The Silent Pandemic: Understanding Grief and Finding Help with Doug Lawrence (Ep. 220)

In this heartfelt live episode from Eagle Pass, I welcome internationally certified mentor and author Doug Lawrence to unpack grief—why it’s misunderstood, how it shows up differently for everyone, and what genuine support looks like, especially during the holidays. We explore the evolution of mentoring from command-and-tell to trust-based guidance, how structured and unstructured mentoring can bolster mental health, and why asking for help isn’t weakness but wisdom. Doug shares how losing his wife after 43 years reshaped his understanding of grief, the importance of communication and boundaries around holiday invitations, and practical ways friends and workplaces can truly support the grieving. We also touch on closure, the role of mentors as active listeners, and why grief has no end date—only a personal, ongoing healing journey.

Plus, I open up about my own experiences with loss, seasonal struggles, and the pressure to “be festive,” offering an honest look at coping in real time. We close with where to find Doug and his book, Grief, The Silent Pandemic, and a reminder that our live shows stream across multiple platforms with replays available anytime.

Judges: When Everyone Did What Was Right in Their Own Eyes (Ep. 219)

In this Sunday Bible Study episode of The Joe Rooz Show, I guide you through a sweeping, practical overview of the Book of Judges as part of our dispensations series. We set the historical stage after Joshua’s death, explore Israel’s repeated cycle of sin, suffering, supplication, and salvation, and unpack why “every man did that which was right in his own eyes” (Judges 21:25) serves as the book’s key verse. We look closely at Gideon, Jephthah, and Samson—their faith, failures, and how God’s mercy shines through—while drawing everyday applications on separation, compromise, parenting, and trusting God through trials. I challenge you to read Judges this week with fresh eyes, note its practical principles, and consider how rehearsing God’s victories in your home and church can safeguard the next generation’s faith.

We also recap recent and upcoming programs, invite questions and feedback, and encourage you to join us live for future studies as we continue through the Law and prepare for what’s ahead in the series. Stay connected, share the episode, and let us know where you’d like the study to go next.

In this Saturday crypto psychic edition, I welcome back our resident crypto psychic, Marisa Lee, for a candid, high-energy catch‑up on the roller‑coaster crypto markets and her 2026 predictions. We dig into why large-cap coins like Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, Chainlink, and Solana could move first on ETF flows and bank recommendations, why some altcoins (including Algorand) may lag short term due to portfolio rotation, and why patience and accumulation still matter. Marisa lays out a near-term window—late December into January/February—for meaningful market improvement, plus a broader 2026 outlook featuring more altcoin ETFs, potential tax changes, and macro shifts she believes can set up a stronger second half of the year. We also roam into precious metals, stablecoin payouts for creators, platform monetization headaches, safety cautions for large public events, geopolitical flashpoints, and the politics-meets-markets dynamic that could influence sentiment. It’s an unscripted, funny, and frank conversation that blends market talk with real-life challenges and a few unexpected laughs along the way.

Resources and mentions (non-sponsor): XRP, Bitcoin, Ethereum, Chainlink, Solana, Algorand; discussion of crypto ETFs; stablecoin creator payouts; Rumble and YouTube creator tools; market mindset: accumulation, time horizons, and diversification.

Watchmen in a Complacent Age: Apologetics, Hope, and Holiness with David Libby (Ep. 217)

In this Friday night episode of The Joe Rooz Show, I welcome homesteader, theologian, and author David Libby for a deeply encouraging, Scripture-saturated conversation on suffering, God’s sovereignty, apologetics, and authentic Christian living. From his family’s years-long battle with Lyme disease to the theological foundations that sustained him, David shares how head knowledge becomes heart-level faith through trials. We dig into why suffering exists, how God refines believers through hardship, the harmony of divine sovereignty and human responsibility, and what it means to stay watchful and courageous in a complacent church age. We also talk homesteading life in rural Maine, living self-sufficiently, and cultivating a life of prayer, Scripture, and obedience as the world grows darker. David closes us in a powerful prayer—an exhortation to rise, watch, and fight the good fight with steadfast hope. If this conversation challenged or encouraged you, let me know via the site contact form or email. And if you missed my recent chat with Werner Neff, catch the replay—then meet us for Sunday’s Bible study as we continue our walk through the Law and trace how it points to Christ.

Dogs Chase Cars and Reporters Chase Truth: A Veteran Journalist Reflects (Ep. 215)

Broadcasting from Eagle Pass, Texas, I kick off the week with returning guest and veteran journalist Patrick Sangimino to explore how American journalism changed over the last four decades—from the heyday of local newspapers to today’s social-media-driven news cycle. We talk trust, bias, and the pivotal role of community reporting in holding local officials accountable, plus how national narratives, COVID coverage, polling, and predictive markets have warped public perception. Patrick shares stories from his 40-year career, why Watergate inspired a generation, how unnamed sources erode credibility, and why athletes and politicians bypass the press via direct-to-fan platforms. We also touch on his book, Dogs Chase Cars, its upcoming audiobook, and his new project about life after a newsroom career. Along the way: holiday reflections, family moments, the joy of minor league and high school sports, and why reading long-form still matters in a 280-character world.

Resources and links mentioned: Patrick’s website at patricksangimino.com; follow Patrick on X at and on Instagram at . His novel Dogs Chase Cars is available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble, with an audiobook in progress. For show updates, visit joerooz.com and join the email list.

House of Blood: A Dispensational Tour of the Tabernacle (Ep. 214)

In this Sunday Bible study, I walk through the Tabernacle from a dispensational perspective, showing how its structure and rituals point directly to Jesus Christ. We explore Hebrews 9–10 and Exodus 29 to connect the brazen altar, laver, table of showbread, golden candlesticks, altar of incense, veil, and Holy of Holies with the work of Christ—our High Priest who entered once with His own blood for eternal redemption. I break down the Ark of the Covenant, the mercy seat, cherubim, and the contents of the ark, and survey the rich symbolism of the tabernacle’s materials (gold, silver, brass, colors, linens, skins, and wood). We trace the progressive revelation from Adam to the Passover, highlight the awe and separation required to approach God, and preview prophetic implications in Ezekiel 40–48 for millennial worship. The core message: you cannot approach God without the blood—behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world.

I also outline seven “steps” through the tabernacle as a picture of salvation and sanctification—sacrifice at the brazen altar (the cross), cleansing at the laver (separation), feeding on the bread of life, walking in the light, prayer as incense, and entering the presence of God. We close with an invitation to salvation and a call to live with holy reverence as the dwelling place of God.

From the Dakota to the Dark Corners: Robert Rosen and Dr. Katherine Hayes (Ep. 213)

https://rumble.com/v72n4zy-the-joe-rooz-show-ep.-213.html?mref=1m6wz&mc=ezkvf

In this packed Friday night show, I kicked things off from Asylum Studios in Eagle Pass, Texas and welcomed two compelling guests. First up was Robert Rosen, author of Nowhere Man: The Final Days of John Lennon. We dug into the origins of his book, his access to Lennon’s diaries, and how he blended investigation with restrained imagination—especially around Lennon’s vivid dream practices, occult interests, yoga and numerology, and his surprisingly intense fixation on Paul McCartney. Robert also shared how a brief born-again phase drew unexpected attention from Christian media and why he believes Nowhere Man captures Lennon’s inner world like no other biography.

In hour two, I sat down with Dr. Katherine Hayes—author, editor, educator, and host of Murder, Mystery & Mayhem Laced with Morality. We explored her multicultural roots, her path from ministry curricula to thrillers, and the heart behind her novel A Fifth of the Story: trauma, truth, and the power of that ‘one-fifth’—what God sees. Katherine talked crafting complex characters (including a white supremacist), writing authentic male voices, and serving military families alongside her veteran husband. We closed with community notes, upcoming guests, and an invite to our Sunday Bible study series on dispensations.

Guests:
Robert Rosen
Dr. Katherine Hutchinson-Hayes

Old Fashioned's, New Mysteries: Russell Little and Bob LeMent Go Off-Script (Ep. 212)

https://rumble.com/v72jwtk-the-joe-rooz-show-ep.-212.html?mref=1m6wz&mc=ezkvf

Tonight I hosted a lively, free‑wheeling two-hour show from Eagle Pass, Texas. In hour one, trial lawyer-turned-novelist Russell Little joined me to talk life, writing, bourbon, ci**rs, and ultimately his hurricane-drenched thriller, Murder by Storm. We swapped stories about Houston, West Texas, old fashioned's (Maker’s Mark vs. 1792), dogs, pasta sauce, and how real hurricanes reshape people and crime scenes—then dug into how Russell builds characters from unforgettable real-life personalities, why Harvey was the perfect backdrop for a murder mystery, and the challenge of writing a razor-sharp antagonist named Marilyn. We also touched on his children’s books inspired by African wildlife and his granddaughter.

Hour two, the Blue Cat himself—comedian and Static Radio co-host Bob LeMent—returned for a fast, funny riff on 24 years of unscripted podcasting, the evolution from “internet radio” to today’s all-media landscape, avatars, AR/VR’s bumpy road, and why video podcasts are just media now. We talked traffic, living in flyover country, why most creators still self-censor, what AI really is (a supercharged plagiarism machine), and where digital personas may be headed. Bob gave shoutouts to his wife’s recent wins, plugged Static Radio, and promised to come back for a holiday round two. A big thanks to our producing team and to all of you for joining in—see you Friday at 7 PM CT for more live talk and laughs.

From Pop-Ins to PopCon: Eagle Pass’ Fan Fest Preview Revealed (Ep. 211)

https://rumble.com/v72gvw0-the-joe-rooz-show-ep.-211.html?mref=1m6wz&mc=ezkvf

Broadcasting from Eagle Pass, I kicked off an unplanned Monday show with a candid mood check, some playful banter about “pop-ins,” and a quick riff on why we’ve recently shifted away from heavy politics toward more author and creator interviews. Then we dove into a lively conversation with guest Dannie Mendoza, president of Eagle Pass PopCon. Dannie announced a special mini Eagle Pass PopCon event slated for January 31 at the Eagle Pass Mall (free admission, open-to-close), featuring professional cosplayers, a “mini” celebrity guest (wrestler or voice actor), vendors, family activities, and a three-tier costume contest (kids, teens, adults) judged by pro cosplayers. He also teased a big reveal at the mini event: the date, location, and star guest for the main Eagle Pass PopCon 3 later in the year. Dannie explained how PopCon grew from a marketing initiative connected to his energy/solar business into a community-centric, family-friendly celebration that draws visitors from beyond Texas. We covered vendor and sponsor opportunities, special limited-time discounts, and how supporting PopCon can also support this show. Audience Q&A touched on collectibles (yes, action figures), desired 3D-printed originals, and how out-of-town interest is shaping the event. We closed with where to follow PopCon news, a reminder that admission is free, and notes on upcoming guests and show schedule. Join us Wednesday for author Russell Little and the return of Blue Cat (Bob Lement)!

Tune in for a podcast where the conversation flows freely, where every guest brings their unique perspective, and where you can truly expect "anything and everything."

A Kingdom of Priests: Passover’s Aftermath and the Hope of Christ’s Reign (Ep. 210)

https://rumble.com/v72f8j8-the-joe-rooz-show-bible-study-sunday-ep.-210.html?mref=1m6wz&mc=ezkvf

In this Bible Study Sunday, I reflect on the spirit of Thanksgiving, genuine friendship, and gratitude for our growing community. From there, we continue our multi-week series on dispensations, revisiting last week’s Passover study and moving into a doctrinal exploration of kingdoms, crowns, and the law—why the Bible devotes so much space to the rise and fall of governments, how Moses served as a king in Jeshurun, and how Israel was called to be a kingdom of priests. We trace the “path of the crowns” from Adam to Noah to Abraham to Moses, contrast the kingdom of heaven and the kingdom of God, and consider how amillennial approaches misplace hope in political reform rather than in Christ. Digging into Scripture (Deuteronomy 33, Exodus 4, Leviticus 26), we examine God’s covenant promises and warnings, the reality of divine blessing and discipline, and the persistent pattern of human collapse revealed in Judges. We discuss why Satan’s opposition broadened from individuals to an entire nation, why antisemitism recurs through history, and how God preserves Israel because of His unconditional covenant. Along the way, we touch on seven baptisms in Scripture, the difference between inspirational and doctrinal applications, and the sustaining hope of the rapture. The takeaway: only Jesus Christ—Prophet, Priest, and King—can restore what the first Adam lost, and our trust must be in Him, not in human systems. Join us next week as we begin tabernacle worship and how people were saved under the law.
