In dieser Folge kommt die Cru endlich in Island an! Doch kurz bevor sie ankern sehen sie wie ein Mann an einer Klippe steht und hören ihren Song aus seinem Leierkasten - mit ihren Stimmen gesungen, ohne ihn je performt zu haben... gruselig. Doch schnell ist der Mann vergessen und sie ankern in der selben (!!!) Bucht, wo nur eine einzige Villa steht.

Why This Episode Is a Must-Listen Are you intrigued by the intersection of passion and profit in wine collecting? This Inspired Money episode, hosted by Andy Wang, brings together top minds from wine auctions, investment platforms, and market experts for an eye-opening look at how wine has become a bona fide asset class. Whether you're a seasoned collector, investor, or simply wine-curious, this discussion unpacks strategies to maximize both enjoyment and value. Episodes like this are packed with insights that demystify the fine wine market, reveal what really drives price appreciation, and share hard-earned advice on avoiding costly mistakes. Meet the Expert Panelists Nick Pegna is the Global Head of Wine & Spirits at Sotheby's, bringing over 30 years of international experience in building and leading fine wine businesses across Europe and Asia. Formerly a senior executive at Berry Bros. & Rudd, where he helped shape global markets and co-led Hong Kong's successful campaign to abolish wine duties, Pegna now oversees Sotheby's record-setting global auction and retail operations. https://www.sothebys.com Callum Woodcock is the Founder and CEO of WineFi, a London-based investment platform that combines institutional-grade analytics with expert curation to make fine wine investing more transparent and accessible. A former J.P. Morgan asset manager with degrees from the University of Bristol and the University of Cambridge, he's leading WineFi's mission to position fine wine as a data-driven, tax-efficient, and inflation-resilient asset class. https://www.winefi.co Amanda McCrossin is a sommelier, media personality, and creator of @sommvivant, where her wine-focused content reaches over 450,000 followers across Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube. Formerly the Wine Director at PRESS Restaurant in Napa Valley—the world's largest collection of Napa Valley wines—she's now a leading voice in wine education and storytelling, hosting the Wine Access Unfiltered podcast and appearing regularly at major global wine events. https://www.amandamccrossin.com https://www.sommvivant.me Robbie Stevens is the Head of Broking at Live-ex, the global exchange for fine wine, market data, and insight. On a daily basis he deals with the largest fine wine buyers and sellers globally, offering them data-driven intelligence and opportunities to trade. With over a decade at Liv-ex and experience across global wine markets, as well as regularly sharing his experience on the international stage, speaking at conferences such as Vinexpo and the National Association of Wine Retailers, he combines deep knowledge of the fine wine market with strong industry perspective. https://www.liv-ex.com Unfortunately, Dustin Wilson was not able to make this episode but appears on "The Art of Wine Pairing: Elevating Retirement Gastronomy with Fine Wines" from April 2025. Dustin Wilson is a Master Sommelier, entrepreneur, and co-founder of Verve Wine, a modern retail and hospitality brand with locations in New York, San Francisco, and Chicago. Known for his role in the SOMM film series, Wilson has also launched Après Cru, a firm supporting the growth of visionary restaurant concepts. https://ny.vervewine.com Key Highlights 1. Disciplined Bidding at Auctions Nick Pegna reveals why preparation and strategy, including setting a maximum bid and understanding total costs, safeguard buyers against emotional overspending: "The most careful and frequent buyers at auction have a strategy. They've planned what they're looking to bid on...across multiple auctions." 2. Secondary Market Liquidity Drives Investment Value Callum Woodcock emphasizes the importance of focusing on wines with proven resale liquidity, not just brand prestige or critics' scores. Data-driven models and decades of market transaction history are now key to "blue chip" wine selection. 3. Storytelling Fuels Scarcity and Demand Amanda McCrossin illustrates how narrative and personal connection make certain bottles iconic and drive up their market value, citing Napa's Screaming Eagle as a prime example. "Scarcity is really only informed by storytelling...what has made Napa Valley so successful is the storytelling element." 4. Transparency and Technology Are Raising the Bar Robbie Stevens shares Liv-ex's role in fostering trust: from vetting merchants, digitizing provenance, to benchmarking prices. The expansion of data access and seller management tools allows collectors to track market movements and optimize timing for liquidation. Call-to-Action Take a look at one item in your own collection, wine, art, or even another collectible, and think about it like an investor. What makes it valuable? How would you verify its authenticity, track its performance, and decide the right time to sell? Just doing that exercise will give you a new lens for appreciating your investments, and maybe even inspire your next move.

Hi, I'm John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International, and you're listening to Share Life Today. Larry, who serves on the I Am Second Executive Team and is the Hollywood Liaison for Cru, told me about a remarkable moment with Justin Bieber. At one of his concerts, Justin stopped the show and said, “I want my pastor to come up and share more with you. But I thought, that is so powerful for Justin Bieber to do that, and to make a statement about, ‘Hey, Christ is important to me.'” Larry went on to explain the impact: when someone with influence takes a stand for Christ, people listen. Young fans who already love Bieber suddenly hear about a greater love — the love of Jesus Christ. And here's the truth: you don't have to be a pop star to make that kind of impact. Each of us has a platform we can use to share the Gospel. So today, use your influence to make a bold statement: “Christ is important to me.” For resources and to watch the full interview with Larry, visit our website at sharelife.today.

El músico flamenco Niño de Elche y el compositor y productor Raül Refree presentan su nuevo disco 'Cru+es' en el informativo '24 Horas' de RNE. Niño de Elche reconoce que él y Raúl han tocado durante muchos años juntos: "Nos conocemos más, incluso de antes de tocar juntos. Entendimos que era el momento por las cuestiones vitales, las cuestiones también laborales. Se daban las circunstancias tanto emocionales como materiales para que esto pudiese ser". El músico flamenco asegura: "con un disco como este tienes el deseo de que puedas llegar a otros territorios que son difíciles de habitar con este tipo de textos y sonoridades, este concepto solamente lo puedes hacer con alguien que tienes una complicidad y una confianza absoluta, y con Raúl ha sido así desde el principio". Raül también explica que juntos congenian a la perfección a la hora de crear: "Nos une que los dos confiamos mucho en nuestra intuición y que a los dos nos gusta jugar mucho, que no tenemos miedo a los límites estilísticos, ni tenemos ningún miedo a probar cosas nuevas de experimentar y que al final tomamos decisiones no tanto por lo que queremos que sea, sino por lo que sentimos que tiene que ser". En este disco experimentan con sonidos y temas muy diversos como el simbolismo de la "escalera", la religión cristiana o los silencios. Entrevista completa en RNE Audio. Escuchar audio

Finding Jesus in the Garden of Eden? Yes! Naming errors by those whose views have gone askew? Yes! Let's look at the Gospel in the Garden. Then, lets see where many have gone askew in their view of New Testament passages on women and men because their view of Genesis 3:16 was askew too.Go Deeper? We invite you to get a copy (audiobook on Audible, hard copy or eBook at Amazon) of The Book of Eden, Genesis 2-3 by Bruce C. E. Fleming. You can also sign up for our Tru School Workshops on the four key passages on women and men here: Tru316.com/workshop The Tru316 Foundation (www.Tru316.com) is the home of The Eden Podcast with Bruce C. E. Fleming where we “true” the verse of Genesis 3:16. The Tru316 Message is that “God didn't curse Eve (or Adam) or limit woman in any way.” Once Genesis 3:16 is made clear the other passages on women and men become clear too. You are encouraged to access the episodes of Seasons 1-11 of The Eden Podcast for teaching on the seven key passages on women and men. Are you a reader?

Hear Caleb's One80 and the unlikely mentor who walked him back from the bridge. "And then, at the pinnacle of my life. . . why do I feel so empty?" said University of Minnesota student Caleb Jue, on his rock bottom night. But God reached out to Caleb and a journey of restoration would come to him. Namely in the form of a Pinnacle Forum leader, Merrill Oster. These Pinnacle retirees had been praying that they would mentor a student from an area high school, and in walks Caleb to Merrill's home. Hear how he went to Merrill's house to solicit power washing, but left with purpose. God uses this relationship to steer Caleb towards faith in Christ, and freedom from his sinful patterns. This story is a testament to redemption and the power of mentorship.Helpful Links:SALT, the U of Minnesota Church, a college church planting network https://www.thesaltnetwork.com/Mentors for college studentsPinnacle ForumChristian Mentoring, helpful resources from Cru.orgLet us know what you thought of the show!Follow One80 on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or our website.Never miss a One80.

For some teams, a 3-0 start is precisely in the plan. For others, 3-0 is perhaps a pipe dream, or a first-time occurrence.  In this week's edition of the podcast, we talk about a few of each as we wrap up Week 3 of the Division III football season. Johns Hopkins was given just about a 50% chance of starting the season 3-0, with some top-flight competition on the docket. But they got the job done, and we learned a little bit about the Blue Jays in the process. We'll tell you what we've seen and coach Dan Wodicka will do the same. UW-Whitewater vaulted itself into the same top echelon as the rest of the WIAC contenders with a big win down at Mary Hardin-Baylor. What did we see that bodes well for the Warhawks and what does this do to the Cru's playoff chances? We'll discuss. Plus, a number of teams are surprising at 3-0. How about Calvin? The Knights are in just their second season of varsity football and got to 3-0 in dramatic fashion on the road, against a team from a tough conference. How about Hampden-Sydney? The Tigers moved to 3-0 and did it in dominant fashion, and on the ground. And Lewis & Clark, you know, the school that hired away Linfield offensive coordinator Brett Elliott, the Gagliardi Trophy-winning quarterback, and made him head coach? The Pioneers got the job done with defense on Saturday, and Greg Thomas talks with Elliott in our Fast Five.  Plus, we'll dive in and take four of your mailbag questions, about the SAA, how many teams we think are in the top tier of Division III, whether D-III's wins against D-II schools and an FCS program mean that Division III is getting better, and what's up with Coast Guard. Patrick and Greg Thomas hand out game balls, Logan Hansen talks about which teams have a better than 50% chance of making the playoffs as an at-large team if needed, we go around each region for the happy and sad stories and much more in this edition of the D3football.com Around the Nation podcast.

In this episode, the Cru dives into the world of submissions: the grind of rejection slips; the rare joy of a personal note from the editor; the endless predawn hours of "why did I have to fall in love with writing;" and the importance of READING THE DANG GUIDELINES when sending your work to literary magazines. We swap insights on what editors look for, how to handle feedback, and the value of old-fashioned gumption.Stories this week begin around the 31:30 mark (yeah, we packing in a LOT of information about submissions) and range from cosmic tragedy to intimate loss: a plane serenaded by the song of regurgitation; a quiet reckoning beneath a sky that fades to black; and a love realized only in retrospect.Like this weeks episode and wish you could read as well as listen?
