Content WarningThis episode contains discussions of poisoning and death. Support resources are listed at the end of these notes.This EpisodeSeason 39: The Balham Mystery. April 1876—a young barrister collapses in agony minutes after retiring to bed. For three days, Charles Bravo suffers while doctors, family, and suspects gather. He names no one. The poison is antimony—enough to kill ten men.Behind the gaslit elegance of The Priory, a household harbors dangerous secrets. A wife with a scandalous past. A companion facing dismissal. A former lover humiliated by her marriage. And a husband who knew everything—and paid the ultimate price.The VictimCharles Delauney Bravo was thirty years old when he died on 21 April 1876. A barrister called to the bar only recently, he had married Florence Campbell just four months earlier, on 7 December 1875. The marriage brought him access to Florence's considerable fortune—approximately £40,000, inherited from her first husband Alexander Ricardo.Charles was ambitious. His chambers at Essex Court in the Temple represented the foundation of a legal career he hoped would match his new social position. But colleagues described a man preoccupied with money—Florence's money—and control over the household he had married into.On that final Tuesday, Charles argued with Florence in their carriage, his horse bolted during an afternoon ride, and by nightfall he had consumed enough antimony to "kill a horse," according to the doctors who watched him die.The CrimeThe evening of 18 April 1876 began unremarkably. Charles, Florence, and her companion Jane Cox dined together at The Priory on Bedford Hill. Charles ate well—whiting, lamb, eggs on toast—and drank several glasses of burgundy. Neither woman touched the wine.After dinner, they retired to the morning room. Around nine o'clock, Charles suggested Florence retire to bed. She had been unwell. Jane accompanied her upstairs.Charles remained alone.Approximately fifteen minutes later, he climbed the stairs to his bedroom. The housemaid Mary Ann Keeber passed him on the staircase. She would later tell police that he looked at her strangely—pale, silent, studying her face.In his room, Charles undressed and reached for the water jug that servants prepared fresh each evening. He drank. Within minutes, his bedroom door flew open and he staggered onto the landing, screaming for Florence, for hot water, vomiting violently.The post-mortem revealed thirty to forty grains of tartar emetic—a derivative of antimony—ten times the lethal dose. The poison had been in the water.The InvestigationThe first inquest convened on 25 and 28 April 1876. Coroner William Carter sought to spare the family's feelings, keeping the inquiry private. The jury returned an open verdict.But Charles's stepfather, Joseph Bravo, was not satisfied. He demanded a second investigation.The second inquest ran for an unprecedented twenty-three days, from 11 July through 11 August 1876, at the Bedford Hotel in Balham. It became a Victorian sensation. Crowds gathered in the streets. Newspapers printed every salacious detail—Florence's affair with Dr James Manby Gully, the abortion in Bavaria, the household tensions, Charles's jealousy.Our Sponsors:* Check out BetterHelp: https://www.betterhelp.com* Check out Kensington Publishing: https://www.kensingtonbooks.comSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/foulplay/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

This week, Scott sat down with his foreign-policy-minded colleagues Daniel Byman, Michael Feinberg, and Ari Tabatabai to talk through some recent big news stories around the world, including:“Beer Hall Push-back.” Over the weekend, a raft of bipartisan U.S. and European officials headed to Bavaria for the annual Munich Security Conference. Last year, Vice President J.D. Vance gave a barnburner of a speech, accusing European allies of restraining free speech and giving succor to the European far right. This year, Secretary of State Marco Rubio gave a more conciliatory set of remarks that nonetheless signaled that there were some fundamental changes happening in the relationship. For their part, European leaders mostly seemed to be on board with that as they increasingly leaned into the public stance that it was time for the continent to stand on its own, independent of the United States, although how feasible that will be and on what timeline remain the big questions. What should we make of the different remarks we heard from the conference and the broader messages the two sides are sending to each other? And is this a sign of an impending divorce or a different sort of shift in the U.S.-European transatlantic relationship? “Rial Talk.” American and Iranian officials met again this week in Geneva to negotiate an end to the Islamic Republic's nuclear weapons program in exchange for an easing or elimination of U.S. sanctions on Iran. The negotiations took place amidst continued saber rattling by both President Trump and Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, who threatened in a speech ahead of the talks to sink U.S. warships in the region if Iran came under attack. Nonetheless, some participants in the negotiations—particularly the mediators from Oman—seemed optimistic that the two sides were getting closer to some sort of common understanding about how they might move forward. But U.S. military assets are continuing to accumulate in the region, leading some to conclude that a military operation may yet be on the horizon. Is there space for a deal? Or iare we going to see another war in Iran?“Xi Who Must Not Be Named.” A year in, the second Trump administration has not proven to be the China hawk that many expected. Far from drawing a hard line on all things China as the first Trump administration often seemed to do, U.S. officials have instead been surprisingly quiet and conciliatory in regard to China, at least outside the trade context. This has remained true even as reports have emerged of Xi Jinping purging his military of non-loyalists, modernizing China's nuclear arsenal, and building more submarines—all steps with the potential to significantly upset the balance of power in Asia and beyond. What is the real logic underlying the Trump administration's seemingly quixotic approach to China, and where might it lead the broader relationship between the two major powers? In object lessons, Dan is delighting in John Company, a social-climbing, backroom-dealing, hostile-bargaining board game to, you know, escape the harsh realities of the real world. Ari enthusiastically recommends the Broadway adaptation of Death Becomes Her, which somehow manages to be even quirkier than the original film. Scott has been sucked into the social media abyss by Jess and Quinn's corny, absurdist, and pun-oriented humor. And Mike offers an anti-object-lesson warning: the “Poetry for Kids” series is not, in fact, reliably for kids.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

After 13 years of fighting in the Low Countries, Maximilian, the newly elected king of the Roman, returns home to a rammed full inbox. There is his cousin, the dissolute count Sigismund of Tyrol who is about to sell out the family fortune to the dukes of Bavaria. The king of Hungary is still occupying Vienna – and there is a new heiress out on the market, Anne of Brittanny.Some of the issues he tackles together with his now seriously elderly father, the emperor Friedrich III, others are very much his own tasks. In the process Friedrich creates a structurally new political entity, the Swabian League, Maximilian builds a relationship with Jakob Fugger, the money man who will grease the cogs of the Habsburg empire, and once again they fight, one battle after another.And despite tremendous success, this period from 1489 to 1493, ends with some epic humiliation, not in war, but in love. “No man on earth has ever been disgraced as I have been at the hands of the French” is how he summarised it.Come along and watch as the plot thickens.The music for the show is Flute Sonata in E-flat major, H.545 by Carl Phillip Emmanuel Bach (or some claim it as BWV 1031 Johann Sebastian Bach) performed and arranged by Michel Rondeau under Common Creative Licence 3.0.As always:Homepage with maps, photos, transcripts and blog: www.historyofthegermans.comIf you wish to support the show go to: Support • History of the Germans PodcastFacebook: @HOTGPod Threads: @history_of_the_germans_podcastBluesky: @hotgpod.bsky.socialInstagram: history_of_the_germansTwitter: @germanshistoryTo make it easier for you to share the podcast, I have created separate playlists for some of the seasons that are set up as individual podcasts. they have the exact same episodes as in the History of the Germans, but they may be a helpful device for those who want to concentrate on only one season.

The Age of Victoria returns for the 2026 season with a high-energy prologue to our new series, “Hunger and Revolution”. In this episode, we follow the “magnificent, terrible, magnetic” Lola Montez as she transitions from the stage to the high-stakes world of European politics. Lola becomes an “accidental bunch of dynamite,” moving through the bohemian circles of Paris and the royal halls of Munich. Her volatile relationship with the “rockstar” composer Franz Liszt and her scandalous influence over King Ludwig I of Bavaria serve as a sparking point for the unrest that would soon consume the continent. Against the grim backdrop of the “Continental Famine” and rising industrial tensions, we examine how one woman's individual actions could help bring the curtain down on the pre-modern age. Key Topics Covered: Bohemian Paris in the 1840s: A city of romance and industry undergoing a transformation marked by early railway stations, gas streetlights, and artistic experimentation. Lisztomania and the Great Composers: Exploring the electric performances and scandalous love life of Franz Liszt—the “rockstar” of the 19th century—who redefined the status of the artist in society. The Duel of Dujarier: Lola's time in the French literary scene alongside figures like Victor Hugo ended in tragedy when her lover, journalist Alexandre Henri Dujarier, was killed in a reluctant pistol duel. The “Gallery of Beauties”: A look at the 36 oil paintings in King Ludwig's collection, where Lola's portrait eventually sparked a national scandal. The Continental Famine: Examining the “parallel story” of the 1845–1847 potato blight across Europe that fueled the urban discontent leading to the 1848 revolutions. The Fall of Munich: The student riots at the University of Munich involving the “Lolamannen,” the exile of Montez, and King Ludwig I's ultimate abdication. “The Battle of Ballarat”: A summary of Lola's later years, including her infamous whip-fight with a newspaper editor in the Australian goldfields. Works Cited & Sources: Edmund B. d'Auvergne: Lola Montez: An Adventuress of the 'Forties (Project Gutenberg).

WhoRyan Brown, Director of Golf & Ski at The Mountaintop at Grand Geneva, WisconsinRecorded onJune 17, 2025About the Mountaintop at Grand GenevaClick here for a mountain stats overviewOwned by: Marcus HotelsLocated in: Lake Geneva, WisconsinYear founded: 1968Pass affiliations: NoneClosest neighboring U.S. ski areas: Alpine Valley (:23), Wilmot Mountain (:29), Crystal Ridge (:48), Alpine Hills Adventure Park (1:04)Base elevation: 847 feetSummit elevation: 962 feetVertical drop: 115 feetSkiable acres: 30Average annual snowfall: 34 inchesTrail count: 21 (41% beginner, 41% intermediate, 18% advanced)Lift count: 6 (3 doubles, 1 ropetow, 2 carpets)Why I interviewed himOf America's various mega-regions, the Midwest is the quietest about its history. It lacks the quaint-town Colonialism and Revolutionary pride of the self-satisfied East, the cowboy wildness and adobe earthiness of the West, the defiant resentment of the Lost Glory South. Our seventh-grade Michigan History class stapled together the state's timeline mostly as a series of French explorers passing through on their way to somewhere more interesting. They were followed by a wave of industrial loggers who mowed the primeval forests into pancakes. Then the factories showed up. And so the state's legacy was framed not as one of political or cultural or military primacy, but of brand, the place that stamped out Chevys and Fords by the tens of millions.To understand the Midwest, then, we must look for what's permanent. The land itself won't do. It's mostly soil, mostly flat. Great for farming, bad for vistas. Dirt doesn't speak to the soul like rock, like mountains. What humans built doesn't tell us a much better story. Everything in the Midwest feels too new to conceal ghosts. The largest cities rose late, were destroyed in turn by fires and freeways, eventually recharged with arenas and glass-walled buildings that fail to echo or honor the past. Nothing lasts: the Detroit Pistons built the Palace of Auburn Hills in 1988 and developers demolished it 32 years later; the Detroit Lions (and, for a time, the Pistons) played at the Pontiac Silverdome, a titanic, 82,600-spectator stadium that opened in 1976 and came down in 2013 (37 years old). History seemed to bypass the region, corralling the major wars to the east and shooing the natural disasters to the west and south. Even shipwrecks lose their doubloons-and-antique-cannons romance in the Midwest: the Great Lakes most famous downed vessel, the SS Edmund Fitzgerald, sank into Lake Superior in 1975. Her cargo was 26,535 tons of taconite ore pellets. A sad story, but not exactly the sinking of the Titanic.Our Midwest ancestors did leave us one legacy that no one has yet demolished: names. Place names are perhaps the best cultural relics of the various peoples who occupied this land since the glaciers retreated 12,000-ish years ago. Thousands of Midwest cities, towns, and counties carry Native American names. “Michigan” is derived from the Algonquin “Mishigamaw,” meaning “big lake”; “Minnesota” from the Sioux word meaning “cloudy water.” The legacies of French explorers and missionaries live on in “Detroit” (French for “strait”), “Marquette” (17th century French missionary Jacques Marquette), and “Eau Claire” (“clear water”).But one global immigration funnel dominated what became the modern Midwest: 50 percent of Wisconsin's population descends from German, Nordic, or Scandinavian countries, who arrived in waves from the Colonial era through the early 1900s. The surnames are everywhere: Schmitz and Meyer and Webber and Schultz and Olson and Hanson. But these Old-Worlders came a bit late to name the cities and towns. So they named what they built instead. And they built a lot of ski areas. Ten of Wisconsin's 34 ski areas carry names evocative of Europe's cold regions, Scandinavia and the Alps:I wonder what it must have been like, in 18-something-or-other, to leave a place where the Alps stood high on the horizon, where your family had lived in the same stone house for centuries, and sail for God knows how many weeks or months across an ocean, and slow roll overland by oxen cart or whatever they moved about in back then, and at the end of this great journey find yourself in… Wisconsin? They would have likely been unprepared for the landscape aesthetic. Tourism is a modern invention. “The elite of ancient Egypt spent their fortunes building pyramids and having their corpses mummified, but none of them thought of going shopping in Babylon or taking a skiing holiday in Phoenicia [partly in present-day Lebanon, which is home to as many as seven ski areas],” Yuval Noah Harari writes in Sapiens his 2015 “brief history of humankind.” Imagine old Friedrich, who had never left Bavaria, reconstituting his world in the hillocks and flats of the Midwest.Nothing against Wisconsin, but fast-forward 200 years, when the robots can give us a side-by-side of the upper Midwest and the European Alps, and it's pretty clear why one is a global tourist destination and the other is known mostly as a place that makes a lot of cheese. And well you can imagine why Friedrich might want to summon a little bit of the old country to the texture of his life in the form of a ski area name. That these two worlds - the glorious Alps and humble Wisconsin skiing - overlap, even in a handful of place names, suggests a yearning for a life abandoned, a natural act of pining by a species that was not built to move their life across timezones.This is not a perfect analysis. Most – perhaps none – of these ski areas was founded by actual immigrants, but by their descendants. The Germanic languages spoken by these immigrant waves did not survive assimilation. But these little cultural tokens did. The aura of ancestral place endured when even language fell away. These little ski areas honor that.And by injecting grandiosity into the everyday, they do something else. In coloring some of the world's most compact ski centers with the aura of some of its most iconic, their founders left us a message: these ski areas, humble as they are, matter. They fuse us to the past and they fuse us to the majesty of the up-high, prove to us that skiing is worth doing anywhere that it can be done, ensure that the ability to move like that and to feel the things that movement makes you feel are not exclusive realms fenced into the clouds, somewhere beyond means and imagination.Which brings us to Grand Geneva, a ski area name that evokes the great Swiss gateway city to the Alps. Too bad reality rarely matches up with the easiest narrative. The resort draws its name from the nearby town of Lake Geneva, which a 19th-century surveyor named not after the Swiss city, but after Geneva, New York, a city (that is apparently named after Geneva, Switzerland), on the shores of Seneca Lake, the largest of the state's 11 finger lakes. Regardless, the lofty name was the fifth choice for a ski area originally called “Indian Knob.” That lasted three years, until the ski area shuttered and re-opened as the venerable Playboy Ski Area in 1968. More regrettable names followed – Americana Resort from 1982 to '93, Hotdog Mountain from 1992 to '94 – before going with the most obvious and least-questionable name, though its official moniker, “The Mountaintop at Grand Geneva” is one of the more awkward names in American skiing.None of which explains the principal question of this sector: why I interviewed Mr. Brown. Well, I skied a bunch of Milwaukee bumps on my drive up to Bohemia from Chicago last year, this was one of them, and I thought it was a cute little place. I also wondered how, with its small-even-for-Wisconsin vertical drop and antique lift collection, the place had endured in a state littered with abandoned ski areas. Consider it another entry into my ongoing investigation into why the ski areas that you would not always expect to make it are often the ones that do.What we talked aboutFighting the backyard effect – “our customer base – they don't really know” that the ski areas are making snow; a Chicago-Milwaukee-Madison bullseye; competing against the Vail-owned mountain to the south and the high-speed-laced ski area to the north; a golf resort with a ski area tacked on; “you don't need a big hill to have a great park”; brutal Midwest winters and the escape of skiing; I attempt to talk about golf again and we're probably done with that for a while; Boyne Resorts as a “top golf destination”; why Grand Geneva moved its terrain park; whether the backside park could re-open; “we've got some major snowmaking in the works”; potential lift upgrades; no bars on the lifts; the ever-tradeoff between terrain parks and beginner terrain; the ski area's history as a Playboy Club and how the ski hill survived into the modern era; how the resort moves skiers to the hill with hundreds of rooms and none of them on the trails; thoughts on Indy Pass; and Lake Geneva lake life.What I got wrongWe recorded this conversation prior to Sunburst's joining Indy Pass, so I didn't mention the resort when discussing Wisconsin ski areas on the product.Podcast NotesOn the worst season in the history of the MidwestI just covered this in the article that accompanied the podcast on Treetops, Michigan, but I'll summarize it this way: the 2023-24 ski season almost broke the Midwest. Fortunately, last winter was better, and this year is off to a banging start.On steep terrain beneath lift AI just thought this was a really unexpected and cool angle for such a little hill. On the Playboy ClubFrom SKI magazine, December 1969:It is always interesting when giants merge. Last winter Playboy magazine (5.5 million readers) and the Playboy Club (19 swinging nightclubs from Hawaii to New York to Jamaica, with 100,000 card-carrying members) in effect joined the sport of skiing, which is also a large, but less formal, structure of 3.5 million lift-ticket-carrying members. The resulting conglomerate was the Lake Geneva Playboy Club-Hotel, Playboy's ski resort on the rolling plains of Wisconsin.The Playboy Club people must have borrowed the idea of their costumed Bunny Waitress from the snow bunny of skiing fame, and since Playboy and skiing both manifestly devote themselves to the pleasures of the body, some sort of merger was inevitable. Out of this union, obviously, issued the Ultimate Ski Bunny – one able to ski as well as sport the scanty Bunny costume to lustrous perfection.That's a bit different from how the resort positions its ski facilities today:Enjoy southern Wisconsin's gem - our skiing and snow resort in the countryside of Lake Geneva, with the best ski hills in Wisconsin. The Mountain Top at Grand Geneva Resort & Spa boasts 20 downhill ski runs and terrain designed for all ages, groups and abilities, making us one of the best ski resorts in Wisconsin.

Over the past decade, the oil and gas industry has sharpened its drilling skills, extracting fossil fuels at greater depths — and with more precision — than ever before. What if there was a way to tap those advances to generate zero-carbon energy?The Canadian company Eavor (pronounced “ever”) says it can do so. Its closed-loop geothermal system is already producing heat at competitive prices in Europe, and it says it will soon be able to drill deep enough to fuel the electricity system, too. It just opened a first-of-its-kind demonstration facility in Germany, which is successfully heating and powering the small hamlet of Geretsreid, Bavaria.On this week's episode of Shift Key, Rob and Jesse chat with Mark Fitzgerald, the president and CEO of Eavor, about how its new technology works, how it differs from other forms of advanced geothermal, and why Europe is a good test bed for heat-generating projects. We also chat about what Mark, who previously ran Petronas Canada, learned in his 35 years in the oil industry.Shift Key is hosted by Robinson Meyer, the founding executive editor of Heatmap, and Jesse Jenkins, a professor of energy systems engineering at Princeton University.

MASS SHOOTING REPORTED AT BROWN UNIVERSITY IN PROVIDENCE.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE----- -International Events-Australia: A few hours ago, a complex terror attack took place at a Hanukkah event in Bondi Beach. Multiple gunmen approached a gathering of people at a picnic area on the east side of the park, and began engaging those taking part in holiday celebrations. At least two gunmen took up a tactical position on the pedestrian bridge at grid coordinate: 56H LH 40786 48784 // 61.2 ft MSL. From there, the gunmen began firing at event participants in the park below. After a few minutes, these two shooters were eventually neutralized by armed police on this bridge.At least one other gunman was present at the shooting, but was disarmed by a bystander who attacked the shooter with his bare hands and took the weapon from him. This disarmed-shooter was later detained by police on the pedestrian bridge with the others.Analyst Comment: Concerning casualties, right now the number stands at 10x killed during the attack, with a few dozen wounded. At least two of the attackers were wounded/killed by armed police, however their status is not known. The total number of shooters involved in this attack is also not known, but right now the count stands at 3x shooters taking part in the attack. At least one shooter did survive, as indicated by the videos of the incident taken by observers. Regarding the identities of the attackers, official confirmation of their name and status will take some time. However, photos of some of the shooter's drivers licenses have circulated social media in the hours after the attack. At least one of the attackers appears to be Naveed Akram, who had a NSW driver license.Germany: Yesterday a vehicle ramming attack was foiled by police, which involved a local terror cell in lower Bavaria. Local authorities state that 5x suspects have been arrested after they planned to carry out a vehicle ramming attack at a Christmas Market in the Dingolfing-Landau area.Analyst Comment: The suspects have not been identified by name, however their nationalities are: 1x Egyptian, 3x Moroccans, and 1x Syrian. All are currently being held in pre-trial detention, and more documents are expected to be released regarding how this plot was alleged to have been planned. -HomeFront-Rhode Island: Yesterday evening a mass shooting was reported at Brown University after a shooter opened fire during final exams near the Barus and Holley Engineering building on campus. 2x people were killed and 9x were wounded during the attack.Analyst Comment: The assailant egressed from the area after the shooting, which triggered a manhunt for several hours and prevented the scene from being secured for medical personnel to provide aid to the wounded. As of this morning, police state that they have one "person of interest" in custody regarding the case, however they stopped short of calling this person a suspect. Officially, the shooter has not been captured yet. No weapon was recovered from the scene, and the assailant was wearing a mask during the attack.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: In Germany, it must be noted that if this terror cell was rolled up by police, there are probably others which have not yet been detected. Five terrorists is NOT a lone-wolf-style attack, and heavily indicates a more hierarchical organization structure. Depending on how well this cell was organized and commanded, this could mean that other terrorists that haven't been detected yet might be motivated to accelerate their attack planning. Considering the success of the horrific attack in Australia, it's possible that other attacks are coming down the pipeline. As such, inc

But have you ever wondered what life was really like for your favorite Disney Princess? Let's take a look at each of Disney's 16 animated Princesses, including the latest addition, Asha, to determine where and when they are most likely set. Then I'll match each iconic princess to a real-life royal woman from the same time and place. So we can get a sense of what life without witches, curses and singing animal sidekicks was really like.

Christmas in Germany carries a depth and detail that shaped many of the world's most familiar holiday customs. From Advent wreaths glowing on winter evenings to the aroma of spiced markets and the gentle presence of Christkind, German Christmas traditions reflect centuries of Christian devotion, regional identity, and storytelling. Many of the images that Americans and other nations now consider "classic Christmas" took root in German homes long before crossing the Atlantic through immigrant families. For genealogists, these customs are especially revealing. The German-speaking world is not a single cultural block; it is a set of regions with their own rituals, dialects, and gift-bringers. Whether an ancestor came from Bavaria, the Rhineland, Saxony, or one of the historic kingdoms or principalities, their Christmas practices offer clues to where they lived, what they believed, and how they observed the Nativity. Germany's Christmas traditions did not emerge suddenly. They formed through centuries of Christian worship, household customs, artistic craft, and local practice. In this article, we explore these traditions with attention to the Nativity story, the gift-givers who visit German homes, the importance of Advent, and the genealogical hints preserved in these cultural details...

In this Friday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan covers the U.S. government shutdown's impact on national security, Democrats' energy messaging strategy, Ford's massive electric truck losses, China's latest espionage scandal, and new medical research linking heart and brain health. U.S. Troops Told to Visit German Food Banks: A U.S. Army base in Bavaria posted a list of local soup kitchens for service members and families struggling during the shutdown — a move that shocked German media and sparked Pentagon embarrassment. Bryan warns foreign spy agencies could exploit unpaid American personnel for recruitment, saying, "That's how the CIA would target desperate officers abroad — and it's happening to us now." Democrats' Winning Playbook: Democrats' recent election victories were fueled by economic messaging, especially on rising energy costs. Bryan explains how candidates tied AI data centers and electric vehicles to higher utility bills — a strategy Republicans must counter before 2026. Ford's Electric F-150 Collapse: The automaker faces $13 billion in losses after poor demand for its Lightning pickup. Bryan notes Toyota's hybrid-first strategy is proving right, calling the EV rush "a cultish demand that ignored market reality." China's Espionage and Agricultural Games: Three Chinese nationals in Michigan were arrested for smuggling genetically modified worms, while Beijing signed $5 billion in new U.S. grain deals. Bryan warns that "China is both robbing our labs and buying our fields." Trump Weighs Action in Nigeria and Venezuela: The President is considering U.S. military intervention in Nigeria to protect Christians from Islamist attacks while reviewing regime-change options in Venezuela. Bryan asks listeners to consider: "How many American lives would we trade to save others abroad?" Dementia and Heart Disease Discoveries: British scientists found that small increases in heart enzyme levels may predict dementia risk years before symptoms. Meanwhile, South Korean researchers discovered gut bacteria linked to coronary artery disease, reinforcing the connection between diet, heart health, and brain function.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: U.S. Army Bavaria food banks shutdown, Pentagon security risk spy recruitment, Democrats energy utility bill messaging, Ford F-150 Lightning EV losses, Toyota hybrid success, Chinese bioresearch smuggling Michigan, Trump Nigeria Christians military intervention, Venezuela Maduro regime change debate, dementia heart enzyme biomarker, gut bacteria coronary artery disease

Rigby's Encyclopaedia of the Herring: Adventures with the King of Fishes (Hurst, 2025) by Graeme Rigby contains almost everything you didn't know you needed to know about Atlantic herrings. (Pacific and Baltic varieties are in there too.) Herrings make the world bigger: with spawnings seen from space, a trillion individuals make this one of the tastiest and most abundant vertebrates on Earth. From ‘A Beginning' to ‘Zuiderzee', count the wars fought over herrings; don't forget Scotland vs the Holy Roman Empire. The herring's high-pitched farts were logged as Soviet submarines, and one herring joke featured in a Jonson play, four Shakespeare plays and the glorious, suppressed fantasia Nashes Lenten Stuffe. Herrings mock taxonomists; physically change with sea temperature and salinity; stuff predators full to bursting, then swim away. The Great Sardine Litigation? The true history of kippers? Bloaters? Reds? Chopped herring? Shuba? All this and more. Between sustainable fishery genetics, sixteenth-century Bavaria's ‘Herrings, herrings, stinking herrings', and Van Gogh's ear, every entry is a story, a comic journey, an adventure. Some even come with recipes.

AI SUMMARY: Summary: Felix from WAVE.space discusses their innovative Visa debit card, WAVE card, which allows users to spend Bitcoin anywhere Visa is accepted. Launched in February as a virtual card, they're working towards a physical card, facing delays due to partnerships with various entities, including banks and Visa/MasterCard. These partnerships are essential as WAVE.space outsources regulatory licenses to focus on product development. A key hurdle is getting card designs approved by Visa and MasterCard, who are cautious about brand association. WAVE.space is transitioning from Visa to MasterCard for better control over card settings within their platform. The card currently supports euros, with plans to expand to other currencies by partnering with entities in different regions, such as Estonia, to handle regulatory aspects. Users can create an account on the WAVE.space web app, complete KYC verification, and deposit Bitcoin to start using the card. Users can also connect self-custodial wallets via NostriWallet Connect to spend Bitcoin directly. WAVE.space aims to enable users to live on a Bitcoin standard, offering an instant swap feature for buying and selling Bitcoin between wallets and bank accounts. This service is facilitated through a partnership with a virtual assets service provider, which is also applying for MiCA licensing. Felix highlights that the company is using other Bitcoin focused companies to leverage themselves off of. The company charges a 1% fee on conversions, whether buying, selling, or spending Bitcoin. Customer feedback reveals unexpected use cases, including Bitcoin beginners using the card to understand Bitcoin better and buying Bitcoin with euros to spend via the card. Some users leverage the platform for reliable and private Bitcoin sales, as WAVE.space issues IBANs in the user's name, ensuring that transfers to their bank accounts appear as internal transfers, avoiding scrutiny from banks. Felix shares a story of someone in the UK struggling to buy a house after selling Bitcoin and recommends people use WAVE.space in Europe to avoid those issues. Felix says the company has a thousand users and is growing 70-80% each month. The company was bootstrapped by three co-founders and then had investment from angels, one of which was one of the first angel investors in Relay. Felix is looking for investors who understand the goals of the company. There are plans for loyalty and rewards programs, potentially integrating with platforms like Satsback, and expanding partnerships with airlines like EasyJet and accommodation providers like Airbnb. Felix shares that the company has a blog post talking about people shorting Bitcoin without realizing it. The WAVE card lowers people's time preference because it causes them to ask the question, "Is this worth 30,000 sats?" Felix recommends people check out the Telegram group, website, and Twitter account for the latest information. He plans to be at Bitcoin Forum in Bavaria and Lugano's Plan B conference. Felix jokes that if he had one orange pill left, he would give it to Christine Lagarde.

Hello friends of the History of the Germans. I am afraid there will not be an episode this week. I would have preferred to say that I have caught a bug or something, but the truth is, I just could not put something together that lives up to your and my standards. Sorry, this does not happen very often, but it does. The muse was busy somewhere else or missed the entry point for my humble attic. So, rather than wasting your time with something sub-par, I decided to call it off for this week. I will go back to the drawing board and make sure something sensible shows up in your feed next week.If however you need your weekly fix of German history content, you can go to the History Rage Podcast where Paul Bavil allowed me to go on for far too long about my pet hate, which is people endlessly repeating Voltaire's quip that the Holy Roman empire was neither Holy, nor Roman nor an empire. Not only is that joke 200 years old, it isn't even accurate. https://pod.fo/e/3330ceAnd if you are of a gentler disposition and cannot bear me losing my rag, you can always prepare yourself for next week's episode by listening back to some older episodes where we have discussed the mid-15th century in the Hanseatic League, Prussia, Bohemia and Germany. For instance episode 122, where we heard how right around this time the Hanseatic League's stranglehold over the Baltic led to a collapse of the once sprawling herring fair in Scania and the rise of the Dutch herring industry based in Amsterdam. In episode 136 we covered the 13-year long war between the Teutonic Knights and the cities and major aristocrats of Prussia, that started in 1454 and ended up with the loss of Gdansk and Western Prussia. The Mainzer Stiftsfehde and the Furstenkrieg that also fall into this period is so complex, we had to break it down into multiple podcasts. Episode 186 about Mainz and Hessen, 189 about the Count Palatine on the Rhine and his conflict with Friedrich III, 191/192 where we look at the involvement of Baden and Wurttemberg, and 196 and 197 about the internecine warfare in Bavaria that linked into it. Or just think of a number, any number between zero and 209, and listen to that episode. Either that or listen to any of the thousands ad thousands of other great episodes talented podcasters put out every week.See you next week.The music for the show is Flute Sonata in E-flat major, H.545 by Carl Phillip Emmanuel Bach (or some claim it as BWV 1031 Johann Sebastian Bach) performed and arranged by Michel Rondeau under Common Creative Licence 3.0.As always:Homepage with maps, photos, transcripts and blog: www.historyofthegermans.comIf you...

In this episode, I tell the story of a haunting in Bavaria that was claimed to be the first in which paranormal phenomena was scientifically observed. The Rosenheim Poltergeist claim is a perfect case for examining the ghost story generally, its history, and the pseudoscience of parapsychology.

Spring in Bavaria — soft hills, quiet cows, the sleepy days of a farm world nobody ever writes about. But Hinterkaifeck was already rotten to the roots long before the first skull cracked open in the hay. Foul rumors, missing keys, footsteps in the attic, shadows in the woods — the whole place felt like a bad dream pretending to be normal life. Then, one cold night in 1922, somebody lured the Gruber family out one by one, killed them with farm tools, and stayed. Slept in their beds. Fed the cows. Kept the fire burning while six bodies cooled a few feet away. Part one drags you back to that doomed little farm, through gossip thick as mud, neighbors who looked the other way, and a crime scene so disturbing its still discussed over a century later. This isn't just murder — It's the kind of story that crawls under your skin and never leaves. Citizens of the Milky Way, prepare yourselves for The Shadow Over Hinterkaifeck: Part One! Music and Editing by Gage HurleyCheck out VaporVerse: https://www.youtube.com/@vaporversemusic++++Check out our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/creepstreetpodcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/creepstreetpodcastYouTube: https://youtube.com/@creepstreetpodcast5062?feature=sharedTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@UCktQFJN97aI-lE4Ef4hsL6Q#TrueCrime #UnsolvedMystery #UnsolvedCrime #ColdCase #CrimeDocumentary #TrueCrimeCommunity #CrimePodcast #MysteryPodcast #UnsolvedPodcast #Hinterkaifeck #HinterkaifeckMurders #HinterkaifeckCase #BavarianMurders #UnsolvedGermany #GermanTrueCrime #HistoricMurders #1920sCrime #CreepyHistory #DarkHistory #HauntedHistory #MacabreMystery #MurderMystery #CrimeAndHorror #SinisterHistory #Creepypodcast #PodcastRecommendations #TrueCrimeAddict #CrimeJunkie #CrimeTok #SpookySeason #ForensicFiles #DarkSecrets #StayCreepy #CreepStreetPodcast
