John Hoogenakker Unboxing | Dopesick The Drug That Addicted America

From drama to comedy, film, acclaimed television series, and on stage, John Hoogenakker has made a name for himself over the years bringing the vivid, dynamic characters to life on screen. This year Hoogenakker can be seen appearing on Amazon’s highly anticipated drama series “Jack Ryan” opposite John Krasinski. The series follows up-and-coming CIA analyst Jack Ryan (Krasinski) who is thrust into a dangerous field assignment for the first time and uncovers a pattern in terrorist communication that launches him into the middle of a dangerous gambit with a new breed of terrorism. Hoogenakker shines as Matice, a tough and salty American who works black ops for the CIA. At first skeptical of what appears to be a desk jockey, he quickly develops a new respect for Ryan after seeing him handle himself in the field. When Hoogenakker is not on sets around the world, he enjoys spending time with his family and being outside as much as possible.John also acted in the popular show called Dopesick based on the bestselling book by Beth Macy of the same name.

Joshua Broome Unboxing | From Porn Star To Pastor An Extraordinary Story of Restoration

"My name is Joshua Broome and there was a 6 year period of my life where I was one of the most successful adult film stars in the world. I obtained fame, wealth, and traveled the world all to find out that none of those would fill the emptiness in my heart. I have been appearing on podcasts, tv shows, and standing on stages for the last five years telling God’s story In my life. I have overcome depression, battling thoughts of suicide, and the emotional scars that come with doing 1,000+ pornographic films. Today I am a passionate communicator of a message of restoration. I am healed through the life giving power found in Jesus and spent years replacing lies with God’s truth. Today I have been married for five years, we have three sons, and I have devoted my life to those who feel like their life is over because of a circumstance or situation. It’s never too late to change the course of your life."
