Oscar-Nominated Hairstylist Camille Friend Talks "Black Panther"
"Let's just jump on in. Let's talk about Wakanda Forever. Let's talk about Black Panther a little bit. You have been nominated for an Academy Award. Now, let me just say that again. Let me say that again. An Academy Award. Okay. That is ginormous for your incredible work on Wakanda Forever. So we've got to start there. Tell us about that. How does that feel? You know, it feels surreal. It almost feels dreamlike. And I just want to say, like, what people don't understand is the journey. So I just want to talk a little bit about the journey that got me here. So this is my third time that I was really close to getting nominated for an Oscar. So, you know, it was on Guardians of the Galaxy 2. We got to the Bake Off. And I'll explain what the Bake Off is. On Black Panther 1, we got to the Bake Off and we didn't make it. So, like, for me, this is the third time is the charm. But I look at it this way. I feel like God had to work on me. He has to prepare me for this moment. So that's why we are here now. I love that. You know, I totally understand what you mean because it really happens, you know, not on our time, as they say. And that's quite true, literally. No, it happens in God's time. And I can tell you, it's something that I think is a combination of a long, you know, 25 -year career to get here and be in this place. And, you know, I just feel happy that it has happened and, you know, that it has happened for a movie like Wakanda forever. Because if you really think about it, this is a movie that could have been over in the sense of, you know, we've lost our star, you know, Chastity Bowman. So this could have been a movie that Marvel scrapped. We're moving on. We're not going to do it. We're not going to touch it. So for us to be here in this movie, in this climate, I feel so blessed. I feel so humbled. I feel so grateful to have had the opportunity. And it happened on this movie. Absolutely. And I have to say, now, the movie Wakanda Forever has gone on. You guys have been nominated for several Academy Awards. So you've got an amazing team. And I just want to take a moment in front of the camera and behind the camera. And it takes, literally, I have to say this, it takes a village, okay? It literally does when you're working on a project like this, right? So I want to hear everything. Tell us about some of the incredible folks. Because, you know, like I said, this takes a lot. And everybody is an artist to me on every single movie, project, TV project. You know, everybody is an artist. Wherever you are, that you are connected with these incredible opportunities. So tell us, what was it like doing something like this? You know, working with these incredible folks. No, I'll tell you. How it all started is, you know, actually, it started from what I call Black Panther One. And what we did there was so inspirational. And I feel like it was so empowering, especially for the black community, the black culture. And it also was something where I think, you know, we really started honing into that idea, which we always have known, but really in a global way, that black hair is beautiful. And looking at black people are beautiful and seeing us in that way. So I think it started that great movement in that sense. So starting from there and moving into the next one, it was like, how can we connect these two movies that are very, very different? So for me, in the design context, it was something that I started with Ryan Coogler, which is the director of Black Panther. Yeah, and started talking to him and really dissecting what this next movie was going to look like. So this movie is going to be, let's call it about the women. It's about, if you look, there's not a lot of men in the movie. So it's really about the women. It's about the connection. It's about the mother. It's about the daughter. It's about the relationship. So all of those things came internal also. So that's something that we started. So what I looked at is starting off with the character of Ramonda and Shuri, the mother and daughter story and the mother and daughter element of it, is that what would they look like if, according to West African tradition, if they had shaved their heads in mourning? So if we took from that time to a year later, what would their hair look like? So that's how I started designing it and creating it from that concept.

Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.

She's 31 years old. And let me tell you what, she's on a mission to be one of the world's top female bare knuckle fighters. And listen, she has her eye on the title. And you know what? Something that I love about Sydney is that she is a true spiritual warrior and she carries her faith and her father's memory with her everywhere she goes and into the ring. Sydney Sundance Smith, welcome to Evangelism on Fire podcast. How are you doing? I'm blessed and highly favored. Yeah, I'm doing well. I feel really good. You know, I'm in a really good place in my life, so. That's awesome. I'm so happy for you. So you know what? So my audience, Evangelism on Fire Nation, so they know more about you. I gave you a little introduction, but tell us more about who you are. Oh, wow. I feel like that's such a big question, right? Like the, what does Shrek say? Like an ogre, I have like an onion, I have ears. Yeah, I don't know, man. I'm just like a kid from the middle of nowhere. I grew up on a horse farm. All three of us, my brother and my sister and myself, we were all born at home. We were not born in a hospital. Oh, you were born at home? Not a hospital, at home. Oh, wow. And so for my sister's birth, my dad actually had to deliver her because the midwife was somewhere else. And so she didn't get there. Oh, wow. So my dad had to deliver my sister. That is wild. What was going on with the midwife? It starts wild. She was delivering another baby like across the county. Right. Wow, that's such a cool story to start this podcast off. Hey, it's interesting from starting to talking with that. You know what I'm saying? But yeah, I mean, I don't know. I just grew up out like in the middle of nowhere in a place called Middlebrook. Doesn't even have enough people to be considered a town and still considered a village to this day. When I first heard about you, I was when I was training at Mixed Martial Arts Institute here in Richmond, Virginia. And I would hear your name mentioned, you know, in my training sessions. Then I got to be good friends with Gigi, who she owned MMA Institute around the area that she lived. In Charlottesville, yeah. Yeah, for a little bit. And through Rick McCoy and Tyus Thomas and David Gladfelter, I got to know more about you because I would just hear your name around, you know, the Institute. So let's get right into it. How did you come to faith in Jesus Christ? So I actually, I grew up in it. I just kind of always believed he was there, that he was and that his son existed. And I didn't really know too much about the Holy Spirit growing up. That wasn't really something, it's not really something that Presbyterians talk about a lot, you know. And so, yeah, I mean, I had a relationship with him for, you know, most of my life, but it really didn't, it was like, you know, like the shockwave kind of hit more when I was like 16, 17. And I was really starting to go through like some really serious suicide and depression. And I got really, you know, just really into the word. And, you know, my mom bought me a study Bible on Easter, the year I turned 17. And I still have it, I still use it every day. And so that really just kind of, cause I just have this insatiable appetite just like to know things. I don't know why I just do. And so, yeah, so giving me a study Bible was a great way. And I just never looked back, you know. And that's, I mean, I've had my ups and downs, right? You know what I mean? I'm not saying, I've walked a perfect path since I was a teenager that is far from true. But, you know, it doesn't mean that I've ever stopped believing in God or loving God or talking to God. You know, I think that I just kind of have this different understanding of who he is and like what he wants to do. Like he's never gonna give up on you, you know? And I think that's something that's really important and not something that I really want to get out there is that I'm not saying go out there and do all these bad things. We shouldn't sin much so that grace can abound much. But what I'm saying is that like, grace covers a multitude of sins. That's what I'm saying. And there's no shame, no condemnation for those that are made new in Christ. And that's what I'm trying to come and talk about is there's a way, we've kind of gotten to this point as a society where if anybody starts saying like, thus sayeth the Lord, or you quote the word in a way that people know that you're quoting the word to them, they just shut down, right? And so I don't know, I just feel like God has written it on my heart in a way that, you know, I just talk about it. I'm not trying to shove it down your throat. I'm not trying to like preach at you, but I just, I feel like God is so enmeshed in everything and every single moment of every single day that I mean, his word is just one more example of that. And speaking it is very powerful and that's something I learned along the way. And so to speak it, you have to know the word. Say that again, Sydney, maybe that one more time. To speak the word, you have to know the word. So yeah, you know, write it on your heart. Yeah, to speak the word, you have to know the word, you know, and I've read some articles about you that you are in the word daily. Yeah, I love that. I love that. Every day. In my study Bible, Josephus, you know, I've got like the concordance, the Hebrew and the Greeks dictionaries. Like I really do, like, I truly go through it all, all the time. I just love it, you know. I think it's really interesting. And I think that when you study the different translations, not that anyone is better or worse than any of the others, but I think that, you know, they all have something to offer. And, you know, that goes for like the Hebrew and the Greek too, because their vocab, like, I don't know how to explain it, but their vocabulary was richer. It was like more dense than ours is. I feel like the words that they chose to communicate what was going on or how they were feeling or what God was saying were chosen for specific reasons. They did a lot of like play on words with, you know, like was it Adam and I can't remember the other one, like that that's similar to his name, but it's like Adan or whatever, you know. And like, so one means Adam and one means something that's like completely opposite and bad that he did or whatever, you know. Hey, you know what, if someone's listening right now, right, so this is mostly a Christian podcast, but a lot of those listeners out there right now, they're not reading the word daily, say like you are or I am. What encouragement would you give to them to pick up the best -selling book of all time, the Bible, right, and get in the word and, you know, taste that a little bit every day. What would you, what encouragement would you give to them? I mean, what do you have to lose, right? Like there's so many places in the Bible where it talks about how we should meditate on God's word. And that's not just sitting there and being like, oh, you know, I'm thinking about your word. But the Hebrew and the Greek actually means to like speak on the utterance, to talk to yourself about it. And honestly, you know, you shouldn't look at it as a chore. I know for a long time, you know, it's not like I've read my Bible every single day for my entire life, right? Like we all go through stages and phases and seasons, but, you know, habits are what you consistently do. So, you know, it's gonna take time to get to that point where, you know, you make it, it's just part of what you do every day. You have your coffee and you sit down and you spend time with God first thing, you know, that's kind of like what I like to do. Just pick a time that works for you. It doesn't have to be like, oh, I'm spending 45 minutes, you know, just literally anything is better than nothing, right? Like God just wants you to say, hey, you're important to me and I'm taking this time out of my day to just spend this time with you. Set yourself up to like read five verses or read a chapter a day or, you know, start with small bits. But I mean, honestly, try not to look at it as a chore. I mean, you're meeting with the creator of the universe and magnificent things happen. Ah, come on. I mean, you know, Jesus is the word, right? Yeah. So, I mean, if you shun the word, you're kind of like shunning Jesus in a way. And he came to give us life more abundantly. So how can you have abundant life if you kind of like refuse the one who's trying to give it to you? Wow, that is, that's deep. That's profound. That is so good. That's the Holy Spirit now. That's the Holy Spirit. Speaking in and through you. Just do the talking. Cause I ramble. People know that. I'll talk forever, especially when it's about God. So I was like, God, please just let the Holy Spirit. Isn't it cool when the Holy Spirit speaks in you and through you and you hear what you just say and you're like, wow, thank you, Holy Spirit. That was totally you. Yeah, that was not me. You're like, whoa, that was good. Yeah, that was fire. That was fire, straight fire. Yeah, I was praying for like tongues of fire to be dropping on people in Albuquerque and stuff. Like it would be so heavy in the arena. Like I pray for that kind of stuff. Like to me, when I walked into church on Sunday, cause I've been doing like a really in -depth study on Joshua. I actually did a pretty in -depth study on judges. And then I went back and did Joshua cause God was like, go read Joshua. And I was like, all right, cool. So that's what I did. And you know, so I walked into church on Sunday and I just, I felt God say, take your shoes off. This is Holy ground, you know? And that was what I prayed over the ring the last time I fought in May, cause they let you go out and check the ring out. And so like, I prayed in the spirit and, you know, people call that speaking in tongues. To me, I call it praying in the spirit. It's personal between me and God. But you know, and I just remember saying like, this is Holy ground. Do you know what I mean? And I like closed the whole circle of it and like, you know, I just, and I pray about it before I go, pray about like his spirit being there, you know, and the Bible says that, that God himself is enthroned on the praises of Israel. And then people want to ask me, like, why do you walk out to Christian rapper, Christian praise music? And I'm like, why wouldn't I, you know, I'm inviting, I'm inviting God to come in and like come into my situation. You know what I mean? And just, and yeah. So to me, it's, it's a lot different, you know? So much of it is spiritually based for me. I mean, even like the hashtag, watch me rise that I use, right? That actually comes from one of my favorite verses in Judges. And it's because it was a woman judge who spoke at Deborah. And you know, I'm always about like the women warriors, like the outcasts that, you know, in society it's like says to be ladylike and they're like, no, I'm going to go fight with the dudes. Like that's who I've always identified with, you know, like Mulan was my favorite Disney movie. Like, yeah. So yeah, I mean, I don't know. I lost her. So, you know what you, you mentioned a moment ago, August. So you have an upcoming fight Albuquerque, right? Just trying to trace that one back, but yeah. But you also mentioned that how you went into the ring and prayed at your last fight. Now your last fight, you beat your opponent. You landed 98 punches to her 26. And you know what I'm like that. Yeah. And you only suffered a few bruises. Tell us about that fight. You know, there was a lot of craziness going into that fight that, you know, I just kind of briefly spoke on and that's pretty much, you know, most of like that's like the gist of what I'll say about it just to like, you know, maintain a modicum of respectability, but basically my corners last minute abandoned me for no good reason. And like one of them wasted a promotion flight and all this stuff, like it was insane. And I'm like at the airport, you know, trying to figure this stuff out. My friend drove down from South Carolina with her mom and her four year old son and like to corner me. And man, it was just wild. Like so many God moments happened. You know what I mean? It was like for every curse, there are two blessings. Like that was, that came true. You know what I mean? Like that was just so evident. And it wasn't just for me. It was for so many other people around me too. Like my friend who came down, she had been, you know, kind of like, you know, a rough state, a stagnant place in her faith with God. And, you know, I guess was feeling some type of way. And when she saw like everything that had happened and how God just like made everything just boom, boom, boom, boom, she was like, look, I told my whole family, there's no way I'll ever question again, if that is real, you know? So literally it was just nothing but God. I was just having a blast. Like I had to put all that stuff out of my mind. I didn't feel any emotion. Like, you know what I mean? I felt some, but I just prayed for protection and peace and to stay on point for what we came there to do. You know, like I had, like I have people who like, I have prayer warriors who literally like that is what we do is we pray over these events. It's not just we're praying over my fight. We're praying over the event as a whole, you know, we're praying over all of the millions of live viewers, you know, that's what we're doing. And it, I mean, hey, I couldn't have, I mean, it was other than, you know, just wanting to push the pace a little bit more. I feel like, you know, it wasn't, it wasn't a bad start to be KFC, you know what I'm saying? And you know what? BKFC, now, one thing I love about you, okay? You're a different breed, okay? You have martial artists, you have your MMA fighters, but tell my audience, maybe some of them don't, they do not know what BKFC is. You're a whole different beast, okay? All right, you're a whole different human beings. So evangelism on fire nation. If you don't know what BKFC is, listen to this. Tell my audience what type of fighter you are, Sydney Sundance Smith. So I started off in MMA, but I was waiting very patiently for them to open my weight class. And when they did, we fight with no gloves, just a little bit of wrap support around your wrist. And you know, I take down some of that. You're talking bare knuckle. Bare knuckles, yeah. Bare knuckles. 100%. She said 100%. Facts, yes. I'm so like, okay, so they're coming up with this new card. It's one in Thailand. It's like the super fight or whatever. And they're letting them do, it's a special rules, bare knuckle Muay Thai. Ooh. I have been bugging the crap out of them. Like, hey, can we get a bare knuckle Muay Thai? And they're like crickets. And then this happens and I'm like, I see y 'all. I see what's happening. Y 'all keep me in mind at 1 .15, I told them, I told all of them, I've told my manager, I've told Dave Felt, I mean, you know, I've told them all. I said, if you start a bare knuckle Muay Thai, don't even ask me any questions, you just sign me up. Sign you up. Every single time you have a fight for me, don't even ask me, don't ask me no questions, just sign me up. Don't do that until the day I cannot fight for. That appeals to me. So how do you go from MMA to bare knuckle fighting? How does that transition happen? Very carefully, I guess. It's hard not to kick people and knee people. I mean, honestly, I was just waiting for them, like I said, to open my weight class. It's been around for five years now. So you're a straw weight, correct? Yeah, yes. All right. They had 1 .25 for a while and I, you know, I've been offered a couple of different, different promotional bare knuckle, you know, fights at 1 .25. But I just, you know, I had a lot of medical issues and stuff and, you know, even now healthy, I have to, I have to work to be at like 1 .32 walking around, you know, like a healthy 1 .32. So there's no way I could fight at 1 .25. Those girls cut from like an insane amount and yeah, no. I'm good at 1 .15, you know, like I can make the weight. It doesn't bother me. I make 1 .15, like my body just automatically knows like, oh, it's time to cut weight. And it just does it. Like I really, you know, I just have this really good system and as long as I stick to it, then I really don't have any problems. I cut weight and I feel so strong. It's so weird, but it's just, I've gotten it down to that, down to that point, you know. You know, one thing that I've heard about you, tell me if this is true, but I've heard that you're a fighter who likes to get hit. Oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, so like, you know, Donald Cerrone, you know, he kind of like a little bit of a slow starter sometimes. He's got to get hit a few times to like kind of wake him up. And then he's just like, you know, like back in the day, that's, that's kind of like me. You know what I mean? It's like, if you don't, if you're not going to exchange with me, it's kind of hard. Like, yeah, I mean, I still fight you, right? But it's not going to be the same level of fight. You know, if you're, if you want to bang with me, you're going to, like, I know people think like, maybe I'm just, you know, exaggerating or whatever, but like, you're going to get a different, a different side of me. Like you're going to bring out something in me that is like, oh, okay, you think that was hard, like my turn. You know what I mean? Like I get to hit you now, right? So I don't know. I just, I love it. I've always loved it. I fought Chelsea McCoy for my first fight, right? Like Rick McCoy's daughter, first ever MMA fight. She hit me so hard, I fought double. I'm not even kidding, right? I didn't know what to do. I had never, like, I was training out of a basement with some, you know, with a guy who had a few amateur fights under his belt. Like, it wasn't like I was Rick McCoy's daughter trained at the MMA Institute, right? I apparently even knew what the MMA Institute was. And I was just like, yeah, I'll fight her. Everybody was like, you're really going to fight her? And I was like, yeah. And then like, I didn't get knocked out or submitted or anything, right? Like we had a good fight, but yeah, she made me see double and I was just kind of like, you know, it was in that moment where it was, it was kind of like, you're either going to do this and you're going to love it. Like, that's going to, that's going to do it for you. You know what I mean? Yeah. Or you're done. You know what I mean? This is not for you. Yeah. And I was just like, I shook my head and I was like, well, then I was like, just pick one, you know? So it kind of solidified that. And you know, so it's not the last time I've seen double in a fight.

"Day 7 The Celestial Choir of Principalities The principalities are the first of the choirs most concerned with the earth and are traditionally declared to have the roles of caretakers over every nation, province, county, district, city, town, village, and house, working with the guardian angels who also are assigned to every spot and person. Two other areas of concerns for the principalities are religion and politics. The former they encourage to spread by prayer and spiritual encouragement. The latter they seek to regulate for the good of humanity by guiding the thoughts and especially the ethics what Dionysius termed the leaders of people all over the world.

"A novena to St. Michael and the holy angels. O God, come to my assistance. O Lord, make haste to help me. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now, and never shall be, world without end. Amen. Day 7 The Celestial Choir of Principalities The principalities are the first of the choirs most concerned with the earth and are traditionally declared to have the roles of caretakers over every nation, province, county, district, city, town, village, and house, working with the guardian angels who also are assigned to every spot and person. Two other areas of concerns for the principalities are religion and politics. The former they encourage to spread by prayer and spiritual encouragement.

Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses. As we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death. Amen. O glorious Prince St. Michael, chief and commander of the heavenly hosts, guardian of souls, vanquisher of rebel spirits, servant in the house of the divine king, and our admirable conductor, thou who dost shine with excellence in superhuman virtue, thou shafed to deliver us from all evil, who turn to thee with confidence, and enable us by thy gracious protection to serve God more and more faithfully every day. Pray for us, O glorious St. Michael, Prince of the Church of Jesus Christ, that we may be made worthy of his promises. Almighty and everlasting God, who by a prodigy of goodness and a merciful desire for the salvation of all men, hast appointed the most glorious archangel St. Michael, Prince of thy church, make us worthy, we beseech thee, to be delivered from all our enemies, that none of them may harass us at the hour of death, but that we may be conducted by him into the august presence of thy divine majesty. This we beg through the merits of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

How a 50-Pound Weight Gain Sparked Ann Carden's Fitness Empire
"Did you start going into the media and the coaching or did you have like other general areas? Yes. So in the process of running that doll business, that craft business, I gained 50 pounds. And because it was very sedentary, right? There was no activity to it at all. And I had never been overweight in my entire life. So I was literally miserable. I mean, except when I was pregnant, obviously, but I was miserable. And so I really hit this kind of a crossroads in my life. Okay, I'm stopping this business. I don't feel good about myself. I don't even know what's next for me. Like, I don't even know what I'm going to do. And I still didn't want to go back into retail management. I still didn't want that life. My kids were still in school. So I started thinking, okay, the only thing I have control of here is to take better care of myself. And so I started eating right, working out. Long story short, I got in the best shape of my life. And I fell in love with fitness. And so I decided, okay, I think I want to help other moms feel this good. And I know that there's nothing around now. At that time, there were not health clubs on every corner. There just were not those things out there. Again, this was a lot of years ago. And so I decided that I would get certified. And I had to order the books. Like, that's how far back this was. I had to actually get in a magazine and order these huge binders that came in the mail so I could get certified. But I thought, I'm going to start teaching fitness classes if I can get moms that want to do this with me. So I went to one of my kids' back to school barbecues, or both my kids' back to school barbecues. And I handed out flyers. I found a community hall where I could teach fitness classes. And I asked moms if they wanted to take fitness classes with me. Well, I was in the best shape of my life. So like, we want to look like you. So yes, we will take them. So I was charging, I don't know, $36 or $39 a month, something like that. Well, it kept growing and growing. And I kept growing. And then I came up with a program called Body Blast. And at that time, it was trademarked. And I was also doing nutrition with people. So I got certified nutrition. And so I had a small bedroom in my home where there were back steps. So I actually set that up as an office and I had people coming to my home and I was doing nutrition with them. But I got the idea to put the nutrition and a fitness program together. And I called it Body Blast. And they came five days a week. We worked out at five in the morning. And I gave them nutrition and we measured and we weighed and we did all the stuff that now you see now. So this would sound ridiculous to anybody, but it was very different back then. I was charging four times what my fitness fees were for this. So it was like $125 or something to do this Body Blast. Well, it literally took off. I mean, people had these phenomenal results. And before I knew it, I had people driving miles and carpooling to come to my Body Blast. And so that really helped my business explode. And then I started looking, okay, I have to move from this little bitty town. It was actually called The Village, 93 people. That should tell you something. I'm going to have to move into the bigger town and find another place. And my husband was going into bigger rent and all of that. Oh, I just don't know. He said, if you can find a place with no lease, no long lease and it's within what you're already making, he said, then I'll support you. That's really where we were. So I found a place where they didn't put me into a long lease and I quickly outgrew that. Then I moved into another building. And then long story short, by the time it was all done, I ended up with a 16 ,000 square foot health club. I had a big weight loss center. I had loads and loads of people. And then during the recession, I opened two more. I opened up Women's Fitness Club in another location about an hour away. And I opened another weight loss center and it was a high -end club. So it was more training, bootcamp style. I was still running Body Blast. That Body Blast program made me well over a million dollars. Just that one little program because I became known for that. Talk about brands. I really became known. We had a waiting list all the time because I was running them myself because I thought at that time, oh, no, this is my thing. This is my baby. And so I was running them myself and people would call and say, when's the next Body Blast? When's the next Body Blast? And so we would have a waiting list. And it got to where we were even turning people away for those. So I just kept up in the price and up in the price. And yeah, so it was a crazy ride.
History That Doesn't Suck
A highlight from 143: The Meuse-Argonne Offensive (pt.2) Breaking the Kriemhilde Line
"It's just past 6 a .m. on a cold, misty morning, October 8th, 1918. We're with the doughboys of the U .S. 82nd Division's 328th Infantry as they battle their way westward through the thick trees and rough terrain of the Argonne Forest. And I don't say battle lightly. The Germans are putting up a fierce fight. Right now, the 328th is on Hill 223, a position they managed to take last night. But before them, the triangular -shaped Eyre Valley is filled with death. German shells are dropping like yesterday's rain, while German machine guns seem to be mowing down every brown -clad Yankee in the first platoon. Good God. If these Americans are going to survive, let alone have any success, they're going to have to take out these machine gun nests. The task falls to G Company, and amid the battle's chaos, Sergeant Bernard Early is ordered to slip off on the left and flank these gunners. The sergeant gathers 16 men, 3 corporals and 13 privates, and together they stealthily move through the thick brush. The hope is that they can sneak around the German machine gun nests and capture them from behind. It seems to be working. They make it through the brush and ascend a tree -covered ridge without being noticed. Here, the 17 doughboys begin to debate their next move when they see two Germans passing through the woods. Noting their foes' Red Cross bands, the Yankees hold their fire, instead ordering them to stop. But both refuse. A doughboy then fires, after which the whole detachment pursues. The two terrified Germans get away, but as the Yanks continue down another ridge, they soon stumble upon a small cabin -like structure. It's a command post. Dozens of Germans are here. Stretcher bearers, officers, military men of all stripes. Not one of them is armed. Bernard and his men emerge from hiding, rifles drawn, ready to take the whole group captive. With little choice, the Germans yell out, Comrade! and quickly comply. But just as the Yanks have their prisoners lined up, an observant Bosch machine gun nest opens fire. Six bullets rip through Sergeant Bernard early. Two corporals and six privates go down too, as do several German POWs. The survivors, American and German alike, dash for cover. This includes the lone surviving American corporal. A fair -featured, freckled, lanky Tennessean, Corporal Alvin York. Nothing about Alvin's hiding place is intentional. He dived for safety like everyone else. But by coincidence of where he was standing when the gunners opened fire, the corporal finds himself somewhat removed from the rest of his detachment, on a hill not far from that sad looking command post. His position offers him protection, and better yet, none of those German gunners can fire on him without exposing themselves in the process. And this is when Alvin's childhood days of hunting wild turkeys in the woods of Tennessee pay off. With German machine guns still firing, Alvin lies down in the prone position, aims his rifle, and pulls the trigger. A German gunner drops dead. The Tennessean pulls back the bolt on his rifle, ejects the spent case, and again, takes aim and fires. He does this again, and again, and again, using up several clips and eventually rising to a kneeling position. He doesn't dare let up, knowing that the minute he does, a German bullet will end him. Suddenly, six bayonet -bearing Germans, perhaps 25 yards out, come running down the hill at Alvin. It's here that his hunter instincts truly kick in, leading him to fire at the most distant of his assailants first, as the Tennessean will later write in his diary, and in his own local dialect, no less. I ticked off the sixth man first, then the fifth, then the fourth, then the third, and so on. That's the way we shoot wild turkeys at home. You see, we don't want the front ones to know that we're getting the back ones, and then they keep on coming until we get them all. Of course, I hadn't time to think of that. I guess I just naturally did it. I know, too, that if the front ones wavered, or if I stopped them, the rear ones would drop down and pump a volley into me and get me. But with his five -round clip half spent before these Germans even began their charge, Alvin has no time to reload as the front few close in. Again, instinct seems to drive him. He drops his empty rifle, grabs his .45 Colt, and manages to shoot every single one of them. He then picks up his rifle and continues shooting machine gunners. One of the German POWs, a lieutenant that Alvin mistakes as a major, and who speaks excellent English thanks to his years working in Chicago before the war, calls out to the Tennessean. English? No, not English. What? American. Good lord. The officer is stunned. The Brits are known for their highly trained sharpshooters, but how is this rookie doughboy such a gifted marksman? No matter. He's deadly. Nothing else matters right now. The lieutenant calls out, If you won't shoot anymore, I will make them give up. Alvin agrees, and the German lieutenant blows a whistle. Nearly a hundred Bosch soldiers come forward dropping their guns. One decides to throw a grenade at Alvin. He misses, but Alvin doesn't. As he'll later recall, I had to tick him off. Point made. No one else tries anything or complains as Alvin makes them carry out the nine American dead and wounded. These hundred or so Germans are now his prisoners. The German lieutenant tells Alvin that the way back to the American line is down a gully. No. Alvin might not know these French woods, but he knows mountains and forests. His sense of direction tells him the man is lying. Thrusting his colt into the lieutenant's back, the Tennessean and his seven fellow healthy doughboys march off with their massive train of captive Germans. They'll pick up yet more prisoners and American escorts as they make their way back to division headquarters in the village of Chateau -Chary. After delivering his prisoners, Alvin York returns to the 328th. The regiment's commanding general greets him, explaining, Well, York, I hear you've captured the whole damn German army. The Tennessean will later recall his answer. I told him I only had 132. Welcome to History That Doesn't Suck. I'm your professor, Greg Jackson, and I'd like to tell you a story. It's impossible to say how many Germans Alvin York sent to the grave in the Argonne Forest that early October morning. Some say it was 28. Conservative estimates go as low as 15. Regardless of the exact figure, Alvin's guns were the quick and the Germans were the dead. He silenced 35 Bosch machine guns and, as we know, took 132 prisoners. The Tennessean will soon receive the Medal of Honor and become a veritable celebrity back in the States. Quite a curious twist for a God -fearing man who had previously been a conscientious objector to the war. But that's the story of Alvin York. Alvin's is but one of many tales worth telling as we come to our second episode on the Meuse -Argonne Offensive. No one else is going to come across like a Hollywood action hero, but today, as we push almost but not quite to the end of this, the biggest campaign that the U .S. Army has yet fought, we'll see American forces push forward with the same Alvin York spirit and grit as they try to crack the thick, layered, and crucial German fortifications known as the Krimhilde Line. But as the Yanks make this push, their advancements, coupled with those of their allies on other battlefields, will make German leaders realize that this war is not only coming to its end, as the Bosch already know, but that they can't drag this out. It's time to come to the negotiation table. It's a winding path getting to this breaking point. On our way today, we'll again join flying ace Eddie Rickenbacker in the skies, see an enormous reorganization of the American Expeditionary Force, or AEF, witness yet another shouting match between General Blackjack Pershing and Allied Supreme Commander Ferdinand Foch, visit General Douglas MacArthur at one of his hardest, most heroic, yet devastating moments in this war, and listen in as some Native American doughboys become the first code talkers. That's right, well before World War II. In the end, we'll see if the Americans can turn last episode's frustrations and failures into victories.

A highlight from Day-7-St.-Michael-Holy-Angels-Novena
"A novena to St. Michael and the holy angels. O God, come to my assistance. O Lord, make haste to help me. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now, and never shall be, world without end. Amen. Day 7 The Celestial Choir of Principalities The principalities are the first of the choirs most concerned with the earth and are traditionally declared to have the roles of caretakers over every nation, province, county, district, city, town, village, and house, working with the guardian angels who also are assigned to every spot and person. Two other areas of concerns for the principalities are religion and politics. The former they encourage to spread by prayer and spiritual encouragement. The latter they seek to regulate for the good of humanity by guiding the thoughts and especially the ethics what Dionysius termed the leaders of people all over the world.

A highlight from Adulthood: Na Scam
"If you are experiencing adulthood like I am currently, I'm very sure that once in a while you'd sit up in the middle of the night and ask yourself, what did I do wrong? No bibondi -bondi and it's so crazy because nobody wants you and we want to grow up so fast. We want to grow up so fast. We want to grow up so fast but we don't know that we are growing into a scam. A scam that is probably bigger than Money Heist. This podcast is going to be around about adulthood and I'll share tips on how I've been managing myself. I hope it helps. Follow me on adulthood not scam. Make I follow you and to enjoy. Hi guys, you're welcome to another episode of the Follow Me Yandt podcasts. My name is Jubal Adeoye and I am your host. If you're a new listener, thank you for tuning in, returning listeners. Thank you so much for your support on the last episode. If you're new here, please check out our last episode. It is very, very, very insightful and let's not forget to share this till we make this podcast a global thing. Yes. So today we'll be talking about how adulthood is a scam and yeah, that's not a joke. Adulthood is probably the biggest scam since Money Heist but we're looking at this from an angle of solutions. So we won't be talking much about all the shit you have seen while, you know, being an adult. So I am going to be talking about how I've been able to navigate through that and how I have been able to manage it to make it as painless as possible. It's practically impossible to make it painless, but we're trying. So number one is have a few good friends. I my call friends my village, they are my people, they are those people who I run to whenever I need help, whenever I need help with anything basically. So have your village, have people who genuinely look out for you, who genuinely care about you, who want to know, you know, if you're doing good. This doesn't just mean friends who you guys, you know, party together. You can have party friends, but please make sure that you have friends who look at you from a state of, I'm concerned about you, have a few good friends, then please be close to your family as much as possible. The eugenium relationships, I'm not saying you should be on the phone all the time with them. I hate calls too, but just try to make sure that when you call them, when you guys talk, you're asking about things that actually matter to them. Make sure that you know their interests. Don't be that person who wants to buy them a birthday gift that you don't know what they want. Please be as close to your family as much as possible. Stay away from toxicity, please. And don't forget this particular point, a lot of people will be waiting for it, but then you might be the toxic one that you don't know. So introspection is also one of the gifts that you should probably pray for, or you should probably, what's it called, develop. Try to see things from an objective point of view, always. Don't look at it from your biases. It's not easy, but you can do it. You can do it. You can do it. If you can write and tailor your scripts according to what your lecturer wants, definitely you can introspect. So please introspect. And then this leads us to the next point, which is be ready to learn, unlearn, and relearn. And I think there's one more to make it four of the learning process, but please, you're not too old to find out that you've been wrong about something. You're not too old to find out that you're not too old to start learning something new. That's it. So please don't be stagnant. That's a never ending cycle. And I know that you can be a witness because our parents do this a lot. Don't tell them I said so, but they do. And I mean, when they're wrong, they rarely ever admit it and that's wrong in itself. So when you're wrong, please admit it, let's change the cycle. Let's make it better. Let's not be, you know, the adults that we know now. So let's be the new kind of adults. Okay. So be ready to learn, to unlearn and relearn, and then make sure that you see this part that I'm about to say is the most important part of this podcast. And I'm not even kidding right now. If you've not been listening to the other four points, please, this is very important. Always have still, have some still in your house, have some with your pastor, have some at church, have some with your neighbors, have still everywhere. And I'm not even kidding. I don't mean this in a proverbial way. This is literal, like obey at a day. See always have it because it goes with bread, with rice, with you can even make jollof rice with steel. I'm telling you it will fried steel will make a very good jollof. Let's not go into that. That's not why I'm doing this. I'm just telling you that please, it is very important that you have steel because it will save your life in a way that you never thought it was possible. Please make sure you have steel. Protein is not necessary. Just have this steel first. Have steel. You can buy egg to this steel, you can buy some egg, but please have steel. And I've been saying this for like one minute now, so I'm very sure that it has registered in your subconscious to always fry steel, especially if you're staying alone. Fry a lot of steel and keep it somewhere. Keep it with your enemies, keep it with your friends, keep it with your parents, keep it every week. Just make sure that you are fortified, you are steely, fortified. Thank you. And don't forget to have fun. I don't do it as a way of sucking out the fun in everything. Have your own ritual. My ritual now is I make sure that every week I keep up with a couple of series. Bob had a visualizer part of it. It's a very, very funny rom -com that I enjoy.

Adulthood: Na Scam - burst 1
"If you are experiencing adulthood like I am currently, I'm very sure that once in a while you'd sit up in the middle of the night and ask yourself, what did I do wrong? No bibondi -bondi and it's so crazy because nobody wants you and we want to grow up so fast. We want to grow up so fast. We want to grow up so fast but we don't know that we are growing into a scam. A scam that is probably bigger than Money Heist. This podcast is going to be around about adulthood and I'll share tips on how I've been managing myself. I hope it helps. Follow me on adulthood not scam. Make I follow you and to enjoy. Hi guys, you're welcome to another episode of the Follow Me Yandt podcasts. My name is Jubal Adeoye and I am your host. If you're a new listener, thank you for tuning in, returning listeners. Thank you so much for your support on the last episode. If you're new here, please check out our last episode. It is very, very, very insightful and let's not forget to share this till we make this podcast a global thing. Yes. So today we'll be talking about how adulthood is a scam and yeah, that's not a joke. Adulthood is probably the biggest scam since Money Heist but we're looking at this from an angle of solutions. So we won't be talking much about all the shit you have seen while, you know, being an adult. So I am going to be talking about how I've been able to navigate through that and how I have been able to manage it to make it as painless as possible. It's practically impossible to make it painless, but we're trying. So number one is have a few good friends. I my call friends my village, they are my people, they are those people who I run to whenever I need help, whenever I need help with anything basically. So have your village, have people who genuinely look out for you, who genuinely care about you, who want to know, you know, if you're doing good. This doesn't just mean friends who you guys, you know, party together. You can have party friends, but please make sure that you have friends who look at you from a state of, I'm concerned about you, have a few good friends, then please be close to your family as much as possible. The eugenium relationships, I'm not saying you should be on the phone all the time with them. I hate calls too, but just try to make sure that when you call them, when you guys talk, you're asking about things that actually matter to them. Make sure that you know their interests. Don't be that person who wants to buy them a birthday gift that you don't know what they want. Please be as close to your family as much as possible. Stay away from toxicity, please. And don't forget this particular point, a lot of people will be waiting for it, but then you might be the toxic one that you don't know. So introspection is also one of the gifts that you should probably pray for, or you should probably, what's it called, develop. Try to see things from an objective point of view, always. Don't look at it from your biases. It's not easy, but you can do it. You can do it. You can do it. If you can write and tailor your scripts according to what your lecturer wants, definitely you can introspect. So please introspect. And then this leads us to the next point, which is be ready to learn, unlearn, and relearn. And I think there's one more to make it four of the learning process, but please, you're not too old to find out that you've been wrong about something. You're not too old to find out that you're not too old to start learning something new. That's it. So please don't be stagnant. That's a never ending cycle. And I know that you can be a witness because our parents do this a lot. Don't tell them I said so, but they do. And I mean, when they're wrong, they rarely ever admit it and that's wrong in itself. So when you're wrong, please admit it, let's change the cycle. Let's make it better. Let's not be, you know, the adults that we know now. So let's be the new kind of adults. Okay. So be ready to learn, to unlearn and relearn, and then make sure that you see this part that I'm about to say is the most important part of this podcast. And I'm not even kidding right now. If you've not been listening to the other four points, please, this is very important. Always have still, have some still in your house, have some with your pastor, have some at church, have some with your neighbors, have still everywhere. And I'm not even kidding. I don't mean this in a proverbial way. This is literal, like obey at a day. See always have it because it goes with bread, with rice, with you can even make jollof rice with steel. I'm telling you it will fried steel will make a very good jollof. Let's not go into that. That's not why I'm doing this. I'm just telling you that please, it is very important that you have steel because it will save your life in a way that you never thought it was possible. Please make sure you have steel. Protein is not necessary. Just have this steel first. Have steel. You can buy egg to this steel, you can buy some egg, but please have steel. And I've been saying this for like one minute now, so I'm very sure that it has registered in your subconscious to always fry steel, especially if you're staying alone. Fry a lot of steel and keep it somewhere. Keep it with your enemies, keep it with your friends, keep it with your parents, keep it every week. Just make sure that you are fortified, you are steely, fortified. Thank you. And don't forget to have fun. I don't do it as a way of sucking out the fun in everything. Have your own ritual. My ritual now is I make sure that every week I keep up with a couple of series. Bob had a visualizer part of it. It's a very, very funny rom -com that I enjoy. I watch All Americans, I watch The Blacklist, I watch, what's the other one, Bel Air. So please, and I know that these, they come out and I strictly, I have All American on my system now and once I end this recording, I'm going to see it. So have your own routine of fun. Have something that makes sense to you as an adult. Don't just be the boring adult who just wakes up, leaves, and then just dies. And then be close to God in any way you know you can. There's no man. Wow. Be close to God. The closer you get to him, I think that's the closer you'd get to him. So that's the only hack, be close to God. Don't rule him out. Yeah. So I think that's all. Yeah. I'm so proud. I think that's all. I'm such an adult. I'm sharing advice. Mommy, I made you proud. Yes. So that's all for this episode. Thank you so much for listening. I love you guys. See you on the next episode, which is going to be deep. So prepare your mind guys. We are going, we're cutting in deep into the layers of your hearts. So have a fun time guys. Don't forget to share this to someone who is growing to the adulthood face like me. Love you. Bye. Hi, sweet listener. You've gotten to the end of the episode. Thank you so much for listening. Always have still, always have still, always have still, always have still, always have still.

Lets Be Frank Podcast - Men's Mental Health
A highlight from Shadows of a Silhouette - Fortune Favours The Fortunate
"Welcome to Let's Be Frank, the men's mental health podcast. Join us as we break the stigma, embrace vulnerability and prioritize mental health in men. Together, let's use your voice. Guys, welcome back to Let's Be Frank, the home of men's mental health. Today, we have got a brilliant rock and roll quarter in the house that go by the name of Shadows of a Silhouette. And the sound is a fusion of alternative, rebellious and personal vibes. Coming from the heart of England, this band has released over 25 original tracks on Spotify, iTunes and Amazon. We're joined by Nathan Tyler, who, along with friend Greece, have been creating music for four years, turning out more than 50 songs on SoundCloud and major platforms. Drawing inspiration from legends like Arctic Monkeys, Bowie and Nirvana, the music has even graced BBC introduces for the East Midlands. And they've rocked the Metrodome in Nottingham. They've also played the Quarry Stage during the Wyandotte Festival in front of 2000 fans, an experience that fueled their passion for music. This year, they have hit the main stage at Wyandotte Festival, producing an unforgettable show. So guys, girls, stay tuned as we dive into the guys world and discover what drives this band's unstoppable journey. But as always, let's check in with resident host Mr Ryan Smith. How are you doing, mate? What an introduction that was, eh? I'll tell you what the hell's going on. This is like the big time now, isn't it? This is just like, I'm going to say so rock and roll, but that's like, I think that's more like 60s rather than the 90s, I don't know. Anyway, I just know I'm older than most of this band put together. So, yeah, no, absolutely brilliant to get these guys on. I'm feeling good. Started watching the ice hockey today, you know, a little bit late jumping on with you just because of the ice hockey. But do you know what? I'm in a good place. So, yeah, guys, welcome to the show. How are you all doing? Well, thank you. Thank you for having us on. You say you're a lot older than us all put together, but we all know, mate, you're still 21 in that. Hard to show if it was, but we break through and still look like a one year old messing about. Bless you, bless you, bless you. Panthers or Steelers? Don't mention that second one. No, if you mention that second one, you mention that second one and we'll just stop this right now. All right. No, no, no. I didn't realise. That's all right then. That's all right then. Yeah, yeah, Panthers, Panthers through and through. No, but guys, honestly, welcome to the show. We've been throwing a couple of conversations back and forth for a bit now and it's finally here. So, you know what? Guys, introduce yourselves. Well, we're Shadows of a Silhouette and, of course, we're a four piece band from Derby. We just, Derbyshire, we try and focus on sounds that are a bit more like authentic, like through and through. Even all of us playing our own instruments on songs like you wouldn't think that to be something that you'd be lacking in the music industry. But actually, nowadays it's more dominated by electronic simulated sounds. I'm Nathan Brown, the lead singer. I've got Rhys Carter, lead guitarist. And Ferg's in Corfu at the minute, but we've also got Tyler Anderson, our drummer. Fantastic. So, yeah, guys, I managed to listen to your latest track that's going to be released, I think, later this month. You know, well, later in September. We're recording this at the beginning of September. But, you know, you're going to be releasing that one. I'll tell you what, I was listening to my car on the way back from Mansfield earlier and it's catchy and I get it. You know, it's I think it speaks. So, yeah, I'm looking forward to that being released. It's my personal favourite song that we've written for a long time. Yeah, it's fun to play in all life. Yeah, it's quite political. It's a banger. But, you know, it's really like a partial political. It doesn't really speak to supplement anybody else, any political party or belief system. It's more for the common man, isn't it? Yeah, it's just more for the common good side of politics. The politics doesn't actually get spoken about in politics. No, no. And, you know, I actually thought, you know, it actually reminded me of sort of Age of the Shadow puppets. Like Shadow puppets? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So, yeah, it's that sort of... You're sorry? It's funnily enough the first band I ever saw live, actually. Yeah, that's why it's had that sort of beat to it, that sort of rhythm to it. And it just, yeah, you know, it was good, it was good. Well, I'll take that. Anyway, no, absolutely. What was the whole process behind writing that song? So, what was your thinking behind it and kind of how long has it taken you to... Well, I had a riff kicking about from the start of lockdown, really. Obviously, we couldn't practice, so... We were writing other songs. Got me loop pedal, yeah, and got the riff down. But we didn't really touch it until about, when was it? Like January? It started kicking it about, didn't we? We got some drums on it, and then Nathan wrote, as he does with most of our tracks, wrote all the lyrics for it. And, yeah, it's... It came quite quick, though, didn't it? It was just one of them, like, kick your fingers movement when you and us rehearsing. And then it just, we just all looked at each other and just thought, this is awesome, this. And then Nathan's writing side to it. It just... Put the structure together. Put the structure together, and then, like I say, it was just about... The words just came straight out. It's this one. Yeah, it's what we opened up the main stage with one or two as well. Yeah, it's brilliant. It's quite... Yeah, like, straight in your face, isn't it? Tempo, it's got tempo, it's got attitude. It's like hitting a knockout punch in the first round. It is a cracker, it is truly a cracker. It is really a cracker. Yeah, the lyrics, the lyrics. And it was, as you say, it... It's just the whole idea of that track. Straight in your face. Yeah, that's what we wanted. It's a song to get people's attention, really. And then it's... You know, who are these? And then it's... We've got you in the palm of his hand then. Crick up your ears. Also, it's an expression of that... Those little thoughts we all have about, you know, on a daily basis, when we're considering what's going on in the world around us. It's just a... No. With our ability to create media, to add into the great ocean of it, we think certain songs come out in principle, or because of principle, that something to have been spoken like that, or in a way, just for some... It can be heard from somewhere by someone. It's just about the rich going rich and the poor going poor early on, isn't it? Well, it's about the trap. We're all trapped. It seems like we're... The fucking mouse trap's already come down over us, and we're all stuck, you know. But life keeps going by for everyone as an individual. But there's a stranglehold on a lot of us, personally, as people trying to get through this world, but it's so slow for some people who don't have to suffer it. So, looking at kind of that... You know, looking at the song, are you speaking from your own sort of backgrounds and stuff as well, your own experiences? I think it's kind of impossible not to, of course. Like, when you are writing Straight From the Heart, not all of our songs are, right? Because sometimes it's nice to write a song about an idea that doesn't paint a memory. It's just... But then again, on the other hand of that, a lot of our tunes are personal anyway. Especially over the last couple of years, with what's gone off with Reece and Nathan and stuff like that. So, it's a way that I sort of... I'm sure Nathan's probably the same as to get these thoughts that are in your head. I have to get them out on paper and write them down about lyrics or poetry and then channel that into some of that music, which then becomes something tangible. The thoughts that you've got in your head, for me, it's the perfect way to sort of... Say what you want over it. Yeah, get it out and... To make room. Then it becomes relatable, because although it's personal to you, other people can then relate to that and hear what you're saying. Like, yeah, I know what you're on about here. Well, certainly we want to know what it feels like when they can hear the fact that we're getting something off our chest in these songs. Yeah, yeah. Because it's not whitewashed at all, really. We all work full -time, full -time jobs. We didn't go to uni or study music or anything. We came together because we all... Look like rockin' art. Look like rockin' art. We think it's one of the best things in the world. It's a freedom from life. That's good the thing about music, where it doesn't matter what race you are, doesn't matter what religion you are, everybody can come together and just be in the same field or at a venue and enjoy the same thing. Everything goes out the window. It's a universal language. And there's a lot of culture where we come from, a lot of working culture of people working really hard, raising families, but not really making enough time for themselves. We come from an area in the East Midlands where lot a of insufferable mental health is right there on the surface, but people don't even talk about it. They all know what's going on with each other. I know Jack's got a question for you, but obviously we've just jumped on beforehand and where I live, it's actually, what, five, ten minutes from... Not even ten minutes, is it, from where a couple of you guys live? So I get what you're saying. You're looking at the smaller sort of outlying villages that are ex -coal mining places. It's a similar sort of state in Wales. It's a similar sort of state in Lancashire, Yorkshire and things like this. And it's these forgotten roots. And listening to that track that you've shared with us, you can really hear what you guys are trying to achieve. So it's more of an observation rather than a question. But I know Jack's got a question for you. Before we come, because obviously we're going to look at your personal journeys and kind of delve into there and prod around a little bit, but while we're on the subject of why not, I want to ask you guys, how was that experience going main stage? It didn't even seem like that much of... There was a feeling of being out of place, but also at the same time being exactly where we're going. Yeah, it wasn't imposter syndrome, but you feel like... The best thing is if you feel like you've earned it, but then you also feel that if you're not getting nervous for a gig like that, I think you've got to get nervous to some degree, because at the end of the day, you're entertaining people and everyone's around on you to put a good show out. And then we just hope we deliver. And that's like, it doesn't matter how much of a buzz we've got to have to play. And the first thing I said to people closest to me was, did you like enjoy it? It's not about us, it's about the fans. Yeah. But the experience is just... What was that feedback like? Oh, brilliant, yeah. Absolutely awesome.

Evangelism on SermonAudio
A highlight from Session 19 Evangelism
"The visitation of evangelism is God's method. It's taught and practiced in the Bible. Capital letter A. New Testament examples, Luke 8 .1. I think it will be up here. It came to pass afterward that he went throughout every city and village preaching and showing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God and the twelve were with him. Go to Luke 10 .1. Do you have that here? Go back to that one. I should have mentioned that. Luke 8 .1. After these things, the Lord appointed other seventy also and sent them two and two before his face into every city and place, whether he himself would come. Visitation evangelism requires that. I like the idea of two by two, frankly. I do like that. So they had thirty -five teams of two each going out, sent to every city and place for the Lord. Then we'll note Luke 10, the next two verses, two and three. Therefore the Lord Jesus said unto them, The harvest truly is great, but the laborers are few. Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth laborers into his harvest. Go your ways, behold, I send you forth as lambs among wolves. So the message was, the harvest is great, I'm sending you out to reap the harvest, the laborers are few. You'll note the words, pray ye, comes before, go your ways. So we ought to pray and look to the Lord for that, for the blessing to come. How did they do it? Verse 19 says that the Lord said to them, Behold, I give unto you power. So he gives them the power to go. So there's pray first, go second, and God will give the power. We'll go to Acts, the fifth chapter, verses 40 and 42. To him they agreed, and when they had called the apostles and beaten them, they commanded that they should not speak in the name of Jesus and let them go. And they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for his name. And daily in the temple and in every house they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus Christ. So they went everywhere teaching and preaching. And he sent them forth and they did it in the temple and in every house they preached and taught Jesus Christ.

Andi Swan of Destiny Rescue Is Confronting Child Trafficking on a Global Scale
"Name is Andi Swann. I am the director of strategic partnerships for an organization called Destiny Rescue USA and we are a global anti - trafficking Christian organization. We exist to rescue children from human trafficking and sexual exploitation and help them stay free. So we are a both and organization. We do both the rescue and the recovery efforts to make sure that whatever vulnerability led to them being trafficked and entrapped that they don't fall into that same area again. Wow that is such such a wonderful thing. When I first heard about the organization I said I have got to find out about this and reach out and I was so pleased when you answered my email and said yes I'd love to come on the podcast. Now how did you get started with the organization? So I'm coming up on my one -year anniversary with Destiny Rescue. I have been in the nonprofit sector my entire career so coming up on 20 years and I just always cared about vulnerable kids but this is the fulfillment of a calling that the Lord placed in my heart 15 years ago. I went on a short -term mission trip with my church to northern Thailand in 2007 and again in 2008 and we were assisting full -time missionaries that were in that in that area and we would work with them during the day with children and then we'd go out into the night markets at night but we spent a couple of days in the hill villages and I grew up in the deep south. There's not a tremendous amount of diversity in the community that I grew up in so it was really eye -opening for me just the deep levels of generational poverty. I mean just barely their basic needs being met food, clothing, shelter especially food and shelter and so to see children playing without shoes without food and so the missionaries that served in that area talked about how grim the outcome was for these children especially if they were little girls that at the age of seven or eight that that's old enough to where parents say we can't provide for you anymore you're going to have to earn an income yourself so at that age they would either start picking rice or picking tea leaves and if they couldn't work fast enough they would be replaced and then sent to the city to get work and if a little girl at age eight is sent to the city for work she has no marketable skills most children in that area don't even speak the main language because they are a tribe so they don't speak Thai they don't speak English they speak a tribal dialect so they are taken advantage of and a lot of times forced into the commercial sex industry where they will never escape and I had recently graduated from college I had just bought my first home and so I had a secondary education and I owned property which was something that those little girls had no hope of ever accomplishing unless somebody intervened and it broke my heart broke my heart in a million pieces and I just told the Lord however you want to use me to affect change on this I will leave me I'll go

Dwindling alaska salmon leap indigenous people in crisis now as usual native people especially in this particular case. Alaskan natives are paying the price for generations of practices beyond their control that have caused climate change and rightfully so lots feel that the state and federal authorities aren't doing enough to bring in digits voices to the table. Now we've heard that lots of times and we've seen the results of that lots of times and well. Tonight's context to that german speaking from some experience with federal agencies. If they do bring us to the table is it's it's under their rules another their agendas which basically amounts to be. You know being useless to us.

your news comments and insights from Bloomberg opinions worldwide team of editors and calmness I'm your host June grosso This week we discuss mask rules and the authorities who break them Also on the show why women are in a prime spot to dominate the new economy Plus New York City has a long way to go before it reaches a full recovery But first the great resignation has taken a toll and has more and more employees quit Those that are left behind to pick up the slack are facing major burnout and while leaving to find a new job might be nice many just don't have that luxury Opinion columnist there are duchy joins us to explain how they should cope while everyone else is quitting So tell us workers are burnt out and it's not just workers in healthcare Exactly I am looking at average hours worked per week across 300 occupations And most of them are showing that workers are working more hours And those data always underestimate the kind of intensity that workers are facing But the overall data just shows their high pressure across the board Places you wouldn't even haven't even made the move like electronic repair people IT consultants A lot of people in teaching are facing you know the administrators and also the teachers but lots of occupations that are kind of under the surface They're not blasted on the front page are really facing more intense work So what should an overworked employee do What's the first suggestion Yeah Well I'm really glad you're having this show because they should know that they're really are not alone that it's almost everywhere One thing they can do is kind of resign themselves to it You know it may shake out do all the self care stuff you read about on the personal health item So they could just let it go But if they're feeling that they are valuable to the organization and that they have a good platform with which to negotiate with their overworked supervisor on a really stress supervisor they may be able to figure out a work schedule that would be better off for both of them Remember don't ever go to your boss to say how they can solve your problem Go to your boss to say how you might be able to solve their problems But that takes negotiating skills and the right kind of environment The second thing you can do is really watch the if the situation is dangerous You know whether or not the conditions that you are under are causing higher risk of injury or even illness You also may want to monitor what kinds of protections you have about working overtime and being forced to work overtime or not being paid for over time Now that is a little confrontational you can complain to the federalist state authorities without your employer knowing who complains But that is an important step And it might help your employer tell the big boss or the shareholders hey.

"He covers City Hall joining us Now, Greg is this is busy a day or is it coming down a little bit? I know these have been pretty pretty hectic in your world. You know it's up and down, but even the down is pretty up. Usually You know something else I saw here. Alderman Brand new Riley changed his Twitter background to pot Paradise Alderman. He seems to be pretty upset. It's one of the things that's coming out of City Hall right now. There. Mayor is not really keen. Or maybe she's already shut down the idea of having one of these marijuana dispensaries in the downtown district, which would be his ward, and he's not happy about it. Yeah. You know, it's not necessarily knew because the mayor has been opposed to it from the beginning. She said. She didn't wanna make it, uh, you know last year and even 2019. She said that She didn't wanna make it into take away the family friendliness of it. You know, as though she doesn't want people's selling weed right outside the bean, which is probably something that everybody would agree on. But she is she's taking it pretty hard line from the beginning against weed downtown, and the position now is that with storefronts vacants emptying out and all the vacants after the civil unrest in the pandemic. There is some pot businesses want to come down. They should. And the mayor dismissed it way out of hand yesterday and she said that, you know, she doesn't want it to be a pop paradise, which I think some people, um And you can see the Alderman. Two are rolling their eyes at because they would say nobody's trying to make downtown upon paradise, Although it is a good throws. It is a great phrase, and he's gonna use it. I'm sure I don't know if he's totally lost. This bet. Would you say it's done done? Not gonna happen. Or you think that there might be some discussions Still, would we ever see it? A downtown dispensary in the near future. I think what all the men Riley has on his side is that it doesn't make business ends. Put a dispensary business down there somewhere. And so there's going to be economic and financial pressures of the city. He is a fairly prominent and influential all the man he's not. You know, Um, he's not just one of 50. Here's a prominent alderman with a prominent ward, who, um, who is respected by his colleagues that said, it is hard to get something done. If the mayor doesn't want to get it done in this town, and even Even with all the chaos that has happened on their middle life that is still true, so to be determined We're not turning Michigan Avenue into the pot paradise, she said. His response, though, and he's already kind of taken a social media about it saying that, you know, look, there are no quality of life for crime related issues that directly Surround these dispensaries that they're currently operating. So it'll be the same. Downtown is his argument. He's also making the economic argument last night checked, We're broke. Couldn't we use a downtown sort of one? Maybe it's not a Michigan Avenue on the central business district or something like that. Maybe it's kind of off on one of the side streets around there something but Wouldn't it make sense economically, to do that kind of thing. They have been hugely profitable, right? Yeah, he made he made the point that you know. Next time they say we're broke and we need to raise property taxes. This is exhibit a form. Yeah, right. That's that is the other argument. You also have this ward by ward breakdown of Chicago Carjackings, Alderman. I guess they released it to the alderman. Police did Did you see anything that you looked through that data? I know it's 2018 2019 and 2020. They go ward by ward and describe how many There have been in each year. Anything you've got from that, Greg. Well, it's pretty astonishing just how widespread it is. It's literally all over the city. Um You know, from part of why it's gotten more attention is that a lot of Um, it Z hitting areas that don't get a lot of crime. And so that's scary. But there's also some pretty horrifying data for even areas that Have a lot of crying, so I live in Little village and I'm right next to the North Lawndale, which is much of it is the 24 Ford and they have a astonishing amount of Carjackings. And it's especially astonishing because it Zapata it's award with With relatively little population. So 40 Carjackings in that ward go a lot further than you know, 40 Carjackings in. You know the 42nd Ward downtown, which has so many people in it, so it But it is it is a citywide problem, and it is something that every single alderman black, white and Hispanic really cared about. It is really concerned about because they're hearing about it. For sure. And I heard that some of that very passionate city council like us, a committee meeting on Carjacking, trying to bring folks together the victims who spoke who had been victims of Carjacking themselves and others. I mean, just sort of a passionate cry for help here. And I wonder if when you look at what the city has proposed right now, if you think it makes a difference, are they adding some more cops created to these Carjacking units and some other things they're doing. That's a great question, you know, obviously more. More help is always good, whether or not but you know if you put in a bunch of health and you don't have a strategy, or you don't have a clear strategy that's also um not helpful. So you know, I would guess that the police Department would say We have a pretty good strategy. I think that, um the results will They're out whether that's true, but obviously, um, you know, the other end of that is saying we're gonna put 40 more cops. You know, that's not even one per ward and so It's not. Ah, that is a relatively low amount. But you know what else are they gonna say? Right? They're not going to say Well, we're working on it. They need to, uh We need the get the situation under control. First of all, because it is It is actually a real problem. And then they have the political problem of wanting the look like they're trying to get it under control, which is A very important issue for them. Yeah, No, no doubt about that, And I mean, look, it's it is It's an important issue for all of us that I applaud them for trying to do something. Whether this is a solution that will start. We'll start seeing a difference. I don't know are we had like 200 Carjackings for the month. That's the last estimate. I heard. Yes, It's absolutely crazy out there and people are people are concerned people from all put. The other thing is people also from all political ideologies and from all Walks of life. I had a friend who I don't think it's somebody who you know lives. An exaggerated fear of Chicago was telling me that you know there. He just got a new car for their household and they're concerned about you know, what is that going to attract the carjacker? And then they have Ah, young kid, And so, um So it is a real big concern out there and it's really you know, it's also The other thing about, you know, just adding some more. Some cops, for that is is we still have a violence problem dead that was out of control last year. I don't know quite what? How the numbers add up, but it's so something to keep Avenger. So CPD has his hands full. Yeah, no doubt about that. Greg Pratt. Thank you. Thanks for the time this afternoon. Always like hearing from you. Thank you. Gregory Print.

"You've been writing about the Kyle Rittenhouse story last summer. He was in Kenosha. It was in July, right? August August. He was part of that scene. He was up there is a vigilante. If you will to protect the properties is the city was burning. And as he got into a couple of confrontations, he ended up shooting people. Now he's uh What are the charges against him right now? Catch me up on that. He's charged with various things, the most serious charge and you know, the most serious charge possible is murder on day. There are a host of what you might describe his sort of lesser but still violent felony charges, and there's a misdemeanor gun charge that pertains to his possession of the air. Popped up in the news a week or so ago, when lucky him. He became sort of a cause celebre and $2 million was raised to get him out of jail, right? Yeah. He was bailed on in $2 million that was raised by his attorney East in part by his legal team, some of it through appeals to sort of what you describe his gun rights groups and people on the right. Yeah. I guess they see him as their cause since he was using a weapon to defend himself, and that's what the second Amendment for many people is all about. So now he's out and then, but he lives in Illinois, right? Um, he had prior to the shooting lived in Antioch after he was bailed out. He has been at a location that's not been publicly disclosed. But his attorney said, so Maybe it's Wisconsin. Maybe it's Illinois. But there he was seen in a bar in Wisconsin, flashing a white supremacist sign with people who evidently we're of a like mind. You saw it on their T shirts. You saw it on the signs, and you heard it in a song they were singing serenading him that is often sung by white nationalists. Correct. Um, that was that what you're talking about stems from the filing by prosecutors that alleged you know that used stills from a bar video is what was publicly disclosed that showed Kyle giving what you describe is be okay sign, which is sort of been appropriated by certain white supremacist groups. And, yeah, he was serenaded by this song from what I believe is the Broadway version of the Disney Movie LADN proud of you. Boy, which is the theme song Her sort of, I guess, also adopted as a kind of theme song for the Proud Boys, which is an extremist street fighting group. Um, his a turn. Mark Richards in Wisconsin responded, You know, the prosecutors filed this motion because they hope to add conditions of his release, preventing him from associating with any extremist groups from showing the symbols that would be affiliated with Those kind of sentiments and his attorney said. We are fine with that because he doesn't In short, He doesn't have any ties to any extremist groups. So go ahead and institute those conditions and projected so. And so so can he drink? He was 18 when he was in that bar And I guess in Wisconsin, if you with the family member of parent you get to legally drink, so say his mom's in the bar with him in the proud boys. He's legally able to drink there, right. Yes. A native of Janesville, Wisconsin. Yes, that is the law And the judge. Um, the judge did bar and from drinking alcohol, which again over no objection from his attorney. So I'm gonna just play to link. So then the Tribune was able to get the video of when he was arrested. This is the Kenosha police who've come down to Illinois. Question, Kyle, right? Yeah, but it's about four hours of video here is just too little sound bites going to play the first one l a little charge. They're gonna charge out keys..

Defense officials say they're worried about an insider attack or other threat.

Governor Pritzker says there have been no direct threats. A few small protests took place today outside or yesterday that is outside state houses across the country. In Michigan, police say about 25 protesters gathered outside the capital. Somewhere armed with rifles. At least 19 states have deployed the national Guards help protect their capitals. The presidents of Chicago's Fraternal Order of Police John Kittens era is speaking out against the recent crime reform bill that was passed in Springfield this week. He's encouraging officers to seek other career paths as he believes the bill will prevent them from doing their jobs. My message to them is if you have the ability to leave, you might want to start making plans. Whether it's whether pension or without if you have other options, you should start exploring them. The writing is on the wall. They do not want police anywhere in this state. The bill calls for greater police accountability and will end the cash bail system in Illinois in 2023, Illinois.
