Our beloved holy Father Nicholas is, along with St George (and second to the All-holy Theotokos), probably the best-loved Saint of the Church. His numberless miracles through the ages, on behalf of the countless Christians who have called on him, cannot be told.   He was born in Lycia (in Asia Minor) around the end of the third century, to pious Christian parents. His love of virtue, and his zeal for observing the canons of the Church, were evident from his infancy, when he would abstain from his mother's breast every Wednesday and Friday until the evening. From early youth he was inclined to solitude and silence; in fact, not a single written or spoken word of the Saint has come down to us. Though ordained a priest by his uncle, Archbishop Nicholas, he attempted to withdraw to a hermit's life in the Holy Land; but he was told by revelation that he was to return home to serve the Church publicly and be the salvation of many souls.   When his parents died, he gave away all of his inheritance to the needy, and thereafter almsgiving was his greatest glory. He always took particular care that his charity be done in secret. Perhaps the most famous story of his open-handedness concerns a debt-ridden man who had no money to provide dowries for his daughters, or even to support them, and in despair had resolved to give them into prostitution. On three successive nights the Saint threw a bag of gold into the window of the man's house, saving him and his daughters from sin and hopelessness. The man searched relentlessly to find and thank his benefactor; when at last he discovered that it was Nicholas, the Saint made him promise not to reveal the good deed until after he had died. (This story may be the thin thread that connects the Saint with the modern-day Santa Claus).   God honored his faithfulness by granting him unparalleled gifts of healing and wonderworking. Several times he calmed storms by his prayers and saved the ship that he was sailing in. Through the centuries he has often done the same for sailors who call out to him, and is considered the patron of sailors and all who go to sea.   He was elected Bishop of Myra not long before the great persecutions under Diocletian and Maximian (c. 305), and was put in prison, from which he continued to encourage his flock in the Faith. When the Arian heresy wracked the Church not long after Constantine came to the throne, St Nicholas was one of the 318 Bishops who gathered in Nicea in 325. There he was so incensed at the blasphemies of Arius that he struck him on the face. This put the other bishops in a quandary, since the canons require that any hierarch who strikes anyone must be deposed. Sadly, they prepared to depose the holy Nicholas; but in the night the Lord Jesus and the most Holy Theotokos appeared to them, telling them that the Saint had acted solely out of love for Truth, not from hatred or passion, and that they should not act against him.   While still in the flesh, he sometimes miraculously appeared in distant places to save the lives of the faithful. He once saved the city of Myra from famine by appearing to the captain of a ship full of grain, telling him to take his cargo to the city. He appeared in a dream to Constantine to intercede for the lives of three Roman officers who had been falsely condemned; the three grateful soldiers later became monks.   The holy bishop reposed in peace around 345. His holy relics were placed in a church built in his honor in Myra, where they were venerated by throngs of pilgrims every year. In 1087, after Myra was conquered by the Saracens, the Saint's relics were translated to Bari in southern Italy, where they are venerated today. Every year, quantities of fragrant myrrh are gathered from the casket containing his holy relics.

Greg Jenner is joined in 16th-century Italy by historian Professor Jill Burke and comedian Tatty Macleod to learn all about Renaissance beauty standards and treatments.Early modern Italy is renowned for the gorgeous artworks created by painters like Titian, Rubens and Botticelli, many of them featuring beautiful women looking at themselves in mirrors or getting made up for a night out. In this episode, we take you through a Renaissance Get Ready With Me as we explore how these women would have been taking care of their hair and skin. We look at what hairstyles and makeup men and women wore, how often they bathed, whether or not they removed their body hair, and how they shaped their bodies through dieting and underwear. Along the way, we dive into the recipes for popular cosmetics and skincare treatments, ask where Renaissance beauty standards came from, and uncover the sexist, racist and classist ideas that often underpinned them. But we also explore how their beauty routines could be an avenue for women's self-expression, and show the importance of the history of beauty, even amidst the turbulent politics and warfare of the early modern period.This is a radio edit of the original podcast episode.

In today's episode, I'm talking with my friend Dawn Weisberg of Tularosa Flowers about what it actually takes to create and book large-scale luxury weddings — not just from a "pretty" standpoint, but from a strategic, energetic, and logistical one. Dawn and I both came to the wedding industry later in life with long creative careers behind us — mine in directing and acting, hers in costume design for film and television. We get into how those backgrounds shaped the way we approach weddings as world-building: cinematic, intentional, immersive, and deeply rooted in storytelling. We talk about: How Dawn went from starting florals at 45 to designing six-figure weddings in under a decade Why she treats every wedding like a film set: thinking in scenes, movement, and guest experience The behind-the-scenes systems and logistics that make large-scale productions possible How her viral "Malibu Barbie meets Marie Antoinette" pink wedding came to life — and what made it blow up online The creative process of pulling inspiration from runway shows, architecture, art, travel, and above all, the couple themselves Why color is having a moment in the luxury world and how to use it in a way that still feels timeless and elevated The mindset shifts required to feel safe holding and delivering on big budgets The role publications & Pinterest have played in her growth (and how she handles rejection like a pro) How styled shoots and editorials catapulted both of our careers into higher price points What florists actually need from photographers on a wedding day to grow their own businesses We also explore the emotional and energetic side of this work — what it's like to be genuinely obsessed with your craft, how to avoid burnout by building a business that actually feeds you, and why weddings are still the modern-day fairy tale for both couples and creatives. P.S. I'm hosting a Tuscany Real Wedding Workshop this spring — a real wedding with a real couple and 30 real guests, photographed and designed over multiple days. You'll walk away with: A full multi-day destination wedding story (engagement, welcome party, bridal editorial, wedding day, farewell event) A pre-trip mentorship to refine your brand, portfolio gaps, and shot list A post-trip call where we turn your gallery into a 90-day luxury marketing plan If your gut is saying "this is my next level," send me a DM and I'll send you the full proposal. We have very limited spots. Meet Dawn Dawn Weisberg is the owner and flower mastermind behind Tularosa Flowers, a luxury wedding design company in Southern California in the San Diego area. Voted Best Florist San Diego by California Wedding Magazine for both 2025 and 2024, she is dedicated to providing the highest level of design and service to her clients.

After a successful career for 20 years in film and television as a costume designer, Tularosa Flowers's owner chose to pursue her passion for flowers. Dawn combines her cinematic design background with her love of nature to create one-of-a-kind immersive experiences for her clients. The Tularosa style is an effortless maximalism combining Old World European style with California vibrance.  Tularosa Flowers has been featured in all of the top wedding publications, including Vogue, Martha Stewart Weddings, Style Me Pretty, Once Wed, The Knot, Brides, Ruffled, Green Wedding Shoes, California Wedding Day, Inspired by This, 100 Layer Cake, June Bug, Wedding Chicks, Hey Wedding Lady, Smashing the Glass, and the Gay Wedding Guide.

Meta Platforms Inc. is planning significant budget cuts as high as 30%, for its metaverse initiative. Why has Netflix killed the ability to cast content from your phone to most TVs and streaming devices? YouTube said it will take steps to comply with Australia's ban on allowing users of its service who are younger than 16, but doesn't believe it should be considered a social media platform. TikTok introduced a “Nearby Feed” in the U.K., France, Italy, and Germany, giving users a location-based stream of local posts.

What happens when you walk away from a hyper-optimized New York life to immerse yourself in learning one thing? Ravi Gupta explains why he moved to Italy to study cooking, rebuild his attention span, and escape phone-and-dating-app brain rot, drawing on previous "skillbaticals" devoted to powerlifting, screenwriting and surfing. Then Gupta digs into his five-part series Where the Schools Went, tracing how post-Katrina New Orleans rebuilt its schools as an almost all-charter system, what worked, what broke, and what the rest of the country should—and shouldn't—try to copy.This episode was taped at P&T Knitwear at 180 Orchard Street — New York City's only free podcast recording studio.Send us an email with your thoughts on today's episode: info@firewall.media.Be sure to watch Bradley's new TED Talk on Mobile Voting at https://go.ted.com/bradleytusk.Subscribe to Bradley's weekly newsletter and follow Bradley on Linkedin + Substack + YouTube.

Daria Levina is a lawyer, academic, and business owner whose path spans Russia, the United States, Italy, and now Berlin. With two law degrees, a PhD in law, and a thriving admissions-advising business, Daria brings a global perspective to legal education and career design. In this episode, she shares what makes a PhD different from a JD, how stand-up comedy transformed her thinking, and why she believes education should be accessible to everyone.Lawyer Side HustlesOne of the most distinctive parts of Daria's career is her entrepreneurial project, Harvard State of Mind, an admissions-advising business she built from years of helping friends apply to graduate and professional programs. What began as casual essay review turned into a robust library of courses, guides, and one-on-one services. Motivated by her own experience with education as a tool for social mobility, Daria is committed to making elite institutions feel accessible rather than exclusive.“Education has been not just a means of social mobility but pretty much the only means of upward mobility that was available… and I wanted to make that accessible,” Daria Levina expresses in Episode 221 of You Are a Lawyer.In addition to running her business, Daria performs stand-up comedy in Berlin. It has been a creative outlet that she describes as both therapeutic and unexpectedly practical. Comedy helps her process difficult experiences, develop new perspectives, and appreciate the collaborative nature of creative work. It's proof that lawyers can be analytical and artistic at the same time.This episode is produced by Skip the Boring Stuff, a podcast strategy company for business owners and creatives.

What would you do if a café charged you €2… just to cut your sandwich in half?That's exactly what happened at Bar Pace, a real café on Lake Como in Italy and when the receipt hit the internet, the story went global.In this week's Money2Byrne Pocket Change, David dives into the strangest “service fee” ever charged, the café's unusual explanation, and how a simple knife movement turned into an international headline.You'll hear:

Diverse versioni di Mr Arbitrium sono state installate su edifici e chiese a Milano, Firenze, Lucca, Servezza, Carrara, Pietrasanta e persino in Ucraina.This ambiguity turns us as viewers into the protagonists, challenging our beliefs about the meaning of these structures and our connection to them. Versions of Mister Arbitrium have been installed against buildings and churches in Milan, Florence, Lucca, Servezza, Carrara, Pietrasanta and even Ukraine.Giannelli accoglie Mike sul prato della tenuta di famiglia, dove la sua serie di sculture in bronzo I Sospesi è appesa agli alberi e un simpatico labrador nero giace sull'erba.  Giannelli welcomes Mike on the lawn of the family estate, where his series of bronze sculptures I Sospesi hang from the trees, and a friendly black labrador lies on the grass. Emanuele è arrivato a Carrara a diciannove anni per studiare scultura all'Accademia di Belle Arti di Carrara, stabilendosi qui in Versilia, dove la sua famiglia aveva vissuto nelle generazioni precedenti. All'Accademia ha scelto di lavorare l'argilla piuttosto che il marmo, per la flessibilità che offre e per la natura più concettuale del suo lavoro. Emanuele came to Carrara at nineteen to study sculpture at the Carrara Academy of Fine Arts, settling here in Versilia, where his family had lived in previous generations. At the Academy he chose to work in clay rather than marble, due to the flexibility it offers and the nature of his work being more conceptual.Giannelli racconta a Mike di come, in gioventù, abbia trascorso del tempo a New York, Londra e Berlino, subendo l'influenza della fantascienza, del cinema, dei graffiti, della musica elettronica e del punk rock. Alla fine è tornato a Pietrasanta, luogo più adatto per crescere una famiglia.Giannelli tells Mike how in his youth he spent time in New York, London and Berlin and was influenced by science fiction, cinema, graffiti, electronic music, and punk rock. Eventually he returned to Pietrasanta which was more conducive to raising a family.Ricorda la gioia di incontrare artigiani e visitare i laboratori che allora si trovavano nel centro di Pietrasanta. E gli piacevano anche le feste e la vita sociale con tanti giovani, soprattutto stranieri, tedeschi, francesi e americani.He recalls the joy of meeting artisans and visiting the workshops which were then in the centre of Pietrasanta. And he also enjoyed the parties and social life with lots of young people, especially foreigners, Germans, French, and Americans.The Watcher è una scultura che osserva il cielo con binocoli, cosa che gli esseri umani hanno sempre fatto. Tuttavia, ora, grazie alla tecnologia, sta cercando di guardare oltre. Emanuele afferma che “oltre” gli fa pensare anche alla spiritualità. The Watcher is a sculpture who looks up with binoculars at the sky, which is something humans have always done. However now, through technology, he is trying to look beyond. Emanuele says that ‘beyond' also makes him think of spirituality.Un'altra opera che cita con un tema visionario è Korf, un uomo che sta in piedi davanti al suo monitor, con le braccia incrociate, lo sguardo rivolto verso l'alto, alla ricerca della sua visione e del suo futuro.Another work he mentions with a visionary theme is Korf, a man who stands watching on his monitor, arms crossed, gaze turned upwards, searching for his vision and his future.Emanuele afferma che, pur non credendo in un codice chiamato religione, crede molto negli esseri umani. Dice che, sebbene siamo animali e abbiamo un senso di autodistruzione, siamo animali straordinari. Le sue opere si collocano tra il figurativo e il concettuale, riflettendo sul periodo contemporaneo caratterizzato da cambiamenti incredibilmente rapidi. Emanuele says although he doesn't believe in a code called religion, he believes very much in human beings. He says that although we are animals, and have a sense of self-destruction, we are extraordinary animals. His works are pitched between figurative and conceptual, reflecting on the contemporary period of incredibly fast-moving change.emanuelegiannelli.itinstagram.com/emanuele.giannelli

Story Transcript:Ca: A Barcelona, mentre l'aire fred de l'hivern s'endinsava pels carrers i les llums de Nadal il·luminaven la ciutat, Martí caminava ràpidament cap al Hospital Clínic.En: In Barcelona, while the cold winter air seeped through the streets and the Christmas lights illuminated the city, Martí walked quickly towards Hospital Clínic.Ca: L'entrada de l'hospital estava adornada amb guirnaldes i un arbre de Nadal vestit de llums brillants.En: The entrance of the hospital was adorned with wreaths and a Christmas tree dressed in bright lights.Ca: Martí, amb les mans enfundades dins de la seva jaqueta, va saludar el porter amb un somriure abans d'agafar l'ascensor cap a la planta de cardiologia.En: Martí, with his hands tucked inside his jacket, greeted the doorman with a smile before taking the elevator to the cardiology floor.Ca: Núria, la seva àvia, era una dona sàvia amb una calidesa que tranquil·litzava qualsevol ànima preocupada.En: Núria, his grandmother, was a wise woman with a warmth that reassured any worried soul.Ca: Era el seu port segur, el seu conseller de confiança.En: She was his safe haven, his trusted counselor.Ca: Ara, esperava pacientment en una butaca del passadís, fent mots encreuats i sospitant per l'imminent visita de Martí.En: Now, she patiently waited in an armchair in the hallway, doing crosswords and suspecting Martí's imminent visit.Ca: Quan ell va arribar, li va oferir una abraçada càlida, transmetent seguretat i afecte.En: When he arrived, she offered him a warm hug, conveying security and affection.Ca: —Bon Nadal, Martí!En: "Merry Christmas, Martí!"Ca: —va dir Núria amb els ulls brillants.En: said Núria with bright eyes.Ca: —Bon Nadal, àvia.En: "Merry Christmas, grandma.Ca: Com et trobes avui?En: How are you feeling today?"Ca: —va preguntar Martí, encara preocupat per l'estat de salut de la seva àvia.En: Martí asked, still worried about his grandmother's health.Ca: —Oh, estic bé, estimat.En: "Oh, I'm fine, dear.Ca: Només una revisió de rutina.En: Just a routine check-up.Ca: Però tu, tens aquella expressió de dubte als ulls.En: But you, you have that doubtful expression in your eyes.Ca: Què et preocupa?En: What's bothering you?"Ca: —va preguntar Núria mentre es acomodava millor a la cadira.En: asked Núria as she settled more comfortably into the chair.Ca: Martí va sospirar profundament.En: Martí sighed deeply.Ca: Al seu cap, les imatges del que podria ser una carrera a París brillaven tant com les llums nadalenques als carrers.En: In his mind, images of what could be a career in Paris shone as brightly as the Christmas lights in the streets.Ca: Però l'ombra del fracàs també s'hi afegia.En: But the shadow of failure was also present.Ca: —M'han ofert una exposició a París, Núria.En: "They've offered me an exhibition in Paris, Núria.Ca: Però.En: But...Ca: tinc por de no estar preparat.En: I'm afraid I'm not ready.Ca: De fracassar —va confessar Martí, buscant els ulls comprensius de la seva àvia.En: Of failing," Martí confessed, seeking his grandmother's understanding eyes.Ca: Núria va somriure i va agafar les mans del seu nét.En: Núria smiled and took her grandson's hands.Ca: —Quan era jove, vaig tenir l'oportunitat de viatjar sola a Itàlia.En: "When I was young, I had the opportunity to travel alone to Italy.Ca: Ningú creia que ho pogués fer.En: Nobody believed I could do it.Ca: Però ho vaig fer igualment.En: But I did it anyway.Ca: Vaig veure el món i, el més important, vaig veure el que jo podia ser.En: I saw the world, and most importantly, I saw what I could be.Ca: Martí, la por sempre hi serà, però l'únic fracàs és no provar-ho.En: Martí, fear will always be there, but the only failure is not trying."Ca: Les paraules de Núria tenien un pes que marxava amb aquella sabiduria que només els anys i les aventures poden portar.En: Núria's words carried a weight that came with that wisdom only years and adventures can bring.Ca: Martí es va sentir inspirat, les seves inseguretats reduint-se al res.En: Martí felt inspired, his insecurities shrinking to nothing.Ca: El somriure de la seva àvia, mentre ella començava un altre conjunt de mots encreuats, li semblava ara la resposta a les seves pors.En: His grandmother's smile, as she began another set of crosswords, now seemed to him the answer to his fears.Ca: —Gràcies, àvia.En: "Thank you, grandma.Ca: Ho faré.En: I will do it.Ca: Aniré a París!En: I'll go to Paris!"Ca: —va dir Martí amb una ferma decisió.En: Martí said with firm determination.Ca: Amb una renovada confiança, Martí es va acomiadar de Núria després de la visita.En: With renewed confidence, Martí bid farewell to Núria after the visit.Ca: L'aire fred de Barcelona, que abans el feia encorbar-se, ara l'empenyia amb força vers la recepció dels seus somnis.En: The cold air of Barcelona, which previously made him hunch over, now propelled him forcefully towards the realization of his dreams.Ca: Justament, les llums de Nadal feien veure el futur més brillant que mai.En: Indeed, the Christmas lights made the future seem brighter than ever.Ca: Aquest hivern, Martí no només portava el pes del fred a les espatlles, sinó també l'escalf d'una àvia que l'havia ajudat a descobrir el coratge que sempre havia tingut dins seu.En: This winter, Martí not only carried the weight of the cold on his shoulders but also the warmth of a grandmother who had helped him discover the courage he always had within.Ca: I a París, una aventura plena de possibilitats l'esperava.En: And in Paris, an adventure full of possibilities awaited him.

Brent Gunning and Daniele Franceschi open Thursday's show by looking ahead to the Maple Leafs' road-trip finale against the Hurricanes. The boys frame tonight's clash as a clear benchmark for where the team stands, and discuss which parts of the organization (front office, coaching staff, or players) have had the most pressure lifted during this stretch. They then shift to concerns about the Olympic rink in Italy and the possibility that NHL players might not participate in the upcoming Games. After the break, Brent and Daniele react to news that Kyle Tucker visited the Blue Jays' facilities, considering what it might mean for Toronto's chances of signing him. They question whether both Bo Bichette and Tucker could realistically both be added long-term, and how missing out on Tucker would shape perceptions of the Jays' offseason.The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

Brent Gunning and Daniele Franceschi open the second hour by discussing the reports that Giannis Antetokounmpo wanted a trade this summer. They examine whether the Raptors were true contenders for him and how their assets compare to the rest of the NBA. They then shift to the Lakers' visit to Toronto tonight and note how LeBron James' arrival feels less significant than ever, potentially signaling the twilight of his era. Gunning also recaps his time at the Sportsnet Classic 3-on-3. After the break, they're joined by Nick Kypreos, Real Kyper & Bourne co-host, who shares his impressions of the Leafs' road trip, goaltending tandem, and Dennis Hildeby's expected workload. The boys also dive into the state of the power play, Auston Matthews' play since returning from injury, and the ongoing issues with Olympic ice and stadium plans in Italy, including the possibility that NHL players may not participate this winter.The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

Throughout the years of struggling, Josh had a DWI, rehab stays, but he never wanted to make changes for himself.  He recounts hitting rock bottom with a near-death experience in Italy, which became the catalyst for his transformation. Through resilience, therapy, and unconditional love from his family, Josh finds his way back to himself, embracing sobriety and self-love.

"La Grazia" is an Italian drama film written and directed by Paolo Sorrentino. It stars Toni Servillo as the President of Italy, Mariano De Santis, a staunch Catholic and experienced jurist, who is conflicted about whether he should sign into law a bill legalizing euthanasia, and at the same time has to consider the pardon petitions of two individuals who murdered their partners. The film had its world premiere as the opening film of the 82nd Venice International Film Festival, where Servillo won the Volpi Cup for Best Actor. Servillo was kind enough to spend some time speaking with us about his experience working on the film, which you can listen to below.

Rusk; "shoot to kill" orders; Cpt. Treaumer muttering "halt" orders under his breath; the N. Chi Rolling Mills into Illinois Steel Company and then rolled up into US Steel come J.P. Morgan's Carnegie and otherwise monopolistic consolidation; Kosciusko Militia; FOTLU and Gomper's feud with the Knights of Labor; the labor significance of the phrase "amalgamated" (formed of individual craft unions) and what this says about ST protagonist Hicks McTaggart's work as strikebreaking PI for UNamalgamated Ops; Pynchon gets real Hobsbawmian, Gramscian, and Adamic-ian with it; "Haymarket FRAME-UP job"; explicitly references Bay View and Rolling Mills; Debs Rebellion; Pullman Strike; Henry Clay Frick nearly merc-ed by Berkman; the Gov.

August Giuliani, MPD and BOI/DOJ informant; rabble rousing in the Third Ward, singing jingoistic songs, proselytizing to Catholics (which they didn't take kindly to from an apostate priest cum Protestant), and offering to pay for any anti-war anarchists or leftists of varying stripes' return tickets to the boot of Italy, all painting a picture of the gadfly pastor acting on behalf of federal law enforcement and local business interests with his troublemaking in the Ward; faced down by anarchists like Maria Nardini; the Bay View Riots, multiple Italian immigrant residents of Cream City killed by officers of the law with false flag violence (Antonio Fornasier and August Marinelli killed in the fray); the Milwaukee Station House Bombing of 1917; the comedy of errors; single deadliest day for law enforcement in American history up until 9/11; the curious lag in MPD response to the bomb's arrival at Giuliani's church; the claim the IMOPIO or infernal machine was anarchist made being sourced from BOI agent Julius Brown and possibly a Milwaukee congressman by way of MPD Capt. John T. Sullivan; the Galleanisti, followers of anarcho-communist Deed-Propagandist and advocate of various nitroglycerin and lead means for affecting change, squarely in the crosshairs; and much much more, breadcrumb trails we'll resume tracing next time.

Texas cashed in big at the Players Era Championship, literally, but the real jackpot was Rori Harmon's clutch game-winner to knock off South Carolina and shake up the national rankings. UCLA may have stumbled in Vegas, but the Bruins bounced back with a statement win over Tennessee. On the footy international stage, the USWNT wrapped up 2025 in style with two dominant victories over Italy under head coach Emma Hayes.

Welcome back to Classic & Curious—and to our Holiday Series.With Thanksgiving behind us, the season gently shifts toward intimate gatherings: dinners with friends, festive celebrations, and perhaps a New Year's soirée on the horizon. The timing feels just right for our next guest, Frankie Unsworth, a food stylist, writer, and author of The New Art of Cooking and Last Minute Dinner Party. Frankie's journey began as a writer for a food and travel magazine in Italy. Her passion for culture and cuisine eventually took her to Le Cordon Bleu in Paris, where she trained and lived for several years.It was in Paris that she met Rachel Khoo, British author and host of The LIttle Paris Kitchen whom she would go on to become her home economist. Since then, Frankie has styled food for numerous best-selling books, always bringing a signature blend of elegance, simplicity, and clarity to the table.In this episode, she invites us into that very approach — offering thoughtful tips on how simple styling can elevate the way we present food at home. We also chat about her go-to nibbles for the holidays and the selections she turns to when guests stop by.Frankie's styling mirrors her grace and genuine nature.
