EP 184: How to be authentically intelligent & raise smart kids in the AI age with Andrew Pudewa Jun 18, 2025

What should you prioritize in your child’s education? The answer may surprise you!

We dive in with Andrew Pudewa the founder of IEW to discuss the role of reading, writing and grammar in this current AI age. Where are our efforts best placed with such a rapidly changing landscape? We also discuss school funding as the fallback excuse for poor academic achievement, but is it really the problem? Andrew closes by giving us a rundown of what he would prioritize if he were raising kids in 2025.

This is our second time interviewing Andrew, check out Episode # 119: https://open.spotify.com/show 5m4rUKxidYuktJbdQI6Dz4

EP 183: Data Centers, AI & the environment: Building with vision vs just building your bank account Jun 04, 2025

Beauty, wind turbines, data centers, climate change, and A.I.?!

I’m sure it doesn’t seem like any of those things could possibly be related but we believe it’s all connected.

In today’s episode we sit down with a couple of things in mind to discuss and see where the conversation takes us. These conversations rarely end with us able to give you an answer but the questions are so important.

Are you willing to be left behind?

What is the vision you have for your life?

Do you want to be a brick layer or cathedral builder?

When the answers to our questions are money or comfort/ease…

A.I. is here and this is something we’ve been talking about for a while. Below we’ve linked past episodes where we’ve touched on artificial intelligence, transhumanism, Davos, digital ID, and more.

EP 182: Revisiting “the village” with your comments, Joe Biden’s decline, Casey Means & psychedelics May 21, 2025

Raising children and the family dynamic, in general, looks different than it used to. Heading to college put physical distance between parents and children even after college.

Today we continue the discussion surrounding ‘the village’. Who is it? What is it? Where has it gone?

Has the increase in technology and time spent on social media started to replace more of our in-person relationships?

The older generation has purpose and wisdom but do they feel free to share?

At the very end we sprinkle in a couple current events, including: Joe Bidens cognitive decline (yes, we can acknowledge it now). Some thoughts on Trump’s pick for Surgeon General, Casey Means. And we’ll end with Rita’s reminder to be watching the topics of psychedelics and AI!

EP 181: Our most important guest(s) to date… Q&A with our KIDS May 07, 2025

*This episode would be worth watching on YouTube for the especially cute little 2yo who makes an appearance at the very beginning*

Today’s episode was so much fun! You’ll get to know us as mothers a little bit better as we sit down with all the kids for a little Q&A.

You’ll hear from Rita’s 3 children (2 girls and a little boy), 14yo, 11yo, and 2yo. & Cecily’s 3 children (2 boys and a girl), 13yo, 11yo, and 9yo.

They share their favorite books and series, school subjects and curriculum, how they feel about being homeschooled, their favorite things about mom and dad and the things they do that drive mom and dad crazy! We’ll touch on Bigfoot, favorite weapons, housing prices, and so much more!

Come for Weston’s hilarious quips and stay to hear the debate about how many times per day/week we should be brushing our teeth!

GUEST:

Rita’s and Cecily’s kids!

EP 179: The declared war on children, when the church hides abuse - Ginny Yurich, 1000 Hours Outside Apr 16, 2025

Ginny Yurich from 1000 Hours Outside is back with us and the bulk of this episode is spent on the sobering topic of “church hurt.” Ginny shares her family’s very personal and painful experience with being dismissed from their church after confronting inappropriate behavior within youth leadership. This behavior, as it turns out was predatory and linked to grooming.

She generously shares what they’ve learned, as well as resources and encouragement for anyone that may find themselves in a similar situation.

The first part of the episode is classic Ginny wisdom. She shares that she’s been told to ‘stay in her lane’ but discovered, the simple concept of getting outside has encompassed so much more than just that. Spending time outside changed the trajectory of mothering for her and development for her children; physical, emotional, spiritual, social and cognitive. Ginny has allowed her zeal for reading and growth to lead her into so many more ‘lanes’ than just that of getting outside.

Thank you, Ginny for sharing this personal story so that it may help others.

EP 178: Strength, Femininity & Self-Defense with Amber Landry Apr 09, 2025

You may have found Amber Landry because you wanted to learn about self-defense but you’ll leave taking radical ownership of your life.

Part of Ambers focus is on situational awareness; having to be present in the moment and ultimately seeing the beauty in this world. Her tagline, Eyes Up Buttercup, reminds us to do just that, look up and be present.

We absolutely loved this conversation with Amber on practicing critical thinking, learning practical skills, and being aware, not afraid.

EP 177: Is technology actually making life easier? Lessons from Lent & 1923-the series Apr 02, 2025

When is the last time you took a walk, shower, car ride or even folded laundry without filling your time with an audio book or podcast? When is the last time you contemplated instead of consumed?

In todays’ episode we’ll discuss whether modern technology and conveniences have actually freed up more time for the things that are most important, faith and family.

We hope this episode encourages you to slow down and in slowing down, make room to hear Gods voice well beyond this season of Lent.

EP 176: Modern Health, Timeless Practices & how wellness personalities gate-keep lifesaving info Mar 26, 2025

In today’s episode, Rita was able to sit down in person with a friend. Jessica Alford, an Integrative Nurse Practitioner, covers everything from the “gate-keeping” of information within the wellness community to Ozempic, the pro-metabolic movement, Ray Peat, psychiatric med use, and Bryan Johnson’s goal to live forever.

We once again find ourselves questioning things from a philosophical standpoint.

What a human is?

What were our bodies made to do?

Who made them?

EP 171: Can you defend your faith? Worldview and knowing what you believe and why with Shanda Fulbright Feb 19, 2025

It only takes one conversation with Shanda to know that she not only talks the talk but walks the walk.

Shanda Fulbright, of Her Faith Inspires, recognizes that the amount of time we have to help form our children’s worldview is limited.

Through her website, podcast, and courses, Shanda is giving us the resources to set a solid biblical foundation for ourselves and our children.

Shanda takes cultural issues and applies them to biblical truth.

In today’s culture, it’s never been more important to feel confident in what we believe and why we believe it.

EP 169: New Age, Psychedelics & Salvation with Ashley Lande Feb 05, 2025

Are psychedelics the cure for PTSD & key to mental health? Did you know that there are more people using psychedelics now than in the 60’s? If you weren’t aware, this is a major cultural trend. Joe Rogan, RFK Jr., and Shawn Ryan are all promoting their use.

Psychedelics have quietly entered the chat and today’s conversation, like so many, will encourage you to give thought to the potential dangers of something that’s being sold to us as another possible ‘cure.’

Listen as Ashley Lande, author of The Thing That Would Make Everything Okay Forever, shares her history with psychedelics and how her use of them actually ended up drawing her to Christ.

This is a can’t miss episode. Brian McConaghy joins us for an incredible conversation about the work he does to combat human trafficking, as well as support the victims of that devastating crime.

His life reads like a movie… from the dangerous streets of Ireland as a child, to forensic work in Vancouver on some of the most gruesome cases, to Cambodia to rescue and support the most vulnerable… it’s unlike the life most people live, but for him it’s just every day.

Brian is filled with wisdom and a true love for Jesus that pours out of him in the words he says and the actions of his life.

He blends his values into his art, and in this conversation we go deep into politics, the election, family, art and beyond.

EP 158: If not Christians then who? Elections, culture & apologetics with Dr. Frank Turek Oct 30, 2024

If Christians don’t engage in politics who exactly are we leaving law making up to? Do we want America to continue to move away from God’s design, or do we want to assist in bringing the Kingdom to the culture?

Dr. Frank Turek takes us through a Christian perspective on Christian involvement in politics and voting. We also discuss how legislation follows morality, how morality follows legislation, and a host of other difficult and important questions about Christian beliefs.

EP 157: Brain Death & Organ Donation… When is a person really dead? with Heidi Klessig, MD Oct 23, 2024

Organ donation is always a universal good... right? This conversation is the type that has the potential to completely challenge previously held beliefs. Are brain-dead patients TRULY brain dead? Are the organs being harvested from someone who REALLY has no life left in them? Heidi Klessig, MD, tells us her own story and how she came to have her own beliefs challenged, and explains why she is now dedicated to the informed consent of all registered organ donors, those considering donating their organs, their families, and the recipients of transplanted organs. The question we all really need to ask is... When is somebody truly dead?

EP 156: Just The Inserts - no longer anonymous Oct 16, 2024

Just The Inserts isn’t anonymous anymore… today we’re introducing Alexandra to you, and you’re getting to see her face for the first time.

This is our second interview with her (first episode linked below). In this interview we go even deeper than the first time, discussing the RSV shot the CVD/flu shot mash-up, mRNA products, and a hard look at the Vitamin K product that babies get on their first day of life.

As always in conversation with Alexandra, informed consent is paramount. We speak to the value of people being provided with all the information they need in order to make an informed decision, and discuss the need for that decision to be respected regardless of what that decision ends up being.

Order sets/standing orders are discussed in detail, the impact of 2020 on the medical community at large, and the relationship between authority and responsibility is fully dissected.

We end talking a bit more about her new book, Well Considered, a wonderful informed consent resource.

This is a CAN’T MISS episode that you’ll want to be sure to share.

EP 154: Are we missing our own memories? Phone dependency & human relationships with Joey Odom Oct 02, 2024

"The problem was that I had a relationship with a device." This conversation with Joey Odom of Aro is hard-hitting. We discuss some difficult statistics about average phone usage, the dependency we have, and the impact it's having on the next generation, the relationships we're in, and our own souls. It is also filled with hope and clear actionable steps so that you don't stay stuck and can make a change in your life for the good of those you love. This is worth a listen for absolutely everyone, as we are all either in a relationship with our phones or are close to someone who is.

EP 153: Coffee Shop Talk: homeschool, echo chambers, AI & praying more than raging Sep 25, 2024

In this episode, Cecily and Rita sit down to chat about entering new seasons, the start of the homeschool year, and the true and unique blessing of parenting in this cultural moment.

We discuss the importance of protecting which memories you hold onto (hopefully they're yours!), the importance of getting OUT of the echo chamber, equipping people with information and then allowing the freedom and grace for them to make their own choice, and of course, we get in some talk on AI.

In this episode we also talk about our desire that more people would be praying than raging and dissect the distinct linguistic differences between "gal" and "chick" and determine the correct usage for each term. That last bit is serious stuff.

EP 152: Should I Vote? Red Pilled, Black Pilled & Elections in the Midst of Corruption with Leah Wilson of Stand for Health Freedom Sep 18, 2024

There's a growing movement within the Health Freedom community to stop participating in elections. Leah Wilson's daily work with Stand for Health Freedom daily allows her to powerfully articulate on the topic. She sees the results of voting/voter involvement in a way others who are casually involved may not.

We'll discuss:

The power of involvement in local elections but also, do national elections still matter?

Common repeated statements surrounding voting... they're catchy, but are they true?

...It’s all theater, It’s a selection not an election, We don’t participate in the government of this world...we belong to the kingdom of heaven, I put faith in God not in man, Two wings same bird, The candidates are ALL awful, My vote doesn’t count, it’s not worth it anymore (either because of corruption/solidly red or blue state), It “feels” empowering

We talk through a few stats from the 2020 election & poll I took on Instagram

We touch on the Jones Plantation movie and the idea of sovereign citizens.

EP 150: Why do Christians believe, say and think that? Q&A with Mark Clark Sep 04, 2024

This conversation is all about answering your questions about the Christian faith, Christians, and the church!

Bringing his unique perspective as a Canadian who re-located to the USA in 2021, Mark Clark takes the questions you submitted. Starting off with a comparison of culture (both church culture and the broader culture) in the USA and Canada, we then jump into your questions.

Questions like these (and many more!):

Why do Christians believe once saved always saved? How can the church be trusted post covid lockdowns? What’s the scoop with the One World Church in Dubai? What about home churches? What’s the deal with different ways of handling baptism? And spiciest of all… someone wanted to know how Christians can vote Democrat. Buckle up. We’re going there.

EP 149: Food Supply # 5 | It's complicated: will ESG investments control food, is oil renewable, worldview & more on Bill Gates Jun 26, 2024

Investors with trillions of dollars and nothing to do with farming could end up controlling how food is produced start, to finish. More Bill Gates shenanigans... the guy will develop a vaccine for absolutely everything. Is oil actually a finite resource? Everything we have currently was developed from resources we've always had... think about it and more from White Oak Pastures.

This final episode of our 5 part series on Food Supply solidifies the complexity of the topic as we hash out our thoughts with you.

EP 148: Food Supply # 4 | What's in your Milk? Hormones, Homogenization, Government Production Quotas & Knowing your Farmer Jun 19, 2024

Today we talk to the owners of 2 dairy farms - a raw milk micro dairy in Tennessee & an organic dairy farmer and cheese processor in BC, Canada. We invited a conventional dairy farmer to add perspective, but they declined. There’s a lot of buzz on the internet about raw milk but that’s not the whole story. We explain pasteurization, homogenization, nutritional value, how cows are fed & we discuss hormone use. In this series, we’re taking you deep into the complicated world of your food supply. Whether it’s a steak, salad or slice of bread… there’s a lot happening in the process of getting what you eat to your table and you should know about it. Who owns the farmland? Who is growing your food? Do we have a secure food supply, is our food safe and are we stewarding the land and animals well in the process? In this 5-part series we’re pulling back the curtain and answering those questions.

EP 147: Food Supply # 3 | Why is Bill Gates the Largest Farmland Owner? A Lender, a Legislator, and a Farmer Discuss Jun 12, 2024

You’ve likely heard that Bill Gates is the largest farmland owner in the USA. That creates a lot of buzz and, quite frankly, it scares people. But that’s usually where the conversation ends. In this episode, we cover the barriers to people actually farming the land and hanging onto it.

Today we talk to Natasha Cox, the regional Vice President of farm Credit mid-America, Rita’s husband, Levi Rogers, who is a 6th generation farmer, and Mary Miller a United States Congresswoman. We get into farmland prices, taxation, the climate agenda, China, and foreign-owned land.

In this series, we’re taking you deep into the complicated world of your food supply. Whether it’s a steak, salad or slice of bread… there’s a lot happening in the process of getting what you eat to your table and you should know about it.

EP 146: Food Supply # 2 | Foreign Beef, Deceptive Marketing and mRNA with Bill Bullard of R-Calf & Rich Brazil, DVM Jun 05, 2024

Today we talk to the Bill Bullard - the CEO of R-Calf. R-CALF USA is the largest producer-only membership-based organization that exclusively represents U.S. cattle and sheep producers on domestic and international trade and marketing issues and Rich Brazil a long-time large animal veterinarian.

We cover what’s in your food: Is it safe? Is the information even available for you to make that determination? And as for the information that is available to you - is it accurate or deceptive? Bill gives us excellent insight into meat imports, labeling, the consolidation of meat production in America & the dangers of it.

Rich explains the shady nature of the green agenda as applied to ranching, tapping into the potential of ulterior motives. We know people have concerns about mRNA vaccine usage in meat animals they’ll eventually consume. We cover this in a way that allows you to be the decision maker.

In this series, we’re taking you deep into the complicated world of your food supply. Whether it’s a steak, salad or slice of bread… there’s a lot happening in the process of getting what you eat to your table and you should know about it.

Who owns the farmland? Who is growing your food? Do we have a secure food supply, is our food safe and are we stewarding the land and animals well in the process? In this 5 part series We’re pulling back the curtain and answering those questions.

EP 145: Food Supply # 1 | Regenerative Farming & the Climate Agenda with Jason Rowntree of MSU & Will Harris of White Oak Pastures May 29, 2024

We’re taking you deep into the complicated world of your food supply. Whether it’s a steak, salad or slice of bread… there’s a lot happening in the process of getting what you eat to your table and you should know about it.

Regenerative farming is a catching phrase. It sounds wonderful but what does it mean? And walked out, what does it actually look like for both farmers and consumers? In this opening episode we first talk to Jason Rountree, a professor of Animal Science at Michigan State University, where he is the Charles Stewart Mott Distinguished Professor for Sustainable Agriculture. Next, we speak to the well-known regenerative farmer Will Harris of White Oak Pastures.

We get into food production, and subsequently, the healthfulness and quality of our food… what it all ideally would look like and where farming (again, ideally) is moving. But every ideal has challenges. You’ll find this topic is no doubt a complex one. This first episode strikes a chord on many themes that will be discussed throughout the entire 5-week series… don’t miss an episode.

EP 143: COVID - Yes, that really happened. And it’s STILL happening. Mar 04, 2024

4 years ago, the world turned upside down… and it hasn’t really righted itself. We take a walk down memory lane and reminisce about some of the absolute CRAZINESS that happened over the course of “the Covid era.” Covid policy is still impacting people, as you’ll hear in this episode. We welcome back guest, Elizabeth Liu, and she tells us about the latest battle they’re fighting… no longer from China, but from Singapore as she fights to get her and her family back to her home country of the USA.

EP 141: Oil In Your Lamp with Jess Sowards of Roots and Refuge Feb 19, 2024

In this episode, we’re joined by Jessica Sowards of Roots and Refuge. This is a must-listen episode. There is something for EVERYONE in this and so much gospel truth and encouragement. We talked about big dreaming with your spouse, and what it’s like having a platform as a Christian. We talked about surrender and God’s plans always being superior to ours.

We’re chatting with Melissa Kupsch of Remedy Collective, known as @thathomeopath on Instagram. While homeopathy might be a bit unknown for us prior to this conversation, I believe we can all agree that we need alternatives to the sick care system most people are trying to function in. Melissa tells us the personal reason she got started in homeopathy, the foundation of what it is, and how she’s helping people apply it on their journey towards health.

EP 139: Making Mud Pies in a Slum - The Weight of Glory CS Lewis Feb 05, 2024

Are our human desires too strong? Or too weak? Are the things that feel like drudgery able to turn into something that we love and find satisfaction in? What is the ultimate reward we are seeking, and are we getting distracted by the things that are just pointers to that ultimate reward? Why do we all desire to be praised? You may be relieved to hear that that desire stems from something much more pure than it often manifests. And there are no ordinary people… there are only immortals. Choose carefully how you interact with those immortals. In this episode we’re discussing the sermon The Weight of Glory by CS Lewis.

We’re joined in this episode by pastor Shawn Vandop of Main Street Church. We throw lots of stuff at him- how everyone, regardless of religion has an end times belief, we talk about a Russell Brand/Brett Weinstein conversation on morality and evolution, and we learn from him about how to boldly stand firm in a hostile world.

EP 131: Revolution, Counter-Revolution & the Grounds for Upheaval with Here are the Headlines, Rachel Reeves Nov 20, 2023

Many think we’re heading for a revolution but the truth is, as Rachel points out, we’re in it deep already. The massive cultural shift and erosion of our moral foundation IS the revolution… what we need is an effective counter-revolution. Listen as we discuss the (already well underway) revolution, read some historical context defining revolution, and think through how the ever push towards blending and homogenization of cultures leaves us with no culture at all-pushing us to a revolution. What does a counter-revolution look like? Are we strong enough to revolve the opposite direction?

EP 130: The New Trail of Tears with Naomi Schaefer Riley Nov 13, 2023

This episode is about the state of affairs on reserves and reservations in the USA and Canada. We talk with Naomi Schaefer Riley about her book, The New Trail of Tears, and about the reality that Native Americans and indigenous people have the highest addiction, suicide, abuse and poverty rates of any racial group in America. She details how property rights, autonomy, and equal legal protection could go a long way in changing the current standard of living. We also dive into education, the bureau of Indian affairs, the Indian child welfare act, colonialism, and how money handed out by the government and tribal leadership contributes to the rhythm of life on a reservation. Be prepared to have ideas questioned as Naomi pushes us to not just look at history as the source of all these issues, but modern day policy and “accepted” thoughts and beliefs as well.

We will be releasing a BONUS episode regarding the history of this region and people groups this week as well, so be on the lookout for that!

EP 126: Losing Our Baby Boy... Rita tells her story Oct 16, 2023

On September 21, 2021 at 20 weeks, we delivered our sweet baby boy who was already with Jesus. It's been a long time coming, telling this story. I know with as close to 100% certainty as one can get in this situation why it happened... incarcerated uterus. His death could have likely been prevented if we had known. I want others to know. Incarcerated uterus is said to be "very rare" but with 25% of women having a retroverted uterus, the fact that another woman had been in with the same issue immediately before my appointment and the fact that doctors and practitioners just don't know anything about it leaves me thinking it's possibly a bit less rare than 'they' think. There's no residual anger, there wasn't any to start with. I just want providers to be educated. I didn't plan on this episode going quite as it did... I'm still unsure that I'm happy I recorded it. I shared more about the pregnancy itself than I planned and forgot to mention several things I'd hoped to. It just feels raw again. I hope this episode educates, encourages you to advocate for yourself, helps you know you aren't alone if you've lost a baby, and for those who thankfully have not - gives you some insight. I will have a blog up by Tuesday morning with links to resources. -Rita SPONSOR: Pretty Little Light Candle Co. https://prettylittlelightcandleco.com Code: BOOMCLAP for 20% off World Watch News: https://gwnews.com/boomclap FIND US: www.theboomclapcommunity.com www.instagram.com/boomclappodcast www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey www.Instagram.com/ritarogersco

EP 121: Informed Birth with "Fierce" Lizzie Bolliger Sep 11, 2023

This episode feels less like an interview and more like a conversation between friends... join us! Pregnancy is not a medical issue that automatically requires intervention, in fact, intervening in what is a natural process is what often puts mom and/or baby at risk. This can happen in or out of the hospital setting, but hospitals in particular are approaching birth as a condition requiring help. Regardless of where you deliver: home, hospital or birth center... YOU need to be in the drivers seat; informed, educated, and ready to advocate for yourself. Husbands included. Lizzie also gives us her take on the Bobbie formula company and their predatory marketing campaign. I ask her thoughts and give mine on sharing birth via IG "live". Always fun chatting with Lizzie.

EP 119: Skipping High School, Imitating the Best People & Other Foreign Concepts with Andrew Pudewa Jul 31, 2023

Reflecting on this conversation, I realized almost every point Andrew hit on turned the opposite direction culture and systems within it tell us to. I found myself thinking sarcastically, “well that’s a foreign concept!” Lower income inspiring creativity, sacrifice to live out your values, the benefit of a large family, ‘skipping’ high school, waiting until kids are developmentally ready instead of pushing academic milestones early, imitating the best people you can find and expressing ideas instead of yourself… it’s all the opposite of what we are told to do but exactly what we all need to hear. Parent or not, listen up. Andrew Pudewa of IEW is imparting wisdom and concepts Cecily and I both could have benefited from hearing before becoming parents.

EP 115: Reviving the Male Role & School vs. Education with Matt Beaudreau Jun 26, 2023

Culturally we've gotten away from males naturally fulfilling the role they were designed to occupy, to the point of actually needing to retrain and cultivate men.

Matt Beaudreau, President of Apogee Strong joins us to discuss this… which naturally leads to the subject of education. Matt and I discuss ADHD and the sad state of medicating kids to suit the classroom, his statement: “we will cross that bridge when we get there is a tough way to parent”, and the difference between asking: “how do I teach my child?” and “ how do I inspire my child to come alongside me for the journey?”.

Wrapping up Matt speaks to the very different but complementary nature of men, women and the roles we fill within the home. He also reveals the White House job he turned down and why… I was curious and had to ask.

EP 114: Elon, AI & Did the American Taxpayer Buy Twitter? Jun 18, 2023

We’re just tossing around thoughts on this episode… thinking out loud. When we look at the unofficial monopoly on EV charging stations, mandate for all vehicle manufacturers to move largely to electric and the subsidies provided by the American taxpayer through the government… it’s interesting to pull together and analyze against what we see of Elon on his ‘free speech’ (censorship lite) Twitter platform. We discuss this along with neuralink gaining FDA approval & the US government updating their AI R&D plan. We also chat about parenting and the beauty of an ordinary life.

EP 113: Pride, Target & Climate Change Jun 12, 2023

There’s no question of where we stand on Pride month or marketing transgenderism to children. It’s wrong & should be called out as wrong. But before going into battle we need to make clear the end goal. Are we really winning from a Christian perspective when we see corporations tuck their tails because profits drop? Is evil really being defeated or just going into hiding?

We discuss our thoughts on the way pride is being handled by Christians. The climate conversation is opened again. If you’re new to the fact that wind and solar are not “clean” or “green” this is a good place to start.

EP 112: Euthanasia and the Right to Freedom of Conscience Jun 05, 2023

We’re talking with Andy Steiger of Apologetics Canada all about the rights and responsibilities of conscience as it relates to MAiD (medical assistance in dying, aka euthanasia). This conversations is deep and wide as we talk about this very important topic. Doctors are on the front lines of the testing ground for morality… we see that in many instances. We discuss how the “guaranteed” rights of conscience are being neglected in pursuit of an ideology that mirrors a very dark history.

EP 109: Students for Life President Kristan Hawkins May 15, 2023

Abortion.... anti-woman, fetus-phobic, comparable to slavery? Kristan Hawkins, president of Students for Life speaks on college campuses with the goal of stirring minds to understand the evil that is abortion. Arguments that are acceptable and even promoted in other cultural scenarios are often meant with push back and sometimes intense anger when used against abortion.

We talk about her campus forums, a particularly interesting statement she made on an interview with Tucker Carlson, the abortion PILL, how abortion is actually anti-woman and more.

EP 108: Emotionalism, Cultural Climate & the Church with Shanda Fulbright May 08, 2023

Emotions are getting in the way. We may not realize it but when you hear what our friend & apologetics teacher Shanda Fulbright has to say, it’s easy to see how both the church and culture at large use emotions and experience to gauge reality… when we should be using truth. Shanda & her family shed the comfort of the life they’d always known in California moving completely across the country to South Carolina. We start by talking about this big move then get into “emotionalism”, “meology”, culture & the church.

EP 107: Fighting for Life & Facing Jail Time, a Non-Christian Pro-Life Perspective with Herb Geraghty May 01, 2023

Herb Geraghty is pro-life & standing up for life to the point that he's been indicted by the DOJ and faces 11 years jail time for violating the FACE Act. Herb is the executive director at Rehumanize International. We talk about how he came to be pro-life, his indictment, typical arguments for and against abortion and what it's like to be such an outsider on the issue of abortion when it comes to his general political leanings.

EP 106: Transhumanism & Pushing Biological Boundaries with Steve Kim Apr 24, 2023

Human enhancement is nothing new, but a future pointing to the unfettered merging of humanity with technology is. Will we one day leave “the human condition” behind? What are the moral implications? Are there any true benefits & what are the risks? Steve Kim examines with us transhumanism, the pushing of biological boundaries and proposes the idea that limits might actually be a gift. This fascinating conversation might sound like sci-fi but it is all very real. We also discuss Steve’s upbringing in South Korea, hear some true stories of how his family was impacted by government overreach, and how all that has lent him to being a proponent of limited government. We wrap up the conversation with a quick discussion on education, and why Steve and his wife have chosen to homeschool… and the difference it has made not only for their kids, but for their whole family.

Alexander Solzhenitsyn was, in our opinions, one of the greatest thinkers, and while he may no longer be living, his thoughts and convictions fit the moment we’re living in. I’m fact… if he was around to see today’s culture, all he’d have to say is… I. TOLD. YOU.

Ep 104: Them Before Us: why we need a children’s rights movement with Katy Faust Apr 10, 2023

This episode is a hard topic to cover as it has capacity to offend but irrefutable facts tied to natural rights are all Katy uses to make her case.

EP 103: Social Pressure Apr 03, 2023

Peer pressure isn’t confined to high-school hallways... it follows us into adulthood. But, we have to be aware enough to identify it.

Today we're discussing how we can be aware of some of the "social conditioning" going on around us, and talking about how we can make sure social pressure doesn't cause us to compromise our values, or the way we live.

We talk through a few different experiments/studies. We will send video of that out to The Boom Clap Community this week!

EP 102: Denied a Transplant with Jenna Riley & Rita shares her recent personal experience with transplant teams Mar 27, 2023

Jenna Riley's father needs a kidney transplant and she has selflessly offered to be a living donor for him. The good news is she is a match. The bad news is the hospital has refused to give him a transplant unless he falls in line with the Covid shot(s). It gets even harder to make sense of the hospital's demand of adherence to this extremely broad non-individualized protocol as she tells their story, gives us his background and recent other major surgeries at the same hospital.

Cecily and I then discuss further, adding in my (Rita's) recent experience with the Barnes and Northwestern transplant teams as my father in law was a lung recipient exactly a year ago. Make no mistake, the care my father in law received and the ability of the Northwestern staff to work together was wonderful, however its the losing of the mind when it came to Covid specifically that cannot be overlooked. Complete lunacy and loss of ability to think.

Using her voice to speak out throughout covid led to colleges using Kristen Nagle's story to deter students from independent thinking. She’s being used as example. Students have been given assignments using her story to stoke fear. Kristen gives us the details, what actually happened January 6th and why critical thinking is something the medical industry fears. We get into the state of the medical system, it’s future and a bit of banter & opinion some “big names” like Jordan Peterson now speaking out.

EP 99: Pregnancy & Birth... Answering all your questions Mar 06, 2023

I'm 35 weeks and giving you the details on the things you want to know. Several of you asked if I'd be willing to share pregnancy particulars and delivery plans. So, I put it out to you and let you tell me what specifically you wanted to hear about. Today, I read your questions... from being pregnant and "older" to vaccines and birth practices then answer, on the spot Q & A style. The moment we announced we were expecting again you all came with so much love and support. Truly, we are thankful for every prayer, well wish and kind word. We are also just very thankful for this baby.

BONUS EP 98: Criminalizing Administration of mRNA Vaccines... What happened to medical freedom? Keeping our eyes on the right fight. Mar 03, 2023

We want liberty & less government overreach... unless that overreach comes in a package we tend to agree with? Two Idaho politicians have introduced legislation to make giving an mRNA vaccine a misdemeanor. I polled my audience where more were for this legislation than against. Let's set aside our feelings about the vaccine and evaluate what a law like this actually means. What does this open the door for when people we disagree with are legislating? Most importantly, let's not forget where the real fight lies. This is a truly important, broadly applicable conversation.

EP 97: The Road Less Traveled + what you need to Understand about CMS & Mandates, Vaccine Bills, and a Deeply Concerning BC School Board Meeting Feb 27, 2023

The "road less traveled". Many of us think we are on it, almost everyone wants to be on it. But when we reflect upon how that actually looks. Less traveled might mean harder, sacrificing personal gain, being misunderstood etc. Less traveled isn't the same road/opposite direction. It's a different road altogether.

We discuss 3 Bills on the table that aren't actually getting much attention in the news. One US Federal bill to end the healthcare worker vaccine mandate and how CMS leaves healthcare workers as a commodity in our partially socialized medical system. A bill proposed in Idaho to criminalize giving mRNA injections and another state bill to add upon the "domestic terrorism" discussion that was started federally for "spreading mal-dis and misinformation" (aka exercising freedom of speech).

School boards meetings all across America and Canada have been highlighted as tensions grow between concerned parents and those pushing woke agendas and the promotion of pornographic content as curriculum. This meeting is particularly disturbing as the chairwoman cuts the mic on anyone who speaks anything other than what SHE believes to be worthy and true, wielding what Cecily rightly describes as her "fake power."

Brains and computers merging together... good idea or bad idea? Should a person go from a "standard-issue human" to a "bio-digital" being? We jump into this episode by playing audio clips promoting and explaining brain-computer interfaces, as well as a brain wave detector being tested on children in China. We discuss the ramifications of militaries that have the capability to "augment" human capabilities (ie: shut down fear, compassion, etc). We also touch on the surveillance state and then discuss DAVOS and the big global threats they've identified... coined the "POLY-CRISIS."

EP 94: Live Your Truth and Other Lies with Alisa Childers Feb 06, 2023

The mantra "live your truth" has been parroted throughout culture in general and Christian circles alike... maybe because most people don't slow down long enough to consider what that statement actually means. We use Alisa's newest book as a springboard to dive into "pop culture Christianity," discuss reasons why young moms are often the target of and roped in by the self help/self love movement that popular personalities like Jen Hatmaker, Glennon Doyle, and Brene Brown sell and ultimately how to rise above it by "spotting the counterfeit." If you aren't yet convinced there's a problem with the "love yourself", "live your truth," "follow your heart" mantras this conversation will seal the deal.

Is it possible to report news without bias as some major personalities claim to? Rachel Reeves from Here Are The Headlines dives in with us as we jump off with “SharonSaysSo” as an example of self proclaimed unbiased reporting followed by brief discussion on hot topics we all need to be aware of: the border crisis, Ukraine, spending and Education. Are teachers unions really helping teachers? Is funding really the cause of falling test scores and struggling students? Is an open border and billions to Ukraine actually compassionate? We end with a lighthearted conversation about pregnancy at 40.

Conspiracy is real. False flag events, controlled opposition and gaslighting, real. But... Damar Hamlin's cardiac arrest a false flag? Headline: "Pro Wrestling Star Jay Briscoe, Dead at 38", automatically assumed to be caused by the shot? How are we different from the media, government and narratives we combated in 2020 and still do today when we operate under assumptions and actively choose to NOT seek factual evidence? We talk through REAL false flag events and discuss the discrediting that happens when we choose fabrication and fishing through false narratives that suit our bias over seeking truth at all costs.

EP. 91: Hold The Line with Erik Reed Jan 16, 2023

Though we may have never considered it, every single one of us is conforming to something. Culture… God… whatever we make our authority we ultimately conform to. How do Christians ‘hold the line’ in a culture demanding our conformity if we don’t even know where the line is?

Current events of the past decade, Marxism, Critical Theory, education and the church’s response, rather non-response… Understanding how we got here will aid us in equipping the next generation (and ourselves) against falling prey to bad ideas and help us have the strength to stand even when we feel the weight of the world against us.

EP. 89: Trauma & Truth: Leaning into Strength, Rejecting Victimhood & Rising Above Cultural Trends Dec 18, 2022

Our main topic today is the buzzword 'TRAUMA,' and how we can reject the bondage that goes along with the cultural trends of victimhood/trauma, and instead embrace and encourage FREEDOM.

- we also talk about some of our favourite episodes from 2022

- the federal government suing a private-practice chiropractor for an astronomical amount

- MAiD in Canada and the rapidly approaching date of being able to apply for MAiD if you have a mental disorder such as depression

- the "dumbing-down" of the population and the supposed inability of people to apply critical thinking across similar circumstances.

EPISODE 88: The Respect for Marriage Act and Gun Legislation Dec 11, 2022

We're talking about 2 pieces of legislation today - one is American and one is Canadian, but both are conversations that are important and apply to ANY country.

RESPECT FOR MARRIAGE ACT:

- What is the government's interest in marriage, and what is marriage biblically, culturally and politically?

- Is marriage actually "respected" to begin with? And as Christians, are we promoting traditional marriage? Or are we just known for what we're "against"?

- Popular cultural lies & how they impact marriage success or failure

- Stats on marriage, divorce, re-marriage and no-fault divorce

- What is the anchor for morality?

BILL C21 - CANADIAN GUN LEGISLATION

- Joined by Luke Zandberg, who is involved in local politics. He gives us a rundown of where this bill is at in the parliamentary process, the sneaky amendments added at second reading, the implications of this bill and where he sees this going.

- What is gun legislation really about?

- Club Q shooting, and gun trafficking... by the government?

EPISODE 86: Ethics Professor, Dr. Julie Ponesse Nov 21, 2022

In this episode, we interview Dr. Julie Ponesse, a former ethics professor. Dr. Ponesse went viral in September 2021 when she made a video questioning the ethics of vaccine mandates. During this interview, we discussed society's intent to become "pure, invincible, immortal and safe." But how does a population come to agree on that utopia? We discuss censorship, transhumanism, and how, in order to be approved as a "tolerant" person, you must also actively promote the "approved" agendas.

While we knew this would be an excellent interview, we were still blown away by the humility and intelligence of this incredible woman.

EPISODE 85: Inside an abortion clinic, Pandemic Amnesty, Ben Shapiro, and "values-based teaching." Nov 14, 2022

NPR released a recording of women being interviewed in an abortion clinic and audio of an abortion procedure. How did people react? We discuss Ben Shapiro's recent apology regarding his vaccine advocacy and messaging. We talk about pandemic amnesty... we define amnesty, contrast it with forgiveness and talk through whether amnesty is a good idea or not. We also talk about covid classes being taught in universities, and "values-based teaching."

EPISODE 83: Vaccines Under Anesthesia, Dylan Mulvaney: Trans Tiktok Star & Pfizer’s Bankroll Oct 30, 2022

Are the Covid vaccines being administered while patients are under anesthesia? Rita gives her take on what could be happening.

How do the vaccine manufacturers actually make money if we aren’t directly paying for them? We explain.

US Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett landed a book deal with Penguin. Cancel culture is coming for her... and Penguin Publishing.

EPISODE 82: More Covid Lies & Pride Led Decisions: Transmission, Childhood V, Gain of Function Oct 23, 2022

A Pfizer exec. admits the vaccine wasn't tested to prevent transmission.

The AICP met, and unanimously voted to add the COVID vaccine to the childhood schedule (then the CDC followed suit a day after recording).

More gain of function anyone? Boston University continues down the dangerous road.

We discuss all the reasons the vaccine SHOULD NOT be added to the schedule, the lack of study around transmission actually NOT being news at all and the madness of repeating past mistakes.

We create many of our own problems and PRIDE is at the root of each one addressed today.

EPISODE 81: Medical Kidnapping, Transitioning Kids & School Health Centers... a Discussion on Parental Rights Oct 17, 2022

An Amber Alert flashed across Cecily's phone leading us to a big conversation on parental rights. In this episode we let you in on a true hashing out of our thoughts.

1. Medical Kidnaping: Is it ever ok for the medical community to say THEY know what's best for your child? If so, where is that line drawn?

2. Transgenderism... Kids Transitioning: When kids are allowed to make permanent, life altering decisions and invoke irreparable physical damage, what is our responsibility? Where should our aim be directed?

3. School Health Centers: A dad finds out his son was prescribed and taking psych meds at school without his knowledge... and it was completely legal. Is there something more than "helping the less fortunate" behind the massive push for these centers around the United States?

When we ask our governments to intervene in issues that we see clearly leading to suffering as a natural consequence of living outside of a moral foundation we'd be well served to remember our goverments have no moral foundation, their authority is culture.

EPISODE 79: Myocarditis, Unreported Vaccine Injuries and Job Loss with Former Rady Children’s Pediatric Cardiac ICU RN, Tawny Buettner Oct 03, 2022

Tawny has been outspoken for her patients and her career. We discuss the termination of her and many other‘s jobs due to declining the vaccine. Tawny also gives us a picture into her experience in a pediatric cardiac ICU at Rady Children’s which was a trial site for the Moderna Vaccine. You have to hear this, it’s shocking but not surprising that there was no plan for reporting adverse reactions or follow up of patients who were injured once discharge for the purpose of studying the vaccine. Stick around to the end. We ask Tawny what sets her apart as actually willing to take a stand. This is something all parents can learn from as our children are all going to have to know how to be strong. Tawny mentions “LGE” meaning late gadolinium enhancement in MRI which was not done as inpatient in this population and therefore not included in the data recorded on outcomes of these children with myocarditis. Here is an article on LGE: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00330-019-06643-5. https://www.givesendgo.com/radynurses FIND US: https://instagram.com/nursingsoulfulheartsd https://instagram.com/ritarogersco https://instagram.com/cecily.dickey www.theboomclapcommunity.com SPONSOR: https://readkaleidoscope.com Code: BOOMCLAP to save 10%

EPISODE 78: Renewable Energy Agenda with guest Tom DeWeese Sep 26, 2022

“Sustainable”, “Renewable” ... “Green”. You can’t go a day without hearing these buzzwords but is there any depth or are they just that, buzzwords you’d seem crazy not to see as “good”.

What is behind the movement for renewables?

You might be surprised to find the motives behind this agenda are very familiar: fear to gain your compliance and onboard you to champion the agenda and ultimately, control.

How can communities work to protect themselves as these energy companies backed by the government move in?

We dip into WIND & SOLAR answering some questions from listeners:

-Are they renewable?

-Are there health effects from living near them?

-What goes into building them?

In this bonus episode, we hear the story of a honeymoon gone awry. Well, just the return trip went wrong... thankfully not the whole honeymoon. Josh and Acacia tell us the story of how they were denied boarding their return flight, had to spend extra days in Mexico, were threatened with being denied boarding on their second attempt at coming home, and then chose to refuse to fill out the ArriveCan app despite being threatened with jail time and up to a million dollars in fines.

EPISODE 76: Minnesota Nursing Strike Sep 19, 2022

Going past the headline: “15,000 Nurses Strike.”

Why are nurses striking?

Is the the union actually bargaining for improved patient safety or patients before profits?

Do these strikes address mandates & the poor treatment of unvaccinated nurses or is that an inaccurate assumption?

Who is leading the union charge? We look at the union president. Did you know she was appointed to Biden’s COVID Equity Committee?

SB 1567: Are federally governed staffing ratios the answer?

This episode isn’t to sway your opinion of the strike, rather to go past the headlines and look at the whole picture before forming an opinion.

EPISODE 73: Lazy Journalism, Morality Part 2 and Assisted Suicide Aug 22, 2022

We start off by talking about journalists who employ "lazy journalism" by posting clickbait headlines with no actual substance. Rita talks through the post of one political commentator who is celebrating that "the tides are turning" with vaccine mandates and calling on all healthcare workers who lost their jobs to stand up, lawyer up and sue. You'll want to hear Rita's reaction.

We then dived into morality part 2, as a continuation of last week's episode. Culture is driving morality very purposefully in an immoral direction.

We then dive into MAID (medical assistance in dying, aka: assisted suicide) in Canada. This is a major moral issue as well, and this slope is not just slippery, it has been fully slid down.

EPISODE 70: We Deserve an Apology: Mandates, Houston Methodist & CIA Mind Control Aug 01, 2022

+ Despite having the first vaccine mandate in the country, Houston Methodist Hospital is facing a staffing shortage crisis due to employees out with covid.

+ When they rolled out the vax mandate, it was to "protect patients and staff from infection and transmission." Now, they're saying it's to reduce severity, and they say that's what the purpose always was.

+ We compare the political brainwashing tests happening in China with CIA mind control experiments such as Project Mockingbird and MK Ultra.

+ Allie's "controversial statement" of not putting their kids in sports. the backlash she faced, and the reason she and her husband chose that path

+ The journey to homeschool

+ Allie shares about her daughter, Juliet, who passed just over a month after her birth. We discuss the value of ALL human life, the push from the medical world toward abortion, and the impact that the life of this little girl had on the Kingdom of God.

EPISODE 67: Should Your Kids Have a Smartphone? Jul 11, 2022

While it may sound alarmist, the truth is that our kids are in digital danger. Whether it’s online predators, pornography, the new world of virtual reality and the upcoming metaverse, the comparison trap of social media, or the addiction of screen time, it’s our job as parents to see the problem and look for healthy solutions. In this episode, we talk to Anne Marie McDonald, the Chief Parent Officer at Gabb Wireless. Gabb Wireless is the company behind the safest phones in the world. We draw on Anne Marie’s expertise to touch on all the issues listed above. She provides excellent information while encouraging calm, rational solutions, to help our kids use tech as a tool rather than trouble. https://gabbwireless.com/ https://www.theboomclapcommunity.com/ https://www.instagram.com/gabbwireless/ https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/ https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/

EPISODE 65: To Speak or Not to Speak? Knowledge or Wisdom? And What is the Goal of our Parenting? Jun 20, 2022

Today we’re talking with our good friend, Shanda Fulbright of the Her Faith Inspires Podcast. We live in a noisy world, and sometimes it’s hard to have a podcast and add our conversation to a world that already feels saturated. We talked to Shanda about what it looks like to pursue wisdom, pursue truth and speak with discernment. We then discuss parenting: why does it seem like the conversation among parents is always about school, sports and achievements? Why is the conversation rarely about Jesus, faith, the gospel... the things that Christians profess to care about the most? We’re called to walk differently- we hope the Holy Spirit uses this episode to encourage your family to put first things first, prioritize a biblical worldview, and live and love with an eternal perspective. https://www.instagram.com/shandafulbright/ https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/ https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/ https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/her-faith-inspires-podcast/id1487568229

EPISODE 64: Pride, Entitlement and ILL-Logic: Trans agenda, Hospital staffing, Gun law advocate commits gun crime Jun 13, 2022

Did you hear about the man arrested for plotting to kill Supreme Court Justice Kavinaugh? Wait until you hear WHY he sought to kill him.

The trans movement is targeting our children, but most importantly adults who don’t agree are scared to speak out. While we do need to be focused on protecting our kids, our biggest focus needs to be raising them in such a way that they’ll be able to withstand the pressure to bend as adults... that’s when it gets really tough.

When it comes to the trans movement what is being promoted as the general consensus is really minority mob rule. The healthcare community that promotes it, can’t even fully buy in. Guess why: SCIENCE. I arm you with some interesting tidbits from bedside care.

Finally I discuss the PRIDE issue in healthcare administration’s inability to admit their mistakes, which is further harming their staffing and share their solution... you may or may not be surprised at the literal lengths they are going to get staff.

EPISODE 63: Liberty is never free... and rarely cheap. Jun 06, 2022

+ Cecily’s sister met a lady who flew from the US to Canada who says they were told to put on masks as soon as they entered Canadian air space... WHAT??? + We discuss morality - whether it’s subjective or objective and where it even comes from. + The bulk of the episode is built upon this concept of liberty never being free and rarely cheap... yet so many Canadians and Americans expect life to be a walk in the park. But perhaps the freedoms we enjoy here demand a little something of us in return. + We wrap it up by discussing how history is built upon the One who suffered - Jesus Christ. We talk about biblical examples of suffering and also dip into Revelation to understand the root of suffering and our place in it. https://www.theboomclapcommunity.com/ https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/ https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/ https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/basics/learned-helplessness https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bystander_effect https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/your-brain-food/201008/why-do-teenagers-feel-immortal https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4146181/

EPISODE 62: Common Sense and Good Intentions: Moral Decay Requires a Divine Solution May 30, 2022

The tragedy at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, has broken hearts and further shaken a population in turmoil. This is a delicate topic and we did our best to examine as many sides of it as we could. We discuss the actual event, the timeline, and the emergency response. We also discuss some of the proposed solutions, such as gun control, social emotional learning and secure classrooms. As we always do on The Boom Clap Podcast, we try to evaluate the root cause... moral relativism and societal rot being near the top of the list. Ultimately, legislation is important, but transformed hearts with an eternal perspective will be the most revolutionary solution of all. https://www.theboomclapcommunity.com/ https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/ https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/i-used-to-think-gun-control-was-the-answer-my-research-told-me-otherwise/2017/10/03/d33edca6-a851-11e7-92d1-58c702d2d975_story.html https://www.statista.com/statistics/811487/number-of-mass-shootings-in-the-us/ https://www.statista.com/statistics/195325/murder-victims-in-the-us-by-weapon-used/

EPISODE 61: Adversaries or Allies? Living in an Argument Culture... May 23, 2022

Today we’re interviewing Matt Shantz, the lead pastor of the church Cecily works at and attends, and the host of The Deep Thoughts Podcast. This conversation is about disagreement and division... which I think most of us have experienced over the past couple of years. What makes this conversation unique is that Cecily and Matt actually DO have some disagreements; this is precisely why we thought he would be a good guest to have on for this topic. We discuss the argument culture we live in, the temptation to view people as adversaries or allies rather than as fellow image-bearers, what we wish we would have done differently over the past couple of years, and what has been learned. https://www.theboomclapcommunity.com/ https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-deep-thoughts-podcast-with-matt-shantz/id1484010749 https://www.instagram.com/deepthoughtspodcast/ https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/ https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/

EPISODE 60: CRT and Abortion With Samuel Sey May 16, 2022

CRT (critical race theory) and abortion are currently two big front of mind topics. Samuel Sey sits down to discuss these issues from a Biblical perspective.

Samuel tells us his story of his upbringing and coming to Christ.

We ask him what it means to be, “slow to write” and if he finds it a challenge to maintain that demeanor in a climate that rewards the first to comment on any given event or situation.

The conversation ends up weaving into a discussion on standing firm in our mutual desires to lead well in a culture of short attention spans and self love.

EPISODE 59: Ministry of Truth and Covid Jail May 09, 2022

In the first half of this episode, we talk about the Disinformation Governance Board... perhaps better known as The Ministry of Truth. ;) What does it mean to give control over what is true and false or right and wrong to a board of arbitrarily appointed people? We also talk about bill C-11 in Canada, which also has many reasons for us to be wary. At the back half of the episode, we interview Mason, a Shanghai resident who recently got out of what he calls ”Covid Jail.” Mason and his girlfriend were forced to go to a Covid quarantine camp, and he tells us the full story. Shanghai may seem far off, but it is incredibly relevant. Mason mentions that what’s happening in Shanghai is the consequence of an overly compliant society. As we here in North America face things like the Disinformation Governance Board, we would be well served to keep that timely warning in mind. https://www.theboomclapcommunity.com/ https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/ https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/ https://justice.gc.ca/eng/csj-sjc/pl/charter-charte/c10.html https://www.justice.gc.ca/eng/csj-sjc/pl/charter-charte/c11_2.html https://www.poynter.org/reporting-editing/2022/what-is-department-homeland-security-disinformation-governance-board/

EPISODE 58: Shanghai Lockdown: First-Hand Account May 02, 2022

This may be one of the most (if not THE most) important episodes we’ve ever done. We chat with Elizabeth Lui who has been living in China for 17 years, the bulk of which has been in Shanghai. She walks us through the reality of what is happening right now in Shanghai and her words tell of a haunting humanitarian crisis while ringing a shrill warning bell. This is not an episode to be missed... we cannot state that clearly enough. She takes us through every bit of the restrictions and the impact it has had on their lives. From splitting 1 egg between 2 people for food conservation to disguising herself in a hazmat suit to go outside. Again... this story NEEDS to be heard. Listen to this important message, share it to be part of the solution, and thank Elizabeth for her courage in speaking out! https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/ https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/ https://www.instagram.com/elizabethcliu/

EPISODE 57: More than a Soundbite: Elon, Disney, Fed Mask Mandate, Hunter Biden Laptop Apr 25, 2022

This is a hodgepodge episode. A mixed bag. Collage. Assortment. A patchwork, if you will. Now that I’ve gone through many of the synonyms for hodgepodge, let me give you a run-down of what we talk about. We start off by talking about Elon Musk, his attempted takeover of twitter, the public response, transhumanism and the saviour complex people tend to develop when it comes to the elites of the world. Next up we talk about the self-governance of Disney, Ron DeSantis’ challenge of that, the ”perks” that large corporations have enjoyed, and the hypocrisy that we’ve seen as the whole Disney debacle has played out. We then shift gears to talking about the US federal mask mandate, representative governments gone wrong, commonly believed lies, the hunter Biden laptop and the Shanghai lockdowns: what’s with the media response to that?? And what can we learn from it? Finally... we wrap it up with HOPE. We leave you with the reminder that God is omnipotent, and the right knowledge of that brings true and lasting peace. https://www.cnbc.com/2022/04/22/china-covid-lockdown-workers-in-shanghai-struggle-to-get-back-to-work-.html https://www.cbsnews.com/news/disney-self-government-florida-desantis/ https://www.foxnews.com/politics/bill-stripping-disney-of-special-self-governing-power-passes-florida-senate https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/ https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/

EPISODE 56: Eyes Up. Apr 18, 2022

We’re talking about what matters most in this episode. Keep your eyes UP. Be on the lookout because the well-beaten path is not necessarily the best path, and deceit... and self-deceit are rampant in our current day. https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/ https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/

EPISODE 55: The Vanderbilt Nurse Case Apr 10, 2022

RaDonda Vaught, a Vanderbilt nurse, made a fatal med error. She has now lost her license and been charged with negligent homicide. But the story doesn’t end there.

Kati Kleber of FreshRN.com and I discuss the timeline, the charges and answer the question: “could this happen to anyone?”.

We also discuss very interesting “politics” of the case. Who is the DA and what is his affiliation to Vanderbilt... to RaDonda’s defense attorney? Why did the hospital initially list “natural causes” on the patient’s death certificate?

This is much deeper than a conclusion of guilty or innocent. It’s a picture of inconsistency, corruption in healthcare, and has the potential to set precedent changing not only how nurses practice but overall willingness to take the risk of working at the bedside.

EPISODE 54: Twilight Sleep Apr 04, 2022

In this episode, we have a fascinating discussion with Lizzie Bolliger regarding Twilight Sleep. Twilight Sleep may be about ”birth,” but this episode is for EVERYONE as we touch on eugenics and the history behind ”why” we do things in the medical world. We hope this episode stirs thought about how evidence of past medical mistakes should make us vigilant of the mistakes that could be happening in the present. Also, while we look at the impure motives of medical decisions of the past, perhaps it will cause us to have our eyes wide open to the possible motives of the present as well. We hope you enjoy this conversation as much as we did! https://www.instagram.com/fiercelizzie/ https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/ https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/ https://mh.bmj.com/content/45/1/67.long

EPISODE 53: Re-Visiting our Values... One Wild Year Later. Mar 28, 2022

Today, we’re re-playing what the majority of you are calling you’re favourite episode of the first year of The Boom Clap Podcast. That episode just so happens to be the very first one released, all about VALUES. We love that you loved this one because it is the WHY behind why we started the podcast, it’s the foundation of our podcast... and if we’ve got our priorities straight, our values are what build the foundation of our lives. It’s interesting listening back to this episode a year after it was released. As you listen, consider the following: What has changed in your life since early 2021? Have your values changed? Have you become more aware of them? Are you living a life that reflects them? https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/ https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/

EPISODE 52: Beware of Normal. Beware of Forgetting. Mar 21, 2022

Beware of normal. What even is ”normal?” Well, it seems that the past weeks have brought a reprieve from masking and mandates, and we’re getting a taste of what life was like pre-2020. We should be celebrating, right? Or, perhaps, now is not the time to grow complacent. Perhaps now is the time to look at ”normal” with a degree of skepticism and wisdom, and to instead intentionally pursue truth and faithful living. The media tends to whip us from one topic to the next, inducing whiplash and creating a culture of ”double-speak” and mass-forgetting. Together, let’s choose a different way. PS: speaking of ’together,’ don’t forget to check out The Boom Clap Community. We want to hear your voice! PPS: It’s The Boom Clap Podcast’s One Year Anniversary!

EPISODE 51: Univeral Basic Income... Problem Solver? Or Problem Creator? Mar 14, 2022

First off... Make sure you listen to the end of the episode for a VERY exciting, special announcement! Hint... check the link at the bottom of the show notes... ;) Now, down to business: This episode is about universal basic income. We talk through Canadian Bill C-223, which has been through its first reading in Canadian parliament. We talk through its stated intentions, the implications... and the problems we see with it. We also go through the World Economic Forum’s thoughts on the topic- talking through the objectives of that organization is always interesting... https://www.parl.ca/DocumentViewer/en/44-1/bill/C-223/first-reading https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2020/04/covid-19-universal-basic-income-social-inequality/ https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/ https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/ https://www.theboomclapcommunity.com/

EPISODE 50: Now the Stupidest of us Know... Mar 07, 2022

OK, we admit, that’s a bit of a provocative title. But... those are words from the lips of C.S. Lewis, so I’m sure you can forgive us. In this episode, we dissect his essay, ”On Living in an Atomic Age,” and his sermon, ”Learning in War-Time.” Both of these writings are filled with so much wisdom that we can apply to our lives during this tumultuous time. The words of C.S. Lewis in these works reminds us that the days we’re living in aren’t as novel as we’d believe and that no matter the circumstance, our objective and purpose in living doesn’t change. But will we be faithful to the call? Or distracted? We hope you enjoy the nuggets of wisdom Lewis presents as much as we did! https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/ https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/ https://bradleyggreen.com/attachments/Lewis.Learning%20in%20War-Time.pdf https://www.swordofthespirit.net/bulwark/april2020p7.htm HTTP://www.eventshistory.com/date/1939/

EPISODE 49: When it Hits Close to Home... Feb 28, 2022

Today we’re talking with Rita’s cousin-in-law, Lauren. Lauren recently lost her dad due to complications from Covid. We listen in and ask questions as she bravely shares their family’s experience and the challenges they faced getting the care her dad required. Rita acted as an advocate for the family and explains what that was like as well. Thank you, Lauren, for sharing. https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/ https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/

EPISODE 48: Freedom Convoy, Hospital stats and Good Questions Feb 21, 2022

Today we’re discussing a buffet of topics, rapid-fire style. We’re starting with the Freedom Convoy, moving onto hospital stats and then just asking some questions that should seriously be asked. https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/ https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/

EPISODE 47: Do Justice. Correct Oppression. Feb 14, 2022

A frequent conversation in our circles over the past while has been regarding what our role is in the pursuit of justice. Justice, in simple terms, is putting things right. Clearly, as humans, we will never get it all right. But while we wait for the perfect justice that IS coming from our Lord, we can and should do our best to actively move against injustice that we see inflicted upon our fellow image-bearers. We discuss the role of Christians throughout history in the fight against injustice, and while times and situations change, God never does. His call to us is the same today as always: learn to do good; seek justice; correct oppression; bring justice to the fatherless; plead the widow’s cause; love kindness, walk humbly with your God.

EPISODE 46: The Business of Awareness Feb 07, 2022

We live in a world that’s all about awareness. It seems we’re told that if only we could learn more about the plight of every person, disease, race, orientation, or catastrophe, the world would be a better place. But does knowledge alone fix anything? The goal for awareness should be to move people towards true action. But what does action beyond awareness look like? We also caution that when awareness is done really wrong, it simply leads to harm and division. This conversation is, ironically, about raising ”awareness” about the possible pitfalls of awareness done wrong. Our hope is to also lay some groundwork for going beyond just ”awareness” to true action about the things you are passionate about. https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/ https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/ https://ssir.org/articles/entry/stop_raising_awareness_already

EPISODE 45: The Voices of Those Who Stood When Mandates Sought to Make Them Kneel Jan 31, 2022

Today we talk with 3 different people, who have 3 different stories of how their lives were affected by mandates in health care. Each story is unique as each person had a different outcome, however, the ”Why” behind their decision to stand is the same. The consequences of mandates have been covered before, however, this is such an important issue to continue to shine a light on. We hope that these stories of faith and courage are an encouragement to you. https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/ https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/ https://www.instagram.com/nurses4informedconsent/ (LAUREN) https://www.instagram.com/garenteed/ (GAREN) https://www.instagram.com/ajhurley/ (AJ)

EPISODE 44: Awareness, Assessment, Application, Action. Jan 24, 2022

This is the first episode that Rita and Cecily sat down to record together in 2022. Because of that, we talk about why we started the podcast, and what our goals for the podcast are this year. Our goals have nothing to do with metrics, and everything to do with values, faithfulness, our approach to life and our prayer for our listeners. + Psalm 25 + James 1 + Psalm 1 https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/ https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/

EPISODE 43: Tommy John Jan 17, 2022

This Interview with Tommy John is a must-listen. There is so much to learn from his anything-but-mainstream way of thinking about the miraculous nature of the body and healing.

Tommy gives us the details on burning his degrees, insight into what he means by “you heal you”, a run through the “8 essentials” and just some really good thought provoking conversation.

EPISODE 42: Early Treatment: Prepared, Proactive Jan 10, 2022

A discussion of how my (Rita’s) family handled COVID. I run down what we did, but most importantly the thought process behind it. So many people want to know what they can do at home at onset of symptoms and the healthcare system is not obliging.

This episode is not medical advice. It is simply information, a story of personal decisions we made in our care, what we did and why. Each individual is responsible for the decisions they make and care they do or do not seek out.

Plan ahead, be prepared.

EPISODE 41: The Greatest Story Dec 20, 2021

Today we‘re saying goodbye to 2021 with a simple episode. The foundation of our podcast is values and truth. Our values come from the truth, which comes from Jesus Christ. We go through the Christmas story and the gospel today. We marvel at the truth of what Christ has done for us, and the hope that He offers. No matter how dark the world may be, the light of Christ has already won. Thanks for being with us this year. We can‘t wait to come back in 2022!

EPISODE 40: The Reality of a Broken System Dec 13, 2021

In today‘s episode, we talk about the realities of what a broken healthcare system looks like, and the effect it has on the people that rely on it. We compare and contrast the experiences in the US and Canada, and discuss the spectrum of care, from home and community care to the ICU. We also touch on the fragility of humans, and how much of that can be traced back to the broken education system. We talk about the rising rates of depression, anxiety and suicide and the need for a better way. We wrap it up by talking about our role within our government systems, elections, and Yellowstone. Yes, the show Yellowstone.

EPISODE 39: Watch Out for the Dogs Dec 06, 2021

Do you ever have it where you and a friend start talking about one thing, and then before you know it you‘re talking about a whole bunch of things? That‘s what happened on today‘s recording. We went in with a clear mission and it evolved as the episode progressed. Today we discussed responsibility - namely the fact that what happens in our lives is ultimately our responsibility. Raising our kids is our responsibility as parents. Protecting them is our responsibility. Shaping them, training them, loving them... it‘s on us. We live in a time where more and more power is being given to institutions, governments and the ”experts” within those. In this episode, we‘re peeling it back to the roots. Our lives and our children are OUR responsibility. https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/ https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/ https://www.instagram.com/thekaylahenry/ Philippians 3:2-3 Deuteronomy 6:4-9

EPISODE 38: Q&A... and O. Nov 29, 2021

You asked... we answered! This Q&A episode is really a Q, A and O episode... Questions, answers and opinions. This episode was a lot of fun to record. We got a look into the things that you‘re interested in hearing and had some laughs and meaningful moments as we talked through our answers. We covered everything from covid, family, faith, and health, as well as how we came to be friends and what our relationship is like. We hope you enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed recording this one!

EPISODE 37: Surviving the Internet Nov 22, 2021

In today‘s episode, we talk about human behaviour on the internet (and in real life, too). We play a clip of a man responding to the brutal remarks her received on the internet and listen as he describes the dark pit it has sent him to. We discuss how the people of the world feel compelled to ”pick a team” and to associate their whole identity with the labels that the team proudly wears, while simultaneously disregarding and discarding those who wear a different label or may appear to be on a ”different team.” The toxicity of the past couple of years has turned people against each other and has moved us away from what love really is. The goal for this episode is to prepare us all with the tools and knowledge we need to engage well, communicate with kindness, and form resilience as we strive not to pick a team, but to lead with love. https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/ https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/ https://www.instagram.com/slowdownfarmstead/ https://www.instagram.com/kylewarnermtb/

EPISODE 36: Chaos and Control Nov 20, 2021

We weren‘t planning this, but we ended up with a bonus episode this week! Today, we‘re discussing the chaos that has come from the flooding in Cecily‘s home province of BC and the control that the CDC, FDA and NCSBN (National Council of State Boards of Nursing) are trying to exert on nurses and the scientific process in general. Chaos and control. And the human response. https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/ https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/ https://www.ncsbn.org/index.htm https://www.reuters.com/markets/commodities/panicked-shoppers-clear-out-grocery-stores-flood-hit-british-columbia-2021-11-18/ https://www.dairyherd.com/news/education/canadian-dairy-farmers-hit-hard-devastating-atmospheric-river-floods

EPISODE 35: The Peace of Preparedness with Amber Elle Nov 15, 2021

Today, we are interviewing Amber Elle. Amber is a homeschooling mom of 3 kids, the ultimate mama-bear and the Director of Family Preparedness and Women‘s Development for Fieldcraft. Amber talks us through living, parenting and preparing... not from a place of fear, but from a place ofpeace and capability. We talk practicalities, mindset, the sanctity of life and how to protect it. We are confident that you will come away from this episode feeling inspired, empowered... and capable. https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/ https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/ https://www.instagram.com/ms.amber.elle/ https://www.instagram.com/fieldcraftsurvival/ https://www.wetheprepared.com/

EPISODE 34: First Things First Nov 08, 2021

In today‘s episode, we‘re putting first things first. The world keeps on spinning, different things are competing for our attention, the life we always knew is changing, and we experience loss. But through it all, we can choose to order things rightly, or go with the flow. We also talk about the goals we have for our own lives in hopes of encouraging you to think of the goals you have for your life. We‘re in a moment in time where many of us are being forced to shift gears and re-imagine. What do you want your life to stand for? What do you want your life to look like? https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/ https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/

EPISODE 33: What Are We Doing? Nov 01, 2021

When we quiet all the talking points, sound bites, and repetitive phrases, when we look at what is actually happening around us, just the facts, it begs the question: WHAT ARE WE DOING? When we break down the reality of recent and even long term data, is it rational to be making every waking decision based on this one “thing”? I walk through the numbers, covering some all encompassing stats spanning the entirety of the pandemic and the more recent staff stats from my hospital. How many staff members are actually out from work due to testing positive? What percentage of those staff members are fully vaccinated? I then run down the full sequence of events. Regardless of what they call it, I did not resign, I was fired from my job where I was a cardiovascular ICU nurse for over 15 years. https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/ https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/ https://www.c-uphd.org/champaign-urbana-illinois-coronavirus-information.html https://www.cnn.com/2021/03/22/health/covid-vaccines-prevent-death/index.html https://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/2021/02/12/all-covid-vaccines-stop-death-severe-illness-column/6709455002/ https://www.cnn.com/2021/10/18/health/covid-19-vaccination-colin-powell-death-wen-wellness/index.html https://blogs.cdc.gov/niosh-science-blog/2020/06/10/ppe-burden/ https://www.msn.com/en-us/health/medical/fauci-led-agency-funded-abusive-animal-experiments-promising-to-kill-dozens-of-beagles/ar-AAMXpne https://files.asprtracie.hhs.gov/documents/epimn-module-2-understanding-hospital-ics.pdf

EPISODE 32: Finding Peace in Troubled Times Oct 25, 2021

In today‘s episode, we‘re taking a step back from current events to focus on the constants and the unchangeables. It‘s easy to get caught up in the happenings of the world and to be left feeling anxious and out of control. But there are things in life that are constant and unchanged. We talk about focusing on those things, and the impact they can have on how we deal with the challenges of every day. We hope this episode is a breath of fresh air for you! https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/ https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/

EPISODE 31: The Mandate Effect Oct 18, 2021

In today‘s episode, we discuss the mandate effect and how, like the butterfly effect, it will have an impact on EVERYONE. We talk about southwest airlines, healthcare mandates and the transmission lie. The question is... can the butterfly effect be interrupted? And how can we be part of that interruption? https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/ https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/ https://www.cnn.com/2021/10/12/us/unvaccinated-missouri-hospital-covid-19/index.html https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2021/08/06/cdc_director_vaccines_no_longer_prevent_you_from_spreading_covid.html# https://apple.news/AeyfF6N_wTNirgtpBdCt7XQ https://www.google.ca/amp/s/beta.ctvnews.ca/local/montreal/2021/10/13/1_5621081.html https://www.fda.gov/emergency-preparedness-and-response/coronavirus-disease-2019-covid-19/pfizer-biontech-covid-19-vaccine-frequently-asked-questions https://www.bmj.com/content/371/bmj.m4037

EPISODE 30: The Anatomy of a Fact Oct 11, 2021

In this episode, we examine the ”fact-checkers.” They claim to be non-partisan... is this true? And who funds them? We also talk about how words are often manipulated to turn a truth into a lie. Why did we decide to talk about fact-checkers? Because truth matters. We live in a world that tries to lead with lies, but freedom is not found in lies, it is found in truth. Truth has no agenda. Lies always do. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fact-checking https://www.politifact.com/article/2017/dec/15/we-started-fact-checking-partnership-facebook-year/ https://www.poynter.org/ifcn/ https://www.poynter.org/ifcn/grants-ifcn/ https://www.poynter.org/major-funders/#1632843888743-52666069-9ec9 https://www.politifact.com/ https://www.politifact.com/who-pays-for-politifact/ https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poynter_Institute https://mediamattersamerica.com/ https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Media_Matters_for_America https://www.rwjf.org/en/library/collections/coronavirus-disease-2019--covid-19.html https://www.rwjf.org/en/how-we-work/building-a-culture-of-health.html https://www.rwjf.org/en/cultureofhealth/taking-action.html https://www.rwjf.org/en/about-rwjf/financials.html https://www.factcheck.org/our-funding/ https://annenberg.org/ https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annenberg_Foundation https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walter_Annenberg https://www.influencewatch.org/non-profit/annenberg-foundation/ https://www.annenberg.net/pages/visionMission.php https://capitalresearch.org/article/dishonest-fact-checkers/ https://www.heritage.org/public-opinion/commentary/the-facts-about-fact-checkers https://www.investors.com/politics/editorials/fact-checkers-big-media/ https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snopes

EPISODE 29: Socially Acceptable Corruption? An Interview With Alec Zeck Oct 04, 2021

In this episode, Rita and Cecily interview Alec Zeck, of Health Freedom For Humanity. We focus in on the corruption and ”in-breeding” within the CDC, FDA, government, media and investors. We talk criminal activity, gas-lighting, hypocrisy and the white-washed veneer of these agencies when they‘re presented to the public. https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/ https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/ https://t.me/TheWayFwrd Check out some of the links below: https://healthfreedomforhumanity.org/ https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/e36-why-im-not-getting-the-thing/id1532600628?i=1000533983050 https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/jep.12147 https://www.fda.gov/about-fda/fda-leadership-1907-today/commissioners https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33652582/ https://medslawsuit.com/frauds/what-is-a-pharmaceutical-kickback https://thebl.tv/world-news/12-of-the-13-most-vaccinated-countries-in-the-world-are-considered-risky-for-travel-by-cdc.html https://www.timesofisrael.com/israeli-uk-data-offer-mixed-signals-on-vaccines-potency-against-delta-strain/ https://www.timesofisrael.com/israeli-uk-data-offer-mixed-signals-on-vaccines-potency-against-delta-strain/ https://covidcalltohumanity.org/2021/08/16/majority-of-hospitalized-covid-19-patients-in-israel-are-fully-vaccinated/ https://www.forbes.com/sites/johnlamattina/2018/06/28/the-biopharmaceutical-industry-provides-75-of-the-fdas-drug-review-budget-is-this-a-problem/?sh=2d1747849ec8 https://thevaccinereaction.org/2021/08/covid-vaccines-not-proven-to-prevent-sars-cov-2-infection-or-transmission/ https://rightsfreedoms.wordpress.com/2021/08/02/covid-19-deaths-are-rising-and-official-data-shows-87-of-the-people-who-have-died-were-vaccinated/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23597717/ https://openvaers.com/covid-data https://digital.ahrq.gov/ahrq-funded-projects/electronic-support-public-health-vaccine-adverse-event-reporting-system https://www.cdcfoundation.org/partner-list/corporations https://www.nytimes.com/2009/12/18/health/policy/18cdc.html

EPISODE 28: A Testimony, a Parable, and a Call to Stay Awake (and no, I don‘t mean woke). Sep 27, 2021

In this episode, you‘ll hear Cecily‘s testimony of what God has done in her life. We‘ll talk about what a responsibility, blessing and privilege it is to be entrusted with kingdom work by God here on earth, and we‘ll talk about why it‘s so important to stay awake at the spiritual wheel. We‘ll also find out why Cecily liked hanging out by the garbage bin as a child. https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/ https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/

EPISODE 27: 87 Years Worth of Wisdom... Sep 20, 2021

In today‘s episode, Cecily interviews her Grandma, who really isn‘t even sure what a podcast is. The conversation really gets rolling once Grandma gets used to the microphone. The Boom Clap Podcast is about values, and many of our recent episodes have focused hard on controversial current events and how our values shape how we think about them and function in culture. Today, we‘re slowing it down and looking to the past to glean wisdom for the future. We talk about: + Pioneer life in the early 1900‘s + Marriage and Parenting + Losing a child + Living Through War + Advice for today‘s generation + Legacy + Tragedy and Joy + Trusting God + Living With Purpose https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/ https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/

EPISODE 26: Live Not By Lies Sep 13, 2021

In this episode, the essay Live Not By Lies by Alexander Solzhenitsyn is read and discussed. Rita and Cecily have both become fascinated by the life and writings of this man, and they applied many current events to his thoughts. Much can be learned from history and those who have been through things that we have not. This is amongst our most passionate of episodes as we commit to live not by lies, but fully in truth. https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/ https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/ https://honestyculture.com/alexander-solzhenitsyn-live-not-by-lies/ https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samizdat

EPISODE 25: Orwell vs. Huxley: Which Dystopia Will It Be? Sep 06, 2021

Orwell feared a world of external oppression, and Huxley a world of internal oppression. Orwell feared the things we hate would rule us, Huxley feared it would be the things we love. In this episode, we dissect the 2 different visions of a dystopic future. We chat about the influences of each that we see in our current culture, & consider whether a utopia could ever be achieved using either of these methods. What does it really take to hold people captive? Fear? Or ever-growing passivity? https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/ https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/ https://www.huxley.net/utopian-dystopian.pdf https://www.openculture.com/2018/08/aldous-huxley-george-orwell-hellish-vision-future-better-1949.html https://highexistence.com/amusing-ourselves-to-death-huxley-vs-orwell/ https://www.learning-mind.com/mental-slavery-orwell-huxley/ http://www.andrewcusack.com/2021/huxley-orwell/

EPISODE 24: Calculated Division Aug 30, 2021

Is the division we're feeling natural? Or is it instigated and fanned into an ever-growing flame by the media and the elites? Piggy-backing off last week's episode, Elites & Innocents, we peel back the layers of the metastasizing division that is plaguing our communities, our nations, and our world. We talk about how the media holds our attention with sensational and focused reporting, how groups of people are pitted against each other, and how embracing segregation fuels increased division. We also focus on practical applications for the Christian navigating these tricky times as we do our best to lead with love and seek unity in the body of Christ, which comes from knowledge of the Son of God. https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/ https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/ https://nypost.com/2019/06/25/its-our-elites-who-are-driving-americas-divisions/

EPISODE 23: The Elites & The Innocents Aug 23, 2021

Is there a group of people trying to make society in its own image? And is there a group of people who are swayed by the positive-sounding (yet deceptive) message of the first group? In this episode, we talk about the elites that enjoy power and wealth, the systems that help keep them in that position and the innocent, well-meaning people who play into their agenda. We also talk about the cost & realities of poverty and examine how "philanthropy" is often used as a smoke-screen for gaining more wealth and power. https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/ https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/ https://truthunmuted.org/bill-gates-and-neo-feudalism-a-closer-look-at-farmer-bill/ https://inequality.org/great-divide/americas-billionaires-borrowing-their-way-to-ever-more-fabulous-fortunes/https://nonprofitquarterly.org/chan-zuckerberg-llc-are-no-tax-breaks-plus-no-accountability-good-for-the-public/ https://chanzuckerberg.com/ https://inequality.org/great-divide/chuck-collins-in-the-nation-the-perils-of-billionaire-philanthropy/ https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/other/new-bill-would-give-donor-advised-funds-deadlines-for-distributing-billions-of-dollars-to-charities/ar-AAKWmw5 https://borgenproject.org/how-much-does-it-cost-to-end-poverty/ https://www.forbes.com/sites/peterjreilly/2015/12/04/what-is-with-this-chan-zuckerberg-llc-thing-tax-geeks-speak/?sh=15e9ab6667b8

EPISODE 22: Mandates are Rolling Out... Aug 16, 2021

We're going a little rogue today, and deviating from the content we had planned. Mandates are rolling out and we couldn't ignore that. It's having an effect on many... including Cecily and Rita. Rita, in particular, is grappling with the requirements at her own hospital, while Cecily and the rest of Canada come to terms with new requirements for federal employees, air and train travellers, and more. Are you for vaccine mandates? Or not? We talk through some of that today. Join us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/ https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/ N95 Masks and the CDC: https://blogs.cdc.gov/niosh-science-blog/2020/06/10/ppe-burden/ OSHA & Covid-19: https://www.osha.gov/sites/default/files/covid-19-healthcare-ers-reg-text.pdf

EPISODE 21: Stakeholder Capitalism & a Rant on Illogical Mandates Aug 09, 2021

Today we're looking into the topic of stakeholder capitalism: What it means, who's advocating for it, and what it really is, beneath the title. Can we really create a utopia using political measures? https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/ https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/ https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2021/01/klaus-schwab-on-what-is-stakeholder-capitalism-history-relevance/ https://sdgs.un.org/2030agenda https://www.blackrock.com/us/individual/2021-larry-fink-ceo-letter https://www.weforum.org/stakeholdercapitalism https://www.wiley.com/en-us/Stakeholder+Capitalism%3A+A+Global+Economy+that+Works+for+Progress%2C+People+and+Planet-p-9781119756132 https://www.reuters.com/article/uk-factcheck-wef-idUSKBN2AP2T0

EPISODE 20: Bio-Digital Convergence Aug 02, 2021

In today's episode, we ask the question 'What Does it Mean to be Human?' We discuss the topic bio-digital convergence, and its impact on humans, nature, the way we live our lives, and how it reconciles with a Christian worldview. This is a topic we've been thinking a lot about, and we can't wait to hear what you think about it! instagram.com/ritarogersco instagram.com/cecily.dickey https://www.draper.com/ https://www.draper.com/news-releases/equipping-insects-special-service https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5984274/ https://horizons.gc.ca/en/2020/02/11/exploring-biodigital-convergence/ https://www.forbes.com/sites/worldeconomicforum/2016/11/10/shopping-i-cant-really-remember-what-that-is-or-how-differently-well-live-in-2030/?sh=501d7c721735 https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-53956683 https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/technology/what-to-know-about-neuralink-elon-musk-s-brain-computer-interface-project/ar-BB18k8XW https://www.darpa.mil/work-with-us/ai-next-campaign

EPISODE 19: Mandates and Declinations Jul 19, 2021

Rita is flying solo on this episode as she talks about mandates and declinations. This is not just for nurses (so don't skip this!), and that short description only scratches the surface of what she brings in this episode. https://www.eeoc.gov/laws/guidance/waht-you-should-know-workplace-religious-accomodation https://www.icandecide.org https://www.instagram.com/p/CGYZLsAJyRa/?utm_medium=copy_link https://aclj.org/

EPISODE 18: Can Anyone Force You to do Anything? Jul 05, 2021

In this episode, Rita and Cecily talk about what force really is, and the difference between freedom, liberty and Christian freedom. Rita's pretty fired up, and we're joined by a frog who just really wanted his voice heard.

EPISODE 16: Minds That Change. Part 1. Jun 21, 2021

We've never encountered a more polarized time (in our lifetime). This can lead to deep division, or it can lead to growth. Over the next 2 weeks, we're hearing from 4 women who have chosen growth rather than division. Today, we're pleased to introduce Heather and Rachelle. Heather found herself motivated by the events of this year to start homeschooling. Rachelle found herself going from finding offense to finding understanding. Both of these women shared so well! https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/ https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/ https://www.instagram.com/rachelleugalde/ https://www.instagram.com/brownandcodesigns/ https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/real-talk-with-rachelle/id1541527962

EPIDOSDE 15: Present-Focused vs. Future-Focused Jun 14, 2021

EPISODE 14: Careless Words Jun 07, 2021

In this episode, we talk about how careless words are frequently spoken. We breakdown a few popular words and phrases to make sure we're not blinded by the grain of truth, but seeing the WHOLE truth.

EPISODE 13: The Divided North American Heart. May 31, 2021

We talk about the value of hardships... and how the lack of them may have the damaging effect of causing us to love our lives too much. We talk about how the past year has been difficult, but that difficulty shouldn't be wasted. We talk about the global church and how it's flourishing where they are facing the most hardships... as opposed to the shrinking American and Canadian church. There's also a lively debate over jumbo hot-dogs, smokies and bratwursts, and an epic parenting speech by Rita.

EPISODE 12: The Voices We Value May 24, 2021

There's no denying that there are voices we value, and voices that we don't value. So, how can you be sure that you're valuing voices that are positive and truth-filled?

EPISODE 11 - Let's Pick Rita's Brain, Part 2 May 20, 2021

EPISODE 10: Let's Pick Rita's Brain... May 17, 2021

It has been quite the year. Throughout the year, Rita (a cardiovascular ICU nurse) has been speaking up about what she has been seeing in the world of health care.

EPISODE 9: Here's to the Nurses and the Moms! May 10, 2021

In this episode, Rita and Cecily are giving a nod to both Nurse's Week and Mother's Day. We spend some time reflecting on our nursing careers. We talk about the things that have made us cry, the things that will always stick with us, the things that have shaped us, the things that keep us going, and the things that have made us move on. We also talk about being Mom's... the weight of it, the beauty of it... and some of the insecurities it brings out. We hope you enjoy this episode!

Self Censorship. What it is, why it's become so prevalent, and what to do about it. PLUS... how we really feel about doing this podcast..

In this episode, we're talking education. Rita and Cecily have chosen different paths for educating their children, but the goal is the same. What are your goals for your child's education?

What's best for your family? https://www.instagram.com/cecily.dickey/ https://www.instagram.com/ritarogersco/ https://www.americanboard.org/blog/11-facts-about-the-=history-of-education-in-america/ https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/john_dewey

EPISODE 3: Social Pressure Mar 29, 2021

Peer pressure isn’t confined to high school hallways... it follows us into adulthood. But, we have to be aware enough to identify it. Today we're talking about how we can make sure social pressure doesn't cause us to compromise our values, or the way we live. https://practicalpie.com/asch-line-study/ https://youtu.be/iRh5qy09nNw https://youtu.be/mOUEC5YXV8U https://youtu.be/-7iN0V-GbM0
