"GIVE FEEDBACK (or reach out via: https://JosephMLenard.us/contact)" [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2210487/fan_mail/new] CTP (S3E153) Bring Back Standards Exploring more of the fascinating intersection of Activism, Community Engagement, Faith / Religion, Human Nature, Politics, Social Issues, and beyond - all in Biblical perspective We start with a blunt “standards” rant sparked by kids in pajamas at the movie theater and end up in a bigger argument about parenting, boundaries, and what we normalize in public. Then we pivot into a satire song that turns into a serious warning about clickbait, TLDR culture, and why details and context still matter.  • why “let kids be kids” can still require clear public standards  • the difference between helicopter parenting and being hands off  • tough love as teaching right and wrong without excuses  • how entitlement grows when rules never apply  • concerns about adult content pushed on kids and what “age appropriate” should mean  • “Grumpy Old Man’s TV Time” as satire with serious undertones  • media literacy basics: facts, names, dates, context, and reading past headlines  • health realities and the need for rest and self care  SEND US FEEDBACK: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2210487/fan_mail/new  https://tinyurl.com/SubscribeToCTP   CTP Audios: https://tinyurl.com/CTPonBuzzsprout  CTP Videos: https://tinyurl.com/CTPonBITCHUTE  https://tinyurl.com/CTPgear   https://tinyurl.com/JLenardDetroitGear   AI images/videos/audio CTP uses: https://tinyurl.com/GalaxyMagicaAI     https://tinyurl.com/BookPromotionViaFiverr   A Short Story: A Lasting Legacy? book Trailer Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2210487/support] JLenardDetroit SUBSCRIBE [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2210487/supporters/new]- Author [https://TerrorStrikes.info/bestseller], Blogger [https://www.thelibertybeacon.com/?s=Joseph+M+Lenard], Podcaster [https://beforeitsnews.com/politics/2022/11/joseph-m-lenard-joins-savaged-unfiltered-mondays-and-wednesdays-to-talk-mostly-politics-and-more-3276950.html]

CTP (S4E158) Numbers, Spin, And The Truth

"GIVE FEEDBACK (or reach out via: https://JosephMLenard.us/contact)" [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2210487/fan_mail/new] CTP (S4E158) Numbers, Spin, And The Truth We break down how statistics get used as political spin and why the “headline number” on jobs and inflation often hides the real story. We push for fact-based thinking, stronger media literacy, and the habit of asking what a claim leaves out.  • why “lies, damn lies, and statistics” fits modern economic coverage  • how unemployment can rise while real hiring improves  • why labor force participation rate matters more than a single unemployment rate headline  • how “1,000 new jobs” can mean jobs moved across the street  • what real journalism should add after reporting a politician’s claim  • how inflation metrics depend on what’s in the basket of goods  • how gas prices reflect crude, regulation, taxes, and seasonal blends  • why TLDR culture makes misinformation easier to sell  • sponsor reads, links, and ways to support the show  SEND US FEEDBACK: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2210487/fan_mail/new  https://tinyurl.com/SubscribeToCTP   CTP Audios: https://tinyurl.com/CTPonBuzzsprout  CTP Videos: https://tinyurl.com/CTPonBITCHUTE  https://tinyurl.com/CTPgear   https://tinyurl.com/JLenardDetroitGear   AI images/videos/audio CTP uses: https://tinyurl.com/GalaxyMagicaAI     https://tinyurl.com/BookPromotionViaFiverr   - other services: https://fiverr.com/jlenarddetroit   A Short Story: A Lasting Legacy? book Trailer Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2210487/support] JLenardDetroit SUBSCRIBE [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2210487/supporters/new]- Author [https://TerrorStrikes.info/bestseller], Blogger [https://www.thelibertybeacon.com/?s=Joseph+M+Lenard], Podcaster [https://beforeitsnews.com/politics/2022/11/joseph-m-lenard-joins-savaged-unfiltered-mondays-and-wednesdays-to-talk-mostly-politics-and-more-3276950.html]

"GIVE FEEDBACK (or reach out via: https://JosephMLenard.us/contact)" [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2210487/fan_mail/new] CTP (S4EJunSpecial4) Revelation Without Fear Exploring more of the fascinating intersection of Activism, Community Engagement, Faith / Religion, Human Nature, Politics, Social Issues, and beyond - all in Biblical perspective We talk with Shama Stock about reading the Book of Revelation with courage and context so it becomes a source of hope instead of panic. We connect prophecy, spiritual preparedness, and daily discipleship to real-life choices around fear, coercion, and love.  • Shama’s background and the path to deep Bible study  • Leading a Revelation study before feeling ready  • Why Revelation scares people and how to reframe it  • Scripture interpreting Scripture over speculation  • The opening blessing of Revelation and the call to listen  • Mark of the beast concerns and the meaning of buying and selling  • Conviction under pressure and lessons from the pandemic  • Preparedness that still fails without love  • Humility about prophecy and God’s timing  • Situational awareness versus paranoia and panic  • Free will, individuality, and resisting forced sameness  SEND US FEEDBACK: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2210487/fan_mail/new  https://tinyurl.com/SubscribeToCTP   CTP Audios: https://tinyurl.com/CTPonBuzzsprout  CTP Videos: https://tinyurl.com/CTPonBITCHUTE  https://tinyurl.com/CTPgear   https://tinyurl.com/JLenardDetroitGear   AI images/videos/audio CTP uses: https://tinyurl.com/GalaxyMagicaAI     https://tinyurl.com/BookPromotionViaFiverr   A Short Story: A Lasting Legacy? book Trailer Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2210487/support] JLenardDetroit SUBSCRIBE [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2210487/supporters/new]- Author [https://TerrorStrikes.info/bestseller], Blogger [https://www.thelibertybeacon.com/?s=Joseph+M+Lenard], Podcaster [https://beforeitsnews.com/politics/2022/11/joseph-m-lenard-joins-savaged-unfiltered-mondays-and-wednesdays-to-talk-mostly-politics-and-more-3276950.html]

CTP (S4157) Free Speech lessons from the Greek origins

"GIVE FEEDBACK (or reach out via: https://JosephMLenard.us/contact)" [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2210487/fan_mail/new] CTP (S4157) Free Speech lessons from the Greek origins Exploring more of the fascinating intersection of Activism, Community Engagement, Faith / Religion, Human Nature, Politics, Social Issues, and beyond - all in Biblical perspective We make the case that free speech is rooted in logos meaning logic, reason, and truth, not personal fantasy or “my truth.” We tie that idea to fraud, libel, slander, courtroom standards, warrants, and why facts and context have to matter in journalism and public life.  • framing “logos” as the root of meaningful speech  • arguing the First Amendment protects truth-seeking, not fraud  • drawing lines around libel and slander as punishable harms  • insisting justice aims at reality over narratives and gamesmanship  • explaining warrants and exigent circumstances in urgent threats  • calling out spin culture and clipped-quote “journalism”  • repeating the need for details, context, and historical grounding  SEND US FEEDBACK: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2210487/fan_mail/new  https://tinyurl.com/SubscribeToCTP   CTP Audios: https://tinyurl.com/CTPonBuzzsprout  CTP Videos: https://tinyurl.com/CTPonBITCHUTE  https://tinyurl.com/CTPgear   https://tinyurl.com/JLenardDetroitGear   AI images/videos/audio CTP uses: https://tinyurl.com/GalaxyMagicaAI     https://tinyurl.com/BookPromotionViaFiverr   A Short Story: A Lasting Legacy? book Trailer Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2210487/support] JLenardDetroit SUBSCRIBE [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2210487/supporters/new]- Author [https://TerrorStrikes.info/bestseller], Blogger [https://www.thelibertybeacon.com/?s=Joseph+M+Lenard], Podcaster [https://beforeitsnews.com/politics/2022/11/joseph-m-lenard-joins-savaged-unfiltered-mondays-and-wednesdays-to-talk-mostly-politics-and-more-3276950.html]

"GIVE FEEDBACK (or reach out via: https://JosephMLenard.us/contact)" [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2210487/fan_mail/new] CTP (S4EJunSpeical3) Who Does Separation Of Church And State Protect Exploring more of the fascinating intersection of Activism, Community Engagement, Faith / Religion, Human Nature, Politics, Social Issues, and beyond - all in Biblical perspective We sit down with filmmaker Andrew Linn to follow the story of Roger Williams from Puritan exile to Rhode Island founder and to rethink what separation of church and state was meant to do. We argue that liberty of conscience protects faith from government power and that civic ignorance turns a hard-won principle into a modern weapon.  • Andrew’s family name origin and Ellis Island simplifications  • Growing up in Maryland, studying film, settling in West Virginia  • Roger Williams’s banishment and the Massachusetts Bay theocracy  • Rhode Island’s charter and an early model of church state separation  • Freedom of religion versus freedom from religion as competing frameworks  • Taxes to established denominations and the Danbury Baptists context  • Ten Commandments debates, history in schools, and civil law limits  • Liberty of conscience as a guard against forced “conversion”  • Christian nationalism concerns and lessons from European sect conflict  • Propaganda and “strongman Christianity” narratives around Russia  • Demoralization, universities, and why civics education matters  • Collectivism, individual responsibility, and e pluribus unum as a lived ideal  www.churchandstatedoc.com  Type “church and state documentary” on YouTube to watch it for free  SEND US FEEDBACK: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2210487/fan_mail/new  https://tinyurl.com/SubscribeToCTP   CTP Audios: https://tinyurl.com/CTPonBuzzsprout  CTP Videos: https://tinyurl.com/CTPonBITCHUTE  https://tinyurl.com/CTPgear   https://tinyurl.com/JLenardDetroitGear   AI images/videos/audio CTP uses: https://tinyurl.com/GalaxyMagicaAI     https://tinyurl.com/BookPromotionViaFiverr   A Short Story: A Lasting Legacy? book Trailer Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2210487/support] JLenardDetroit SUBSCRIBE [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2210487/supporters/new]- Author [https://TerrorStrikes.info/bestseller], Blogger [https://www.thelibertybeacon.com/?s=Joseph+M+Lenard], Podcaster [https://beforeitsnews.com/politics/2022/11/joseph-m-lenard-joins-savaged-unfiltered-mondays-and-wednesdays-to-talk-mostly-politics-and-more-3276950.html]

We also lay out a frightening product safety issue at home and why it feels like companies and lawyers only act after someone gets hurt.  • a mislabelled video exclusive and why we leave it as is  • reporting a major security hole and getting bounced between people who cannot escalate  • the 33-minute hold problem and the “call back later” non-solution  • an example of helpful retail support and why it stands out  • a gas stove safety hazard that can release gas too easily  • frustration with product liability help that shows up only after major harm  • why speaking up matters when companies ignore foreseeable risk  SEND US FEEDBACK: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2210487/fan_mail/new  https://tinyurl.com/SubscribeToCTP   CTP Audios: https://tinyurl.com/CTPonBuzzsprout  CTP Videos: https://tinyurl.com/CTPonBITCHUTE  https://tinyurl.com/CTPgear   https://tinyurl.com/JLenardDetroitGear   AI images/videos/audio CTP uses: https://tinyurl.com/GalaxyMagicaAI     https://tinyurl.com/BookPromotionViaFiverr   A Short Story: A Lasting Legacy? book Trailer Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2210487/support] JLenardDetroit SUBSCRIBE [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2210487/supporters/new]- Author [https://TerrorStrikes.info/bestseller], Blogger [https://www.thelibertybeacon.com/?s=Joseph+M+Lenard], Podcaster [https://beforeitsnews.com/politics/2022/11/joseph-m-lenard-joins-savaged-unfiltered-mondays-and-wednesdays-to-talk-mostly-politics-and-more-3276950.html]
