Thank you Marty and Amanda Brennaman, Varsity, Engraved In USA, Robert, Rich Poe, Dan Varner, and everyone that came out to see Marty and support the Reds Community Fund.  What a great night with Marty on January 31st.  Today we start with history, and Dan must speak during the course of it.  After history, we discuss China's weather balloon (where is Greta and Al Gore), and double down on Biden taking it multiple times from Xi by helping China by banning domestic mining and production of precious metals.   Tiffany quit, but Dan said "to my way of thinking," so he picked up the check (just kidding - waiting on the check to Varner Foundation still).  Download and rate.  Onemoreandimouttahere.com.  Email Admin@onemoreandimouttahere.com with questions and suggestions.  Thank you for listening.

Dr. Greg Carr, Associate Professor at Howard University, and host of "In Class with Carr" joins host Shayna Terrell to drop some knowledge on the actual history of "Black History Month."Dr. Carr speaks on the importance of elevating and preserving Black History and on the events taking place in Florida (and around the country) where Black history and teaching truth seem to be under attack. Shayna and Dr. Carr discuss Critical Race Theory, Black Queer Studies, and Intersectionality and how these topics are now seen as "indoctrination" by those on the right. Finally, the episode touches on the term "woke," and how we can move beyond the basic narratives and tropes that get trotted out every Black History Month. 

On today's episode, Dan is insistent on a special podcast when it isn't.  Getting ready for Marty and other guest on 1/31.  Today in History we explore a hodgepodge of past events, notably Prohibition (18th amendment, thank you ladies) and MLK's birthday.  We speak of Biden's documents being everywhere and Tiffany's trip to Obama's residence to help shred documents.  Kidding.  Then we speak about Hubbard's run like Forest Gump, and the need for an AED for the "big guys" that have to run that far.  The over hit, so that was good for me.  Dan still owes me $102.50, so we made a bet to benefit the Varner Foundation.  Dallas over tonight is Dan's choice at 45.5, and I have the under.  Stay tuned.  Download the episode, listen and root for the under 45.5 tonight.  Thank you and see you soon.  Admin@onemoreandimouttahere.com, social media at onemoreandimouttahere.com, website is onemoreandimouttahere.com.

(14 de noviembre: Día Internacional contra el Tráfico Ilícito de Bienes Culturales) La Copa Jules Rimet que se le entregó a Brasil por segunda vez como campeón del Mundial de Chile 1962 volvería a quedar en manos de la Selección Brasileña de Fútbol como resultado del Mundial de México 1970, con lo que llegó a ser el único país en la historia que haya ganado el derecho de quedarse con la copa original por haberse consagrado campeón por tercera vez. Pero lamentablemente Brasil no logró quedarse con ella, ya que en 1983 fue robada de la sede de la Confederación Brasileña de Fútbol en Río de Janeiro y nunca fue recuperada. Irónicamente, esa misma copa había sido robada diecisiete años atrás en Londres poco antes del comienzo del Mundial de Inglaterra 1966 —el único que no ganó Brasil entre 1958 y 1970—, y un directivo de la Confederación de Deportes de Brasil había manifestado: «Eso en Brasil nunca hubiera ocurrido. Hasta los ladrones en nuestro país consideran sagrada la Copa, y robársela hubiera sido un sacrilegio.» ¿Cómo sucedió tal cosa en la jurisdicción de la Policía Metropolitana de Londres, conocida mundialmente como Scotland Yard? ¿Y cómo es que en Inglaterra la copa sí fue recuperada? Sucedió el domingo 20 de marzo, luego de que la FIFA permitió que la Asociación Inglesa de Fútbol exhibiera el codiciado trofeo en una exposición filatélica en el Salón Central Metodista de Westminster. Mientras se celebraba un servicio religioso en la planta de abajo, el autor del robo forzó la puerta trasera, entró y se marchó con la copa. Una semana después fue hallada casualmente por un perro blanco y negro llamado Pickles que, al salir de la casa con su dueño David Corbett, se detuvo a olfatear un paquete envuelto en papel periódico. «Lo recogí y era bastante pesado, aunque no muy grande —contó Corbett más tarde—Rompí un poco del envoltorio por debajo, [y vi] una chapa lisa... que decía: “Brasil, Alemania, Uruguay”. Corrí de vuelta a casa y le dije a mi esposa: “¡Creo que he encontrado la Copa Mundial!” Así que llevaron el trofeo a las autoridades locales, y éstas confirmaron que era auténtico. Posteriormente recibieron seis mil libras esterlinas en total por el hallazgo, y comida gratis por un año para su heroico perro. Pickles, por su parte, recibió una medalla y una bandeja de plata, hizo de extra en la película «El espía de la nariz fría», y él y su dueño salieron por televisión y fueron invitados a la cena de celebración del título obtenido por la Selección anfitriona del Mundial.1 Gracias a Dios, así como Inglaterra no sólo recuperó, sino que ganó la Copa Jules Rimet que le había sido robada, la cual representaba una insuperable victoria deportiva, también todo el que se haya dejado robar la vida plena puede recuperarla y ganarla con tan sólo pedírsela a su Hijo Jesucristo. Pues Cristo vino al mundo, se hizo hombre e intervino en esta Copa de la Vida precisamente para que cada uno de nosotros la gane y obtenga así una insuperable victoria espiritual.2 Carlos ReyUn Mensaje a la Concienciawww.conciencia.net 1 «El perro Pickles y la Copa Mundial robada», FIFA, 20 marzo 2020 En línea 12 julio 1022; Pablo Bomarito, «La copa se mira y se roba», 20 octubre 2020 En línea 12 julio 1022; Rob Stevens, «How Pickles the dog found the World Cup trophy—50 years on» [Cómo fue que el perro Pickles encontró la Copa Mundial—50 años después], BBC Sport, 26 marzo 2016 En línea 12 julio 1022; Scott Murray, «World Cup Stunning Moments: Pickles the Dog is a Very Good Boy in 1966» [Momentos asombrosos de la Copa Mundial: El perro Pickles es un buen mascota en 1966], Diario The Guardian, 8 marzo 2018 En línea 12 julio 1022; Martin Atherton, «England Loses the World Cup» [Inglaterra pierde la Copa Mundial], Revista History Today [La historia hoy], Tomo 56, No. 6, junio 2006 En línea 12 julio 1022. 2 Lc 2:7; 19:10; Jn 3:16; 10:10; Ro 8:3; Fil 2:6-8; 1Jn 4:2
