December is the ground shaking beneath your feet—the month where fantasy collides with reality and you realize just how much you've survived, and are ready to thrive. Big changes are coming down the pipe, the kind you look back on and say: I lived through that? It's time to show up with courage, devotion, and your big-girl (or boy) pants.This month is all about themes, not timelines:THEME 1: Walking Into the UnknownThis month opens by dragging you into the unlit corners of your potential. You're not scared of the dark—you're scared of your imagination. This is your work: meet the shadows, integrate them, and step into a new perspective as the Gemini Full Moon cracks your mind wide open.THEME 2: Feeling Everything AgainYour senses switch from dim to technicolor. Let the tears flow, taste the joy, and soften the walls you've built around feeling. You incarnated to feel. Let yourself be human. Mars–Saturn pushes you into action while Neptune's direct motion blurs the line between intuition and illusion.THEME 3: Celebrate Your Wins & Your FailuresThrow yourself a failure party. Seriously. Reflect on what went beautifully and what went horribly wrong. Both matter. Both teach. Mars in Capricorn and the Sagittarius New Moon light a fire under your devotion—this is vision-making season.THEME 4: Quiet IlluminationThe solstice brings soft breakthroughs. Light returns, inside and out. Let the insights simmer without trying to make meaning too fast. Mercury–Neptune and Venus–Saturn might stir emotional tension, but it's all clarity in disguise.THEME 5: Enter the VoidThe end of December is not for planning—it's for dissolving. Rest. Bathe. Breathe. Sink into the darkness that births everything. The void is fertile. The answers live in the silence. January can wait.JOIN THE FANTASTICAL VOID - https://www.megthompson.com/the-fantastical-voidSend us a message and let us know what you love about this episodeImportant Links: www.Megthompson.com Attuned - CLICK HERE Let's Connect on Instagram - CLICK HERE

This week's quiz: On 25 October, just days after the famous theft of the French crown jewels from the Louvre, I asked you a question about another famous theft from the Louvre. You were to re-read our article “Paris police hunt Louvre thieves after priceless jewels vanish in daring heist”, and send in the answers to these three questions: Which artwork was stolen from the Louvre in 1911, and by whom? How did he do it? The answers are, to quote our article: “In 1911, the Mona Lisa famously vanished from its frame, spirited away by Vincenzo Peruggia, a former museum employee who hid overnight in a broom cupboard and simply walked out with the painting under his coat.” Interesting fun fact, also in our article: The Mona Lisa at that time was not a famous painting at all. Because the theft made global headlines, when it was recovered two years later in Florence, it had become the most famous painting in the world. In addition to the quiz question, there was the bonus question: What “Instant Karma” incident have you been involved in? Do you have a bonus question idea? Send it to us! The winners are: RFI Listeners Club member Jayanta Chakrabarty from New Delhi, India. Jayanta is also this week's bonus question winner. Congratulations on your double win, Jayanta.

There are RFI Listeners Club members Sahadot Hossain from Kishoreganj, Bangladesh and Karobi Hazarika from Assam, India, and last but not least, RFI English listener Khizar Hayat Shah, the president of the Sadat Listeners Club in Punjab, Pakistan. Congratulations winners! Here's the music you heard on this week's programme: The “Hunting Song” from Felix Mendelssohn's Songs Without Words Op.19 No.3, performed by Daniel Barenboim; the theme from To Catch a Thief by Armando Trovajoli; “The Flight of the Bumblebee” by Nicolai Rimsky-Korsakov; “The Cakewalk” from Children's Corner by Claude Debussy, performed by the composer, and “The Harder They Come” by Jimmy Cliff, performed by Jimmy Cliff and his ensemble.

This week's quiz: On 18 October, I asked you a question about Morocco, where the young people are demanding reforms on education and health care, as well as tackling corruption and a cost-of-living crisis. You were to re-read our article “Morocco Gen Z protesters call for 'peaceful sit-ins' to demand reforms”, and send in the answers to these two questions: What happened in the city of Agadir that lit the flame of the protests in September? And what is the combined cost the kingdom spent on renovating or building the stadiums for the Africa Cup of Nations and the FIFA World Cup? The answers are, to quote our article: “The protests erupted in late September, after the deaths of eight pregnant women during Caesarean sections at a hospital in Agadir, in southern Morocco, sparked anger over conditions at public health facilities.” And for the second question: “Economist Najib Akesbi says there is a fundamental problem in how resources are allocated. ‘The needs of the majority of the population are clearly not being prioritised,' he told RFI. ‘Instead, ostentatious, prestige-driven spending is favoured. That's the great imbalance.' The country's large-scale sports infrastructure – the stadiums built or renovated for the Africa Cup of Nations and the FIFA World Cup, with a combined budget of nearly €2 billion – are the most striking examples, Akesbi argued. ‘The big problem in Morocco is that we invest massively, but often in projects that are not profitable, that generate neither sufficient growth nor enough jobs,' he says.” In addition to the quiz question, there was the bonus question: What is your favorite memory of your grandparents? Do you have a bonus question idea? Send it to us! The winners are: RFI Listeners Club member Helmut Matt from Herbolzheim in Germany. Helmut is also the winner of this week's bonus question. Congratulations on your double win, Helmut. Also on the list of lucky winners this week are Reepa Bain, a member of the RFI Pariwer Bandhu SWL Club in Chhattisgarh, India, and Rubi Saikia, a member of the United RFI Listeners Club in Assam, also in India. Last but not least, there are RFI English listeners Zeeshan, a member of the International Radio Fan and Youth Club in Khanewal, Pakistan, and Zhum Zhum Sultana Eva, from Naogaon, Bangladesh. Congratulations winners! Here's the music you heard on this week's program: Polonaise op 2, no 2 by Dionisio Aguado, performed by Julian Bream; “Raqsa cha'abya” by Abderrahman el Hadri, performed by el Hadri and his ensemble; “The Flight of the Bumblebee” by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov; “The Cakewalk” from Children's Corner by Claude Debussy, performed by the composer, and “Tune for T” by Laurent de Wilde, performed by de Wilde and the New Monk Trio. Do you have a music request? Send it to thesoundkitchen@rfi.fr This week's question ... you must listen to the show to participate. After you've listened to the show, re-read our article “Louvre Museum in Paris shuts gallery over structural safety fears”, which will help you with the answer.

Aging quietly shapes everything - our economies, our politics, our families, and the horizon of what nations can become. Jacob and longevity expert Dylan Livingston, founder of the Alliance for Longevity Initiatives (A4LI), take a dive into the emerging science that treats aging not as fate, but as a solvable biological problem with staggering geopolitical consequences. The two explore how extending healthy human life could transform productivity, rebalance global power, upend healthcare economics, and challenge long-held assumptions about decline. At its core is a question: what happens when longevity becomes a public policy frontier, not a personal fantasy?--Timestamps:(00:00) - Introduction(00:21) - The Importance of Longevity(02:48) - Personal Journey into Longevity(04:48) - Historical Quest for Immortality(10:02) - Modern Longevity Science(13:13) - Challenges and Societal Implications(19:53) - A4LI's Mission and Achievements(27:38) - Policy and Future Goals(32:51) - FDA Guidance and Incentives for Therapeutics(34:01) - Supply Chain Concerns and American Manufacturing(35:32) - Political Perspectives on Longevity(37:13) - Bipartisan Efforts and Advocacy(41:55) - Challenges and Opportunities in Longevity Research(52:28) - Economic and Demographic Implications of Longevity(01:01:45) - Closing Remarks and Future Conversations--Referenced in the Show:A4LI - https://a4li.org/ --Jacob Shapiro Site: jacobshapiro.comJacob Shapiro LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/jacob-l-s-a9337416Jacob Twitter: x.com/JacobShapJacob Shapiro Substack: jashap.substack.com/subscribe --The Jacob Shapiro Show is produced and edited by Audiographies LLC.

Text us a pool question!Keywordsspa maintenance, water treatment, sanitization, pool care, spa treatments, bromine, chlorine, water balance, spa technology, pool serviceTakeawaysSummer is approaching, and clients have varying perceptions of swimming temperatures.Spa maintenance requires more frequent attention than regular pools due to their smaller size and higher usage.Educating staff in front of customers can undermine trust; it's better to do it privately.CO2 gas in carbonated drink bottles can affect water testing accuracy.Spas can have a high bathylode, equivalent to many more people in a pool.Regular servicing of spas is crucial to maintain water quality.Secondary sanitizers like UV and ozone can enhance spa water treatment.Hydrogen peroxide can be an effective sanitizer in domestic spas but not in commercial settings.Replacing spa water regularly can be more cost-effective than treating contaminated water.Understanding the chemistry of sanitizers is essential for effective spa maintenance.SummaryIn this conversation, the hosts discuss the nuances of spa maintenance, emphasizing the importance of regular servicing and the unique challenges posed by smaller bodies of water. They explore various sanitization methods, including bromine and chlorine, and highlight the significance of educating staff on water chemistry.

This week's quiz: On 26 July, I asked you a question about Paul Myers' article “Petition seeking repeal of new French farming law passes one million signatures”. It was about the Duplomb law, which was passed by the French parliament on 8 July. The law would allow the pesticide acetamiprid to be used, after a ban since 2018. French farmers protested the ban because it is allowed at the European level; they say it puts them at a disadvantage with their European counterparts. But two weeks after the bill passed, Eléonore Pattery, a young student from Bordeaux, launched a petition calling for a recall. And that was your question: you were to write in with the number of signatures on that petition as of 20 July, and also how many signatures French law requires before the lower house of Parliament, the Assemblée Nationale, has the right to hold a public debate on the contents of the petition. The answer is, to quote Paul's article: “Late on Sunday, the 20th of July, the number of signatures had risen to 1,159,000. Under French rules, once a petition crosses that threshold and has verified signatures from throughout the country, the Assemblée Nationale has the right to hold a public debate on the contents of the petition. The regulations also state that even if a petition gathers 500,000 names, it does not mean that the legislation will be reviewed or repealed.” In addition to the quiz question, there was the bonus question, suggested by RFI Listeners Club member Jocelyne D'Errico from New Zealand. She wanted to know how you feel and what you think about soulmates. Do you have a bonus question idea? Send it to us! The winners are: RFI English listener Kalyani Basak from West Bengal, India.

Congratulations winners! Here's the music you heard on this week's program: España by Emmanuel Chabrier, performed by the London Symphony Orchestra conducted by Ataúlfo Argenta; “Hoe-Down” from the ballet Rodeo by Aaron Copland, performed by the San Francisco Symphony conducted by Michael Tilson Thomas; “The Flight of the Bumblebee” by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov; “The Cakewalk” from Children's Corner by Claude Debussy, performed by the composer; “Happy” by Pharrell Williams, and “Mama Used to Say” by Junior Giscomb and Bob Carter, sung by Junior Giscomb.

Just like Europe went on the road and won a Ryder Cup in hostile territory last weekend, there was some elite quarterback play on the road from a handful of guys who get praise on today's show. Dante Moore, Julian Sayin, Ty Simpson, and CJ Carr all had to get it done away from home - and just like Europe - they did the thing. Don't worry, this is not a golf show. Far from it. Wayne empties the notebook on his observations from the good quarterback play (and the bad - see Drew Allar), plus we get into the week 6 card with Phil Steele who gets choked up talking about Vanderbilt football. Yes, really. It's October, people! Fall is here! Let the football and the leaves wash over you! Bathe in it!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Testing of Faith Produces PerseveranceJames 1:2 -4 & 12 “Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life, which God has promised to those who love him.”This is a pretty tall order. This verse asks us to consider it pure joy whenever you face trials of many kinds because we know that testing of our faith produces perseverance. I understand what the verse is saying. I understand the concept. I am just not sure I understand how to do this. I'm not sure joy would be the word I would use when I am undergoing trials. I would say words like sad, frustrated, mad, angry, annoyed, scared, lonely and defeated seem more like what I feel when I am going through trials. So, why is this verse telling us to feel joy? We often ask why we have to struggle? We ask why we have to face various kids of trials? I have learned from Father Mike that there isn't just one reason why we find ourselves in trials. Father Mike states several times in his Bible in a Year podcast that sometimes we do find ourselves in difficult trials because of something we have done. Sometimes we go against what the Lord wants us to do and there are consequences for that. Other times, the situation we are in is not of our own doing and does not mean that we did anything wrong. For instance, Job, he was a righteous in the eyes of the Lord, yet he suffered terribly. Not all suffering is a result of sin. Another example, of this is found in John 9:1-3 “As he went along, he saw a man blind from birth. His disciples asked him, "Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?” "Neither this man nor his parents sinned," said Jesus, "but this happened so that the work of God might be displayed in his life.”Do you see the reasons for your trials can vary. I think a lot of us think if we are struggling, then we must have done something to deserve it. God must be punishing us in some way. I have heard that one a lot. Jesus is telling us right here in the Bible, your trials are not always because of sin. Sometimes your trials are to show the work of God in your life. It is rare that you know the reason for your struggle while you are in it. However, even if you did, I am not sure it would make it easier. Take this verse for instance. It says that when our faith is tested we gain perseverance. Perseverance is great. It is often times the thing that gets us through our trials. I find it interesting that in order for our perseverance to grow we need to go through trails, yet our perseverance is what helps us get through those trials. I am glad that I have gained a lot of perseverance over the years. Even though I know that I will gain perseverance when I go through a hard time, it doesn't make that hard time easier. The rest of the verse says to “Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life, which God has promised to those who love him.” That all sounds wonderful. I definitely want to be mature and not lacking in anything. I also definitely want to receive the crown of life. The problem is, I don't know how to remain steadfast under trial. I don't know how to consider it joy that I have trials. I know what the Lord wants me to do, I am just not sure how to do it. I love how the Lord always gives us answers. I was just thinking that it would be nice if I could give you guys some tips on how to stay steadfast under trials and I did a quick internet search and found some. The article I found is titled Six ways to remain steadfast during trials and it is written by Dan Panetti. (CLICK HERE for article) I will post a link to the article in the show notes, but I will list Dan's six ideas here as well.Focus on what you can control—not on what you can't (Prov. 3:5–6 “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.”)Live in the moment—refuse to be anxious about tomorrow (Matt. 6:34 “Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.”)Look for ways to break up the monotony—tackle a home improvement project or learn to play a new card game. One of my sons proposed that I come up with a question for each family member to be researched and presented around the dinner table. It has sparked some of the best conversations we have ever had. Relax and take a walk—meditate on the ways that God has provided for you, delivered you from death, given you a purpose, and equipped you for his service (Psalm 116:7–9 “Return, O my soul, to your rest; for the Lord has dealt bountifully with you. For you have delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling; I will walk before the Lord in the land of the living.”)Bathe in a book of the Bible—not just read through it, but sit and soak in it! Think of Naaman going down into the Jordan again and again. Read and re-read a passage, chapter, or book—dive deep(er) into the Word!Memorize and meditate on Scripture—both of which are under appreciated spiritual disciplines. My oldest son and I are currently focusing on memorizing at least one verse from each book of the Bible.Just knowing that we grow in perseverance anytime our faith is tested might not be enough to help us find joy in our trials. However, maybe some of these ideas can help us to be steadfast in our trials. I like how the author even provided a few scripture verses to back up some of his suggestions. I have not done a lot of scripture memorizing in the past. However, I did try scripture writing for awhile and I thought it was great. If you want to give that a try, or even if you want to do the scripture memorizing and are not sure where to start, I started with an internet search of scripture writing plans. When you type that in you will get a whole list of scriptures, usually with a certain them, such as “wisdom,” “freedom,” “being bold,” all sorts of themes, whatever you might be struggling with the most. If you want to bathe in a book in the Bible, and you are not sure where to start, I have always been told a great place to start is in at the beginning of the new Testament, in the Gospel of Matthew, or the Psalms is another great place to start. I hope each of you will write these ideas down so that next time you are going through trials, they can help you remain steadfast. Wouldn't it be wonderful to be mature and not lacking in anything. If so, we need to let perseverance finish it work in us. In order to do this, we must make it through all the trials. In order to do this we must figure out a way to remain steadfast in our trials. I know it is difficult going through a difficult time and not understanding why you have to go through it. However, this verse gives us a little hope. One reason we are going through it is to test our faith. Are you going to remain steadfast? Do we want the crown of life? The choice is ours. Dear Heavenly Father, I ask you to bless all those listening to this episode today. Lord, we love you and we ask that you are with us in our times of trial. We ask that you give us the grace to find joy in our trials and that you help us to stay steadfast also. Lord, we want all you have to give us and that includes the crown of life. Help us to not drown in our difficult time. Sometimes it feels like we are drowning and we are asking that you save us before that happens. Lord, even if it is not the right time while we are going through it for us to know why it is all happening, please give us the grace to understand that if its not the reason, we will grow in perseverance while we make it through to the other side. Also, help us to feel your presence while in the trial and know that you are with us. We love you Lord, you are truly amazing. We are so very grateful for you. We ask all of this in accordance with your will and in Jesus' holy name, Amen.Thank you so much for joining me on your journey to walk boldly with Jesus.

Remember to copy me (thesoundkitchen@rfi.fr) when you write to her so that I know what is going on, too. N.B.: You do not need to send her your quiz answers! Email overload! This week's quiz: On 19 July, I asked you a question about RFI English journalist Dhananjay Khadilkar's video and article about the study of exoplanets, or extrasolar planets, which are planets outside of our solar system. As you read in Dhananjay's article “Swiss exoplanet pioneer reflects on Earth's place in the cosmos”, Didier Queloz, along with Michel Mayor, discovered the first exoplanet orbiting a solar-type star in 1995, which ushered in, as Dhananjay wrote, a new era in astronomy and planetary science. The two scientists won the 2019 Nobel Prize in Physics for their work. Dhananjay met with Didier Queloz, who told him, and I quote: “Looking for exoplanets is essentially looking for us.” What did Professor Queloz mean by that? You were to send in the answer to this question: According to Queloz, what is the essential reason for studying other planets? The answer is, to quote Dhananjay Khadilkar's article: “In essence, by studying other planetary systems, scientists are holding up a mirror to our own. Are the conditions that led to Earth's habitability common or exceedingly rare? Is our solar system an outlier, or just one example among countless others?” In addition to the quiz question, there was the bonus question: “Is it up to the State, the government, to decide what is fair, or what is just?” Do you have a bonus question idea? Send it to us! The winners are: RFI Listeners Club member Dipita Chakrabarty from New Delhi, India. Dipita is also the winner of this week's bonus quiz. Congratulations, Dipita, on your double win. Also on the list of lucky winners is RFI Listeners Club member Pradip Basak from Kerala, India, and RFI English listeners Debashis Gope from West Bengal, India; Liton Rahaman Khan from Naogaon, Bangladesh, and Rashidul Bin Somor, the General Secretary of the Source of Knowledge Club, also in Naogaon. Congratulations winners! Here's the music you heard on this week's program: The allegro di molto from the Symphony No 38 in C Major (the “Echo” symphony) by Franz Joseph Haydn, performed by the Austro-Hungarian Haydn Orchestra conducted by Adam Fischer; “Space Ambient” produced by Space Relax; “The Flight of the Bumblebee” by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov; “The Cakewalk” from Children's Corner by Claude Debussy, performed by the composer, and “Young at Heart” by Johnny Richards and Carolyn Leigh, sung by Connie Francis.

We know why you're here, and we don't blame you. This week, we tumble headfirst into the pit of despair that is All Blacks fandom after the Springboks dished out a pumpings in New Zealand's graveyard, Sky Stadium in Wellington.There's plenty of wallowing, but we also manage to lift our heads long enough to cover the excellent clash between Argentina and the Wallabies, and check in on all the action from the Women's World Cup.Grab a beer and enjoy.
College football Week 1 may be behind us but we still have plenty of ball to talk. On this week's episode Conor, Dave, Chad, and John recap a monumental Week 1, preview the Week 2 action, and deliver some Week 2 picks before closing out the show with some best bets for NFL Week 1.
If you asked me to choose between a fast-food hamburger or let's say a home cooked pot roast dinner with all the trimmings, it wouldn't take me much time to decide. It probably wouldn't take you much time either. But having lived in metropolitan areas most of my life, it was great to rush into McDonald's or Burger King and grab something. See, often the choice has been between dinner on the run and no dinner at all. So, that was an easy choice. But there was a time, believe it or not, when there weren't many fast-food places. (And yes, I can remember those.) We had to drive almost an hour where we lived at one point to get to a McDonald's. Oh, there were diners or expensive restaurants, but nothing really that fast. Now it is always, of course, my preference to have carefully prepared, full course meals. But sometimes, hey, you need what you need fast. I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about "Wisdom To Go." Now, our word for today from the Word of God comes from Nehemiah 2, and Nehemiah is the cupbearer to the King of Persia. He's had his heart broken when he's heard about the destroyed condition of his home city of Jerusalem, and he has been praying about this now for several months. And he goes before the king, and this particular conversation will turn out to change the course of history. "I took the wine and gave it to the king. I had not been sad in his presence before, so the king asked me, 'Why does your face look so sad when you are not ill? This could be nothing more than sadness of heart.' I was very much afraid, but I said to the king, 'May the king live forever! Why should my face not look sad when the city where my fathers are buried lies in ruins and its gates have been destroyed by fire?' The king said to me, 'What is it you want?'" Now, you can almost hear Nehemiah's knees shaking here as he says, "Then I prayed to the God of heaven and I answered the king." Well, he proceeds from here to tell all about his burden for the city. And the king responds and equips Nehemiah to go there, and miraculously that city is rebuilt in 52 days. Now, this turns out to be a decisive conversation. Nehemiah is really on the spot. Everything is riding on his answer. Now, it's nice when you have a week to pray for something but when you have just a moment and you really need some wisdom? But there are those moments when there is no chance for you to do any of those things. You have to get it fast. So, what does Nehemiah do? He's on the spot. He taps into one of God's most practical gifts - wisdom to go. You're faced with those kinds of crunches on many occasions. Whenever it's possible, of course, it's best to take some time to decide your next step. It's like taking time to prepare and eat a great dinner. But in some situations you barely have time to drive up to the window and say, "Wisdom to go please...with everything on it." But God will give it to you in those pressure moments, maybe like the ones you're in right now. He promises in James 1:5, "If we ask for wisdom, when we lack it, He will give it to us liberally." Notice the kind of lifestyle, though, that gets that instant insight. Nehemiah gets it because he is already a prayed up person. He's been praying for four months about this situation. He's bathed it in prayer. He has surrendered the situation to the Lord. Back to Nehemiah 1:11 he says, "I am your servant (talking to the Lord). Give your servant success today. Lord, it's all up to you." Now comes that sudden moment of truth when the king says, "What is it you want?" Nehemiah fires off a "Help!" to heaven. Now, your wisdom crunch may come in a moment of needing to know how to handle a situation with your child, or a situation at work, or how to respond to fast-breaking developments, or to an unexpected call. The good news is you can get the discernment you need to answer in God's will. Now, pray through the major arenas, the major relationships of your day. Bathe your life in prayer, and then pause before you answer to be sure that your line to heaven is open. And then, fire off that prayer in your heart, and then pick up your wisdom to go.
There's a beer you MUST try... or maybe not. Platte River Beer tastes JUST like you might expect.

On the precipice of the Battle of Austerlitz, Tolstoy illustrates the bravado and immaturity of youth.Here, I explore how Tolstoy incorporates elements of his own vice from his younger days, including pride and ambition. Both his early and late material speak to this, most notably personal journals from his time at university as well as the spiritual work, My Confession, written in 1879, when in his early 50s. The latter was an attempt to grapple with eternal questions such as: What am I doing?, and Why am I here? Tolstoy pursues answers in the mold of how Solomon (or “the Preacher”) is presented as taking them on in Ecclesiastes.Tolstoy appears to have reached the conclusion that those outside his social class (most notably humble peasants) have a higher chance of living in virtue and connecting with the Almighty. He implicitly argues for a reversion to a more simple Faith based on the Teachings of Christ.Early in Confession, Tolstoy famously wrote:I cannot think of those years without horror….. I killed men in war and challenged men to duels…. I lost at cards, consumed the labor of the peasants, sentenced them to punishments, lived loosely and deceived people. Lying, robbery, adultery of all kinds, drunkenness, violence, murder -- there was no crime I did not commit, and in spite of that people praised my conduct and my contemporaries considered and consider me to be a comparatively moral man. He could barely imagine such depravity among the peasant class.Tolstoy also references his early skepticism of the Russian Orthodox Church, especially as to rituals and teachings found outside the Gospel, such as certain prayers and the veneration of saints.He reflects that his “false faith” became trying to become the perfect earthly man and he rigorously tried to formulate methods to achieve success. Some of Tolstoy's suggestions, taken from his journals, are: never hesitate to speak before onlookers; lead the conversation and speak deliberately; do not constantly move from conversation to conversation or language or language; seek the company of High Society; and invite the most important ladies – as that will be the event to be at!An aunt who helped raise him strongly suggested that he have relations with a married woman of the highest status – as she believed nothing so fully formed a young man. She also wanted him to become an aide-de-camp, if possible to the Emperor. She further advised to marry into extreme wealth and become possessed of as many serfs as possible. Tolstoy's journals continue in a self-help fashion, suggesting: do not put off what you set out to do; make an effort and the thoughts and ideas of how to achieve goals will come; write down your plan and do not get up from the table until you make sufficient progress. Tolstoy also set regimented schedules for himself: 9-10 a.m.: Bathe and exercise, 10-12 a.m,: Music, play a least four pages of sheets, all scales and chords; 6-8 p.m.: Attend to his studies; 8-10 p.m.: Estate management.His time at the University of Kazan was an intense period of self-observation and served as a preparatory stage, filled with experimentation and vice, for where he wound up.Ultimately, Tolstoy came to realize his aristocratic peers developed this heightened arrogance, believing they are in the best position guide their fellow man. The rejection of such self-perfection efforts was significant to Tolstoy developing into an elderly sage, where pilgrimages were made to his estate.It is manifestly important to consider how Tolstoy embraces General Kutuzov as Napoleon's opposite - as more Godly and attuned to the unknowable nature of life. This symbolic depiction made the old general a national hero.This episode finishes by examining how the sinful ambitions he very much shared are fused into the characters of Napoleon, Boris, Berg, Anatole, Vasilly, Andrei, Pierre and Nicholas.
“Forest bathing” is the exceptionally simple Japanese practice of taking a walk — or a seat — in the woods. Why? For your health, of course! In our last episode, we learned about Chicago's urban forest — including the $416 million in benefits all those trees provide, in terms of energy cost savings, stormwater mitigation and air purification. Today, we're taking advantage of that urban forest by taking a bath in it. (And no, there is no soap or water required.) Our guide is the co-founder of The Spiritual Guidance Training Institute, Jeanette Banashak, who's also a faculty member at Erikson Institute downtown. Banashak has been leading forest bathing and nature companionship experiences for four years. She took Curious City to the Jarvis Bird Sanctuary on the North Side for what she called “a playful, slow, mindful, joyful walk [and] sit in the natural world.” The goal of forest bathing is to disconnect from urban life, de-stress and connect with nature. Banashak said the practice is rife with health benefits, from lowering blood pressure to improving immune function and calming your parasympathetic nervous system. And although the practice does not require a guide, Banashak has a dream of training facilitators of these experiences to offer weekly sessions, year-round, on every side of the city. Lucky for us, Chicago has plenty of parks, bird sanctuaries, and natural spaces in which you can forest bathe. So join us. All you need to do is make the time and press play.

A man sits alone in his worn-out armchair, the flicker of a TV casting shadows across the room. Then, out of nowhere, a spark—no warning, no flame, just a sudden, impossible heat. In minutes, he's gone, reduced to ash, while the chair beneath him barely smolders. They call it spontaneous human combustion, a mystery that creeps into the edges of our understanding, leaving behind questions that itch at the back of your mind. How does a body burn so hot, so fast, with no source, no fuel, no mercy? Now imagine the stories—hundreds of them, whispered over decades. A woman found in her kitchen, nothing but a pile of soot and a single unburned foot, the stove cold as stone. A farmer in his field, charred to nothing while the grass around him stays green. No screams, no smoke, just silence and a lingering smell of something wrong. Scientists scramble for answers—chemical reactions, freak accidents—but the truth slips through their fingers like ash in the wind. Tonight, we're diving into that darkness, peeling back the layers of this eerie riddle. What ignites a person from the inside out? We'll see you on the inside.
