What does it mean to live well when danger, loss, and grief are never far away? Kate Bowler talks with theologian, pastor, and writer Patrik Hagman, whose life has been shaped by profound loss—including the death of his father, his young son, and later his wife. Raised in Finland and now living in Sweden, Patrik brings a distinctly Nordic perspective on happiness—not as constant joy or self-optimization, but as contentment, trust, and gratitude that survives close proximity to fragility. This is a conversation about living with fewer explanations and more honesty. About faith that refuses easy answers. About the strange clarity that comes when life gets very small and very bright at the same time. And about learning to be less surprised by tragedy—and more surprised by goodness. If you’re trying to hold grief and gratitude at once, this episode is for you.

1 Hour and 13 Minutes With David Nasternak and Alex Drain This Podcast Has a Sponsor: Michigan Law Grad Jonathan Paul is the guy with the C you want skating next to the ref and pleading your case. He's also a good guy to sit next to at the hockey games. Segment 1 Watching the gold medal game through scrambling flight delays featuring a mid-air celebration. Canada really underperformed offensively despite having a lot of star power. Finland's medal consistency is relentless, Sweden is disappointing. Remembering the Miracle on Ice. Anyways, Michigan hockey lost a frustrating 4-1 game to Wisconsin on Friday. Will Horkoff scored the first game and it was all downhill from there.The Badgers were desperate and just outshot and outmuscled Michigan. Segment 2 Michigan bounces back 3-1 on Saturday, their five-on-five effort was much better despite penalty trouble and shot disadvantage. Cason Musser gets his first career point. Jack Ivankovic's 34 saves helped stabilize the night. Michigan is still a 99.6% chance of being a 1-seed in the NCAA tournament. Penn State had a wild 11-4 outburst against Ohio State, Gavin McKenna had eight points. Providence surges, Western Michigan pushes for a 1-seed. If Michigan wants to be perceived as elite this year then a sweep of Minnesota is a must this weekend. MUSIC NHL on ESPN Theme "Can't Catch Up" -- Rehab Ice Hockey (NES) theme
As Germany conquered countries in WWII, in many nations, they found willing volunteers to help them identify Jews to send to concentration camps. However, not every country did. Finland, Bulgaria, and Albania engaged in a spirited defense of their Jewish communities in the face of Nazi oppression. However, no country did more to save its Jewish population than Denmark.

Xylitol, FTC Censorship, and the Oral–Heart Health Connection: Nathan Jones, CEO and founder of Xlear, Inc., makers of xylitol-based nasal and dental hygiene products, and a health freedom advocate, discusses Jones' ongoing legal battle with the FTC. He addresses the difficulty of making health claims for hygiene products (including toothpaste and nasal sprays), the role of “weasel words” in supplement marketing, and concerns about regulatory double standards versus pharmaceuticals. He also reviews xylitol's benefits for dental caries and respiratory/ear infections, including references to studies and public-health examples (e.g., Finland and a Belize program reducing dental caries costs), and Jones' efforts to encourage Utah to implement xylitol gum programs in schools. He contrasts fluoride's enamel-strengthening approach with xylitol's effect on the underlying bacterial cause of tooth decay, discusses Utah's fluoride policy change and claims about fluoride's limited benefit, and highlights a correlation between poor oral health and cardiovascular risk via inflammation and bacterial translocation into the bloodstream, including pathogens found in atherosclerotic plaque, and links also discussed for dementia and Parkinson's. They close with commentary on health advocacy in the “MAHA era,” the challenges of entrenched federal bureaucracy, and Jones' preference for advocacy groups that teach industry to push back rather than comply.

In this episode, Jamie and Roope cover: Roope's background: Northern Finland, starting goalie at 4, full-time by 9 Why he started coaching while still playing: “I didn't get the help, so I wanted to help others” How Finland's goalie coaching education system works (levels, regional coaches, consistent messaging) The shift in Finnish coaching culture: more organized education and easier pathways into coaching Building a goalie development program from scratch at Kärpät: More resources + more ice time (4–5 goalie touches per week, not 1) Recruiting coaches and building a culture that values goalie development How Roope made the jump to North America and the Red Wings organization What Roope looks for in a new AHL/NHL prospect: strengths first, weaknesses second The non-negotiable skill: skating pace and sharpness (on feet + on knees) Can you turn a bad skater into an elite skater? His honest take Geographic goalie “identities”: Finland hands, Czech athleticism, Russian body control, North American compete AHL → NHL readiness: sustainable habits, success at each level, details that scale to 60+ games Why some goalies stick: passing the “eye test” + coach trust RVH teaching priorities: stay on feet longer, strong anchor, learn to recover to feet How AHL consistency is built: coach consistency, structured routines, monthly check-ins, and small drill evolutions ECHL as a development tool: not required, but often valuable for hunger and growth Roope's parting shot: continuing education and staying hungry to improve every day Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Headlines and 12th man news with GREGG BELL (Tacoma News Tribune) Gregg got stranded in Boston but wasn't going to let a couple feet of snow stop him from getting to the Combine! He joins us from the road as he roadtrips his way from Boston to Indianapolis. What are the chances the Seahawks bring back Ken Walker? They've had plenty of chances to get a deal done before this point, but by all accounts, they haven't approached Walker or his people about making something happen. If the Seahawks don't bring back Walker, where do they spend that money? Who becomes the priority? :30- EELI TOLVANEN (Seattle Kraken) joins the show fresh off his Olympic bronze medal. His Finnish team beat Sweden for the bronze, so we ask him what makes Finland better than Sweden? How is he feeling coming off the Olympics? Is he tired? With 25 games to go, we talk to Eeli about the playoff push and more. :45- There were so many takeaways from last week in Peoria, so it's time to find out what Chuck learned at Spring Training Part 3. The organization is very excited about Kade Anderson and Ryan Sloan, but how will they be used? What we learned is that we don't expect either of them to appear much, barring injury (knock on wood) and if there is an issue, Emerson Hancock would be the 1st man up. Where does the starting pitching depth go from there? Yes, there is a chance they will both make their debuts this year, but we don't expect to see them early.

Wij Europeanen hebben de afgelopen tachtig jaar afgeleerd waar we in de eeuwen daarvoor nog zo intens mee bezig waren. Oorlog voeren. Met de Europese samenwerking namen we afscheid van de geschiedenis. Oorlog was iets van anderen en bij anderen. Als Europeanen slaagden we er in conflicten op te knippen in technische compromissen en zo keer op keer te depolitiseren. Zelfs het gedurige geklaag over die technocratie, de slappe compromissen en 'te weinig democratie' hoorde bij de succesvolle lessen uit die historie. Maar de geschiedenis is terug, zij beukt onstuitbaar op onze deur. Caroline de Gruyter schreef er een boek over: Zondagskinderen. Ze is te gast bij Jaap Jansen en PG Kroeger. *** Deze aflevering is mede mogelijk gemaakt met donaties van luisteraars die we hiervoor hartelijk danken. Word ook vriend van de show!

Zend ons een mailtje en wij zoeken contact. *** Het debat over de regeringsverklaring van Rob Jetten zal ongetwijfeld gaan over dilemma’s in de sociale zekerheid en met de begroting gaan, maar zijn kabinet kon weleens voor grotere geopolitieke uitdagingen en keuzes geplaatst worden dan geen eerdere ministersploeg sinds de val van de Muur. Jetten en zijn team zullen geen 'zondagskinderen’ meer zijn. De Franse denker Raymond Aron zei het al: "Connaître le passé est une manière de s'en liberer", noteert De Gruyter. Wie het verleden kent, kan zich ervan bevrijden. Want de oorlog in Oekraïne is veel meer dan die in Joegoslavië destijds 'onze oorlog'. Dat hier de rol van Rusland als koloniaal imperium een cruciaal verschil vormt, werd eigenlijk pas vier jaar geleden een nieuw besef. De gevolgen voor de Europese Unie zijn ingrijpend, maar zien we dat al scherp genoeg? Keer op keer zien we dat crises ertoe leiden dat de urgentie zo hoog wordt, dat alleen oplossingen op bovennationaal niveau een uitweg vormen. Jean Monnet had dat al door in 1951 bij de oprichting van de Europese Gemeenschap voor Kolen en Staal. Jacques Delors bij de val van de Muur met de Interne Markt. Angela Merkel bij de pandemie en de vluchtelingencrisis en nu staat de EU voor een vergelijkbare uitdaging omdat de Verenigde Staten noch Rusland een betrouwbare partner meer is. De veiligheidsgaranties die wij Oekraïne willen geven, geeft Kyiv de facto ook aan ons, zoals Volodymyr Zelensky fijntjes opmerkte tijdens de veiligheidsconferentie in München. Eigenlijk gaat alles zo op de schop. Ook de Frans-Duitse as. Ineens is niet Frankrijk de militaire, geopolitieke actor, maar treedt Friedrich Merz zo op. Ineens zou de radicaal-rechtse Jordan Bardella zich kunnen ontpoppen als een soort Giorgia Meloni in Parijs. Ineens worden nieuwe organisaties ingericht om de nieuwe uitdagingen het hoofd te bieden: een EU-Veiligheidsraad, een soort Europese Defensiegemeenschap - die in 1954 zo tragisch mislukte - en supranationale vormen van hightech militaire industrie. De Gruyter ziet één land dat hier allang de knop heeft omgezet. Eigenlijk kón Finland nooit anders, wilde het overleven. Of het nu hybride aanvallen, manipulaties via fake news of militaire en politieke intimidatie betreft, de Finnen waren er altijd tegen bewapend. Dat zij meteen de kans grepen toen ze EU-lid en recent ook NAVO-lid konden worden, is voor hen vanzelfsprekend. ‘Se-cu-ri-ty’ zoals een Fin het wat hem betreft allesoverheersende motief formuleerde. Dat juist nu president Alexander Stubb als een heldere, invloedrijke stem op het wereldtoneel klinkt kan dan ook niet verrassen. Hij kan als geen ander uiteenzetten hoezeer Europeanen anders moeten gaan denken over de nieuwe realiteit. Volgens De Gruyter laat de weerklank van Zelensky's moed en van Stubbs betoog zien dat veel Europese burgers al veel verder zijn dan vele nationale leiders durven denken. Dat de Litouwse oud-premier Andrius Kubilius net zo optreedt als Stubb kan evenmin verbazen. Zijn kleine Baltische land heeft nog erger geleden onder Russisch koloniaal imperialisme dan Finland. De Gruyter wijst op iemand die dit aspect al decennia geleden agendeerde: Otto von Habsburg. De kleinzoon van de laatste keizer in Wenen kende als geen ander de wortels van de machtspolitiek van de 18e en 19e eeuw en de rol van Rusland als koloniaal imperium. Kubilius probeert als Eurocommissaris voor defensiesamenwerking die lessen te vertalen naar het Europa van onze tijd. Een Europa dat mentaal en materieel nog maar net is wakker geschud. De Gruyter diepte dit uit met een van diens meest invloedrijke adviseurs achter de schermen, Klaus Welle, een Duitser die ook dicht bij Merz staat. Die wijst erop dat een aantal EU-lidstaten die met Duitsland altijd argwanend stonden tegenover gezamenlijke initiatieven zoals 'eurobonds' nu 180 graden gedraaid zijn. Van de lange tijd nogal eurosceptische Deense premier Mette Frederiksen tot de van nature conservatieve Bundesbank. Alleen het kabinet-Schoof wilde er officieel niets van weten. Ook hier een majeure uitdaging voor Jetten en zijn ploeg. Dilan Yesilgöz (Defensie) en Tom Berendsen (Buitenlandse Zaken) zullen in Europa, in de NAVO en breder geopolitiek minstens zo offensief en doelgericht moeten gaan werken als Jetten en Eelco Heinen (Financiën). De Europese Veiligheidsraad in opbouw, de 'E6' van de grote economieën in Europa en de bouw van een eigen Europese pijler binnen de NAVO zullen veel van hen vergen. Onberekenbare onrust rond de Caraïben in ons koninkrijk niet minder, wellicht. Want pogingen vanuit de MAGA-hoek om de EU te splijten en te vervangen door een losse federatie van Orbánachtige patriottische staten laten één ding zien. Net als het Kremlin is Donald Trumps Amerika bang voor een EU als succesverhaal; als model van effectieve samenwerking.

The USA and Canada were favorites entering both the men's and women's tournaments and the script has played out according to expectation.Following the USA Women's stirring overtime win against their arch rivals to capture gold Thursday, the men of both countries had to punch their tickets Friday.For the second time in the elimination phase, Canada used late heroics to advance to the final over Finland while the Americans put a beat down on Slovakia.They met in the Four Nations Final last year and now do an encore - for Olympic gold.X: https://twitter.com/NHLWraparoundNeil Smith: https://twitter.com/NYCNeilVic Morren: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vic-morren-7038737/NHL Wraparound Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nhlwraparound/#NHLWraparound #NHLWraparound.com #ShortShifts #NYCentric #CelebritySeries #HallofFameEdition #StanleyCupdate #SummerCoolers #Smith'sPix #NeilSmith #VicMorren #PatrickHoffman #NHL #SummerCoolers #QuickTakes #WinterOlympics #SidneyCrosby #MikkoRantanen #SebastianAho #ErikHaula #SamReinhart #SheaTheodore #BradMarchand #JordanBinnington #JuuseSaros #NathanMacKinnon #ConnorMcDavid #NikoMikkola #MacklinCelebrini #JackHughes #ZachWerensky #DylanLarkin #JackEichel #TageThompson #BradyTkachuk #HilaryKnight #LailaEdwards #MeganKeller #ClaireThompson #Ann-MarieDebiens #WayneGretzky #JamesvanRiemsdyk #DetroitRedWings #TrevorvanRiemsdyk #WashingtonCapitals

I have been looking forward to that episode.He got cold feet. Too bad. On the other hand, I tend to avoid active politicians. Because they're rarely as candid as I'd like a guest to be. Oh well.A fan of last week's pod who lives near Atlanta writes, “The longtime Dishheads on the Mableton cul-de-sac definitely approve of your interview with homegrown talent Zaid Jilani”:I agree with his description of Mableton as a bit like the United Nations; I see that diversity in our grocery stores and local restaurants. He mentioned how he was often the only Pakistani and thus perceived as a nonthreatening minority. It makes me wonder how much the diversity mix affects how people perceive immigration? If a large group from one country arrives, does that seem more like an invasion? If a similar number arrives but from a wide range of locations, does that seem more like the normal American melting pot?After 30 years of living in Mableton, this may partly explain why I am not bothered by immigration in the way that you are, Andrew. I expect to see and hear all sorts of people wherever I go in my neighborhood. Today the teller at the bank spoke accented English. There are regular clerks at my grocery store who are immigrants. Our new HVAC was installed by immigrants. As an Atlanta suburb, there are many people descended from African slaves. European ancestry is merely one possibility off the long colorful menu around here.I think pace and numbers matter. A slower pace and fewer — with no massive homogenous populations arriving at once. And a new emphasis on Americanization over “multiculturalism”.From a listener who wants to “Make Democrats Great Again”:Great conversation with Zaid Jilani last week. I am very concerned that hardly any Democrats are being at all introspective, trying to figure out where they went wrong and how to become a party that can actually win elections — maybe even hearts and minds. They are only defined as anti-Trump, and their only hope is for Trump to go down in flames — which he very well might, but all they aspire to is winning as the least-worst party.The policy directions for reclaiming sanity and moderate voters are obvious (to me, at least). Here are my top three issues:1. AffordabilityThe longest lever to affect affordability is housing. Democrats have been complete failures in this regard, with strongholds like California and NYC being the least affordable places. When they talk about “affordable housing,” they only mean housing that is forced below market rate for the few poor people lucky enough to get it. They offer no solutions for the middle class or young people.The solution is obvious: build more. Plough through the various restrictions that are preventing housing from being built. There is no reason housing can't be cheap, except for NIMBY politics. Scott Weiner in California has been doing great work on this.Health care is the second-longest affordability lever. Obamacare made some progress, but not nearly enough, especially in terms of keeping costs down. But I'm not sure we're ready for another push on this; I say focus on housing.2. ImmigrationObviously there should be some immigration, and obviously we have structured our economy such that many jobs are only done by immigrants. But the Democrats' policy of simply not enforcing immigration law is untenable, especially for a group asking to be put in charge of law enforcement. We need those migrant workers, so find a way for them be here legally. Not through amnesty, but through some sort of bureaucratic process: have the employers fill out a form; have the prospective worker fill out a form in some office in Mexico; have someone process the form; and give them a green card.This is simple stuff! And yes, it would be helpful to admit that open borders, sanctuary cities, and subverting the law were not good ideas.3. CultureEnd wokeness. America is not a country consumed by white supremacy, and the people who voted for Trump are not racists. There are hardly any racists! And drop the other insanities, like the trans stuff.The message needs to be, “We are the Democrats and we want to help anybody from any state who needs help.” Hard to convince struggling white people in the South that you're going to help them when you seem to despise them. Love your brother, for crying out loud. And naturally, today's woke Democrats would be much more accepting of this message if it came from a racial minority candidate.Another wanted to hear more:I wish you had asked Zaid about Josh Shapiro. Also, when Zaid talked about affordability, he never mentioned housing — which is why there are so many ex-Californians in his home state of Georgia and elsewhere. “Build Baby Build” should be the slogan of the Democratic Party, rather than gaslighting Americans into believing housing prices will come down because we are getting rid of immigrants (Vance).Here's a dissent:About 20:30 into your interview with Zaid Jilani, he said that the root of all the Abrahamic faiths is that the meek have rights. You replied that this applied more to Christianity and Islam than to Judaism. I say this neither rhetorically nor to admonish you, but how much do you know about Judaism? Your comment is completely mistaken. Just what do you think Judaism says about the meek?Another has examples:In Genesis, you find that all humans were created b'tzelem Elohim (in the image of God). Moreover, Jewish texts consistently frame care for the poor as a legal obligation and moral imperative, not mere charity. Every Jewish child learns that promoting economic justice is mandated. It is called tzedakah.This religious mandate has manifested itself in the real world. Jews have been disproportionately represented in social justice movements aimed at promoting human equality. It wasn't an accident that two of three civil rights movement activists murdered in Neshoba County, Mississippi by the Ku Klux Klan were Jewish.Points taken. Big generalizations in a chat can be dumb. My quarrel may be semantic: the meek is not merely the weak. It's about the quiet people, those easily trampled upon. Like many of Jesus' innovations, it takes a Jewish idea further.Another listener on the Zaid pod:I wonder if you ever play the game of “which time would you like to go back to”? I do! And only half-jokingly, I often say 1994 in DC. Something about, for example, Christopher Hitchens on CSPAN in a dreary suit jacket discussing such *trivial* aspects of politics in a serious way. How perfect! When I listened to your episode with Zaid Jilani about how the left can win, it seemed dated to about this period in the early ‘90s.Ah yes, the Nineties. They were heady times and I think we all kinda realized it at the time. The economy was booming, crime was plummeting, Annie Leibovitz took my picture, and we had the luxury of an impeachment over a b*****b. Good times.On another episode, a listener says I have a “rose-colored view of President Obama”:In your conversation with Jason Willick, you said that Obama was a stickler for proper procedure and doing things the right way. I might instance, on the other side:* Evading the constitutional requirements on treaties in pursuit of the Iran deal (an evasion that the Republicans were stupid enough to go along with)* Encouraging the regulatory gambit of “sue and settle”* The “Dear Colleague” letter* “I've got a pen and a phone”Points taken. Especially the DACA move. But compared to Biden and Trump? Much better. One more listener email:I've been following you for years, but more recently I became a subscriber, and it's a decision I don't regret! I usually listen to the Dishcast over the weekend, and I always find it extremely stimulating, but there is also something relaxing about the length and scope of your conversations.I want to respond to something you said in your Claire Berlinski episode on the subject of Ukraine. Although I appreciate your position in defence of international law, you implied that Russia's claim to Ukrainian land is somehow “historically legitimate.” This is not only problematic from a logical standpoint (does Sweden have a historically legitimate claim to Finland and Norway, or does the UK have a claim to the Republic of Ireland, the US, and all its former colonies?), but also not based on historical reality.Unfortunately, this is not the first time your comments on Ukraine seem come through the prism of a Russian lens. I am sure it's not intentional; perhaps that's not a subject you have invested much time in, which is legitimate. However, I find it a bit surprising that, as we approach the fifth year of Russia's full-scale invasion, you still don't seem to have had the curiosity to explore this and invite any specialist on Ukraine. If Timothy Snyder is too political these days, I would recommend Serhii Plokhy — possibly the most eminent historian of Ukraine — or Yaroslav Hrytsak. They would each be a very interesting conversation.The Dishcast has featured many guests with expertise on the Ukraine war, including Anne Applebaum (twice), John Mearsheimer, Samuel Ramani (twice), Edward Luttwak, Fiona Hill (twice), Robert Wright, Robert Kaplan, Fareed Zakaria, Douglas Murray, Edward Luce, and Niall Ferguson.A reader responds to last week's column, “The President Of The 0.00001 Percent”:Like you, I'm not against people getting rich. A lot of good is done by a few people who have enough money to seed research and the arts, and pursue things that ordinary worker bees would never have the margin of time or resources to pursue. Good so far.But all strong forces need regulation and/or protective barriers, whether it's the weather, sex, patriotism, or capitalism. What's going on now is obscene. Progressive taxation is a social good: it doesn't stop anyone from getting richer and richer; it doesn't remove the positive motivators for success; it just means that the farther they get, the higher their proportionate contribution to the system that lets them get there. There are various ways to tweak the dials, but there is nothing philosophically wrong with tweaking them in a way the sets some outer limit. Let it be very high, but let it not be infinite.Here's a familiar dissent:You were right to torch the nihilism of the .00001 class. You were right to call out moral evasions. But when you referred to “the IDF's massacre of children in Gaza,” you collapsed a morally and legally distinct reality into a slogan. Words matter. “Massacre” implies intent. It suggests that the deliberate killing of children is policy rather than tragic consequence. That is a serious charge, and it deserves serious evidence.The governing reality in Gaza is not that Israel woke up one morning and decided to target children.
This hour of Evan and Tiki spirals fast, starting with Tom Brady calling WWE “cute” and turning into a full-on theory that Brady is getting “worked” into a WrestleMania moment in Las Vegas. The guys also untangle the Logan Paul confusion, clown the “All-State linebacker” claim, then get forced into a real-time apology when the receipts come out. From there, it's a throwback to Lawrence Taylor's WrestleMania 11 main event, why WWE used it to hook casual fans, and why some Giants fans still want nothing to do with it. The show also hits Giants fans taking over road stadiums, the “book vs. show” debate with 11/22/63, and the usual spring training viewing confusion. And yes, Cinco de Luncho takes over: Shaun Morash drops his list of the five worst inappropriate relationships to get caught in, and it somehow gets even more unhinged once the guys start offering “honorable mentions.” The hour keeps rolling with a caller-driven John Harbaugh ranking debate, a quick hockey rules rant during Canada vs. Finland, and an absurd detour into “classified files,” UFOs, and the theory that the real mystery might be hiding in the ocean.

Wir springen ins 11. Jahrhundert, und sprechen über ein Schwert. Ein Schwert, das nach hunderten Jahren aus dem Fluss Witham in England gefischt wurde, über das wir aber eigentlich sehr wenig wissen. Wir versuchen sein mögliches Leben nachzuzeichnen, und sprechen dabei über Stahl aus Afghanistan, Schwertschmieden im Rheinland und die Bedeutung, die ein Schwert ganz abseits vom Schlachtfeld hatte. //Erwähnte Folgen - GAG158: Al-Biruni und die erste Globalgeschichte – https://gadg.fm/158 - GAG191: Aethelfled - Warrior Queen of Mercia – https://gadg.fm/191 - GAG414: Ibn Fadlān und die Reise zur Wolga – https://gadg.fm/414 - GAG519: Die Warägergarde – https://gadg.fm/519 Literatur - Androshchuk, Fedir.
