Paul's failure in Athens does not lead to discouragement; rather, he remains faithful to Christ and continues to preach the Gospel in other cities. (Lectionary #293) May 28, 2025 - Cathedral Rectory - Superior, WI Fr. Andrew Ricci - www.studyprayserve.com  

On this episode of Destination on the Left, I talk with Mitch Bach, partner at Tourpreneur and CEO of TripSchool, about the shift from information-driven tours to experience-driven journeys, where emotional connection, creative storytelling, and human interaction are now the most valuable takeaways for travelers. Mitch introduces listeners to the concept of the “emotion economy” and offers inspiring examples, from immersive historical reenactments to sensory food experiences, that help tour operators leave a lasting impact on their guests. What You Will Learn in This Episode: Why technology and shifting traveler expectations are transforming guided tours, and how COVID accelerated demand for more meaningful human connections in travel How storytelling and emotion-based experience design can create unforgettable “wow” moments that keep guests talking How tour operators can tap into the “emotion economy” by reverse engineering experiences to focus on how guests feel, not just what they learn or see Why shifting from an information-driven to a connection-driven approach is critical, and Mitch gives practical examples for infusing creativity and engagement at every stop Why focusing on authentic connections and unique value is the best defense against disruption From Information to Emotion Historically, tour guides and operators differentiated themselves through access and expertise, knowing every detail about a monument or organizing seamless itineraries. As travel information and bookings become increasingly accessible via technology, these elements alone no longer set experiences apart. Today's travelers are more informed than ever, but also more discerning. Mitch describes why travelers want guides to offer more than just facts they could easily find online. They want experiences that create a “sense of wow,” moments that resonate emotionally and stay with them long after the trip ends. As Maya Angelou says, “People remember not what you said or did, but how you made them feel,” which is why Mitch loves the concept of the “emotion economy.” The role of the guide isn't just to inform, but to design and deliver experiences that spark genuine emotion and create meaningful human connections. Storytelling and Sensory Engagement Creative storytelling and thoughtful experience design are how tour operators can tap into this emotion economy. Mitch shares how to do this, using his own multi-day Southern U.S. tours as examples, how moments of mystery, anticipation, and character introduction heighten the overall impact. For instance, by weaving in the story of a local chef and building anticipation around a meal, not just revealing the restaurant upfront, he transformed an ordinary lunch stop into a memorable, multi-sensory adventure. Guests were participating in a larger narrative, engaging all their senses, and building emotional anticipation along the way. Similarly, in places with restrictions or well-worn routes (such as Athens' Acropolis), creativity in delivery, using music, audience participation, or reframing crowd bottlenecks as immersive reenactments, turns limitations into opportunities for connection. The Role of Technology and the Changing Traveler We also discuss the impact of technology: it streamlines logistics, democratizes access, and commoditizes many traditional tour products. With powerful booking platforms and AI soon able to assemble custom itineraries, what remains irreplaceable is the human touch and the ability to foster real connection and insight. Tour operators who embrace their relationships and build local knowledge can offer value that technology alone just can't replicate. Millennials and Gen Z travelers, shaped by the pandemic's isolation, increasingly seek travel for community and transformation. Innovative companies are marketing feelings and social connection, not just destinations.

The Southeastern 16 crew of Graham Doty, Jay Greeson and Chris Lee analyze the draw in the Athens Regional of the 2025 NCAA baseball tournament. Topics include: Georgia might have more power than any team in the country; the Bulldogs had a staggering eight players bash double-digit homers in the regular season. First-team all-SEC pick Slate Alford provides a steady, veteran presence at third, Robbie Burnett (20 HR, 17 SB) was one of the SEC's best all-around outfielders and first baseman Ryland Zaborowski is back after injury and at full strength, could be the best of them all. Georgia struggled to find answers on the mound when it came to bullpen depth at times, but the Bulldogs have a ton of power arms and a starting duo of Leighton Finley and Brian Curley that give them a chance to beat anyone. Duke's inclusion in the regional adds more big power to scene this weekend at Foley Field, with Ben Miller (18 HR) the biggest threat among a lineup and bench that can take teams out of the yard throughout. Reid Easterly, Ryan Calvert and Mark HIndy have been the Blue Devils' most effective arms; the Blue Devils have trouble keeping opponents inside the yard but are talented enough to advance. Could Oklahoma State be a sleeper? The Cowboys weren't considered an NCAA tournament team until season's end, but coach Josh Holliday had his team peaking at the right time. OSU is one of the better teams in the tournament at preventing home runs and Harrison Bodendorft (2.77 ERA) is a legitimate starting ace, while Sean Youngerman (2.08) was tremendous out of the bullpen and Nolan Schubart (17 HR) provides some of the biggest power in the college game. Binghamton arrives in Athens after winning the America East tournament. The Bearcats will need good things from starter Hayden Tarsia and big tournaments from power bats Evin Sullivan (13 HR) and Freddy Forgione (14) to compete.

On this episode of On That Note, I sat down with Athens-based singer-songwriter Lane Marie, fresh off the release of her stunning new single, Changing. We talked all about her unique songwriting process, the emotional core behind her lyrics, and how therapy and self-reflection have shaped both her music and her personal journey. This conversation went deep, got personal, and was an absolute blast

Will the Louisville arms sustain the tough lineups in Nashville? Can Miami find that red hot team against going into Hattiesburg? Florida State's pitching going the distance in Tallahassee. UNC's lineup going to be too much for other teams in the Chapel Hill Regional. Can NC State find the longball to escape the Auburn regional? Are the Buzz Boys ready to prove everyone down in Oxford? Is Duke in the most wide open Regional in Athens? Does Clemson have enough pitching if the lose one in their Regional? Which Wake Forest are we going to get in Knoxville? Monty will be in Clemson, Nick will be in Chapel Hill, and Micah will make a trip to Hattiesburg and Oxford!

Kelly opens up about the private battles she fought in silence — the mental health struggles, the fear of being outed, and the toll of living a hidden life in the public eye.We talk about the moment she knew she couldn't live in secrecy anymore, the relief of coming out in 2022, and what life feels like now that she's free to be herself.

By 1985, REM had carved out a following both in their home base of Athens, GA and at colleges and indie radio stations around the US. Their first two albums Murmur and Reckoning gave them a foothold as they learned how to craft songs and play live. But they were ready to take the next step so instead of retreating to North Carolina where they'd recorded their first two albums, they went to London to broaden their horizons and up their songwriting and recording game. Because REM had grown into a solid live band, some songs were worked out on the road like their classic travel song Driver 8. But they also sought inspiration from some of the odd characters they encountered in Athens and around the South with songs like Wendell Gee, Life And How To Live It and Old Man Kensey. They also drew from their travels to create some great road songs like Can't Get There From Here, Maps & Legends and Feeling Gravity's Pull. Guitarist Peter Buck does his jangly best here while breaking out a little banjo in spots. Mike Mills not only locks down the bass but provides harmonies and counterpoints to Michael Stipes desperate and personal lyrics. This album would portend the next two REM records - Life's Rick Pageant and Document - both favorites of The Wolf. While the band would go onto become multi-platinum international pop superstars in the 90s, this album saw the band not ready to become that big but ready to take the next step in their journey. It's a fun one to dive into as it turns 40!

This week EU ambassadors agreed on a €150 billion defense lending scheme, Security Action For Europe, or SAFE. EU officials are calling this "an important step toward a stronger Europe." In a move that has raised eyebrows in Athens and Nicosia, the agreement allows for limited participation by third countries – including Turkey. Following the announcement, Prime Minister Mitsotakis called on Turkey to lift its 30 year threat of war against Greece if it wants access to EU defense funds. Vassilis Nedos, Kathimerini's diplomatic and defense editor, joins Thanos Davelis with the latest analysis.You can read the articles we discuss on our podcast here:EU defense fund clears key hurdleGreece says Turkey must lift war threat to get access to EU defence fundsPanathinaikos and Olympiacos eye EuroLeague trophy in Abu Dhabi Final FourPostecoglou becomes first Greek soccer coach to raise European cupGreece doubles drone fleet and deploys record firefighters to tackle growing wildfire risk

U.S. yields and the 30-year note rise above 5 per cent as U.S. debt burden worries persist.

Recorded at the Areopagus in Athens, Chad and Derrick Woodward reflect on Paul's message in Acts 17. They discuss how Paul addressed Greek idolatry and introduced the concept of one true God to the philosophers at Mars Hill; blending biblical reflection with on-site observations to highlight the relevance of Paul's message today.

Marketplace Entrepreneur for the Kingdom of God • Sunday Service Website: www.PastorTodd.org Please help us fight back and take a stand: www.ToddCoconato.com/give We are in a critical hour where the lines between sacred and secular are blurring—not because we're compromising the Gospel, but because God is invading every sphere of society through His people. The Church is not confined to the four walls of a building. In fact, many of the greatest battles and victories of this generation will not take place in pulpits, but in boardrooms, offices, construction sites, online platforms, and homes. You don't have to be a pulpit preacher to be in full-time ministry. If you're called to the marketplace, then you're on the frontlines of spiritual warfare, influence, and kingdom advancement. 1. Matthew 5:14-16 (NKJV) “You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.” 2. Colossians 3:23-24 (NKJV) “And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ.” 3. Proverbs 13:22 (NKJV) “A good man leaves an inheritance to his children's children, but the wealth of the sinner is stored up for the righteous.” 4. Deuteronomy 8:18 (NKJV) “And you shall remember the Lord your God, for it is He who gives you power to get wealth, that He may establish His covenant which He swore to your fathers, as it is this day.” 5. Acts 18:1-3 (NKJV) “After these things Paul departed from Athens and went to Corinth. And he found a certain Jew named Aquila… with his wife Priscilla… because he was of the same trade, he stayed with them and worked; for by occupation they were tentmakers.” 6. Proverbs 22:29 (NKJV) “Do you see a man who excels in his work? He will stand before kings; He will not stand before unknown men.” 7. Isaiah 60:1-3 (NKJV) “Arise, shine; for your light has come! And the glory of the Lord is risen upon you. For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and deep darkness the people; But the Lord will arise over you, and His glory will be seen upon you. The Gentiles shall come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising.” 8. Luke 19:13 (NKJV) “So he called ten of his servants, delivered to them ten minas, and said to them, ‘Do business till I come.'” 9. 1 Corinthians 12:4-6 (NKJV) “There are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. There are differences of ministries, but the same Lord. And there are diversities of activities, but it is the same God who works all in all.” 10. Ecclesiastes 11:1-2 (NKJV) “Cast your bread upon the waters, for you will find it after many days. Give a serving to seven, and also to eight, for you do not know what evil will be on the earth.” 11. Romans 12:6-8 (NKJV) “Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, let us prophesy… or he who gives, with liberality… he who leads, with diligence…” God is raising up Josephs, Daniels, Deborahs, and Esthers in the marketplace—leaders who can manage resources, interpret dreams, influence kings, and save nations. You may not stand in a pulpit, but your calling is no less holy. Your business is a platform for truth, your clients are a mission field, and your profits can fund revival. This is the hour to rise up as a kingdom entrepreneur—set apart, filled with the Spirit, and unashamed of the Gospel in the business world. CCLI: 21943673

There's something strangely reassuring about knowing people were wrestling with the similar issues we struggle with over 2,000 years ago — even if they wore togas and wrote with a chisel.   Donald Robertson is a cognitive-behavioral psychotherapist, acclaimed author of How to Think Like a Roman Emperor, and one of the world's leading voices on Stoicism. He's also the founder of the Plato's Academy Centre in Athens, and a founding member of the Modern Stoicism nonprofit.   On this pod, we talk about the wisdom literature and how it can help with emotional distress; specifically, the idea of Stoics as ancient psychotherapists. Donald explains how Stoicism wasn't just a philosophy of life, but also a clear system of psychotherapy in ancient Greek and Roman thought.   Some episode highlights: How shifting definitions shape our understanding of mental illness On the paradox of growth through adversity Struggle and transformation Experiential wisdom Fortune and the bitch goddess of success Stoicism as an ancient psychotherapy The philosophical roots of cognitive therapy On anger, and the art of self-mastery (Seneca, Galen) On Worry and rumination Marcus Aurelius  Stoicism's broader vision On the “view from above” and the liberation of perspective How time expansion mitigates worry The complex relationship of thoughts and emotions The core proposition of both Stoicism and CBT How complaining signals resistance to reality Acceptance and the dichotomy of control How to reconnect with what's essential in a noisy world   This isn't motivational fluff; it's a toolkit for anyone who's ever gotten tangled in their own head.    

Antonia Trichopoulou, nutrition epidemiologist from Academy of Athens, is a pioneer in the study of the health effects of the Mediterranean diet and has even been called the mother of the Mediterranean Diet.

In this episode, we once again return to the Christ myth, in our search for the devil in Science Fiction with The Matrix. The Christ Myth is usually the story of a chosen one, a demi god, not exactly god but more than human with supernatural powers coming to rescue us all from evil. I would argue, Matrix is the most blatant and obvious of our Christ myth stories.  Special guest stars include Keanu Reeves, Thomas Anderson, Neo, Kung Fu, Trinity, John the Baptist, Morpheus, Jesus, River Jordan, red pill, Roman, Ovid, Metamorphoses, Cypher, Rolling Stones, Beatles, Oasis, Blur, Niki Minaj, Lil' Kim, Agent Smith, Wachowskis, Geocites, Sydney, 2000 Olympics, Australia, Melbourne, Athens, Greeks, Olympic Games, Sydney Opera House, Sydney Harbour Bridge, George Lucas, Star Wars, The Phantom Menace, September 11, 2001,   #666 #SketchComedy #Sketch #Comedy #Sketch Comedy #Atheist #Science #History #Atheism #Antitheist #ConspiracyTheory #Conspiracy #Conspiracies #Sceptical #Scepticism #Mythology #Religion #Devil #Satan #Satanism #Satanist #Skeptic #Debunk #Illuminati #Podcast #funny #sketch #skit #comedy #comedyshow #comedyskits #HeavyMetal #weird #leftist #SatanIsMySuperhero #ScienceFiction #SciFiSend us a text

Welcome to the audio podcast for Dogwood Church in Athens, TX.

1 Thessalonians 3 verses 1-5 Paul tells us of the sufferings that the Apostle experienced in Athens. Next Paul informs his readers of the great encouragement and comfort that Timothy brings him; and it is the news of the Thessalonians' magnificent response to the gospel. Note how the chapter finishes – read aloud verses 12-13 and pause, and ponder. Chapter 4 speaks of how pleased God and Paul are with the way that the believers are living their lives as a witness to their faith and to their trust in God and His Son. The love the Macedonian believers show to each other is evidence that they have learned what God's Word teaches. They needed to keep working until the Lord Jesus' return. These believers did, however, have a wrong view about the order of events after the Lord's return. The living believers will have no time advantage over those faithful who had fallen asleep in Christ ie died. Verses 13-18 describe what happens at Christ's return to the earth. Jesus will come with angels and the trumpet of God (1 Corinthians 15 verses 52-53). Those believers who are alive when he comes will be caught up together with those believers who have been raised from the dead, into a great cloud of witnesses (see Hebrews 12 verses 1-2). These believers will be caught into the air ie aerial, in the sense that, together with their Lord Jesus Christ, they will be the rulers (or those elevated to be in authority) over the people of the earth – ie the subjects of that coming kingdom. What a comfort to those who are now suffering persecution.

What does it take to build a construction company that thrives for over 75 years while maintaining a commitment to excellence, innovation and community? For Sheridan Construction, the answer lies in its people-first approach and visionary leadership. Christy Kovac, president and CEO of Sheridan Construction, recently joined Show Host and President of Denim Marketing Carol Morgan on the Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio podcast to share insights into how this 100% employee-owned firm continues to redefine leadership and innovation in commercial construction while staying true to its founding principles. From Estimator to CEO Kovac's journey with Sheridan Construction is as impressive as it is inspiring. A Georgia Institute of Technology graduate with a building science and construction management degree, she was hired as Sheridan's first full-time estimator after applying twice. Her persistence proved worthwhile as she grew the estimating department from a one-person operation to a team of three. As the company's leadership began planning for transitions, Kovac expressed interest in taking on greater responsibility. She was promoted to executive vice president in an interim role before becoming president in 2016 and adding the CEO title in 2020. Throughout this progression, she benefited from mentorship by company leaders Chris Sheridan Jr. and Ronnie Williams. “The company was founded on three principles that were passed on to me and I continue to pass forward: taking care of the people who work for you, the people who give you the work and taking care of the community from where the work comes. When you do those three things well, the rest comes,” Kovac explained, revealing the straightforward yet powerful philosophy that has guided the company through decades of success. Employee Ownership: The Secret to Sustained Success What truly distinguishes Sheridan Construction from its competitors is its employee ownership structure. In 2016, the company became 100% employee-owned as part of a thoughtful succession plan developed by the previous owner, Chris Sheridan Jr. The employee stock option plan allowed for a smooth leadership transition while giving employees a direct stake in the company's success. According to Kovac, this ownership model transformed how the team approaches its work. When everyone has skin in the game, the commitment to quality, client satisfaction and community impact naturally follows. Strategic Expansion Across Georgia While Sheridan Construction's roots remain firmly planted in Middle Georgia, the company strategically expanded its footprint to better serve clients throughout the state. With established offices in West Georgia and Athens, the company has plans to expand into Augusta within the next two years. Additionally, Sheridan Construction holds contractor licenses in all states bordering Georgia, enabling them to follow loyal clients wherever projects lead. This expansion strategy helped the company develop and maintain multi-generational client relationships, with some partnerships spanning three generations of ownership and more than 50 years of collaboration. The Design-Build Advantage The design-build methodology is a significant component of Sheridan Construction's service model. It offers clients a streamlined approach that eliminates the traditional fragmentation between design and construction phases. This integrated approach reduces miscommunication, accelerates project timelines and often leads to more innovative solutions as architects and builders collaborate from day one. “It gives the client one point of contact for the project,” Kovac explained. “The client hires the contractor, and the contractor hires the architect to work as a team. So, it makes communication a little bit smoother.” Community Involvement The company's commitment to community service is evident in its decades-long partnership with Habitat for Humanity.

Lights, Live stream, action. We are back. Criterium racing is back. It is time to get 2025 started in a huge way. For the first time ever we brought competitors together to talk about how the race happened. Ok, when it comes to Will Hardin and Clever Martinez, it is hard to call either of them competitors, they are more like friends who want to push each other's physical and mental limits to the max. Either way, it is great to get the inside view from the guys who won the race.

Since President Trump stepped back into office, and amid escalating competition with China, it looks like one project we've been hearing more and more about is the India-Middle East-Europe Economic Corridor - or IMEC. This is reflected in comments from President Trump, in diplomatic moves we're seeing in the wider region from Greece to India, and most recently in Congress, where a new legislative initiative is looking to establish the East Med as a strategic hub within the framework of IMEC. George Dikaios, who has been tracking developments related to IMEC, joins Thanos Davelis as we look into why this project is significant and what it could mean for Greece.George Dikaios is an adjunct lecturer and a researcher at the Department of Ports Management and Shipping at the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens and a Senior Research Fellow at the Hellenic Foundation for European and Foreign Policy (ELIAMEP).You can read the articles we discuss on our podcast here:Connecting Opportunities: Greece's Strategic Role in the India-Middle East-Europe Economic CorridorKurdish group PKK says it is laying down arms and disbandingKurdish Insurgent Group Says It Is Ending Conflict With Turkish StateItaly commits €360 mln to Greek trains

It's a wild ride through the 510s BCE in Greece—where legends fall and the ground starts to shift beneath the ancient world. We kick things off at the Olympics of 512, where a new champion takes all three footraces and Milo of Crotone suffers his final Olympic defeat. But Milo isn't done—he goes to war, becomes a symbol of Crotone's might… and eventually meets a famously gruesome end. Meanwhile, Pythagoras is tossed from the city he helped shape, and over in Athens, murder sets democracy in motion. This is the storm before the storm.This is a podcast by Dan Hörning and Bernie Maopolski.If you like what we do you can support the Fan of History project on https://www.patreon.com/fanofhistoryCustom Printed Shirts in 3 days!

In this final exploration of Cicero's "On Ends," Michael and Caleb break down Book V, where Cicero reveals his own philosophical sweet spot – an Aristotelian-Platonic approach that challenges both Stoicism and Epicureanism.Against a backdrop of ancient Athens, Cicero's characters debate the core question: What makes a truly good human life? They navigate the middle path between Stoic rigidity (where virtue alone brings happiness) and Aristotle's elitism (where external goods are required).(01:53) Awesome Beginning(07:10) What's Our Purpose?(26:09) Supreme Happiness(31:55) Cicero's Objection(40:39) Summary***Subscribe to The Stoa Letter for weekly meditations, actions, and links to the best Stoic resources: www.stoaletter.com/subscribeDownload the Stoa app (it's a free download): https://stoameditation.com/podIf you try the Stoa app and find it useful, but truly cannot afford it, email us and we'll set you up with a free account.Listen to more episodes and learn more here: https://stoameditation.com/blog/stoa-conversations/Check out our Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@stoaphilosophyThanks to Michael Levy for graciously letting us use his music in the conversations: https://ancientlyre.com/

Mars HillMay 11, 2025 • Greg Pinkner • Acts 17:16–34This Sunday, Greg continues our series on the Book of Acts. In Acts 17, Paul engages the philosophers of Athens at Mars Hill—a city filled with idols and intellectual pride. Surrounded by temples to false gods, Paul boldly proclaims the one true God who made the world, gives life and breath to all, and cannot be contained by human temples or served by human hands. He confronts both Stoic and Epicurean worldviews, contextualizing the gospel in their language, and calls them to repent because God has appointed Jesus as the righteous judge, proven by His resurrection. The idols of our own culture—pleasure, power, success—are empty, but the gospel of Jesus is full of life and truth.WEBSITE: https://fellowshipknox.org/INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/fellowshipknox/

Seeing the idols of Athens, Paul was provoked to preach about Jesus and the resurrection. Gospel-centered ministry requires that we understand the culture so we can speak into it with the truth of the gospel.

Paul's message to the people of Athens on the Areopagus is one of the most effective presentations of the gospel to a non-christian audience in all of scripture. Just as Paul encountered a city full of false gods in Athens, we too are surrounded by subtle idols competing for our devotion. These may not be physical statues, but could be anything from material success to relationships, social media, or even our own appearance. The message reminds us that true fulfillment comes only from seeking the one living God, not these modern-day idols. We're called to recognize our idolatry, repent, and turn continuously to the Creator who gives us life and sustains us. This journey of faith invites us to be genuinely broken rather than falsely happy, encouraging authenticity in our spiritual walk. As we reflect on our own lives, we're prompted to identify our personal idols and recommit ourselves to the God who defeated death through Christ's resurrection.

On this edition of Parallax Views, you will hear an incredible story that, on its surface, you may mistake as being just about professional wrestling: the life and career of "The Golden Greek" Jim Londos. He was the biggest star of not only pro wrestling in the 1920s and 1930s, but arguably of sports itself. His popularity eclipsed that of the profession itself. He sold out stadiums of tens of thousands. Contrary to popular misconceptions, pro wrestling was not simply the domain of smoky rooms before the era of Hulk Hogan. Jim Londos is proof of that. In fact, it may be fair to say that Jim Londos was Hulk Hogan before Hulk Hogan. And just to drive that point home, one only need look at his match against Kola Kwariani on October 22nd, 1933 in Athens, Greece at the Panathenaic Stadium. The attendance for that event? It's said to be between 65,000 and 100,000. Simply put, Londos was a phenomenon. But, his story is much more than that of a pro wrestler. Londos is the story of an immigrant to the United States overcoming all odds. He is the story of a man who gave hope to the masses in the trying times of The Great Depression. A man who became a symbol of being able to overcome the greatest adversities. He was smaller in stature than many of his wrestling contemporaries. The classic underdog. And the fans loved him for it. He was their hero. He was "The Golden Greek" of professional wrestling. Joining J.G. on this edition of the show is journalist Steven Johnson. Although Johnson has done a lot of journalism related to pro wrestling and its storied history, he's also been a U.S. Senate aide and newspaper editor. Moreover, he has master's and Ph.D. from the University of Virginia. Over more than a decade he worked on a book to finally tell the story of Jim Londos. That book, recently released, is entitled Jim Londos: The Golden Greek of Professional Wrestling. Part of MacFarland's Studies in Strength of Physical Culture series, this book uncovers the life and times of an athletic performer who has been unfairly forgotten due to having wrestled in the pre-television era of the professional wrestling. In this conversation Steven I will discuss how he came around to the story of Jim Londos, the ways in which Londos story differs greatly from the more tragic rise & fall of early television-era wrestling Gorgeous George, the trials and tribulations of Jim Londos as a young immigrant in the United States of America in the early 20th century, the ways in which Londos is comparable to the mythical figure of Jason in the story of Jason and the Argonauts, how the legacy of Londos is carried on today by wrestlers like Bryan Danielson (aka Daniel Bryan), WWE superstar John Bradshaw Layfield's (JBL) foreword to the book, the wrestling double-crosses of the early 20th century that long predated the WWE's infamous "Montreal Screwjob", the colorful wrestling promoters of the Londos era (such as Toots Mondt and the Gold Dust Trio, Jack Pfefer, and Jack Curley), the legendary years long feud between Jim Londos and Ed "The Strangler" Lewis, Londos ability to make a crowd not only "believe" but "care" about his journey as a wrestler, and much, much more.

What happens when military might meets diplomatic cunning? In the fragile years following the Peace of Nicias, a dangerous dance unfolds across Greece as former enemies circle each other warily, neither willing to strike first yet both preparing for inevitable conflict.Alcibiades emerges as Athens' bold strategist, orchestrating a brilliant campaign that uses military presence as leverage without actually breaking the peace. With just a small force, he marches confidently through Spartan territory, cutting supply lines and isolating allies in a masterclass of intimidation without battle. His gambit creates a web of alliances that threatens to strangle Sparta's influence across the Peloponnese.Meanwhile, King Aegis of Sparta finds himself trapped between military necessity and political reality. When his massive army finally surrounds the Argives in what should be a decisive victory, he makes the shocking decision to negotiate a truce with just two Argive generals—no armies or governments consulted. This fateful choice nearly costs him everything, as enraged Spartans plot to destroy his home and impose crippling fines, while one Argive negotiator barely escapes being stoned to death by his own people.The true power of religion in warfare becomes starkly apparent as both sides manipulate sacred festivals and divine omens to justify strategic decisions. The Argives creatively redefine their calendar to avoid religious restrictions, while convenient "unfavorable omens" provide perfect cover for Spartan withdrawals when circumstances turn unfavorable.This episode reveals how the machinery of war often runs on factors far beyond battlefield courage—personality conflicts, political ambitions, and the complex dance between military leaders and the governments they serve. As the peace crumbles beneath the weight of unresolved grievances, we witness the seeds being planted for one of the most consequential battles of the entire Peloponnesian War.Ready to discover how four men stopped an army of thousands? Listen now and join us as we unravel the fascinating diplomatic maneuvers that would ultimately change the course of Greek history. Support the show

Nick Huber is an accomplished entrepreneur and real estate investor based in Athens, Georgia. Best known for building a $30M+ annual revenue portfolio that includes 68 self-storage properties, Nick also owns companies like somewhere.com, Bolt Storage, and RE Cost Seg. He's recognized for his no-nonsense advice on entrepreneurship, his book The Sweaty Startup, and his focus on building wealth through practical, “boring” businesses rather than chasing flashy startup trends. Nick's unique perspective comes from real-world experience, not just theory, making him a sought-after voice for aspiring business owners. On this episode we talk about: – How Nick made his first and most recent dollar – The importance of picking the right business “vehicle” – Why cash is king in real estate investing – The realities of self-storage and why it's not truly “passive income” – Building businesses that solve real problems (like RE Cost Seg and somewhere.com) Top 3 Takeaways 1. Pick the right business vehicle: Success isn't just about working hard-it's about working smart in industries where you can win, even if you're “average.” 2. Cash matters in real estate: Contrary to popular advice, Nick argues you need capital to succeed in real estate; “no money down” deals are risky and rare. 3. Business is a long game: Building wealth takes years, often generations. Avoid get-rich-quick schemes and focus on boring, proven businesses.

Greg Jenner is joined in ancient Greece by Professor Edith Hall and comedian Dan Schreiber to learn all about famous philosopher Aristotle and his world changing ideas.Born a doctor's son in the coastal settlement of Stagira, Aristotle would go on to revolutionise intellectual life in the west, writing on everything from theatre and the arts to politics, moral philosophy and zoology. After studying under Plato at his academy, Aristotle became a teacher himself, tutoring none other than a young Alexander the Great in Macedon before returning to Athens to found his own school, the Lyceum. And yet this extraordinary life came to an end in exile, after he was banished from his beloved Athens. This episode charts Aristotle's incredible rise and fall, exploring his intellectual career and philosophical ideas alongside his friendships and romances, and asking whether, despite his views on women and slavery, he deserves the title of the greatest Greek philosopher.This is a radio edit of the original podcast episode.
