Podcasts about The Early Years

Send us Fan MailIn this episode, Kate Woodward Young and Jason Lody have a really eye-opening conversation about leadership stability in early childhood education. Kate shares her impressive journey from family home provider to business coach, then dives into findings from a survey of 620 programs across 30 states. Spoiler alert - the results are concerning! Over half of programs feel they're one crisis away from closing, and accountability gaps are widespread. They also explore a cool new tool called Center IQ that helps directors make smarter financial decisions before problems arise. Really valuable stuff!Thanks for Listening

This week, Ella, Laila, Finley and Simeon join us to talk about surprisingly shallow faith, why its ok to write […]

I was blessed to sit down once again with Pastor Doug Wilson in his Idaho office to discuss a variety of China-related topics, including Trump's China tactics and whether or not Doug thinks he'll ever stand on the Great Wall of China. We also spent quite a few minutes discussing his early years in Japan, which was sort of unplanned. The conversation was fascinating and fun and we only stopped because of time restraints. I have a few more questions that I had to leave for a future conversation. Here's the link to our previous conversation back in the Fall of 2025, of which I wrote the following... In our 30+ minute conversation, we touched on many topics including the Great Leap Forward, Mao’s Great Famine, Doug’s Submarine Adventures with a Taiwanese crew, the China Legacies of Richard Nixon and Jimmy Carter, the Tiananmen Square massacre (and revival), China’s modern-day revival, C.S. Lewis’s 1946 China optimism vs. Doug’s (short-term) pessimism, Hebrews 13:3 and how to pray for the persecuted, and PrayforChina.us’s helpful strategy! https://pubtv.flfnetwork.com/tabs/audio/podcasts/30293/episodes/133 We would welcome donations to help us equip pastors in the Chinese house church network I mentioned in my conversation with Doug.

Understanding how children learn and develop in the early years is key to supporting strong educational outcomes and lifelong wellbeing. Last month, the OECD released findings from the 2025 Early Learning and Child Well-being Study, or IELS, the first internationally comparable study designed to measure how children are learning and developing at age 5. The study looks across 3 key domains: foundational learning, executive function, and social and emotional skills. As we know, the early years from birth to age 5 are a critical period for building the foundations children need to communicate, regulate their emotions, concentrate, solve problems and engage with others. In today's episode, we're joined by Dr Dan Cloney, Senior Research Fellow at the Australian Council for Educational Research and Lead Researcher for IELS here at ACER. We unpack some of the key findings from the study, explore what made the assessment design unique, and discuss why it's so important to ensure every child arrives at school with the strongest possible foundations.

Marcela Zivkovic is back to talk about marriage during the young years of parenting - when babies are needy and time doesn't feel like it belongs to you. She brings her experience with infertility and then young parenthood to talk about ways we can shift the energy to love each other well, be each other's biggest supporters and build relationships that thrive and will bring us joy for years to come (even as the babies get bigger). Come hang out! I can't wait to connect with you! @prettyoverperfect

Another gorgeous day with a high of 75° and plenty of sunshine! Big weekend ahead with my 50th Birthday party tomorrow night, Big Bikes on Saturday, and on Sunday…my wife & I attend our first parade as Oktoberfest Grenadiers! Busy, busy, busy! We started the morning off with the OG "Thursday Song"….along with Pat McCurdy's brief cover of the original. We asked each other hypothetical questions for "Hypothetical Thursday". Brian's question for Jean was: "Everyone on earth takes a private vote by pressing a red or blue button. If more than 50% of people press the blue button, everyone survives. If less than 50% of people press the blue button, only people who pressed the red button survive. Which button would you press?" Jean's question for Brian was: "What is on your bucket list?" And Office Cora joined us just after 8am to let us know what she's up to in the 715 this weekend. In the news this morning, the latest on the Hantavirus cruise ship, another cruise ship in France is dealing with a stomach-flu outbreak, Alex Murdaugh is getting a new trial, a Wisconsin babysitter who left several children in a hot car while getting her nails done gets a plea deal, and the latest on the Watertown school board decision. In sports, the Brewers blew a stellar start by the Miz & lost to the Padres last night. And speaking of the Miz, he once again left the game with some cramping. We talked about last night's NBA & NHL Playoff action and looked at the upcoming schedules. The Royals & White Sox game last night got delayed when a fan fell into the bullpen. And speaking of schedules, the NFL dumped out a bunch of it's games yesterday…ahead of tonight's official schedule release. We discussed what's on TV today/tonight and also looked at Netflix's upfront presentation of it's new stuff. An ice cream truck in Massachusetts is going viral for being kind to children(that's all it takes?). Elsewhere in sports, the Maple Leafs fired their head coach, Katherine Legge is trying for a two-fer, The Big Dumper breaks his hitless streak after showering in his uniform, the NJ Transit prices for the World Cup continue to come down, and the Enhanced Games are coming up next weekend! And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a guy who allegedly found a dead rat in his Monster Energy can, a family that claims they can't leave their house because of a swarm of bees, a dad in Pennsylvania who got arrested for leaving his kid in the car while he played Spooky Spins at a convenience store, and a woman who stole a bottle of wine by shoving it into one of her body cavities.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Following the King's diplomatic success during his state visit to the US, the Princess of Wales stepped back onto the international stage with a visit to the Italian city of Reggio Emilia. Four years on from her last official overseas visit, aides say the Princess is “taking it up a gear” as she resumes foreign travel following her cancer treatment. Kate Mansey and Roya Nikkhah are in Italy with the latest from the Princess' milestone trip. What does her star power abroad reveal about the royal family's enduring international appeal? And what more can we expect from the Princess on the world stage in the year ahead? They also speak to Trudi Seneviratne, a consultant psychiatrist who has worked alongside the Princess on her Early Years initiative since 2017 to find out the inspiration behind Catherine's passion for the project and what the Princess is really like to work with behind the scenes.Get in touch: theroyals@thetimes.co.ukImage: GettyProducer: Natalie KtenaExecutive Producer: Priyanka Deladia Hosted on Acast.

One last VINTAGE episode before we leave "The Early Years of SNL" and move into the Jean Doumanian season.Late in Season 1, Madeline Kahn hosted for the very first time. Delayed by a technician's strike, the show seemed to utilize the extra time as this is considered (by us at least) the best episode of Saturday Night Live's first season—even if Carly Simon had to pre-tape her musical performance.This episode includes some of our favorite sketches of the season including an iconic Baba Wawa, an amazing Bride of Frankenstein musical number, the infamous "Final Days" sketch, and the Marilyn Suzanne Miller-written "Slumber Party."This episode of SNL originally aired 50 years ago this week, and the podcast episode was originally released on August 1st, 2023.---------------------------------Subscribe & Follow today!And follow us on social media: Twitter: @NR4PTProject Instagram: @nr4ptprojectBluesky: @nr4ptproject.bsky.socialFacebook: The Not Ready for Prime Time ProjectContact Us: Website: https://www.nr4project.comEmail: nr4ptproject@gmail.com

Charlie Chaplin's life was fundamentally shaped by his early years in the Lambeth Workhouse, where receiving a single orange for Christmas became a haunting symbol of his poverty. His father died young of alcoholism, and his mother, Hannah Hill, struggled with profound mental instability and syphilis, leaving Chaplin and his brother Sydney to rely on the "tender mercies" of Victorian institutions. Despite his mother's illness, Chaplin idolized her and viewed his entire successful adulthood as an escape from the humiliations of his youth. His brother Sydney eventually introduced him to the theater through Fred Carno, marking the end of their poverty as Chaplin's comedic genius began to emerge. Guest: Scott Eyman. (1/8)1900 LA

Awhile back, during our Season Five look back, we wanted to do a "Deep Thoughts" episode on the Andy Kaufman special, Andy's Funhouse, which aired in the summer of 1979 (though it was filmed back in 1977). We were very excited to get into it with such an iconic performer and one of his biggest showcases. We even had a guest lined up—a proclaimed "expert" on Andy Kaufman. Sadly, the day of recording, our guest ghosted us.We had two choices—postpone the recording and try to reschedule with our unprofessional guest or just push on and record with two guys who have only a surface-level knowledge of Andy Kaufman, skimped on the research (since they were supposed to have an expert on the show), but did spend the time watching the special. We decided to press on, by ourselves, and record our own look back on the special.At the end of the day, we chose not to put the episode out. Not because the episode isn't good (we think it is) but because it wasn't AS GOOD as it could have been. But, in going through the vaults of stuff we have after the end of "The Early Years of SNL," we thought it would be fun to share now.So enjoy our look back on the very first Andy Kaufman television special that is at times very interesting, at other times very befuddling, and at many times very entertaining. Andy brings back many (if not all) of his classic bits and welcomes guest stars like Cindy Williams, Howdy Doody, and Wendy Polland (who?).This was actually a lot of fun.---------------------------------Subscribe & Follow today!And follow us on social media: Twitter: @NR4PTProject Instagram: @nr4ptprojectBluesky: @nr4ptproject.bsky.socialFacebook: The Not Ready for Prime Time ProjectContact Us: Website: https://www.nr4project.comEmail: nr4ptproject@gmail.com

With former President Duterte set to face trial at the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague, we look back at his formative years, long before he rose to power. “He wished his father saw him become a lawyer.” Journalist and biographer Earl Parreño tells Howie Severino that Duterte idolized his father, Vicente, a former Cabinet secretary and governor of Davao, and deeply loved his mother. In his self-published biography, “Beyond Will and Power,” Parreño traces Duterte's early exposure to violence, drawing on accounts from close friends and relatives, as well as the former president's own statements. He details some pivotal moments, including a shooting incident while he was a law student at San Beda. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In this episode of the Fiercely Fueled Nutrition Podcast, Coaches Joni and Bela talk about what they wish they had done differently when they first started training and how those early choices around food and recovery can shape everything that follows.   They reflect on their own experiences with dieting, chasing smaller bodies, and following low carb trends that ultimately hurt performance. Bela shares how years of strict meal plans and overtraining kept her stuck in a cycle of burnout, and how shifting her focus to eating enough, including more carbs and fats, and paying attention to things like sleep and HRV changed not just her training, but how she felt day to day.   The conversation also takes on the influence of social media, where nutrition trends change constantly and often create more confusion than clarity. They get honest about alcohol and its impact on sleep and recovery, the pressure to drink in social settings, and why relying on stimulants to get through workouts can be a sign that something deeper is off.   In this episode, they cover: Why nutrition and recovery matter more than you think early on How dieting and underfueling can hold back your progress What actually helped them feel stronger and more energized The role of carbs, fats, and total calories in performance How alcohol affects recovery and sleep Why needing constant caffeine might be a red flag Whether you are just starting out or years into training, this episode is a reminder that it is never too late to build a better foundation.      APPLY FOR COACHING https://10tkto34p7j.typeform.com/to/aI4uHZgU     Get our free pre & post-training meals guide https://guide.fiercelyfueled.com/podcast    Follow Fiercely Fueled Nutrition:  Instagram: @fiercelyfuelednutrition https://www.instagram.com/fiercelyfuelednutrition/ 

In preparation for an upcoming movie episode, Marc and Jordan look at three classic pairings of Porky and Daffy that illustrate why someone contemporarily would want to explore the dynamic further. This includes Bob Clampett's Porky and Daffy, an animation showcase with a lot of flair, 1948's Daffy Duck Slept Here, which is a variation on the similarly-beloved A Pest in the House, and 1946's Daffy Doodles, a recently-reappraised McKimson venture that runs on pure 40s wackiness. One of these left the hosts in shambles just trying to explain it. Links:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support us on Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow us on Twitter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow us on Bluesky⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow us on Instagram⁠⁠

Today on the podcast, host Lori Boll is joined Hallie Sherman, a licensed speech-language pathologist, author of the new book The Secondary SLP Roadmap, and the CEO behind Speech Time Fun, where she creates materials, training, and support for SLPs working with students in grades 4 through 12. After 17 years in New York public schools, Hallie learned early on what it really takes to motivate older students, build confidence, and help language skills transfer into real classroom progress. In this conversation, Hallie and Lori dig into what speech therapy can look like in the upper grades, the misconceptions that still linger, and practical strategies teachers can use right away to support language and learning.ConnectWebsite: Speech Time FunInstagram: Speech Time FunResources from Today's ShowBook: The Secondary SLP RoadmapDiffit: AI differentiation toolPodcasserole:Think InclusiveGetting Smart PodcastBetter Learning PodcastLiteracy Matters: Empowered ConversationsWhat School Could BeAn Imperfect Leader: The Superintendents and Leadership PodcastCOPAAThe Disability Almanac

Hvorfor er det vanlig hos de aller fleste dyrearter at ungene leker vilt og lekesloss på ulikt vis? Hvorfor er dette nærmest en universell tendens hos dyr? I alle menneskelige kulturer er det vanlig at barn i alle aldre leker vilt og lekesloss med hverandre. Er dette en slags voldelig tendens som vi helst avvenner barn med så snart vi kan, eller bør vi heller forsøke å forstå hva slags positiv aktivitet slik lekeslossing kan ha i barns utvikling, særlig av sosiale ferdigheter? I denne samtalen snakker Lars med Rune Storli, som er dosent ved Dronning Mauds Minne i Trondheim, og som har forsket på barns lekeslossing og boltrelek. Hva gjør egentlig barn når de lekesloss, hva slags ferdigheter utvikler de i disse aktivitetene, og hva berøver vi barn om vi ikke tillater slik lek? Vi snakker om hvordan barn tilpasser leker når de leker med barn i ulike aldre, hvordan inne- og utemiljøet påvirker slike leker, hvordan de voksne kan hjelpe barn med å forstå noen av de kompliserte sosiale signalene som det kreves at man forstår om man skal lykkes i slik lek, ulike behov for denne typen lek hos gutter og jenter, hvordan boltrelek kan og bør foregå i barnehagen, hvordan det som fremstår som aggressiv lek faktisk kan være med på å redusere aggressivitet og gi bedre sosiale ferdigheter, våpenlek, design av lekeplasser og utearealer, og mye annet. Boltrelek og lekeslossing er en form for sosial risikolek som barn behøver, og vi trenger å skape en kultur hvor slik lek blir forstått som et positivt og nødvendig bidrag til barns utvikling.

Wilderness therapy didn't start with therapists—it evolved with the help of an ex-con who found his heart of service to others in recovery. In this episode Will shares the powerful story of Larry Wells—an early pioneer whose lived experience shaped the foundations of early wilderness therapy programs. From his teenage years in jail to his exposure to the outdoors in a federal prison camp, Larry's journey reveals how connection, purpose, and challenge became the roots of a new approach to helping struggling young people through the outdoors. Through the creation of Expedition Outreach in the 1970's,  his work with VisionQuest, SUWS, and others, and then later the founding of Wilderness Quest, Larry helped define the early models of wilderness therapy—often learning through trial and error in real time. This episode explores the evolution of his philosophy from pushing people to their limits toward building connection, safety, and recovery through experiential work in the outdoors. For those in the field—and anyone on a path of recovery—this is a story about how wilderness therapy evolved, what it got right, what it got wrong, and what still matters most.  Mentioned in this episode:  2019 interview on this podcast with Larry Wells's Daughter- Angela Wells Starnes Link to doctoral dissertation with Larry Wells Interview Stories from the Elders: Chronicles and Narratives from the Early Years of Wilderness Therapy This podcast is supported by White Mountain Adventure Institute (wmai.org), offering adventure inspired retreats for men and facilitated by Will White.

Five years ago today, we lost one of the original writers of SNL—the amazing Anne Beatts. One of only two female writers on the staff when the show began, Anne's contributions were vital, formative, and iconic. She was nominated for an Emmy all five years she wrote for Saturday Night Live, winning for her work in Season One. She also won a Writer's Guild of America Award for her work on the SNL 25th Anniversary Special.We highlight Anne's work in this VINTAGE episode of "The Early Years of SNL," which features one of the most memorable outings from some of her most beloved characters—The Nerds. In this Season Three finale, "Nerds Prom"—coming unsurprisingly in the prime "post-monologue" slot—not only continues to build on the world of Todd & Lisa but introduces the character of Marshall (Todd's father), played to perfection by host Buck Henry.This classic original era episode has Buck in an excellent Olympia Café sketch, working with a "Stunt Puppy," attending the "Sodom Chamber of Commerce," and (of course) visiting with the Samurai. In addition, we are treated to one of the most eclectic musical guests in SNL history in Sun Ra.Jon Schneider from The Saturday Night Network was our guest for this episode, which was originally released on October 1st, 2024.---------------------------------Subscribe & Follow today!And follow us on social media: Twitter: @NR4PTProject Instagram: @nr4ptprojectBluesky: @nr4ptproject.bsky.socialFacebook: The Not Ready for Prime Time ProjectContact Us: Website: https://www.nr4project.comEmail: nr4ptproject@gmail.com

Welcome to part one of our multi-part series on parenting. This episode focuses on parenting children ages 0–5, emphasizing how rapid brain development and early attachments shape trust, safety, and emotional growth. Rebecca Maxwell and Jonathan Vinke discuss practical approaches to soothing, teaching self-regulation, setting balanced consequences, the role of play and routine, and concerns about screen distraction—offering realistic guidance rather than perfectionism. Our hope is that as you listen you'll receive encouragement, ideas for community support, and a reminder that consistency, presence, and grace help parents steward these formative years.   For more information on Rebecca Maxwell and her practice, please visit jesusandyourmentalhealth.com

Our look back at Saturday Night Live's original era has come to an end. We wrap up our final episode of The Early Years of SNL, looking back at all five seasons of the original era. We revisit the journey the show took from a trying-it-out-in-real-time “variety” show (S1) to being a truly experimental and edgy platform (S2), exploding into a cultural juggernaut (S3&4), and eventual fall from grace (S5).Looking back, we remember some of our favorite hosts, musical guests, special guests, and pre-tapes. Of course, we also call out what we didn't like. We discuss what surprised us, disappointed us, and highlight our favorite forgotten and underrated sketches (we did a whole episode on best bits).To bring it all to a close, we select our best and worst episodes of the original era. And, we finally answer the question everyone's been asking – “What comes next?” Sort of.Thanks to everyone for listening. “Goodnight, and goodbye.”---------------------------------Subscribe & Follow today!And follow us on social media: Twitter: @NR4PTProject Instagram: @nr4ptprojectBluesky: @nr4ptproject.bsky.socialFacebook: The Not Ready for Prime Time ProjectContact Us: Website: https://www.nr4project.comEmail: nr4ptproject@gmail.com

How did wilderness therapy survive the crises of the early 1990s — and why did some of its earliest leaders continue to believe in the work even as the field faced national criticism? In this episode of Stories from the Field we hear a rare 2008 interview with wilderness therapy pioneer Larry Dean Olsen and his former student and colleague Ezekiel Sanchez. They reflect on Larry's survival courses at Brigham Young University in the late 1960s, where struggling students often returned from wilderness expeditions with new confidence and direction — experiences that helped lead to the founding of the Anasazi Foundation, one of the longest continuously operating wilderness therapy programs in the United States. The conversation also explores the rapid growth of wilderness programs in the 1980s and many of them springing from former students of BYU's survival course, including the development of Challenger Foundation and SUWS, and the intense scrutiny that followed several highly publicized deaths in the early 1990s. Larry speaks candidly about defending the field during that time, arguing that while some programs failed, the core idea — that challenge, responsibility, and time in the natural world can help young people change — remained sound. This episode offers a rare firsthand account from two of the elders of the field. To read the dissertation mentioned in the episode it is available on line- Stories from the Elders: Chronicles and Narratives from the Early Years of Wilderness Therapy I want to thank the Olsen family, Ezekiel Sanchez and Anasazi for letting me share these stories over the years.

How and why did wilderness therapy ignite in the American West? In this episode of Stories from the Field Will explores the life and influence of Larry Dean Olsen, one of the key figures behind the primitive skills model used in many wilderness therapy programs. Through his work at Brigham Young University, including the well-known BYU 480 survival course, Olsen showed that powerful personal change could happen when modern comforts were removed and people were challenged to depend on themselves, the group, and the natural world. This episode looks at Olsen's book Outdoor Survival Skills, his work as a consultant on the film Jeremiah Johnson, his role in the development of early wilderness programs like SUWS, and his co-founding of the Anasazi Foundation and how his philosophy helped shape modern outdoor behavioral healthcare. Often called the father of primitive survival education, Olsen believed change comes through experience, simplicity, and responsibility. This is Part 1 of a two-part series. In the next episode, Will shares a rare interview with Larry Dean Olsen and the other co-founder of Anasazi Foundation, Ezekiel Sanchez. This podcast is supported by White Mountain Adventure Institute (wmai.org), offering adventure inspired retreats for men and facilitated by Will White. To read more about Larry Dean Olsen and the early years of wilderness therapy read Will's doctoral dissertation: Stories from the Elders: Chronicles and Narratives from the Early Years of Wilderness Therapy To listen to an episode mentioned in this podcast how SUWS was founded.

On this week's episode of Artist Friendly, Joel Madden is joined by Ryan Cabrera. After graduating from high school, Cabrera played acoustic guitar in Rubix Groove, opening for Cheap Trick and Third Eye Blind. A solo career came calling, though, leading to early 2000s pop stardom, mall tours, and a platinum album. That eventually segued into guest appearances on The Hills and meeting WWE superstar Alexa Bliss at a SmackDown premiere in LA, whom he married in 2022.

Season Five of Saturday Night Live has come to an end.Brad and Gary look back and discuss what they liked (and didn't), what they learned, and what surprised them from the final season of SNL's original era. They pick their favorite hosts and musical guests, rank the best (and worst) episodes, and – of course – pick their Best Bits of the season. In addition, they highlight forgotten and underrated moments from the season as well as try to agree on who it was that picked up the mantle in the absence of John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd.  They look back at quality contributions from Harry Shearer as well as lament the too-often absence of Garrett and Laraine (and sometimes Gilda). And, after all is said and done, they try to decide if this season really is as bad as history would have you believe.The final season of “The Early Years of SNL” has come to a close.

Carlo Rovelli's quest to understand the nature of reality began not in a physics lab, but in youthful experiments with consciousness, political protest and a restless hunger for meaning—years before he “fell madly in love with physics.” Today, Rovelli is famous for his bestselling books, including "Seven Brief Lessons on Physics" and "Reality Is Not What It Seems," and his pioneering work on some of the biggest mysteries in physics, including black holes and quantum gravity. In a wide-ranging conversation, Steve Paulson talks with Rovelli about his early, profound experiences with LSD; his discovery of the "spectacular" beauty of general relativity and quantum mechanics; his lifelong search for purpose in both the cosmos and his own life; and why scientists need to be politically engaged. Carlo also tells us about the big idea that he'd put in our own wonder cabinet.This interview was recorded at the Island of Knowledge think tank in Tuscany, a project supported by Dartmouth College and the John Templeton Foundation. We also play a short excerpt from Anne Strainchamps' earlier interview with Rovelli that originally aired on Wisconsin Public Radio's To The Best Of Our Knowledge. This Wonder Cabinet episode was not funded, endorsed or affiliated with Wisconsin Public Media or the University of Wisconsin - Madison.--- Deep Time: Carlo Rovelli's white holes, where time dissolves: https://www.ttbook.org/interview/carlo-rovellis-white-holes-where-time-dissolves More from Carlo Rovelli: https://www.cpt.univ-mrs.fr/~rovelli/ ---00:00:00 Introduction & The Chirp of Black Holes00:04:10 Early Years in Verona00:10:00 Falling in Love with Physics00:17:30 Search for Truth00:25:05 Politics of Wonder---Wonder Cabinet is hosted by Anne Strainchamps and Steve Paulson.Find out more about the show at https://wondercabinetproductions.com, where you can subscribe to the podcast and our newsletter.  Wonder Cabinet is hosted by Anne Strainchamps and Steve Paulson.
