We're joined by RuthAnn Zimmerman on this episode. A former Old-Order Mennonite, RuthAnn shares her journey to Jesus, their exit from their community, their entry into the "modern world," and how they've cultivated the life they feel God called their family to. We talk about family, parenting, nutrition, homesteading, work ethic and how her story is not her identity... and neither is yours. If you're seeking some peace, you'll truly appreciate this interview.

We're joined by Christian Watson of 1924 US. Through 1924 US, Christian gives life to brands through his art, creates product, and tells the stories that need to be told through stunning visuals and artwork. Though Christian has a large following with a diverse set of beliefs and values, he doesn't shy away from standing firm in his own beliefs in everything that he does. He blends his values into his art, and in this conversation we go deep into politics, the election, family, art and beyond.

*disclaimer pornography and abuse are discussed*

Katy Faust is back on the podcast for the 3rd time to discuss her new collaborative book, Pro-Child Politics: Why Every Cultural Economic and National Issues Is a Matter of Justice for Children. *conversation may not be suitable for young ears*

This conversation is filled with passion and conviction as Katy describes how politics can either support or destroy the most vulnerable- children.

We cover everything from pornography, gender ideology and border security, to the economy, family, life, debt and everything in between. Worth noting is how all of this flows from the roots of ESG. 

Listen and share this important episode with your representative!

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/

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/

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.

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/

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/

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/

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/

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.

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

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/

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.

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!

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/

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/

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/

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/

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.

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

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)

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/

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.

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.

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.

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!

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.

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

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!

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/

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

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/

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/

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

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.

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/

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

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

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

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/

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/

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

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/

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/

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

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.

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.

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.

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.
