On July 6, 1944, an estimated 7,000 people, mostly women and children, gathered at the Barbour Street fairgrounds in Hartford, Connecticut to see the Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Baily Circus. Inside the big top tent, the lion show had just ended, and the Flying Wallendas were getting ready to begin their performance when the tent caught fire, sending the large audience into a panic as the spectators and performers rushed to get to safety. The tent, which had been coated in paraffin wax, was quickly engulfed in flames and by the time the fire was put out, 139 people were dead and hundreds were badly injured. In the weeks that followed, another twenty-eight would die from their injuries. At the time, the Hartford circus fire was one of the worst fires in American history, and it remains one of the biggest tragedies in the state's history.

The future Fr. Michael was having a difficult time praying to the heavenly Father. Where was the response? As a seminarian, he just wasn't hearing anything from above. Then, one day, he took the advice of Jesus. The Son of God has told us in Scripture that the way to the Father is through the Son. So, Michael, who was behind the wheel of his old pickup truck took his prayers to Jesus. 'Show me the Father,' said young Michael. He glanced to the right passenger seat and found a smiling Jesus looking back at him. That was the beginning. You are a beloved adopted son or daughter of the Father. Back in the early days of the church, it was Roman law that if you found your newborn child to be defective, you could throw the child away. Just leave it on the side of the road. However, if you adopted a child, you were not allowed to disown the child. You were bound together forever! We need to remember that as we walk through life's journey. We are forever His adopted children. He is always there and loving us as no one else can. Unfortunately, because we all have defective fathers, and perhaps a defective way of looking at the 'Old Testament God,' we may be approaching Him in a defective way. Fr. Michael Denk relives his supernatural experience with Jesus in the cab of his truck, as well as the best way to approach Him in prayer. And then there is Trapper and his dad's interesting way of welcoming newborns into the world. The Flying Wallendas would've loved it!

We're covering The Undertaker's earliest days as a tag team specialist and his debut for a major wrestling company on an all new Talking Taker! Join wrestling superfans Alex Doriot and Travis White on their encyclopedic exploration digging up The Dead Man as we take the time-traveling hearse back to WCW in early 1990 and Mean Mark Callous's short-lived run as part of The New Skyscrapers alongside Dangerous Danny Spivey. It's a brief run of less than 10 televised matches, but it's an incredibly important and formative run in Taker's career including the origins of his relationship with ol' Peanuthead himself Teddy Long and his first exposure to his future finishing move. We're breaking down every one of those televised matches against some of the most ridiculous jobbers you've ever seen and culminating with a couple of wild brawls with the greatest tag team of all tiz-iiiiime, The Road Warriors! Along the way we lose our minds laughing at the likes of Zan Panzer, The Galaxians, Agent Steele, ridiculous commentary from Kevin Sullivan and Terry Funk, incredible haiku poetry from Hawk, Gordon Solie's resemblance to Harry Caray, Dan Spivey's college football credentials and JR's obsession with them, The Flying Wallendas, the brotherhood of the traveling mask, deadly elementary school chairs, Thomas Dewey, 10 items or less lines, the Wild Thing Rap, and the embarrassment that was The Masked Skyscraper.    All that and we've got another month's worth of Undertaker sightings to discuss including a big interview on Busted Open and some highlights from Six Feet Under. Plus Alex shares about his experience watching Smackdown live from a suite and meeting up with a Pod Street Krew member in real life! Download, enjoy, and Taker Easy!    Show your P.S.K.

On July 6, 1944, in Hartford, Connecticut, thousands of patrons were excited to escape the heat and attend the Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey circus performance. While the Flying Wallendas began their performance inside the tent, chaos ensued shortly after. The fire that began as a small flame about 20 feet from the main exit spread rapidly when it came in contact with the tent canvas. Panicked patrons ran for the exits as the flames grew to 100 feet high, only for many to be blocked by animal cages and bottlenecks. In today's episode, we explore one of the worst fire disasters in United States history that injured more than 700 people and killed nearly 170. "Crimes of the Centuries" is a podcast from the Obsessed Network exploring forgotten crimes from times past that made a mark and helped change history.

What blood pressure is normal? How much is a car worth? And we're not saying it was aliens, but... was it aliens? Crash through these questions and more as we cover Season 4, Episode 3 of Family Matters. Alex Diamond, David Kenny, and John McDaniel heard that the long-running network sitcom Family Matters ends with side character Steve Urkel going to space. And the best way to figure out how that happened - obviously - is to watch the last episode first and make our way backwards through nearly ten years of television.Join our countdown to number one (and our slow descent into madness) in all the places you expect internet people to be:Website: jumpingtheshuttle.spaceEmail: jumpingtheshuttle@gmail.comInstagram: @JumpingTheShuttle / @ThatAlexD / @dak577Twitter: @JumpingShuttle / @ThatAlexD / @dak577TikTok: @JumpingTheShuttle / @ThatAlexD / @dak577Brought to you by Smooth My Balls

In the latest episode of the Empowerography Podcast, my guest is Sariya Saabye. Dr. Sariya Saabye wasn't supposed to be an ultramarathoner.  As a 4'9” retired world team power tumbler, she certainly didn't have the build to be an endurance runner.  She was expectedly terrible at it and chronically injured for 5 years despite doing everything she knew to do as a licensed physical therapist, until she shifted her mindset and decision-making. She not only quickly became a healthy barefoot ultramarathoner, but was recruited by Harvard University to start a national running center and teach others to do the same.  Dr. Saabye's mission is to help others avoid the struggles with overwhelm that nearly ended her life.   Today she uses her expertise in eliminating overwhelm and distraction to help Flying Wallendas do handstands on the high wire, acrobats achieve careers with Cirque du Soleil and the WWE, and entrepreneurs decrease work hours while increasing their bottom line.  These principles even allowed her to complete the world's longest non-stop boat race with only 4 hours of kayak experience.  Her message is clear: with strategic elimination and the power of less, anything is possible. In this episode we discuss minimalism, burning it all down to the ground, mindset, mental health struggles, the written vision and the burning question, will this help me beat the reaper.   Email - booking@sariyasaabye.com LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-sariya-saabye-0557718a/   In this episode you will learn: 1. How to adopt a minimalist lifestyle. 2. How to create a written vision. 3. How Sariya beats the reaper EVERY TIME!   "I feel like the best coaches. Are the people who have been there, done that and they've been through those struggles, and now help those people with those struggles" - 00:05:26 "So in simple terms, a minimalist is someone who approaches every aspect of their lives with extreme intentionality and performs frequent and ruthless edits." - 00:30:31 "I think it's just that we're created perfectly to begin with and we need to lean into that and optimize that perfection that's already within us" - 00:50:01   THE WORLD needs to hear your message and your story. Don't deny the world of that gift within you that the universe has gave to you. Someone out there needs to hear your story because it will support them in feeling hope, inspired and even transformed.

When it comes to you and your business with regards to growth, there seems to be two equal but wildly different camps that folks will settle into - like "A Tale of Two Cities" or the twins from "The Parent Trap" movies (Hayley Mills or Lindsay Lohan, take your pick). Either you get way too excited (think that episode of Saved By the Bell with Jessie Spano and the caffeine pills) and you buy up equipment or hire personnel you think you need without the revenue backing and true growth to support it ... or you're the micromanaging money miser (think Ebeneezer Scrooge pre ghostly visits) that has the money and the numbers to back up growth, but you're reluctant to pull the trigger and you stunt your growth due to lack of support. It seems like a no-win scenario no matter what, like you're a Starfleet captain facing the Kobayashi Maru training exercise. And, not unlike a young Captain James Tiberius Kirk, our boys Sid and Keith here at The Overlap Podcast are going to hack the scenario and find a way for you and your company to win. It's a fine balance to figure out strategic growth, but our boys will make like the Flying Wallendas and have you right in that sweet spot of appreciating opportunities while maintaining strategic, sustainable growth. This week's episode is a must listen for any industry so that you and your business may ... live long and prosper.

Let's face it…feet are, for the most part, pretty gross. I mean, sure, there are entire OnlyFans accounts for dudes who love feet. But, by and large…those little piggies need to stay covered the f**k up! And for you weirdos that enjoy THAT kind of action, look no further than the TLC show, “My Feet Are Killing Me” for some of the most beat up feet you'll ever see. We talked to one of the show's stars, Dr. Sarah Haller this morning, and lord knows…she's seen things you can't unsee. PLUS… Nick Wallenda is truly The King of the High Wire! A 7th generation member of the legendary Flying Wallendas, he holds 13 world's records, walked across the Grand Canyon, Niagra Falls and the Masaya Volcano in Nicaragua…and that's just scratching the surface! And now he's bringing his Zirkus show back to Silver Dollar City!!

And with the news of the Love Ranch South going on the market for $1.2 million, we felt like it was time to catch up with our old friend, who is getting ready to open the Bunny Ranch back up after Covid restrictions kept them closed…and she's ready to make it bigger than ever!

     In this episode of Talk Stupid 2 Me, the guys examine the wide world of daredevil stunts.  Although Evel Knievel seems to remain the most famous daredevil, The Flying Wallendas preceded the high flying motorcycling madman, and the family continues to achieve amazing wire walking feats to this day.Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/talkstupid2me)

The Flying Wallendas earned fame and a reputation as circus daredevils for performing stupendous acts of balance on a high-wire. Yet, even the uncanny skill with which they performed their incredible seven-person chair pyramid stunt pales in comparison to the balance required by parents of children who learn differently when it comes to walking the tightrope of when to push your child and pushing too hard. Good parents want the best for their kids. And sometimes, children need a nudge. But what is pushing too hard? In this episode, we'll learn how a collective of Florida exceptional student education charter schools serving students with learning and learning-related disabilities negotiates that fine line. Next, we'll drill down on the topic and suggest some strategies for parents in our “Ask the Experts” segment. And, we'll close out the program with this month's “Difference Maker,” British micro-artist Willard Wigan, the brilliant creative who found that big things come in the smallest of packages. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/a-world-of-difference/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/a-world-of-difference/support

Host Lucas Miles is joined by author and performer, Nik Wallenda. With 11 Guinness World Records and a list of never before seen death defying feats, Nik Wallenda has written his name in history as truly the “King of the High Wire”. Nik has performed live in every state in the USA and all over the world. He has garnered the support from tens of millions of live viewers in network television specials on ABC, The Discovery Channel and others. From crossing the Grand Canyon and Niagra Falls to walking blindfolded between two towers in Chicago, Nik personifies the Wallenda Family legacy of “Never Giving Up” and has time and time again proven that “Fear is a Liar”.

Nik Wallenda is the face of the Flying Wallendas, the famous circus family known for performing crazy feats without safety nets. Nik is also known for his daring televised tightrope walks, including over Niagara Falls, the Grand Canyon, and, in 2020, he will walk over an active volcano.   Nik is a seventh-generation member of the Flying Wallendas and has been walking the wire since he took his first steps, but he had never experienced fear until a tragic accident in 2017. The eight-person pyramid he and several members of his family were practicing collapsed, and five of its members fell thirty feet to the ground. Miraculously, they all survived, but the accident changed Nik's life forever. For the first time, he felt fear, and he had to learn to get past it to get back out on the wire.   Most of us will never walk a tightrope, but we face things that scare us every day. Whether putting ourselves out there socially or seeking a dream job, all of us allow anxieties and fears to hold us back. Facing Fear is a reader-centric memoir, interweaving parts of Nik's personal story of the accident and how he conquered his fear with practical advice for readers to overcome whatever fears are holding them back. This practical book will help everyday people step out in faith and trust that God will hold them steady, even when they're afraid.   Get Nik's book Facing Fear: Step Out in Faith and Rise Above What's Holding You Back.   For additional show notes, visit ShaunTabatt.com/485.   The Shaun Tabatt Show is part of the Destiny Image Podcast Network.

Happy Friday! This week on Life in a Leo, I interviewed one of my friends and fellow judges, Kathi Ortiz. Kathi is currently living in the Chicago area and got into the sport of gymnastics in 1968. In addition to being a successful gymnast, Kathi was also a coach, club owner, and a very well respected judge. Kathi has had the honor of judging NCAA National Championships four times and was one of two judges on the bars panel at the 2018 Nastia Liukin Cup, in addition to judging plenty of states, regionals, and national JO competitions. One of the other really cool experiences Kathi had was performing with The Flying Wallenda's. The Flying Wallendas is the name of a circus group, most known for performing highwire acts without a safety net. Hope everyone is having a great summer!

It's Episode #79 and we are seizing the day and sitting down with Tony Award winning Lighting Designer Jeff Croiter. Jeff has a wide ranging career and we're talking about all sorts of projects. Cory and Jeff discuss his recent design of the Big Apple Circus and how one goes about lighting jugglers, horses and the Flying Wallendas as well as his new relationship with Penn & Teller and what goes into lighting two of the most famous magicians in the world. He also discusses the prominent role lighting played in “Bandstand” and how he got 75 old fresnels to change color all night long and of course we're talking about the genesis of his design for “Peter and the Starcatcher” and how it has become a genre of design in itself. Other topics include how smaller gigs led to his Broadway career, how he cues quickly and efficiently in the theatre, and we get a surprise appearance from Willa the dog and the lovely and talented Kate Wetherhead!

Balance is essential. It stops us falling over or getting too cross and it stops machines failing catastrophically. There are also very fine balances present, more generally in nature and across the universe. But much of the World is not in exact and perpetual balance - it needs constant fine tuning. To help explore our latest understanding of balance in human beings, machines and music, Bridget Kendall talks to Patricia Kopatchinskaja, the distinguished Moldovan-Austrian violinist, who explores the internal balance need to play world class music; Jade Kindar-Martin, high wire artist and member of the Flying Wallendas who examines the fine tuning of mind and body needed to keep in balance on a high wire; Professor Andrew Heyes, head of Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at the University of Strathclyde, in Scotland who looks at the very fine balances needed to ensure machines work effectively and safely.
