Decimo di diciassette figli, Benjamin Franklin è un "self made man" ed è un uomo dalla curiosità inesauribile. Nel 1752 compie l'esperimento più pericoloso: fa volare un aquilone durante un temporale e dimostra che i fulmini sono elettricità. Nel 1776 è tra i padri fondatori degli Stati Uniti. Nel 1783 l'Accademia delle Scienze di Torino lo elegge tra i suoi primi soci stranieri, definendolo "il più grande filosofo del secolo".Franklin ama l'Italia, corrisponde con gli studiosi della penisola italiana in italiano e scambia idee sull'elettricità. Ecco la storia dell'uomo che ha strappato il fulmine al cielo e lo scettro ai tiranni.NOTA: il brano eseguito con la glass-armonica è l'Adagio in Do Minore K.617a di Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, registrato dal vivo al Conservatorio di Ginevra il 28/1/2022.

Sons Of Liberty Radio with Bradlee Dean Bradlee Dean's "MY WAR" - Part 4 The Battle for Truth: Law, Liberty, and the Moral Compass of a Generation MY WAR: The Battle for a Generation Bradlee Dean | Sons of Liberty Radio - Part 4 Analysis #SocialCommentary The Post-1962 Statistical Shift +553% Unwed Births (Ages 10-14) +794% Violent Crime Increase -80pts SAT Score Decline 32,000 Christian Schools (1984) Core Argument: Choice vs. Sickness •The "Sickness" Myth: Dean argues society labels bad choices (addiction, obesity, crime) as "sickness" to absolve individuals of responsibility. •The Role of Law: The Ten Commandments are described as a "light" that exposes guilt; removing them dims moral perception. •Media Critique: Accuses state-run media of "bait and switch" tactics and prioritizing agendas over truth. Historical Perspectives "Wherever law ends, tyranny begins." — John Locke "Morality cannot be maintained without religion." — George Washington Key Parables The Locked Door: Houdini failed to escape a door that was never locked; the prison was only in his mind. The Donkey: Used the dirt meant to bury him as steppingstones to climb out of the well. The Cookie Tin: A man judged a stranger for "stealing" his cookies, only to realize he was eating hers. #CONSTITUTION #EDUCATION #RESPONSIBILITY Reading Time: ~12 min This document summarizes the fourth part of Bradley Dean's "MY WAR" series, focusing on his mission to challenge the "sickness" narrative in American culture. Through high school assemblies and historical analysis, Dean argues for a return to personal responsibility and biblical foundations to combat rising social decay. Detailed Points of Summary The Mission to the Youth: Assemblies and Moral Absolutes Bradley Dean reflects on his extensive work across 331 high schools in 22 states, driven by a conviction that public school systems often fail to teach the truth. During his assemblies, such as those in Arkansas and Minnesota, he challenges students to reconsider their perspectives on love, lust, and abstinence. He emphasizes the "Law of Love"—doing unto others as you would have them do unto you—as a practical guide for relationships. Dean argues against the cultural myth that students do not want to hear about abstinence, citing that a vast majority actually desire moral absolutes. He believes that the fight for this generation is a "war" worth fighting, aiming to provide the guidance many students lack due to broken homes or systemic insecurity. The "Sickness" vs. "Choice" Framework A core theme of the presentation is the distinction between involuntary disease and voluntary actions. Sickness Involuntary, diseased state, no responsibility. Choice Voluntary selection requires accountability. The Deception of "Sickness" and the Role of Law Dean uses several analogies, including an obese man on a talk show and a speeding driver, to argue that society has replaced "sin" and "violation" with the label of "sickness" to absolve individuals of responsibility. He posits that the Law (specifically the Ten Commandments) serves as a mirror to show individuals their violations, much like turning up a dimmer switch in a bathroom reveals one's true physical state. By removing these moral markers, Dean argues, society has "dimmed the light," making it impossible for individuals to perceive their own guilt or the need for change. He asserts that while the law condemns the guilty, it is a positive force for those who love liberty, as it leads them toward repentance and grace. Historical Revisionism and the Faith of the Founders The narrative challenges the modern labeling of Founding Fathers like George Washington and Benjamin Franklin as "deists" or "atheists." Dean provides historical accounts of Washington's belief in "providential agency," including his miraculous survival during the French and Indian War where he emerged unscathed despite having four bullet holes in his jacket. Similarly, he highlights that many signers of the Declaration of Independence held Bible degrees. He contrasts these historical realities with modern media's "bait and switch" tactics, which he claims are designed to stir controversy rather than report the truth. He also references figures like MLK Jr. and Eric Liddell to show how men of faith are often mislabeled by their contemporaries. Post-1962 Societal Shift

A dive bar in Philly just raised the age limit to 25 because college kids showed up with fake IDs so advanced they passed scanners… including one genius who used Benjamin Franklin as his photo and listed his address as the Liberty Bell. This is why we can't have nice things.On today's daily comedy show chaos, the crew relives their own fake ID disasters (Sri Lankan licenses included), breaks down why Miley Cyrus is the early favorite for the next Super Bowl halftime show in LA, and debates whether Jelly Roll, Taylor Swift, or Post Malone would absolutely break the internet.Then things get serious-ish as a new “forensic report” tries to reopen the Kurt Cobain case with fresh conspiracy fuel.

A dive bar in Philly just raised its age limit to 25 after college kids rolled in with fake IDs so advanced they passed scanners… including one absolute legend who used Benjamin Franklin as his photo and listed his address as the Liberty Bell. This is why we can't have nice things. On today's funny show, the Rizz and the gang relive their own fake ID disasters (yes, Sri Lankan licenses were involved), and debate whether that kid is a criminal mastermind or the future mayor of Philadelphia.Then we shift into full-blown pop culture chaos: Miley Cyrus is already an early favorite for the next Super Bowl halftime show in LA, but would Jelly Roll, Taylor Swift, or Post Malone completely break the internet? We argue. Loudly. As usual.And because this daily comedy chaos refuses to stay in one lane, we also break down:A new “forensic report” trying to reopen the Kurt Cobain case (TikTok detectives… please sit down)Gene Simmons vs. hip-hop in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame (again

Joey’s 9-year-old put some arcade tokens inside the plastic part of his suitcase and asked Joey to get them out. Joey ended up having to cut a hole in the bottom to get them. The airspace around the El Paso airport was shut down abruptly yesterday. The order said it would be closed for 10 days. Just hours later, it reopened. There was miscommunication between the FAA, the city of El Paso, and the federal government. Hot Tea: James Van Der Beek, the main actor from Dawson’s Creek, lost his battle with cancer and passed away yesterday. The girlfriend of the Olympian who admitted to cheating on her on live TV has spoken out. She did not appreciate being put in the position she is now in and isn't sure if she can forgive him. A bar is raising its age restrictions from 21 to 25 due to so many people using fake IDs. The final straw was someone trying to use a fake ID with a photo of Benjamin Franklin on it. Nancy and her family are going on a cruise for spring break! She told her son that he could bring a friend with them. Now she is wondering if she needs to pay for the friend’s trip or if the kid’s parents should do it. We got more information on the kid who swam 4 hours to get help for his family that was stranded on kayaks in the ocean. We listened to the recording of his 911 call. Lucky 7 for tickets to Dollywood Motorcycle Jim returned to turn regular country songs into love songs using his deep voice. Nancy thought she was going to die last night at dinner. She inhaled her drink and got very choked. None of her family tried to help her, and they all thought it was funny. She coughed for a long time afterwards and is okay now.

Fue un golpe estratégico que amplió el dominio español hasta ambas orillas del Misisipi y marcó el corazón de Norteamérica. Esta hazaña, casi borrada de la memoria, se produjo en un momento clave: la guerra global entre España y Gran Bretaña que facilitaría la independencia de las colonias británicas y el nacimiento de Estados Unidos. En este programa abordamos: - La odisea de la expedición española de 1781. - La historia olvidada de la Luisiana española, un territorio que llegaba hasta Canadá. - El hallazgo del acta original de toma de posesión del fuerte San José en archivos de California. - El impacto de la conquista en las negociaciones internacionales, incluso con Benjamin Franklin en París.

None of Your Goddamn BusinessJohn Morgan Salomon said something during our conversation that I haven't stopped thinking about. We were discussing encryption, privacy laws, the usual terrain — and he cut through all of it with five words: "It's none of your goddamn business."Not elegant. Not diplomatic. But exactly right.John has spent 30 years in information security. He's Swiss, lives in Spain, advises governments and startups, and uses his real name on social media despite spending his career thinking about privacy. When someone like that tells you he's worried, you should probably pay attention.The immediate concern is something called "Chat Control" — a proposed EU law that would mandate access to encrypted communications on your phone. It's failed twice. It's now in its third iteration. The Danish Information Commissioner is pushing it. Germany and Poland are resisting. The European Parliament is next.The justification is familiar: child abuse materials, terrorism, drug trafficking. These are the straw man arguments that appear every time someone wants to break encryption. And John walked me through the pattern: tragedy strikes, laws pass in the emotional fervor, and those laws never go away. The Patriot Act. RIPA in the UK. The Clipper Chip the FBI tried to push in the 1990s. Same playbook, different decade.Here's the rhetorical trap: "Do you support terrorism? Do you support child abuse?" There's only one acceptable answer. And once you give it, you've already conceded the frame. You're now arguing about implementation rather than principle.But the principle matters. John calls it the panopticon — the Victorian-era prison design where all cells face inward toward a central guard tower. No walls. Total visibility. The transparent citizen. If you can see what everyone is doing, you can spot evil early. That's the theory.The reality is different. Once you build the infrastructure to monitor everyone, the question becomes: who decides what "evil" looks like? Child pornographers, sure. Terrorists, obviously. But what about LGBTQ individuals in countries where their existence is criminalized? John told me about visiting Chile in 2006, where his gay neighbor could only hold his partner's hand inside a hidden bar. That was a democracy. It was also a place where being yourself was punishable by prison.The targets expand. They always do. Catholics in 1960s America. Migrants today. Anyone who thinks differently from whoever holds power at any given moment. These laws don't just catch criminals — they set precedents. And precedents outlive the people who set them.John made another point that landed hard: the privacy we've already lost probably isn't coming back. Supermarket loyalty cards. Surveillance cameras. Social media profiles. Cookie consent dialogs we click through without reading. That version of privacy is dead. But there's another kind — the kind that prevents all that ambient data from being weaponized against you as an individual. The kind that stops your encrypted messages from becoming evidence of thought crimes. That privacy still exists. For now.Technology won't save us. John was clear about that. Neither will it destroy us. Technology is just an element in a much larger equation that includes human nature, greed, apathy, and the willingness of citizens to actually engage. He sent emails to 40 Spanish members of European Parliament about Chat Control. One responded.That's the real problem. Not the law. Not the technology. The apathy.Republic comes from "res publica" — the thing of the people. Benjamin Franklin supposedly said it best: "A republic, if you can keep it." Keeping it requires attention. Requires understanding what's at stake. Requires saying, when necessary: this is none of your goddamn business.Stay curious. Stay Human. Subscribe to the podcast.

Hi Mamas, Download my free guide: ✨ ChatGPT Prompts Made Simple for Moms ✨ If you've ever felt overwhelmed, stretched thin, or emotionally exhausted… but couldn't point to one specific reason… this episode is for you. In this Monday Mindset episode, we're unpacking a powerful truth inspired by a Benjamin Franklin quote: “Beware of little expenses. A small leak will sink a great ship.” While this quote is often applied to money, it speaks just as loudly to time, energy, and mental load… especially for working moms. Because most overwhelm doesn't come from one big mistake. It comes from dozens of tiny drains we barely notice. In this episode, you'll learn: • Why small, habitual “leaks” create big stress over time • How convenience, obligation, and default decisions quietly drain you • Why awareness… not guilt… is the key to sustainable change • How to stop judging yourself and start noticing patterns • A simple mindset shift that creates immediate breathing room This episode is not about doing more or fixing everything at once. It's about paying attention… without shame… and reclaiming your sense of control.

Nous sommes en 1906, à Vineland dans le New Jersey, une ville que l'on nomme, en ce début du XXe siècle, le « grenier à œufs de l'Amérique ». C'est là, dans un hôpital, que le psychologue Henry Herbert Goddard entame une enquête auprès de jeunes enfants souffrant de retard mental. S'inspirant des tests d'intelligence développés par le Français Alfred Binet, le chercheur s'intéresse particulièrement au cas d'Emma Volverton, une jeune femme de dix-sept ans qui n'a jamais connu son père et a vécu auprès de sa mère avant d'être placée en institution. La mère, domestique, est restée célibataire. En retraçant l'histoire familiale, Goddard pense découvrir l'origine du trouble mental d'Emma : la liaison extra-conjugale d'un aïeul, un siècle plus tôt, et la naissance d'un enfant illégitime. Le psychologue, dès lors, divise la famille en deux lignées, l'une matrimoniale, l'autre composée de célibataires. Les couples mariés auraient engendré une descendance dite « normale » et l'autre branche, perpétuée par la naissance d'enfants dits « illégitimes », une lignée de « simples d'esprit ». Dans le livre qu'il publie en 1912, Goddard distingue les bons d'un côté et les mauvais de l'autre pour figurer la famille qu'il renomme « Kallikak », des mots grecs kalos (bon) et kakos (mauvais). Les célibataires appartiennent donc à la branche pourrie de la nation. Dans la presse, Emma Volverton devient l'incarnation publique de la dégénérescence des lignées de célibataires, à tel point que deux ans plus tard, elle est transférée à la « State Institution for Feeble-Minded Women » (les débiles), connue pour pratiquer la stérilisation des femmes. En 1745 déjà, Benjamin Franklin, l'un des pères fondateurs des Etats-Unis d'Amérique, considérait le ou la célibataire comme « un animal inachevé ».

Jenny Blake, author of "Free Time," reveals how her father—an architect who gives ruthless editorial feedback with his "WKIYB" abbreviation (we know it's your book)—taught her to eliminate unnecessary qualifiers and strengthen her writing. Drawing from her experience creating a paid family newsletter at age 11 with 50 subscribers, Blake has always been entrepreneurial, guided by her mother's lesson: "you should always know how to support yourself." As the breadwinner in her marriage who rejects traditional domestic roles, Blake challenges societal pressures on both men and women around earning and gender expectations. She introduces the "time-to-revenue ratio"—a missing P&L metric that measures how much time it takes to generate revenue—arguing that revenue, ease, and joy aren't mutually exclusive. Blake dismantles Benjamin Franklin's "time is money" myth, explaining that business owners aren't rewarded for butt-in-seat time and that working less actually requires more sophistication through systems, automation, and delegation. Her three-part framework—align, design, assign—helps entrepreneurs optimize what's now, not just navigate what's next. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Rochelle Porto and I dig into the French and Indian War (1754-1763). The name is confusing since the war is actually between the UK and France. The war is a formative part of our pre-Revolutionary period, shaping many of the legendary names in our history. This is where we see the rise of George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, and the roots of the Culper Spy Ring. The French and Indian War also sets the conditions for the protests against taxation and fixes the spirit of revolution in the hearts of the colonialists that ultimately lead us to the Declaration of Independence. This is a deep under-studied part of our history that is formative in all that follows.  #BardsFM_OurSacredHonor #FrenchAndIndianWar #TheRootsOfRevolution Bards Nation Health Store: www.bardsnationhealth.com EnviroKlenz Air Purification, promo code BARDS to save 10%: www.enviroklenz.com EMPShield protect your vehicles and home.

Why do so many goals fade the moment motivation wears off?We live in a culture obsessed with outcomes—targets, habits, milestones—but rarely stop to ask a deeper question: Who do I need to become to sustain this? If you've ever found yourself starting strong and slowly slipping back into old patterns, it's probably not a discipline problem. It's a character gap.In this episode, I explore why character—not motivation—is the real foundation of lasting success. We dive into how traits like resolution, adaptability, and resilience determine whether goals survive when life gets complicated, motivation fades, or progress feels slower than expected.This conversation isn't about setting better goals or pushing harder. It's about shifting your focus from what you're trying to achieve to who you're becoming. Because when character leads, follow-through becomes natural—and success no longer depends on willpower alone.Topics covered in this episode include:Why motivation fades—and why that's not a discipline problemHow character, not goals, is the foundation of long-term achievementThe three stages where goals usually get abandonedHow identity-based change makes progress easier and more sustainableA modern take on Benjamin Franklin's character-first methodIf you're tired of setting goals you can't seem to sustain, this episode offers a different starting point. Stop trying to force outcomes—and start becoming the person who naturally creates them.Resources Mentioned:Get The Book:  https://book.neillwilliams.com/bookLearn More About TEAM90:  https://neillwilliams.com/team90Book A Team Turnaround Call:  https://neillwilliams.com/team-turnaround-callContact Us: support@neillwilliams.com

Lights, camera, Revolution! In this episode of the Revolution 250 Podcast, host Professor Bob Allison sits down with acclaimed filmmaker Kirk Ellis to explore the alchemy that turns ink on a page into images that linger in the national memory.Ellis, the creative force behind the celebrated screen portrayals of Benjamin Franklin (2024) and John Adams (2008), pulls back the curtain on shaping complex founders into compelling, human characters. From distilling intricate historical texts into sharp, resonant dialogue to balancing documentary truth with dramatic momentum, he shares how research, imagination, and restraint combine to build stories worthy of the era they depict.The conversation wanders through script drafts, set designs, and the quiet, crucial choices that make a candlelit room feel alive and a political argument feel urgent. It's a master class in storytelling, where history doesn't just speak, it steps into the frame.Whether you're a filmmaker, a history lover, or a teacher seeking new ways to bring the founding generation to life, this episode offers a front-row seat to the craft of turning the written word into a cinematic legacy.Tell us what you think!

Perhaps there is no greater archetype of the American Dream than Benjamin Franklin in the founding generation.  A printer's apprentice, he rose to become a writer, statesman and scientist.  Along the way, he helped draft and sign the Declaration of Independence and the U. S. Constitution and became our country's first postmaster general and served as an ambassador to France.  As we celebrate our country's 250th birthday this year, we are delighted to have a chance to chat with Dr. Franklin, wonderfully portrayed by David Holland of the American Historical Theatre.

Daniel Harmon is the creator and showrunner of Tuttle Twins TV Show, an award-winning cartoon that teaches kids about principles of freedom and economics. Tuttle Twins is based on the book series that has sold over 5 million copies. In 2020, Tuttle Twins set a record as the #1 crowdfunded kids show in the world! Daniel is a creative entrepreneur and co-founded Harmon Brothers, a renowned video advertising agency that has driven billions of views and over $700 million in sales. Daniel is also a co-founder of VidAngel and Angel Studios. To learn more about Tuttle Twins, go to angel.com/tuttletwins or you can download the Angel app and watch the first few seasons for free! Additional notes from the show: Daniel and Lauren discussed a children's show concept featuring a grandmother with a time-traveling wheelchair who takes her grandchildren back in time to learn lessons from historical figures like Benjamin Franklin and Harriet Tubman. They agreed that the show would need to be entertaining enough to compete with platforms like Netflix and Disney+ while incorporating educational principles that are not currently being taught in public schools. Daniel emphasized that the show's goal is to provide parents with a resource to pass on their values to their children, comparing it to the original Spider-Man's theme of "with great power comes great responsibility." Engaging Children and Parents Through Storytelling Daniel discussed the educational approach of his show, emphasizing its appeal to both children and parents through humor and storytelling. He highlighted the show's focus on critical thinking and its success in engaging parents, with over 80% of episodes watched by parents alongside their children. Daniel also explained the role of the Angel Guild, a group of paying members who act as gatekeepers for new content, ensuring that only episodes deemed to "amplify light" are released. Lauren learned that the first three seasons are available for free on the Angel app, while the fourth season requires Angel Guild membership to access. Crowdfunding and Content Development Challenges Daniel explained the history of crowdfunding for media content, highlighting successful campaigns for TV shows like The Chosen and Tuttle Twins. He noted that BitAngel, a filtering company, eventually merged with the original content development company to avoid potential conflicts between their business models. The discussion touched on the challenges of managing both filtering and original content development under one company. Clean Content Demand and Split Daniel explained that VidAngel was split into two separate companies, with the original content side becoming Angel, where his show now lives. He noted that there is a high demand for clean content, with approximately half of the United States wanting parental controls in the early days of Angel. Lauren observed that this situation illustrated Romans 8:28, highlighting how God can bring beauty from difficult circumstances, and asked Daniel about the demand for clean content compared to what Hollywood produces, to which Daniel confirmed the demand is high, particularly among values-based audiences. Uplifting Content for Universal Appeal Daniel discussed Angel's mission to create content that amplifies light and uplifts audiences, emphasizing stories with good morals, ethics, and values, similar to Disney's historical approach. He highlighted that such content appeals to a broad audience beyond religious or Christian viewers.

Larry Ostola speaks with Madelaine Drohan about her book He Did Not Conquer. Throughout his long and illustrious career, Benjamin Franklin nursed a not-so-secret desire to annex Canada and make it American. When he was not busy conducting scientific experiments or representing American interests at home and abroad, Benjamin Franklin hatched one plan after another to join Canada to the American colonies and then later to the United States. These were not solely intellectual efforts. He went to Montreal in 1776 to try to turn around the faltering occupation by American forces. As lead American negotiator at the 1782 peace negotiations with Britain in Paris, he held the fate of Canada in his hands. Ill health and other American priorities then forced him to abandon his decades-long campaign to possess Canada. Franklin's elevation to the status of an American icon has pushed this signal failure into the far reaches of collective memory in both Canada and the United States. Yet it shaped the future of North America and relations between the two neighbours over the next two and a half centuries. Madelaine Drohan spent most of her journalistic career as a foreign correspondent, reporting on Europe for the Toronto-based Globe and Mail and then on Canada for the London-based Economist. She is a senior fellow at the Graduate School for Public and International Affairs, University of Ottawa. She lives in Ottawa. If you like our work, please consider supporting it: bit.ly/support_WTY.

In 1770 a weird and amazing machine known as "The Chess Machine," or "The Mechanical Turk," was created by Civil Servant and Engineer Wolfgang von Kempelen. He claimed it could play chess as an automated machine, and indeed it played and defeated many talented players and well-known people, including Napolean and Benjamin Franklin. This device kicked off the type of thinking that influenced the development of the computer, and probably even AI. Unfortunately it was all a hoax...

The heart of innovation is very much at the intersection of creativity, engineering, and human need. As many are focused on creating the future-of-health, it becomes increasingly important to unpack the art of invention itself and understand how this translates into breakthroughs that make their way into everyday life, helping to shape how we see and navigate the world.In this episode we go deep into the creative process and innovation practices of Garrett Brown, a Hall-of-Fame Inventor and the visionary mind behind the Oscar-Winning Steadicam, the Skycam, a sports-broadcasting staple, and more recently, ⁠The Zeen⁠, an upright mobility device designed to restore independence, balance, and confidence for people at risk of falling. Garrett's story spans decades of creative exploration—from redefining cinematography and visual storytelling in iconic films like Rocky and Return of the Jedi, to applying that same inventive mindset to health, wellness, and mobility. With more than 120 patents and a career defined by curiosity, persistence, and human-centered design, Garrett offers a rare perspective on how breakthrough ideas are born—and how they can meaningfully improve lives.Listen in with us as we hear the journey that led to the invention of The Zeen, and the broader mission of ⁠Exokinetics⁠ to advance the future of mobility. We also reflect on what it truly means to innovate for humanity, what aspiring inventors can learn from decades of hands-on problem solving, and why inventing shouldn't feel mysterious—but accessible, intuitive, and even fun.This conversation is a reminder that some of the most impactful innovations start with imagination, craftsmanship, empathy, and a deep understanding of how people move through—and experience—the world.Other topics range from why it's important to balance the promise of AI with its potential risks, to how looking back at history and witnessing the evolution of humanity can help shape the future of innovation, to would it be possible for a legendary inventor like Benjamin Franklin to perceive the world today.For more details visit TechLink Health ⁠on the web⁠.This episode was hosted by ⁠Dr. Sarah Samaan⁠.The episode points to several references with links below:

The story of the United States of America cannot be told without Pennsylvania. Independence Hall. The Declaration of Independence. Philadelphia. The Liberty Bell. Benjamin Franklin. George Washington's Crossing of the Delaware. The Battle of Brandywine. And Valley Forge. Pennsylvania is called the Keystone State because it refers to the central stone in an arch that holds all other stones in place, symbolizing strength and stability. Pennsylvania was the hub of political and economic activity during the colonial period and played a pivotal role in American history. Pennsylvania – it's people, its industries, its thinkers, it's revolutionaries, its influence, it's morals and its resources – serve as the bedrock of these United States. And throughout this year, we are going to be celebrating our place in history as part of the 250th Anniversary of the United States. The semiquincentennial – as it's known – will be celebrated in the original 13 colonies as well as throughout the entire country. But, you know, we're here to talk about Pennsylvania. While so much of our colonial history took place in and around Philadelphia, America 250 PA will be highlighting the incredible contributions of all of Pennsylvania's 67 counties. From Lancasters farmers to Pittsburgh's factory workers. From the fisherman in Erie to the coal miners of Lehigh Valley. I'm a history lover, I don't hide this fact. Give me a book or documentary series about the American Revolution or Civil War and I'm a happy camper. But you don't have to be a history buff to care about this year's historic celebrations.This upcoming celebration serves as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to learn about the founding of this amazing Commonwealth and country. There's going to be concerts, fireworks, educational programs, lecture series, family events, volunteer opportunities and so much more. On this episode, I speak with Matt Darragh.

Start with the home and everything else starts to make sense. That's the heartbeat of this conversation—why children are gifts, why marriage is worth celebrating, and why people matter more than any résumé line. We share a candid look at the cultural script that paints kids as limits and freedom as escape, and we answer with a counter-story of joy, duty, and the long arc of legacy.We move from the poetry of Song of Songs to the power of Matthew's account of feeding the four thousand, drawing out a practical thread: gratitude and obedience turn scarcity into sufficiency. Along the way, we unpack Jesus's warning about the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees, exploring how subtle distortions can swell into dangerous doctrines. Psalm 20 and Proverbs 4 give us a daily rule of life—guard your heart, fix your eyes, speak cleanly, and boast only in the Lord—offering a path through noise, outrage, and distraction.Service and courage come alive in the Medal of Honor story of Willis Winter Bradley Jr., a reminder that real love runs toward danger to protect others. Then we zoom out to a civics lesson with stakes: America was built as a constitutional republic, not a pure democracy. We thread founder quotes and modern unrest to show why ordered liberty protects rights better than unfettered majorities. The throughline is simple: when faith sits at the center, families flourish; when families flourish, communities hold; and when communities hold, a nation stands.If this resonates, share it with a friend, subscribe for more faith-and-history deep dives, and leave a quick review to help others find the show.

Hoy hablaremos de los mitos de la comida italiana; de Benjamin Franklin, el genio práctico que fue impresor, provocador y diplomático-celebridad, capaz de escribir máximas morales y también burlarse de la pomposidad académica; Groenlandia, donde un país sin carreteras entre ciudades vive entre la memoria de sagas y la modernidad de una cultura inuit vibrante; y de las películas de Luis Estrada, quien hace de la política mexicana sátira de gran público, con humor negro, escándalos de estreno y frases que se pegan al habla cotidiana. Todo para preguntarnos: ¿qué tanto de lo que creemos saber es tradición?… y qué tanto es un relato tan bien contado que se volvió verdad.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

DEFINING THE CAUSE AND THE MONARCH'S POWER Colleague Joseph Ellis. Ellis explains that colonists adopted the term "the cause" to describe their diverse opposition to British policy and eventual desire for independence, covering various interest groups under one verbal canopy. He describes George III as a powerful monarch who controlled Parliament through treasury funds, viewing American independence as a domino theory threat to the British Empire. Ellis also notes Benjamin Franklin's failed attempts to preserve a commonwealth relationship before British humiliation pushed him toward independence. NUMBER 11761

What does it take for an actor to memorize a script so deeply that it survives stress, pressure from everyday life, and even intoxication? Sir Anthony Hopkins has an answer so tempting, I had to try it. And it has less to do with “talent” than you might think. According to his epic autobiography, We Did Ok, Kid, not even Anthony Hopkins thinks his ability to remember so many lines has to do with DNA or some special genetic trait. Having memorized a lot of content myself, I completely agree. And in this guide, you’ll learn how Hopkins turns scripts into mental landscapes, why most performers fail because they chase speed, and how you can adopt Hopkins’ obsessive learning rituals for yourself. If they’re not for you, you’ll also discover how to adapt them using the Magnetic Memory Method. This unique learning approach will help you install lines from a script or poetry so deeply the process will soon feel like second nature. Whether you’re preparing for a stage performance, a TEDx talk, or a high-stakes presentation, this exploration of Anthony Hopkins’ approach to learning is the memory training guide you’ve been looking for. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nhjIkGu32CA Anthony Hopkins' Memory Ritual: A Healthy “Obsession” Hopkins' brilliant ability to memorize thousands of lines and perform them under pressure isn’t magic. It's the result of a particular ritual that has made him polymathic in number of areas and skills. In case you weren’t aware, Hopkins is not just an award-winning actor. His skills include directing, painting, performing music and now writing. And it has to be said that the writing in We Did Ok, Kid is outstanding. Now, although Hopkins has had teachers and mentors along the way, much of what he’s learned has been autodidactic. For example, as a kid he regularly read Arthur Mee’s Children’s Encyclopedia. Without anyone telling him to do so, he committed lists of facts from its pages to memory. His approach is a bit different than the method I teach in this list memorization tutorial, but related in terms of a kind of spaced repetition Hopkins worked out for himself. Rote Repetition vs. Creative Repetition When it comes to learning the lines of a movie script or play, Hopkins does use a lot of repetition. But it is absolutely not rote learning. That’s because he doesn’t just read a script or a set of instructions while learning. No, Hopkins attacks the material with a pen and adds special marks that turn each page into a kind of private code. And that’s exactly what I tried to do as you can see on this page I worked on from Shakespeare’s Titus Andronicus: Some people will protest that not only is Hopkins using rote when it comes to memorizing lines from a script, but that his rote reaches obsessive levels. That’s because he goes through the process of reading and marking up his scripts multiple times, sometimes 250 times or more. Having gone through the process myself, even at an admittedly small scale, I can tell you it is absolutely not rote learning. Looking at a page once it has been marked up automatically moves you from rote repetition to active recall. Active recall is present any time you place information on a page where you have to stretch your mind. And that’s what Hopkins’ marks achieve. His process literally transforms each page from a bland field of words into a highly mnemonic landscape. So when the time to perform arrives, he doesn't try to recall. He simply walks the landscape he has laid in his mind. Or as he puts it: “Becoming familiar with a script was like picking up stones from a cobblestone street one at a time, studying them, then replacing each in its proper spot. Only then could I look out over the road and know every inch of it spread out before me.” Why So Many People Fail at Memorizing Scripts Having worked with countless actors over the years, or even just people who have seen my TEDx Talk and want to memorize a speech, I feel confident when I tell you this: The main reason people fail is not because they are trying to copy the memory tips given by other actors. It’s because they have mistaken activity for accomplishment. And they are trying to move too fast. On the one hand, this desire to create momentum is understandable. Speed not only feels like progress. Moving quickly through rote learning can give you doses of what scientists call phasic dopamine (something you can develop a much healthier relationship with through my dopamine-resetting guide for learners). But when it comes to serious learning and performance, speed is vanity. And as I learned from my podcast interview with actor Ashley Strand who memorized the entire Book of Mark, vanity kills depth. There’s another problem too that many people who want to memorize large amounts of content face. The Emptiness of the Long Distance Learner As a child, Hopkins was haunted by self-doubt and failure. His solution? He not only built a mental container he calls his “Tin Brain Box”. He also imitated other great polymaths like Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin. Like many other people with polymathic personality traits, Hopkins keeps a commonplace book and uses it to copy poems by hand. He also carried notebooks when young, and developed a personal note-taking method. More importantly, he learned to switch off his thoughts, a skill I share the science around in my book, The Victorious Mind. I mention my book because when Hopkins advises actors and people learning skills like painting, I know exactly what he means when he said, “Remain empty. Don't think.” Although this suggestion sounds mystical, it's pure performance psychology. The Neuroscience of Learning Without Obstacles You’ve probably had this kind of experience while learning something new. Maybe you’re studying a language or trying to memorize a sales script. Instead of focusing, your mind keeps intervening and asking questions like, “Am I doing this right?” When that happens, you're stuck in the Default Mode Network (DMN), the brain's internal chatter loop. Hopkins' learning technique? It helps silence the Default Mode Network and then activate the Task Positive Network (TPN). You can think of the Task Positive Network as being in what some scientists call a state of “flow.” As Nature puts it in this study, the Default Mode Network is a constant antagonist to that state of flow. But as I know very well, you can switch off the inner narrator with its endless “blah blah blah.” Once done, that leaves you free to become the doer. However, that doesn’t mean you’ll be able to perfectly install new skills or imitate the learning processes of others. My Experiment: Hopkins vs. Magnetic Memory Method I learned this the hard way when I tried Hopkins' method. I spent hours marking up pages. Without an example of what one of his scripts looks like, I had to imagine exactly how he draws circles all over his scripts. But even with the drawings I’ve otherwise had success with on my Zettelkasten and flashcards, I quickly hit a wall. Not because I'm lazy. It’s just because my brain needs a different engine. So I turned back to the same techniques I teach you in the Magnetic Memory Method Masterclass. This is my go-to system for structure, proper mnemonic images, and well-formed Memory Palaces. Once I gave each line a home using the techniques, the lines from Titus Andronicus I wanted to memorize clicked into place. And you can watch me recite those lines during the recent Vitamin X live launch celebration training. Not only did I recite the passage forwards. I demonstrated full Recall Rehearsal and recited them: Forwards Backwards From the middle to the end From the middle to the beginning The even numbered lines The odd numbered lines Memory Palaces: The Shortest Path to Reliable Recall Memory Palaces aren't theoretical. They're ancient. And they remain one of the most effective tools for embedding information into long-term, actionable memory. If you're unfamiliar with the method, here's the short version: You take a familiar physical location, such as your apartment, a childhood school, or a route you know well. Then you assign information to specific points along a path you assign throughout the location. By mentally walking the path, you access the information in order. It's not rote memory. It's spatial, visual, contextual memory. And when used properly, it’s incredibly fast. Here’s a walkthrough video of me using it to memorize some poetry: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STlYIiF9RzI If you would like to learn how to build and use your own Memory Palaces for acting, speeches, or studies, you can explore the Memory Palace technique through my complete guide here. What I Really Learned When Imitating Hopkins’ Memory Ritual After realizing that Hopkins’ memory routine was just not for me, I took a completely different angle. I put the camera on and attempted to document my memorization process for public consumption. But soon, something broke inside me. I couldn’t focus on using the memory techniques I love so much and have covered so extensively in my online mnemonics dictionary. By putting a camera on and starting the clock, something I’ve done before with success when I competed with Dave Farrow, I found myself locked in the Default Mode Network. In other words, I started worrying about how I looked instead of focusing on using the Magnetic Memory Method. For me, real memorization is quiet. Private. And for many of us, it resists observation. When I returned to internal work on my own, no stopwatch, no camera, I shifted back to the ancient art of memory and simply learned the lines. What You Can Learn from Hopkins (Without Imitating Him) Hopkins' genius isn't something to mimic line by line. His method fits his mind and that’s a beautiful thing. But the real lesson is that your mind might need something different. And that’s exactly what he says. Go out and explore and find your own method. What I learned is that memory is not for display. For me, it’s a private practice that leads to increased focus, presence and command over the things I want to say. Once you understand your learning goals, you can adapt any system to your own cognitive strengths. For me, that system is the Magnetic Memory Method, and if you’d like to learn to use Memory Palaces for free, grab this course now: It not only gives you four video lessons and worksheets to help you develop your memory skills. It also helps you enter the state of flow that makes learning so much easier and more fun. So what do you say? I found it refreshing to learn that Hopkins wasn't a particularly gifted child. He felt behind for much of his life. But instead of accepting failure, he built a learning system that ultimately helped him master multiple skills. His memory became the foundation for multiple experiences of development, growth and personal transformation. If you've struggled with memorization, or felt pressure to perform before you're ready, this is your call to take a step back. Build your memory. Explore the many techniques available to you and find the ones that fit your mind. Install them so deeply that learning never feels like work again. Because when you get it right, it’s not work. It’s not play either. It’s simply you. 100% present. Enjoying flow.

Lionel dissects the origins of the Jersey Devil, tracing the legend back to Mother Leeds and a feud with Benjamin Franklin. The conversation shifts to the philosophy of belief, challenging callers on how they distinguish between cryptids like Bigfoot, the "Shadow Man," and religious figures. From the logistics of Noah's Ark to the Cambrian explosion, Lionel debates creationism versus evolution, mocks the "watchmaker" argument, and wonders how you would explain a Bic lighter to a caveman.

What if creativity isn't a metaphor for magic but literally the same thing?Pam Grossman breaks down why the creative process and magical practice use identical mechanisms—and why that's not poetic language, it's actual reality. This conversation goes beyond surface-level inspiration into the suppressed history of why magic was banned (spoiler: it threatened capitalism, not logic).What you'll learn:Why casting a creative circle works identically to casting spellsThe magician's pose: one hand up receiving, one hand down groundingHow magic was suppressed to control populations, not because it was fakePam Grossman is the author of Magic Maker: The Enchanted Path to Creativity and host of The Witch Wave podcast.

“Send Coach John a message”From Positivity Inspired (@inspiringmyday) comes this quote from Benjamin Franklin - “Lost time is never found again.” To me, this is something that goes with a major game plan of mine, becoming more focused! I waste so much time - especially with all the distractions that are out there. I need to connect with those moments when they present themselves to also connect with the best choice on how to use my time in those moments. One thing for sure, today's “crud” going on around us - in the USA and around the world, can't be taking so much of my time up any longer. Way too much more important items to connect with.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

In the latest episode of Tin Foil Hat, Sam Tripoli welcomes Matt Ehret for a condensed but provocative discussion on America's hidden history and its alleged ties to the occult, including Benjamin Franklin's efforts to bring Canada into the early United States. The conversation explores a spider web of secret societies, the role of Freemasonry among the Founding Fathers, and how power networks are said to stretch across centuries. Ehret also draws bold connections between the Jack the Ripper mystery and what he calls the “Kevin Bacon” of conspiracies, linking it all to the greater Israel project.Please check out Matt Ehret's book: "Revenge Of The Mystery Cults"- https://bit.ly/4scPBlOPlease subscribe to the new Tin Foil Hat youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@TinFoilHatYoutubeGrab your copy of the 2nd issue of the Chaos Twins now and join the Army Of Chaos:https://bit.ly/415fDfYCheck out Sam "DoomScrollin with Sam Tripoli and Midnight Mike" Every Tuesday At 4pm pst on Youtube, X Twitter, Rumble and Rokfin!Join the WolfPack at Wise Wolf Gold and Silver and start hedging your financial position by investing in precious metals now!
