Blood on the Sawdust: The Brutal World of Victorian Boxing Episode Overview In this 9th Anniversary Special, we step out of the West End drawing rooms and into the blood-flecked, sawdust-covered floors of 19th-century “Fancy” public houses. Inspired by the depiction of East End street culture in A Thousand Blows, this episode explores the history of Victorian boxing—from the illegal bare-knuckle bouts of the Regency era to the gentrified, gloved sport codified under the Marquess of Queensberry Rules. We examine how prizefighting evolved from a brutal survival strategy into a national obsession, the legal cat-and-mouse games played across county lines, and the medical and physical toll extracted from the fighters. We also dive into the remarkable life of international combat instructor Colonel Thomas Hoyer Monstery and uncover the overlooked history of 19th-century female prizefighters. Key Topics Covered: Housekeeping & AI Voice Policy: Why the podcast is permanently stepping away from AI-generated voice models in favour of human research, along with updates on replacement recording equipment and audio access. The “Sweet Science” & Prizefighting History: How bare-knuckle fighting functioned as a mix of martial arts, local wrestling, and survival in an era where the body was often a worker’s sole asset. The Structural Cage of the Law: The jurisdictional loopholes that allowed fights to flourish on county borders, and the evolution of legal precedents from R v Billingham (1825) to R v Coney (1882). The Aristocratic “Fancy” & Early Pioneers: The rise of sports journalism via Pierce Egan's Boxiana, and landmark international contests like the 1810 bout between Tom Cribb and former American slave Tom Molineaux. Case Study – The Ruin of Harry Broome: Following the career arc of Harry Broome from his controversial match at Acorn Bridge to his defeat by Tom Paddock and his eventual death in poverty. The Queensberry Transition: Why the introduction of gloves in 1867 was viewed with suspicion by working-class fighters, and how padded gloves inadvertently increased the long-term risk of chronic brain injury. Gentlemen, Self-Defence & Martial Arts: Highlights from Colonel Thomas Hoyer Monstery's C19th treatise Self Defence for Ladies and Gentlemen, including his views on boxing over firearms and his praise for female swordmasters. Women in the Ring: The subversion of Victorian gender norms, focusing on the 1888 world championship bout between Hattie Leslie and Alice Leary, and the legal outrage that followed.

Sunday 9th August 2026 - Central AM & PMSpeaker - Ruth HugginsThis week, Ruth continues our summer series 'Jesus Changes Lives' at the Gate. Jesus changed the lives of the people he met and spent time with, and he keeps changing lives today._______________John 11 v 17-3717) On his arrival, Jesus found that Lazarus had already been in the tomb for four days.18) Now Bethany was less than two miles from Jerusalem, 19) and many Jews had come to Martha and Mary to comfort them in the loss of their brother.20) When Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went out to meet him, but Mary stayed at home. 21) “Lord,” Martha said to Jesus, “if you had been here, my brother would not have died. 22) But I know that even now God will give you whatever you ask.”23 Jesus said to her, “Your brother will rise again.”24) Martha answered, “I know he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day.”25) Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; 26) and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?”27) “Yes, Lord,” she replied, “I believe that you are the Messiah, the Son of God,who is to come into the world.”28) After she had said this, she went back and called her sister Mary aside. “The Teacher is here,” she said, “and is asking for you.”29) When Mary heard this, she got up quickly and went to him.30) Now Jesus had not yet entered the village, but was still at the place where Martha had met him.31) When the Jews who had been with Mary in the house, comforting her, noticed how quickly she got up and went out, they followed her, supposing she was going to the tomb to mourn there.32) When Mary reached the place where Jesus was and saw him, she fell at his feet and said, “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.”33) When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who had come along with her also weeping, he was deeply moved in spirit and troubled.34) “Where have you laid him?” he asked.“Come and see, Lord,” they replied.35) Jesus wept.36) Then the Jews said, “See how he loved him!”37) But some of them said, “Could not he who opened the eyes of the blind man have kept this man from dying?”_______________Recorded at the Gate - 09Aug2026

We continue our visit with Pastor Austin Huggins of Mt. Zion Bible Church in Pensacola, Florida. When we left off, Austin was facing a decision that would change everything. As a young man preparing to leave the Navy, he had been offered a prestigious position in another part of the country. He was settled into a life with his live-in girlfriend, and his future seemed mapped out. But then he found himself back in Florida, sitting at his mother's bedside as she faced a life-threatening operation. In that moment, Austin had to confront not only what came next for his mother, but also the direction his own life would take.
“I was a former submarine Sailer in the Navy. And, before that as a child I had spent time in church in a difficult home life. I had a raging alcoholic stepfather and life was difficult…”

Friendship is one of God's greatest gifts—but it was never meant to be casual or self-centered. From the beginning, God designed relationships to encourage us, challenge us, and help us become more like Christ.In John 15:12–17, Jesus redefines friendship by calling His followers friends and commanding us to love one another as He has loved us. Philippians 2:3 teaches us to value others above ourselves with humility. 1 John 3:16 reveals that true love is demonstrated through sacrifice, just as Christ laid down His life for us. And Proverbs 27:17 reminds us that "as iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another."This message, “God's Design for Friendship,” explores what biblical friendship looks like and how God uses healthy relationships to shape our character, strengthen our faith, and encourage us through every season of life.

What if the biggest barrier to learning in the classroom isn't behavior… but safety?Teachers are overwhelmed. Kids are dysregulated. And somewhere in the middle, everyone is trying their best…but it's not working the way we hoped. In this conversation, I sit down with occupational therapist Marti Smith and educator Amie Huggins to talk about what happens when we bring relational neuroscience into the classroom in real, practical ways.In this episode, you'll learn:Why behavior in the classroom makes more sense when we see it as communication, not defianceHow connection, co-regulation, and felt safety actually support learning (not compete with it)Simple, realistic ways teachers can meet sensory and relational needs—even with a full classroomResources mentioned in this podcast:GET - The Connected TherapistGET -Creating a Connected ClassroomRead the full transcript at: RobynGobbel.com/connectedclassroomUnderneath every behavior is something happening in the body, specifically in the nervous system.

In this candid conversation, Dr Diane is joined by Katie Huggins, a former occupational therapist who pivoted out of clinical practice and went on to build experience in health tech implementation, then transitioned into the recruitment / talent acquisition software space—eventually finding her best-fit work in internal operations, process improvement, and special projects. Now the founder of The Career Cultivator, Katie supports purpose-driven professionals (especially healthcare clinicians) through career coaching and collaborative resume editing, helping them translate clinical experience into non-clinical value—and overcome the mindset barriers that often keep them stuck. This episode is both a story and a strategy session: why clinicians leave, what they learn the hard way, and what to do differently to pivot intentionally.

A man with a gun warns him away from the scene, but Merc disarms the attacker and rescues the crash victim. Ah, but that's just the page-turning intro to a deeper mystery stemming from the crash. . . which leads Merc into a strange new delivery complicated by a memorable pair of grifters, a crooked ex-cop, stolen identities, human trafficking, and murder. I loved this fast-paced, unpredictable thriller, and I love Mercury, whose resourcefulness is matched only by his quick wit and determination to never miss a delivery—but how the heck will he ever accomplish this one?

Pastor Mo Huggins from Mountain West Church in Atlanta, GA joins us for our March 2026 Revive Night brings a message entitled, "When the Church Prays."
Dr. Beckett and Rich Klein discuss strategies for buying card collections and “shoebox” lots when time is limited and you can't comp every card. They compare top-down approaches that quickly pull out the biggest hits and treat the rest as filler versus bottom-up methods that value the long tail by years/sets, partial sets, and even per-card minimums, while also factoring in condition and what might be gradable. They talk about the appeal and risk of uncertainty in Huggins & Scott treasure chest lots, including the option to preview in person, and why quick evaluation is necessary at shows and stores. Both share times they overpaid or misread lots—such as a monster box of “rookie cards” that turned out to be mostly junk wax, and buying a large accumulation based on extrapolating from a few good boxes—highlighting lessons like checking every box and staying in your lanes. They also cover negotiating tactics, the costs of dealing with huge quantities (space, transport, disposal), how show table prices influence deals (including end-of-show boxes under tables), and why good eyesight and fast processing matter for working dollar boxes. 01:05 Rich's Collection-Buying (the time they matched numbers) 01:57 Two Valuation Mindsets: Key Hits First vs. Long-Tail Sets & Filler 03:38 Blind Box / Treasure Chest Psychology 04:31 Show-Floor Reality: Minutes Not Hours (quick ways to value) 05:37 Condition & Grading Upside: When “Filler” Isn't Really Filler 07:30 Getting Burned (or Not): Conservative Offers and Painful Lessons 10:15 Modern Show Economics: Dollar Boxes, FOMO, and Piles 12:48 Quantity Traps, Table-Space Deals, and Final Takeaways

We talk a lot about fonts on the Scoring Notes podcast. But there was a time when there were no music fonts. And then, there was one. Cleo Huggins, on the staff of Adobe in 1986, designed Sonata, the very first music font. It’s hard to imagine today, but it was revolutionary at the time, and a leading industry publication called it the “Music Product of the Year”. Sonata provided the blueprint for the core music fonts later created for use in Finale and Sibelius, but it may surprise you to learn that Sonata was created without any one particular music software product in mind. Cleo tells Philip Rothman and David MacDonald about her early studies with some of the great typographic experts of the 1970 and 1980s, and how her work in graphic design, 3-D animation, background as a violinist, and a key meeting with Steve Jobs about the launch of the first Macintosh computer all led to her taking responsibility for creating Sonata. Cleo discusses the revolution in PostScript technology and the introduction of the laser printer, and how that made it possible for her to create a high quality music font that was unconstrained by limitations of bitmapping. She recalls the various sources of inspiration and research she did — everything from Bach’s manuscript to the Music Writer, to Notaset dry transfer sheets — and the process of regularizing beautiful calligraphy without losing the distinctive elements of music notation. She also recalls thinking about all the minute details from careful placement to the key mapping of each character, and the feedback received from early music software pioneers eager to incorporate Sonata into their programs. Cleo’s career moved on from Sonata to a variety of endeavors, all propelled by a deep curiosity and propensity to good, and we talk about that too — and ask her if she’d ever come back to the world of music fonts, with all of the progress that has taken place in the nearly four decades since her groundbreaking work transformed the history of music notation.

Elena Huggins, author of Untwist Me: Uncomplicated Life Hacks for Mental and Emotional Liberation shares her personal journey of faith, trauma, and healing, emphasizing the importance of understanding the difference between being healed and being free. Our conversation delves into the complexities of trauma, the significance of processing emotions, and the role of Scripture in finding peace and clarity. Elena offers practical advice to help you navigate your own mental health challenges and encourages you to simplify your struggles to find effective solutions.Trauma can lead to complex emotional challenges that require deep processing.Healing is not the same as freedom; true freedom comes from a relationship with Jesus.Many people manage their mental health rather than truly heal from it.Scripture is the lynchpin in overcoming anxiety and trauma.Anxiety can be unlearned.Processing trauma is essential; you cannot skip steps in healing.Simplifying life's challenges can empower you to take action.Elena's book offers practical steps for emotional liberation.The supernatural power of God plays a crucial role in healing.Fav quotes: "Anxiety is a practiced behavior.""It must start with Jesus, you and Him.""Keep it simple, that's what I would say."Chapters05:47 Elena's Journey to Faith08:48 The Impact of Addiction and Trauma14:16 The Struggle with Mental Health18:14 Finding Freedom in Christ19:20 The Purpose Behind 'Untwist Me'28:47 Processing Trauma: The Importance of Healthy Reflection30:26 Divorcing from the Past: Moving Beyond Trauma33:51 Patterns of Thought: Understanding Anxiety and Depression34:38 Anxiety as a Practiced Behavior: Breaking the Cycle36:58 The Power of Scripture: Transforming Thought Patterns40:06 The Supernatural Power of God: Healing Beyond Therapy44:33 Creating Your Toolbox: Practical Steps for Recovery48:38 Simplifying Life's Challenges: Keeping It Simple*Peek Inside her book: https://amzn.to/4pNdEXpConnect with Elena: https://www.elenahuggins.com/CONNECT WITH VICTORIA:PODCAST WEBSITE: www.choose2thinkpodcast.comMINISTRY WEBSITE: www.choose2think.coFACEBOOK: www.facebook.com/groups/choose2thinkINSTAGRAM: www.instagram.com/victoriadwalkerlydon/EMAIL: choose2think@gmail.com *BOOKS:Pickleball Passion A Marriage Devotional: 21 Days to a Stronger Connection on and off the Court https://amzn.to/48wnvaVCHOOSE 2 THINK 365-DAY DEVOTIONAL: https://amzn.to/3Hcl7v1CHOOSE 2 THINK JOURNAL: https://amzn.to/3WvinND*When you click on these Amazon affiliate links, I may earn a teeny commission from qualifying purchases at no extra cost to you.
