Podcasts about fairs

Time to learn a brief history on World's Fairs. For show notes and more information check out our website https://www.shebuildspodcast.com/episodes/worldsfairsMentioned in this episode:Frosty & Fired Up

Megan and Erin break down how students and families can turn college fairs into a genuinely useful part of the college search process. Drawing on both student and admissions-side perspectives, they emphasize that preparation, smart engagement, and follow-up are what separate an overwhelming fair from a productive one. The conversation covers how to approach admissions representatives, what kinds of questions actually matter, and how to use college fairs to start meaningful connections with schools. Key Tips for Maximizing College Fairs Prepare in advance Research participating colleges ahead of time and identify schools you want to prioritize. Register early, bring a fully charged phone or charger, and consider bringing a notebook or using your phone to take notes. Know basic facts so you can ask questions that go beyond what's on the website. Be strategic at the fair Start with less crowded booths to build confidence, especially for younger students. Listen in on conversations at busy booths to learn common questions and useful answers. Talk to admissions representatives who are alumni or current students when possible for more authentic insights. Ask smart, specific questions Focus on topics that aren't easily Googleable, such as campus culture, student support services, research or internship access, and typical class schedules. Ask questions that help you understand fit, including geography, climate, and day-to-day student life. Engage thoughtfully Take notes during or immediately after conversations to remember key details. Be respectful of representatives' time while still showing genuine interest. Follow up after the fair Send a brief, personalized email to admissions representatives you connected with. Reference your conversation to reinforce interest and begin building a relationship. Overall, Megan and Erin emphasize that college fairs are most valuable when students approach them with intention. With the right preparation and follow-up, these events can provide clarity, confidence, and meaningful connections in the college search process.

Watching a TV series you like and then going back and watching the same episodes again from a different character's perspective. Napping all day and seeing street festivals at night. Walking around with a tower of flaming candles on your head that keep getting tangled in power lines. Why aren't the modern World's Fairs as exciting as the ones from 150 years ago? Making a couple weeks vanish in lieu of a millennium and a half of leap days. Naming your baby Person Who Packs For Themselves. Naming your baby "Supplanter" The littlest bean that's currently born.

If you've ever ridden an elevator, zipped a jacket, watched IMAX, or tapped a touchscreen, you've experienced the legacy of a World's Fair—whether you knew it or not. In this episode of Matters of Experience, hosts Abby and Brenda Cowan welcome Charles Pappas, one of the world's leading authorities on World Expos, to uncover how these massive, temporary gatherings quietly shaped everyday life.From the Crystal Palace of 1851 London to Dubai, Osaka, and beyond, Charles traces the evolution of World's Fairs through what he calls three eras: products, progress, and panic. Along the way, he reveals how expos introduced groundbreaking technologies, redefined optimism during global crises, and now confront urgent environmental challenges. The conversation explores why these events function as powerful engines of cultural exchange, national identity, and human connection—something no digital platform can fully replace.With vivid stories about iconic monuments like the Eiffel Tower, immersive pavilion design, and moments of pure serendipity, this episode is a love letter to shared, in-person experience—and a compelling argument for why the World Expo still matters today.

60 years ago Wisconsin created the position of "Fairest of the Fairs". Designed to be an ambassador for all fairs in the state, the program is thriving today. Kiley Allan gets a chance to visit with the first "fairest" that started it all. Connie McCallister, was Wisconsin's 1st Fairest of Fairs and says the format was much more relaxed than it is today. She notes that the original competition mirrored the Miss America pageant, featuring swimsuit and formal wear segments. The actual crowning took place on the grandstand stage of the WI State Fair! McCallister says she lived on the fairgrounds during her term, presenting trophies to 4-H participants, appearing in daily parades, and opening nightly grandstand shows for famous entertainers. After her time as Fairest, she worked briefly in Washington D.C. media before serving as a Lutheran minister for 41 years. McAllister emphasizes that while the competition has changed, the fair remains a vital "gift" that celebrates the hard work of 4-H youth and their animals.Warmer weather this week should help with outdoor chores according to Stu Muck.Post Super Bowl, our emphasis is on athletes and agriculture. Dave Bangert is a dairy farmer in Clark County that sits on the Dairy Farmers of Wisconsin board. He's also a coach who knows how sports brings communities together. That's why he believes the investment DFW makes annually to partner with the WIAA in Wisconsin makes sense. Bangert says not only does it connect the dots on dairy nutrition in young people's diets, it highlights the connection that dairy farm families have with student athletes and their communities. Paid for by Dairy Farmer of Wisconsin.What happens when the sports spotlight ends? It could be by the athletes choice or not. What's next? For Marcus Landry, a former UW-Madison Badger basketball player, his playing career ended at 35. Stephanie Hoff learns that Landry found agriculture when his wife sent him for eggs. He returned with 14 chickens instead in the back of her Cadillac Escalade. He jokingly refers to it as providing a "life supply of eggs" rather than just a carton. He says those were initially kept in the living room while he built a coop outside. Today Landry and his family share their farm with students and 4-H members from the area as they work on their business plans for life.

Buyers have been in a constant battle for homes...  But now they may be the ones with the leverage. According to Redfin, in December, there were 47% more home sellers than buyers, which is roughly 631,000 extra, the largest gap in records going back to 2013. Is that the case in Utah? Russel Faucette, Owner of The Stern Team of Omada Real Estate joins the show.

Film has played a role in America's world's fairs since the 1893 Chicago exhibition where a horse galloping was the big cinematic draw. In her latest book project, Dr. Dominique Bregent-Heald, professor at the Memorial University of Newfoundland, explores the history of film at American world's fairs, such as the educational and industrial films shown by corporate sponsors. These spectacles were conceived of as a means to make industrial products and processes entertaining, and to induce fair goers to identify with the film subjects. In support of her work Dr. Bregent-Heald received finding from the Center for the History of Business, Technology, and Society at the Hagley Museum and Library.

Cold and slick days are ahead according to ag meteorologist Stu Muck. He reminds listeners to dress appropriately for the weather and stay safe while driving. When people are walking through the grocery store they are faced with many options. Kiley Allan talks with Charlie Arnot, the CEO at the Center for Food Integrity, to give insight into why consumers will pick certain items. He says farmers should be honest about their products even when it is difficult. The 60th Fairest of the Fairs has been crowned. Kiley Allan has a chat with Kaelie Billingsley of Kenosha County to see what her feeling was when her name was read. Rob Shields, the Chair of the Wisconsin Certified Crop Adviser Board, gives a look at the current agriculture climate from his perspective. Host Ben Jarboe talks with Ryan Yonkman, the Vice President of EverAg to get an update on the dairy industry. He says the signing of the Whole Milk for Healthy Kids Act and the updated Dairy Margin Coverage is good news during the current low prices. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Large portions of what would normally be a Farm Bill have already been included in the "Big Beautiful Bill". That's part of the update from Congressman Derrick VanOrden. The western Wisconsin representative tells Ben Jarboe about several components designed to protect food safety elements, animal health, and international competition. The last of the snow may be gone around most of Wisconsin by the end of the day today. Stu Muck says you're already hearing the gusting winds this morning. That will be a big part of the weather story today and tomorrow. 95% of Wisconsin's total population have made a stop at a county fair or the fairgrounds. That's part of the economic story revealed at the WI Fair Associations annual meeting in WI Dells. Pam Jahnke talks with Ray Alisson, chair of the International Association of Fairs and Expositions, and executive director of the Indiana State Fair. Alisson says that in Wisconsin, fairs contribute over $1.5 billion to the local and state economy. This is part of the story that will be shared with policy makers and local businesses. It's also helping to launch a new phase of questioning focused on the non-financial value of county fairs. The market is still shocked after big numbers were released in Monday's World Ag Supply Demand report. John Heinberg, market advisor with Total Farm Marketing says he heard the deflation in his clients voices yesterday. If there is a bullish element left in the market, it's corn. Heinberg says we need to keep grinding through this girth of corn if there's any hope of trying to reclaim higher prices without a weather event.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I was recently reading the November-December 2025 issue of "Science and Children", a publication of the National Science Teaching Association. In this issue, I read the section, "Science 101" written by Matt Bobrowsky. He wrote an article entitled, "Q: How Can I Make Science Investigations More Creative?" Many teachers do not like science fairs, but there are many ways to have a science festival that avoids most of the issues that impact students, teachers, and families. A science fair can be redesignedj to be less stressful and more genuinely educational by shifting the focus from competition to learning.

In this end-of-year episode, host Peter Bauman (Le Random's Editor-in-Chief) is joined by thefunnyguys (Le Random CEO) and Collection Lead Conrad House to look back on 2025: its biggest storylines, their favorites of the year and what they're watching in 2026.They unpack a defining tension of the year: as crypto-native attention and prices stayed weak, institutional and traditional-art adoption of digital art kept accelerating. The conversation moves through platform and ecosystem shifts (VVV's rise, Verse as gallery infrastructure, Art Blocks nearing the end of AB 500, Fxhash's next chapter). Next is a discussion of “worlds”—protocol stacks getting richer, more modular, and increasingly entangled with AI, physical spaces and simulation.They close with Le Random highlights (including Raster and a more nimble publishing rhythm), personal favorites of the year, and a forward look at Node Foundation in Palo Alto, Canyon in New York, Colección Solo in Madrid, and Zero 10's next iteration in Hong Kong.Mentioned:"Ian Goodfellow on Inventing GANs""THE PEOPLE ARE IN THE COMPUTER—PART I" on Alec Radford (most popular piece of 2025)"The Ultraintelligent Machine and Gaberbocchus Common Room" by Jasia Reichardt and Our 100th article"Drifella III: Room for Complexity" - 4,000+ word deep dive on Evil Biscuit's classic"Parker Ito and Evil Biscuit on Possessed Spirits""Standout Artwork of 2025"Chapters

2025 was a pretty good year for most county fairs in Wisconsin. Jayme Buttke, executive secretary of the WI Association of Fairs, joins Pam Jahnke for a brief wrap-up. One major project that the state undertook this year was an economic impact study. What does a county fair mean financially to the county and the state? Buttke says they'll be sharing that information with members during their annual meeting in WI Dells come January. The snow has largely moved through the state, and now here comes the cold. Stu Muck says if you need to do outdoor chores or patch up any holes - do it today. The weekend will be sub zero. Just like solar arrays, wind turbines and data centers, the cry of "not in my backyard" can be heard when it comes to farms expanding. Stephanie Hoff talks with a farmer caught in some of those conversations. Brad Olson is not only the president of the WI Farm Bureau Federation, he's also a farmer in Polk County where groups are crafting unique ordinances to put heavy constraints on how agriculture grows - IF it can grow at all. Olson says most of these town and county boards are not prepared for the "loud voices" that want to essentially stifle any agriculture growth in their geography. More milk, more milk, more milk. It's the mantra draining the energy from the dairy complex. Zach Bowers with EverAg joins Pam Jahnke to discuss how the industry's approaching the new calendar year with incredible supplies to work through. He says there are some dairy processors that are pivoting to capitalize on the growing protein demand in the U.S.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In 2025 many Wisconsin county fairs were focused on more than just carnival rides and cotton candy. Jayme Buttke, executive secretary of the Wisconsin Association of Fairs says they were also focused on measuring their real worth to their communities, and strategizing how to engage the next group of volunteers. Buttke says there's been an emphasis all year on a state economic impact study initiative that has fairs taking a deeper look at what they bring to their community. Buttke says we've always known about the educational element that's obvious at fairs, but there's also other cultural benefits as well as financial rewards. Buttke says the results of the year long initiative will be a focal point for the 2026 WI Association of Fairs annual convention in January.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This edition, I take my first deep dive into what my guest maintains is the biggest secret ever kept from humanity - the almost total erasure from the official history books of the once-mighty Tartarian empire and its influence on the world.Drawing on content from his two books, ‘Tesla & The Cabbage Patch Kids: Exploring the lost Empire of Tartaria and the Reset of 1776': 2 (Tartaria & the Reset of 1776)/ ‘Rise of the Clones: The Cabbage Patch Babies,' British researcher Guy Anderson joins me for a far-reaching chat encompassing:Freemasonry; Dan Brown's role as a probable gatekeeper; Tartaria; suppressed technologies including those of Nikola Tesla; mud floods' World's Fairs; orphan trains; ‘Cabbage Patch” babies; the proliferation of Victorian Era “lunatic asylums'; the Georgia Guidestones; systematic population reduction; family bloodlines; Revelation of the Method; the “elite' belief in karmic retribution, and more.Guy's website is here:https://thetartarianempire.co.uk/His books can be found here:https://www.amazon.co.uk/stores/Guy-Anderson/author/B0DJBRW42W?ref=sr_ntt_srch_lnk_4&qid=1763026792&sr=8-4&isDramIntegrated=true&shoppingPortalEnabled=true#Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/good-vibrations-podcast--2594848/support.

In this week's episode of the ArtTactic Podcast, host Adam Green speaks with Arun Kakar, Senior Art Market Editor at Artsy, about the European fall art fair season, focusing on Frieze London and Art Basel Paris. The conversation explores whether London's strong showing this year signals a genuine comeback, how Art Basel Paris's new Avant-Première preview affected the fair's atmosphere, and how sales compared between the two events. Adam and Arun also highlight the most talked-about gallery and museum exhibitions across both cities and reflect on what these two weeks reveal about the evolving balance of power between London and Paris in the international art market.

There's something about the World's Fairs that has always captured my imagination. Whenever I read about them or stumble across old photos or souvenir postcards, I feel like I'm looking into a time when humanity wasn't just dreaming about the future—we were building it in real time. As someone who spends a lot of time researching history and genealogy, I find myself wondering what my ancestors must have thought when they walked through those incredible pavilions or gazed up at structures the world had never seen before. The World's Fairs weren't just exhibitions—they were moments where the world agreed to press pause and marvel together. They combined science, culture, and art with an optimism that feels rare today. Many of the things we rely on or enjoy daily had their public debut at a World's Fair. And while we still have high-tech expos and industry conventions, nothing quite compares to the scale, the spirit, and the wonder of a true World's Fair...

Step inside the glittering “White Cities” of the late 1800s and early 1900s—vast World Fairs filled with palaces, domes, electric lights, and architectural wonders said to be built in record time… only to vanish within months. Were these grand expositions really just temporary celebrations of progress, or part of something far stranger?In this episode, we explore the peculiar mysteries of the World Fairs: how entire cities were constructed and demolished with suspicious speed, the role of devastating fires that erased whole districts, and why some believe these events were part of a deliberate Great Reset. We'll dive into mud flood theories, the lost civilization of Tartaria, and the idea that fair architecture may have tapped into forgotten energy sources like aether.By the end, you'll be asking the same question many others have: were the World Fairs really about showcasing the future—or hiding the past?Learn more about this episode at: https://gubbahomestead.com/podcast/the-world-fairs-aether-and-the-great-reset/Shop Gubba Homestead Products: https://shop.gubbahomestead.com Follow Gubba Homestead onInstagram | Youtube | X | Pinterest

Meet Charles Pappas - Mr World Fair. Charles likes nothing more in the world than a Universal Exhibition, especially if it's one of the seven that were hosted in Paris. In fact, he's written the book on the topic.  I met him on a road-side terrace at Harvest cafe in the 11th arrondissement to talk Paris, Haussmann, coffee, and of course, World Fairs.  His new book is: Nobody Sits Like the French: Exploring Paris Through Its World Expos, a historical guidebook on how these World Expos, held between 1855-1937, transformed the city of Paris forever. The music in this episode is from Pres Maxson. *********** The Earful Tower exists thanks to support from its members.

Episode 97 features a conversation with Stijn Fawkes, a Dutch-born Germanic pagan, leader of the Tribe of the Greyhorn Pagans, and host of the Greyhorn Pagans Podcast. Stijn brings his passion for European pagan traditions, alternative history, and the power of story in shaping our collective consciousness.At the heart of our conversation is the great question of Tartaria. Was there truly a lost civilization whose memory has been buried through mudfloods, timeline deceptions, and the rewriting of history? Together we examine how the World's Fairs, ancient myths, and suppressed knowledge may point toward a deeper mystery about humanity's past.From Arthurian legends and tribal traditions to crop circles, cymatics, and the wisdom of the old gods, this dialogue is a journey into both the seen and unseen forces that shape our world. Stijn shares insights on community resilience, pagan revival, and the role of story in reclaiming our connection to the sacred.Connect with Stijn and the Greyhorn Pagans: greyhornpagans.comhttps://t.me/greyhornpagans https://www.instagram.com/greyhornpaganshttps://x.com/GreyhornPodcastGreyhorn Pagans podcast:https://open.spreaker.com/KBNzA3KFnoiHMFaQ7 https://youtube.com/@stijnfawkes

Church festivals and fairs become a big topic of conversation.

A new wrinkle to the ongoing Cam Heyward contract saga involves the possibility of him missing regular season games. Poni, warning folks to take his words with a grain of salt, said he's heard from more than one person that Cam is really considering sitting out meaningful football. In the court of public opinion, fans have already turned on Cam, for the most part. It's getting hard to blame the fans for how they are feeling right now. Are the Steelers the ones dropping the ball here? Church festivals and fairs become a big topic of conversation. Judge Donny – Did Cam Heyward tarnish his legacy?
