May 09, 2022 Episode 106: Kenny Wyland | Playing in the political sandbox with my liberal counselor.
Welcome back to the program Parrish The Though listeners.
Today, my guest, back on the show for a third time is Kenny Wyland, self proclaimed liberal, atheist, capitalist geek. We tackle the tug-of-war of understanding within social and political issues between liberals and conservatives. We demostrate it is possible to have decent and civil discussions in spite of the ever widening divide in our country.
Lets's do this!

April 30, 2022 Episode 105: Tina McCafferty | Using our podcasts to ensure America remains the shining city on the hill
My guest today is host of the ever growing podcast, We The People, Our American Stories, Tina McCafferty. Her show focuses on American heros as she sees them, from members of the military, entreprenuers and immigrants, to the every day Joe.
So apparently, today, she thinks I’m a hero of sorts. We introduce our audiences to each other and discuss the reason for each of our podcasts. We also talk about how we both are doing our part to help this great country remain the shining city on the hill. We laugh, we cry as we more fully understand our why.

April 11, 2022 Episode 104: LDS Missionary, Elder Ashton Burgon | Tell me about your ”Sacred Grove” moment.
My guest today is a newly called missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Elder Ashton Burgon.
If you recall, about 7 months ago I had my daughter, Emily on prior to her entering the mission field to Bentonville, Arkansas. Ashton is a good friend of hers.
As part of entering the MTC or Missionary Training Center in Provo, Utah, they are tasked with interviewing someone who has joined the LDS faith and what that journey looked like. I joined the church in August of 1995.
Elder Burgon has been assigned to serve the people in the Independence, Missouri area for the next 14-months.

April 03, 2022 Episode 102: Matt Garlick, Northstar Survival | Beacon of light for those in the storm.
My guest today is Matt Garlick, owner of Northstar Survival in Utah County.
IT'S NO SECRET that the world is in a bit of a scary place right now. With the numerous devastating wildfires, increasing numbers of earthquakes and hurricanes wreaking havoc across the world, and the continuing threat of the COVID-19 pandemic on 2020, we are in a time unlike any other. It is clear, now more than ever, that NOW is the time to prepare.
Despite the fact that countless people have come to this realization, the number of those who have actually taken measures to prepare is barely noticeable. As we looked deeper into why this is, we noticed a common problem. When it came to preparing for potential disasters and adversity, people just didn't know where to begin.
He didn't start this company to simply sell survival kits. He started this company because he's seen the pain, chaos and stress that hit thousands of homes as unexpected disasters and pandemics wreak havoc across the nation, both in a temporal and emotional sense of the word. People need help preparing, and they need it now. Millions of families are so far from being prepared for what is to come, but they deeply desire direction and are in need of guidance.
Because we are deeply passionate about helping these families, we built what we call a HUMAN GUIDANCE SYSTEM, which is going to be critical during future times of need. We aren't just selling survival kits. We are building human beings to be physically, mentally and emotionally prepared.

March 22, 2022 Episode 101: Nathan Sellers | Sight: Can you still see if you lack vision?
Today my guest is author and License Clinical Social Worker, Nathan Sellers. We talk about his new novel/therapy book that reads like a Richard Paul Evans story. The life lessons learned by the story’s main character can connect with all of us as we play in the arena of life. Book Summary: Robert’s life as an art restorer is ripped away when he is blinded in an untimely accident. Depressed at the loss of his career and connection to his passion, he drowns in darkness. After his death years later, he is shocked to arrive in the afterlife still blind. Paradigms are shattered as he comes to understand that to have his sight restored he will need to challenge his pessimistic, myopic focus and “see” what he failed to see in life, even before he went blind. Will he spend eternity in a self-inflicted , or will he abandon his lifelong blindness to see Heaven? SIGHT takes you on a journey through pain, trauma, bitterness, and resentment to discover the power of forgiveness and healing by opening one’s eyes to the good that always exists in the world around you.
