Use Your Words

Letting Go Of Things That Bother Us

This week we continue our conversation on Fear and talk about what it means to fear God and if we should have this continually or not. What does it mean to fear God - and does it mean the same thing as fearing other things? And why is the fear of God actually healthy compared to last weeks version of fear.

Fear - Part 2

In this episode, we talk about fear - and Aaron starts with the assessment that living with Fear is a healthy thing. We talk about the physical responses the body has when you are under constant stress, the impact of the stress hormones has both short and long term. This then gets Paul talking about how he has gotten fed up with some in the church that say the only way to get better with mental health is to just be a better Christian. And you get to hear what Paul sounds like when he is under stress. Use Your Words podcast is passion project of two people from Southeastern Wisconsin.

Fear - Part 1

The Covid virus has shown how fragile the entire supply chain system is. We have seen a rise in times to get everything from basic supplies to furniture. We have shortages in multiple resources - sand, petroleum, truckers, chicken and more - which is causing issues around the globe. Yet in the United States we still have it better then most of the world. Even though inflation is causing issues, we still are for the most part able to purchase what we need even though it is more expensive than it has been in a while.

Global supply chain shortages, a sand shortage, Venezuela, and patience

With technology advancing the way it is - we have a conversation about how technology is changing how we live. While most people have been used to carrying around their drivers license/insurance cards this may be a thing of the past as these slowly go digital. We have a conversation as well if Star Trek is a valid vision of the future or if humans are generally lazy when things are taken care of us for us automatically. That being said - we do start out the conversation with Aaron learning what it means to be red pilled - something which if a spoiler alert if you don't know where this comes from as well.

Are we headed for a Wall-e type future?

A few days ago was the 20th anniversary of the September 11th attacks of 2001. I (Paul) was in college as a freshmen and Aaron was in kindergarten when the attacks happened. We talk about what we remember from that day, what Aaron learned in middle and high school after the attacks, as well as we listen to a few recordings from that day.

20 years on from 9/11

When all you do is the same thing over and over again - that is a symptom of a stagnant culture. With culture at large continually re-releasing the same thing (movies/music/games/etc) we are on the verge of being in that same stagnant pattern. This week Paul and Aaron talks about the issues with being in a stagnant culture and what does and doesn't count toward a stagnant culture.

Are we a culture in decline?

As we get older we seem to go through various phases of life. Unfortunately as we move through these phases - some things seem to remain constant and that is that we tend to loose friends and the number of people we interact with goes down. Some of these phases of life include college, first job, moving out on your own, and then every five or so years in life. Let's talk about what these phases are - and how life has changed from someone in their 35-40 phase as well as someone in their 25-30 phase.

Seasons Of Life - And How Life Changes

We continue our conversation this week directly where we left off last week. Last week Paul was just starting to talk about the Mike Lindell Technology Symposium and the "evidence" that was released at said conference. Paul then goes over - from a person who works in technology - why some of the claims made by Mike Lindell are outlandish and exaugurated at best and downright lies at worst - and that is bad because he continually talks about his faith - and as Christians we should be the city on a hill telling truth even we don't like it.

Apple, CSAM, Privacy, Hashing, And Fake News - Part 2

Apple recently announced that they are going to start scanning for CSAM on iPhones locally. Currently it has been reported that they may have been doing this on their servers "in the cloud" but with the move down to the local phone - people have started to get concerned about intrusion. It has been alleged by various people that this new CSAM scanning will invade their privacy and get them flagged as having inappropriate material if they have pictures of their children on the phone and they happen to not be fully clothed. Like all fake news in the world today - it has little representation to the actual truth - but has just enough reality in it to make people believe it while stirring up their fears.

Apple, CSAM, Privacy, Hashing, And Fake News - Part 1

Should we rename our show to "counseling Hour With Aaron?" While this episode didn't start out with that in mind, it ended up being another hour of counseling with Aaron. In this episode we talk about how mental, physical, and spiritual health all intersect and how they impact one another. How things that are watched/worn/read/etc all impact our brains and our spiritual health in multiple ways. Use Your Words podcast is passion project of two people from Southeastern Wisconsin.

How does mental, physical, and spiritual health interact? Should we rename our show to "counseling Hour With Aaron?"

A few episodes we talked about how Facebook, Twitter, etc can choose to enforce their policies how they see fit and that by doing this this did not come afoul of the first amendment. Well in July this started to change as the White House admitted that their officials have started to flag material for social media to remove - which is a change in the protocol of the social media companies no longer deciding on what to keep and remove, but instead is now taking it's ques directly from the government. It was also reported that the White House is in talks with carriers to prevent the spreading of misinformation about the Covid Vaccine through SMS messages - something that should be concerning. Of course this has been walked back a little but to what extent? Use Your Words podcast is passion project of two people from Southeastern Wisconsin.

Government flagging social media to be removed, In Talks with carriers to monitor SMS messages

As summer 2021 rolls on, various cities around the United States (and various countries around the world) are starting to re-introduce mask mandates. As that is happening it was revealed recently that Dr. Fauci is reconsidering a nationwide mask mandate recommendation from the CDC. With all of this talk - could we see another lockdown? If we did what would it's impact be? Are the numbers really that scary? Let's talk about it. Use Your Words podcast is passion project of two people from Southeastern Wisconsin.

Hey Church: My Personal Story Of Mental Health Issues

Difficult conversations can be just that – difficult. Sometimes we are timid or don’t know the word/phrasing to use to convey the thoughts we have. Sometimes those thoughts break our brains a little bit and we may falter to explain what we are thinking – those concepts are in our brains but they haven’t found their way out yet and we are at a loss of words trying to explain these thoughts floating in our heads to others. We really do ourselves a disservice when we fail to engage in these conversations – no matter how difficult or uncomfortable they may be at times. We are three friends who have had these conversations over the years, and while we are serious and dedicated to these conversations we like to have fun during these conversations as well. Join us as we have these conversations - and even if we take positions that you don't agree with - engage with us (respectfully) and use your words.
