This playlist is 87% vinyl friendly. Impressive. Döhmann Helix One MK III Turntable with Vacuum Hold-Down Previewing at The 2026 AXPONA Show, I’m not sure whether the $150,000 price tag included the Wilson Benesch Graviton Ti arm, Tessellate Diamond cartridge, Supatrac Nighthawk 12** arm with DS Audio Grandmaster EX cartridge, analog front end feeding the ARC Ref 10 phono (or DS Audio TB-100 tube equalizer), the new ARC Ref 20 preamp, ARC Ref 330 mono amps, Wilson Audio XVX loudspeakers, cables from Transparent and the Olympus Ultra racks from Critical Mass Systems… or not. Any track marked * has been given either a tiny or a slightly larger 41 Rooms tweak/edit/chop and the occasional tune might sound a bit dodgy, quality-wise. On top of that, the switch between different decades and production values never helps in the mix here. Lyric of Playlist 152 Sad Alex! 00.00 (Intro) THE FLAMINGOS – Stars (Edit) – Unreleased demo – 1983. Episode #1 for info. 00.41 NEW ORDER – The Village (Kilkenny Rose Hill Hotel, 24.4.83) – Power Corruption and Lies, Definitive Edition – Warner Music – 2020 It gets off to a slightly shaky start at what was a legendary night in early years New Order history, with Barney and Hooky acting as a modern day comedy double act for the evening. The onstage antics were definitely inspired by seeing the hotel’s flyer in the afternoon… and I don’t remember Liam turning up. Me on photos duty, none of which I would have remembered until Steve Morris sent me photos I’d taken this night… with my writing on the back… followed by the above Movement Definitive Edition then including the video. I remember the afternoon soundcheck chat and Ozzy leaving the mixing desk mid gig and standing next to me but the things you forget… 05.03 PAUL HAIG – Trip Out The Rider – 7″ – Impotent Fury – 2010 ‘Packaged in a fancy pants paper cut sleeve that is hand screen-printed, foil embossed and limited to 500 copies. Rumoured to be the first of six vinyl releases… ‘ – Discogs His albums surface only very occasionally these days and any teaser singles even less so. This 7″ – driving with the zest of his early years – appears to have been the most recent but he’s a ‘signature’ voice we should hear more of. 07.41 LINES OF SILENCE – Lines In Opposition (Radio Edit) – Lines In Opposition, LP – Sprechen – 2026 These sleeves aren’t getting any easier to look at. An experimental krautrock band (Can? Neu?… ) out of Todmorden, UK – ‘a hotbed of UFO activity and home to the UK’s highest ever beach‘ – and I slightly cheated the vinyl thing here, as the Radio Edit is only downloadable, with the full version on the just released vinyl album. Should have gone with the latter. 11.12 SILICON VALLEY – X-Cell – Cold Waves Of Color Volume 3, v/artists LP – Color Disc – 2016 Whoever they were/are, they seem to have only released six singular tracks over a period of forty two years(!) * and on Color Disc label, v/artist albums only. A side hustle, the SV releases are not. * Makes Got-Ta-Scatta look prolific. 15.09 CLOCK DVA – 4 Hours (7″ Version) – 7″ – Fetish – 1981 Adi Newton is a voice that sits you up but they’d had a bucket load of self and semi released material before I tuned in with the Thirst album that includes this their debut 7″. 18.59 THE EVENT GROUP – Approach Work (Pt B) – Approach Work, self released, cassette only – ? – 1983 For any kids picking up on this, the voice you hear here is of England cricketing legend of yesteryear, Freddie Truman, also featured on the main Approach Work track already playlisted on 41 Rooms and the cassette’s cover, obviously, where he nearly looks like he’s got his ever present pipe on the go. And as for the church bells on the track… maybe adding to the image of a village green setting? Search out the band’s Feb ’82 Riverside TV appearance at some point. An entertaining watch at the time and another release for me to upload (the images anyway) to Discogs at some point, maybe. 25.11 UT – Evangelist – Split 7″ – Blast First – 1989 Yep, also the lead track from the 1987 album, In Gut’s House but I’ve gone for the, split with Dinosaur Jr., 7″ and as mentioned before here at 41 Rooms, a band I’ve grown to like more now than I maybe did back then. Cheers for the 41 Rooms iD snippet, Nina! Supporting The Fall, Bedford Boys Club, 1.10.83 Photo credit: Dec Hickey 27.57 YOUNG MARBLE GIANTS – Include Me Out – Colossal Youth, LP – Rough Trade – 1980 In YMG world this is them nearly rocking out! 29.50 KAREN MARKS – Cold Café – 7″ – Astor – 1980 Out of Australia and her only release at the time but the price tag the single has acquired through the years since (one of a few on this show), brought about a 2019 EP of tracks also recorded back in the day. Definitely an ‘indie’ sound. 32.42 DEENA WEBSTER – Scarborough Fair – 7″ – Parlophone – 1968 A folk standard I seem to remember hearing fairly regularly when I was young, so in one guise or another it must have cropped up on the radio and TV, though I never had the urge to buy it until I heard Deena’s version in more recent years and though she maintained the tempo of the song’s more traditional singers it’s everything backing her wasting no time in getting ‘busy’ that helps this version get my vote. ‘Bustling folk’, so let’s hear it for Deena and her arranger… “I chose none of the singles (from the album Is Tuesdays Child) apart from Scarborough Fair.” The track was one of the first arrangements for another artist by Barbara Moore. She was best known for her work as a singer with The Ladybirds and, when she arrived at the studio, many of the musicians thought that she'd come to help with backing vocals. She remembers that when she got onto the rostrum to conduct,the baton “it fell out of my sweaty little palm and ended up on the bass drum – that relaxed the whole atmosphere”. At the end of the session, Moore received a standing ovation from the 60 string andhorn players present. – Record Collector/Ian Shirley, #424, Jan 2014 edit 35.38 AL STEWART – Turn Into Earth – 7″ b-side – Decca – 1966 The flip may from Stewart’s debut release and his vocal ‘swagger’ makes this a rarity, in that it’s the only time I can think of where I’ve preferred a Yardbirds song performed by others… not that there are many of those. 38.29 MASSIVE ATTACK – Angel (Live) – Stream only – 2006 Performed as part of UK Channel 4’s first season of Live from Abbey Road series, with the Bristol band and Horace Andy managing to give the track even more gravitas and tension than on the its studio recording. No small feat. 43.15 CALLERS – Bloodless Ties – Life Of Love, LP – Western Vinyl – 2010 Sara Lucas’ vocal is just sublime, even if that bass guitar keeps hitting a note that I DO NOT LIKE. 47.39 PLATON DAVYDOV (feat OLEG KIRILKOV) – Sadness * – Stream only? – 2019 Violins… 49.02 MARTYN BATES – I’ll Wrap Your Hopes – Letters To A Scattered Family, LP – Integrity – 1990 Poetry, with a rippling outro. 53.01 FINK – Memorise Your Senses – The City Is Coming To Erase It All, LP – R’COUP’D – 2026 It took this his ninth album for me to have even heard of him, so I might have to rewind on him. 56.41 BÔA – Duvet – 7″ – Cinema-Kan – 2018 Or bôa… and on listening to the 1998 debut album, The Race Of A Thousand Camels, that first included this song, a band even at that point sounding like they might have been fighting to be two bands? I’d never heard of them until this track recently bumped into me but you then do a bit of a dig and Duvet has 43million Youtube hits… so you have to do a bigger dig. Here they sound not unlike The Sundays but that bigger dig explains some of the above. 01.00.00 RENAISSANCE – Back Home Once Again – 7″ – Warner Brothers – 1977 And what were the chances? Looking for something to follow Boa’s Duvet I decided on this 1977 single from Renaissance, a ‘prog folk’ band who for a couple of years in the late ’70s I had a real liking for. It turns out that Bôa’s drummer, Lee Sullivan is the son of Renaissance’s former drummer, Terry Sullivan. Who’d have thunk, eh? 01.03.03 HANNE HUKKELBERG – Do As I Do – Little Things, LP – Leaf – 2005 Promo’d (albeit as a CD only) as the single off the album at the time, so this was the ‘teaser’ – and it’s easy to see why. Cute! 01.06.39 08/15 – 1000 Gelbe Tennisbälle – 7″ – Sterbt Alle – 2025 If you had thoughts of releasing music on the subject of 1000 yellow tennis balls then someone’s beaten you to it. A 300 run re-release of their 1981 and only single. 01.11.25 COLDCUT – Beats + Pieces (Mo’ Bass Remix) – 12″ – Ahead Of Our Time – 1987 With a nod to Steinski, they were ahead of most of the others. 01.17.15 RAE & CHRISTIAN – Check The Technique (feat Tony D, Jazzy Jeff and Agent 86) (edit) – Mercury Rising, 2LP – LateNightTales – 2013 Minus the wonderful Veba’s vocals but with Mark Rae’s hip hop credentials they still produce. 01.21.10 THE JUJU ORCHESTRA – What Is Hip (Mo’ Horizons Hipstyle) – 12″ – Remixes – Agogo Records – 2006 TC (RIP) spending some time in the studio with the youngsters. 01.26.55 SAD ALEX – Ice Ice Baby (But You Have Anxiety) – Stream only – 2025 The only way Vanilla Ice was going to get on 41 Rooms was via som break borrowing… and songwriter Alex Saad has done just that. 01.28.59 SIMPLE MINDS – King Is White And In The Crowd – 12″ b-side – Virgin – 1982 Thankfully still here holding on to their futurist feel, even if the sound is housed in a contender for Worst Record Sleeve of all time. So, you’re only get the reverse… and that’s bad enough. 01.34.27 WAMDUE PROJECT – King Of My Castle (Original Version) * – 12″ – Eruption – 1998 More kings! Unusual for a dance track with nothing special in the vocals department to chart mainstream but this did just that. Maybe some intrigue and charm in the ‘Must be the reason why I’m king of my castle‘ lyric as it chugs along? Sometimes there’s just no knowing… 01.39.04 JOHNNY MAESTRO & THE CRESTS – I’m Stepping Out Of The Picture – 7″ – Scepter Records – 1965 If there’s a world in music I won’t stop finding ‘new’ gems it’s the rare/northern etc soul scene. I heard this gritty and restrained-in-equal-measures brassy belter for the first time only recently, via Beth Arzy (Jetstream Pony and others) capturing herself in front of a DJ spinning this tune. Re-released a couple of times in the intervening years, I won’t though be getting an original copy any time soon, as that could be anywhere between $800 and for a promo copy, $1700! 01.41.17 JIMMY RUFFIN – It’s Wonderful (To Be Loved By You) – 7″ – Tamla Motown – 1970 Motown still in their prime in these years and come the mid-late 70s I had the grand notion of collecting every UK Motown single between TMG 501 and TMG 801… but I soon gave up the ghost, though this one made it into the fold. 01.43.58 McFADDEN & WHITEHEAD – Ain’t No Stoppin’ Us Now * – 12″ – Philadelphia Int – 1979 Reminds me of Bedfordshire clubs of the time, and footballing mates and girlfriends and not a care in the world. 01.49.53 THE TYRREL CORPORATION – Going Home (Original Mix) * – 12″ – Cooltempo – 1992 Had three or four biggish tunes that gave them an identity of sorts. Not sure why great train robber, Buster Edwards is here but this was a 15.8.92 ad, most probably in Record Mirror. 01.55.08 NEW ORDER (Again!) – World In Motion (1990 No Alla Violenza Mix) * – 12″ – Factory – 1990 It’s World Cup time again! So, for only the second time (I think) in 41 Rooms’ history it’s New Order twice in one show – and the last time was Show 1! With a break in there nicked from somewhere I can’t quite grasp and Barney’s vocal deservedly getting some real breathing space here in between the Italo piano, will it do the job for us footie fans this time around? Who’d be an England fan, eh? If we’re still in the mix by show 153 we’re doing OK. Show 153 will be alive July 5.

(1) James Tabor introduces the historical Mary through the city of Sepphoris, the urban capital of Galilee located just miles from Nazareth. Unlike the small village of Nazareth, Sepphoris was a bustling Roman "jewel" where Mary was born to parents Joachim and Anne. Joseph is described as a "tecton" or builder, likely a stonemason involved in the city's reconstruction after it was burned by Romans in 4 BCE. Tabor emphasizes the traumatic environment of Jesus' infancy, suggesting Mary witnessed the smoke of the city and thousands of Roman crucifixions, which shaped her spiritual focus on the kingdom of God.

Fluent Fiction - Hebrew: Love and Allergies at the Bustling Carmel Market Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/he/episode/2026-05-05-22-34-02-he Story Transcript:He: הקרמל בשוק היה מלא צבעים וריחות.En: The Carmel Market was full of colors and scents.He: אביב הסתובב בין הדוכנים, עיניו נצצו בהתרגשות.En: Aviv wandered between the stalls, his eyes sparkling with excitement.He: הוא אהב להדריך תיירים בשוק העמוס בתל אביב.En: He loved guiding tourists through the bustling market in Tel Aviv.He: ספוג בריחות של תבלינים ופרחים, אביב הכין את הקבוצה לתחושת האביב ולחגיגות ל"ג בעומר הקרבים.En: Immersed in the scents of spices and flowers, Aviv prepared the group for the feeling of spring and the upcoming Lag BaOmer celebrations.He: אבל בפנים, הוא היה מעט מתוח.En: But inside, he was a bit anxious.He: האם הוא יספק את הציפיות של כולם?En: Would he meet everyone's expectations?He: האם הוא יספק את הציפיות של עצמו?En: Would he meet his own expectations?He: תמר, חברתו ודוקטור לרפואה, הלכה לצידו.En: Tamar, his girlfriend and a doctor, walked beside him.He: היא שמרה ראש פתוח ועין קשובה על כל דבר.En: She kept an open mind and a keen eye on everything.He: כל כך אהבה אותו ורצתה לראות אותו מצליח.En: She loved him so much and wanted to see him succeed.He: כשהגיעו לדוכן הפירות הטרופיים, אביב נטש את החששות ונגס בפירות האקזוטיים.En: When they reached the tropical fruit stand, Aviv let go of his worries and bit into the exotic fruits.He: החיוך שלו הבהיר עד כמה הוא אוהב את ישראל, עם כל הפולקלור שלה והטעמים השונים.En: His smile showed just how much he loved Israel, with all its folklore and diverse flavors.He: אבל אז זה קרה.En: But then it happened.He: פניו החלו להתנפח, עיניו התקמצו והוא נחנק.En: His face began to swell, his eyes squinted, and he was choking.He: זה היה האלרגיה.En: It was the allergy.He: עצי הקוקוס שבתוך הפירות עשו לו רע.En: The coconut trees within the fruits did him harm.He: הקבוצה נבהלה, תמר ידעה שהיא צריכה לפעול מייד.En: The group panicked, but Tamar knew she needed to act immediately.He: היא הוציאה אפיפן מהתיק שלה והזריקה לאביב בזרועו.En: She pulled an EpiPen from her bag and injected Aviv in his arm.He: "אל תדאג", אמרה ברוגע, "אני איתך".En: "Don't worry," she said calmly, "I'm with you."He: תוך כדי שהיא מטפלת בו, תמר ניווטה את הקבוצה הרחק מההמון.En: While attending to him, Tamar guided the group away from the crowd.He: ההתקפה חלפה ואביב השתחרר לאט.En: The attack subsided and Aviv gradually relaxed.He: הוא הביט בתמר בעיניים מלאות תודה.En: He looked at Tamar with eyes full of gratitude.He: "את מלאך", אמר לה, הקול שלו נסדק מהתרגשות.En: "You're an angel," he told her, his voice cracking with emotion.He: הם המשיכו את הסיור, יחד, בהליכה מרגיעה יותר.En: They continued the tour, together, with a more soothing pace.He: אביב הרגיש סיפוק פנימי, לא רק בגלל שניצל מהאלרגיה, אלא משום שידע שהוא יכול להסתמך על האנשים שהוא אוהב.En: Aviv felt a sense of inner fulfillment, not only because he was saved from the allergy, but because he knew he could rely on the people he loved.He: למרות הכשל, הרגיש בטוח יותר.En: Despite the mishap, he felt more confident.He: בסופו של היום, לא היה צורך לתיירים במילים גדולות – רק חוויה עם לב פתוח וקצת אומץ.En: At the end of the day, big words weren't necessary for the tourists—just an experience with an open heart and a bit of courage.He: האווירה בשוק נשארה קסומה.En: The atmosphere in the market remained magical.He: רוח האביב עזרה לאביב להבין את עוצמתם של קשרים ואמונה בעצמך.En: The spring spirit helped Aviv realize the strength of connections and believing in oneself.He: חגיגות ל"ג בעומר המשיכו בתוך שמחה ושירים, כשהחיים חוזרים לשגרה בשוק הקרמל.En: The Lag BaOmer celebrations continued with joy and songs, as life returned to normal at the Carmel Market.He: אביב ותמר הלכו ביחד לאורך הדוכנים, כשהם נהנים מכל רגע, כשהאהבה מנחה את דרכם.En: Aviv and Tamar walked together along the stalls, enjoying every moment, guided by love.

More Post-Dispatch podcasts.  Please consider subscribing. From the start of the offseason and the beginning for a new front officer leader, the Cardinals have signaled their priority this winter is to accumulate talent that will help them contend in the future. They began that process by trading Sonny Gray and $20 million to the Boston Red Sox for a pair of pitching prospects, Richard Fitts and Brandon Clarke, and now the Cardinals' pursuit continues with the arrival of MLB's biggest gathering of the Hot Stove season. The Winter Meetings are coming. To discuss the Cardinals' to-do list for the Winter Meetings, KMOX/104.1 FM's Kevin Wheeler rejoins the Best Podcast in Baseball. He and BPIB host Derrick Goold discuss the Cardinals' search to trade Nolan Arenado and what happens if another winter passes without a deal; which of the players nearing free agency, such as Brendan Donovan and JoJo Romero, will help the Cardinals achieve their goal of accumulating young talent; and what does a contract extension look like for manager Oli Marmol. The significant National Baseball Hall of Fame vote set for Dec. 7 is also discussed. This is the first of two episodes because what started as a short conversation spilled into a heated debate about, oh, just the future economic structure of baseball. Look for that bonus BPIB shortly. In its 13th season as one of the first and most widely heard podcasts on baseball and the Cardinals, the Best Podcast in Baseball has reached a new season-high with 30 episodes. Each episode is sponsored weekly by Closets by Design of St. Louis, is a production of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, StlToday.com, and lead baseball writer Derrick Goold.

Story Transcript:No: På en frisk høstdag i Bergen, der gule blader fløy rundt i vinden, var det et yrende liv ved Fisketorget.En: On a brisk autumn day in Bergen, where yellow leaves flew around in the wind, there was bustling life at Fisketorget.No: Lukten av saltvann blandet med aromaen fra fersk sjømat lå tungt i luften.En: The scent of saltwater mixed with the aroma of fresh seafood hung heavily in the air.No: Her, midt blant boder fulle av kraftige krabber og glinsende sild, møttes to tenåringer for første gang.En: Here, amidst stalls full of robust crabs and gleaming herring, two teenagers met for the first time.No: Eirik gikk langs bodene sammen med sin far.En: Eirik walked along the stalls with his father.No: Han trakk jakken tettere rundt seg, ikke bare for å holde høstkulda ute, men også for å skjerme seg fra sine egne tanker.En: He pulled his jacket tighter around him, not only to keep out the autumn chill but also to shield himself from his own thoughts.No: Han visste at dette møtet var uunngåelig, men det rokket ved alt han var komfortabel med.En: He knew this meeting was inevitable, but it unsettled everything he was comfortable with.No: Foran ham gikk Astrid, morens nye stebarn, med et åpent smil og et nysgjerrig blikk som utforsket alt rundt dem.En: Ahead of him walked Astrid, his mother's new stepchild, with an open smile and a curious look exploring everything around them.No: "Se der, Eirik!En: "Look there, Eirik!"No: " Astrid ropte plutselig, mens hun pekte mot en bod hvor en mann holdt en stor levende krabbe i hendene.En: Astrid suddenly shouted, pointing towards a stall where a man held a large live crab in his hands.No: Eirik nølte, men hennes oppspilte glede vekket en gnist av nysgjerrighet i ham.En: Eirik hesitated, but her excited joy sparked a hint of curiosity in him.No: "Kom og se!En: "Come and see!"No: " Astrid vinket, og Eirik tok et skritt frem.En: Astrid waved, and Eirik took a step forward.No: De stod nå sammen ved boden.En: They now stood together at the stall.No: Krabben strevde ved selgerens grep, og Astrid lo da den sprutet vann.En: The crab struggled in the seller's grip, and Astrid laughed as it splashed water.No: Eirik kunne ikke la være å smile, om så bare for et øyeblikk.En: Eirik couldn't help but smile, if only for a moment.No: "Er den ikke fascinerende?En: "Isn't it fascinating?"No: " spurte Astrid med et glimt i øynene.En: Astrid asked with a twinkle in her eyes.No: Eirik nikket, litt overrasket over at han faktisk begynte å slappe av.En: Eirik nodded, a bit surprised that he was actually starting to relax.No: De beveget seg videre gjennom markedet, og Astrids entusiasme begynte å smitte over på Eirik.En: They moved on through the market, and Astrid's enthusiasm began to rub off on Eirik.No: En gateartist tiltrakk seg en mengde ved å spille trekkspill.En: A street performer attracted a crowd by playing the accordion.No: Lyden var oppløftende, og snart sto Eirik og Astrid sammen blant publikum.En: The sound was uplifting, and soon Eirik and Astrid were standing together among the audience.No: Plutselig begynte artisten å danse en morsom dans, og Astrid fniste.En: Suddenly, the performer began to dance a funny dance, and Astrid giggled.No: "Sjekk de bevegelsene!En: "Check out those moves!"No: " sa hun, og Eirik lo med henne.En: she said, and Eirik laughed with her.No: Øyeblikket fylte Eirik med en uventet varme, en lettelse fra den tunge følelsen han hadde båret med seg.En: The moment filled Eirik with unexpected warmth, a relief from the heavy feeling he had been carrying.No: Da ettermiddagen gled over til tidlig kveld, og det dempet lys dannet et gyllent skjær over markedet, vendte de to tenåringene tilbake til foreldrene sine.En: As the afternoon faded into early evening, and the dim light cast a golden hue over the market, the two teenagers returned to their parents.No: "Det var ikke så ille, ikke sant?En: "It wasn't so bad, was it?"No: " sa Astrid forsiktig.En: Astrid said cautiously.No: "Nei, det var ikke så ille," svarte Eirik med et lite smil.En: "No, it wasn't so bad," Eirik replied with a small smile.No: De delte et blikk, en forståelse, og kanskje, tenkte Eirik, var dette starten på noe nytt.En: They shared a look, an understanding, and perhaps, Eirik thought, this was the start of something new.No: Det var en enkel innsikt, men den hadde kraft.En: It was a simple insight, but it had power.No: Eirik skjønte at endringene ikke trengte å være skumle.En: Eirik realized that changes didn't have to be scary.No: Med Astrid ved sin side, virket den nye familien hans ikke lenger som en byrde, men som en mulighet for vennskap.En: With Astrid by his side, his new family no longer seemed like a burden, but an opportunity for friendship.No: De ruslet hjemover, pulsen fra markedets liv rundt dem, men nå med et fellesskap av egen.En: They strolled home, the pulse of the market's life surrounding them, but now with a sense of their own togetherness.No: Eirik hadde funnet litt av seg selv ved Fisketorget den dagen — og kanskje en venn, selv om hun kom i form av en ny stesøster.En: Eirik had found a bit of himself at Fisketorget that day—and perhaps a friend, even if she came in the form of a new stepsister.

Fluent Fiction - Korean: Cooperation Triumphs: Jiho's First Sale in the Bustling Market Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/ko/episode/2025-08-11-22-34-02-ko Story Transcript:Ko: 여름의 태양이 한낮 하늘에 떠오르고, 고대 한국의 시장은 사람들로 가득 찼습니다.En: The summer sun rose high in the midday sky, and the ancient Korean market was filled with people.Ko: 상인들은 각자의 상품을 크게 외치며, 살랑거리는 바람에 실리는 다양한 색의 물건들이 시장을 물들였습니다.En: Merchants loudly shouted their wares, and the market was colored with various goods swaying in the gentle breeze.Ko: 장터에는 작은 나들이 온 가족들, 바쁜 어머니들, 그리고 다양한 상인들이 붐볐습니다.En: The market was bustling with families on small outings, busy mothers, and various vendors.Ko: 그 속에서, 지호는 어린 상인으로서 첫 번째 큰 판매를 꿈꾸고 있었습니다.En: Amid all this, Jiho dreamt of his first big sale as a young merchant.Ko: 그는 시장에서 최고급 비단을 손에 넣어야 했습니다.En: He had to get his hands on the finest silk in the market.Ko: 그날, 그는 이 드문 비단을 자신의 손으로 갖기 위해 분투했습니다.En: That day, he struggled to acquire this rare silk for himself.Ko: 하지만 문제는 비단의 공급이 한정적이라는 것이었습니다.En: But the problem was that the supply of silk was limited.Ko: 그리고 친구인 수진도 같은 비단을 노리고 있었죠.En: And his friend Sujin was also aiming for the same silk.Ko: 비슷한 시각, 재능 있는 재단사인 민희는 아틀리에에 사용할 고급 비단을 찾고 있었습니다.En: Around the same time, a talented seamstress named Minhee was searching for high-quality silk to use in her atelier.Ko: 그녀는 자주 이 시장에 와서 최고의 재료를 직접 고르고 구입했습니다.En: She often came to this market to personally select and purchase the best materials.Ko: 오늘도 그녀는 예외가 아닙니다.En: Today was no exception.Ko: 그녀는 지호와 수진이 바라보는 그 비단에 깊은 관심이 있었습니다.En: She had a keen interest in the silk that Jiho and Sujin were eyeing.Ko: 지호는 큰 결정을 내려야 했습니다.En: Jiho had to make a big decision.Ko: 친구 수진과 협력하여 비단을 확보할 것인지, 아니면 그와 경쟁하여 민희에게 비단을 판매할 것인지 고민이 많았습니다.En: He was torn between cooperating with his friend Sujin to secure the silk or competing with her to sell it to Minhee.Ko: 긴장된 그 순간, 지호와 수진은 서로를 설득하려고 소리 높였습니다.En: In that tense moment, Jiho and Sujin raised their voices to persuade each other.Ko: 그러던 중, 민희가 중앙으로 들어섰습니다.En: In the midst of this, Minhee stepped into the center.Ko: 차분하고 명확한 목소리로 그녀는 새로운 제안을 내놓았습니다.En: With a calm and clear voice, she presented a new proposal.Ko: "왜 우리 모두가 이익을 볼 수 있도록 협력하지 않나요?En: "Why don't we all collaborate so that everyone benefits?"Ko: "라고 말하며, 그녀는 비단을 셋이 나누어 사는 방법을 제안했습니다.En: she suggested, proposing that the three of them buy the silk together.Ko: 민희는 필요한 만큼의 비단을 구입할 수 있었고, 나머지 비단을 지호와 수진이 나눠서 판매할 수 있었습니다.En: Minhee could purchase as much silk as she needed, and the remaining silk could be divided between Jiho and Sujin for them to sell.Ko: 지호는 잠시 고민했지만, 최종적으로 수진과 협력하기로 결정했습니다.En: Jiho hesitated for a moment but ultimately decided to collaborate with Sujin.Ko: 민희의 제안은 그들에게 모두 이익을 가져다줄 기회였기 때문입니다.En: Minhee's proposal was an opportunity that would benefit all of them.Ko: 또한, 그는 이 경험을 통해 협력의 중요성과 다른 사람들에 대한 신뢰가 얼마나 소중한지를 배웠습니다.En: Additionally, through this experience, he learned the importance of cooperation and how precious trust in others could be.Ko: 장터의 뜨거운 햇볕 아래, 세 사람은 모두 웃으며 그날의 거래를 완료했습니다.En: Under the hot sun of the market, the three smiled as they completed the day's transaction.Ko: 결국, 지호는 자신의 상인 동료들과의 협력을 통해 첫 번째 성공적인 판매를 이루었고, 이것은 그에게 새로운 시각을 열어주었습니다.En: In the end, Jiho achieved his first successful sale through cooperation with his fellow merchants, which opened up a new perspective for him.Ko: 장터의 주위는 변함없이 활기차고 아름다웠습니다.En: The market surroundings remained lively and beautiful.Ko: 그 속에서 모든 것이 어우러져 여름의 따뜻한 오후는 평화롭게 지나갔습니다.En: Amid this, everything blended together, and the warm summer afternoon passed peacefully.

In this episode we'll confront our addiction to activity and ask a hard question—Are we truly productive or just distracted? We'll explore how even good intentions can become spiritual roadblocks when we choose busyness over what Jesus calls “better.” From social media scrolling and constant multitasking to the pressures of family, work, and expectations, this episode will unpack how Jesus modeled stillness, prayer, and purposeful action—even in chaos. If you're feeling drained, always tired, or struggling to prioritize God in a full schedule, it might be time to check if you're worshiping the idol of bustling.Luke 10:38-42Mark 1:35Luke 6:12,13Matthew 11:28Matthew 14:23John 11:17-27You can now also WATCH C.L.!

Picture it, Maine and Boston, 2024 … A loon on a serene lake and six blind people are hearing its call from a boat in the middle of said lake, as the sound reverberates the way only sound can on open water. Fans cheer for their favourite baseball team and the sounds of their excitement echoes within one of the Major League's most famous ball parks. Co-host Kerry wins the award for the best sound leaping into the water. And a night full of crickets are in the audio foreground as a loon once again calls out, but from the lake out there in the background. This Outlook is Barry's last one live for a while, but he and guide dog Oyster will be back with us. But first, on Outlook this week, we're talking Maine and Boston, which is where we all were, for a week in July, and we're sharing a bit about our time away. We discuss the Drama Club Camp week together in an old inn in Maine, just what we did all week, and some about those whom we were there with. We also discuss duck tours, fresh sea food, and visiting Perkins during our 48 hours in Boston as we share (using some soundscape clips to break up the talking over one another because it was just such a meaningful experience for all of us). From the hugging area (a no sorry zone) to access checks, many so-called “coincidences” happened to us all while away. (Stay tuned for a deeper dive, like the one you could make off the side of a boat, into the creative and collaborative work we did in Maine.) This episode is dedicated to Toad and his recovery. So glad he's doing well. So pleased for Scott, Shannon (our hosts for the week),, and Toad's brother Frog. Check out more about Brian's band Fowler and the song “Frog and Toad Aren't Friends” which was one of his “coincidences”. We each had them: https://fowlercanada.bandcamp.com/track/frog-and-toad-arent-friends And learn more about Scott Ihrig on his official website: https://www.ihrig.com

How does one successfully launch a boutique dental practice in a saturated market like New York City? In this episode, we speak to, Dr. Arti Jagirdar, who shares her journey of establishing Flatiron Dental, a distinguished dental practice that offers more than just the basics. She offers a candid account of her decision to adopt a patient-centric, fee-for-service model and its subsequent impact on the practice. Dr. Jagirdar's unique offerings such as sleep apnea treatments and airway consultations have been key in differentiating Flatiron Dental in the bustling cityscape of New York.We also delve deeper into the nitty-gritty of setting up shop, from navigating lengthy lease negotiations to the vital role of legal consultations in contract signings. Dr. Jagirdar also recounts the unexpected challenge of a trademark battle over her practice's name, underlining the importance of resilience, legal advice, and the power of standing by your choices with integrity. Rounding up the conversation, we discuss the critical role of cultivating relationships and harnessing the power of word-of-mouth in attracting new patients to your practice, and how becoming a thought leader in the dental community can build a strong brand presence.What You'll Learn in This Episode:The importance of a unique service offering in a densely saturated marketInsights into the fee-for-service model in dentistryWhy never to sign a contract without a lawyer's approvalHow to handle unexpected challenge such as trademark disputesThe power of word-of-mouth and relationships in building a patient baseThe potential for thought leadership to strengthen your brandDon't miss this episode full of valuable insights from Dr. Jagirdar - it's brimming with lessons for anyone wanting to make their mark in a competitive market!‍‍Guest: Dr. Arti JagirdarPractice Name: Flatiron DentalCheck out Arti's Media:Website: https://www.flatirondentalnyc.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/flatirondental/Flatiron Dental Playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5qHLpjIikJHlEOVv3Y7dYY?si=5d09cbd507704653‍Other Mentions and Links:‍Podcasts:438: DR.
