and 81, these lifelong friends captured the world's imagination when they circled the globe in 80 days, proving once and for all that adventure has no age limit.Sandy and Ellie first met more than 25 years ago after both becoming empty nesters and then widows. Best friends from the start, their bond was strengthened through shared service work in Zambia and a deep commitment to living fully. What began as a playful late-night idea—“Wouldn't it be fun to go around the world in 80 days at age 80?”—turned into a viral sensation that inspired people of all ages and cultures.Their new book, Here We Go: Lessons for Living Fearlessly from Two Traveling Nanas, expands on the message that made them famous. From Antarctica's icy shores to the starry Syrian desert to the majesty of the Grand Canyon, their adventures have brought wisdom, joy, and a fearless approach to aging. Packed with encouragement to “make some plans and live,” the book is both a memoir and a guide to embracing life's next chapter with courage and connection.In this episode, Sandy and Ellie share stories from nights in remote villages, a hotel fire in Australia, and even a stint in a Russian jailhouse. Along the way, they reveal what friendship, resilience, faith, and saying “yes” can teach us about living a truly adventurous life—no matter your age.Join us for a heartfelt conversation with Sandy and Ellie about friendship, fearless living, and the reminder that the real adventure isn't just in where you go, but how you choose to live.
HIV has been in retreat around the world. Fewer people are dying of the disease.New infections are decreasing. More HIV positive people have access to life saving medicine.Those trend lines have been moving in the right direction for decades. And US investment is one big reason.The Trump Administration dismantled foreign assistance through USAID, it continued PEPFAR — the President's Emergency Plan For AIDS Relief — but much of the work is either no longer happening or happening at a very reduced capacity.For decades, the United States led global efforts to end HIV/AIDS. That's no longer happening. Where will the trend lines go from here? For sponsor-free episodes of Consider This, sign up for Consider This+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.org.

SummaryIn this episode, Clayton Cuteri delves into the intersection of consciousness, current events, and ethical considerations surrounding military actions and environmental disasters. He critiques the recent transition of the Department of Defense to the Department of War, questions the morality of unilateral military strikes, and highlights the need for political accountability regarding the Epstein files. Additionally, he discusses the environmental impact of corporate negligence, particularly in the context of a mining disaster in Zambia, urging listeners to recognize the interconnectedness of these issues and the importance of collective action.Clayton's Social MediaLinkTree | TikTok | Instagram | Twitter (X) | YouTube | RumbleTimecodes00:00 - Intro01:05 - The Shift from Defense to War04:02 - The Ethics of Military Action11:29 - Political Accountability and the Epstein Files16:31 - Environmental Catastrophes and Corporate ResponsibilityIntro/Outro Music Producer: Don KinIG: https://www.instagram.com/donkinmusic/Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/44QKqKsd81oJEBKffwdFfPSuper grateful for this guy ^Send Clayton a text message!Support the showNEWSLETTER - SIGN UP HERE
Cecil John Rhodes became one of the most influential people in the history of the British Empire. He made a fortune in South Africa by leading the world's most important diamond mining company, De Beers, as well as a gold-mining concern called Consolidated Gold Fields. While he was a busy entrepreneur, he was also a member of the Cape Colony's legislature and served as prime minister from 1890 to 1896, a key period for the development of racial discrimination. His British South Africa Company was given a charter to govern what is today Zambia and Zimbabwe. His most famous legacy is the Rhodes Trust, which funds the Rhodes Scholarships at Oxford University. A complex figure, admired and detested in his own time, Rhodes dreamt to unite Southern Africa's colonies and republics into one state, dominated by white settlers, with labor provided by Black people who were constrained and pressured by discriminatory laws. He built his wealth on the backs of African migrant laborers, for whom he had little regard. His British South Africa Company was accused of fraud. And in 1895 and 1896, he famously encouraged a failed plot to overthrow the independent Boer republic in the Transvaal. Rhodes' coup helped to precipitate the South African War, which started in 1899 and ended in 1902, the year of Rhodes' death. This authoritative biography focuses on the relationship between Rhodes' well-known activities in business and politics and the development of Southern Africa's infrastructure, most famously his plan for a Cape-to-Cairo railway. Rhodes envisioned a region where racism became embedded in the mining, farming, communication, and transportation industries. He pursued this vision in the face of opposition from many quarters. Understanding the extent of Rhodes' activities helps us to understand the challenges of modern Africa and the recent Rhodes Must Fall movement. A critical analysis of this contested figure, The Colonialist: The Vision of Cecil Rhodes (Oxford University Press, 2025) offers an original portrait of a crucial figure of his era.

Welcome to episode 114 of The Journey Is the Reward.We're cleared for a jam-packed flight today. First, we've got some listener feedback from Mike, who's got the scoop on a new bus service for getting into Manhattan from the three NYC airports. He's giving us a new approach to ground transportation. Our listeners are the real experts on this crew.Next, Listener Jessie is asking about the real-world situation with the fire recovery in SoCal—it's a topic the news has been ignoring. Brian is on the ground and will give you an honest update…and it's mostly not great. Our listeners are truly the best part of the show, so please send in your questions to: brian@TheJourneyIsTheReward.org. After that, Listener Lu wants to know a topic that has us fired up: the Airline Reporting Corporation selling our data to the US Customs and Border Protection. You can probably guess how Micah and Brian feel about that one.For the main segment, Micah will interview Captain Dana from Acme Airlines again. Captain Dana was back up in Maine so Micah took the time out of his busy schedule to interview Captain Dana after they finished a wonderful meal at Becky's Diner. We are sure it was much better than airline food! And as always, our ears are blessed by the utterly soul-stirring, goosebump-inducing sounds of the Madalitso Youth Choir! Their Welcome and Goodbye songs, recorded straight from the Royal Livingston Hotel in Zambia, are pure magic.

Interview recorded - 2nd of September, 2025On this episode of the WTFinance podcast I had the pleasure of welcoming back Simon Hunt. During our conversation, we spoke about his current outlook, the risk of an economic depression, the recent meetings in China, BRICS challenging the West, gold and more. I hope you enjoy! 0:00 - Introduction2:12 - Current outlook14:02 - Weak economic data27:22 - Russia, China & India alliance34:32 - China invading Taiwan36:22 - Gold37:55 - One message to takeaway?Simon Hunt began his career in 1956 in Central Africa as a PA to the Chairman of Rhodesian Selection Trust, one of the two large copper companies in what was then Northern Rhodesia, now Zambia.In 1961 he came back to London and joined Anglo American Corporation of South Africa as a PA to one of the Board Directors, followed by being part of a small sales and marketing team for copper. From there, he helped start up a new copper development organisation, CIDEC, financed by copper producers, which he then joined, focusing on conducting end-use studies of copper in Europe.He then went into the City to gain financial experience and founded Brook Hunt in 1975. He was instrumental in setting up the company's cost studies and end-use analyses. He appeared as material witness and consultant in two ITC anti-dumping cases in 1978 and 1984, winning both at the commission level.He has spent 2-4 months every year in China since 1993 and until a few years ago would be visiting some 80 wire and cable and brass mill factories across the country every year. He now restricts these factory visits to a smaller number, all of which he has known for many years.

Episode Summary: What does it take to build distinctly Christian institutions in today's ominous cultural climate? This week, we're joined by our friend Lennox Kalifungwa—a rising podcaster, writer, and cultural commentator whose journey has taken him from Zambia to Moscow, Idaho. Lennox shares lessons from a recent appearance on a hostile CNN segment, responds to Dr. Larry Arnn's claim that Jesus' words, “My kingdom is not of this world,” should be taken literally, and offers strategies for navigating cultural conversations in a polarized world.Together, we explore why truth and love must go hand-in-hand, how Christians can engage faithfully with secular society, and why religious liberty and freedom of conscience are uniquely rooted in a Christian worldview. This episode offers practical wisdom for believers seeking to make a lasting impact in their communities while standing firm in the authority of Christ over all of life.Who is Disciple Nations Alliance (DNA)? Since 1997, DNA's mission has been to equip followers of Jesus around the globe with a biblical worldview, empowering them to build flourishing families, communities, and nations.
Families are the center piece of how God created societies to flourish, yet there are so many things that can tear down this fundamental part of God's design. We know that orphanages are spread out throughout the world and we know that those children should be allowed to grow up in families. In today's episode, we have Chantry Mweemba of Alliance for Children Everywhere joining to dive deeper into the effects of urbanization, education access and other factors that are leading children in Zambia to separate from their families. We also get into how the recent USAID closure is negatively affecting the protection of children in Zambia and how organizations like ACE are continuing to step up for children even in the midst of uncertain times.

Roger Wheeler, a real estate agent from Iowa, discovered that comfortable Western Christianity was missing something crucial - the biblical call to share surplus with those in need. What started as orphan care work in Ghana evolved into a powerful revelation about global hunger within the Christian community. When Roger encountered families surviving on less than 1,000 calories per week, he couldn't ignore the contrast with his own abundance. Through Shoulder to Shoulder ministry, Roger and his brother have now sent over $1 million to feed starving Christians in Zambia, working through 122 local churches with zero administrative overhead. But this isn't just about feeding the hungry - it's about what Roger calls a "food for faith exchange." As wealthy believers give from their surplus, they discover the deeper spiritual life that comes from true dependence on God. Roger challenges us to see ourselves as "a big herd of camels" struggling to enter the kingdom, while those we serve possess a richness of faith we desperately need. This conversation will transform how you think about poverty, wealth, and what it means to follow Jesus in a world of extreme inequality.

Making promises on financing for development is the easy part. Following through on them is hard. Ambassador Chola Milambo speaks frankly about turning global financing commitments into tangible benefits for African communities. Chidi Okpala highlights the role of innovative private-sector partnerships, while Tumi Mkhizi Malebo offers a youth perspective on making finance work for the next generation and Nabila Ageule emphasizes the particularly important role of young women. Together, they map out what it takes to bridge the gap between conference promises and action on the ground, from transparency and inclusive planning to youth-led monitoring of how funds are actually spent.

We are in a cultural war—and it's being fought in our music, our ministries, and even our wildlife. On this episode, Shemane sits down with truth-tellers who refuse to bow down to political correctness, weak faith, or failed policies. From chart-topping anthems to bold ministry calls and global conservation—this week is all about courage in action. [00:39] What Would Charlie Daniels Do?Shemane is joined by her husband Ted Nugent and country star Ira Dean to celebrate their hit single What Would Charlie Daniels Do? Ira shares the real-life road rage moment that sparked the song, how Charlie Daniels once prayed him toward sobriety, and why Ted was the natural fit for the track. Ted recalls Charlie's uncompromising stance for God, family, and country, and together they explain why the song struck such a nerve—shooting to #1 across genres and racking up millions of views. [24:36] Leaving Comfort to Answer the CallFormer police officer and veteran Shane Winnings tells how a radical encounter with God led him to leave a stable career and step into full-time ministry. He unpacks the reality of spiritual warfare, why so many pastors avoid teaching discernment, and how every believer can recognize the battles happening around them. From praying with President Trump to launching Promise Keepers' men's movement, Shane challenges Christians to leave comfort behind and live boldly for Christ in America's mission field. [37:06] Hunters, Conservation & Human DignityAward-winning filmmaker Tom Opre, founder of Shepherds of Wildlife Society, explains why hunters are some of the world's fiercest conservationists. He details how license fees and excise taxes fund wildlife science, why rural voices matter in policy, and the dangers of well-meaning but destructive bans. From Montana grizzly country to Zambia's subsistence farms, Tom shares powerful stories—including the heartbreaking reality of child brides in Africa when wildlife loses its value.

Welcome to Episode 113 of The Journey Is the Reward! While our inbox might be empty, that's probably because we don't constantly remind you that you are the most vital part of this show! But hey, if you've got burning questions, insights, or just want to tell us how much you adore our dulcet tones, send them to brian@TheJourneyIsTheReward.org. Micah and Brian are standing by, ready to answer all your queries. And if we've managed to ruffle your feathers, feel free to air your grievances at IAmReallyOffended@yahoo.com. Yes, that's a real email address, and yes, we do read every single one – consider it our in-flight suggestion box, with slightly more turbulence.This week, Listener Lu sent in a fascinating query about the audacious individual who reportedly impersonated flight attendants and pilots on over 120 flights. It's a story so wild, it practically wrote itself into a sequel of Catch Me If You Can – though this particular aviator wannabe certainly didn't stick the landing and, sadly, his career has been grounded indefinitely. Listener Lu also wanted to dive into the world of travel passes, specifically how those coveted travel agent and airline "buddy passes" actually work. As always, Micah and Brian have the inside scoop for Listener Lu.Adding to our high-flying adventures, you might have caught Micah as a guest host on WBZ Radio in Boston, chatting with Bradley Jay about travel tips and the latest news. Micah, ever the opinionated traveler, truly soared through the segment!Our main event this episode? Brian's recent trip to New Jersey to visit the Queen, his mom. What started as a smooth taxiing experience on public transportation quickly veered off course, thanks to the notorious summer weather patterns in Newark. While United's 787s might be operating with a minimum crew of seven flight attendants – leaving some of us to wonder if they're playing a game of musical chairs with the galley carts – Brian was still in awe of their exceptional service. Though, we must lament Brian's un-cleared upgrades; having to sit in the back of the plane can feel like a direct descent into coach class purgatory for a seasoned traveler. Thankfully, the incredible flight attendants ensured his journey, both to and from New Jersey, was as comfortable as possible, even with the inevitable weather delays. Because, let's be honest, flying into Newark in the summertime without a delay is about as rare as finding an empty overhead bin on a fully booked flight!And as always, our ears are blessed by the utterly soul-stirring, goosebump-inducing sounds of the Madalitso Youth Choir! Their Welcome and Goodbye songs, recorded straight from the Royal Livingston Hotel in Zambia, are pure magic.
Who shapes Africa's story? Zambia's media offers a rare window into how local voices frame global powers like China, the U.S., Japan, and South Africa. From debates on debt and development to questions of governance and influence, the coverage reveals both common threads and striking differences with other regions. Natsuko Imai Kanayama, a researcher at the JICA Ogata Sadako Research Institute for Peace and Development in Tokyo joins Eric & Géraud to share insights from her comparative study, highlighting how Zambian media narratives can challenge global assumptions about power, partnerships, and agency.

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Friday morning, the 22nd of August 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We start in the Book of Genesis 47:3: “Then Pharaoh said to his brothers (Joseph's brothers), “What is your occupation?” And they said to Pharaoh, “Your servants are shepherds, both we and also our fathers.” Then verse 6: "And if you know any competent men among them, then make them chief herdsmen over my livestock.”We need not to despise our occupation or our profession. If you are a doctor, be the best doctor you can be for Jesus. I have heard of doctors who have gone into rural areas where people are struggling with their eyes, and all it is, is cataracts. They take those cataracts out of the eyes, (apparently, it is not a major operation) and all of a sudden, people who were basically blind, can see. That is a sermon that has got more power and impact than any preaching I have ever heard. The people just want to know, “Who is your God, because we want to serve Him.” Use your occupation or your profession for the advantage of telling people about Jesus.I want to tell you about one of my best friends. He lives in Zambia. His name is Brian Oldridge. Now, Brian has got more invitations to go around the world preaching than any evangelist I know of, and what does he do? He shows people how to grow food, especially when they don't have tractors and they don't have fancy implements - just by using a mere hoe, and just the very basic giftings that God has given to each one of us and He is so popular and of course, that is his in-road to preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ.What was Jesus? What was His occupation? Yes, He was a carpenter. He was not a great internationally famous evangelist, He was a carpenter. Oh, but what a carpenter! What was Paul? He was a tent-maker by occupation. What was Peter? Peter was a fisherman by trade. I heard someone say, “Preach the Gospel with all your heart and if you really have to, then use words.” Preach the Gospel using your profession, your talent, your gifting from God, and that will open a door for you to tell people about your beloved Saviour. Jesus bless you and goodbye.

While seeking the help of professionals and responders, she experienced Double Abuse® in the form of spiritual and institutional abuse. These harmful encounters compelled Annette in her relentless pursuit for solutions that involved interviews with hundreds of victims and survivors. She uncovered common threads that cause victims prolonged states of confusion as well as what ultimately led them towards healing. Her journey also involved interviews with hundreds of faith-based leaders and therapists which led her to discover that most are untrained and ill-equipped to identify and help victims of emotional, verbal, and psychological abuse. In working to prevent and remediate such harm, Annette developed protocoled models that are now being taught and implemented with therapists, churches and professional organizations across the United States. She consulted with esteemed experts in abuse, trauma, and healing to ensure the materials align with the highest professional standards. Annette also serves on the Board of Pepperdine University's Boone Center for the Family and is a Board of Trustee member of Northrise University in Zambia. Her writing on these topics of abuse, domestic violence, and bullying has been published in the American Association of Christian Counselors (AACC), Teen Vogue, and numerous other publications. Annette is also a contributing author in the newly released book, “Created to Thrive: Cultivating Abuse-Free Safe Communities”.

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four Thursday takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Clay: Sorry, NY The Senate’s landmark vote to defund PBS and NPR, a conservative goal that has been decades in the making. Clay and Buck frame this as a generational shift in media accountability, pending final approval from the House. The rise of Zohran Mamdani, a New York City mayoral candidate whose far-left platform includes abolishing private property and implementing socialist economic reforms. Clay and Buck debate whether Republicans should strategically allow Mamdani to win, arguing that his radicalism could serve as a wake-up call for voters and galvanize GOP turnout in the 2026 midterms. They suggest that Democrats embracing Mamdani could backfire nationally, especially in swing districts. The Audience Weighs In Calls and emails split between defending New York City and supporting Clay’s provocative idea of “sacrificing” NYC to expose Democratic extremism. The hosts also highlight Elizabeth Warren’s public distancing from Mamdani, interpreting it as a sign of internal Democratic discomfort with his ideology. Alan Dershowitz on Epstein Alan Dershowitz joins the show to discuss the Jeffrey Epstein case, recent developments in the DOJ, and media misinformation. Dershowitz defends Trump against claims of involvement in Epstein’s crimes, asserting there is no credible evidence linking Trump to any wrongdoing. He also debunks conspiracy theories about Epstein’s ties to Israeli intelligence, calling them baseless and antisemitic. Dershowitz advocates for full transparency in the Epstein files, including both accusations and exculpatory evidence, to ensure fairness in public judgment. TN Sen. Marsha Blackburn Senator Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee, offering deep insights into the latest conservative legislative victories and political developments. The hour opens with Blackburn discussing the Senate’s advancement of a major rescission package, which includes efforts to defund NPR and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting—an initiative dating back to the Reagan era. She highlights the elimination of wasteful federal spending, such as funding for vegan food in Zambia and electric buses in Rwanda, projecting a potential $90 billion in savings over a decade. The conversation shifts to President Trump’s early-term accomplishments, with Blackburn praising his swift action on the economy, border security, and crime. She emphasizes his commitment to promises made, including securing the southern border, reducing inflation, and rebuilding the military. The hosts and Blackburn also discuss the “No Tax on Tips” bill and a proposed $6,000 annual Social Security tax deduction for seniors, framing these as key components of the GOP’s 2024 platform. Judicial appointments take center stage as Blackburn details the contentious confirmation of Emil Bove to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit. Despite Democratic opposition due to Bove’s past legal defense of Trump, Republicans pushed the nomination through committee. Blackburn criticizes Democrats for obstructing judicial and law enforcement appointments, urging the GOP to push confirmations forward without delay. The hour also explores Tennessee’s economic success, with Blackburn crediting the state’s constitutional ban on income tax and fiscally conservative governance for attracting businesses and residents. She contrasts this with the rise of far-left politics in cities like New York, referencing the candidacy of Zohran Mamdani and warning of the dangers of socialist policies.
