Video recording of this episode is available here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2OcxwmDuUeU&ab_channel=UCD-UniversityCollegeDublin Henry Glassie is College Professor Emeritus at Indiana University, Bloomington, USA, and has published widely in the fields of material culture and vernacular architecture. His contribution to the discipline of Irish Folklore and Ethnology has been exceptional. Having lived in Ballymenone, Co. Fermanagh, for almost a decade in the 1970s, Professor Glassie published a number of studies inspired by the community there, including All Silver and No Brass (1975), Passing the Time in Ballymenone (1982) and The Stars of Ballymenone (2006). These books are landmark works which have become classic texts for students of Folklore in Ireland and abroad, along with many other items on Professor Glassie's long list of publications. Henry has rendered invaluable service to our understanding of Irish popular tradition and vernacular culture, and he can truly be described as a towering figure in the study of Irish Folklore for more than half a century. Even in his retirement, he remains a staunch and committed friend to Ireland and to the people he worked with while carrying out fieldwork here. Henry has had a long and extremely positive relationship with UCD since the establishment of the Department of Irish Folklore in the university in the early 1970s. With the approach of the fiftieth anniversary of his first major publication on Irish Folklore, All Silver and No Brass, it was deemed especially appropriate for the University to take the opportunity to honour Professor Glassie, and on Wednesday 21 May 2025, Henry was awarded an Honorary Doctorate of Arts from UCD, in recognition of his remarkable contribution to the growing area of Irish Studies in general, and to the field of Irish Folklore and Ethnology in particular. It was a great honour and personal privilege for me to sit and 'Pass the Time' with Henry, and over the course of ninety minutes we explored his background, interests, intellectual life, and experiences of field work, as well as delving into the topics of place, creativity, art, meaning, identity, belonging and despair; invoking old friends such as Fred B. Kniffen, E. Estyn Evans, Michael J. Murphy, Seán Ó Súilleabháin, Ellen Cutler, Tommy Love, Michael Boyle, Peter Flanagan, and Hugh Nolan as we trooped our way homewards. My thanks to all my colleagues at the NFC, as well as Susan Lysaght, Sandra Collins, Evelyn Flanagan, Andrew Fogarty, Veronica Aguilar Olmos, Dominic Martella for making this episode possible, and - most especially - to Henry and Pravina for their generosity, openness and kindness.

Open and honest, warm and approachable. Father O'Brien gives priests a great name. He has made such a positive imprint on our community, and we are sad to see him move on to his next assignment, as is the dedicated life of a priest. Listen as this Bloomington native turned nomadic priest talks rectory life, choosing to attend seminary and the low rate of graduates, what his parents thought of his life choice, keeping a line between being the "cool" priest and reverence, the new pope and the excitement that brings to the country and the faith, relying on a greater power to inform all decisions and finding peace in that. What an honor to interview someone so open to any and all questions regarding a calling that is often stigmatized. Father O'Brien was a pleasure, thoughtful and a great example of practicing what you preach.I'd like to thank this episode's sponsor Illini Pella Windows & Doors of Champaign.

With a wealth of experience consulting for over 700 brands like Nike and IBM, Baer leverages his marketing prowess and understanding of customer experience to shine a spotlight on the intricacies of the tequila market. He observes the dynamic landscape of the tequila industry characterized by intense competition among 2,000 brands, emphasizing the need for differentiation and effective marketing strategies in a market with only 500 true competitors. Baer highlights the unique production elements of tequila, such as its geographical limitations in Mexico and the critical role that factors like agave growth play in product quality, making it a fascinating realm for business innovation and strategic differentiation. Key Takeaways Speed is a significant competitive advantage in business and customer experience by allowing companies to deliver value more efficiently. Eliminating internal handoffs and processes that slow down operations can give a competitive edge. AI is impacting customer expectations, and businesses need to adapt to meet changing demands. Businesses need to focus on strategic growth and innovation to stay ahead of competitors and meet customer needs.

Most of us have that event in our life that seemed insignificant at the time but ultimately defined the trajectory of our life. For Stacy Bridavsky, it was an internet cat film festival after an exhausting day of orientation for a new job at an art museum in Minneapolis. It was here that her future husband Mike, also known as Lil Bub's dude, fell head over heels for her. In less than a year, she was living with him (in sin) in Bloomington, which was where she learned of the heartbreaking and suspicious 2015 death of IU student Joseph Smedley, who was found dead in Griffy Lake with 66 pounds of rocks strapped to his back. Although it was ruled a suicide, Joseph's family believed there was foul play. So does Stacy, who created the podcast A Heavy Weight to advocate for Joseph and his family.

Due to technical difficulties this past Sunday, the first few minutes of the sermon were not recorded. To help catch you up to speed, here's a brief summary of what was missed at the beginning of the podcast."This morning, we begin a new series on relationships by focusing on friendship. Following our celebration of Jesus' resurrection last week, we're asking: if the resurrection truly transforms everything, how does it change our everyday lives and relationships right now? Over the next four weeks, we'll explore how the gospel—the good news of Jesus' death and resurrection—transforms our friendships, marriages, parenting, and neighboring. Today, we see that we were made for friendship. In Genesis 2, God creates Adam and places him in a good, flourishing garden, yet declares it “not good” for man to be alone. God's solution is to create Eve, emphasizing that humans are fundamentally relational beings, reflecting the relational nature of God himself, who exists eternally in community as Trinity. Friendship, therefore, is not an optional extra; it's central to human flourishing. Friendship is part of our design and necessary for true joy. However, the biblical story also shows that sin fractured both our relationship with God and with one another, introducing shame and conflict into our friendships. Yet, through the resurrection, Jesus offers restoration for these broken relationships."April 27, 2025 | Nick Harsh

Any day now, a federal judge is expected to give final approval to a $2.8 billion settlement of three antitrust lawsuits that could dramatically alter the landscape of college sports. And given the tumult since the creation of the transfer portal and name, image and likeness opportunities for athletes, that's saying something. In addition to awarding damages to athletes over the last decade who lost out on NIL opportunities, the settlement agreement lays out a framework for compensating athletes going forward that smashes the status quo. Under the deal, schools will be able to pay athletes directly for the use of their names, images and likenesses as a form of revenue-sharing. However, athletes still will be able to receive money from other NIL sources, and that includes what we call NIL collectives—independent groups, usually founded by alumni and boosters, that pool money for NIL deals benefitting their schools' athletes. There are rules in the settlement for what qualifies as a legitimate deal via collectives, but this element of the settlement has its skeptics. In a special edition of the IBJ Podcast, host Mason King consults Pete Yonkman, president of Bloomington-based Cook Group and the founder of two collectives established to help Indiana University athletes benefit from NIL opportunities. If the settlement agreement is approved as anticipated, Yonkman foresees a blizzard of lawsuits and a college sports landscape with only a relative handful of schools that can attract top talent and compete for championships. What's at stake, he says, is "what we love about college sports." He also suggests a framework for a solution.

On this episode of “Cultivating Second Chair Leaders,” we will take a closer look at how celebrating baptismal identity through worship has shaped the KINDLE experience and its value when we are serving as Christ like servant leaders in our own settings.

We sat down with Jassen Yep, the Indiana Hoosier who came into Bloomington with a 1:57 200 breast and recently won an NCAA title in the same event with a 1:48. Yep takes us through his journey at Indiana and how he made the progression from barely recruited (he was not a walk-on, but he did come in with very little scholarship money) to #4 performer all-time in the 200 breast. While Yep planned to retire after NCAAs, this wave of success and enjoyment of his sport has led Jassen to reconsider. The Hoosier will now keep training while he finishes his Master's degree in sociology with US Trials in June in his sights.
