It was almost a year ago that a young man named Thomas Crooks tried to assassinate Donald Trump. Yet, all this time later, he and his motives remain essentially a mystery. Our writer Rich Cohen has been looking into Crooks's life and death and is here with a revealing report. Then, everyone knows Burt Reynolds as the wry, handsome star of such 1970s hit movies as Deliverance. But as Josh Karp writes, Reynolds also had a dream: to open a dinner theater next to a truck stop in the middle of nowhere. And finally, if you are looking to get away to Italy this summer, you might want to check into one of our favorite places, Il Pellicano, which just celebrated its 60th birthday. Marie-Louise Sciò, the C.E.O. of this magnificent property, will join us to tell us all about what makes it so magical.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

It's a confusing time to travel. Tourism is projected to hit record-breaking levels this year, and its toll on the culture and ecosystems of popular vacation spots is increasingly hard to ignore. Social media pushes hoards to places unable to withstand the traffic, while the rise of “last-chance” travel—the rush to see melting glaciers or deteriorating coral reefs before they're gone forever—has turned the precarity of these destinations into a selling point. On this episode of Critics at Large, Vinson Cunningham, Naomi Fry, and Alexandra Schwartz explore the question of why we travel. They trace the rich history of travel narratives, from the memoirs of Marco Polo and nineteenth-century accounts of the Grand Tour to shows like Anthony Bourdain's “Parts Unknown” and HBO's “The White Lotus.” Why are we compelled to pack a bag and set off, given the growing number of reasons not to do so? “One thing that's really important for me as a traveller is the experience of being foreign,” Schwartz says. “I'm starting to realize that there are places I may never go, and this has actually made other people's accounts of them, in the deeper sense, more important.”This episode originally aired on June 13, 2024. Read, watch, and listen with the critics:“The New Tourist,” by Paige McClanahanThe “Lonely Planet” guidebooks“The Travels of Marco Polo,” by Rustichello da Pisa“Of Travel,” by Francis Bacon“The Innocents Abroad,” by Mark Twain“Self-Reliance,” by Ralph Waldo Emerson“Travels through France and Italy,” by Tobias Smollett“Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown” (2013-18)“The White Lotus” (2021—)“Conan O'Brien Must Go” (2024)“It Just Got Easier to Visit a Vanishing Glacier.

Plus, Kim shares practical tips on how to actually find these under-the-radar destinations (hint: it's easier than you think).If you've been craving something different, maybe something more grounded and real, this episode will show you how getting off the mainstream travel trail can be the most rewarding decision you make.In this episode, you'll learn:The perks of basing yourself in a secondary cityHow traveling off the beaten path supports more sustainable tourismPractical ways to find hidden gems and plan your next not-so-typical adventurePerfect for curious explorers, slow travelers, and anyone tired of overcrowded “must-see” spots.

Ever wonder why social media posts about food, fashion, or travel get so much love, while the deep stuff barely gets a like? In this episode, Dr. Nicole and Dr. Nick get real about what's actually behind our scrolling habits, how moving to Italy flipped their perspective, and why living in alignment with your values—not someone else's Instagram highlight reel—is the real flex. They dig into the difference between “should” and “want,” how to turn envy into inspiration, and why it's time to stop waiting for “someday” to start living. #LiveYourValues #IntentionalLiving #SocialMediaTruth #FamilyLegacy #AuthenticLiving #ConsciousChoices #InspiredAction #ItalyLife #IntegrativeYou #MindfulScrolling 3 Key Takeaways: Social media is a mirror: What grabs your attention online is usually a reflection of what you crave or suppress in real life. Instead of feeling “less than,” use it as feedback to uncover what you truly want. Living in alignment beats living for the ‘gram: The most fulfilling choices come from knowing your own (and your family's) values—not copying someone else's journey or highlight reel. Don't wait for permission to live: Whether it's moving to Italy or just making time for joy, stop playing the “I can't because…” game. Anything is possible when you decide your desires are worth acting on. Quotes: “You can sit there and say, good for them, I wish I could do that—and further that scarcity—or you can say, I'm going to make that happen because anything is possible.” “If you think you can or you think you can't, either way, you're right.” Find Integrative You Radio On: Website Youtube Apple Spotify 2 Doctors Committed to Innovating the Healthcare Experience.

The language from European leaders was fawning and obsequious. At one point, the head of Nato, Mark Rutte, even called Donald Trump “daddy”. But when the US president left the Nato summit in late June, there was a sigh of relief that he had not made any more angry criticism of the alliance. And after months of American pressure, Nato members agreed to increase their spending on defence to 5% of GDP by 2035. So how did Europe become so unable to defend itself that it was forced to resort to outright flattery of an American president?In this episode, we report from the recent Siena Conference on the Europe of the Future in Italy about how the EU dropped the ball on its own defence and what its options are now. Featuring Ana E. Juncos, professor of European politics and the University of Bristol in the UK, Francesco Grillo, academic fellow at Bocconi University in Italy, and François Lafond, former assistant professor at Sciences Po University in France and a former advisor to the Western Balkans.This episode was written and produced by Gemma Ware with assistance from Katie Flood and Mend Mariwany.

Last fall, I met Francesco Galgani and tried his wines and I was completely blown away. I always think of Vernaccia as a more historical Pinot Grigio -- light on flavor, boring, and not anything to get excited about. But then I visited Cappella Sant'Andrea. HOLY CRAP!! This is the BEST Vernaccia on earth. Francesco and Flavia, the owners and winemakers, are truly the Masters of Vernaccia di San Gimignano. You will never taste Vernaccia like this. In the show Francesco and I discuss the long history of Vernaccia, wine in San Gimignano, why there is so much crappy Vernaccia, and how they do it right. Their Rialto and Prima Luce, especially are stunning. I can't sing their praises more. Two things mentioned in the show: Follow Francesco on IG, he's a brilliant artist: @francescogalgani If you want to order directly from Francesco, and have the wine shipped from Italy, please visit their website: https://www.cappellasantandrea.it/chi-siamo1 and you can contact them for orders and pricing!

The siege of Vienna (1683) was an epic history-making event. Sultan Mohammed II and his Grand Vizier, Kara Mustafa, eyed the "Golden Apple" of Vienna with great hunger. If Vienna, the capital of the Holy Roman Empire fell, the spoils of Poland, Germany, France, and Italy lay ripe for the picking! At first two hundred thousand Muslim soldiers fought against twelve thousand Austrians at the Vienna city walls. Weeks later sixty-five thousand Poles and Germans arrived and fought the Muslims out on the battle field. In this last episode in my Crusades series I narrate the heart-stopping battle. What finally woke Western Europe from its long-standing languor, its sleep? What kind of ostentatious things did Kara Mustafa keep at his war camp? In the show's opening I raise two challenges each for Christianity and Muslim. No, my questions are not theological. They are more simple: what will each religion do in order to safeguard the future of humanity's existence? Come and think deeply with me about our lives in Christ.

A massive international study just proved what we've suspected for decades, glyphosate causes cancer even at doses the European Union considers "safe."In today's episode, I'm breaking down the results of the Global Glyphosate Study, led by major institutions including the Ramazzini Institute in Italy, Boston University, and universities across the globe. Over 1,000 rats were tested, with control groups receiving zero glyphosate and three other groups receiving amounts equivalent to what the EU deems safe for human consumption. The results are devastating: all groups exposed to glyphosate developed tumors and cancers, with leukemia being the most prevalent, especially in rats exposed during the prenatal stage.This isn't some fringe research. This is an international coalition of credible universities providing evidence that glyphosate infiltrates our entire food system and causes cancer. Meanwhile, Bayer and Monsanto continue trying to get immunity laws passed across the United States, claiming farmers can't grow food without glyphosate. But here's the truth: regenerative and organic farming doesn't require synthetic pesticides, it's just that we've destroyed our soil with decades of chemical agriculture.The solution isn't just individual action (though I'll share practical steps you can take), it's systemic change. We need to call our representatives and demand two things: no liability shields for pesticide companies, and government grants to help farmers transition to regenerative agriculture. This is about more than just our personal health - it's about saving our entire food system.In today's episode, we're chatting about: • The shocking results of testing 1,000+ rats with "safe" levels of glyphosate • Why pesticide companies are fighting for legal immunity across the US • How glyphosate exposure during pregnancy increases childhood leukemia risk • Practical steps to reduce glyphosate exposure in your home and diet • Why we need systemic change, not just individual action, to solve this crisisFree: Top 25 Toxins to AvoidGet on the Toxin Free in 3 Waiting List

I'm Chris, this is the Downtime Podcast and you're tuned into our La Thuile pre-race show with Chris Kilmurray. If you're listening, that means that like me, you probably LOVE the sport and want to know as much as possible about what's going on. That's exactly what we are here to do. Throughout the season, we'll be bringing you analysis and insights that you won't hear elsewhere. However, as you probably know, the mountain bike industry isn't in a great place right now and as a result, this series doesn't have any brand support. The World Cup coverage is the most expensive thing I produce, as it often includes travel and I like to pay the guys for the expertise that they bring to the table. I honestly considered not running the series this year, but I love doing it and from what all of us involved have heard trackside from the fans, you love it to. So I've decided to fund it myself, for now. But if this show means something to you, and you want to keep it going, then please consider supporting us over on Patreon. You can sign up for as little as £3 a month at patreon.com/downtimepodcast. That's less than the price of a coffee, but it makes a real difference. The more of you who chip in, the more likely it is that we can keep doing this. I know times are tight. But if you value what we're creating here, if it helps you stay connected to the sport you love, then now's the time to chip in and help out. Another week off, but we're staying in Italy as we head to La Thuile for it's first time hosting a World Cup downhill. We've visited here before with the Enduro World Series and found a steep hillside littered with challenging loamers, but what will they put together for the downhill crew? As always there's heaps to dive into, so without further ado, here's Chris Kilmurray. Podcast Stuff Patreon I would love it if you were able to support the podcast via a regular Patreon donation. Donations start from as little as £3 per month. That's less than £1 per episode and less than the price of a take away coffee. Every little counts and these donations will really help me keep the podcast going and hopefully take it to the next level. To help out, head here.
