Jase dons a wild getup in honor of the Mia Moo Foundation's annual family weekend and recounts a gathering that moved him to tears more than once. Mia comes full circle, mentoring kids who share the health struggles she faced. An eerie blackout nearly derails the carefully laid plans, but even darkness cannot stop God from moving among these families. Al recalls moments when “coincidences” felt like dark forces resisting spiritual work, yet the Truth always wins.

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the dance which, from when it reached Britain in the early nineteenth century, revolutionised the relationship between music, literature and people here for the next hundred years. While it may seem formal now, it was the informality and daring that drove its popularity, with couples holding each other as they spun round a room to new lighter music popularised by Johann Strauss, father and son, such as The Blue Danube. Soon the Waltz expanded the creative world in poetry, ballet, novellas and music, from the Ballets Russes of Diaghilev to Moon River and Are You Lonesome Tonight.

Today on the Conversations on Dance podcast we are thrilled to have two fabulous guests: Maria Calegari and Bart Cook. We have have both Maria and Bart on the podcast before, but this married couple danced together and now sets ballets together, so we knew we had to get them on the podcast together to hear more about their careers and their work as repetiteurs for the Balanchine Trust and for the Robbins Trust. We talk through their experiences dancing together, then some of the specific ballets that they have set together: basically it's just an hour and a half of bunhead time. Maria & Bart are currently offering virtual and in-person private lessons for pre-professional and professional ballet dancers ages 15 and up. Lessons are structured to focus on your specific artistic goals to identify the stylistic and technical nuances that you can use to improve your movement quality, advice that goes beyond the typical class format.

For the British writer and cultural critic Olivia Laing, restoring and tending to their backyard garden has prompted complex questions of power, community, and mystery, concepts that they beautifully excavate in their latest book, the fascinating and mind-expanding The Garden Against Time: In Search of a Common Paradise. Whether in their nonfiction works, including the critically acclaimed The Lonely City (2016), their art and culture writing and criticism (2020's Funny Weather: Art in an Emergency), or their novels (2018's Crudo and the forthcoming The Silver Book, out this November), Laing turns an incisive eye to examining what it will take for people—our “temporal selves,” as they put it—to forgo loneliness and isolation, reconnect with nature and one another, and flourish on a planet in crisis.On this episode, recorded in their apartment at the Barbican in London, Laing explores gardening and writing's symbiotic relationship; the act of rebelling against a reactive culture by embracing slowness; and the importance of imagining, in vivid detail, the kinds of utopias we could one day very well live in.Special thanks to our Season 12 presenting sponsor, Van Cleef & Arpels.Show notes:Olivia Laing[4:35] The Barbican[7:39] “The Garden Against Time” (2024)[7:53] Mark Rumary[9:08] Notcutts[14:08] “The Lonely City: Adventures in the Art of Being Alone” (2016)[16:07] Jhumpa Lahiri[18:41] Piet Oudolf[19:21] Middleton Place[19:21] The Sackler family[22:54] “Modern Nature” (1991)[24:07] “Paradise Lost” (1667)[25:40] “The Secret Garden” (1911)[25:40] “Tom's Midnight Garden” (1958)[29:29] “The Garden” (1681)[30:29] “Everybody: A Book About Freedom” (2021) [35:07] “The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma” (2014)[39:57] David Wojnarowicz's "Magic Box"[39:57] Ana Mendieta[40:51] Agnes Martin[43:08] “Funny Weather: Art in an Emergency” (2020) [45:29] “Crudo” (2018) [48:20] “A Dance to the Music of Time” (1951–1975) [50:29] “The Silver Book” (2025)[52:48] Federico Fellini[52:48] Pier Paolo Pasolini[55:17] “News from Nowhere” (1890)

Eileen's husband recently had an affair. They've decided to stay together and work through it, but they haven't told their 11-year-old daughter anything about it. Their daughter just joined a new competition dance team, and one of the other moms is the woman that Eileen's husband had an affair with. Eileen doesn't know if she can spend every weekend around this woman, but it also feels unfair to pull her daughter off the team and not be able to explain why. What do you think she should do?

In this week's podcast episode, I'm joined by my husband, THE Mr. Brainy Ballerina Steve Sloan, to reflect on our journey together - from his background as a college soccer player to supporting my career as a professional dancer, and now navigating life as parents. We share stories from our early days of dating, his first impressions of the ballet world, and the infamous “apple crisp incident” during tech week.Steve also opens up about the sacrifices we've both made for each other's careers, how his corporate work “selling robots to scientists” compares to the ballet world, and what lessons dancers can teach everyone about resilience and determination.We also tackle some fun audience questions, including Steve's hidden talent, his favorite roles he's seen me perform, and his heartfelt advice for anyone in a relationship with a dancer.This episode is full of laughter, honesty, and love.

It's all about your Character & Integrity!This week, we start a 7-week series based on my book, "Senior Salute," which I wrote as a follow-up to my most popular book ever, "Inspiration for the Graduate." Both are gift books for coaches or parents to give to their senior athletes. "Inspiration for the Graduate" makes for a great graduation gift, and "Senior Salute" is a great gift to give on Senior Night or at the End-of-Season Banquet. Each book is filled with quotes based on various Team Themes that, hopefully, the coaches have talked with and worked on with their teams at some point in the season. This week, we start with the first chapter of the book and the theme of Character & Integrity. You will hear four quotes discussed in today's episode.For more information to help you on your road to becoming your best, check us out at SlamDunkSuccess.com or email me at scott@slamdunksuccess.com.As always, our background music is "Dance in the Sun" by Krisztian Vass.

“Beauty can come from ashes, and it's one of those things that's hard to comprehend in the middle of it, but that's where hope sets in. Life is going to be very difficult, yet we can find some beauty in this and grow.” —Rachel Porter Some days, it feels like life's setbacks are proof we're falling behind, but what if those tough moments are actually the start of something better?

Every challenge she faced, big or small, became a lesson in self-forgiveness and resilience, shaping her mission as a coach and author. Her story is about finding worth in the mess and learning to dance through the fire.

Episode SummaryDance artists Mele Estrella and Damara Vita Ganley join show host Jef Szi and the How Humans Work Podcast for an illuminating conversation that explores the rich terrain of their artistic work. Throughout this remarkable episode, we learn about Mele and Damara's intensive creative ethics, efforts to engender trust, dedication to playfulness, and deep curiosity about the hidden stories around them. As dedicated movement artists, they are a powerful example of how attuning with one's body, relationships, and the performance spaces acts as a cohesive force. Their craft and their commitment to the process of art is the foundation for their dance, and we are well-instructed by listening to them. In particular, we hear the fascinating backstory to their recent project, Flock. Flock intertwines animal and human migration stories with ecological awareness, showing the importance of belonging through the metaphor of “flocking.” The Dance of Belonging also explores their “Vertical Dance” Bandaloop Project. Using rope and harnesses to dance on the sides of massive objects, like granite faces or skyscrapers, this innovative dance form is a uniquely stunning display of how art can inspire wonder in all of us. Naturally, we discuss the teachings that come with encountering fear as part of the artistic path. We come to find how Mele and Damara use fear as a guide for deeper connection and support, finding confidence in creative belonging.Many thanks to Mele and Damara for helping us see Social Cohesion in action. Through their creative efforts and commitment to authentic connection, we find that social cohesion is not so much a product of external forces but instead begins with our connection to our own bodies and the group of people we create the story of our lives with.*****About Melecio “Mele” Estrella:Mele Estrella is a director, choreographer, and educator who has been with BANDALOOP since 2002. As Artistic Director, Mele brings 2 decades of practice weaving vertical dance, dance theater, somatic facilitation. and ecological belonging to BANDALOOP's dance making.

Tom Ackerman and Jim Brennan recap the Dance for Dravet fundraiser, which brought together more than 500 attendees and raised over $900,000 to support research for Dravet syndrome, a rare form of epilepsy. The event surpassed its goal of raising a cumulative $1 million, driven by the generosity of the St. Louis community. Jim also shared updates from McKelvey Homes, which will donate $1,898 for every home sold in the fourth quarter to the ACA Affordable Housing Fund, now awarding more than $2 million in grants. The conversation wraps with plans for future charitable initiatives and community development projects.
The show opens with Cardinals talk, as Tom takes calls from fans reacting to Chaim Bloom's hiring and the decision to retain manager Oliver Marmol. Fans share their frustrations and hopes for the team's future, while Tom breaks down the challenges of rebuilding a contender. From there, Tom turns to Hollywood, speaking with William H. Macy at the St. Louis premiere of “Soul on Fire” — a film honoring Jack Buck's compassion and John O'Leary's remarkable survival story. Macy discusses portraying Buck, filming around St. Louis landmarks, and the emotional response to the story. Hockey takes center stage next. Blues Head Coach Jim Montgomery joins to discuss the team's preseason matchup with the Chicago Blackhawks, the progress of young players, and the goaltending tandem of Jordan Binnington and Joel Hofer. Then, Lindenwood Head Coach Keith Fisher recaps the Lions' opener against Wisconsin, outlines areas for growth, previews games against Lake Superior State and Denver, and talks about the rapid growth of hockey in St. Louis. Hour 2 kicks off with NFL picks, as Tom previews the biggest games of the day and offers his predictions for key matchups. The focus then shifts back to the St. Louis community when Jim Brennan joins to celebrate the Dance for Dravet fundraiser, which drew more than 500 attendees and raised over $900,000 to support research for Dravet syndrome, a rare form of epilepsy. Next, John Rooney, the voice of the Cardinals, sits down with Chaim Bloom, the team's new President of Baseball Operations, who shares his vision for creating a winning culture from 1 to 6 PM. Bloom discusses balancing player development and competitiveness, praises the work ethic across the organization, and highlights his strong relationship with manager Oliver Marmol. The show wraps with Bernie Miklasz, who joins Tom to discuss Cardinals fan expectations, the team's remarkable consistency under Bill DeWitt's ownership — with 17 postseason appearances in 30 years — and Bloom's long-term plan focused on drafting and developing talent, especially starting pitchers.
