On his 25th wedding anniversary, Jeff tucks his daughter Micah into bed and tells her a fairy tale — except this one is true. It's the story of how he met her mother. In this episode, that story unfolds: a freshman art history class in 1988, a late entrance, a grapefruit, and instant infatuation. Jeff traces 25 years of courtship, marriage, and three daughters through fable, wit, and unvarnished tenderness, closing on a wish Micah won't fully understand until she's older. This is the fourth episode of Diaries of a Dance Dad, an audio memoir series in Jeff's own words. It spans the full arc of parenthood: the inhale of birth and early chaos, the grind of no sleep and travel with kids, the gut-punches of failure, and the slow exhale of letting go.

No one has had a greater influence on New South Wales rugby league than Brad Fittler. A Blues legend, Freddy played a record 31 State of Origin matches for NSW before later coaching his state on 18 occasions. But the Origin story closest to his heart came in 2004, when Phil Gould convinced him to return from representative retirement for one final campaign. It wasn't all smooth sailing. The comeback didn't start as planned, but it ended with one of the most memorable fairytale finishes in Origin history. In this episode of Stories of Origin, Brad Fittler relives the 2004 series, his final season in the Sky Blue jersey, the unforgettable decider, and the perfect send-off alongside Phil Gould. A farewell that remains one of the great moments in Origin history.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

While his rivals stack hundred-mile months, senior Carter Smith has built one of the fastest high school seasons in America on simplicity, sleep, and a kick nobody saw coming. Fresh off the wildest stretch of his life—a 3:59.00 mile at the HOKA Festival of Miles; then a 1:48 win in the Brooks PR 800m days later in Seattle—Smith sits down with Dominic to explain how a kid from small-town Pennsylvania got here in barely two years of real training. Carter didn't run cross country until his junior year, when he won a state title after being told it was impossible. As a freshman, he was a 54-second quarter-miler while logging ten miles a week and staying up until 3 a.m. grinding Fortnite. By sophomore year, running twenty miles a week, he split 4:07 at New Balance—and the big schools came calling.Smith breaks down the training that defies convention: thirty-mile weeks; six 200s the Tuesday before his sub-four; bodyweight strength work; chicken-rice-and-broccoli dinners; and eight or nine hours of sleep—because what you do outside the running, he argues, matters most.He talks about chasing the Pennsylvania sub-four-mile lineage of Gary Martin and Drew Griffith. He gets into the 800m state record that is in his sights when he races Josh Hoey on July 9, and why anything short of aiming for Olympic goldisn't worth lacing up for.When talent works hard, he says, crazy things happen. This episode is the proof.Tap into the Carter Smith Special. If you enjoy the podcast, please consider following us on Spotify and Apple Podcasts and giving us a five-star review!

Chaturmukha Mudra -- A Sorta Fairytale (11 June 2010 - Manchester, TN)
Original Air Date: June 2025 Episode Number: 463Episode SummaryThis week on Home In Progress, Dan tells the story of Earl Young -- a self-taught architect from Charlevoix, Michigan who never finished his degree, never drew a blueprint, and never really cared what the architecture establishment thought of him. What he left behind are some of the most unusual homes in the Midwest: curved stone walls, swooping roofs, fireplaces that feel like the center of the universe, and boulders he spent decades hauling out of Lake Michigan. Dan covers the full story -- where Young came from, how he worked, and what eventually happened to the neighborhood he built. Then he takes six design lessons from Young's approach and applies them to homes most of us actually live in.In This Episode[00:00] -- Opening: Rain, Roofs, and a Dead Sprinkler Pump[01:40] -- Charlevoix, Michigan[02:34] -- The Mushroom Houses[05:15] -- Earl Young: Origins[09:05] -- Breaking With the Rules[13:41] -- Vision and Inspirations[16:39] -- No Blueprints[19:31] -- The Boulder Problem[24:24] -- The Weathervane Restaurant and the 9-Ton Boulder[26:26] -- Fireplace as the Heart of the House[28:08] -- Legacy[29:22] -- How to Visit[32:29] -- Six Design Lessons from Earl YoungOpening: Rain, Roofs, and a Dead Sprinkler Pump [00:00]Dan opens with the classic split-brain problem of being a homeowner in summer. He's relieved that rain is coming -- the yard needs it. He is not relieved that rain is coming -- the roof has been suspicious lately. Then, one more thing: the sprinkler pump died. Standard summer. He moves on quickly.Charlevoix, Michigan [01:40]Before getting to the houses, Dan sets the scene. Charlevoix sits on a narrow isthmus between Lake Michigan and Lake Charlevoix. It's a resort town -- the kind of place people drive through and immediately start calculating whether they could afford to move there. It's also the kind of place that, if you grew up on its beaches and walked them long enough as a kid, could do something permanent to the way you see the natural world.The Mushroom Houses [02:34]Charlevoix has a neighborhood most people don't know about unless someone tips them off. The houses there don't look like anything else. Curved stone walls. Rooflines that swoop down low to the ground. Windows tucked into stone like they were always meant to be there. The whole feel of the place is fairy-tale -- which is why people have been calling them hobbit houses, gnome houses, and Flintstone houses for decades.They have an official nickname too: the Mushroom Houses. Named for the way the rooflines spread outward from the walls, sort of like a cap on a stem. Once you know that, you can't unsee it.They were all built by the same man. One man, working from dirt sketches and intuition, over most of his adult life.Earl Young: Origins [05:15]Earl Young was born in 1889 in Mancelona, Michigan. He moved to Charlevoix with his family around age 11. His parents divorced -- which wasn't common then -- and Young spent a lot of time on his own, walking the beaches around town. He wasn't doing anything in particular. He was just out there, picking up rocks, watching water, paying attention to the way the land looked.He fell in love with stones. Big ones specifically. The kind of boulders that Lake Michigan just deposits on the shore like it has nowhere else to put them. Most people walk around them. Young was already thinking about what he could do with them.Breaking With the Rules [09:05]Young went to the University of Michigan to study architecture. He lasted about a year. The curriculum was heavy on classical styles -- Victorian, Greek revival, Roman influence -- and Young had no patience for it. He didn't come to school to copy old European buildings. He went home to Charlevoix.For a while he sold insurance and real estate. He wasn't building yet. But he was watching. He kept picking up rocks.He eventually started building. No firm, no staff, no architecture license. Just an eye for stone, an instinct for how a building should sit on a piece of land, and a willingness to take as long as it took to do things the way he wanted them done.Vision and Inspirations [13:41]Dan identifies three things that shaped the way Young approached his work.The first was Frank Lloyd Wright's philosophy -- not Wright's specific style, but the underlying idea that a building should belong to its site. It shouldn't be dropped onto a lot. It should feel like it grew there. Young took that idea and ran with it in his own direction.The second was his rejection of academic architecture. Everything he'd been asked to learn and repeat in school was exactly what he didn't want to do. The rebellion wasn't just aesthetic -- it was personal.The third was the stones. Young's whole sensibility came from what Lake Michigan left on the shore. The materials weren't a choice he made at a building supply store. They were the starting point for everything else.No Blueprints [16:39]Young did not draw blueprints. When he had an idea for a house, he went outside and drew his plan in the dirt with a stick. He'd sketch the layout right there on the ground, work it out, make adjustments, and that was the plan.His wife Irene was an art teacher. At some point she started translating his dirt sketches and descriptions into actual drawings -- not formal blueprints, but enough that a builder could follow them. The designs came from him. She put them on paper. They worked like that for years.The Boulder Problem [19:31]Young didn't just use the rocks he could find lying around. He hunted for specific ones. When he found a boulder he wanted, he'd sometimes bury it in the woods to keep it safe until he needed it. Or he'd sink it in Lake Michigan and come back for it later.Dan compares this to hiding GI Joes as a kid -- the careful stashing of things you intend to retrieve. Except the things Young was hiding weighed several tons.When it was time to retrieve a boulder, he'd bring in teams of workhorses. No machinery, no cranes in the early years. Just horses, ropes, and however many men it took to move something that heavy across however much ground stood between the boulder and the house.The Weathervane Restaurant and the 9-Ton Boulder [24:24]The clearest example of how far Young would go for the right stone is the Weathervane Restaurant in Charlevoix. He built it. And for that building, he had been saving a single boulder -- nine tons -- for 26 years.When they finally set it in place, the floor sank. The supports weren't adequate for a 9-ton rock sitting on them indefinitely. They had to redo the foundation underneath it before they could move on.Young didn't reconsider the rock. He redid the floor.The Weathervane is still there. The boulder is still there too.Fireplace as the Heart of the House [26:26]Young treated the fireplace as the center of everything. Not a feature of the house -- the heart of it. In a lot of cases the fireplace was the first thing he designed, and the rest of the floor plan grew outward from there.The fireplaces in his houses are big and boulder-built, and they feel exactly as permanent as they look. They're not decorative. They're structural in the emotional sense of that word -- the thing the rest of the room organizes itself around.Legacy [28:08]Young built somewhere around 26 to 28 homes and three or four commercial buildings over his career. His last major project was the Castle House, which he worked on from 1970 to 1973. By then he was legally blind. He designed parts of it by touch -- running his hands over stone and timber to make decisions he couldn't make with his eyes anymore.He died in 1975. His last act, reportedly, was directing the placement of a boulder at the entrance to his neighborhood. Not a plaque, not a sign. A rock. In the right spot.How to Visit [29:22]The homes are private property. You can drive through the neighborhood and see them from the street -- people do that all the time and it's welcome. Just don't go up to the windows. They're people's houses.The Weathervane Restaurant is open to the public. You can eat there, walk around, and see the 9-ton boulder up close. Dan recommends it. Website: weathervanerestaurant.com.Earl Young's personal home is available to rent on Airbnb. If you want to actually sleep in one of the houses, that's how you do it.Six Design Lessons from Earl Young [32:29]Dan spends the back half of the episode pulling practical design lessons out of Young's approach. Not abstract principles -- specific things a regular homeowner can actually do.1. Snag What Speaks to You [32:29]Dan tells a story about a Cleopatra bust he found years ago. Bought it without knowing what he'd do with it. Then built a whole corner of a room around it -- brass candlesticks, an Art Nouveau painting of Cleopatra by a Michigan artist, pieces that fit the theme. The room came from the object, not the other way around.Young did the same thing with rocks. He found something he loved, and let that be the starting point. Most people wait until they have a plan before they start collecting anything. Young's lesson -- and Dan's -- is that sometimes the piece you can't explain wanting is the piece that tells you what to...

There was nothing pretty about Judah and their practices and plight. As you hear Hosea describe God's love for His wayward and unfaithful, the only thing that made it possible was pure grace. Remarkably, it's the same grace that God has brought to our relationship with Him.

President Trump had a full day handling questions about uranium in Iran, a reflecting pool filling with water and his planned trip to the NBA Finals. All while dems say he doesn't communicate and isn't transparent enough. This man is so busy it's incredible he doesn't get things jumbled. He just doesn't. And, just in time for America 250, he has delivered big time cleaning up the nation's capitol. We have the receipts. Ty Masterson changed his mind after doing this podcast and will now be part of the debate Friday night at JCCC. 60 Minutes has reportedly been courting Joe Rogan... don't hold your breath. We share a lesson about teaching your kids instead of letting teachers or media get ahold of their brains. In Sports, Bobby Witt Jr deserves better than what he's getting with the Royals and we aren't talking salary. We ask one, big, sort of annoying question. Pride month is sure fading in sports. And you're about to hear one of the greatest Cinderella tennis stories of all time. In our Final Final, Trump is quite the attraction at a Zoo in Bangladesh.

They recap the first men's semifinal that never happened after Matteo Arnaldi pulled out with an illness minutes before playing Cobolli, likely worsened by Arnaldi's heavy time on court.
