China's remarkable journey from poverty to becoming the world's second-largest economic power is marked by extraordinary urban growth and consumption capacity of its urban population. Central to this development fervor are multifunctional commercial complexes and shopping malls, now key features of modern urban districts. The concept of shopping malls, originally introduced to China by American architects in the 1980s, has since flourished on an even larger scale than their American counterparts. American-Designed Shopping Malls in China (Hong Kong University Press, 2026) by Dr. Charlie Qiuli Xue and Dr. Arwen Yingting Chen delves into the origins of shopping mall development in the United States after World War II, tracing how American architects exported this building type into China's rapidly evolving urban landscapes, particularly in Beijing, Shanghai, Chengdu, Kunming, and Guangzhou. Using primary sources, statistical analyses, and illustrated case studies, the book explores the evolution of shopping malls as a consequence of China's profound economic, social, and cultural change over the past four decades. The book also highlights the impact of American consumerism on the everyday lives of Chinese people, altering not only consumer patterns but also local architectural practices. This tale of transformation is essential reading for anyone interested in China's rapid urban development. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Some women make us feel like we can do anything.Think of characters like Arwen, Éowyn, Black Widow, or Wonder Woman.They step into danger.They fight bravely.They rise when everything feels impossible. ⚔️And sometimes we watch moments like that and think:“I want to be that strong.”But real life can feel very different.Real women get tired.Real women carry a lot.Real women can feel emotionally drained, overwhelmed, and stretched thin.In this Mother's Day message from the Wonder Women series, Mackenzie Carter reminds us that God created women as helpers—life-giving helpers. That's powerful because “helper” is a word God even uses of Himself.This message walks through the woman of Book of Proverbs 31—not as some impossible standard, but as a picture of a woman growing in wisdom, character, and strength with God.✨ In this message you'll discover:Why biblical strength is different from cultural pressureHow women can find strength in Jesus instead of performanceWhy the Proverbs 31 woman is about growth, not perfectionWhat it looks like to walk with God when you feel depletedThis message is for moms.For daughters.For young women.For women carrying more than people know.

When a family sailing journey ends in capture by child soldiers during Mozambique's civil war, a man must protect his children while confronting the unsettling truth that his captors are both perpetrators of violence and children shaped by it. Today's episode featured Dave Muller. Dave has written about his experiences in a book entitled, “Not Child's Play”, available where books are sold or at https://notchildsplay.co.uk/ You can email Dave at dave.muller@notchildsplay.co.za Dave is on Instagram @davenotchildsplay, on Facebook @Dave Muller and on YouTube @DaveMuller-NotChildsPlayIn the 1960s and 1970s, both South Africa and Mozambique were part of the larger decolonization of Africa, with South Africa gaining full independence from Britain in 1961 and Mozambique gaining independence from Portugal in 1975. However, in the decolonization process, both were thrown into proxy battles, between old structures clinging to power and the larger global cold war between communist and capitalist superpowers. South Africa, even after independence, was still ruled by a white minority government, under the National Party. The National Party was populated mostly by the white ethnic group known as Afrikaners who spoke a language called Afrikaans. The National Party instituted apartheid, a brutally oppressive system of institutionalized racial segregation and white supremacy enforced in South Africa from 1948 to the early 1990s. South Africa shares a northeastern border with Mozambique. When Mozambique gained independence in 1975, they were ruled by the Communist party known as FRELIMO. FRELIMO became a major force opposing apartheid in neighboring South Africa. The South African apartheid government, in response to FRELIMO's opposition, actively destabilized Mozambique from the inside by propping up a rebel group known as RENAMO. This led to a violent 15-year civil war in Mozambique, between the ruling, communist-backed FRELIMO party and the South African-backed RENAMO rebel group. In the first part of today's episode, you'll hear our storyteller speak about growing up in South Africa during apartheid as a white man, but he was not an Afrikaner, and grew up in a family that was opposed to apartheid. The second part of the story takes place in Mozambique, where he and his family are held by the RENAMO rebel group and caught in the chaos and fighting between FRELIMO and RENAMO, the two warring factions in the civil war there. Of course there is much more to say about all of this, and Dave will speak to some of these issues as he experienced them. I encourage you all to read more about the brutal and complex history of decolonization and apartheid in Africa. And one final note, you'll hear Dave talking about “Arwen” several times. In case it isn't clear right away, he is referring to his boat that he built.

Filmmaker Ben Leonberg (GOOD BOY) joins Adam and Joe to discuss the making of his indie darling and working with his dog "Indy" as the film's star.

From first meeting and becoming friends attending screenings and festivals in Austin, TX… to making short films together for several years… to writing their debut feature MAN FINDS TAPE in a way where they felt they could potentially just make it on their own if they couldn't find a production company willing to take it on… to handing off their screenplay to producer Dave Lawson (Rustic Films) who in turn brought on producers Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead (SOMETHING IN THE DIRT, THE ENDLESS, LOKI, DAREDEVIL: BORN AGAIN) and took the duo under their wings… to what they learned from the writing process once they were actually shooting their script… to how they put together such a terrific cast by not having tunnel vision on a "type" they envisioned for each character during the writing process… to how they adjusted their shooting strategy and pivoted whenever a hurdle interfered with their pre-production plans, Paul and Peter are a terrific example of why working with friends is the best way to work.

Today's guest is a challenge. But I don't mean that in a negative way.Welcome Arwen Lewis to the podcast. She's a musician and a podcaster. And this show starts off almost like it's duelling interviews. And before I go any further, I need to thank Astrid Young for the introduction. Arwen has quite the family tree. Her dad is Peter Lewis of Moby Grape. But going back farther, her grandfather founded the Armed Forces Radio Network. And what's more, her grandmother was legendary actress/entertainer Loretta Young! Arwen grew up with entertainment in her blood. But she wasn't immediately drawn to music as her calling. She talks about what she did before starting her music career and when that finally did become evident. Her first endeavor is a collection of Moby Grape songs, reimagined for her by her dad and John DeNicola. She talks about how she puts her own spin on covers, the influence of astronomy (aided by another mutual friend, Jason Achilles), and how she became the booking manager at Lost Chord Guitars. We also geek out on how we both got into podcasting. She's got a great EP out and a new single. We wrap everything up discussing new projects and critiquing fast food restaurants.

We wanted to cover a couple in the fantasy world…but that's tricky to do when our podcast is only about real-life couples! Thankfully, there is a beautiful love story behind the creator of The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit: the story of J.R.R. Tolkien and Edith Bratt. Tolkien and Edith's love story began as star-crossed lovers, and their separation inspired Tolkien to write the story of Beren and Lúthien (and later Aragorn and Arwen). After years apart, they reunited, and endured Tolkien's enlistment in World War I, which he miraculously survived.  Throughout their marriage, Tolkien scribbled away at his ‘fairy languages' and Middle Earth tales in any free time he found. But who was Edith Tolkien? The world knows little about her, and she makes few appearances in biographies about him. But surely that doesn't mean Tolkien cared more for elves and hanging with C.S. Lewis? ***** This is a teaser for a bonus episode— the full episode is 1 hour 49 minutes long!

I met Arwen Becker by accident in the Aspen airport. Her red hat caught my eye with a mysterious number, 29029, the height of Mount Everest in feet. That number captures something I believe deeply: we are capable of more than we think when we show up for the adventure that is seeking us right now.Arwen is a six-time finisher of the 29029 x Aspen endurance challenge, where participants hike a mountain repeatedly for 36 hours to reach the vertical height of Everest. She's also spent 23 years as a financial advisor empowering women to take control of their retirement, written the book "She Handled It: Retirement, an Inspiring and Empowering Financial Guide for Women Over 40," hosts the She Handled It podcast, and holds a Bachelor of Science in Zoology. Before finance, she ran a wildlife rehabilitation center, her childhood dream. This woman knows what it means to pivot, to prepare, and to show up even when it's hard.If you've ever handed over responsibility for your money, your body, or your dreams to someone else because it felt too hard or too complicated, Arwen's story will shake you awake. We talk about why 80% of women die single while 80% of men die married and what that means for your financial security, the four phases of achieving meaningful goals, mandatory gear on mountains and in life, why good training makes recovery possible, and how the real transformation happens in the grind, not at the summit.Takeaways:How small daily choices build strength and freedomWhy financial and spiritual preparation matterThe beauty of joy and pain coexisting in transformationConnect with Arwen Becker:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/arwenbecker/Website: https://arwenbecker.com/She Handled It on Amazon: https://a.co/d/2MZBPuHHer story is a powerful reminder that the climb is where we grow, that community matters, and that the adventure is happening now, wherever you are.

The full episode airs this Friday, and trust me, you'll want to hear the rest of her incredible story.Arwen spent 23 years running a thriving retirement planning firm where she helped women take charge of their financial futures. In 2022, she sold that business, embraced sobriety, and began a new chapter as a keynote speaker, endurance athlete, and author. She has completed the 29029 x Aspen challenge six times, written two books with another on the way, and cherishes her roles as a devoted wife and proud mom of three grown sons.In this short conversation, Arwen and I talk about what it takes to commit to something that scares you, the beauty of small consistent steps, and the grace found in loving the process rather than chasing the peak. We explore how faith can steady us through transformation and how the climb itself becomes the most meaningful part of the journey.Arwen's story is a beautiful reminder that the real adventure is not somewhere out there.

FULL VERSION. Filmmaker Doug Roos (BAKEMONO) joins Adam and Joe in the ArieScope studio to discuss his international career journey and shooting his latest film in Japan. From seeing ALIENS at age 6 and falling in love with genre cinema… to his fascination with making his own monsters and starting out with nothing but clear plastic bags and a flashlight… to making his first short film at 12 years old and why 1993's CARNOSAUR was such an inspiration to him… to making films in China before relocating to Japan where he has been living for the last 7 years… to being told “it's too expensive to shoot a movie in Japan” and accepting the statement as a challenge… to learning about the dark side of Tokyo from actor friends and conceiving the idea for BAKEMONO… to how he made the incredible creature effects himself on an extremely limited budget and why he chose to tell the story of BAKEMONO in a “non-linear” structure… to why he waited to crowd fund the film until he already had footage to show the world… to the hurdles of promoting his film through his own efforts and positive word of mouth alone, Doug is an inspiration for anyone out there who is tired of waiting for permission and ready to make their own movie happen.
