SILY 702- System Failure

Today I’m sharing something I’ve never talked about publicly. It’s a story I almost waited to tell, because honestly, we’re still in the middle of it. But I’ve come to believe that sometimes the most valuable lessons aren’t the ones you share from the other side of the mountain. They’re the ones you share from the climb.

TSTP 93- The Party

Two terrifying creatures just crashed Dustin’s solo run to the Food Mart, Eleven goes out on a limb to save him, and the gang goes underground to celebrate Nikki’s birthday.

S5E8 Five-Twenty-Ten

We are joined by Ynza for this episode of the podcast as we discuss this awesome episode of Fringe! We enthusiastically share excitement about Blair Brown being back in full force in this episode as well as how great Josh Jackson’s performance is playing a new version of Peter.

SILY 701- Hands of a Father

I want to tell you about a pair of hands. Hands that could lay a straight line of carpet across a living room floor, split a cord of firewood without breaking a sweat, or coax a stubborn CV joint back into place with nothing but basic tools and a whole lot of patience. Those were my dad’s hands.

TSTP 92- Enter the Storm

A blizzard has swallowed Hawkins whole, and the gang is more fractured and in more danger than ever before. In “Enter the Storm” (Chapter Seven), Darrell and Addi break down one of the season’s most intense and emotionally charged episodes yet.

SILY 700- Mountains of Meatloaf

Have you ever looked back at a season of your life that felt like a total waste? The season left you with feelings of frustration and regret? I’ve been thinking about that a lot lately, so you know I had to write a SILY about it.

S4E5 Novation

S4E5 Novation

It’s just us this episode as we take on “Novation,” Peter’s first full episode this season. We reflect on some of the theories that we had back in the day about who was behind the Shapeshifters 2.0 (one of which was surprisingly quite… valid) and how we felt vs. now feel about Peter’s (sort of) return to this timeline.

646- The Year of Breakthrough

646- The Year of Breakthrough

I can’t tell you how many conversations I’ve had with people about NMX 2015. Nearly every conversation I have about it includes someone declaring, “That was the best event ever!”  Why? Surround yourself with a group of friends that will encourage you, stick with you, help you see your blind spots, and give you that necessary encouragement on those hardest of days. Otherwise, you might give up when all your dreams are just outside your grasp accessible via a path you’ve just not yet seen.

645- Ingredients of a Happy Marriage

645- Ingredients of a Happy Marriage

Marriage is not easy. Adding kids into the mix makes it even more challenging. It’s not surprising that between two-thirds and one-half of all marriages in the US end in divorce. This week Kari and I will celebrate 26 years of marriage and we are as happy and as solidly connected as we’ve ever been. Here are what I believe are five key ingredients to a successful marriage, plus a bonus ingredient.

S4E4 Subject 9

S4E4 Subject 9

Subject 9 is a pivotal episode of Fringe marking Peter’s return to the timeline… sort of. We are joined once again this week by the awesome Anna (not Torv) and our discussions touch upon some of the new developments about this timeline revealed in this episode such as different relationships between characters like Olivia and Nina and Walter and Nina (or Viper as you prefer), and we also discuss the incredible performance by the late Chadwick Boseman.

644- Kingdoms in Conflict

644- Kingdoms in Conflict

The word gospel simply means good news. For many of us when we hear the word gospel we think of good news that Jesus came and died to pay the penalty for our sin and provide a way to reconcile us with God. That is indeed good news! That is gospel. We often hear gospel messages about Jesus, but we don’t often hear about the gospel message that Jesus himself preached. Is it possible that we’ve missed the real message of Jesus?
