Podcasts about heirlooms

I'm honoured to bring to you this in-depth conversation with the brilliant musician, writer, composer and storyteller Gabriel Kahane as my first episode of Season 6 of this podcast. You'll be hearing many short clips from several of his albums including his piano concerto Heirloom, written for his father Jeffrey Kahane. This is a wide-ranging interview and you'll hear about Gabriel's upcoming book project, the impact of his early theatre training, how learning to conduct is helping him as a composer, and reflections from his hiatus from the internet and social media. Fans who love Book of Travelers and Magnificent Bird will hear clips and insights from those projects and we also got into his work as an artist-citizen in his large-scale work “emergency shelter intake form” commissioned by the Oregon Symphony about homelessness and the housing crisis.

Send us a textA Starlink meltdown, two missing Terriliums, and the cleanest long-neck builds you've seen—this one is part comedy of errors, part masterclass in the art of putters. We sit down with David Trett of Jet Putters to trace his unlikely route from college basketball to Dallas golf, where resort events, caddie loops, and indoor fitting bays turned into a crash course on performance gear and player psychology. Along the way, he learned to restore and customize putters—and now he shares the process live, sanding down the secrecy that usually shrouds the craft.We get hands-on with the details golfers actually feel. David breaks down why long necks can neutralize torque, how shifting the neck axis toward center changes face rotation, and when deeper milling softens sound without muting feedback. He shows how compact heel-to-toe profiles can sharpen alignment, and he experiments with left-hand neck flips to chase true zero torque. It's shop-floor truth instead of brochure buzzwords—useful for anyone debating face-balanced vs toe-hang or wondering whether a different neck could steady their stroke.There's a candid look at the live selling boom too. As the golf category on Whatnot exploded, volume and “games” reshaped pricing overnight. David explains how he reframed shows as marketing and community—teaching in late-night garage streams, fielding custom orders, and accepting the gritty reality of packing, split shipments, and the rare nightmare of unscanned boxes. The nostalgia thread runs strong: Mizuno blades, Zebra putters, burner bubbles, and proof that smart targets matter more than model year. We trade architecture notes—from the fairness of Sawgrass to the optical mind games of Whistling Straits, the beauty and brutality of French Lick, and why Ross parkland designs reward conviction.At the center of it all is meaning. Heirloom restorations for families, a Blue Angels-inspired Phantom for a retiring Navy veteran—projects that tie craft to memory. If you love custom putters, Scotty Cameron Terrilium, long neck mods, zero torque setups, and real talk about gear, you'll feel at home here. Tap play, share it with a golf friend who tinkers, and leave a review to help more gear nerds find us.Support the showSpecial thank goes out to our show sponsors:

"Even Santa Claus sometimes hides in the most unexpected places."It: La statuetta tornò al suo posto d'onore, e il chiacchiericcio nella trattoria si trasformò in una storia di mistero risolto, che

The second of many from the haul from the New York State Cider Festival, Dan resamples Orchard Hill Cider Mill Heirloom Bold Complex. Orchard Hill Cider Mill Heirloom Bold Complex STYLE: Cider – DryINGREDIENTS: NY State Heirloom Apple varietiesABV: 7.0%AVAILABILITY: 16 oz. cans/Draft (Limited)Stats above taken from the brewery’s can and website. Appearance Straw yellow/light gold in color, slightly hazy, and with a bit of large-bubble carbonation. Aroma Freshly pressed cider apple flesh and a delicate sweetness behind it. Taste Fresh cider apple all the way with a faint sweetness near the finish. Mouthfeel Bone dry, with a light body and soft carbonation. Overall Dry ciders are generally more in my flavor presence, so this one feels right at home. The fact that this has zero added sugar is nice, especially for those that are watching the sugar/carb intake. Lighter fare like flatbreads or chicken dishes is what I was feeling, though it could be fun as a lead off for brunch with apple cinnamon pancakes or other complementary dishes. Cheers and remember: Life’s a tap…drink up ’til it’s dry. All music on this show came to us from the now defunct Music Alley.Intro: “Meet Me At The Bar” by The Beer Drinking FoolsOuttro: “Bubblegum and Beer” by The Supersuckers The post Episode # 430: Heirloom Bold Complex appeared first on Life On Tap.

Fluent Fiction - Hindi: Heirloom Mystery: A Winter's Tale of Trust and Unity Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/hi/episode/2025-12-13-08-38-20-hi Story Transcript:Hi: ठंड के मौसम में बर्फ से ढकी पहाड़ियों के बीच एक बड़ा और पुराना सा घर था।En: Amidst the snow-covered hills in the winter season, there was a large and old house.Hi: उस घर में इकठ्ठा होती थी रागिनी, अर्जुन और प्रणव की छोटी सी दुनिया।En: In that house gathered the small world of Ragini, Arjun, and Pranav.Hi: रागिनी, अपने माता-पिता की बड़ी संतान थी और पारिवारिक परंपराओं की ध्वजवाहिका।En: Ragini, the eldest daughter of her parents, was the flag bearer of family traditions.Hi: वह चाहती थी कि इस बार का पारिवारिक मिलन अच्छा हो, ताकि माता-पिता खुशी महसूस कर सकें।En: She wanted this family reunion to be special so that her parents could feel happy.Hi: परंतु, वह यह भी जानती थी कि उसकी कुछ नियंत्रणप्रियता कभी-कभी परेशानी खड़ी कर सकती थी।En: However, she also knew that sometimes her controlling nature could cause trouble.Hi: अर्जुन, जो बीच की संतान था, अक्सर पारिवारिक बातचीत में अनदेखा कर दिया जाता था, पर उसका परिवार की पुरानी कहानियों में गहरी दिलचस्पी थी।En: Arjun, the middle child, was often overlooked in family conversations, but he had a deep interest in the old stories of the family.Hi: प्रत्युत्तर में, प्रणव था, जो परिवार का सबसे छोटा सदस्य और हमेशा से कुछ ज्यादा ही रहस्यात्मक।En: Then there was Pranav, the youngest and always somewhat enigmatic member of the family.Hi: वह अक्सर खुद को कम कद्र का महसूस करता था।En: He often felt undervalued.Hi: सर्दियों की इस मिलन की शुरुआत अच्छी हो रही थी।En: The beginning of this winter's gathering was promising.Hi: खिड़कियों पर टकराती बर्फ और घर के अंदर जलती हुई आग की गरमी ने माहौल को और सौम्य बना दिया था।En: The snow tapping on the windows and the warmth from the fire burning inside made the atmosphere more pleasant.Hi: लेकिन, कहानी में एक मोड़ तब आया जब एक जरूरी पारिवारिक धरोहर गायब हो गई।En: However, a twist in the story came when an essential family heirloom went missing.Hi: वह एक पुरानी कंगन थी, जो पीढ़ियों से चली आ रही थी।En: It was an old bracelet that had been passed down through generations.Hi: रागिनी को शक हुआ कि इसे उसके भाई-बहनों में से किसी ने लिया है।En: Ragini suspected that one of her siblings might have taken it.Hi: रागिनी उलझन में थी कि वह अर्जुन और प्रणव से सीधे-सीधे पूछे या अपनी जांच खुद करे।En: Ragini was confused about whether to ask Arjun and Pranav directly or to investigate on her own.Hi: इस बारे में सोचते हुए, उसने यह निश्चय किया कि वह किसी को बिना कारण दोष नहीं देगी और खुद ही जांच करेगी।En: Thinking about it, she decided not to blame anyone without reason and to conduct her own investigation.Hi: एक शाम, जब सभी ने बैठक की, रागिनी ने अपनी खोज जारी रखी।En: One evening, when everyone had gathered in the living room, Ragini continued her search.Hi: उसने कमरे के कोने-कोने को देखा।En: She looked in every corner of the room.Hi: तभी, अर्जुन को बातचीत में खींचते हुए रागिनी ने पूछा, "क्या तुमने कुछ देखा?En: Then, pulling Arjun into the conversation, she asked, "Did you see anything?"Hi: ""नहीं, दीदी," अर्जुन ने दृढ़ता से जवाब दिया।En: "No, didi," Arjun replied firmly.Hi: "लेकिन हमें प्रणव से पूछना चाहिए।En: "But we should ask Pranav.Hi: उसने शायद किसी से कुछ कहा हो।En: Maybe he mentioned something to someone."Hi: "प्रणव उस वक्त घर के बाहर बर्फ से खेल रहा था।En: Pranav was playing outside in the snow at the time.Hi: रागिनी और अर्जुन उसके पास गए और कंगन के बारे में पूछा।En: Ragini and Arjun went to him and asked about the bracelet.Hi: प्रणव ने कुछ देर खामोशी रखने के बाद स्वीकार किया, "वह मैंने लिया था।En: After a moment of silence, Pranav confessed, "I took it.Hi: मेरे दोस्तों को दिखाना था, ताकि वे जान सकें कि मैं भी एक महत्वपूर्ण परिवार से हूं।En: I wanted to show it to my friends so they would know that I am also from a significant family."Hi: "रागिनी के चेहरे पर हल्की सी मुस्कान आ गई।En: A slight smile appeared on Ragini's face.Hi: वह समझ गई कि प्रणव का उद्देश्य सिर्फ परिवार के उस हिस्से को महसूस करना था, जो उसे लगता था कि वह खो चुका है।En: She understood that Pranav's intention was only to feel a part of the family, which he felt he had lost.Hi: उसने प्रणव को गले से लगाया और कहा, "परिवार की सबसे बड़ी धरोहर तुम हो, छोटू।En: She hugged Pranav and said, "You are the greatest treasure of our family, chotu.Hi: हमें गर्व है तुम पर।En: We are proud of you."Hi: "इस घटना के बाद, रागिनी ने खुद को थोड़ा बदलने का निर्णय लिया — वह ज्यादा विश्वास और सहयोग के साथ अपने भाई-बहनों से जुड़ने लगी।En: After this event, Ragini decided to change herself a bit — she began to connect with her siblings with more trust and collaboration.Hi: वहीं, प्रणव ने भी महसूस किया कि वह परिवार का एक महत्वपूर्ण हिस्सा है।En: Meanwhile, Pranav also realized that he is an essential part of the family.Hi: उस सर्द रात में, जब चारों ओर बर्फ गिर रही थी, अंदर का माहौल पहले से कहीं अधिक अच्छा और गर्म था।En: On that cold night, while snow was falling all around, the atmosphere inside was warmer and more pleasant than ever.Hi: परिवार में सभी ने महसूस किया कि उनके रिश्ते पहले से कहीं ज्यादा मजबूत हैं।En: Everyone in the family felt that their relationships were stronger than before.Hi: यह थी एक साधारण परिवार की कहानी, जो एक छोटी सी घटना के माध्यम से और भी करीब आ गया।En: This was the story of a simple family that became even closer through a small incident.

Gregg Moore is a ceramic artist who is best known for his work with Dan Barber at the restaurant Blue Hill at Stone Barns. The Glenside, Pennsylvania based artist is a professor of ceramic art at Arcadia University and also co-owns the ceramic studio Heirloom alongside his wife Jackie, which sells plateware influenced by agriculture and farmers' markets.Why don't we think of the plate with as much depth as we think of the food that sits on top of them? Not just how it holds the food on top or within it, but the materials they are made from and what they represent?  This discussion really made me think a lot about the vessels we use to communicate food. It's not every restaurant that can have a ceramicist like Gregg and give them the space to be creative, but for many that strive for something different it could be a missed opportunity.One of the signature elements he works with is bone, using mostly the femurs of cattle that live at Stone Barns. Using a late 1700s recipe by Josiah Spode, he breaks down the bones into a powder, which gets remade into plates and cups. What's fascinating is they have done tests about the quality of the bones and it is directly related to how the cows live. A healthier, grass fed cow not injected with hormones has purer bones that result in better plateware. It really makes you think about what we are putting in our bodies.--Host: Nicholas GillCo-host: Juliana DuqueProduced by Nicholas Gill & Juliana DuqueRecording & Editing by New Worlder Email: thenewworlder@gmail.comRead more at New Worlder: https://www.newworlder.com

"Sustainability, where you can, is always an important resource to go to first… This earth gives us such precious resources, and it's nice to maintain and take care of the earth as well for your children and children to come." —Ashley Berman  The most meaningful jewelry isn't bought, it's reborn. It carries stories, fingerprints, and memories that outshine anything new. In a world chasing trends, there's power in slowing down, honoring what already exists, and turning what once sat in a drawer into something extraordinary. For jewelry designer Ashley Berman, the pandemic reshaped everything. When store shelves closed, she opened a new chapter, helping clients transform heirlooms into modern pieces that carry legacy and beauty in equal measure. Today, through Ashley Morgan Designs, she champions beauty built on story, craftsmanship, and sustainability. In this episode, Justine and Ashley unpack how to build a sustainable jewelry collection, what to ask before buying or recycling gold and stones, and the truth behind lab-grown versus mined diamonds, plus a look into her Holiday Market that celebrates local makers and meaningful design.   Meet Ashley: Ashley Morgan Designs is a Bay Area-based jewelry design company. Ashley Berman, the creative brilliance behind the growing studio, uses her ability to evoke emotion from jewelry to craft pieces of art that are both reflective of individual style as well as the embodiment of personal histories. Ashley's custom designs are intended for individuals who wish to express their own unique spirit and beauty. As opposed to fleeting trends, Ashley draws her inspiration from her clients' stories, traditions, and cultures, as well as the natural world, to create her personalized designs. As a trained goldsmith in San Francisco, Ashley challenges the status quo. She leverages traditional techniques to ensure that all of her unique jewelry designs reflect the beauty and confidence of the people they adorn.

The autumn leaves drifted slowly down, covering the paths leading to the prestigious boarding school, deep in the Norwegian mountains.No: Skolen, med sine tykke steinvegger og store karnappvinduer, speilet høstens kjølige luft og ga en følelse av mystikk.En: The school, with its thick stone walls and large bay windows, mirrored the chilly autumn air and gave a sense of mystique.No: Bak de stolte murene hadde noe forsvunnet.En: Behind the proud walls, something had disappeared.No: En verdifull gjenstand manglet fra et låst rom.En: A valuable item was missing from a locked room.No: Kjetil, en

school believed it was an innocent prank or a mistake.No: Ingen tok saken alvorlig, men Kjetil kjente at det var noe mer.En: No one took the matter seriously, but Kjetil felt there was more to it.No: Han lengtet etter å finne sannheten og kanskje, ved å løse mysteriet, forbedre sitt eget rykte.En: He longed to find the truth and perhaps, by solving the mystery, improve his own reputation.No:

Nick Gislason, co-founder and Head Brewer at Hanabi Lager Co. is our guest on Brew Ha Ha with Herlinda Heras and Daedalus Howell. Herlinda Heras is just back from Belgium and brought back so much beer that she had to pay for overweight suitcases. Daedalus is also back from his own trip to Paris and London. He gets to reconnect with Herlinda for a few minutes before having to leave for an event later this evening. One of the beers that she brought back is from the Saint Sixtus Monastery in Westvleteren, that she visited, and Daedalus gets to taste it before he has to take off. Hanabi is Japanese for "fireworks" The labels feature drawings of the patterns that different Japanese fireworks make, up in the air. Nick explains that “hanabi” means fireworks, in Japanese. “Hana” means flower and “bi” means fire, so literally their word for fireworks means “fire flowers.” The fireworks manufacturers used these drawings in the 1800s to describe their products, before photography was available to show the patterns that they make. Nick grew up on San Juan Island in Washington, and learned brewing from an uncle who was a home brewer. In college he brewed at Boundary Bay Brewing in Bellingham, where he met his wife. They both became winemakers and launched Hanabi Lager about six years ago. Russian River Brewing Co. is open in Santa Rosa on 4th St. and at their big Windsor location. Visit their website for up-to-date hours, menus, beers and more. Grain-Forward Lagers Nick says Hanabi makes grain-forward lagers. They are tasting the Hana Pilsner, which Herlinda says has a refined taste. Nick explains that beer is made from grain, and water, and hops are like a spice. Hops is like the barrels to wine, where the grapes are the main ingredient. So Nick focusses his energy in using the most delicious grains in the world. That fact that these plants are so important to human nutrition for thousands of years makes them sacred.

Vajon hagyja-e, hogy másé legyen az utolsó darab?En: Katalin hesitated for a moment. Should she let someone else have the last piece?Hu: Ekkor meglátott egy régi, poros könyvet a sarokban elrejtve.En: Then she spotted an old, dusty book hidden in the corner.Hu: Rég elfelejtett magyar népmesék gyűjteménye volt.En: It was a collection of long-forgotten Hungarian folk tales.Hu: Katalin kinyitotta a könyvet, és az első oldalon felismert egy történetet, amelyet gyakran meséltek gyerekkorában.En: Katalin opened the book and recognized a story on the first page that she was often told in her childhood.Hu: Szíve halk dobbanást érzett; tudta, hogy ez az igazi ajándék.En: Her heart fluttered softly; she knew this was the real gift.Hu: Katalin elmosolyodott, ahogyan a kezében tartotta a kincset.En: Katalin smiled as she held the treasure in her hands.Hu: Úgy érezte, mintha valami igazi, őszinte köteléket talált volna.En: She felt as though she had discovered a true, genuine bond.Hu: Az élet sokszor a türelmet és a szerencsét hozza el a legkülönösebb formában.En: Life often brings patience and luck in the most unusual forms.Hu: Szívében most már nyugodtabban várta a hazautat Londonba, tudva, hogy a szeretet különféle módokon fejeződhet ki.En: With her heart now at ease, she looked forward to the journey back to London, knowing that love can be expressed in various ways.Hu: Az egyetlen halk sóhaja a repülőtéren elszállt, és ahogy a kapu felé indult, a szíve is könnyebb lett.En: Her only quiet sigh drifted away at the airport, and as she headed toward the gate, her heart felt lighter.Hu: Ez a könyv mostantól családi ereklyévé válik majd, visszaterel a múlt emlékeire és a szeretet útján keresztül.En: This book would now become a family heirloom, a bridge back to past memories and through the path of love.Hu: A terminál zsivajában Katalin már csak alig hallotta a tömegeket; gondolatai már az otthoni meleg szobában jártak, ahol az új kincs foglalja el méltó helyét.En: Amidst the terminal's hustle and bustle, Katalin could barely hear the crowds; her thoughts were already in the warm room at home, where the new treasure would take its rightful place.

An unassuming café on Isleta Pueblo just won one of the most sought-after culinary recognitions in New Mexico. Isleta Grill is this year's Green Chile Cheeseburger Challenge Champion for their frybread version of a regional delicacy. In northern Wisconsin, this year's wild rice yields are low. The state Department of Natural Resources blames wind damage and heavy rainfall from a series of strong storms. It's part of a pattern of diminished wild rice harvests in recent years. Cherokees cross-bred and cultivated apple varieties when they lived in the southeast U.S., but when the federal government forced a majority of Cherokees to move to Indian Territory (Oklahoma), they left their orchards behind. Now one cultural group is reviving those lost varieties of apples along with the history that goes with it. These are among the topics we'll hear about on The Menu, a special feature of Native America Calling on Indigenous food sovereignty and stories with Andi Murphy.
