S6 Ep1: Unreal Hollow Earth Drawings, Part 2

Come with me my friends into the strange “inner world” of—one of the unreal hollow earth drawings. I decided I needed to narrow down to one drawing for our story. Captain John Cleves's Symmes jr, (captain of the U.S. Army, starting as an Ensign in 1802, and honorably discharged 13 years later in 1815 as a captain). After that he tried working as a trader, but that didn't work out so he embraced his theory of the Hollow Earth. In fact he did more than give his theory a big hug.  In 1818, Captain Symmes made a declaration (of the conclusion of his hypothesis)—before gathering and analyzing the data. In his conclusion (minus the data), he pledged his belief on his very life… but, he had the scientific process out of order. And the zeal he had for his idea wasn't coming from science... The drawing of the Symmes concentric spheres theory, shows a jawbreaker-like layer upon layer, imagined-view, of the inside of the earth—illustrating Symmes' ideas of what the internal “levels” of the earth could have looked like. The drawing of the Symmes hole was done in pen and ink with the “hole” cutting through the arctic circle. Eight countries cross into the Arctic circle, but the drawing showed the earth cored like a baked apple; minus the filling. He was betting there was an enormous hole that went right through the earth, pole to pole, and the drawing showed the imagined layers inside.  I was feeling sure of my research and --no holes– then wha?!? An article from the  Smithsonian magazine explained in  “A Mysteriously Massive Hole in Antarctic Ice Has Returned” article there are these things, these holes, called polynyas. You're kidding me, right? Quote “hole the size of Maine has opened in the wintertime sea ice surrounding Antarctica. Though these holes, called polynyas, are not uncommon around Earth's southernmost continent, one hasn't been spotted in this location since the 1970's, reports Heather Brady of National Geographic.”1. If I'm not mistaken, one of the causes of these massive ice holes is an upwelling of warm water caused by the likes of a cyclone—baby hurricane's.  The polynyas are not a Symmes hole...

Welcome to the Whispering Gallery podcast! I'm Suzanne Nikolaisen and if this isn't your first rodeo - er, time listening, you know that together we seek out the spooky, unusual and fascinating stories from the art world—to understand the art and the related “unknown” a little better, and boy—howdy, did I find another “strange” doozy of a pseudoscience story for you today! Im all researched out and can give you the downlow on unreal hollow earth drawings! Have you heard about the Hollow Earth theory? It may have been a conspiracy theory you easily dismissed, but there are some drawings of what the space was imagined to look like, not to mention hollow-earthers (is that a demographic?) both credible and -incredible- people who are part of the story including Leonhard Eeuler, Swiss Mathematician, Cyrus Reed Teed, American physician who ended up thinking he was the messiah. Edmud Haley (as in Haley's comet) and hero Admiral Byrd and his not so secret diary and–shang-ri-la like story. It's out there. And in America there was John Cleves Symmes. The illustrations themselves are in pen and ink diagramming the hollow earth as early infographics that are a bit scary, as only a fantastical, conspiracy theory-ish, geography-meets-sci-fi stories (about a crazy big hole at the North Pole, and the South Pole leading to the center of the earth) can be. You just can't make this stuff up. Oh wait—they did. Imaginations galore! And Science doesn't care what you believe or draw, it doesn't make it real. It's not a new idea. The hollow earth theory is kind of like the retro toy, the easy bake oven. comes complete with easy access points at the poles called "Symmes Holes" that lead down into the inside world of the hollow earth, with it's own sun or illumination. Details differing depending on the person. The occasional theorist even dipping a finger into the metaphorical cake batter with other strange phenomena like UFOs (or UAP's), simply put the details of an imagined world. In the end out of the oven comes instead of the perfect tiny cakes we love, empty pans, thin air. From GEEK'S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY CULTURE 12.11.20 11:44 AM on Wired.com's article The Hollow Earth Theory Isn't So Funny Anymore - which shares more about Owen Egerton and his book “Hollow” one of npr's books of the year in 2017.   "While he was writing the book, Egerton viewed the Hollow Earth Theory as a bit of harmless fun, but recent events have made him reconsider that view. “When I was writing about the Hollow Earth, I was celebrating people's ability to believe what was obviously not true,” he says. “But as the book came to be, and as Donald Trump was elected, I found more and more that those conspiracy theories weren't so cute, that that power could move in a bunch of different ways—and a dangerous way."

Sports is a big business, but it's changing dramatically in the era of streaming and the decline of the cable bundle. Old leagues are trying to adapt (see: Major League Baseball's controversial pitch clock), while new franchises pop seemingly out of nowhere (see: Formula One). Meanwhile, the sports media landscape is becoming more fragmented, with new players like Netflix and Apple competing aggressively for broadcasting rights. Adam Seaborn, sports media analyst and Head of Partnerships at Toronto-based media company Playmaker Capital, joins us on this episode to break down everything that's going on in the business of sports today, how it's being shaped by bigger trends in media and tech, and what's coming next.

Adam Seaborn is a sports media analyst and head of partnerships at Playmaker Capital. Last year, the Nation Network was purchased for $15 million and perhaps a few eyebrows went up. By 2023 standards, it appears to be a bargain given the dissolution of notable sports radio properties that have disappeared in markets like Calgary, Vancouver, Hamilton and Winnipeg. Of note, Maryann Turke who ran Bell for a number of years, and also worked at the NFL is the company's board director. This is a sector of the content economy that has value with a long runway for growth.
