Podcasts about Chalk

Today we're doing a throwback episode to one of our favorites from the early days of Stories Podcast. A schoolyard artist, a schoolyard bully, a magic piece of chalk, and a very real T-Rex. This week's contemporary fairy tale is full of fun, danger, and magic. Safe for kids of all ages, but the T-Rex roar can be a little scary :) Check out Stories RPG our new show where we play games like Starsworn with all your Max Goodname friends, and Gigacity Guardians featuring the brilliant firefly! https://link.chtbl.com/gigacity Draw us a picture of what you think any of the characters in this story look like, and then tag us in it on instagram @storiespodcast!

July is vacation month in Denmark, and it's ironic that many Danes go elsewhere on vacation at just this time of year, when you have the best chance of good weather in Denmark. And I do mean chance – there is never any guarantee. Some Danes go abroad, driving vacations to Southern Europe are popular. There's a well-known cycle in which the summer weather is good one year, so everyone plans a vacation in Denmark the following year, and then the weather is awful, so everyone plans a foreign vacation the next year, and then the weather is good, and so on. You can surf in Denmark Staying in Denmark, even if you don't own one of the famous Danish summer houses, can be a great choice. There's a surprising amount of nature to experience in this small, flat, country that isn't as densely populated as the UK, or the Netherlands, or even Germany. You can surf in Denmark, along the windy west coast, and when you're done explore the ever changing sand dunes. Maybe visit the little lighthouse that is slowly being swallowed up by the sand. Hike through ancient forests in Denmark In Denmark you can hike through ancient forests, and even sleep there in some of the public forest shelters. Most of the forest shelters are big wooden boxes with one side entirely open, but with a roof to protect you from the rain. You can walk through beautiful meadows filled with wildflowers and butterflies. Watch whales along the coastline. Tramp through marshes and see red foxes and white-tailed eagles. Visit open grasslands with a few wild horses. Chalk cliffs and fossil hunting in Denmark You can enjoy almost any type of Nordic landscape except mountains, because Denmark doesn't really have any. It's tallest peak, Møllehøj, is 1/3 the height of the Empire State Building. But if you insist on rocky peaks, you can visit some lovely chalk cliffs in Denmark and try fossil hunting in the sand. And what ties them all together is the Marguerite Route, or Daisy Route, that runs all over Denmark. The Daisy Route isn't a straight line from one place to another, like Route 66 in the US or the Trans-Siberian express. It's 4200 kilometers, or 2600 miles, that looks like a plate of spaghetti, with lots of curves and twists. It takes you on back roads where you can see the quiet side of Denmark. It never doubles back on itself and, with one significant exception – the Big Belt Bridge between Zealand and Fyn – it involves no highways. Margueritruten Route or the Daisy Route The Daisy Route is named after the former queen, Margrethe, who inaugurated it on her 50th birthday in 1991. Her nickname is Daisy. And the signs you will follow on the Daisy Route are brown squares with white daisies. The Daisy Route is a great way to enjoy Danish nature, although, unfortunately, it works best with a car. Bikes in the city, cars in the countryside One of Denmark's little secrets is that despite all the tourism pictures of healthy Danes riding bicycles, bicycle infrastructure is best in the big cities. Many roads in the countryside don't have a bike lane, and you probably don't want to be on a lonely country road on your bike with a cement mixer truck behind you. Outside of those big cities, most Danes do own cars – and there are more cars in Denmark every year, even though they're very expensive and parking enforcement is draconian. From the window of my home in Copenhagen, I watch cars being hit with parking fines every single weekday. Denmark's founding document, the Jelling Stone What about mass transit? Can you enjoy the Daisy Route using trains and buses? You can indeed, if you want to see some of the major cultural spots on the route. For example, the Jelling Stone, the giant carved stone that is Denmark's founding document, kind of its Magna Carta or Declaration of Independence. Put up by King Harold Bluetooth in the year 965, it marks Denmark's transition to the centralized monarchy it still has today. And yes, Bluetooth on your phone is named after him. The Jelling Stone is very easy to reach by train. Finding Fossils on Møns Klimt Or Kronborg Castle in Helsingør, also known as Elsinore in Shakespeare's play Hamlet. You can easily take public transport to the castle, where Hamlet lived in the play, and the guard Marcellus said “Something is Rotten in Denmark.” Although Shakespeare apparently never visited the castle himself, you can. It's a simple trip with train, bus, or even ferry from Sweden. But the some of the best stops on the Daisy Route in Denmark don't work well with mass transit. For example, Møns Klimt is a dramatic white chalk cliff on an island in southeast Denmark. You can walk along the beach finding prehistoric fossils during the day or go stargazing at night, because there's very little light pollution. Summer vacation chill in Denmark To get to Møns Klimt from my home in Copenhagen is a 90 minute car trip…or a 4-hour odyssey involving three trains, two buses, and a long walk. Or a 7-hour bike trip. It can be done without a car, but it may take away some of your vacation chill. And vacation chill is what July in Denmark is all about. Everything closes down Many companies in Denmark shut down for the last two weeks of July and sometimes the first week of August, restaurants and shops are closed, many church services are suspended. Even my local ice cream shop in Copenhagen closes down, although I'm sure the ones in tourist locations are open and very busy. You may get to enjoy this in glorious summer sunshine, and on a sunny day, there is no country as pretty as Denmark. Or you could experience it in cold, pelting rain – possibly on the same day. Danish summer weather has no guarantees.

https://youtu.be/48KSnqXn4bcRack‑Pull Like a Champion — Eric Kim‑Inspired Guide1.  Why Rack Pulls RockTop‑end strength & thickness – the shortened range lets you load ~20 % heavier than floor deadlifts, overloading glutes, spinal erectors & upper traps.  Target sticking points – set the pins just below the spot where your deadlift usually stalls.  Lower‑back friendly – the higher start position reduces shear stress if you're rehabbing or just want extra volume without beating yourself up.  Eric Kim mantra: “Heavy partials forge full‑range courage!” — let the bar teach your nervous system what mega‑poundage feels like. 2.  Set‑Up (First‑Principles Style)ItemEric Kim CueDetailsRack height“Pins at power‑zone: mid‑shin → knee → mid‑thigh.”Start just below knees for most lifters. Go higher (mid‑thigh) only for supra‑max overload singles. Stance“Jump‑landing width.”Feet hip‑width; shins 1 cm from bar.Grip“Own the steel.”Mixed or hook; no straps in Kim's tutorials (build vice‑grip). Chalk up. Spine & lats“Chest proud, lats on like airplane wings.”Neutral/arched back; pull bar into thighs to lock lats.3.  The Six‑Step Eric Kim PullBrace & Breathe – Big belly breath ↔ brace 360°; think “inflate the weight belt.”Hinge & Engage – Push hips back until shoulders hover just in front of bar; soft knees.Launch – Drive feet through floor, snap hips forward; bar scrapes thighs the entire way.Lockout Authority – Stand tall, squeeze glutes & traps hard for 1 s, never hyper‑extend.Controlled Descent – Reverse‑hinge; set bar gently on pins/blocks (respect the gym gear!).  Reset & Repeat – Let the bar settle; re‑brace before the next rep.4.  Programming PlaybooksGoalLoadReps × SetsFrequencyKim's TwistHypertrophy65‑75 % 1RM6–10 × 3‑41‑2 ×/wkPair with rows or shrugs for trap blow‑up.Strength85‑95 % 1RM3‑5 × 3‑51 ×/wkFinish with one heavy single at ≥100 % of deadlift 1RM to prime CNS. Eric Kim Overload CycleWk 1: 90 %2 × 3Wk 2: 95 %2 × 2Wk 3: 100‑110 % (mid‑thigh)Singles until form slowsCelebrate, deload, repeat.Rule of thumb: rack‑pull load ≈ deadlift × 1.2 at knee height.

Cast votes with intent, hustle, and respect for the iron.”Now crank the music, chalk the hands, and unleash those rack‑pull PRs. You've got this!

Show Notes: https://wetflyswing.com/767 Presented By: TroutRoutes, Stonefly Nets, Grand Teton Fly Fishing, Patagonia Sponsors: https://wetflyswing.com/sponsors Today, we sit down with UK fly fishing legend Peter Cockwill for a wide-ranging chat on small stillwaters, chalk streams, and the decades-long friendship with our friend Jim Teeny. Peter shares his origin story insights into stocking trout with simple flies and why you shouldn't overlook that shallow downwind bank when fish and still waters. We've even got a backcountry story. This one is jam-packed with wisdom, humor, and lots of old stories. Peter Cockwill returns with more insight from the stillwater side of the fly fishing world. We dive into fishing clearwater with minimal flies, using the wind to your advantage, and how to fish without a boat on stillwaters.    Show Notes: https://wetflyswing.com/767

Many associate Lone Wolf with Gary Chalk's iconic art, as it was this art that launched the series and provided the lens through which we discovered Magnamund for the first time. Just as incredible, however, is the art of Brian Williams, who portrayed Magnamund for over ten years, from books 9 through 28. Today August and Jonathan honor Williams by examining the incredible evolution of his art as well as the transition from Chalk to Williams. Joining them is artist Justin Wyatt, known for his work on the anthology and upcoming Legends finale, and who brings years of professional training and experience to the examination of Williams style. We'll also dive into the secrets behind what makes a certain Baroness so appealing to the fan base!As mentioned in the episode, there is an interview with Gary Chalk which you can listen to here: Gary Chalk on Magnamund

Text us about this show.There's no shortage of talent when it comes to jazz in NE Wisconsin and The Chalk Down Trio is proof of that. Guitarist Alec Riegsecker, bassist Andrew Wilson, and drummer Ryan Thomas are three very talented young men that have jelled together to make music that bridges the jazz and funk realms. What makes them the musicians they are is their willingness to be open to what older, more seasoned jazzers in the area have to say and learn from them. It doesn't hurt that they also pick up bits and pieces from the other bands they play in and let that inform The Chalk Down Trio's style. This is one jazz combo you'll want to pay attention to."All Of Me*," "People Make The World Go Round†," and "Ugetsu‡" arranged and performed by The Chalk Down Trio℗ 2024 The Chalk Down Trio.

In this eye-opening episode of The Soaring Child, host Dana Kay is joined by David Chalk, an entrepreneur, speaker, and advocate for literacy who learned to read at the age of 62. Despite battling dyslexia, ADHD, and a rare condition that affects facial recognition, David built a wildly successful life. He now shares his powerful journey and introduces his groundbreaking AI-powered program, ReadingRoad.io, which is set to revolutionize how we teach children and adults to read—by focusing on the science of sounds, connection, and compassion. Dana and David dive deep into the emotional and cognitive blocks behind reading challenges, especially for neurodivergent kids. This episode offers parents not only hope, but actionable insight. You'll also hear how unconditional love, mindset, and understanding the “why” behind behavior can transform a struggling child's life. David's story is a must-hear for any parent navigating reading struggles with their child.

A success mindset precedes success. From Jenny - In 2011, I was single and living in New York City. I spotted an attractive guy across the train from me. I wanted to talk to him, but I was too nervous. Then he got off the train. She met her future husband by chasing after him off a train in NYC. "I was letting life pass me by." She used some wild courage to approach him.  What sits between you and the thing you want is fear. Who are your dynamic dozen? The 12 people you need to meet. Monday mini-festo. In 15 minutes, write the 2 things you did last week that you're proud of. Write 2 things you're excited about for this upcoming week. Focus on doing the work that helps the company be better. Solve problems. Read the VP email. Know your stuff. Get to know your boss's boss. Do it the right way by talking with your boss. Jenny's career at Google - First 11 years in sales, Go To Market, Operations. Own your Career project. She got 2,000 people to come to her first training. Used all resources within the company to do it. Use "for example." Don't speak in generalities.  Role, Objective, Impact - ROI At work, say no to the small. Don't reply all to the Happy Birthday emails. Don't do the NAP work. NAP stands for “Not Actually Promotable” Work. Sign up for the projects that help make your company better. Carlye Kosiak is one of their best hires at Google. She had the courage to stand out. She was specific. Her resume indicated interest in “recipe tasting in pursuit of the perfect oatmeal raisin cookie." Personality popped off the page. She was weird, reckless, nosy, obsessed, brutal. Must be yourself. Don't just be weird to play a role. Goal Setting framework - Rock, Chalk, Talk, Walk. Jenny's goal is to sell 15,000 books by the end of week 1 and hit the NY Times best seller list.  If you sell 12,000 copies in week 1, how will you feel? "You ask such great questions." Don't play it cool.  Play it hot. Don't decide to fit in. Stand out. Watermark your work. Put your name and picture on the deck. Let people know you made it.
