Unser heutiger Gast ist nicht zum ersten Mal bei uns, und das ist kein Wunder. Denn kaum jemand verbindet gesellschaftliche, kulturelle und technologische Entwicklungen so leidenschaftlich und pointiert wie er. Er hat in Wien Kulturanthropologie studiert, ist Speaker, Kolumnist, Autor und lehrt als Dozent Trendforschung. In Frankfurt hat er mit dem „Future:Project“ einen Think Tank gegründet, der Zukunft systematisch neu denkt. Und mit seinem Vater führt er im Podcast „Horx & Horx“ einen intergenerationellen Dialog über Weltdeutungen, Utopien und natürlich: unsere „fucking Zukunft“. Schon in Folge 354 war er bei uns zu Gast, jetzt ist er zurück. In dieser Folge spricht Christoph mit ihm über seine große These einer „dritten Informationskrise“ – ausgelöst durch KI. Es geht um seinen Begriff des wütenden Optimismus, um den Reiz und die Reizbarkeit digitaler Debatten und um die Frage, warum Deutschland droht, seine Chancen zu verschlafen – es sei denn, wir denken unsere Systeme mutig neu. Seit mehr als acht Jahren beschäftigen wir uns in diesem Podcast mit der Frage, wie Arbeit den Menschen stärkt, statt ihn zu schwächen. In über 500 Gesprächen mit mehr als 600 Gästen haben wir immer wieder nach Antworten gesucht: Was verändert sich gerade und was muss sich dringend verändern? Heute fragen wir: Was bedeutet „wütender Optimismus“ – und wie lässt sich diese Haltung angesichts von Krisen und Digitalisierung produktiv kanalisieren? Welche Folgen hat die allgegenwärtige KI für unsere Informationsordnung – und stehen wir damit wirklich an der Schwelle zur nächsten kulturellen Revolution? Warum braucht es neue Machtverhältnisse zwischen den Generationen, wenn Deutschland im digitalen Zeitalter relevant bleiben will? Fest steht: Für die Lösung unserer aktuellen Herausforderungen brauchen wir neue Impulse. Deshalb suchen wir weiter nach Methoden, Vorbildern, Tools und Ideen, die uns dem Kern von New Work näherbringen. Und wir fragen weiterhin: Können wirklich alle Menschen das finden und leben, was sie im Innersten wirklich, wirklich wollen? Ihr seid bei „On the Way to New Work“ – heute mit Tristan Horx.

In this episode of Christian Book Blurb, host Matt McChlery speaks with author Jared Brock about his book 'A Devil Named Lucifer.' They explore the misconceptions surrounding the devil, the nature of evil, and the importance of free will in understanding sin. Brock emphasizes the need to strip away cultural assumptions about the devil and focus on biblical truths. The conversation also delves into the concept of hell, Satan's strategies, and the author's future projects, including a focus on Christian economics.

The devil is a minor character in the grand narrative of God's story. Evil is a result of human free will, not solely the devil's influence. Cultural images of the devil are largely post-biblical and not scripturally based. The lake of fire was created for the devil, not for humans. Satan's appearances in the Bible are infrequent and often misinterpreted. Free will is essential for genuine love and obedience to God. Temptation can be seen as an opportunity for spiritual growth. Avoiding temptation is a practical strategy for Christians. Brock's future work focuses on Christian economics and its implications for society. Sound Bites "The devil is a tiny part of God's big story." "The devil cannot make you do anything." "Avoid temptation as much as possible."

The palace's collection includes unique items that reflect its rich heritage and history. Carmen Alvarez's journey from welcome team supervisor to conservation manager showcases the importance of passion and dedication in heritage conservation. Sound Bites 1. The Lost Dress Discovery (26:15-26:45) "Everyone thought it was lost, but it was in there all along. Just everyone was picturing it white. And because of course the silk with the time and damage, light damage and everything has turned that ivory color... So I found the lost dress. So for me that is something that I hope to be remembered by." 2. The Reused Coronation Gown (5:53-6:10) "After the war, the country was coming out, the clothes rationing. So she didn't want to spend too much money on new garments and everything around it. So she decided to repurpose and reuse what was worn by Consuelo Vanderbilt in 1911 and worn twice." 3. Conservation Challenges (8:08-8:25) "We will never be a museum. We are a living space. So as much as you want to control the environment, environmental levels, like the temperature, humidity, the light levels... When it's hot, we need to open windows." 4. The "Angriest Curator" Method (15:12-15:19) "Normally people say that the best way of conserving things is having the angriest curator shouting at people. So maybe that helps as well." 5. First Thing After Closing (28:43-28:50) "The first thing, hoovering, to be 100% honest. This is so important, actually. The guides... they grab the hoovers and they hoover the whole palace." 6. Winston's Best Decisions (35:53-36:05) "He said that he made the two best decisions of his life, that Blenheim would want to be born and the other one to marry, because he proposed to Clementine, his wife, at the Temple of Diana at Blenheim Palace." 7. Heritage Belongs to Everyone (39:04-39:15) "I'm a believer that heritage does not belong to one single person or a group of people. Heritage is something that is a witness of the past, of the history of a group, a nation." 8. The Roof Reality Check (40:28-41:03) "You walk into the building and you think, my God, this place is incredible. It's so well preserved... But you would never know how many buckets were holding the leaks, the water filtration coming from the actual roof." 9. The Strong 10th Duchess (11:52-12:05) "It's funny because her husband wrote that she was a female general while he was only a captain. I think that represents her character. She was very much involved with the family, with the local community, with the charity." 10. Making History Accessible (45:27-45:40) "We want to do it in a way that we know our guests are gonna enjoy... how can we share the history of Blenheim in different ways. Rather than a printed board, let's do it in a different way."

The conversation wraps up with thoughts on future projects and the significance of enjoying the fishing experience without superstitions. - Leave a Review of the Podcast - Buy our Wild Fish and Game Spices The Art of Venison Sausage Making Guest: Instagram Cut & Retie Podcast Takeaways: Fishing stories often focus on experiences rather than the catch. Self-deprecation and calamities make fishing stories relatable. Fishing culture includes everyone, from casual anglers to seasoned pros. The essence of fishing lies in the community and shared experiences. Food plays a significant role in fishing culture, often overshadowing the catch. Writing about mundane fishing trips can be just as impactful as grand adventures. Building in time to explore local culture enhances fishing trips. Fishing is about the journey, not just the destination. Catch and release is a valid practice in fishing, unlike hunting. Snakehead fish can survive out of water for days. The sarcastic fringe head is a unique and aggressive fish. Dried cod heads are a common snack in Norway, but not commonly chewed. Joe's favorite fish to catch is whatever he's currently fishing for. Toe-tog, or blackfish, is one of Joe's favorite fish to eat. Family fishing adventures create lasting memories. Stinging nettle can be a nutritious addition to fish dishes. Avoid making fishing gear lucky to prevent loss and disappointment. Joe is a forager first, angler third, enjoying the outdoors. Joe is always looking for new projects and opportunities in fishing.
