He does have some other achievements in more domestic setting- but those will have to wait until next time...Time period: 640- 625 BCERelevant individuals: Ancus Marcius, 4th King of Rome; Lucius Tarquinius, Roman cavalry commanderSources for this episode:Appian (1972), Appian's Roman History in Four Volumes (Volume I).

Send us Fan MailMy guest today is Elisabeth Storrs, author of Fables and Lies, listed in the Visual Arts category on Art In Fiction.Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/lCJfOypSQr4The genesis of Fables and Lies: how a 30-year obsession with Priam's Gold and its mysterious disappearance after the Russians took it from Berlin led Elisabeth to create Freya, a young German woman working at the Museum of Pre- and Early History in Berlin as the war closes in.Himmler's SS Ahnenerbe, the pseudo-academic research institute that weaponized archaeology to justify Nazi ideology, and how the curator of Freya's museum being a member of it transformed what began as a novel about two women into something far more complex and sinister.The real inspiration behind Indiana Jones: Himmler's belief in the occult, Atlantis, and the Holy Grail, and the expeditions he sent to Tibet and Bolivia that Spielberg later drew on.Writing from inside the Nazi regime: Elisabeth's personal hesitation about telling the story from a German point of view given her father's experience as an Australian soldier in World War II, and why she decided the story needed to be told anyway.The Brenner family as microcosm: how Freya, her morally anchored father Konrad, her MAGA-adjacent mother Elsa, and her fully indoctrinated sister Volla each represent a different response to life under the Reich.Why Freya had to start as a true believer: the challenge of creating a protagonist who is indoctrinated, the small cracks in her worldview from the opening pages, and how Darien, the Cambridge-educated outsider archaeologist, opens her eyes.Berlin as a character in the novel: Elisabeth's research trip to the city, the walking tour with a Humboldt University history student, and the discovery that the Museum of Pre- and Early History sat next door to Gestapo headquarters on what is now the Topography of Terror site.The parallels to today: how Elisabeth finished the novel before the current global rise of fascism made it feel even more relevant, and what the preconditions for Hitler's rise in Weimar Germany have in common with what we are seeing now.The carpet bombing of Berlin, the Soviet artillery siege, and the absurdity of dropping leaflets telling civilians to overthrow the regime while destroying their city around them.A reading from the opening pages of Fables and Lies: Freya cycling home through Berlin on 24 August 1939, and her first encounter with Dieter, the jazz-loving teenager whose punishment plants the first seed of doubt.What Elisabeth is working on next: a four-timeline novel tracing Priam's Gold from a Bronze Age goldsmith in Troy through Schliemann's 1873 discovery, the Russian Trophy Brigade, and Freya's granddaughter piecing it all together in the 1990s.Read more about Elisabeth Storrs on her website: https://elisabethstorrs.com/Are you enjoying The Art In Fiction Podcast?

What exactly is quantum computing? Why does it matter, and what would it actually mean to “win” the quantum race? Zach Yerushalmi, CEO of Elevate Quantum, a Mountain West–based public-private consortium advancing the U.S. quantum ecosystem, and Chris Miller join the podcast to discuss. Our conversation covers… What Quantum Computing Actually Is — A primer on qubits, superposition, and why quantum computers aren't “faster classical machines” but fundamentally different systems designed to simulate nature and solve specific classes of problems. Why Quantum Matters Now — Breakthroughs in error correction and hardware have shifted quantum from theory to an engineering race, with major implications for drug discovery, materials science, artificial intelligence, and cybersecurity. The Economic and National Security Stakes — Quantum's potential impact on cryptography, advanced manufacturing, biotech, and defense makes it a strategic technology with an extremely small margin for error in global competition. From Science Project to Industrial Policy Challenge — The bottleneck is no longer just physics but scaling. Talent pipelines, fabrication capacity, supply chains, and the kinds of public-private partnerships needed to move from lab prototypes to deployable systems. What Winning Looks Like — Leadership isn't just building the first powerful machine. It's shaping standards, securing supply chains, protecting encryption, diffusing capabilities across industry, and sustaining innovation in a tight U.S.–China technological race.

What makes recycling metals from cremations crucial for both the environment and society? Mike McKenna, director of Recycling and Development with Core Scientific, discusses the importance of a circular economy for repurposing metals from cremations. This process not only conserves precious resources but also supports charities with the recycled materials' value. Through such innovative practices, funeral professionals are now contributing significantly to sustainability and environmental conservation. Plan your visit to the museum today at nmfh.org and take a journey through over 30,000 square feet of fascinating history. Subscribe to The Final Curtain Never Closes on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts. Key Takeaways 1. Recycling plays a crucial role in conserving resources by keeping materials in a circular economy. This means metals from implants and other sources are reused, reducing the need for new raw material extraction. This process conserves air, land, and water resources. 2. The process of cremation includes the retrieval and recycling of metal implants such as hips, knees, and dental implants. These metals are then repurposed into various everyday products, emphasizing the importance of recycling even in death. 3. Core Scientific works with crematoriums to implement structured recycling programs, training operators, and handling logistics to ensure metals are collected and reused responsibly. This professionalization signals a shift towards more ethical practices in the funeral industry. 3. Medical implants have a rich history dating back thousands of years, evolving from materials like wood, ivory, and seashells to modern-day titanium and cobalt. This evolution highlights humanity’s long-standing efforts to improve the quality of life through medical advancements. 4. Recycling metals from cremation not only conserves natural resources but also aligns with ethical responsibilities. The value from recycled metals is often donated to charities, further extending the positive impact on society and perpetuating a cycle of giving.

This lecture establishes the historical and theological foundations of Reformed Baptist identity by tracing its roots to the Protestant Reformation and the English Separatist movement, emphasizing that Reformed Baptists are not merely a subset of General Baptists but a distinct expression of the broader Reformed tradition. Drawing from 1 Timothy 4, the preacher underscores the necessity of holding fast to the objective, scriptural truth once delivered to the saints, warning against the dilution of doctrine in modern usage. The narrative highlights how the Particular (Reformed) Baptists, emerging from the same separatist milieu as other reformed traditions, preserved a high view of Scripture, believer's baptism by immersion, and the immediate headship of Christ over the local church, while explicitly affirming their unity with other Reformed traditions through confessions like the 1689 London Baptist Confession. The lecture argues that being a Reformed Baptist means embracing a doctrinal heritage rooted in the Reformation, expressed through a written, historically grounded confession of faith, and committed to both doctrinal precision and ecclesial unity across denominational lines.

Part 2 Like every movement, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has had a beginning, a period of development, and a time of stability.  The LDS Church has typically been separated into three distinctive periods. 1.    “Early History” under the leadership of Joseph Smith, Jr.  2.    “Pioneering era” under the leadership of Brigham Young. 3.    “Modern Era” beginning around the turn of the 20th century The purpose of this second teaching part is to explore this history.  To understand the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints today, one must first understand the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as it began and developed.  The Church makes great claims for itself and prides itself on outlandish doctrines which run counter to the Word of God.  It had a founding prophet who claimed to be visited by God the Father and  Jesus Christ His Son, along with a whole host of biblical characters who have long departed from this world – John the Baptist, Peter, James and John.  It claims to have restored the fullness of the lost Gospel, even though it was never lost.  It has three additional books of authority besides the King James Bible  -- The Book of Mormon, Doctrine and Covenants and Pearl of Great Price.  This is more sources of extra-biblical revelation than any other cult.  Such claims call for a thorough examination, and what better way to begin to do this than to start at the beginning.   Download teaching notes (pdf) https://traffic.libsyn.com/secure/bethesdashalom/2_History_of_Mormonism.pdf

In this episode of The Lutheran History Podcast, we talk with Dr. Timothy D. Grundmeier about his recent article, “Pennsylvania's ‘Youthful Daughter': Reexamining the Early History of the Wisconsin Synod,” featured in the Wisconsin Lutheran Quarterly (Spring 2025). While many are familiar with the Wisconsin Synod's early ties to German mission societies and eventual fellowship with the Missouri Synod, Dr. Grundmeier highlights an often underappreciated chapter in WELS history: its formative partnership with the Pennsylvania Synod. Drawing on rich archival sources, he paints a fuller picture of how eastern Lutherans supported and shaped the growing church in the Midwest through financial aid, pastoral connections, and shared theological commitments. This episode invites listeners to reflect on the blessings of intersynodical cooperation and the broader roots of confessional Lutheranism in America.Support the show Confessional Languages Scholarship The Wauwatosa Diary (book) Youtube ( even more behind-the-scenes videos available for certain patron tiers) Facebook Website Interview Request Form email: thelutheranhistorypodcast@gmail.com About the HostBenjamin Phelps is a 2014 graduate from Martin Luther College with a Bachelor of Arts with a German emphasis.
