This week on Two Strike Noise, Jeff and Mark open the show with a tribute to Butch Huskey, the former Met and Mariner who passed away recently. From there, the guys warm up with some batting practice covering Billy Joel and Christie Brinkley's appearance at Game 2 of the 1986 World Series, complete with a camcorder that almost certainly lacked the express written consent of Major League Baseball. They also dig into the surprising smoking culture of Korean baseball, including the union-mandated mid-game smoke break and the hard-boiled eggs that apparently go with it. Jeff highlights Britt Apgar, a 22-year-old pitcher and outfielder for the LA Queens of the newly launched Women's Professional Baseball League, who has overcome a limb difference and an extraordinary set of obstacles to make her mark on the game. The guys also touch on Colby Rasmus's niece Kinley tearing it up at the Little League World Series. The main topic this week is Jim Creighton, baseball's first superstar, who played when Lincoln was president, helped invent the art of actually trying to get hitters out, and died at 21 in one of the game's oldest and most debated mysteries. Then it's on to Wax Pack Heroes, where Jeff and Mark crack open Upper Deck Choice cans from the home run era — Mike Piazza, A-Rod, J.D. Drew, Jay Bell, Sammy Sosa, and Mark McLemore all make appearances, and Jeff extends his lead on the all-time scoreboard. 00:00 Podcast Intro and Tribute 01:35 Mariners Misery Check In 03:19 Billy Joel Mets Easter Egg 07:17 KBO Smoke Break Mystery 10:19 Women in Baseball Spotlight 16:06 Main Topic: Jim Creighton 56:09 Competitive Gamer Story 57:37 Wrap Up And Plugs Two Strike Noise, baseball history podcast, Jim Creighton, baseball's first superstar, Brooklyn Excelsiors, 1860s baseball, Billy Joel 1986 World Series, Christie Brinkley Shea Stadium, Korean baseball smoking break, Britt Apgar WPBL Women's Professional Baseball League, Colby Rasmus Little League World Series, Butch Huskey, Wax Pack Heroes, Upper Deck Choice cans, Mike Piazza, Alex Rodriguez, Sammy Sosa, J.D.

What will higher education look like in an age of artificial intelligence, and how can Texas universities make sure their degrees continue to deliver value? On this episode of Texas Talks, host Brad Swail sits down with Brandon Creighton, Chancellor of the Texas Tech University System and former Texas state senator and representative, to discuss higher education reform, artificial intelligence, and his vision for Texas Tech's future. Creighton reflects on his transition from writing higher education policy in the Texas Legislature to implementing it as chancellor, including Texas Tech's review of roughly 14,000 courses under Senate Bill 37. He discusses curriculum reform, degrees of value, workforce needs, and how universities must adapt as AI rapidly changes both education and the private sector. The conversation also explores Texas Tech's work with NVIDIA, its plans for advanced AI computing infrastructure, and the potential applications for healthcare research, energy, national security, and other major challenges facing Texas. The episode covers: Senate Bill 37 and higher education reform Texas Tech's review of roughly 14,000 courses Preparing students and universities for AI Texas Tech's work with NVIDIA and advanced computing AI research, healthcare, energy, and national security Creighton's priorities heading into the 90th Texas Legislature Creighton ultimately argues that Texas universities have an opportunity to lead rather than follow as AI transforms education, research, and the economy—summarizing his approach with a simple warning: “You're either designing the menu or you're on it.” 00:00 — Introduction 00:23 — Brandon Creighton's move from the Legislature to Texas Tech 02:39 — Creighton's background and interest in education 04:30 — What is Senate Bill 37? 07:37 — From writing SB 37 to implementing it 09:34 — Reviewing 14,000 Texas Tech courses 12:15 — Curriculum reform and degrees of value 14:06 — Texas Tech's approach to higher education reform 16:18 — What could come next for SB 37? 17:30 — Preparing Texas Tech for the AI era 21:00 — Students, AI, and academic integrity 25:08 — Texas Tech's NVIDIA partnership 29:09 — Sovereign data independence and national security 32:08 — Priorities for the 90th Texas Legislature 33:41 — Closing thoughts Watch Full-Length Interviews: https://www.youtube.com/@TexasTalks Follow us on social mediaX: @Texas_DispatchInstagram: thetexasdispatchLinkedIn: The Texas DispatchTikTok: texas_talks_podcast Find more at The Texas DispatchYour source for state news, policy, and investigative journalism.https://thetexasdispatch.com

This final volume of the History of the Papacy begins with the rise of Martin Luther and with the final years of Leo X's papacy. Leo never really grappled with Luther's calls for reform and his successors, Adrian VI and Clement VII, were equally ineffectual in preventing the establishment of the Protestant Church in Germany. The political sky darkened as the rivalry between Francis I and Charles V spilled over the Alps into Italy. The army of Charles V, unpaid, ill-fed, and mutinous moved relentlessly southward until Rome itself fell defenseless. Bishop Creighton writes: "Brutalized by hardships, by poverty, by suffering; of different nations, Germans, Spaniards, Italians; they were held together by no common bond save that of boundless cupidity, and wild desire." The sack of Rome lasted eight days, but it was followed by nine months of occupation, violence and extortion.
