  • Dadville with Dave Barnes and Jon McLaughlin - Dan Wilson: Awesomeness Fatigue

    This week, the legendary Dan Wilson joins Dadville from "the Minneapolis of California." You surely know Dan from the many, many, many hits he's written for The Chicks, Adele, Chris Stapleton, and dozens of others. Oh yeah, he's also behind one of the biggest hits of the '90s, "Closing Time." We unpack Dan's incredible career, from his time in Trip Shakespeare and Semisonic to his ridiculously long list of songwriting and production credits, and his new instrumental piano album, 'Goodnight, Los Angeles.' 

    Plus, discover what his 17-year-old jazz bass self would think of it all ("What happened to the bass?") and why parenthood is the ultimate "helpful constraint."

  • The Paula Faris Show - Why You Need Friends Who Aren’t Like You (with Dan Harris)

    From theological debates to newsroom banter, Dan Harris and I couldn't be more different—I grew up in a Midwest Conservative Christian home, while Dan grew up as an East Coast Liberal who had a Bar Mitzvah for the money (his words!). But our unlikely friendship as co-anchors on Good Morning America became a lesson in empathy, curiosity, and the beauty of bridging divides.

    In this candid and hilarious reunion, Dan and I talk about media bias, religious differences, and how pushing each other made us better journalists—and better people. It’s a behind-the-scenes look at what happens when you stop avoiding the hard conversations and start leaning in and the science behind the importance of having people in our lives who are different from us. 

    From Bar Mitzvahs to Bible studies, —this episode will make you laugh, reflect, and maybe even text a friend who sees the world a little differently than you do.

  • The Disciples Journal - Why God Doesn’t Want to Erase Your Past (and What He Does Instead)

    What if God doesn’t want to erase your past… but redeem it?

    In this first episode of our June series, Identity in Christ, I’m diving into 2 Corinthians 5:17—“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, they are a new creation.” But what does that actually mean for your everyday life? And what does it reveal about God’s heart?

    We’re unpacking why your past doesn’t disqualify you, how God meets you in the darkest places, and why real transformation isn’t about pretending you’ve never messed up—it’s about knowing who’s holding your story now.

    If this resonates with you, After God’s Heart, my daily devotional podcast on Patreon, is where we go even deeper into verses just like this—every single day. It's not about more information; it's about learning how to walk with God in real time and see His heart in every word of Scripture.

    You can even try it out free for 7 days

  • That Sounds Fun with Annie F. Downs - The Heart of Home Town: How Ben and Erin Napier Followed God’s Plan- Episode 985

    Today on the show, we’re answering the question, “What should I take with me from spring into summer?” and y’all are in for a TREAT. You’ve been asking for these guests for a long time and today my new friends Ben and Erin Napier from the show HGTV’s Home Town and Home Town Takeover are here. You’re going to love getting to know them and hearing how their work and their shows have not only revitalized families, but entire towns. You know we love talking about revival around here, and we’re going there today. The work God’s put in front of them isn’t just captivating millions on TV, it’s changing the future of small towns. 

    If you’re following along in your TSF Seasons Guidebook, we’re on page 57. We’re getting so close to the official start of summer, which means new guidebook pages are coming!

    • The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast - 1KHO 498: How to Develop Brains That Are Capable of Enjoying Success | Dr. William Stixrud and Ned Johnson, What Do You Say?

      If our kids are achieving but not thriving, what are we actually working toward?

      In this profoundly helpful and eye-opening conversation, Ned Johnson and Dr. William Stixrud—authors of What Do You Say? and The Self-Driven Child—return to share powerful insights about raising kids who can handle stress, stay motivated, and actually enjoy their lives. We talk about what it means to be a non-anxious presence, how our words and behaviors shape our children’s mental health, and why the “Yale or fail” mindset is doing far more harm than good.

      Packed with specific phrases to use (and avoid), guidance on school pressure and tracking apps, and wisdom from decades of working with anxious families, this episode offers a better way forward. If you’ve ever worried about whether you're doing enough—or doing it right—this one will help you exhale and refocus on what really matters: raising kids with resilient brains, meaningful relationships, and the capacity to experience joy.
