What a joy it was to welcome so many kids to our VBS this week! As they built, crafted, and explored together, they discovered an even greater truth from Ephesians 2:10—that each one of us has been intentionally crafted by Christ for His purposes. Throughout the week, they learned the story of Scripture: God created us to be with Him, sin separated us from Him, we could never fix that separation on our own, but Jesus came to do what we never could by dying and rising again to restore us to God. - Pastor Ben Key Verse: Ephesians 2:10 (NIV) - "For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do." For this week's Scripture and notes: http://bible.com/events/49627413
Among the unique artifacts held in the collections of the Auschwitz Memorial are fairy tales created while the camp was in operation. Crafted out of a heartfelt need, and in the hope of leaving behind a trace of their authors, these stories were smuggled out the camp. Their creators were prisoners employed in the camp's Construction Office. With the help of people on the outside, they passed these fairy tales on to their loved ones. The story behind the fairy tales from Auschwitz is told by Jadwiga Kulasza, a retired employee of the Memorial Archives, as well as family members of the authors: Felicjan Świerczyna, son of Bernard Świerczyna, and Andrzej Czulda, son of Henryk Czulda.=====Voiceovers: Greg Littlefield, Michael Takiff, Kate Weinrieb

Jean Motell – Ski nautique (Canicule Edit) [The Analog Lounge] "Je n'irai pas chez le psy... je préfère le ski nautique." Dive headfirst into "Mode Nautique" with this exclusive Canicule Edit. Jean Motell delivers a hypnotic, retro-chic anthem where the sharp irony of a psychological breakaway meets the absolute glamour of the 1970s French Riviera. Driven by an intoxicating vocal hook that rejects therapy in favor of speed and saltwater, the track literally submerges itself during heavily filtered underwater breaks before resurfacing under a blazing, mid-summer sun. Locked at our signature 108 BPM tempo, this session fuses a heavy analog Moog bassline, vintage disco-funk guitar licks, and warm tape saturation that gives the mix its humid, sun-drenched, and premium texture. The Track Profile: The Scene: A vintage Riva Super Aquarama cutting through the waves at full throttle, black acetate sunglasses, a chilled cocktail sweating on the teak deck, and the sudden urge to leave it all behind to stay underwater. The Sound: Nostalgic French Touch, analog disco-funk grooves, subaquatic low-pass filters, and deep electronic warmth. The Destination: Somewhere between Saint-Tropez and Lake Como during a massive summer heatwave. [ Stream the Full Session on SoundCloud / Apple Podcasts ] ⚓ The Ultimate Jet-Set Nautical Essential: An analog mix this rich in subaquatic frequencies and texturized details shouldn't be wasted on standard smartphone speakers. Whether you are commanding the deck of a private yacht, in transit first-class over the Atlantic, or lounging by an infinity pool, flawless acoustic isolation is mandatory. To capture every single filter sweep and the raw roundness of this "Canicule Edit," discover the pinnacle of high-fidelity portable audio: the Bang & Olufsen Beoplay H95 headphones. Crafted with custom titanium drivers and ultra-soft lambskin leather ear cushions, they offer elite active noise cancellation and studio-grade definition to cut you off from the world... and let you hide underwater, too.
Crafted by a composer and a terrible lizard.This episode covers the musically-inspired narrative adventure developed by Beethoven & Dinosaur and published by Annapurna Interactive.

That knowledge should prepare you for the nostalgia fueled coming-of-age tale told about a trio of teens' last day together before they part ways... forever? Being born in the 80's and growing up in the 90's themselves, our hosts seem like the obvious target demographic of this title. Will that make it easy to capture their hearts and keep them playing past the mandated hour... or will they hold the story to an impossible standard, having lived such similar events themselves?

Tiki is easy to dismiss: themed mugs, carved idols, Hawaiian shirts, and over-the-top cocktails. But the real history is far more interesting.

What happens when a category's success leads to its demise? Tequila is the fastest-growing spirit in the world, yet its popularity has put it on a path to extinction. In this episode, David Suro joins us to discuss the world of agave spirits, from smuggling tequila into the U.S. for tastings in the 1980s to the rise of industrialized production methods that he believes have put the entire category at risk of disappearing overnight.We Want to Hear from You!Have a topic, craft category, or craft company you'd like to see us cover?

The Beard Gang is back in rare form for this one… and this ain't your granddaddy's rye.
This week on The Whiskey Trip Podcast, Big Chief rides into the shadow of Pikes Peak to sit down with Paul Dunning from 13th Century Whiskey in beautiful Colorado Springs. Paul has built something truly unique in the whiskey world — a brand where every bottle is part of the experience. Each handcrafted release features a blown glass figure inside, from copper stills and aging barrels to incredible wildlife designs, making these bottles true shelf pieces and instant conversation starters. Crafted at the base of Pikes Peak, 13th Century Whiskey ages its spirits in small 30-gallon barrels, creating bold cask-strength pours packed with flavor while remaining remarkably smooth. Big Chief kicks things off with the Reserve Rye at 143 proof — unfiltered and unapologetic. Dark caramel, black pepper, baking spice, and toasted oak explode from the glass before finishing with a long warming spice. He then moves to the Reserve Bourbon at 142.2 proof to close out the first half. Vanilla bean, maple syrup, dark cherry, and caramelized sugar coat the palate with a rich oily mouthfeel that drinks far smoother than the proof suggests. On the second half, Big Chief pours the Cigar Blend — a toasted barrel-finished bourbon at 141 proof — and immediately gets transported back to childhood campfires and s'mores. Toasted marshmallow, graham cracker, melted chocolate, espresso, and charred oak create one unforgettable pour. To finish the ride, Big Chief pours their American Single Malt at 134.4 proof, which quickly became the star of the show. Honey, toasted malt, dark fruit, chocolate-covered raisins, and subtle smoke deliver a rich and balanced finish that refused to quit. Throughout the episode, Paul shares the story behind building 13th Century Whiskey, the inspiration behind the unforgettable bottles, and the passion required to stand apart in today's whiskey world. Take the Ride. Cheers.

Cheese can cost $12 a pound, or upwards of $100 for a wheel of the same size. So what is actually driving that difference in price, and is the most expensive option really worth it? Today, Elizabeth Chubbuck of Murray's Cheese breaks down how to think about value in cheese, from commodity cheddar to cave-aged, small-batch wheels. Along the way, Elizabeth and Eli also get into the history of Murray's, their unique cave aging program, and explore why inefficiency is often exactly what makes something great.We Want to Hear from You!Have a topic, craft category, or craft company you'd like to see us cover?

Fluent Fiction - Hungarian: Crafted Passion: A Budapest Tale of Art, History, and Negotiation Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/hu/episode/2026-04-25-22-34-02-hu Story Transcript:Hu: A Budapesti Természettudományi Múzeum impozáns csarnokában a tavasz szellője frissességet hozott a levegőbe.En: In the grand hall of the Budapesti Természettudományi Múzeum, the spring breeze brought freshness into the air.Hu: Színes standok sorakoztak egymás mellett, mindegyik magyar kézműves remekeket kínált az érdeklődőknek.En: Colorful stalls stood side by side, each offering Hungarian artisan masterpieces to the interested visitors.Hu: A hatalmas dinoszaurusz csontvázak árnyékában Bence, Dóra, és László sétáltak, elmerülve a látványban.En: In the shadow of the gigantic dinosaur skeletons, Bence, Dóra, and László walked, immersed in the sights.Hu: Bence szeme csillogott az izgalomtól.En: Bence's eyes sparkled with excitement.Hu: Az ősi magyar motívumok iránti rajongása és az artiszti szenvedélye idevezették őt.En: His passion for ancient Hungarian motifs and artistic enthusiasm led him here.Hu: Egy művészeti diák, aki inspirációt keresett utolsó munkájához.En: An art student seeking inspiration for his final project.Hu: Azonban testvére, Dóra, gyakorlatiasabb volt.En: However, his sister, Dóra, was more practical.Hu: Ő minden vásárlás előtt alaposan megfontolta az ésszerűséget és a költségeket.En: She carefully considered the sensibility and costs before every purchase.Hu: László pedig, a történelem szerelmese, gyakran kételkedett az modern kézművesség értékében.En: László, on the other hand, a lover of history, often doubted the value of modern craftsmanship.Hu: „Ez a tál annyira különleges!” mutatott Bence egy stand felé.En: "This bowl is so special!" Bence pointed towards a stall.Hu: A mély kék mázas tálon aranyszínű magyar motívumok futottak, amitől Bence rögtön elbűvölt.En: On the deep blue glazed bowl, golden Hungarian motifs ran, which immediately fascinated Bence.Hu: „Ez inspirálhatná az egész projektemet!”En: "This could inspire my entire project!"Hu: „De Bence,” mondta Dóra, „nagyon drága.En: "But Bence," said Dóra, "it's very expensive.Hu: Nem biztos, hogy megéri.”En: It might not be worth it."Hu: „És nem is biztos, hogy ez száz százalékig hiteles,” László hozzátette.En: "And it's not even certain that it's one hundred percent authentic," László added.Hu: „Sok ilyen modern változat egyszerűen nem érinti meg a régi mesterségek lelkét.”En: "Many of these modern versions simply don't touch the soul of ancient crafts."Hu: Bence azonban nem hagyta magát eltántorítani.En: Bence, however, was not deterred.Hu: Tovább keresgélt a standok között, az érzéseit követve.En: He continued to search among the stalls, following his feelings.Hu: Végül megpillantott valamit, ami igazán megragadta a figyelmét.En: Finally, he spotted something that truly captured his attention.Hu: Egy fiatal művész készített modern műveket, újraértelmezve a hagyományos formákat.En: A young artist was creating modern works, reinterpreting traditional forms.Hu: „Ez az!” kiáltotta Bence izgatottan.En: "This is it!" Bence exclaimed excitedly.Hu: Az árcédula azonban többet mutatott, mint amennyire számított.En: However, the price tag showed more than he expected.Hu: „Ennyi mégsem lehet…”En: "This can't be..."Hu: Dóra odalépett hozzá.En: Dóra stepped up to him.Hu: „Hagyd, hogy segítsek. Az árakat mindig lehet tárgyalni.”En: "Let me help. Prices can always be negotiated."Hu: Így hát Bence és Dóra elkezdtek beszélgetni az eladóval.En: So, Bence and Dóra began talking to the seller.Hu: Végül sikerült egy mindkét félnek megfelelő áron megegyezniük.En: Eventually, they managed to agree on a price suitable for both parties.Hu: „Talán mégis van valami ebben,” gondolta László, amikor meghallotta a művészt beszélni a darab történelmi inspirációiról.En: “Perhaps there is something to this,” László thought when he heard the artist speak about the historical inspirations behind the piece.Hu: Az eredeti népi motívumokat a magyar történelem egy fontos pillanata ihlette, amit László is ismert.En: The original folk motifs were inspired by a significant moment in Hungarian history that László also knew.Hu: A vásárt követően Bence magabiztosabban érezte magát.En: After the fair, Bence felt more confident.Hu: Rájött, hogyan egyensúlyozhatja a művészeti szenvedélyt a gyakorlatiassággal.En: He realized how to balance artistic passion with practicality.Hu: Dóra számára kinyílt egy új világ, ahol az érték nem mindig pénzben mérhető.En: For Dóra, a new world opened where value isn't always measured in money.Hu: László pedig megtapasztalta, hogy a történelem újrafelfedezése is lehet értékes.En: László experienced that the rediscovery of history can also be valuable.Hu: A nap végén, ahogy a nap sugarai megvilágították a múzeum ólomüveg ablakait, mindannyian új értékeket vittek haza magukkal.En: At the end of the day, as the sun's rays illuminated the museum's stained glass windows, they all took home new values with them.

Talkin' music, among other things, with my good buddy Cody Christian. Come hang out with us at Pickin' in the Backwoods Music Festival and see him live! http://www.codychristianmusic.com
Kwadwo Som-Pimpong started making furniture in 2015 because he bought a house with no furniture and decided to build his own. A decade later, he runs Crafted Glory, a small-batch luxury furniture brand blending West African artistry with Scandinavian design, while working 10-hour shifts at Eaton as a fabrication supervisor. In this episode, Chris sits down with Kwadwo to trace the journey from those first end tables built in a garage to a full-scale business. The conversation covers how Kwadwo manages the constraints of four to five hours in the shop each day, including three strategies he has put in place, a clipboard for tracking time and tasks, using Claude to reflect and connect the dots on the 40-minute drive home, and a networking story from New York that turned one photo on Instagram into a series of interior design projects. He also walks through the Echoes of the Forest project, two pieces made from trees uprooted by Hurricane Helene, one already installed in Biltmore Forest Town Hall and one headed for Asheville's historic YMI Cultural Center. In this episode, find out: How Kwadwo got into furniture making in 2015 out of necessity, moving into a house with no furniture and discovering he'd rather build his own, and how that organic beginning grew into Crafted Glory How his dual engineering degree from Carnegie Mellon gives him the mindset and the resilience to keep working through problems that feel unsolvable What he observed visiting Hellman Chang's manufacturing plant in Georgia, component part numbers, scan systems, work cells, and 5S, and how it changed what scaling from craft to production can look like while keeping the handmade element intact How 12 years as a fabrication supervisor at Eaton translated directly into running his own team, applying method sheets and time studies, and building standard operations that let someone else step in and do what he does The three strategies he uses to manage four to five hours of shop time per day alongside a 10-hour shift: a clipboard for time tracking, Claude for end-of-day reflection, and deliberate networking that turned one New York visit into a pipeline of interior design projects The Echoes of the Forest project, how Hurricane Helene uprooted thousands of trees across Asheville and led to two commissions: a mantle from a fallen walnut tree installed in Biltmore Forest Town Hall, and an outdoor bench headed for the historic YMI Cultural Center Enjoying the show?

Tweetable Quotes: “Now I see where I'm spending my time, I see how long each piece takes me. If I know the time, that translates into my pricing. If I get my pricing right, that moves me closer to being free from working another job.” “I use AI a lot in helping with organization — Claude specifically. At the end of the day, on my 40-minute drive home, I dictate what happened in the studio, my reflections, the challenges I faced. I love how Claude draws connections and builds on your whole story, your whole journey.” “I aspire to have an operation where I still maintain the craft element of what I'm doing, but it is systematized such that I can step away, bring someone in, train them to the documentation, and they can come in and do the same thing that I do.” Links & mentions: Crafted Glory, small batch luxury handmade furniture brand that crafts sustainable hardwood artistic furniture inspired by West African artistry and Scandanavian design Biscuit Head, an incredible biscuit-centric breakfast joint with roots in Asheville, NC Make sure to visit http://manufacturinghappyhour.com for detailed show notes and a full list of resources mentioned in this episode.

Quynh Nguyen, Jessie Chu, and Sara Kim are paper flower artists, educators, and co-founders of a mastermind built specifically for creative makers. In this episode, they share why story — not just skill — is what separates thriving artists from those who stay invisible. We also dig into why the creative maker market is a surprisingly powerful niche for video professionals to explore, and what it really takes to just start showing up on camera. Key Takeaways Sharing your story isn't optional — your audience is already guessing what your brand is about, so you might as well tell them yourself. The creative maker market (paper artists, ceramicists, makers of all kinds) produces inherently beautiful visuals and is actively looking for videographers who get them. You don't learn until you launch — waiting for the perfect setup or the perfect script just delays the growth that only comes from doing. A mastermind works best when the leaders model vulnerability first — that's what gives members permission to open up and be honest about their struggles. About Quynh, Jessie, Sara Three artists. Two countries. One mission: to build a thriving, honest, and supportive community for paper flower artists around the world. Together they bring backgrounds in law, music performance, culinary arts, marketing and logistics. They are proof that creative entrepreneurs come from everywhere. Paper Talk was born in 2017 when Quynh and Jessie could not find a community of crepe paper flower artists online and decided to build one themselves. What started as a Facebook group became a global community of makers, a podcast with 250,000 downloads, three published books, a YouTube channel with 73,500 subscribers, and brand partnerships with some of the most recognizable names in the creative industry. None of that happened without video. In This Episode [00:00:00] Welcome to the show!

Being able to tell them why you're doing this — that's what stands out." — Jessie Chu "Your ideal clients need you to show up for them. If you're holding back by not showing up on video, you're holding back the thing you're made to do." — Ryan Koral "My first video is so cringy to watch — but I don't take it down, because without that first video, I wouldn't be where I am now." — Sara Kim "In the last 10 weeks of sharing my real story — vulnerable, personal stuff — I've gotten more comments, DMs, and people stopping me in public than in the last two years combined." — Ryan Koral Guest Links Find Quynh Nguyen (Pink & Posey) online - Website | @pinkandposey on socials Find Jessie Chu (Crafted to Bloom) online - Website | @jessie.choo on socials Find Sara Kim online (Handmade by Sara) - @handmadebysakim on socials Explore Paper Talk Podcast Links Find out more about the Studio Sherpas Mastermind Join the Grow Your Video Business Facebook Group Follow Ryan Koral on Instagram Follow Grow Your Video Business on Instagram Join the Studio Sherpas newsletter

Very fun news… The Webby Awards have just nominated Future Around & Find Out as a nominee for Best Technology Podcast!!!And you can help make it a Popular Choice winner. Winning would be great for the growth of show. Thank you!Please vote for FAFO! ---OK, on to today's episode… it's another good vibes rooftop episode recorded at SXSW. For the second year in a row I'm joined by Rob Kenedi, a fellow podcaster, who is the founder and host of Decelerator. Last year he, very memorably, said we were in the “fart app era of AI”. Meaning: people are trying stuff (a la the make-a-fart-sound apps that people built in the early days of the iPhone). So, we revisit that comment and ask where are we now? And what's defensible for app makers — and for creators like us?Podcaster that he is, Rob turns the tables on me and asks me a bunch of questions about how I'm approaching this question and I shared what was top of mind when I rebranded the show recently from CRAFTED. to Future Around & Find Out. Namely, I wanted to give the show more personality, but that is how you stand out right now and that's what going to be defensible in the age of AI. And the Webby nomination — you already voted, right?? — only makes me feel more confident in the rebrand and the addition of more of these casual “FAFO Friday” episodes that feature a lot more of my (and regular guest Kwaku Aning's) personality. (You'll hear more about how AI is changing the creator economy and why “being human” is so important in a few days when my episode with Jim Louderback, writer of Inside the Creator Economy, comes out; he gives a great annual talk at SXSW and I had seen it the day before recording with Rob.)In the meantime, come join Rob and me for some good vibes from Austin… And (ask your friends to) vote: https://vote.webbyawards.com/PublicVoting#/2026/podcasts/shows/technology

Stradivarius violins, cellos, and guitars are among the most treasured musical instruments in the world. Crafted during the 17th and 18th centuries, the pieces are rare and invaluable. Something so precious deserves the utmost care. So, when a Stradivarius cello—worth more than $20 million—fell off a table during a photo shoot, it was truly shocking! Just as a Stradivarius must be handled carefully, so must our relationships. We’re to love others because Christ demonstrated His love toward us. In John 13:34, Jesus gave His disciples a command that requires careful attention: “A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another.” Why did Christ call it a new command? It was new because it was rooted in the way Jesus loved people. This new command to love wasn’t careless or casual but intentional, precious, and sacrificial. Loving this way would lead to discipleship, self-denial, and possibly even death for the disciples. This care for one another would be how they survived in a difficult and hostile world after Christ’s departure. And Jesus told them, “Everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another” (v. 35). Let’s carefully and sacrificially love others—reflecting Jesus’ precious and priceless love.
