The Denims episodes

  • Episode 23-The Christ
    I am back in school now, and everything is going great. I anticipate the classes being a little more challenging, as they should be, but I am ready for the challenge! In this week's episode, I discuss one of the more basic and essential concepts of the Unity belief system, the Christ. Hint: Jesus isn't the only one!

  • Episode 22-Net Neutrality-Part Deux
    Due to the better sound quality of my mic, I have recorded new voiceovers for the intro, contact and outro parts of my show. Hopefully, these sound better than the old ones. My life is going great, so I'll get to the point. I talked about net neutrality one time before, and since then, the House of Representatives has passed a bill that would gut net neutrality and slow or block access to websites purely at the discretion of the telecommunications companies.This bill would also take away local communities' ability to negotiate with cable companies for their franchises. This bill has been either ignored or misrepresented by mainstream media, and only the blogsphere and podosphere have been talking facts.Join in the fight to keep the net neutral by contacting your Senators and voting. You still have the power in this country; use it or lose it! Music today: "God Save the Internet" by The Broadband.

  • Episode 21-Affirmative Prayer
    Everything is going great here. I am still out of school and the job is going great. I will be in summer school, due to the way this accelerated degree program is set up. I don't mind that, since it will be only two more terms and I will be a college graduate. Yeehaw! This week, I received some guidance to go back to a more spiritual episode and discuss the idea of affirmative prayer. It's different from the prayer most people may have learned, and it is a powerful tool for creating the kind of life you want to have. Listen in for more.

  • Episode 20-The Federal Marriage Amendment
    Sorry this episode was late. I was a busy person this past week, but things should be slower come next week. I am done with school for a couple of weeks, and I am looking forward to the break. The job is going great, and I am enjoying doing what I am doing. The Federal Marriage Amendment was defeated in the US Senate this past week, only getting 50 votes out of the required 67 to send it to the House. What's more, two Sentors, Arlen Specter (R-PA) and Judd Gregg (R-NH) changed from a "yes" to a "no" since the last time this worthless amendment came up for a vote.Many thanks to both of my Senators, Carl Levin (D-MI) and Debbie Stabenow (D-MI), who also voted "no" on this worthless amendment!This amendment vote is nothing but a political strategy to get a checklist of who voted which way so that the Religious Right can target the "no" voters with negative campaigning and publicity. The House of Representatives is supposed to vote on a similar amendment soon, and it is not expected to pass, but we must make sure. Contact your representative and tell him/her you don't want discrimination written into the Supreme Law of the Land. G'day to any Aussies who might be listening in, as the podcast was added to a directory in the land of Oz.

  • Episode 16-The Campaign to Preserve Net Neutrality
    We have the privilege of accessing practically any content anywhere on the internet, provided the owner of that content has granted permission for access. No internet service provider has the right to block or slow down access to that content in favor of any other content. This is known as "net neutrality" and it is something that internet users take for granted. This freedom is in danger, and could be eliminated if a bill in the US Congress, HR5252, becomes law. This bill would give ISPs the right to block or slow access to any site for any reason, or to charge higher fees for faster access. Please help all of us stop this takeover of the internet by corporate America by signing the online petition at http://civic.moveon.org/save_the_internet. Thanks for listening and Stay Powerful!

  • Episode 15-The Letter to the President
    Thanks to everybody for your concern about my partner. He was able to come home from the hospital on the same day, and he has recovered well from his surgery. He was part of an experimental drug test to check the efficacy of a new drug to help reduce hardening of the arteries. We don't know if he had the drug or the placebo, but we do know he went from 70% blockage to 50% blockage during the course of the study! Thank you, God!

  • Episode 14-The Hospital Visit

    The partner was in the hospital for an angiogram, and I was not sure how much time I would have to do a studio recording, so this is my first remote podcast. I recorded the bulk of this in the cafeteria in St. Mary's Hospital in Saginaw.

    I discuss the idea of healing and releasing thoughts that can keep one from realizing the true nature of the body--that of perfect health.

    I added in some extra podsafe music to keep you entertained.

    You can send me an Odeo voice mail by clicking on the Odeo button on my Libsyn page. You do not have to be a member of Odeo, and there is no charge for the Odeo voicemail.
