In early 2023, Chris and Katie Wolf opened Wolf Pack Chorus, a bold, beautiful restaurant in the Little Italy neighborhood of Cleveland. It was intentionally different from the red sauce and meatball spots along Murray Hill, with a diverse menu and an upscale ambiance. After the struggle of the pandemic, it was kind of a celebration and a sign that things were back to normal and "finer dining" was here to stay. It was a "must dine" spot on all the lists for 2023.Two years in, the story changed. Chris had to make the difficult decision to close. It's all top easy for all of us on the outside to speculate and comment, which is why I asked Chris to share the story from his perspective. He talks about some of the hard decisions and how he faced the eventual reality of a closure and the ending of a long-held dream.This episode is presented with support from Edgewater Hospitality and Kate's Fish, at the West Side Market.

In this solo episode, Blake continues The Chorus in the Chaos series on the Ten Commandments with an in-depth look at the Sixth Commandment: “You shall not murder” (Exodus 20:13). While seemingly straightforward, this command carries deep theological and cultural implications. Blake explores: The biblical definition of murder vs. killing Why human life is sacred—rooted in the Imago Dei Scriptural contexts for justified killing: self-defense, war, and capital punishment How anger, jealousy, and hatred are precursors to murder The broader implications for issues like abortion, euthanasia, and suicide The Christian duty to not only to avoid murder but actively preserve life Jesus' teaching in Matthew 5 on heart sins and loving our enemies For a limited time, The Chorus in the Chaos listeners get 10% off their first purchase at Reformation Heritage Books!

"First you need to know there are no swear words in this show. It was this week back in the 60s when the FBI released a letter stating that there were no curse words in the song Louie Louie. But people keep looking. This is a list of songs that were banned or otherwise maligned because someone was sure the singer was cursing. But there was no curse word. It is a long list."

Listen along as Anthony continues our series through the book of Acts. Notes//Quotes: Acts 1:12-26 - Scott Reading Title: The Space Between “To clasp the hands in prayer is the beginning of an uprising against the disorder of the world.” - Karl Barth “One reason why the experiential reality of perceiving God is unfamiliar country today is that the pace and preoccupations of urbanized, mechanized, collectivized, secularized modern life are such that any sort of inner life... is very hard to maintain. To make prayer your life priority, as countless Christians of former days did outside as well as inside the monastery, is stupendously difficult in a world that runs you off your feet and will not let you slow down. And if you attempt it, you will certainly seem eccentric to your peers, for nowadays involvement in a stream of programmed activities is decidedly ‘in,' and the older ideal of a quiet, contemplative life is just as decidedly ‘out.' That there is widespread hunger today for more intimacy, warmth, and affection in our fellowship with God is clear... but the concept of Christian life as sanctified rush and bustle still dominates, and as a result the experiential side of Christian holiness remains very much a closed book.” - J.I. Packer “There are no more lots after the coming of the Holy Spirit. It's a shame isn't it? I mean life would be a lot easier if we just had to draw lots to know God's will, but evidently that's not how he wants it. The Spirit is who is in our hearts helps makes these things clear. One of my favorite prayers is, God will you make it so clear that there's no choice? I hate choice. Of the eighteen possible variations, just make seventeen go away will you, because I'm not real bright and I don't always get these things. I'm still hoping for casting lots to come back into use, but I'm not going to hold my breath.” - William Mounce “As much as modern Christians love to talk about successes, sometimes the failures of the church need airing.” - Holman Commentary {Verse 1} Free fall, feet off the ground A clean, white page, fresh snow, no sound Here as we wait, from dark to dawn New paths before us, the old is gone {Chorus 1} Unplug the lights, take down the tree The less we have, the less we need From Christmas night to New Year's Eve We bless the space that's in between We bless the space that's in between {Verse 2} December ends, make way for dreams Wait for the light to raise the spring Embrace it all from hope to doubt Like ocean waves washin' in and out {Chorus 2} Two roads apart, come close again Where do you stop? Where do I begin? Each year we learn more what it means We bless the space that's in between We bless the space that's in between {Bridge} We bless the seeds under the snow We bless the patience take it slow We bless the limits, bless the tears We bless the failures that brought us here {Verse 3} I wipe the frost the glass is cold Our dreams beneath the falling snow Be Thou my vision until I see And bless the space that's in between - Sandra McCracken & Josh Garrels O Almighty God, you pour out your spirit of grace and of supplication on all who desire it. Deliver us, when we draw near to you, from cold hearts and wandering minds, that with steady thoughts and kindled passion we may worship you in spirit and in truth; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. -adapted from the Book of Common Prayer

Susan Oxtoby: The Life and Career of Agnes Varda Susan Oxtoby. Photo: BAMPFA. Susan Oxtoby, Director of Film and Senior Film Curator at Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive (BAMPFA), discusses the work of the great Belgian-French film maker Agnes Varda (1928-2019) with host Richard Wolinsky. The first major biography of Agnes Varda, A Complicated Passion: The Life and Work of Agnes Varda by Carrie Rickey, was published in 2024 and will come out in paperback on August 12, 2025. Agnes Varda began her career as a stills photographer and became a director with La Point Courte (1954), having seen very few films in her life. She went on to international fame with Cleo from 5 to 7 and Vagabond, but her late life films The Beaches of Agnes and Faces, Places established her as one of the most important directors of the modern era. All the films discussed in this interview (except the recent documentary Viva Varda!) are available to stream on the Criterion app, save for Faces, Places, which can be streamed on Kanopy. Cleo from 5 to 7 can also be streamed on Max Complete Interview. Book Interview/Events and Theatre Links Note: Shows may unexpectedly close early or be postponed due to actors' positive COVID tests.

Friend of the podcast Kathy Biehl joins the guys to explore Groucho's only two produced scripts, the 1937 film "The King and the Chorus Girl", and the 1948 play "Time for Elizabeth" - which was later adapted for TV, featuring himself in the lead role. The crew delves into how these collaborations with Norman Krasna mark a conscious shift from Groucho's signature humor, pondering what might have driven him to this new direction. They'll guess which lines bear Groucho's unmistakable stamp, and weigh in on his acting chops in Elizabeth. By the end, you'll have the answer to the big question: Did Groucho need the funny?
