Full Text of ReadingsFriday of the Thirteenth Week in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 381The Saint of the day is Saint Elizabeth of PortugalSaint Elizabeth of Portugal’s Story Elizabeth is usually depicted in royal garb with a dove or an olive branch. At her birth in 1271, her father Pedro III, future king of Aragon, was reconciled with his father James, the reigning monarch. This proved to be a portent of things to come. Under the healthful influences surrounding her early years, she quickly learned self-discipline and acquired a taste for spirituality. Thus fortunately prepared, Elizabeth was able to meet the challenge when at the age of 12, she was given in marriage to Denis, king of Portugal. She was able to establish for herself a pattern of life conducive to growth in God's love, not merely through her exercises of piety, including daily Mass, but also through her exercise of charity, by which she was able to befriend and help pilgrims, strangers, the sick, the poor—in a word, all those whose need came to her notice. At the same time she remained devoted to her husband, whose infidelity to her was a scandal to the kingdom. Denis, too, was the object of many of her peace endeavors. Elizabeth long sought peace for him with God, and was finally rewarded when he gave up his life of sin. She repeatedly sought and effected peace between the king and their rebellious son Alfonso, who thought that he was passed over to favor the king's illegitimate children. She acted as peacemaker in the struggle between Ferdinand, king of Aragon, and his cousin James, who claimed the crown. And finally from Coimbra, where she had retired as a Franciscan tertiary to the monastery of the Poor Clares after the death of her husband, Elizabeth set out and was able to bring about a lasting peace between her son Alfonso, now king of Portugal, and his son-in-law, the king of Castile. Reflection The work of promoting peace is anything but a calm and quiet endeavor. It takes a clear mind, a steady spirit and a brave soul to intervene between people whose emotions are so aroused that they are ready to destroy one another. This is all the more true of a woman in the early 14th century. But Elizabeth had a deep and sincere love and sympathy for humankind, an almost total lack of concern for herself, and an abiding confidence in God. These were the tools of her success.

Durante años fue costumbre en el sistema educativo español hacer aprender a los alumnos la lista de los reyes godos. Por fortuna eso ya no es necesario, pero los reyes de la Hispania visigoda aún se siguen estudiando. Esos reyes tuvieron reinas, que en muchas ocasiones desempeñaron un papel destacado al que las crónicas de la época no suelen hacer justicia. Su influencia se dejó sentir en la política, la religión y en la misma consolidación del poder del monarca. Eso contribuyó mucho a la siempre comprometida estabilidad del reino visigodo. Las fuentes históricas, como las crónicas de Isidoro de Sevilla o el "Chronicon" de Juan de Bíclaro, ofrecen escasos detalles sobre estas mujeres, pero los indicios disponibles revelan su relevancia en la corte y la sociedad. Las reinas visigodas no sólo actuaban como consortes, sino que, en muchos casos, eran piezas importantes en las alianzas políticas. Los matrimonios entre la nobleza visigoda y otras elites, como las hispanorromanas o las francas, fortalecían la cohesión del reino. Por ejemplo, Gosvinta, esposa de los reyes Atanagildo y Leovigildo, destacó por su ambición y su papel en las intrigas cortesanas. Tras enviudar de Atanagildo, se casó con Leovigildo, consolidando su posición como una figura de autoridad. Gosvinta también participó en conflictos religiosos. Defendía el arrianismo frente al catolicismo, lo que generó muchas tensiones en un reino que buscaba la unificación religiosa. Otra figura notable fue Baddo, esposa de Recaredo, que acompañó a su esposo en la conversión al catolicismo durante el Tercer Concilio de Toledo en el año 589. Aunque las fuentes no detallan sus acciones, su presencia en un momento tan trascendental sugiere que el papel que desempeñó fue relevante. La conversión de Recaredo al catolicismo no solo unificó religiosamente al reino, sino que también integró a la población hispanorromana, y las reinas, como Baddo, fueron esenciales para legitimar estas transformaciones. El papel de las reinas también se extendía a la esfera familiar, donde influían en la educación de los herederos y en la sucesión. En un sistema donde la monarquía no siempre era hereditaria, las reinas podían actuar como regentes o mediadoras en disputas dinásticas. En el reino visigodo era común que los usurpadores se casasen con las viudas de sus predecesores para legitimarse. Eso sí, algunas reinas, como Liuvigoto, esposa de Ervigio y prima de Wamba, participaron también en conspiraciones. La vida de estas mujeres no estuvo exenta de peligros. Las intrigas palaciegas, los asesinatos y las purgas eran comunes, y muchas reinas se vieron envueltas en estos conflictos. No es mucho lo que sabemos de ellas de forma directa, pero si es fácil intuir que el reino visigodo de Toledo también fue mecido por manos femeninas. Con la invasión musulmana de 711, el reino visigodo colapsó, y con él, el rastro de sus reinas se desvaneció. Traerlas de nuevo a la vida es lo que trata de hacer Daniel Gómez Aragonés con un libro que acaba de ver la luz: “Reinas godas: Las mujeres que pusieron la semilla de España”, publicado por La Esfera de los Libros y que salió al mercado hace unos meses.

The Sixena murals are late 12th to early 13th-century Romanesque wall paintings from the Monastery of Santa María de Sixena in Aragon. They were moved to Barcelona during the Spanish Civil War for preservation and are currently on display at the National Art Museum of Catalonia in Barcelona. On this week's podcast, we explore the ongoing debate over their place of exhibition, which highlights deeper regional and cultural tensions in Spain.  Reporter Cillian Shields visits the MNAC to learn more about the history, restoration and conservation of the frescoes. Art historian Albert Velasco explains the controversy over their location, in which Aragon claims rightful ownership and demands their immediate return to the Sixena monastery, whilst experts highlight the importance of a controlled environment for conservation and warn that moving them may cause irreparable damage due to their fragility.  Host Beth Cohen draws parallels with other relocated artworks and raises questions about the responsibility to protect cultural heritage regardless of political disputes. This week, our Catalan phrase is “Compartir és viure” - “To share is to live”. A modern and commonly used phrase in Catalonia, it expresses the idea that sharing is an essential part of a meaningful life, fostering a sense of community and human connection.

rWotD Episode 2975: Rodrigo Álvarez Welcome to Random Wiki of the Day, your journey through Wikipedia's vast and varied content, one random article at a time.The random article for Thursday, 26 June 2025, is Rodrigo Álvarez.Rodrigo Álvarez (Latin: Rudericus Aluari) (died 1187) was a Galician nobleman and crusader from the Kingdom of León. He founded the military Order of Mountjoy in 1174 and affiliated it with the Cistercian Order that he had long patronised.Rodrigo was a son of Álvaro Rodríguez and Sancha Fernández. He entered the public record in a royal charter of 13 June 1161. A sign of his landed wealth is given by the properties he held at Buján, Fafián, Goon, and Levasser, which he at one point mortgaged for 200 maravedíes. He and his brother Vermudo also came to own lands on the river Esla in the province of León, probably through their mother's second marriage to the Leonese count Pedro Alfonso. Early he received the tenencia (fief from the crown) of Allariz, where he is attested on 18 September 1162. By 1165 he was also holding the region of Lemos from the crown, and in 1168 also Monterroso. After the death of his father in January 1167 he was given the title Count, the highest rank in the kingdom, and received the tenencia of Sarria, which he held until 1171. During those four years (1168–71) he was a regular attendee of the court of King Ferdinand II. At an unknown date, Rodrigo married María, daughter of Ponce de Minerva and Estefanía Ramírez. For her bridewealth Rodrigo gave her the church of San Pelayo de Villamuriel, which she in turn granted to San Marcos de León on 3 June 1172.At an unknown date Rodrigo—in his own words, "seized by diabolical rage"—burned down the church of Santa María de Mal. On 20 February 1171, in penance for this sin, he donated the church San Salvador de Sarria to the Cathedral of Lugo. Later that year, perhaps out of guilt, he resigned his tenencias and joined the Order of Santiago. Two documents of September 1172/3 place Rodrigo, as a knight of the Order, at the court of Afonso I of Portugal in Coimbra. By 1172 Rodrigo had grown dissatisfied with the lax practices of the Order of Santiago, especially the allowance for members to marry, and he received permission from the Papal legate Jacinth to Spain to found a new confraternity in accordance with the Cistercian rule (instituta Cisterciensis ordinis). This was approved by Pope Alexander III the next year. Alexander forbade the new order to accept any former members of Santiago or to acquire any properties that might be disputed by Santiago. The use of the Cistercian rule caused some controversy at the Abbey of Cîteaux, where the chapter objected to Rodrigo's "inconstancy", but the abbot eventually approved it without the consent of the chapter, which was obtained later (by December 1175). Late in 1173 or early in 1174 Rodrigo and a few companions founded the Order of Mountjoy. Shortly afterwards his wife separated from him and later joined her mother's convent at Carrizo (founded 1176), where she would be abbess between 1184 and 1191. On 28 November 1190 she gave some more of her bridewealth to San Marcos de León and the Order of Santiago. She probably died in 1192.The rest of his life Rodrigo devoted to growing his newfound order. According to a bull of Innocent III he chose for his Order a half-red, half-white cross. He received support from Alfonso II of Aragon, who donated the castle of Alfambra to the order in return for military aid against the Muslims. He was also able to acquire estates in the Kingdom of Jerusalem, including Mountjoy, after which the order took its name. In 1176–77 he made a pilgrimage to the Holy Land. He received lands from Reginald of Châtillon that King Baldwin IV only confirmed on the condition that Rodrigo and his knights fight the Muslims continuously in the Holy Land. In 1186 an attempted merger was made with the Knights Templar, and it is possible that Rodrigo was already dying at that stage. He had almost certainly died by the autumn of 1187. He was buried in the convent of Alfambra. He had been a patron of the Cistercians. Besides founding a military order under their auspices, he endowed their foundations at Gradefes (29 September 1173) and Meira (1182).This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:16 UTC on Thursday, 26 June 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Rodrigo Álvarez on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm generative Danielle.

A finales de la antigüedad irrumpió desde la estepa un pueblo que sembraría el terror y alteraría el curso de la historia del imperio romano: los hunos. Estos nómadas ecuestres, rápidos y muy diestros en el combate, iniciaron una migración hacia el oeste en el siglo IV que empujó a otros pueblos hacia el limes romano. Su llegada forzó a pueblos germánicos como los godos a buscar refugio dentro de las fronteras del imperio Romano, un movimiento que pondría en jaque a las dos porciones del imperio y terminaría provocando la desaparición de su parte occidental. Fue en el siglo V cuando la amenaza huna alcanzó su punto álgido bajo el mando de su figura más legendaria: Atila. Nacido en algún momento a principios del siglo V, Atila, junto con su hermano Bleda, heredó el control de una gran confederación de tribus. Tras el asesinato de Bleda en el 445 (un acto atribuido por las fuentes al propio Atila), Atila consolidó su poder sin oposición, construyendo un gran imperio que se extendía desde el Cáucaso hasta el Rin. Era un estratega brillante y un líder carismático, capaz de inspirar una lealtad férrea en sus seguidores y un pavor paralizante en sus enemigos. Se decía que donde pisaba su caballo, no volvía a crecer la hierba. Con Atila los hunos no solo exigían altos tributos a los imperios romano de Occidente y Oriente, sino que también lanzaban devastadoras campañas militares que dejaban a su paso ciudades en ruinas y poblaciones diezmadas. Su campaña más famosa comenzó en el año 451, cuando Atila dirigió a sus hordas hacia las Galias. Su objetivo era saquear sus ricas provincias, pero se encontró con una resistencia formidable. En los Campos Cataláunicos (cerca de la actual Châlons-en-Champagne), Atila se encontró frente a una improbable coalición formada por las legiones romanas del general Aecio y las fuerzas visigodas del rey Teodorico. Fue una de las batallas más grandes y recordadas de la antigüedad, un choque entre el poder nómada y la resistencia romano-germánica. Aunque la batalla terminó sin un vencedor claro, Atila sufrió grandes pérdidas y su avance fue frenado, lo que le obligó a retirarse de la Galia. Lejos de estar derrotado, al año siguiente, en el 452, dirigió su atención hacia Italia. Cruzó los Alpes y asoló ciudades como Aquileya, Mediolanum (Milán) y Pavía, dejando un rastro de destrucción. Cuando se acercaba a Roma, la capital del Imperio occidental parecía condenada. Pero, en un sorprendente giro de los acontecimientos, el Papa León I el Magno, acompañado por dos senadores de alto rango, salió al encuentro de Atila a las afueras de la ciudad. Lo que se dijo en esa reunión sigue siendo un misterio, pero el resultado fue que Atila decidió perdonar a Roma y retirarse de Italia, una decisión que algunos atribuyen a la persuasión papal y otros a factores logísticos como la escasez de provisiones y una epidemia en sus filas. La retirada de Italia marcó su último gran acto. En el año 453, en la misma noche de su boda con su última esposa, Ildico, Atila murió repentinamente en su lecho, quizá por envenenamiento. Su muerte fue tan rápida como su ascenso, y con ella, el imperio huno comenzó a desintegrarse a la misma velocidad a la que se había levantado. Sin el liderazgo unificador de Atila, las tribus que había sometido se rebelaron y el poder huno se disolvió en unos pocos años. Para hablar de este tema, que es una promesa que os hicimos Federico Romero y yo hace poco más de un mes, vuelve Federico a La ContraHistoria. Lo hace de la mano de Daniel Gómez Aragonés, que nos recibe en el museo de la España mágica de Toledo, un lugar de imprescindible visita en la ciudad imperial que hoy se ha transformado en un estudio de radio.

Full Text of ReadingsMonday of the Twelfth Week in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 371The Saint of the day is Saint John FisherSaint John Fisher's Story John Fisher is usually associated with Erasmus, Thomas More, and other Renaissance humanists. His life therefore, did not have the external simplicity found in the lives of some saints. Rather, he was a man of learning, associated with the intellectuals and political leaders of his day. He was interested in the contemporary culture and eventually became chancellor at Cambridge. He had been made a bishop at 35, and one of his interests was raising the standard of preaching in England. Fisher himself was an accomplished preacher and writer. His sermons on the penitential psalms were reprinted seven times before his death. With the coming of Lutheranism, he was drawn into controversy. His eight books against heresy gave him a leading position among European theologians. In 1521, Fisher was asked to study the question of King Henry VIII's marriage to Catherine of Aragon, his brother's widow. He incurred Henry's anger by defending the validity of the king's marriage with Catherine, and later by rejecting Henry's claim to be the supreme head of the Church of England. In an attempt to be rid of him, Henry first had Fisher accused of not reporting all the “revelations” of the nun of Kent, Elizabeth Barton. In feeble health, Fisher was summoned to take the oath to the new Act of Succession. He and Thomas More refused to do so because the Act presumed the legality of Henry's divorce and his claim to be head of the English Church. They were sent to the Tower of London, where Fisher remained 14 months without trial. Finally both men were sentenced to life imprisonment and loss of goods. When the two were called to further interrogations, they remained silent. On the supposition that he was speaking privately as a priest, Fisher was tricked into declaring again that the king was not supreme head of the church in England. The king, further angered that the pope had made John Fisher a cardinal, had him brought to trial on the charge of high treason. He was condemned and executed, his body left to lie all day on the scaffold and his head hung on London Bridge. More was executed two weeks later. John Fisher’s liturgical feast is celebrated on June 22. Reflection Today many questions are raised about Christians' and priests' active involvement in social issues. John Fisher remained faithful to his calling as a priest and bishop. He strongly upheld the teachings of the Church; the very cause of his martyrdom was his loyalty to Rome. He was involved in the cultural enrichment circles as well as in the political struggles of his time. This involvement caused him to question the moral conduct of the leadership of his country. “The Church has the right, indeed the duty, to proclaim justice on the social, national and international level, and to denounce instances of injustice, when the fundamental rights of man and his very salvation demand it” (Justice in the World, 1971 Synod of Bishops).

The siblings' (conspicuously gentle?) approach to racing each other is another hot topic after the Italian Grand Prix, as is stewarding after yet another Franco Morbidelli incident.We also tackle plenty of questions from The Race Members' Club on topics including Yamaha and Honda's awful weekends, the power balance between Maverick Vinales and Pedro Acosta at KTM, and where Fabio Di Giannantonio's sudden performance came from.Want more MotoGP podcast content?

Full Text of ReadingsThe Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ Lectionary: 169The Saint of the day is Saint Thomas MoreSaint Thomas More's Story His belief that no lay ruler has jurisdiction over the Church of Christ cost Thomas More his life. Beheaded on Tower Hill, London, on July 6, 1535, More steadfastly refused to approve King Henry VIII's divorce and remarriage and establishment of the Church of England. Described as “a man for all seasons,” More was a literary scholar, eminent lawyer, gentleman, father of four children, and chancellor of England. An intensely spiritual man, he would not support the king's divorce from Catherine of Aragon in order to marry Anne Boleyn. Nor would he acknowledge Henry as supreme head of the Church in England, breaking with Rome, and denying the pope as head. More was committed to the Tower of London to await trial for treason: not swearing to the Act of Succession and the Oath of Supremacy. Upon conviction, More declared he had all the councils of Christendom and not just the council of one realm to support him in the decision of his conscience. Reflection Four hundred years later in 1935, Thomas More was canonized a saint of God. Few saints are more relevant to our time. In the year 2000, in fact, Pope John Paul II named him patron of political leaders. The supreme diplomat and counselor, he did not compromise his own moral values in order to please the king, knowing that true allegiance to authority is not blind acceptance of everything that authority wants. King Henry himself realized this and tried desperately to win his chancellor to his side because he knew More was a man whose approval counted, a man whose personal integrity no one questioned. But when Thomas More resigned as chancellor, unable to approve the two matters that meant most to Henry, the king had to get rid of him.

In this captivating episode of History Rage, host Paul Bavill welcomes the renowned historian and author Alison Weir, celebrated for her extensive work on the Tudor period. Together, they navigate the tumultuous waters of Henry VIII's reign, debunking myths and uncovering truths about his infamous marital struggles. The Myth of Henry's Brain Damage: Alison passionately disputes the widely held belief that Henry VIII suffered from brain damage following a horse riding accident in 1536. She argues that this narrative, stemming from a dubious foreign source, inaccurately portrays a sudden change in the king's character, when in fact, his violent tendencies had been developing for years.Catherine of Aragon's Marriage: Delve into the complexities of Henry's marriage to Catherine of Aragon as Alison elucidates the arguments surrounding their annulment. She highlights the significant role of canon law and the political pressures faced by Pope Clement VII, shedding light on the genuine motivations behind Henry's desire to divorce.Anne Boleyn and the Tudor Court: The episode examines the dynamics between Catherine and Anne Boleyn, challenging the romanticised narratives that often pit the two women against each other. Alison offers a nuanced perspective on Anne's character and the political machinations at play during this turbulent period.Guest Information:Discover more about Alison Weir's work by checking out her books on Tudor England.

Vocabulario, gramática… cuando aprendemos un idioma, una de las principales dificultades son los dichos, las frases hechas, las expresiones coloquiales. Ahora, una  nueva publicación facilita la posibilidad de conocer el aragonés desde el castellano. Al menos, esa parece ser la intención de Fernando Romanos y Chabier Tierz en “Diccionario de fraseolochía básica de l´aragonés” que consiguen otra cosa, demostrar como el paisaje define la lengua o al menos, su uso. Con ellos entramos en el apasionante mundo de la filología en la Torre de Babel.Pedro Abelardo, conocido como el "León de París", que fue filósofo, poeta y músico, que está considerado el primer intelectual urbano de la edad media, que falleció en 1142 y que dejó para la historia y la literatura una gran historia de amor imposible, compartida durante décadas con Eloísa, discípula, amante y esposa. Su historia de cuenta en las cartas que se cruzaron y ha sido analizada y reinterpretada decenas de veces en los siglos que vendrían después. José Luis Corral narró esta historia en una novela “El amor y la muerte” que ahora podemos leer y disfrutar en Pregunta ediciones. Con José Luis Corral hablamos de Eloísa y Abelardo.

Apologies for the lateness of this Pod Cast! In this episode Jim and Rich cover everything from Aragon! The kick it off with some great listener feedback about semi-automated ride height devices. Then they go over the news of Martins contract issues and the semi bombshell of Toprak signing a one year deal to race a Pramac Yamaha in 2026. Finally they guys cover the racing. The Moto3 Class was a classic with the twist of making sure you picked the right tire. This odd set of conditions resulted in a first time winner Munoz who just barely defeated the new rookie sensation Quiles! The Moto2 race was the best of the weekend and also included a first time winner. Moreira rode through the pack and chased down race leader Oncu in the closing laps. Oncu never quit and kept pushing. On the last lap at the last turn Oncu rode around the outside of Moreira to win the closest Moto2 race ever by 0.003 seconds!! MotoGp was a bit boring as Marc Marquez lead every secession ook pole position and won then sprint and on Sunday lead every lap in dominate fashion to win the main event. Domination like this has not been seen in this class since Marc himself did the same thing a decade ago at the German GP in 2015. This is the domination that we all feared when Marc was chosen to ride the factory Ducati. On the bright side Pecco appears to have found the feeling again on his Ducati and may yet be able to challenge Marc. Stay tuned!

The Spanish Build Missions In this episode I want to talk about the missions that the Spanish established when they colonized Texas. I'll talk about the reasons for the missions, how many were established, and some of the good and the bad that took place in and around the missions. Spanish explorers operated under the philosophy of the three G's, God, Gold, and Glory, the Spanish missions in Texas are a direct result of that philosophy. How did that come about? When Spain began to colonize the Americas, it was a Roman Catholic nation. That meant that while there was a King and a Queen (Ferdinand II of Aragon and Isabella I of Castile) , they in fact owed their power to Rome and the Catholic Church.  They had received Papal Dispensation for Marriage: Ferdinand and Isabella were second cousins, and under canon law, their marriage required a papal dispensation (special permission). They obtained this from Pope Sixtus IV. Once they were in power they established what we know as the Spanish Inquisition. It was founded in 1478 with the aim of suppressing heresy within Spain and its territories. While initially focusing on individuals suspected of practicing non-Catholic beliefs, the Inquisition later targeted forced converts from Judaism and Islam (conversos and Moriscos) who were suspected of secretly practicing their former faiths. They were granted this power to establish the Inquisition in Castile, when Pope Sixtus IV published a bull granting them the exclusive authority to name inquisitors, although the papacy retained the right to formally appoint the royal nominees. As defenders of the Catholic Church, they believed that whenever they encountered new peoples, and that goal was to convert the natives to Catholicism.  Missions played a major role in that effort. Once the Spanish had established settlements in Mexico they turned their vision north, in search of fabled cities of gold and between 1632 and 1793, in order to establish a foothold in their northern most territory, they sent expeditions which all had at least one Spanish friar as a member.  These teams traveled north from Mexico into present-day Texas, where they built dozens of missions and presidios.  A presidio is a military fort and usually was built in very near proximity or at the same location as the mission in order to provide security to the friars and those who lived and worked at the mission. In all, 26 missions were established and maintained in Texas with various results. According to the Spanish belief system at the time their goals were somewhat noble. Establish Christian enclaves with communal property, labor, worship, political life, and social relations all under the guidance and supervision of the missionaries.  The missionaries and Spanish authorities sought to make life within the mission communities resemble that of any Spanish villages and echo Spanish culture.  To do so, the priests not only taught the Indians religion but also life skills, they felt the native peoples lacked. They introduced European livestock, fruits, vegetables, and industry into the Texas area.  The introduced a very structured format for day-to-day living including a highly organized routine of prayer, work, training, meals, and relaxation. Now of course in order to round out the training the missionaries also made certain to celebrate religious holidays and they held other types of celebrations.  As I mentioned, the Spanish plan was for the natives to become productive Spanish citizens and to meet that goal they were taught several vocational skills, such as blacksmithing, masonry, carpentry, weaving, and more. Unfortunately the results didn't meet the expectations, for several reasons.  The day-to-day life in the missions wasn't anything the Native Peoples had ever experienced.  The priests supervised all activities in the mission; however, when we look at their methods from our current social beliefs,

Toprak Razgatlioglu will join the Pramac Yamaha team next season, by which time he'll have turned 29-years-old. The two-time World Superbike Champion will end his time with BMW as a result, a partnership which yielded the Bavarian brand's first WorldSBK title in 2024 and Razgtlioglu's second, having taken his first with Yamaha in 2021.Razgatlioglu's deal will only keep him at Yamaha for the 2026 season, which means both parties will be open to either continuing or ending the collaboration after the first year, but, perhaps more importantly, ahead of MotoGP's biggest regulation change in a decade in 2027. The big question also lingers... Who will be his teammate? Jack Miller or Miguel Oliveira.Miller is the clear option, since his contract expires at the end of this year, but he's also been the more performative rider of the two this year, despite his difficult Aragon race that resulted in only 14th.Crash has been the global leader in terms of MotoGP news and features over the last 20 years so to expand our coverage of the sport we all love, we are now doing a weekly podcast!An in-house production brought to you by the Crash MotoGP team: Presented by Jordan Moreland (MotoGP Social Media Manager) - Peter McLaren (MotoGP Journalist) - Lewis Duncan (MotoGP Journalist)Jordan - https://twitter.com/jordanmoreland_Pete - https://twitter.com/McLarenMotoGPLewis - https://x.com/lewis__duncanFollow our channels:Twitter (X) - Crash MotoGPInstagram - Crash MotoGPFacebook - Crash Net MotoGP#MotoGP Hosted on Acast.

Round Eight of MotoGP brings us to Aragon Spain, home for two very famous racers on our grid, conveniently the same two that have been absolutely dominating the 2025 season so far. This weekend was no different as after a 10 year hiatus Marc Marquez once again produced an absolutely perfect weekend finishing 1st in every session and race possible throughout the weekend!! Behind him, we did see the same familiar blue colors of his brother Alex Marquez, but after that we actually saw a bit of a mix up on the grid for once! The Austrian manufacturer that has been lacking so far this year finally showed up with some speed and power to come home with at least one bike in the top 5 both days!! Further back on the grid, but not quite as far as we're used to we saw an Aprilia keeping it inside the top 10, then sadly even further back, at least on Saturday, we saw a lonely Pecco Bagnaia brining home no points Saturday but snagging a podium finish for Sunday!!! More than enough exciting racing was happening all over the track, both days of the weekend to include our riders of the week giving a very good show!! Make sure you vote for your winner of the week between the two that we chose Franco Morbidelli and Pedro Acosta!!! https://fantasy.motogp.com/ Code: NF9ZDUE9

It was a truly perfect weekend in Aragon for Championship leader, Marc Marquez. Dre Harrison sits down with Richard Asher and Uri Puigdemont to review a stunning weekend from the Spaniard, with a Grand Chelem victory, and the first rider to lead in every single session across the weekend since... Marc himself did it in Germany back in 2015. It was a close fight from behind as Alex Marquez limited the Championship damage with another pair of second place finishes, with Francesco Bagnaia making a big change in his brake discs that earned him a podium finish, and according to the man himself, some regained confidence after just four points in his previous five races. Is it the first sign of a turnaround by the former Champion. There's also some focus on today's news that two-time World Superbike Champion Toprak Razgatlıoğlu will be heading to MotoGP in 2026 with Prima Pramac Racing. The trio discuss why this is a fun but "risky" move by the Turkish rider and what challenges may lie ahead.  And finally a wrap-up of the rest of the weekend's action, including Pedro Acosta's dispondent feelings despite a fourth place finish, what could have been for Marco Bezzecchi's Aprilia after a horrible Qualifying session, and the unpredictable future of KTM with rumours Herve Poncheral at Tech3 might be prepared to sell his team. 

Marc Marquez reminds everyone that Aragon is his house, but Pecco is back on the podium, while Morbidelli and Aldeguer put on a show. I recap all of the MotoGP action in the AragonGP!The Rundown:- Qualifying: Marc dominates again, but Alex and Frankie keep him honest- Sprint Race: Marc gets a challenge from his brother, while Fermin shows up late- MotoGP Race: zero drama up front, but the mid-pack was fire- Pecco finally shows up…on Sunday- Morbidelli vs. Aldeguer is the highlight of the weekend- KTM's most competitive weekend so far- The MotoGP Championship Picture: Marc is in control, Alex won't go away, and Pecco is back…but not back- My take on AragonWhat did you think of the AragonGP?

On this week's podcast, we discuss the Aragon Grand Prix and the dominance of Marc Marquez. He led every single session over the weekend and extended his championship lead to 32 points over his brother, Alex. Has Pecco Bagnaia made a break through? It seems so with a change of brake discs, giving him more confidence on the front end of that GP25.We also discuss Manu Gonzalez's surprise test with Trackhouse and Toprak Razgatlioglu's move to Pramac, which seems all but done.Crash has been the global leader in terms of MotoGP news and features over the last 20 years so to expand our coverage of the sport we all love, we are now doing a weekly podcast!An in-house production brought to you by the Crash MotoGP team: Presented by Jordan Moreland (MotoGP Social Media Manager) - Peter McLaren (MotoGP Journalist) - Lewis Duncan (MotoGP Journalist)Jordan - https://twitter.com/jordanmoreland_Pete - https://twitter.com/McLarenMotoGPLewis - https://x.com/lewis__duncanFollow our channels:Twitter (X) - Crash MotoGPInstagram - Crash MotoGPFacebook - Crash Net MotoGP#MotoGP Hosted on Acast.

Not quite ‘live' from the MotorLand Aragon Grand Prix Media Centre, Adam, David and Neil bring you their highlight, lowlights, discussion points and (wacky?) theories to emerge from the latest round of 2025 MotoGP.

 Ah, Aragon! They used to shoot westerns here, you know. The wide empty desert was the perfect backdrop for spaghetti western action. Cowboy versus cowboy, gunslingers living dying by the grace of their hair-trigger fingers and lightning-quick reflexes. And maybe the spirit of those films never really went away, because now we've got some old-fashioned drama like rival brothers and the return of a rider who was really fighting some technical difficulties. But was that really all there was to it? Does the tech tell a more complicated story? Or is it all mental?Live from the aftermath of Aragon, it's the Oxley Bom MotoGP Podcast. Cheers!Want more?

The last of Henry VIII's wives, Catherine Parr's story is absolutely fascinating. A daughter of a noble family from the north of England, Catherine was raised by a doting, independent mother who urged her daughters to take a similar approach. Maud Green Parr, Catherine's mother, was a confidant of Queen Catherine of Aragon, and Catherine's younger sister Anne would go on to be a lady in waiting to all six of Henry's wives - including her sister. Catherine was, by all accounts, extremely bright and deeply invested in education, especially languages. Unlike most of his brides, Catherine Parr had been married prior to their relationship. Twice, in fact, and in each case, the marriages presented Catherine with circumstances that shaped her; into a fully fledged Protestant in the first case, and into a devoted step-mother in the second - a circumstance that would be sorely tested by the religious rivalries shaking Henry's England in the aftermath of his break with Rome. But that's a story for the next episode. Listen ad-free at patreon.com/trashyroyalspodcast. To advertise on this podcast, reach out to info@amplitudemediapartners.com.

As Round 8 at Aragon gets set to commence, Jim and Rich look back at a highly eventful set of races 2 weeks ago at Silverstone in the UK. For once, Moto2 dished up the race of the day, but there was plenty of action and incident in the MotoGP and Moto 3 races too. The lads also discuss listener feedback, ongoing contractual disputes at Aprilia, a nasty injury for HRC's Luca Marini and the vexed question of why Silverstone draws in such a small trackside audience.

On this day in Tudor history, 5th June 1516, Maria de Salinas married Lord Willoughby of Eresby. But this Spanish noblewoman would be remembered not for her marriage, but for her fierce loyalty to Queen Catherine of Aragon. Maria's story is one of deep friendship, political influence, and unwavering devotion. She followed Catherine from Spain to England, stood by her through triumph and tragedy, and, in the end, defied royal orders to be with her dying friend. In 1536, when Catherine was banished and gravely ill at Kimbolton Castle, Maria risked everything. She rode through a bitter winter storm, suffered a riding accident, and still pushed on—claiming to have lost her permission papers, just to reach Catherine's side. She arrived just in time. The queen died the next day. Join me as I explore the extraordinary life and character of Maria de Salinas—friend, mother, fighter, and one of the most loyal women in Tudor history. #MariaDeSalinas #CatherineOfAragon #TudorHistory #OnThisDay #WomenInHistory #TudorCourt #TudorQueens #RealFriendship #TudorEngland #SpanishNoblewoman #KimboltonCastle #LoyaltyAndLove #HistoricalWomen #TudorDrama #AnneBoleynFiles
