As a mother, I was constantly entertained by the animated personality of my first-born daughter. She was constantly expressing her observations of the world around her, coupled with learning the English language, and combining the two in her unique creation of expressions and phrases. Now, as a grandmother, my grandchildren provide me with the same level of entertainment, with their unique style of communicating how the world looks through their eyes.
I’m pretty stoked that Jakob Dylan, the youngest of Bob Dylan’s sons; has his first solo project coming out on June 10th.
Jakob used to be the front man for Wallflowers who had some mild success in the 90’s, their biggest hit being “One Headlight”. Since the hits,Wallflowers has recorded a bunch of music for TV Movies and shows including CSI…which I also dig!
The project will be available at my favorite third place in the universe, Starbucks on June 10th.
Tonight we had our largest live listening audience since starting the show. Thanks to everyone who was part of the show at Humble O Radio.
Tonight we talked about
“What it means to call ourselves a Christian”
We’ll say goodbye to Pastor Bob
International actress, comedian, and motivational speaker Joann Pflug joined us.
JoAnn starred in the feature film M*A*S*H as well as TV series Candid Camera, The Fall Guy, Quincy and the game show Match Game and other famous roles. She talked about her conversion experience and being baptized in the pool at Pat Boone’s house and eating off the same plate as Hollwood great, Jimmy Stewart.
JoAnn has a million stories and she is hilarious, hopefully she will join us again in the near future for ROUND 2!
As of last Monday, we now know that soil management is one major point in the organic rationale, and it’s not actually cow doo-doo. A couple of years back, CTV (one of Canada’s national television networks) aired a comparison of the nutrient value of a potato today and fifty years ago.
I didn’t know potatoes used to contain Vitamin C. Apparently they basically don’t anymore, so I guess I wasn’t missing anything. At least in one sense. Also, potatoes now have only about half the Vitamin A they used to. There’s also genetic selection by growers to blame, but we’ll tackle that one another time.
Ultimately, the organic concept is not just about how food is grown, or whether it makes better food, but whether it makes a better life overall. In order to be a certified organic grower, for instance, the entire growing chain must be organic, not just the final product. The soil must be chemical-free for a certain period (length of time depends on the certifying body), the seed must be organically sourced, the greenhouse seedlings must be chemical-free, and of course, we don’t use synthetic chemical controls on the food.
Soil management is the core of organic growing. Soil depletion provides one possible rationale for why organic foods don’t weigh in better than synthetically-produced ones in nutrient value, when you look at the long-term changes in food nutrition. So, here’s to dirt. Oh, and cow doo-doo. But sustainability is not just a practice; it’s a cultural movement, one that a lot of Christians have joined. What are the implications?
Tonight (Tuesday - July 31, 2007) at 7:30 PM EDT was another episode of Humble O Radio.
Humble O Radio is a net based LIVE INTERACTIVE Talk Show hosted by Christian Comedian Marty Danielsand Pastor Bob Lamb. The show is a fun, funny conversation about today’s events including Life, Culture and Faith and how each one of those areas impact the other.
I want to thanks to my special guest co-hosts over the last couple of weeks while Bob was sick, Brian and Shawn Chrisagis better known as “The Chrisagis Brothers” Over the last 20 years Brian and Shawn have rubbed elbows with Hollywood Superstars and some of the elite ministries in North America.
Tonight we’ll be talking about The Sin of Christian Celebrity and how it impacts and skews our view of who Christ is and what the faith is about.
