LIVE from a Porsche Club of America weekend at Grattan Raceway on June 13, 2026! *Want the INTC gang to come to *your* event and tape a show? Drop a line – INTCPod@gmail.com !*Two weeks ago, Ross and Sam went to a PCA track weekend to coach, tell stories on a podcast, and hang out. This is the stories bit — Saturday night, live from the paddock, a series of definitely plausible tales from our hosts' long careers in motorsport and car journalism. PLUS: Audience questions, tangents, and Sam has candy (for some reason)!*Questions Answered in This Episode: How did Ross—one of the world's top performance coaches and a sports-car champion, learn to drive and coach? — Which car did Sam get into as a journalist where he thought, “This is gonna kill me”? — Why were Ross and NASCAR legend Bill Elliott in the same car at the same time, sideways and backward, collapsing in laughter? — And more! *This show changes format every episode, because squirrel. This format is a new one—we call it “LIVE FROM THE WESTERN-MICHIGAN BUDOKAN."This episode was produced by Sam Smith. ***Special thanks to the PCA's Rally Sport Chapter for the invite and the hospitality, and for eating all those Haribo bags we left behind.As always, thanks to our friends at BFGoodrich for supporting the show! **Who We Are + Spicy Merch:www.ItsNotTheCar.com**Support It's Not the Car:Contribute on Patreon www.patreon.com/notthecar**Topic suggestions, feedback, questions?

For 24 straight hours every June, the world's greatest endurance race pushes drivers, machines, and engineers to their limits at Le Mans. For Michelin, it's more than a race, it's a proving ground for innovation, performance, and one of the most enduring brands in the world.This week, Jim welcomes Omer Waysman, Vice President of B2C Marketing for North America at Michelin. Founded in France in 1889, Michelin has grown into a global company with nearly $30 billion in annual revenue. While best known for its tires, Michelin's business extends far beyond the road, spanning brands including BFGoodrich and Uniroyal, the world-famous Michelin Guide, and innovations in fields ranging from aeronautics and healthcare to advanced materials and construction.Omer's career has taken him from France to South Carolina, where he now leads marketing, brand strategy, and go-to-market execution for Michelin in North America. Before Michelin, he held senior leadership roles at Danone and Microsoft, helping drive digital growth, e-commerce, and transformation initiatives around the world.Tune in for a conversation exploring one of marketing's most interesting challenges: how do you build trust, relevance, and long-term loyalty in a category where consumers only make a purchase every three to five years?See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Why are some drivers fast in everything? What makes a person quick in Miatas but not Mustangs—or vice versa? How do the pros wrap their heads around big jumps in speed, power, and risk?This is show about many things. Precision. Restraint. A Corvette Z06 walloping into the climbing esses at VIR.

Our favorite race cars—the ones that stick out, from all the stuff we've driven.This is an episode about many things. Love. Hate. Jeff's mouse-filled Triumph Spitfire. The 1970s BMW IMSA factory team car that Sam rode all lock-stop-drift-slappy down the Corkscrew at Laguna Seca.It is also an episode about the time they told Ross he was going to die, sideways, on the banking at Daytona. (Spoiler alert: He didn't.)(Spoiler alert part II: His hands were shaking and the car was terrifying, but he went and hung the thing on the pole. Later, he won the race.

This is what: Three races into 2026, the FIA is trying to fix what it broke. Because everyone hates it.(Ross goes on a rant in this one! Ross *never* goes on rants!)Here's a joke: A former IndyCar driver and a former Road & Track editor walk into a bar. When they walk out, they never want to hear the words “megajoule” or “superclipping” again.(Okay, it's not a joke. Gag me with a kilowatt spoon.)F1 changed much for 2026: new car dimensions and weights; new powerplant configurations; updated aero; narrower tires; some team shake-ups and arrivals. And the racing became obnoxious.Over the last three races, that last bit has been all anyone can talk about. Drivers and teams hate the new order as much as anyone. With that in mind, the FIA executed a rare midseason rule revamp—rule updates effective from this weekend's Miami Grand Prix.These updates won't fix the series; too much is baked into how the cars have been designed and engineered. But at this point, we'll take it. ***This episode was produced by Sam Smith.

We call this "Take Your Podshow to Work Day." Three stories of weird days on the racing job—one from each of our hosts.Once, Sam had the chance to drive a 230-mph Le Mans prototype—a factory-owned Porsche 917K!—and he said no. Why? It's complicated!Once, Jeff won the 24 Hours of Daytona in 28 hours. The whole thing was such a big deal that Mario Andretti got kinda feathered up and tweeted out an opinion about it. Why? Also complicated!And! Last but not least, we have Ross, the former IndyCar and sports-car pro driver, and the story of the time he went to Florida to live out a personal, glorious, and happily uncomplicated dream.***IN THIS EP: An air-cooled flat-twelve blows up — A journalist (not Sam) gets sued — Someone's mom saves a race team's day by pulling $1000 from her bra at Daytona — Ross gets all hot and bothered over a shock-dyno graph — and more!***This show changes format weekly, because squirrel.

Ten years ago, INTC's Jeff Braun helped a Japanese carmaker go IMSA racing with a 180-mph diesel prototype. The car was cool. More than 700 lb-ft of torque at 2800 rpm. Gobs of potential.Also: It blew up every five minutes.(An exaggeration, of course. No race car blows up every five minutes, even an underfunded, production-based coal-roller cranking around Daytona. That would be silly.)(It was probably more like ten minutes.)Mazda's diesel Le Mans prototypes of 2014 and 2015 were one of the most admirable, ambitious, and ill-fated efforts in American motorsport. Jeff was on pit wall for the thick of it, helping make those cars faster. Sam is here now, asking questions.This show changes format weekly, because squirrel.

War stories of how race cars break in pro motorsport? Yes!(Spoiler alert: It's not usually fun or profitable.)This podshow has three hosts. One of them, Jeff Braun, has won Sebring, Daytona, and multiple sports-car championships. From Indy to Le Mans and beyond, Jeff has seen race cars fail in strange and funny ways. And when you ask Jeff to dish to goods, he dishes the goods. So we did.This show changes format weekly, because squirrel. We call this format “JEFF TELLS A STORY.”***IN THIS EP: How *do* race cars break? Well, Timmy, when an irresistible force and an immovable object love each other very much, they come together in a special hug! A short while later, the world is gifted a new life, and that life is very often a large and expensive heap of metal and composite smooshed into a delightful new shape. This shape usually resembles the sort of thing your dog might leave on the sidewalk after a particularly large meal. Isn't the miracle of birth exciting?***This episode was produced by Sam Smith.

DAYTONA 2026 RECAP: With special guest—and Jeff Braun co-worker—Andrew Wojteczko, of AWA Racing and IMSA Corvette team 13 Autosport!January 2025: Against towering odds, Andrew, INTC's Jeff, and the rest of the AWA gang win the 24 Hours of Daytona.January '26: The same team hits Daytona again. They do everything right, they feel great about all of it, and then everything goes wrong. Parts break that shouldn't. The car handles all spooky and no one can suss why. There is a fire big enough to land the team on TV. (And not in the fun way, like, with Joy and Whoopi.)Andrew has won Daytona twice. Jeff has won it three times.

If you do nothing else, listen to the beginning of this episode. The first few minutes. Maybe with a large drink in your hand.A tiny town in upstate New York. A dapper man with glasses, a dream, and a Duesenberg he didn't need. One of the greatest—and nuttiest—moments in the history of American racing. And that's how stateside sports-car racing went big time.This show's format rotates weekly, because squirrel. This episode is our monthly deep dive into an epic moment from racing history. In this case, that means the story of the the 1948 Watkins Glen Grand Prix—America's first postwar road race, a homespun miracle fit for Mayberry, and weekend that kicked off a movement that's still going strong today.***IN THIS EP: A Kentucky man (not Sam) rolls a car into a creek — Ross watches PBS and lives to talk about it — An English car with a supercharger and entirely too much wood in its body structure — Briggs MF-ing Cunningham and you better believe it — Four wheels up at 100 mph — and more!This episode was produced by Sam Smith.Thanks, as always, to our friends at BFGoodrich for supporting the show!**Who We Are + Spicy Merch:www.ItsNotTheCar.com**Support It's Not the Car:Contribute on Patreon www.patreon.com/notthecar**Topic suggestions, feedback, questions?

We talk about cars all the time, but we're not out there test driving them very often so we don't really consider ourselves “car reviewers”. Reporting in general has changed significantly over the years, and the latest “review” on the F250 by Dan Neil in the WSJ shows how even car reviews aren't safe from bad taste and political soap boxes. In better car review news, the real car reviews on the new Rivian R2 have started to drop and we all seem to think it's a great step in the right direction EVs as a whole, but we would love to hear your thoughts on it. Dan is more excited for the Scout and Rivian R3, and we both think the new Slate is unfortunately doomed due to increasing costs. Who do you think was the biggest brand loser of 2025? We give our vote to Ford for having more recalls than we didn't think possible and the huge failure of the Lightning, which should have been an easy win. In really good consumer news, the Michelin and BF Goodrich discount is renewed for 2026 and you can save more than ever by buying from our partners at Discount Tire! Considering how warm it has been in the PNW, it's getting close to time to get those new summer tires anyway! The Avants Podcast is brought to you by our friends at STEK USA and Carter Seattle!

In this episode of the Off-Road Racer Podcast, Matt Martelli sits down with Justin Von Metal — racer, builder, and one of the most outspoken minds in modern UTV racing. From his roots in motocross and factory race teams to building championship-winning Pro Stock UTV programs, Justin breaks down what it actually takes to win at the highest level without unlimited budgets. The conversation dives deep into race course design, class structure, affordability, and the realities of racing rough events like the Mint 400, Barstow, Parker, Laughlin, and Vegas to Reno. Justin explains why preparation, testing, and discipline matter more than hype parts, why Pro Stock is one of the most demanding driver classes in off-road, and how racing experience — not checkbooks — separates contenders from casualties. Justin also shares hard-earned insight on suspension development, the transfer of knowledge from motocross to desert racing, working with partners like King Shocks, SuperATV, BFG, and Diode Dynamics, and why simplicity and reliability still win races in an era obsessed with technology. The episode closes with a candid look at the evolution of UTV racing, factory involvement, safety concerns, and where the sport is headed as competition continues to escalate. This is an unfiltered, technical, and brutally honest conversation about what it really takes to finish, compete, and win in modern off-road racing.
On this episode of GetConnected, we're digging into three big questions: How do you stay safe on the road, stretch your money abroad, and trust the tech inside your next car? First, we look at your wallet on the go with June Yuan, Product Lead at Wise. New data from Wise shows ATM fees in some popular destinations have exploded — up over 1,300% in Vietnam and 3,500% in Indonesia — based on nearly 10 million ATM transactions worldwide. June explains what's driving the spike, how exchange rates and per-transaction limits quietly drain your budget, and practical ways Canadians can avoid getting gouged while travelling this holiday season. Brandon Sturgis, Global Product Manager at BFGoodrich, joins us to unpack the latest in tire technology and safety. From winter grip and stopping distances to how modern tire design impacts EVs and SUVs, we'll talk about the science in that rubber keeping you on the road. Finally, we look at the future of crash-free driving with Åsa Haglund, Head of Volvo Cars Global Safety Centre. She shares how Volvo is using AI, advanced sensors, and 50+ years of crash data to engineer a world without collisions — from the Multi-Adaptive Safety Belt that adjusts to each passenger, to occupant sensing systems that help ensure no one is left behind in a hot car. Road safety, smarter money, and AI-driven car tech — it's all coming up on GetConnected.

Send us a textOriginally from Denver, CO, Dylan Wineland is an award-winning cinematographer now residing in Salt Lake City, Utah. In today's episode, we dive into Dylan's journey and unexpected path to becoming a commercial DP (Director of Photography), all of which came to be thanks to dirt bikes. Dylan grew up riding and racing dirt bikes against the likes of Eli Tomac, Jason Anderson, and Justin Bogle. While Dylan didn't have quite the career that the aforementioned did, he was able to race locally in the A class against the likes of future professional Supercross and motocross racers, Derek Anderson and Todd Bannister. We also spend time talking about his steps to becoming a cinematographer, working on season one of The Spectrum Series alongside me, his time interning at Brain Farm, and eventually working for commercial clients such as Ford Motor Co., Toyota USA, BF Goodrich, The Olympics, KN Filters, Polaris, and more. This was a wonderful conversation diving into many more topics and I hope all enjoy!

A while back, his friends at BFG called and asked if he wanted to run this year's One Lap in a new Honda Civic Type R. Ross said yes. His BFG co-driver, Ed Gliss, turned out to be a great guy.

Are the boys both back AND in town?? Who's America's real dad? And what tires are on Barbie's car? We answer these questions and more as we squeeze into the parking spot for Season 1, Episode 10 of Family Matters. Alex Diamond, David Kenny, and John McDaniel heard that the long-running network sitcom Family Matters ends with side character Steve Urkel going to space. And the best way to figure out how that happened - obviously - is to watch the last episode first and make our way backwards through nearly ten years of television.Join our countdown to number one (and our slow descent into madness) in all the places you expect internet people to be:Website: jumpingtheshuttle.spaceEmail: jumpingtheshuttle@gmail.comInstagram: @JumpingTheShuttle / @ThatAlexD / @dak577Twitter: @JumpingShuttle / @ThatAlexD / @dak577TikTok: @JumpingTheShuttle / @ThatAlexD / @dak577Brought to you by Smooth My Balls

Rock crawling isn't just about getting to the top—it's about doing it with precision, relative speed, and control. In this video, we catch up with Rodney from Lasernut Racing to break down the incredible engineering behind their single-seat unlimited class buggy, built for the toughest rock crawling challenges.Use ‘PODCAST75' for $75 off your first HPA course here: https://hpcdmy.co/hpa-tuned-inFrom low weight and tight packaging to innovative techs like portal hubs and rear-steer functionality, this 10mph max speed and 42" BF Goodrich tyre-equipped buggy is a masterclass in off-road engineering. During SEMA, Rodney takes us through the key decisions, such as using a 220hp 2.0L Chevy LNF Ecotec engine for its compact size and power-to-weight ratio and the ingenious placement of the axle-mounted fuel cell for improved safety and balance.Learn how air lockers and diff locks provide precise control, and how hydraulic winches keep the suspension loaded during vertical climbs. Plus, explore the air suspension system that allows the vehicle to adjust ride height by up to 20 inches on the fly.On the electronics side, Rodney explains how the Ecumaster PMU16 and ADU5 Dash streamline power distribution and steering control using Blink Marine CAN-based keypads. With clever innovations like adjustable steering indicators and a ride height potentiometer, this buggy has no shortage of cutting-edge solutions.If you're into off-road motorsport or just love clever engineering, this deep dive into rock-crawling tech is one you won't want to miss.
BF Goodrich created a tire category with the All-Terrain and product manager Brandon Sturgis joins the podcast to explain how tires are developed and how BFG intends to maintain their leadership position with the all-new All-Terrain KO3.

Evening With A Legend is a series of presentations exclusive to Legends of the famous 24 Hours of Le Mans giving us an opportunity to bring a piece of Le Mans to you. By sharing stories and highlights of the big event, you get a chance to become part of the Legend of Le Mans with guests from different eras of over 100 years of racing. In 1978, Jim Busby debut in the Le Mans 24H in a Porsche 935 from Kremer Racing, and finished in 6th position overall. His enduring association with BFGoodrich began with the 1982 Le Mans 24H when his Porsche 924 Carrera GTR won the GT class using BFG's road-specification tires; and they remain his sponsors and tire suppliers during his 1984 return to Le Mans with a Group C2 Lola-Mazda. In subsequent seasons he concentrated on managing the team, and perhaps his finest victory came in the 1989 Daytona 24H when John Andretti, Bob Wollek and Derek Bell shared the win in the Miller High Life Porsche 962. Jim sold his team in 1990, and move on to other projects and racing. Busby himself may not admit it, but he is regarded as one of the worlds best Porsche specialists from the 1970s and 80s. Jim now spends his time in Newport Beach, California with his wife. This Evening With A Legend was hosted by David Spitzer from the ACO USA.

Bienvenidos al episodio 96 del podcast de Infoparquet, donde nos sumergimos en el fascinante mundo de los suelos vinílicos, su evolución y la revolución en materiales sintéticos. Hoy, exploramos cómo estos suelos han llegado a disputarse la corona en el reino de los pavimentos sintéticos. Inventor y Primeros Desarrollos Los primeros pasos en la historia del PVC, el material base de los suelos vinílicos, se remontan al siglo XIX con descubrimientos accidentales que no prosperaron debido a su rigidez. No obstante, la verdadera revolución comenzó en el siglo XX, con avances significativos que permitieron su producción en masa y aplicaciones comerciales, gracias a científicos como Fritz Klatte y Waldo Semon. Este último, trabajando para BFGoodrich, descubrió fórmulas que transformaron el PVC en un material más flexible y duradero, revolucionando múltiples industrias y sentando las bases para su uso en suelos. Comercialización y Expansión La comercialización del vinilo tomó forma en la década de 1930, encontrando aplicaciones iniciales en la fabricación de cables eléctricos debido a su resistencia al agua y aislamiento eléctrico. Durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial, su uso se expandió dramáticamente. Posteriormente, su capacidad para imitar materiales más costosos y su resistencia hicieron del vinilo una opción popular en la industria del suelo, compitiendo directamente con alternativas como el linóleo. Uso Internacional y Estadísticas Desde la década de 1960, el vinilo ha visto un crecimiento exponencial a nivel global, especialmente en mercados como Estados Unidos, Europa, Japón y Corea del Sur. Este material no solo ha conquistado el sector de la construcción, sino que también ha encontrado aplicaciones en la automoción y la medicina, destacándose por su eficiencia en costos y facilidad de mantenimiento. Marcas Pioneras y Sostenibilidad Empresas como Amtico y Mannington Mills en el Reino Unido y Estados Unidos respectivamente, fueron algunas de las primeras en comercializar suelos de vinilo. En las últimas décadas, el enfoque en la sostenibilidad ha llevado al desarrollo de productos de vinilo reciclables, con compañías como Tarkett y Forbo liderando en la producción de suelos más ecológicos. Innovación en Suelos de Vinilo: El caso de Tarkett Tarkett se destaca por su compromiso con la innovación y la sostenibilidad. Desde la introducción de su primer suelo de vinilo en la década de 1950, hasta la implementación de tecnologías sin ftalatos en su producción, Tarkett ha sido un pionero en la industria, mejorando constantemente la calidad y el impacto ambiental de sus productos. V-Line, la marca que revoluciona el mercado español y patrocinador de Infoparquet, y la creciente popularidad de los términos LVT y SPC, demuestran la continua evolución e innovación en el campo de los suelos vinílicos. Nos encantaría conocer tu opinión sobre quién ganará la batalla entre los suelos vinílicos y los laminados, y cómo ves el futuro de los suelos en tu entorno. ¡No olvides seguirnos en redes sociales y suscribirte para más contenido exclusivo de Infoparquet!

In this episode of the Off-Road Racer Podcast, I sit down with 2020 ORMHOF Inductee Bob Bower. Bob has participated in nearly every facet of off-road culture, from pit volunteering to co-driving and driving, managing pit and race teams, and TV color commentary. In nearly all of the things Bob has done, he has contributed massively to the off-road culture; His most well-known accomplishment is the inception of the BFGoodrich Pit Support program, possibly the most successful and widely used pit service in Off-Road History. Bob tells of his starts as a member of a Corvette club, how that led to a job at BFGoodrich, and ultimately, his obsession and contributions in off-road. We also discuss the Off-Road Motorsports Hall of Fame, other ORMHOF inductees and their contributions, and a whole lot more. I'm your host Matt Martelli, and this IS the Off-Road Racer Podcast powered by Monster Energy.

At age 8, Bob Bower read about the Bill Stroppe Lincoln teams that dominated the 1953 Mexican Carrera Panamericana and later learned about the Baja 1000 race to La Paz. It became a fixation with him to be part of it someday. Living the life of a Corvette enthusiast, Bower caught the eye of BFGoodrich at a time when the Brand was in the early stages of marketing performance tires to car clubs. He accepted the offer to go to work for BFG in 1977 and found himself at the Mint 400 as a pit volunteer. The fixation transformed into a deep passion for off-road. From that day forward, he would make a huge impact on the world of off-road racing in a variety of roles. Pit volunteer, chase crew, race team manager, pit manager, program manager, winning co-driver, winning driver, ESPN TV color analyst, and teacher. Bower's goal was to have a positive impact on whatever he was doing. His philosophy of “be alert, listen to what people have to say and always use the truth” served him well. It was 1982 when BFGoodrich put him in the role of Off-Road Program manager. With very thin budget resources available, the challenge was to provide support for the contracted teams and win races. Bower's race strategy was very straightforward… “You start winning rather than finish winning.” Bower's vision was to establish a common direction on the race course and in the pits, and bring all the teams into one big BFG team. “The direction we're heading is very, very clear.” “That is to be the best between the green and checkered flags”. Bower launched the BFGoodrich Pit Support program. To this day the BFGoodrich Pits are arguably the most successful and widely used pit service in Off-Road Desert Racing. The 1985 Baja 1000 ended early for Bob and his teammate Mike Randall in the Class 4 Honcho when they got off course and lost, ending up sunken to the frame in a tidal mud marsh. It took two days for the team to find and retrieve them. Bower swore, and promised his wife Necia, that we would never be lost like that again in Baja. He would make detailed maps of the race course, highways, and chase roads (KM mileage included), along with other information like fuel and food locations. The chase crews knew at any given time they could drive to the correct chase road and how long the drive should take. Teams raced with a higher degree of safety for their chase crews because of those maps. In the early 1990s Bower turned the map making over to BFGoodrich in order to make it available to the masses. By widely distributing the maps, all of the chase crews could support their teams with a higher degree of safety. Bob wrote “What About You?”, a powerful piece that has been included in almost all pit books over the past 20 years. It remains fresh and relevant today because of its absolute raw truth. “What About You?” is Bob's heartfelt advice to everyone in off-road, about safety and taking care of yourself and those you are with during the race. Many are convinced “What About You?” has saved lives over the last two decades. Bob says he was “simply speaking from the heart.” Over the years Bob has shown his passion, humility and wisdom. They are matched only by his unshakeable ethic. There have been many young racers who have been helped along their way by Bower. He's always been a champion of the little guy. Sometimes it's a quiet conversation, sometimes a few hours of highway windshield time, other times simply introducing them to others in the sport who could help them get better. Young stars like Robby Gordon, Ivan Stewart, Jimmie Johnson, Ryan Arciero, and Rob MacCachren all have had Bob help them along in their racing career in one small way or another. For Bob Bower, it has been a labor of love. “I never wanted to change things in our sport, I just wanted to do what I could to help it along.” -- Courtesy of ORMHOF More information on Slow Baja Adventures: https://www.slowbaja.com/adventures

Today's show is with Pauline Marguerite Wickham --Paulina, as she's known in Baja, is a retired “child-whisperer,” having taught for over 35 years. She resides full-time in Bahía de Los Angeles, where she keeps busy with three mules, a burro, an elderly dog, and her husband, "Dern." We discuss her life and friendship with Baja legend, prospector, and raunchy-raconteur Herman Hill. She began traveling to Baja at 3. She fondly remembers sport fishing trips to Ensenada with her Grandfather. As the men fished, she would dip her sleeves into the bait well filling them with cool water and tiny fish. From those earliest days, Baja has played a significant role in Paulina's life. Her parents were adventure-seekers. They were avid off-roaders and raced motorcycles. Paulina soon joined them, running enduros in the powder-puff class. She made many trips to Baja in high school and continued traveling to BDLA to study Marine Biology in college. She is a highly accomplished mule rider and had ridden with the vaqueros of Rancho San Gregorio during the spring round-ups --an experience she calls “life-changing!” Paulina loves a challenge and relishes her arduous remote emergency radio work with BFGoodrich for SCORE. She rides for hours carrying radio equipment by mule high into the mountains so the racers and teams can maintain vital communication.

The Friday Newsletter | Daily Gardener Community Historical Events 1735 Birth of Charles-Joseph Lamoral, French Field Marshal, writer, and member of the princely family of Ligne ("Leen-ya"). Charles once wrote, I should like to inflame the whole world with my taste for gardening. There is no virtue that I would not attribute to the man who lives to project and execute gardens. 1812 Birth of Edward Lear, English artist, musician, and writer. Edward is remembered for his literary nonsense in poetry and prose. He once wrote, As for myself, I am sitting up today for the first time - partly dressed - [something] the cucumber said when oil and vinegar were poured over him, salt & pepper being omitted. Edward also popularized the limerick. Here's an Edward Lear limerick for gardeners. There was an old person so silly, He poked his head into a lily; But six bees who lived there, filled him full of despair, For they stung that old person so silly. 1820 Birth of Florence Nightingale (books about this person), English social reformer, statistician, and founder of modern nursing. Florence earned the moniker "The Lady with the Lamp" during the Crimean War because she would make her rounds to visit wounded soldiers with a lamp during the night. The American poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow used the term in his poem Santa Filomena, which he wrote in honor of Florence's work in Scutari Hospital. Florence was named after Florence, Italy - the city where she was born. As a young girl, she and her sister had their garden to plant and tend. When Florence was 13, she collected flowers with a 77-year-old botanist named Margaret Stovin. Together they gathered and pressed over 100 different species of plants. This charming story was featured in a 2008 book by Richard Mendelsohn. Today, Florence and Margaret's flowers are housed at the Natural History Museum in London. As an adult, Florence wrote, Poetry and imagination begin life. A child will fall on its knees on the gravel walk at the sight of a pink hawthorn in full flower, when it is by itself, to praise God for it. As a nurse, Florence believed flowers helped with the morale and recovery of her patients. And personally, the foxglove was her favorite flower. And Florence received a lovely bouquet every week from William Rathbone, the man who founded the Queen Victoria Jubilee Institute for Nurses. In 2020, one of the anticipated gardens was dedicated to Florence during the pandemic. The year 2020 marked the 200th Anniversary of her birth, and the garden was to be called The Florence Nightingale Garden - A Celebration of Modern Day Nursing. Instead, the garden debuted at the Chelsea Flower Show in 2021. The garden featured “Images from Florence Nightingale's pressed flower collection and echoes of her handwriting … on… the timber walls.” Today Florence is remembered in the Florence Nightingale Museum in London, which celebrates the life and work of the best-known figure in nursing history. She is also honored with the Florence Nightingale rose — a pretty pale pink fragrant rose. 1856 Birth of Andreas Franz Wilhelm Schimper, German botanist and phytogeographer Andreas was a significant player in the early days of plant ecology. In 1901, his work was cut short due to his untimely death at 45 after contracting Malaria in Cameroon. Andreas coined the terms tropical rainforest and sclerophyll and is honored in many species names. Grow That Garden Library™ Book Recommendation P. Allen Smith's Garden Home by P. Allen Smith This book came out in 2003, and the subtitle is Creating a Garden for Everyday Living. Well, to me, this book is a garden classic. You get to know a little bit about P. Allen Smith's biography. His family's love of gardens, his experience working in the nursery business - plus all of the great relationships that he made working in some of England's top gardens. (He could write a book on that alone.) Fascinating stories. But in all seriousness, this book is so foundational to gardening. It's a great book to give new gardeners. And it's also an excellent book for gardeners who are considering a redesign or, after a long winter, feel like they need to brush up on their skills. The bulk of this book is dedicated to Allen's twelve garden design principles. He'll talk about aspects like framing a view, having texture in the garden, rhythm, pattern, color, etc. Now I thought I'd share this little excerpt from Allen's introduction. And here he's talking about how he created the garden rooms on his own property. He writes, I began working out the various outdoor rooms to see how they related to the house itself. The shape to one another and to the of the house and the lot created a series of rectangular spaces. I recognized an opportunity to design strong unbroken lines of sight or axes from one garden room into the next. Like an open door, these visual sight lines would allow visitors to stand in one room and see directly into the next. After positioning these openings through portals or entries further divided the rectangles into nine garden rooms and began to imagine how each space could have its own personality yet remain a part of a cohesive whole. And then I love what he says next. Because he's talking about paths, and I always feel like paths are so underrated; they're almost an afterthought for so many gardeners. So Allen says, As I laid out this plan on paper, I added an entire circuit or path that looped around the house, connecting one garden room to the next. From here, I imagined hedges and fences that would serve as "walls" for each room, with arbors and gates as "doorways." And then, he goes on to talk about more ways that he created these garden rooms. And so, in this book, Allen not only goes through his 12 principles of design, but he also takes you on tour. Through each of his garden rooms because they help illustrate each of those principles. It's a fabulous book. It's a garden basic - and it's so affordable now that it's been on the market so long. This book is 224 pages of P. Allen Smith's expertise, his twelve principles of garden design, and his fantastic personal garden. You can get a copy of P. Allen Smith's Garden Home by P. Allen Smith and support the show using the Amazon link in today's show notes for around $3. Botanic Spark 1943 On this day, the Belvidere Daily Republican posted an article entitled Gardeners Get Nine-Point Plan On Care Of Hose. If mindful of the rubber shortage, you're wondering how to coddle your garden hose through its important Victory-garden job this year, an expert here has a "nine-point program" for hose care that may mean the difference between a backyard farmer's success or failure. W. S. Richardson, manager of the industrial products division of B. F. Goodrich, outlines his nine points as follows: 1. Never drive a car over your hose. 2. Don't leave it lying in the sun 3. Coil it neatly and hang it up. 4. But not on a spike or sharp-edged stick. 5. Be sure it's drained first, for water left in the hose will damage the fabric reinforcement. 6. Don't turn off the water at the nozzle. 7. Don't try to stop the flow by doubling the hose back on itself for either way may give you a 'blow-out.' 8. Don't drag a hose over sharp stones in a rock garden. 9. Don't pick an oily spot on the driveway or floor of your garage as the place to coil it. He concludes, "[Oil] destroys most rubber, and you might end up with a leaky hose and a once-promising Victory garden 'burned up' by drought. Thanks for listening to The Daily Gardener And remember: For a happy, healthy life, garden every day.
