Remember that magical moment in December 2015 when Kelly unveiled his wave pool to the world? In this episode of the WavePoolMag podcast, we dive into the full backstory behind that unforgettable day. We speak with Alex Poirot to learn more about working with Kelly, his first impressions of the now-famous wave, and the significance of that moment in surfing. You'll also hear how Alex and Brett Portero are pioneering an entirely new technology at Crest Surf Clubs.
What started as a 4:15 a.m. thought spirals into a full-blown deep dive on biblical fashion, purple sashes, and why Jesus might have been the original Ninja Turtle. Todd and Eric debate the historical practicality of robes, speculate on sash functionality (storage? style? loaves and fishes?), and take detours into Jedi wardrobe choices, South Park, and Genghis Khan's surprising contributions to humanity—namely, pants and hamburgers. It's equal parts history lesson, pop culture mash-up, and random middle-of-the-night musing that will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about ancient wardrobes.Why purple is tied to royalty and how it became part of Jesus' look.Artistic choices in depictions of the Last Supper.The robe-versus-pants dilemma of biblical times.Genghis Khan's surprising fashion and food legacy.Jedi wardrobe logic (or lack thereof).The Ninja Turtle method of character differentiation applied to apostles.The possible practical uses of a sash (including storing miracles).

We're heading right into the gooey center of August 2025, and tonight we'll have some mixed news as we usually do on a Monday evening. The Trump administration is preparing to clean up crime on the streets of Washington, D.C., and so we'll cover some of the reaction; there's also some new stay-at-home orders being given in parts of Canada in order to *prevent* wildfires; then the lines go open for weekend thoughts, Q&A, and building a list of inventions that very subtly changed the world.

Hello and welcome to the Enchanted Ears Podcast, where we discuss anything and everything Disney. This week, Disney announced plans to merger Hulu and Disney+. We discuss why this is a big win for Disney fans. Plus we got our first look at the offerings for the new Beak and Barrel lounge coming to Magic Kingdom. Walt Disney was a visionary who was constantly looking for ways to entertain people in new and innovative ways. And he built that vision and drive right into the DNA of the Disney Company. So with 100 years of history under its belt, the Company had to create a few groundbreaking inventions, right? Well today, we're counting down the top 5 inventions that came out of Disney that completely changed the course of history. From changing the movie going experience to forever solidifying the theme park industry, these inventions have become engrained in our culture. Let us know what your pick for the top invention is.

For this episode we're joined online from northwest Massachusetts by the legendary Byron Coley, champion of all things weird and non-mainstream. After describing his somewhat peripatetic childhood, our guest explains – very amusingly – why as a teenager he hated the Beatles and what led him eventually to the more subversive sounds of the Mothers of Invention and their ilk. A digression on the Grateful Dead – whose Jerry Garcia we lost 30 years ago this month – is followed by Byron's memories of first reading R. Meltzer and Nick Tosches in Crawdaddy! and Creem... and how a teaching assistant grad student inspired him to "write like you talk". After Barney reads from Byron's 1980 New York Rocker piece on Lydia Lunch's 8-Eyed Spy – prompting our guest's recall of first seeing her No Wave trailblazers Teenage Jesus & the Jerks live – we hear about his 1978 Rocker interview with the incomparable Captain Beefheart. This in turn leads to clips from Gary Lucas' audio interview with the artist born Don Van Vliet, recorded in January 1972. After a quick late '70s/early '80s detour via his temporarily adopted California, Byron talks about his return to the East Coast and his writing for Boston's Forced Exposure – not to mention his rather more lucrative "Underground" columns for Spin. In passing he explains how his friendship with Sonic Youth led to a declaration of war on Bob ("Dean of American Rock Critics") Christgau. We finish up by paying tribute to blue-eyed-soul man Terry Reid and beloved Salsa star Eddie Palmieri. Finally, Mark and Jasper talk us out with remarks on newly-added library pieces about the Legendary Stardust Cowboy (1968), Ronnie Wood and cronies (1974) and Lana Del Rey (2019). Many thanks to special guest Byron Coley. Find his book C'est La Guerre in all good bookshops and follow him on BlueSky @byroncoley.bsky.social.

In this sweeping new history of humanity, told through the prism of our ever-changing moral norms and values, Hanno Sauer shows how modern society is just the latest step in the long evolution of good and evil and everything in between. What makes us moral beings? How do we decide what is good and what is evil? And has it always been that way? Hanno Sauer's sweeping new history of humanity, covering five million years of our universal moral values, comes at a crucial moment of crisis for those values, and helps to explain how they arose -- and why we need them. We humans were born to cooperate, but everywhere we find ourselves in conflict. The way we live together has changed fundamentally in recent decades: global mobility, demographic upheaval, migration movements, and digital networking, have all called the moral foundations of human communities into question. Modern societies are in crisis: a shared universal morality seems to be a thing of the past. Hanno Sauer explains why this appearance is deceptive: in fact, there are universal values that all people share. If we understand the origin of our morality, we can understand its future too. With philosophical expertise and empirical data, Sauer explains how processes of biological, cultural, social, and historical evolution shaped the moral grammar that defines our present. Seven chapters recount the crucial moral upheavals of human history showing how the emergence of humankind five million years ago, the rise of first civilizations 5,000 years ago, and the dynamics of moral progress in the last fifty years are interrelated. This genealogical perspective allows us, on the one hand, to see the contradictions and potential conflicts of our moral identities; on the other, it makes clear that we share fundamental values that apply to all human beings at all times. Sauer's elegant prose, translated into English by Jo Heinrich, brings the history of humanity to vivid new life. Hanno Sauer is an Associate Professor of Philosophy at the Department of Philosophy & Religious Studies at Utrecht University. He teaches ethics, metaethics and political philosophy. Morteza Hajizadeh is a Ph.D. graduate in English from the University of Auckland in New Zealand. His research interests are Cultural Studies; Critical Theory; Environmental History; Medieval (Intellectual) History; Gothic Studies; 18th and 19th Century British Literature. YouTube channel.

We must go in."Zh: 在地面上,他们找到了一个隐蔽的入口。En: On the ground, they found a hidden entrance.Zh: 在梅琳细心辨别蓝图的指引下,他们顺利打开了通道。En: Guided carefully by the blueprint deciphered by Mei Lin, they successfully opened the passage.Zh: 黑暗的阶梯通往一个微光的世界,实验室里充满了尘封的古物和纸张交错的气息。En: The dark staircase led to a dim world where the laboratory was filled with dusty relics and the intertwined presence of paper.Zh: 脚步声在墙壁间回荡,与外面的烟火形成鲜明对比。En: Their footsteps echoed off the walls, in stark contrast to the fireworks outside.Zh: 正当两人专注于寻找祖父的发明时,他们意外触动了一个机关,入口开始缓缓关闭。En: Just as the two focused on finding their grandfather's invention, they accidentally triggered a mechanism, and the entrance began to close slowly.Zh: “快!”峻大喊,心跳加速。En: "Hurry!" Jun shouted, his heart racing.Zh: “我们得赶紧走!”En: "We need to get out, fast!"Zh: 梅琳飞快地合上笔记本,然后拉起峻的手,两人一同奔向出口。En: Mei Lin quickly closed her notebook, then grabbed Jun's hand, and together they dashed towards the exit.Zh: 在最后一刻,他们奋力跃过门槛,实验室的入口在身后轰然闭合。En: At the last moment, they leaped over the threshold, as the entrance to the laboratory closed shut with a roar behind them.Zh: 在浑浊的夜色中,梅琳和峻气喘吁吁地跪在古城的地面上,手中紧握祖父的蓝图。En: In the murky night, Mei Lin and Jun knelt on the ground of the ancient city, panting and clutching their grandfather's blueprint tightly.Zh: 梅琳展开图纸,眼中闪烁着新生的希望。En: Mei Lin unfolded the paper, her eyes shimmering with newfound hope.Zh: 图纸上的设计指向一个清洁能源的装置,奇妙而宏伟。En: The design pointed to a device for clean energy, wondrous and grand.Zh: “这不仅是祖父的遗产,也是未来的钥匙。”梅琳说,声音充满敬意。En: "This is not only grandfather's legacy but also the key to the future," Mei Lin said, her voice full of reverence.Zh: 峻的心中充满了对祖父的尊敬和对妹妹的信任。En: Jun's heart was filled with respect for his grandfather and trust in his sister.Zh: “我们一定要好好保护它。”En: "We must protect it well."Zh: 于是,兄妹俩决定携手努力,让这个发明脱离阴影,成为改变未来的重要力量。En: Thus, the siblings decided to work together, bringing this invention out of the shadows to become a powerful force for change in the future.Zh: 而他们也在这个过程中,找到了对家族、更重要的是对彼此的信任和理解。En: In the process, they found trust and understanding not just for their family but, more importantly, for each other.

Episode: 1418 Does war influence technological evolution? Some surprising facts. Today, we wonder how war influences technology.
Traditionally divers took on risky tasks in the aquaculture industry like pressure cleaning and repairing nets.
From his early albums with the Mothers of Invention, Frank Zappa established a reputation as a musical genius who pushed the limits of culture throughout the 1960s and 1970s, experimenting with a blend of genres in innovative and unheard-of ways. Not only did his exploratory styles challenge the expectations of what popular music could sound like, but his prolific creative endeavors also shaped how audiences thought about the freedom of artistic expression. In Frank Zappa's America (LSU Press, 2025), Bradley Morgan casts the artist as an often-misunderstood figure who critiqued the actions of religious and political groups promoting a predominantly white, Christian vision of the United States. A controversial and provocative satirist, often criticized for the shocking subject matter of his songs, Zappa provided social commentary throughout his career that spoke truth to power about the nefarious institutions operating in the lives of everyday Americans. Beginning in the late 1970s, his music frequently addressed the rise of extremist religious influence in American politics, specifically white Christian nationalism. Despite commercial and critical pressure, Zappa refused to waver in his support for free speech during the era of Reagan and MTV, including his pointed testimony before the U.S. Senate at the Parents Music Resource Center (PMRC) hearings. Throughout the 1980s, and until his death in 1993, Zappa crafted his art form to advocate for political engagement, the security of individual liberties, and the advancement of education. Music became his platform to convey progressive views promoting the rights of marginalized communities most at risk in a society governed by the principles of what he perceived as Christian radicalism.

In this sweeping new history of humanity, told through the prism of our ever-changing moral norms and values, Hanno Sauer shows how modern society is just the latest step in the long evolution of good and evil and everything in between. What makes us moral beings? How do we decide what is good and what is evil? And has it always been that way? Hanno Sauer's sweeping new history of humanity, covering five million years of our universal moral values, comes at a crucial moment of crisis for those values, and helps to explain how they arose -- and why we need them. We humans were born to cooperate, but everywhere we find ourselves in conflict. The way we live together has changed fundamentally in recent decades: global mobility, demographic upheaval, migration movements, and digital networking, have all called the moral foundations of human communities into question. Modern societies are in crisis: a shared universal morality seems to be a thing of the past. Hanno Sauer explains why this appearance is deceptive: in fact, there are universal values that all people share. If we understand the origin of our morality, we can understand its future too. With philosophical expertise and empirical data, Sauer explains how processes of biological, cultural, social, and historical evolution shaped the moral grammar that defines our present. Seven chapters recount the crucial moral upheavals of human history showing how the emergence of humankind five million years ago, the rise of first civilizations 5,000 years ago, and the dynamics of moral progress in the last fifty years are interrelated. This genealogical perspective allows us, on the one hand, to see the contradictions and potential conflicts of our moral identities; on the other, it makes clear that we share fundamental values that apply to all human beings at all times. Sauer's elegant prose, translated into English by Jo Heinrich, brings the history of humanity to vivid new life. Hanno Sauer is an Associate Professor of Philosophy at the Department of Philosophy & Religious Studies at Utrecht University. He teaches ethics, metaethics and political philosophy.

From his early albums with the Mothers of Invention, Frank Zappa established a reputation as a musical genius who pushed the limits of culture throughout the 1960s and 1970s, experimenting with a blend of genres in innovative and unheard-of ways. Not only did his exploratory styles challenge the expectations of what popular music could sound like, but his prolific creative endeavors also shaped how audiences thought about the freedom of artistic expression. In Frank Zappa's America (LSU Press, 2025), Bradley Morgan casts the artist as an often-misunderstood figure who critiqued the actions of religious and political groups promoting a predominantly white, Christian vision of the United States. A controversial and provocative satirist, often criticized for the shocking subject matter of his songs, Zappa provided social commentary throughout his career that spoke truth to power about the nefarious institutions operating in the lives of everyday Americans. Beginning in the late 1970s, his music frequently addressed the rise of extremist religious influence in American politics, specifically white Christian nationalism. Despite commercial and critical pressure, Zappa refused to waver in his support for free speech during the era of Reagan and MTV, including his pointed testimony before the U.S. Senate at the Parents Music Resource Center (PMRC) hearings. Throughout the 1980s, and until his death in 1993, Zappa crafted his art form to advocate for political engagement, the security of individual liberties, and the advancement of education. Music became his platform to convey progressive views promoting the rights of marginalized communities most at risk in a society governed by the principles of what he perceived as Christian radicalism.

“‘Rope!’ muttered Sam[wise Gamgee]. ‘I knew I’d want it, if I hadn’t got it!’” Sam knew in the Lord of the Rings that the quest would fail without rope, but he was inadvertently commenting on how civilization owes its existence to this three-strand tool. Humans first made rope 50,000 years ago and one of its earliest contributions to the rise of civilization was as a tool for domesticating animals for milk, meat, and work. ncient Egyptians were experts at making strong, three-strand rope from the halfa grass along the banks of the Nile. Rope allowed them to haul two-and-a-half ton limestone blocks to build the pyramids. They also used rope to tie together the planks of their graceful vessels that sailed without the need of a single nail. The Austronesian peoples spread across the islands of the Pacific in the most impressive and daring series of oceanic voyages in human history. And they did it using fast catamaran and outrigger boats held together with coconut fiber rope. Today’s guest is Tim Queeny, author of Rope: How a Bundle of Twisted Fibers Became the Backbone of Civilization. We look at the past, present, and future of this critical piece of technology.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Black Sabbath are solely responsible for conjuring the diabolical power of heavy metal. When guitarist Tony Iommi lost his fingertips as a teenager, he turned to a less painful style of playing— a style that produced a new, genre-defining type of gloom and heaviness. The band climbed through the seven circles of British podunk hell to international rock star success, but the lore of their dark imagery compelled the freaks to flood out of the woodwork and to their shows. Despite composing songs that warned against the evils of the occult, Black Sabbath attracted legions of devil worshippers, occultists and 1970s freak-flag-flying practitioners of the dark arts. Kids went mad for their metal. Critics hated it. And much to the band's dismay, Satanists found their battle cry in the heavy gloom that Black Sabbath had awakened.
