Podcasts about Colosseum

In the late 160s AD, the Roman armies of Marcus Aurelius recruited large numbers of troops from the islands east of Jutland, in what is now Denmark. After Marcus' death in 180, his German campaigns were abandoned and the Romans withdrew to the Danube. Some of the demobilised troops returned north and ‘revolutionised their cultural world', as Michael Kulikowski wrote recently in the LRB, ‘by adapting the lessons they had learned in Roman service'. On this episode, Michael joins Tom to discuss his review of an ‘extraordinary book' by Dagfinn Skre, ‘which gives Scandinavia an ancient history for the very first time'. There is no written record of the period, ‘no text to impose its tyranny of words', but the proxy evidence – coins, arms, stones, seeds – ‘converges on the existence of a late second-century watershed that produced a complete transformation in Scandinavian society in response to interaction with Rome'. Whether or not a pair of polar bears made it to the Colosseum, however, remains an open question.

The cruise may have been the main event, but the adventures before and after were just as memorable! Lauren and her husband Rich share all about the pre-cruise stay in Rome — from the Trevi Fountain, Colosseum, Vatican and Pantheon to the hotel, amazing Italian food and, of course, plenty of espresso martinis! Then it's time to talk Barcelona, where the post-cruise fun continued with a great hotel stay, delicious food, sangria, Park Güell and the incredible La Sagrada Família. We're covering what we saw, where we stayed, what we ate and drank, what we loved, and our tips for adding extra days in Rome and Barcelona to your Mediterranean cruise vacation. Because sometimes the best parts of a cruise vacation happen before you board and after you get off the ship!

In this episode of the WGI Unleashed Podcast, hosts Dan and Katie head down to our Miami office to sit down with Pablo Dominguez, a geomaticist in our Geospatial group! If you ask Pablo what he'd be doing if he weren't surveying, he'll tell you archeology without hesitating. He's stood at the Colosseum and at the pyramids in Giza, and the History Channel runs on a loop at his house, much to his wife's dismay. Spend an hour with him, and you'll start to notice that Land Surveying and Archeology are two jobs that are closer than they sound. Salt Life: Growing Up in Miami Pablo was born in Guatemala and moved to Miami at five. He draws a distinction most Floridians will recognize right away. Inland kids grow up on lakes and ponds. Miami kids grow up on boats and piers. Pablo is firmly the second kind. He and his friends would ride from the inner city out toward Miami Beach, ducking into hotel pools along the way until security ran them off. Then they'd keep going to the bridges and jump in. Swim, climb out, ride back, repeat. He remembers a version of the neighborhood that's mostly gone now. You always knew where everybody was, because every bike on the block was dumped in the same front yard.... Second-Generation Surveyor The career came from his father, a licensed surveyor with his own firm. Pablo went out to the field with him as a kid and held the other end of the chain. As Pablo tells it, his dad had just started a business, needed free labor, and there he was. Everything got written down by hand back then, page after page of field books. Then Pablo started picking up work with bigger firms and saw transits wired to data collectors, recording every measurement as the crew took it. That was the hook. He enrolled at Miami Dade College without much of a plan, but work kept getting in the way. Run the crew. Here's a promotion. Here's a raise. Eventually he let the degree go and took weekend courses in surveying and AutoCAD instead. A Year of Phone Calls WGI found him through Alvin Santiago in our Orlando office, a friend and former coworker who wouldn't stop talking about the place. Alvin put him in touch with Roberto Montecon here in Miami. WGI made an offer. Pablo said no... They kept calling. For a year. What got him in the end wasn't the pitch; it was the conversations around it, the ones where people asked about his kids and how his family was doing. He finally said yes. Almost three years later, he's still here. The Work: Drones, Crews, and Whatever Comes Up Pablo doesn't know what he'll be working on when he walks into the office each day. Geospatial is his home base. He also helps run WGI's UAV program out of Miami with Alvin, alongside Javaro Hampton, Carlos Sotolongo, and Eric Pryor. Drone work comes in from all over Florida, and the team sorts it by who's closest and who's the right fit for the site. The rest of his week goes to people. He oversees the field and office technicians, trains and mentors both, and works alongside Eduardo Asavache, who recently got licensed under Roberto's mentorship. His peers like to tell him he's a jack of many trades and a master of nothing. Pablo repeats the first half and lets the second half go.... His favorite WGI project so far took him to Puerto Rico, collecting data for project manager Randy Ortega. He'd never been to the island and pictured it flat. It is not flat... The terrain turned the flights into a real problem to solve, which is exactly why bringing back clean data felt so good. Dan and Pablo first met at WGI's management training out in Austin. What stuck with Pablo is that you never ask someone to do a job you wouldn't do yourself. Treat a crew well, and they'll stay the extra hour to finish the job. The Closest Thing to Archeology Back to the archeology, because it shows up in the work more than you'd expect. At one of the firms he worked for, crews would pull the old field books for an area before heading back out to a site. One of them stopped Pablo cold. A crew chief had gone out to survey acres of land and never finished, because the locals ran him off the property. He wrote it down, closed the book, and it sat there for decades waiting for someone to read it. The everyday version is quieter. Pablo takes a reference book out to a site, hunts for a monument someone set fifty years ago, and digs until he finds it. Proving that old work still holds is about as close to archeology as a Tuesday gets. Life Outside the Office Pablo has been married 20 years and has four kids, ages 28, 26, 15, and 13. His daughter shares his birthday. All four still live at home, which he pins on the housing market and doesn't seem too bothered by. Being a devout family man, having everyone close is the ideal circumstance. He had two miniature dachshunds for 16 years and hasn't been ready to replace them, though he thinks a rescue dog is getting close. In the meantime, a stray kitten wandered onto his porch three years ago and never left. She's a Dominguez now. A second stray recently had a kitten in his backyard, and Pablo is looking for a home for her, so consider this the announcement. Tune In Pablo brought the energy to this one. He also beat both hosts at Two Truths and a Lie, which almost never happens, and closed things out with an Arnold Schwarzenegger impression that Katie hasn't stopped talking about since.

Harry Sidebottom explores the world of Roman gladiators, describing the Colosseum as a building that reinforced social hierarchy through strictly assigned seating. The day's events began with a stylized procession representing Roman dominance over nature and foreign lands. Sidebottom highlights Emperor Commodus, who was genuinely obsessed with fighting in the arena, a choice that earned him animosity from the Senate. The schedule included beast hunts in the morning and gruesome midday executions of criminals, which were often staged as mythological plays. While some scholars view the martyrdom of Christians like Perpetua as literary propaganda, Sidebottom details the intense physical strain and strict rules enforced by referees during paired combat. The gladiatorial games eventually disappeared in the fifth century as the cultural and moral outlook of Rome shifted. (6)

Extreme heatwaves are becoming more frequent across the globe, not only in countries used to cooler climates, but also in those already familiar with significantly hotter temperatures. Intense heat can have an impact on the human body, from heat stroke to dehydration to skin damage. Economies can suffer as drought conditions impact farming communities. Built up urban areas can exacerbate the temperatures caused by heatwaves. And it can further expose already existing inequalities in society. There is advice out there on how to protect ourselves. There are tried and tested models of sustainable farming. Some urban spaces are being redesigned to accommodate heat extremes, and some major cities are taking action to address the imbalances caused by extreme heat. But do they all go far enough? On this week's Inquiry we're asking, ‘Can we live with extreme heat?'Contributors: Prof Ollie Jay, director of Heat and Health Research Centre, University of Sydney, Australia Lindiwe Majele Sibanda, animal scientist, chairperson of the Council of the National University of Science & Technology, Zimbabwe Winston Chow, co-chair, IPPC Working Group II, professor of urban climate, Singapore Management University Diana Liverman, professor of geography, University of Arizona, Tuscon, USA(Photo: Two people walking with blue umbrellas to protect themselves from the sun in front of the Colosseum in Rome, Italy.

This week, I pulled my husband in to do a full recap of our family trip to Italy at the end of May. We were there for 15 days with our two kids (17 and 19 at the time), and honestly, a month later I'd hop on a plane back in a heartbeat. We cover everything: how we planned it, how we paid for it, what we'd do differently, and the real, unfiltered truth about what it's like to travel as a family of four for two weeks straight. In this episode, we talk about: How we used credit card points to cover four flights and how we scored a last-minute premium cabin upgrade for all of us for about $3,000 The difference between staying in hotels vs. Airbnbs, and why Airbnbs won for us every time Why we'd skip the Amalfi next time (controversial, I know) and where we wish we'd spent more days The hidden charges at Italian restaurants that caught us off guard  How we average 20,000–30,000 steps a day and why getting lost on foot is genuinely one of the best travel strategies Why we booked the Colosseum and Vatican three months out Our honest take on Naples  What it means to raise kids who know how to travel    Let's dive in!

Vulcan is back, and the smoke is officially clearing.

A Sunday morning sermon by Pastor Brett Deal.In the early church there was a man named Ignatius (30-107 AD). He devoted his life to the way of Jesus, was discipled by John, and served as the bishop of Antioch. In his final years, as a living witness to the rule and reign of Jesus, Ignatius was condemned by the Roman Emperor Trajan. In chains, he was brought to Rome to be executed, torn apart by wild beasts in the Colosseum. On his way to Rome, he wrote seven letters—just like his mentor John—to the churches. In all his letters, he knows many probably knew him better by his nickname, Theophorus. Between his name and nickname, we find an excellent example of what it means to be a disciple on the way to Pentecost! Ignatius means “fiery one.” It describes a burning ardor and passion (Mark 3.17)! His nickname, Theophorus, means “God-bearer.” This fiery one burned bright with the indwelling presence of God in his life!Deep calling to deep, this God-bearing servant rejoiced in his letter to the Ephesians because when they heard he was arrested, they hurried to his side to encourage and pray with him. With his final days, Ignatius “Theophorus” continued to lift up a name above all names, Jesus our Christ. He echoed Peter on Pentecost, exalting the name of Jesus, the One “attested by God with mighty works and wonders and signs God did through Him” who “was crucified and killed by lawless men” (Acts 2.22-23). Facing his own martyrdom, Ignatius knew his life was secure because the Eternal Lord of Life is the Almighty God who raised Jesus from the grave, “loosing the pangs of death, because it was not possible for Him to be held by it” (2.24). For this reason, the Pentecost fire in Ignatius' heart was not quenched as he was paraded “in chains for the sake of our common name and hope.” This persecution only served as a witness to the “faith in and love of Christ Jesus” in which we are truly held.Beloved, on our way to Pentecost, may we hold dear Ignatius' words, that we should “in every way glorify Jesus Christ, who glorified you, so that you, joined together in a united obedience… may be sanctified.”

A gladiator named Diodorus defeated his opponent Demetrius in the arena, accepted his submission, discarded his own helmet and shield, and reached for the palm branch that marked his victory. Then the referee refused to honor the submission and ordered the fight to continue. Diodorus was killed. His tombstone, which survives, reads: "Murderous Fate and the cunning treachery of the referee killed me, and leaving the light, I have gone to Hades." Another gladiator named Urbicus, who had once spared a defeated opponent and was later killed by that same man in a rematch, left behind the most chilling last words in Roman history: "I advise that he who defeats a man should kill him." Today's guest is Harry Sidebottom, author of *Those Who Are About to Die: A Day in the Life of a Roman Gladiator*. Structured as a single twenty-four-hour cycle from the gladiators' last supper through the morning beast hunts, midday executions, and afternoon combat, Sidebottom's book dismantles almost everything Hollywood has taught us about the arena. We discuss why gladiators were deliberately fattened on barley stew so their subcutaneous fat would produce spectacular bleeding from non-fatal wounds, how Roman senators kept illegally sneaking into gladiatorial schools despite repeated bans stretching across two centuries, why the Colosseum was built on top of Nero's artificial lake using plunder from the sack of Jerusalem, and how Galen pioneered human surgery by first vivisecting a live monkey and then treating wounded gladiators at Pergamum. We also look at why epileptics drank gladiator blood as medicine (and why Roman doctors reluctantly admitted it might work), how twenty-nine Saxon prisoners strangled each other without a rope rather than fight, and why Constantine did not actually abolish gladiatorial combat despite what every Christian source claims.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

VOV1 - Dưới tác động của hiện tượng “vòm nhiệt” cực đoan, đợt nắng nóng gay gắt đầu mùa hè năm 2026 đang càn quét trên diện rộng, biến phần lớn khu vực Tây và Trung Âu thành một "chảo lửa" khổng lồ với mức nhiệt kỷ lục, đe dọa nghiêm trọng đến đời sống, hạ tầng và kinh tế toàn châu lục. Tại Pháp, nắng nóng kéo dài đã làm biến dạng đường ray khiến hàng chục chuyến tàu bị hủy bỏ, nhiều trường học phải tạm thời cho học sinh nghỉ học. Nguy cơ cháy rừng cũng đang bùng phát ở mức báo động đỏ tại các thảm thực vật khô cằn vùng Địa Trung Hải. Về mặt kinh tế, Thống đốc Ngân hàng Trung ương Pháp, Emmanuel Moulin, cảnh báo các đợt sóng nhiệt lặp đi lặp lại sẽ làm suy giảm năng suất lao động đáng kể và đè nặng lên các hoạt động kinh tế trung hạn của khu vực, dù nhu cầu tiêu thụ năng lượng, như làm mát, đang tăng vọt.Thủ tướng Pháp Sebastien Lecornu đã phải triệu tập cuộc họp khủng hoảng cấp bộ trưởng khi cơ quan khí tượng Météo France đặt hơn 60 tỉnh vào trạng thái cảnh báo cam (mức nguy hiểm thứ hai). Nhiệt độ tại Paris và các vùng lân cận chạm ngưỡng 39°C - 40°C, đi kèm độ ẩm cao khiến nhiệt độ cảm nhận thực tế lên tới 44°C. Chính quyền Paris đã phải ra lệnh mở cửa các công viên xuyên đêm để người dân giải nhiệt, đồng thời hạn chế bán đồ uống có cồn trong lễ hội âm nhạc Fête de la Musique do lo ngại rủi ro sức khỏe khi kết hợp giữa rượu và sốc nhiệt. Anh Nicolas Thames, người dân Pháp nhấn mạnh nhu cầu được ra ngoài và tìm nơi hạ nhiệt:“Ở trong nhà nhiệt độ rất nhanh lên tới hơn 30°C, còn ở đây chúng tôi đang ở trong bóng râm, lại có chút gió. Chỉ cần nhảy xuống nước là cơ thể lập tức hạ nhiệt, nên lúc này tôi thấy rất dễ chịu.”Các thành phố lớn ở miền Bắc và miền Trung Italy lần đầu tiên trong năm ghi nhận mức nhiệt chạm mốc 40°C. Tại thủ đô Rome, hoạt động tham quan của du khách tại các địa danh như Đấu trường Colosseum biến thành một cuộc thử thách sức bền khi mọi người phải xếp hàng dài dưới nắng và đổ xô tìm các bóng râm hoặc vòi nước công cộng.Cơ quan khí tượng Đức (DWD) phát báo động nhiệt độ trên diện rộng khi mức nhiệt áp sát 38°C. Sự kết hợp giữa không khí nóng và độ ẩm cao còn làm tăng nguy cơ kích hoạt các trận giông bão dữ dội, mưa đá và lũ cục bộ vào cuối tuần.Thị trấn Schaffhausen ở phía bắc Thụy Sĩ vừa ghi nhận mức nhiệt tháng 6 cao nhất trong lịch sử là 35,7°C. Trong khi đó, dù nằm tách biệt hơn, Anh và xứ Wales cũng vừa trải qua mùa xuân ấm nhất lịch sử và đang đối mặt với mức nhiệt dự báo lên tới 34°C ở khu vực Đông Nam. Bà Hanna Morgan, một người dân chia sẻ:“Đúng là trời rất nóng. Tôi chỉ cố gắng giữ cho mình mát mẻ, bật quạt liên tục và thật sự mong sớm được đến văn phòng có điều hòa.”Các chuyên gia cảnh báo châu Âu đang nóng lên với tốc độ nhanh gần gấp đôi so với mức trung bình của toàn cầu. Hiện tượng biến đổi khí hậu cùng sự xuất hiện của chu kỳ El Niño mạnh trong năm 2026 đang khiến các đợt thiên tai này đến sớm và khốc liệt hơn./.Anh Tuấn /VOV-ParisChính quyền Paris đã phải ra lệnh mở cửa các công viên xuyên đêm để người dân giải nhiệt - Ảnh: Reuters

Dolly Parton Biography Flash a weekly Biography. Dolly Parton has spent the past few days doing what she does best at 80 years old: controlling the narrative with a wink, a joke, and a serious work ethic. After a wave of online speculation about her health, fueled in part by a heartfelt Facebook post from her sister Freida asking fans to pray for her, Dolly jumped onto social media to shut down the rumors herself. In a recent Instagram video, covered by outlets including People and shared widely by fan accounts, she reassured everyone that she is alive, still working, and in her words, “I ain't dead yet,” turning concern into classic Dolly humor. That clip, and the fan relief around it, is likely to become a notable moment in the late chapter of her biography, marking the point where she personally calmed a global scare about her health and reasserted her public presence. At the same time, Dolly's long-game business and legacy moves continue to unfold. Ticket platforms like SeatGeek and official venue listings are still prominently pushing her limited six show Las Vegas residency, “Dolly: Live in Las Vegas,” scheduled for December 4, 6, 7, 10, 12, and 13, 2025 at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace. Those dates, repeatedly highlighted in current ticket promotions, show how her team is still treating Dolly as a marquee live draw with carefully curated appearances rather than a full tour, a biographically important shift into legacy-artist territory. On the orchestral front, listings from the Kauffman Center and other venues are promoting “Dolly Parton's Threads: My Songs in Symphony,” a concert experience built around her catalog where Dolly herself does not appear in person. This symphonic branding underscoring her songwriting rather than just her performing suggests a long-term strategy: keeping Dolly's music in high-art circulation even when she is not on stage, reinforcing her status as a composer whose work outlives any touring schedule. In the broader media ecosystem, Dolly remains a constant reference point. Recent entertainment podcasts, like a new “Dolly Parton crashes a radio show” throwback mini-episode on Entertainment Wrap Up, are keeping her classic media moments in rotation, while fan pages and news blurbs continue to resurface milestones like the original 1974 release of “I Will Always Love You.” Those throwbacks, amplified by TikTok clips from Dolly's official account revisiting the HBO special “Dolly in Concert,” help cement the archival side of her story, reintroducing younger audiences to peak-era Dolly. Finally, business coverage remains interested in Dolly's branded ventures such as her “Cup of Ambition” coffee line, reported by outlets like AOL as inspired by her “9 to 5” persona. While that specific product is not new in the last few days, it's still being cited as a textbook example of how Dolly converts her own mythology into merchandise and lifestyle branding, a key thread in any modern biography of her empire-building. There are currently no credible reports from major outlets of new health crises, surprise albums, or abrupt career changes in the last 24 hours. Any scattered social media rumors beyond what her sister posted appear unverified and should be treated as speculation unless confirmed by Dolly's official channels or reputable news organizations.

 EPISODE DESCRIPTION In this episode, I sit down with Prakash Kamraj, co-founder of DeCharge Network, to explore one of the most overlooked intersections of Web3 and the physical world: EV charging infrastructure. Prakash walks me through how DeCharge is building an Airbnb-style model for EV chargers, where anyone , from a business owner to a crypto community member , can host a charging station and earn passive income from it. We dig into why the B2B market is the real engine of EV growth, how DeCharge keeps the user experience dead simple with a scan-and-pay web app, and why autonomous charging powered by crypto payment rails could be the next massive wave. We also get into the surprising EV adoption stories across India, China, Southeast Asia, Ethiopia, and beyond. Whether you're an EV owner frustrated by fragmented charging apps, a crypto builder looking for real-world use cases, or an investor trying to spot where energy infrastructure is heading, this conversation is packed with sharp thinking and hard-won lessons from the ground up. DISCLAIMERNothing mentioned in this podcast is investment advice and please do your own research.

Julius Zebra belandt in het oude Rome en moet vechten in het Colosseum! Een grappig en spannend luisterboek, mét geluidseffecten die het avontuur tot leven brengen. Uitgegeven door Luitingh Sijthoff Spreker: Bas Westerweel

Phil's perfectly timed movie blooper at the Colosseum gives the guys a hilarious opening to a much bigger point: empires rise, empires fall, but Christ's kingdom never shakes. Al, Zach, John Luke, and Christian connect ancient Rome's paganism to modern America's idols, from power and politics to screens and the new “religions” people build around personal freedom. Through Rome's ruins, modern America's chaos, and the steady faith of the early church, the guys point back to the kingdom of God as the only power that survives every age. In this episode: Daniel 7; Hebrews 12; Daniel 2; 1 John; 2 John; 3 John; Joshua 24, verse 15; 1 Thessalonians; Matthew 5. Today's conversation is about Lesson 9 of Ancient Christianity taught by visiting Hillsdale Professor of History Kenneth Calvert. Take the course with us at no cost to you! Sign up at http://unashamedforhillsdale.com/. More about Ancient Christianity: Christ entered the world during the reign of Caesar Augustus. The tensions between Christianity and the Roman Empire shaped the daily practice of the Christian faith and led many Romans to distrust and persecute the early Christians. But Christianity also benefitted from the Roman world. And when Rome collapsed in the West, Christianity provided the hope for preserving civilization. In this free, eleven-lecture course, Professor Kenneth Calvert will explore: How the Jewish, Greek, and Roman cultures all contributed to preparing the world to hear the Gospel. Why many Romans distrusted and persecuted the early Christians. The inspiring stories of Christ, His apostles, and faithful ones throughout the first four centuries of Christianity. The arguments of key early Christian apologists—Ignatius, Irenaeus, Justin, Athanasius, and more—who defended and defined the Christian faith amidst the animosity of the Roman world. The conversion of Constantine and how he brought stability to Rome, and how the rivalry between his sons almost returned Rome to paganism. How Augustine's writings helped preserve the message of Christianity during the collapse of the Roman Empire in the West. You will discover the uncertainties, trials, and triumphs of the earliest Christians as they confronted controversies within the faith and persecutions from outside it.

Dolly Parton Biography Flash a weekly Biography. Dolly Parton remains as busy and influential as ever, with the last few days offering a snapshot of how her brand, legacy, and philanthropy keep expanding even as she steps back from constant touring. The most visible development fans can touch right now is the new Kendra Scott x Dolly Parton pop up at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum Store in Nashville, running June 5 and 6, where visitors can shop the latest Dolly inspired jewelry and merch. According to the Country Music Hall of Fame event listing, this collaboration is another brick in the growing empire of Dolly themed lifestyle products, underscoring how her image now anchors a premium, cross generational fashion brand as much as a music catalog. Looking slightly further ahead but making news in recent days, Ticketmaster is spotlighting Dolly Live in Las Vegas, a major one night only event scheduled for late September 2026 at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace. While details of the production are still emerging, the official listing positions it as a tentpole live appearance, significant from a biographical standpoint because Dolly has largely moved away from regular touring. A high profile Las Vegas show signals a pivot toward curated, legacy affirming live experiences rather than the grind of the road, reinforcing her status as an icon who can command destination events on her own terms. On the philanthropic front, Dolly Partons Imagination Library continues to generate fresh coverage, particularly in the United Kingdom. The official Imagination Library site is currently highlighting how the program is helping UK public libraries thrive, emphasizing that regular free books for children are pulling families into local libraries and strengthening community literacy efforts. That sort of sustained, global reach suggests the Imagination Library may ultimately become as central to her life story as her music, framing Dolly not only as a country legend but as one of the most consequential literacy advocates of her era. In the personal realm, American Songwriter recently revisited her 60 year love story with her late husband Carl Dean, noting that he died in March 2025 at age 82 and that Dolly has said she believes he is waiting for her and has no plans to remarry. That reflection, amplified again in the last few days by anniversary coverage, adds emotional context to this phase of her biography: Dolly is a widow honoring a private, six decade marriage while very publicly broadening her cultural and business footprint. No major scandals, health crises, or verified social media controversies involving Dolly Parton have surfaced in reputable outlets in the past 24 hours. Any online chatter about surprise tours, new full length studio albums, or drastic career shifts remains speculative and unconfirmed; until Dolly or her official channels announce otherwise, those rumors should be treated as fan wish lists, not facts.

Building like the Romans nowadays is a bit tricky for a few reasons. First off, we've got way fancier tech and materials than they did back in the day. Our construction methods have moved on, you know? Plus, we're big on safety and the environment these days, so our building codes are a bit more uptight than what the Romans had going on. Trying to recreate massive Roman structures, like the Colosseum, might be a logistical nightmare with all the modern red tape. And let's face it, times have changed – we've got different tastes and vibes when it comes to architecture. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Full Text of Readings Friday of the Second Week of Easter Lectionary: 271 The Saint of the day is Saint Benedict Joseph Labre Saint Benedict Joseph Labre's Story Benedict Joseph Labre was truly eccentric, one of God's special little ones. Born in France and the eldest of 18 children, he studied under his uncle, a parish priest. Because of poor health and a lack of suitable academic preparation he was unsuccessful in his attempts to enter the religious life. Then, at age 16, a profound change took place. Benedict lost his desire to study and gave up all thoughts of the priesthood, much to the consternation of his relatives. He became a pilgrim, traveling from one great shrine to another, living off alms. He wore the rags of a beggar and shared his food with the poor. Filled with the love of God and neighbor, Benedict had special devotion to the Blessed Mother and to the Blessed Sacrament. In Rome, where he lived in the Colosseum for a time, he was called “the poor man of the Forty Hours devotion” and “the beggar of Rome.” The people accepted his ragged appearance better than he did. His excuse to himself was that “our comfort is not in this world.” On April 16, 1783, the last day of his life, Benedict dragged himself to a church in Rome and prayed there for two hours before he collapsed, dying peacefully in a nearby house. Immediately after his death, the people proclaimed him a saint. Benedict Joseph Labre was canonized by Pope Leo XIII in 1881. His liturgical feast is celebrated on April 16. Saint Benedict Joseph Labre: Pray for us! Reflection In a modern inner city, one local character kneels for hours on the sidewalk and prays. Swathed in his entire wardrobe winter and summer, he greets passersby with a blessing. Where he sleeps no one knows, but he is surely a direct spiritual descendant of Benedict, the ragged man who slept in the ruins of Rome's Colosseum. These days we ascribe such behavior to mental illness; Benedict's contemporaries called him holy. Holiness is always a bit mad by earthly standards.Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media

In this episode, Kimberly and Tommaso celebrate five years and 210 episodes of their podcast. They reflect on their journey and share a two-day adventure in Rome, exploring hidden gems and unique experiences off the usual tourist path. Key Points: Five Years of Kimberly's Italy: Kimberly and Tommaso mark the fifth anniversary of their first episode, launched on April 13, 2021. They recall starting the podcast during COVID, with Tommaso convincing Kimberly to overcome her initial hesitations about her voice. The most rewarding aspect has been connecting with listeners globally, who share their appreciation for the episodes. Important Travel Updates: The EES Situation Kimberly shares recent experiences with the EU's Entry-Exit System (EES), noting it is slow and chaotic at most airports. She advises adding 45 minutes to an hour to estimated arrival times and avoiding connections in Schengen countries less than two hours apart. Tommaso recounts an incident at Linate Airport where 100 passengers missed their flight due to EES delays. Navigating Rome Off the Map: Kimberly and Tommaso spend 48 hours exploring Rome beyond major landmarks like the Colosseum, Vatican, and Trevi Fountain. They emphasize discovering the city's authentic character by exploring smaller, less-traveled streets. Monti: A Local Roman Neighborhood: They stay in Monti, a less-touristy neighborhood northeast of the Colosseum, describing it as steep, narrow, and lived-in. Kimberly considers Monti more authentic than Trastevere, which has become overly crowded. Hidden Artistic and Historical Treasures: Kimberly visits the Basilica di San Pietro in Vincoli, home to Michelangelo's Moses sculpture, noting its magnificence and free entry. They stumble upon a workshop where a craftsman restores antique frames, engaging in a dying art form. They discover a building covered in sgraffito, a Renaissance wall decoration technique. A Birthday in Rome: For Kimberly's birthday, the itinerary includes exploring churches and meandering through the city. They encounter large crowds near the Pantheon due to Easter week, reminding listeners to consider the Easter holiday when planning spring trips. They visit San Louis des Français, admiring its intricate gold leaf and design. The “Flowers” Exhibit at Chiostro del Bramante: Kimberly and Tommaso visit an exhibition spanning centuries of art, from Renaissance to AI, all centered around flowers and the role they play in ecology. The exhibit includes immersive installations, film, painting, sculpture, and photography, with a notable display of bees building honeycomb on a mold of Emperor Hadrian's face. The Apple Store at Palazzo Marignoli: They visit the Apple Store in Palazzo Marignoli, a beautifully renovated 1870s palace. The store features restored 1900s ceiling paintings and an original ballroom used for concerts, blending history with modern design. An interior courtyard with camphor trees pays tribute to a historic monastery, making the store a highlight of their trip. A Memorable Birthday Dinner: Based on a recommendation from their hotel bartender, they dine at a local osteria. Tommaso mentions Kimberly's birthday to the owner, leading to an abundance of extra dishes. The evening concludes with a surprise birthday dessert and the entire restaurant singing “Happy Birthday.” Join Kimberly and Tommaso in this episode as they share realistic travel advice and authentic experiences from their Roman adventure, celebrating five years of podcasting, and making new memories.

This week the guys dip back into Marrou, where the author pivots like Yaxel Lendeborg to the Roman side of things. H.I. takes up the "Old Roman Education". Immediately we notice realities that put the lie to the loose notion that the Romans just took from the Greeks and changed the names. While, yes, eventually much of Roman education merges with the Hellenistic ideals explored earlier (and later) tome-wise, at its root, Roman education was fundamentally a different enterprise. Much more than the Greeks, the Roman centered their approach around tradition, the state, and the family. Mos maiorum reigned supreme. The “noble peasant” ideal (even if later on you lived in a high-rise next to the Colosseum and sipped cocktails with your Greek besties) is there at the beginning and never fully disappears. The chief lesson? Even if you show up with an army of Volsci ready to overthrow the state, you still gotta listen to your momma.
