Forest are scouting a Palmeiras midfielder again who has a £85m release clause! Win a Forest Team Signed Shirt! Only 99p!: https://footballprizes.co.uk/product/forest-bundle/ Join Wolfie on Forest Fan TV for a massive transfer update as Nottingham Forest send scouts to the Club World Cup to watch Palmeiras midfielder Richard Rios! The Colombian star, who impressed Forest back in January, has continued to shine, drawing interest from Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur as well. With a reported £85m release clause, Wolfie dissects whether this ambitious move is feasible for the Reds, who are looking to bolster their midfield for the Europa Conference League, and explores how Rios' physicality and technical brilliance could fit into Nuno Espírito Santo's system. The stakes are high with Rios, described as a ‘freak athlete' by scouts, but the £85m price tag poses a significant challenge, especially with Premier League rivals circling. Forest's renewed interest follows their seventh-place finish and European qualification, signaling big ambitions under Evangelos Marinakis. Wolfie breaks down the financial implications and whether negotiation below the release clause is more realistic. Could he be the midfield maestro to elevate Forest's game? There's more transfer buzz as reports suggest Forest are also eyeing Lyon winger Malick Fofana, adding to their attacking options. The 20-year-old Belgian, linked with Chelsea and Liverpool, has caught the Reds' eye with his 16 goal involvements this season, though competition is fierce. Wolfie discusses how Fofana could complement the squad alongside potential moves like Wissa or Vlahović, and what this dual pursuit means for Forest's summer strategy. Drop your thoughts in the comments—can Forest land Rios or Fofana, and would they be good fits? #Palmeiras #premierleague Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Als ons land een Europese titel verdedigt, vraagt dat om een speciale aflevering van Sporza Daily. Twee jaar geleden kroonden de Belgian Cats zich voor het eerst tot basketbalkampioen van Europa. Deze maand proberen ze dat kunstje nog eens over te doen. En dus sluiten sterspeelsters Emma Meesseman en Julie Vanloo aan voor een voorbeschouwing op dat EK. De ene droomt luidop opnieuw van goud, de andere doet terwijl haar oren toe. Ontdek vooral zelf wie van de twee wat doet.

It's Thursday, June 12th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Adam McManus Escalating persecution of Christians in Africa International Christian Concern released a new report on the escalating persecution of Christians in Africa.  Targeted attacks are increasing in countries with large Christian populations like Nigeria, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Kenya.  The report documented attacks that have killed hundreds of Christians in Africa this year. These attacks not only involve brutal killings, but also abductions and displacement. They are often perpetrated by Islamic militant groups.  Please pray for our persecuted brothers and sisters in Christ in Africa.  Conservatives arrested for protesting transgenderism Belgian police arrested two conservative activists last Thursday in Brussels, Belgium for protesting transgenderism. Lois Miller, a Senior Legal Communications Officer with Alliance Defending Freedom International, was holding a sign that read: “Children are never born in the wrong body.” And Canadian child protection advocate Chris Elston was holding a sign that read: “Children cannot consent to puberty blockers.”  The two activists called the police after facing aggressive harassment from bystanders. However, the police decided to arrest Miller and Elston! Listen to comments from Miller. MILLER: “They saw that a mob was formed. They saw that we were in the minority, that we were the ones that were being attacked. And instead of standing up for our rights to have those conversations about really important topics to Belgians everywhere, instead they took us away and they let the mob go free.” Proverbs 17:15 says, “He who justifies the wicked, and he who condemns the just, both of them alike are an abomination to the LORD.” Progress in U.S.-Chinese trade talks U.S. President Donald Trump announced a preliminary trade deal with China yesterday. Trump said China will provide rare earth minerals and magnets to America and that the U.S. would restart Chinese student visas.  U.S. tariffs on imports from China stand at 55 percent, while Chinese tariffs on imports from the U.S. stand at 10 percent. Total tariffs between the two countries reached 245 percent before trade talks began. Congress might repeal pro-abortion Freedom of Access to Clinics Entrances Act The U.S. House Judiciary Committee advanced a bill this week to repeal the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act also known as the FACE Act. The Biden administration used the act to target peaceful, pro-life activists. Between 1994 and 2024, 97 percent of FACE Act prosecutions were against pro-lifers.  Republican Rep. Chip Roy of Texas said, “With a Republican-led Congress and President Trump's support, we can repeal this law and protect free speech for all.” Clarification on religious groups story from yesterday We apologize for any confusion from our story yesterday about the growth of religious groups around the world. To clarify, the total number of Christians did increase from 2.1 billion to 2.3 billion between 2010 and 2020. However, as a percentage of the world's population, Christianity actually decreased from 30.6 percent to 28.8 percent over the same time period. You see, even though the number of Christians grew over that decade, it did not grow fast enough to keep up with global population growth, especially the fertility rate of Muslims, and thus Christians decreased as a percentage of the world's population. Religious instruction under public school umbrella Public school students in Iowa can now take courses in religious instruction. Iowan Republican Governor Kim Reynolds signed the bill into law last Friday. The measure allows parents to send their children to religious instruction provided by a private group during the school day. Greg Chafuen, senior counsel at Alliance Defending Freedom, said, “Parents have the right and responsibility to guide the upbringing and education of their children. The government should not stop families from raising their children in their family's faith.” Southern Baptists call for overturn of Obergefell homosexual marriage ruling The Southern Baptist Convention adopted multiple resolutions this week on the topics of marriage, sexuality, and human life. One resolution called for the overturning of the U.S. Supreme Court's Obergefell v. Hodges ruling which legalized faux homosexual marriage. Another resolution called for Congress and state legislatures to ban chemical abortion drugs. And a third resolution called for the banning of pornographic content.  Representatives to the Southern Baptist Convention urged, “all Southern Baptists to advocate in the public square for laws and policies that reflect the moral order revealed in Scripture and nature, and to bear witness to the Gospel of Jesus Christ, which alone restores broken lives, redeems sin, and brings eternal hope.” Psalm 119:46 says, “I will speak of Your testimonies also before kings, and will not be ashamed.” Worldview listeners in England, Canada and Texas share their hearts I invited Worldview listeners to share what they enjoyed about the newscast in 2-6 sentences. You can share your thoughts -- along with your  full name, city and state -- and send it to adam@theworldview.com Dan from Gloucestershire, England wrote, “Hi Adam. I love The Worldview for the information you share and how you relate a couple of your stories to the Bible with specific verses. Keep up the good work.” Priscilla Lipp in Calgary, Alberta, Canada wrote, “I enjoy getting a snippet of world news from a Christian perspective. Refreshing, with reports I won't hear on Canadian mainstream media. My husband, several grown children, and a neighboring couple have also signed up.” And Patricia Herbst – on behalf of Luis, Tricia, Natalie, Nichole, and Luciano -- in Kyle, Texas wrote, “I want to thank you for the incredible blessing your ministry has been to our family. “Through your curriculum, app, and daily broadcasts, we've been consistently enriched with wisdom, truth, and discipleship. My husband, children, and I are growing in faith because of your efforts. You are truly a gift from God, and we're so grateful for your faithfulness.” 7 Worldview listeners gave $815 to fund our annual budget And finally, toward our midpoint goal of $61,750 to fund half of The Worldview newscast's annual budget by this Friday, June 13th, 7 listeners stepped up to the plate. Our thanks to Tim in Woodland, California who gave $25 and Julie in Victoria, Texas who gave $40. We appreciate Kitty in Tulare, California, Linda in Tampa, Florida, and Daniel in Evansville, Indiana – each of whom gave $50. And we're grateful to God for Ryan in Brighton, Colorado who gave $100, Steven in Rest, South Carolina who gave $200, and Alex in Greenwood, Indiana who pledged $25/month for 12 months for a gift of $300. Those 7 Worldview listeners gave a total of $815.  Ready for our new grand total? Drum roll please. (Drum roll sound effect) $24,565.20 (People clapping sound effect) That means we still need to raise $37,134.80 by midnight on Friday, June 13th to hit the half-way mark, to stay on the air, and fund our 6-member Worldview newscast team for another fiscal year. Remember If you are one of 8 final people who give a one-time gift of $1,000, Scooter in Naples, Florida will match you with a corresponding $1,000 gift. If that happens on Thursday, we will have raised $16,000. In order to raise the remaining amount, I need to find 17 Worldview listeners who will pledge $50/month for 12 months for a gift of $600. And another 32 listeners to pledge $25/month for 12 months for a gift of $300. Has God placed it on your heart to be one of the Christian patriots to fund this unparalleled newscast which affirms pre-born babies, God's divine design for our sexuality, and often equips you with practical ways you can take a stand for righteousness in an evil culture?

Carl Roberts, Iwan Roberts and Sam Vokes reflect on a wild night in Brussels that led to Craig Bellamy's first defeat as Wales coach. Despite battling back from 3-0 down with goals from Harry Wilson, Sorba Thomas and Brennan Johnson, Wales ultimately left the Belgian capital empty handed. Was it a missed opportunity to take points off the group favourites, or was Bellamy right to keep pushing for a win?And with no end in sight to Cardiff City's managerial hunt, how much of an impact will the continuing uncertainty have on their pre-seasons plans?

The Classified Powershift Hub, with its internal gearing that makes a 1x chainring work like a 2x, has always been a point of curiosity around the Lab. However, without a full groupset to give the shifting a proper home, there has always been hesitation. That is, until Logan got his hands on the brand new collaboration between the Belgian company and the brake specialists at TRP for a full review at Cycling Weekly. From that testing, it was clear we needed to delve into it here. In this episode, Logan ceded the hosting chair to Stephen Fitzgerald, our Intern/CEO, and we brought Drew Van Kampen, our resident Always Trying New Things Guy, to pepper Logan with questions around the new groupset and explore a few tangents along the way.

No foreigner can have had such an impact on Prague in the modern era as Serge Borenstein. Indeed in three and a half decades, the Belgian-born developer has been behind new constructions totalling a remarkable half a million square metres in and around the capital. His most notable projects have been in Karlín, a district he has almost single-handedly transformed with a series of gleaming office buildings. And it was at Borenstein's offices there that we spoke recently.

The Belgian composer César Franck – unfairly associated with kitsch and sentimentality by certain cultural sophisticates – wrote some of the most spiritually inspiring music of the late 19th century. In this episode of Holy Smoke, Damian Thompson talks to the British-Israeli pianist Ariel Lanyi, who has just recorded Franck's late masterpiece Prélude, Aria et Final on the Linn label. Ariel discusses the influence of Catholicism and the anti-Catholic Richard Wagner on the devout Franck, who was organist of a church in Paris for 30 years – but reserved his most profound thoughts for ostensibly secular works. Produced by Patrick Gibbons and Damian Thompson. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week has been all about Duck Foot Brewing's 10 anniversary on Satruday but it's also been about their breweries diversity. One of the things that head brewer Matt excells in making true to form fresh Belgian style beer in San Diego. His take on a Belgian double shows off why this is such a popular style of beer across the pond.

On the latest episode of The Lisa Burke Show, four remarkable women – scientists, divers, and educators – join Lisa to share how landlocked Luxembourg is making waves in ocean conservation ahead of the 2025 UN Ocean Conference. My guests are:  Dr. Anna Schleimer:  Marine biologist, President & Co-founder of Odyssea Dr. Lexi Grosbusch: Science Mediator, Luxembourg Science Center Clarissa Ausilio: Scientific Mediator, Luxembourg Science Center Lorieza (Lori) Neuberger-Castillo: Scientist, Scuba diver, Odyssea Committee Member, Founder of Diving Escapades As the world prepares for the UN Ocean Conference 2025 in Nice, we welcome four incredible women who are passionate about advocating for the protection of our oceans and all of the incredible life therein.  Dr. Anna Schleimer, President of Odyssea and a marine biologist has spent years researching wildlife in our oceans, which has taken her from the coral reefs of Guadeloupe to the icy Gulf of St. Lawrence.  “There are still so many unanswered questions about the biggest animals on the planet,” she said. “We're seeing shifts in whale distributions due to warming waters. Even critically endangered species like the North Atlantic right whales are suddenly appearing in new areas, and facing new threats.” Dr. Lexi Grosbusch, a science communicator at the Luxembourg Science Center, shared how her journey began on Belgian beaches and was catalysed by a formative marine biology trip to the Seychelles led by Dr. Robert Hofrichter. “That excursion changed everything for me,” she explained. “Diving opened my eyes to a world we're all connected to, but often forget.” Clarissa Ausilio, Lexi's colleague and co-creator of Luxembourg Ocean Days, described how their event grew out of a shared passion.  “We wanted to do something fun and meaningful,” she said. “Ocean science isn't just for coastal nations. Luxembourg had hundreds of students eager to learn last year and we're expanding the programme this June.” Lorieza (Lori) Neuberger-Castillo brought a deeply personal connection. Raised in a Philippine fishing village where the sea was her playground, trained as a scientist in Australia, where the Great Barrier Reef was on her doorstep, and now a scientist and scuba diver in Luxembourg, she founded Diving Escapades to promote sustainable travel.  “Scuba diving changed the way I saw everything—its beauty and its fragility.” Despite being landlocked, Luxembourg is part of this story. As Anna reminded us, “Even our rivers flow to the sea. What we do here matters.” Luxembourg Ocean Days 2025 (June 11–15) promises interactive school workshops, public exhibits, and family activities—all underpinned by science and hope, taking place at the Luxembourg Science Center As Anna said, “The ocean has already bought us time. Now it's our turn to act.” https://www.odyssea.lu/en/ https://divingescapades.com/ocean-conservation/ https://www.science-center.lu/en/ocean-days-2nd-edition-june-2025 https://www.linkedin.com/in/lorieza/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/clarissa-ausilio-032045276/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/anna-schleimer-63224876/

Before he took the leap and started his own, BreWskey (https://www.brewskey.ca) cofounder Derrick Robertson was a process engineer who helped design breweries. That background was invaluable when building out a brewhouse and cellar in a building that's a historic landmark in Vieux-Montréal. With multiple spaces and sprawling patios, BreWskey is popular among travelers who drink plenty of pale lager in warmer months—with many who also appreciate BreWskey's creative and contemporary approach to hazy IPA. Robertson has an unquenchable thirst for experimentation, treating each batch on their two- and 10-barrel systems as an opportunity to tweak variables, test ingredients, and dial in processes. He's not afraid to brew beer with a point of view informed by his own tastes—witbier without phenolic Belgian yeast, for example—and he's always up for experiments, such as pushing 34/70 to see just how much heat it can endure. When it comes to hazy IPA, however, he can't bear the astringent burn that certain hops exacerbate, so he's dialed in processes to turn beers at brewpub speed with robust body and just enough haze—because, as he says, there is such a thing as too much haze. In this episode, Robertson discusses: balancing brewpub and taproom beer menus with an on-the-fly creative process adjusting the beer program week to week, based on tourism trends brewing white beer with London Ale III while replacing certain yeast-driven flavors with targeted ingredient additions using New Zealand hops strategically for light color without the burn the fungibility of many hazy IPA grain bills selecting hop varieties, such as Rakau, that improve the expression of others why Riwaka is like smoked malt avoiding “Galaxy paste” when brewing with the Australian hop accepting inefficient extraction techniques when using certain hops, to avoid picking up off-flavors dialing in his hop palette to eight to 10 hops, while expanding the number of lots of each dry-hop bench-testing for lot selection, to understand how the rub connects to the actual flavors and aromas in finished beer And more.

An investigation by South Korea's Truth and Reconciliation Commission wrapped up on May 26 and its findings are damning. The body was set up in 2022 following a petition signed by hundreds of adoptees of South Korean origin from around the world, denouncing the illegal circumstances of their adoption. While the final report is still pending, the commission's interim findings make for difficult reading: they reveal serious human rights violations, including fraudulent registration of orphans, falsified identities and inadequate oversight of adoptive parents.

All Bones Considered: Laurel Hill Stories #075 In the late 19th and early 20th century, more than 450 American heiresses traded their fortunes for a European title; they were called "dollar princesses." Elizabeth Shindler Stetson was the hatmaker's third wife who married into a Portuguese title. Roberto Carles Eskens claimed Belgian nobility as Marquis d'Eskens de Frenoys; or was he a German valet with a good story and a vivid imagination? James Ivan Michael von Suttka has "Baron" on his headstone and "Olympic medalist" in his obituary; neither was true. Clarence Wiener was a peripatetic military gadfly who claimed innumerable medals and honors for himself; he was especially upset when his wealthy widowed mother married Baron von Graetner. Wiener was in a category of story tellers as enthralling as the Baron von Munchausen. Princess Olga Demidoff Troubetzskoy Stoever was from a royal Russian family and married into another. She was married to Philadelphia archeologist Stoever and her name is carved on his stone. Fate had other plans for the princess.

A LINEAGE OF THE REAL AND THE AUTHENTIC. Luc Tuymans is a Belgian visual artist, many of whose paintings explore people's relationship with history and confront their ability to ignore it. World War II and the horrors of the Holocaust is a recurring theme in his many faceted work. Tuymans is a key figure of the generation of European figurative painters who gained renown at a time when many believed the medium had lost its relevance due to the new digital age. “I want the feeling of doing something special” “For young artists now, it is very strenuous and very difficult” “There's a big difference between a drawn line and a painted line”

From launching pistons through the house to nearly blowing up the yard with a corn-firing spud gun, this episode with Scott “Risky" Andriske is absolute bedlam in the best way. The Logan tow truck legend shares wild yarns from the road basher days—banging $400 bombs, flipping cars at parties, and sending moped races through the workshop. But it's not all wreckage—Scott's also a serious racer, taking on 25-hour enduros in Europe and flying the Aussie flag at Spa and Donington. One minute it's forklifts through windscreens, the next it's going wheel-to-wheel in Belgian rain. This episode is full throttle.#propertrueyarn Hosted on Acast.

At the start of 2024, 55 year old ultrarunner Hilde Dosogne set out to achieve the world record of being the first woman to complete a marathon distance run every single day of the year. On December 31st of last year, she clocked her 366th 26.2 mile run (it was a leap year, which means she had one extra day to run) and her record was verified by Guinness in March. And we had questions, mostly how? How did she stay healthy? (Spoiler, she didn't, but kept going.) Is she managing menopause symptoms? (Yep.) What does she want others to take from her feat? (The power of the mind and so much more.) This week we share our conversation about her journey to set that Guinness World Record.Hilde Dosogne is a Belgian ultrarunner who started running at 41 and found her stride as a world-class endurance athlete quickly thereafter. Her career highlights include 100km Race Belgian Champion in 2023; 4th place in Ultrabalaton, a 210km race around Lake Balaton in Hungary; finishing Spartathlon in 2022 and 2023, and Marathon Des Sables, a 250km stage race in the Moroccan desert in 2021. She is also a mother of four and a bio-engineer. In 2024, she set a Guinness World Record by running 366 consecutive marathons in support of breast cancer research. Hilde is dedicated to pushing the limits of human endurance and proving what we're capable of when we set our mind to it.

The Belgian composer César Franck – unfairly associated with kitsch and sentimentality by certain cultural sophisticates – wrote some of the most spiritually inspiring music of the late 19th century.  In this episode of Holy Smoke, Damian Thompson talks to the British-Israeli pianist Ariel Lanyi, who has just recorded Franck's late masterpiece Prélude, Aria et Final on the Linn label. Ariel discusses the influence of Catholicism and the anti-Catholic Richard Wagner on the devout Franck, who was organist of a church in Paris for 30 years – but reserved his most profound thoughts for ostensibly secular works.  Produced by Patrick Gibbons and Damian Thompson.

Why This Episode Is a Must-Listen In an era where philanthropy is rapidly evolving—spanning from billion-dollar foundations to viral crowdfunding and crypto donations—how can we ensure our giving actually makes a difference? This episode of Inspired Money brings together an expert panel of changemakers to reveal how generosity can be smarter, more inclusive, and more impactful. Whether you're a business leader aligning profit with purpose, a non-profit professional seeking fresh strategies, or someone passionate about making a difference, this discussion spotlights actionable ways to maximize your impact. Meet the Expert Panelists Jacob Harold is a social change strategist and author of The Toolbox: Strategies for Crafting Social Impact. He is the former President & CEO of GuideStar, co-founder of Candid and Project Starling, a Planetary Fellow at the Berggruen Institute, and Senior Advisor at Rewiring America, with a career spanning philanthropy, nonprofit innovation, and climate advocacy. www.craftingimpact.org Jamie Minden is the Executive Director at Zero Hour, a youth-led climate justice organization mobilizing communities to take action against the climate crisis. A seasoned organizer since age 13, she has led efforts with Sunrise Movement Silicon Valley, Fridays For Future D.C., and the Monterey Bay Aquarium, bringing powerful grassroots strategy and storytelling shaped by her firsthand experience with California's climate disasters. https://thisiszerohour.org Bruno Fierens is a fifth-generation member of a wealthy Belgian family and the first Belgian member of Millionaires for Humanity, an organization advocating for fairer taxation and a more just global system. Reflecting on issues like sustainability, the fight against poverty, his privileged position in society and his experiences with philanthropy, kept leading him to the same conclusion: “if someone like me is really serious about changing things for the better, fairer taxation is the core issue to act on”. He is a media trainer and former spokesperson based in Brussels and holds master's degrees in political science and communication. www.brunofierensmediatraining.be https://millionairesforhumanity.org Key Highlights 1. Philanthropy: More Than Writing Checks Jacob Harold emphasizes that strategic philanthropy requires more than reacting to symptoms; it's about “thinking structures, long-term impact, and tapping into a toolbox of solutions—from data to community organizing to storytelling.” He challenges us to ask: Are we using all the tools available, and are we learning as we give? 2. Tackling Systemic Issues Over Band-Aid Solutions Bruno Fierens shares his journey—including tangible success and frustration—supporting homeless initiatives in Brussels. His perspective: “Philanthropy is amazing and needed, but it's almost always going to work on symptoms—not enough on structural issues.” Bruno argues for systemic approaches like fair taxation alongside charitable giving. 3. Youth-Driven Action for Climate Solutions Jamie Minden highlights how today's young leaders, born into the climate crisis, are pushing philanthropy toward supporting community-driven and policy-level change. She shares, “Investing in grassroots organizations addressing policy and social change right now is vital if we want to turn the tide on climate.” 4. The Power—and Perils—of Modern Giving Platforms Panelists discuss the transformative role of technology: from social media amplifying grassroots movements to the promise (and pitfalls) of AI and blockchain in making data-driven giving decisions. Caution is raised to prioritize ethical philanthropy that elevates community needs over donor preferences, to avoid what's described as “philanthropic colonialism.” Call-to-Action

Lance, George, and Johan break down the 2025 edition of Liège–Bastogne–Liège, which saw Tadej Pogačar romp to an effortless victory over the doomed chase group of Giulio Ciccone and Ben Healy, taking his third win in the last five editions and cementing his status as the sport's most dominant racer in both one-day events and stage races. The trio discusses how Pogačar's UAE team set up his searing race-winning attack on the Côte de La Redoute, why it is so hard for anyone to even challenge him on these difficult courses, and where the Pogačar/Evenepoel rivalry stands after a truly disappointing outing from the young Belgian.
