We Took a DNA Test Live on Camera! 😱 | The Edge Ep. 188

iJailed for 52 years, what can we learn from this? | Love in Action 14 | Rico Fogarty

‘Where’s your keys, where’s your phone, where’s your knife ?’   Children navigating their community in fear … carrying weapons…   Are we an aspirational city in Birmingham for our children, what opportunities are there, is there a way out to give hope ?   This is not a race thing and it can happen to anyone. However, the media would have you believe this is a black issue and it’s related to gangs and drugs.   So what can we do? We can not arrest our way out of this … we need a whole system at every systems level… awareness raising, support for parents and carers, early intervention at the right time, opportunities for children, learning through bleed kit training.   This epidemic is not easy to treat … there are deep-rooted issues that we are not addressing and we are only putting sticky plasters on open wounds!

vMaking an Impact: Chasing the One vs. Chasing the Crowd | The Point with Rev David Whyte, Hafsah Godsil & Jared Baldwin

What does it truly mean to make a difference in a culture obsessed with viral metrics? In this special episode of The Point, Reverend David Whyte and Hafsah Godsil sit down with Jared Baldwin, a full-time minister and podcaster visiting all the way from the States, to dive deep into what it means to make a kingdom impact. Jared kicks off the conversation with a powerful look at the lifestyle of Jesus, who went wide in his public ministry but chose to go deep by intimately pouring into the twelve disciples right next to him. In this episode, we unpack: * * * Chasing an Audience vs. Making an Impact: Why chasing fame can be a trap and how the ultimate impact happens in the everyday moments people don't see. * Leaving the 99: Moving past the numbers game of social media and validating your calling through the transformation of just one person. * The Origin of In The Lobby: Jared shares his journey from childhood creative video-making to working as a college resident assistant, where real-life lobby conversations inspired his digital ministry. * Combating the "Ratchet" Noise: Rev David discusses the wrestling matches behind finding his voice and the collective need to push light, truth, and balance onto digital screens. * Salt and Light (Matthew 5:13–16): An in-depth study of why salt cannot exist for itself and how minimizing or shrinking your light hides the truth from those trapped in darkness. * The Hypocrisy Trap: A transparent discussion on why church folk and preachers alike carry the burden of reflecting Christ's transforming power through personal obedience. * Your Media Diet: Two critical questions to ask yourself about who is discipling your brain throughout the week and how to start practically impacting your immediate circle through daily prayer. BREAKING EXCLUSIVE: Jared announces his upcoming third book, No Good Who Met God, sharing a first-time public look into a story of spiritual growth and transformation!

DJI Lito X1 Review & Flight Test: The Ultimate 4K Compact Drone?

Summer is finally here! Roger Moore is joined by guest Dre for an impromptu, two-part episode of Tech Xtra to unbox, set up, and real-world test the brand-new DJI Lito X1 (XD Version).   About This Video: In this episode, the guys move away from heavy cinematic rigs to test the ultimate "consumable creative" tool for tracking fitness, health, and summer adventures. Dre takes on the role of head drone operator as they unbox the Fly More combo, struggle with the initial DJI Flight app activation, and review the footage after putting the drone through its paces. From tracking a local running club in Birmingham to overhead 4K shots at football training and a family birthday barbecue, they break down exactly how this compact drone performs.   Key Features Discussed: * The XD Advantage: Why they chose the premium XD version for its superior sensor and smooth 60fps capabilities. * Intelligent Tracking: How the drone automatically switches positions from behind to in front of you if another player gets too close. * Obstacle Avoidance: Testing the safety features in busy city environments vs. open fields. * The Real Verdict: A solid 9/10 rating from Dre, plus warnings about the digital zoom quality drop and why you should never turn on Sports Mode in the middle of Birmingham City!   Stick around until the very end to watch the live studio takeoff and a 360-degree spin test!   If you enjoyed the energy, make sure to LIKE, SHARE, and SUBSCRIBE to the channel to catch our upcoming gaming show and more tech breakdowns!   #DJILitoX1 #DJILitoXD #DroneUnboxing #TechXtra #AffinityXtra #DJIReview #BirminghamCreators #DroneTrackingMode #4KDroneFootage #TechReview2026
