Have you heard the news? The City of Rome will now be charging a 2 Euro fee to tourists who want to access the Trevi Fountain. Want to throw your coin in? You're going to have to pony up a few more coins that you'd counted on. This week, we talk about the ways a city can change, thanks to rampant over-tourism as well as other factors, and why seeing our city change before our eyes—for better or for worse—often makes us nostalgic for the past. What else used to be free in Rome that now costs money? (Turns out, a lot.) Tune in to our latest episode, and don't forget to share your thoughts—do you think Rome is right to charge an extra fee for getting close to the Trevi Fountain? Or should outdoor attractions be free no matter what? Read about the city's decision to impose this new fee here. ------------------------------------- COME TO ROME WITH US: Our third annual Bittersweet Life Roman Adventure is in the books!

Every year or so, someone with inside knowledge announces a date upon which the world will definitely end. So everyone hunkers down, and then the only thing that happens is every radio station plays R.E.M.'s "It's the End of the World as We Know It (And I Feel Fine)." The apocalyptic event you actually can bank on is an annual occurrence called the Holiday Season. Thus, this. Three Wise Guys: M.

fWotD Episode 3148: Poisoning of Abbot Greenwell Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Wednesday, 17 December 2025, is Poisoning of Abbot Greenwell.Around June 1447, the abbot of Fountains Abbey, in Yorkshire, Northern England, John Greenwell, was poisoned by a monk, William Downom (also Downam). By the 15th century, Fountains was the richest abbey in England, and its abbot was an important figure in local political society. The first half of the century saw it wracked with internal strife, including a disputed election which had violent repercussions and, possibly, embezzlement. Greenwell appears to have brought a degree of peace to the abbey upon his election, but he does not seem to have been popular.Downom poisoned a dish of pottage, which he then attempted to feed the abbot while the latter was sick. Greenwell survived, and the case became notorious. Although it took over a year and discussions with Fountains' motherhouse of Cîteaux Abbey, Downom—who may already have been an apostate—was eventually expelled. Greenwell himself remained controversial and was both accused and accuser in local lawsuits, and later incurred the distrust of King Edward IV for his political leanings. Greenwell eventually resigned in 1471; Downom stayed a monk after being expelled from Fountains and may have joined Kirkstead Abbey in Lincolnshire, following which he disappears from the record.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 02:20 UTC on Wednesday, 17 December 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Poisoning of Abbot Greenwell on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Joanna.

Ivy might be the least likely band to release new music in 2025. After the loss of leader Adam Schlesinger to COVID early in the pandemic, the band had no choice but to end things. Luckily, surviving members Dominique Durand, Andy Chase and Bruce Driscoll came together to flesh out some songs Adam hadn't finished and released the new album Traces of You recently as a proper tribute to their former bandmate. All three of them join us this week to explain how the album came together and if there will be more, what it was like competing for Adam's attention with Fountains of Wayne, and everyone's other side projects. Ivy was special. It's a shame they and Adam are gone, but we have some incredible records to remember them by including Traces of You.

...in which we congregate in autumnal Upper Borrowdale to explore the history of Seatoller. In the company of Steve Uglow – author of Seatoller: History of a Hamlet – we ascend the flanks of High Doat and return to the last Ice Age, when two glaciers carved out a cloistered valley. Reflecting on the likely in-roads made by Norse incomers (did they settle in the valley? maybe), we move into the age of the Monasteries, when lay bothers from Fountains and Furness Abbeys made Borrowdale productive. It was the Dissolution that set Upper Borrowdale on a unique course, the Great Deed of Borrowdale securing the freeholds of farmers, transforming their dwellings and safeguarding the ancient valley-side woods. While the wealthy wad mines of Seathwaite impacted little on back-road Seatoller, the green slate of Honister bought money, miners and cottages to the growing village, and a new private road that opened the pass to motor vehicles. Before subjecting Steve to our quickfire questions (favourite fell – Fleetwith Pike; favourite pub – The Yew Tree; favourite Lakeland season - spring, summer, autumn and winter), we follow Seatoller into the tourist age, and discuss the ‘Cambridge' link with Seatoller House, which gave rise to the remarkable Trinity and Trevelyan ‘Manhunts'. Steve's books are published by Bookcase. You can find volume 1 here: bookscumbria.com/product/uk-books/countryside-and-nature/seatoller-1-monks-monarchs-farmers/ and volume 2 here: bookscumbria.com/product/uk-books/countryside-and-nature/seatoller-2/ You can read more about the Manhunts at medium.com/@Real_XC/pursuit-what-can-be-learned-from-a-manhunt-on-the-fells-0ad18f6cd4f7

We head to an archaeological dig in Rock Springs that's leading to discoveries about the town's former Chinatown and a massacre that took place there over a century ago. Then, we get inside the concert halls in Teton Village where the Grand Teton Music Festival is trying to prove its music isn't just for the highbrow listener. We hear about how a photo camp on the Wind River reservation is becoming a mental health solution for men, and sit down with economist and Jackson Town Councilor Jonathan Schechter to hear why he's holding on to hope for shrinking Jackson's wealth gap following the One Big Beautiful Bill Act.Mid-episode music this week is “Fountains of Rome,” a tone poem from 20th century composer Ottorino Respighi and performed by the Grand Teton Music Festival orchestra.Jackson Unpacked airs locally at 89.1 FM or via live-stream Mondays at 7:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m., and Fridays and Sundays at 12:30 p.m. Support Jackson's only nonprofit newsroom by becoming a member of KHOL today.

Also mentioned: 365 Manners Kids Should Know and Mind Your Manners, B.B. Wolf.Terri's random recommendation is Rhythm and Beat, a shop selling fun music-themed t-shirts including the Things We Did shirt and the My Brain Is Like 80% Song Lyrics shirt (see last week's roundup for a demonstration of how accurate that is). Mentioned: Ridiculously cheap Fountains of Wayne t-shirts, Summerfest.In the archives, we checked in on an episode from 2018 called Pet Patrol.

Don't drink the water! Maya finds out too late that she shouldn't drink the contaminated tap water in her 64 oz. tennis water jug. The water actually had a forced cell phone Amber Alert. Needless to say, she isn't going far from home today. Amy recaps the Nelly concert after the Twins game. You can always count on Nelly! Amy can't say a picture of the pitcher. Try it…it's tough. Maya went to Summerfest in Milwaukee on the 4th of July. She's never done something so not her. Long story short—she kicks it off with an interesting Uber ride, checks into a beautiful, haunted hotel, and dives headfirst into concerts at Milwaukee's Summerfest. Maya does festival math. The lineup is stacked…Everclear, Oates (of Hall & Oats), Chicago, Frost Children, a random cover band, and Fountains of Wayne. Oates' arrangement of the song Maneater is wild! Why are people waiting in the world's longest line for lemonade?!?!? Turns out Maya's demographic is still old men. They love to talk to a "young gal". Also, we just want to have a hot dog at a festival, for Pete's sake! After a lifetime of accommodating everyone, Amy finally puts her foot down and advocates for herself! Public Service Announcement: Just Listen to Chelsea Handler's Book, I'll Have What She's Having. It's a love letter to every woman. Finally, bring back the free summer concerts!
Welcome to the Gnar Couch Podshow, which is like a podcast but with less dignity, more self-loathing, and at least a 50% higher chance of your spouse asking, “What the hell are you listening to?” Picture a virtual dirt jump party where a bunch of underachieving mountain bikers, powerlifting BMX dads, and wannabe nutritional influencers swap stories about getting jacked after 40, sacrificing wildlife on Colorado roads, and trying to hit jumps that are way out of their league—all while waxing poetic about mini horses, chia seed poops, and why enthusiasm for the sport is inversely proportional to one's actual riding skill. Centered around three main themes—obtaining mountain bike excellence, fitness for aging riders, and the dark, sticky underbelly of “enthusiast” culture—this podshow delivers a potent cocktail of sarcasm and fitness advice. Whether you're here to hear tales of gym reluctance and the dignity-obliterating process of learning to powerlift over 40 years old, or you just want to increase your biking skills, rest assured: we're here along with fitness coach Jeff Robertson to help in our own special way. So pull up your favorite moldy couch cushion, pretend you're at Swamp Fest with a cold shower aftertaste, and let Jeff, Cheef, Rob, Jimmy Sniper, and JP prove once and for all that growing old is mandatory, but growing up is strictly optional. Welcome to the Gnar Couch Podshow—the best mountain bike podshow you'll ever regret listening to. Guest profile: Jeff Robertson Check out our store for sick shirts.

I don't know a thing about F1, but if this movie does for F1 what Days of Thunder did for NASCAR, an entire generation of kids are about to dream about being the next Sonny Hayes. And just like Days of Thunder was Top Gun on Wheels, F1 is Top Gun Maverick on…more expensive wheels! Brad Pitt plays Sonny Hayes - an aging multi series vagabond driver who lives for the thrill of driving and the hope that on the track he can feel God's pleasure upon him. (He didn't say it that way in the movie but that was the gist of it.) As a kid he was coming into Formula 1 when he had a devastating accident. It cost him his future to be the next Senna. He went to drinking spiral, bad marriages, then driving taxis, and then found his way into any racing series that would have him and let him try to tame it. And they all did. Sports cars, NASCAR, Off Road, and now F1. His job in this movie, to get a young hot shot up to speed and save the rag tag racing team they're all there with to save their jobs. It's predictable, it's beautiful, it's fun, and it's fast. In a nutshell: awesome.

A federal judge says he'll order that activist Mahmoud Khalil be released from immigration detention. Plus, New Yorkers are voting early at a rate that experts say may signal a transformative shift in the electorate. Also, a bill has passed in the New York City Council that would require the parks department to install at least 50 new outdoor drinking fountains over the next decade. And finally, NYCHA and a pair of developers are awaiting final approval from the federal government. After that, residents of a senior apartment building will have 90 days to move.
Are you walking through a dry season — emotionally, spiritually, or physically? In this episode, Pastor Andrew unpacks Isaiah 41:17–20 and reveals how God shows up not just on the mountaintop, but right in the middle of your valley. When human resources run dry, God opens fountains where you least expect them. Discover how the Lord hears your desperate cry, remains faithful through every drought, and brings supernatural refreshing to barren places — all for His glory. If you've ever felt forgotten in your low place, this message is for you. Because even in the valley, God is still the God of abundance.
Our poll of the day is... Will TJ Oshie jump into the fountains after his big announcement?!
In Episode 24 of Alphas Make Sandwiches, Abbey Blue Eyes, Christy Lupo, Jackie Espada, and Tattooed Teacher get real about the chaos and beauty of motherhood in a world gone mad. The ladies reflect on their own childhoods, complete with lead-painted playgrounds and forbidden water fountains, and contrast that freedom with today's fear-driven, over-regulated environments. They explore the spiritual and emotional toll modern culture takes on families, kids, and especially moms, sharing personal stories about homeschooling, protecting innocence, and raising boys to be warriors. With plenty of laughter, heartfelt moments, and calls for courage, this episode reminds listeners of the sacred mission of motherhood, the value of discernment, and the importance of staying grounded in truth. Whether it's battling bureaucracy or trusting your instincts, these alpha moms are here to inspire and uplift.
We kick off the ep. with garden talk. Why is growing shit so hard? Bury the lead…the ladies recap their epic trip to Boca Raton, FL for Boca's 100th anniversary, featuring a concert with Fountains of Wayne and Weezer. Boca is the weirdest…the restaurants are basic but expensive, everything closes early, but the mayor is dope as hell. The hotel was amazing, and Anthony is the best. Hot tip…the city shuts down at 10 pm, except Cluck Face. BTW, Cluck Face is effing delicious. The Bocca socials could use some work. “We're going to see Weezer in a park.” We had to do a deep dive on the Bocca Mayor's socials. Spoiler Alert: The SOSS gals meet the mayor! Big ups to Mayor Scott Singer. Hit him up on IG @scottsingerusa. At the concert, there are snipers, a sound check, and a cute downtown. The Ladies have some advice about someone trying to be low-key shady about a unisex bathroom. The local weatherman introduces Fountains of Wayne as Fountains of Youth. Maya recounts her friend dying in the pandemic, and what it meant for this reunion. FOW plays with new members and kills it. Welcome to Fountains of Wayne, Max Collins from Eve 6! Well done, sir! The ladies go backstage to say hi. Then, Weezer! The costumes, the interstitials, and all the epic songs! The next day, Maya and Amy practice what Maya calls “hoteling”. Finally, Amy battles the hotel toilet.

Rome not only has more fountains than any city on earth, it also has the most beautiful ones, from the delicate Fountain of the Turtles (nispiration for Tiffany's book Midnight in the Piazza), to the massive Fontanone on the Gianicolo Hill and so many others. In fact, the early 20th-century Italian composer Ottorino Respighi was so inspired by Rome's fountains (four in particular) that he wrote a symphonic poem about them. On this episode from our archives, we talk about the four fountains that inspired this masterpiece, and play some of that glorious music. So pop in your earbuds, close your eyes, and we'll transport you not just to Rome, but to Resphigi's Rome. The Bittersweet Life podcast has been on the air for an impressive 10+ years! In order to help newer listeners discover some of our earlier episodes, every Friday we are now airing an episode from our vast archives! Enjoy! ***Katy's sister Dana has recently been diagnosed with stage 4 agressive brain cancer.
