Join Jim and Greg for the Friday 3 Martini Lunch as they react to Virginia Democrats' aggressive gerrymandering of congressional districts, Russia's escalating mischief online and in space, and New Jersey Democrats once again showing how far the party continues to lurch to the left.First, they unload on Virginia Democrats for transforming a fairly competitive state into a convoluted congressional map that could give Democrats control of ten of the state's eleven House seats. Jim and Greg walk through the most absurd district lines and skewer the flimsy explanations Democrats are offering for this blatant power grab.Next, they chronicle the many ways Russia is attempting to meddle with its adversaries through cyber warfare, satellite interference, and other destabilizing tactics. New reports suggest Moscow is targeting Italy during the Olympics and is even floating threats involving a nuclear attack in space aimed at disrupting Elon Musk's Starlink network.Finally, they dissect the surprising results in a New Jersey special congressional primary where a far-left candidate is now poised to defeat a heavily favored, more moderate Democrat. Jim and Greg explain why the upset is another sign that much of the Democratic Party's energy is increasingly aligned with a more radical vision for the country.Please visit our great sponsors:Skip the hassle and book a top-rated doctor in seconds with Zocdoc.

The Winter Olympics are set to get underway this weekend — amid the backdrop of President Donald Trump's first year of his second term. Though he won't be attending the event himself, Trump's repeated forays into foreign policy have amplified tensions between the U.S. and some of the countries whom American athletes will be competing against. VP JD Vance is on the ground leading the U.S. delegation in Italy for the opening ceremonies. Then on Sunday, the Super Bowl has taken on its own political storylines. Playbook's Adam Wren and national politics reporter Alec Hernández discuss the impact Trump has on these two monolithic events.

SEASON 4 EPISODE 56: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (2:30) SPECIAL COMMENT: In destroying The Washington Post yesterday, Trump-fluffer Jeff Bezos has gone far enough. Democratic leaders must commit to using anti-trust laws to destroy Amazon, Prime, Blue Origin - and Bezos, financially. Every would-be president, senator, representative must vow to break the oligarchs - Bezos, Musk, Trump, and all the rest. Bezos first hollowed out the Post to make it servile to Trump and his gang. Now he's destroyed its foreign and sports desks, and its viability as a counterweight to the anti-democracy forces abroad in the land. All so he could spend $75,000,000 or more on a vanity project designed to tell Trump a life: that his wife is an attractive "movie star." We are not going back to the America of 1885. We must bankrupt Jeff Bezos. (And I apologize for the slipshod nature of this episode. I'm under the weather, throat bad, was planning to postpone this episode but this could not wait. Please forgive for the extemporaneous nature of the commentary; the rest of the show is interesting but not new) B-Block (30:00) OLYMPICS TIME: As the 2026 games begin in Italy let me take you back to the most famous winter games yet: the 1980 Lake Placid Olympics, which I covered as a 21-year old rookie with United Press International (while my bosses tried to teach me how to work and drink at the same time).

Please follow us on: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠! In this episode, Kimberly and Tommaso talk about their first two weeks in their new home in Italy. They share the joys and challenges of moving to a new country with a new language and new rules. Key Points: Setting Up a New Life in Italy: Kimberly and Tommaso record their first podcast from their new, unfurnished apartment in Italy. They describe the initial setup, including one bed, one table, two chairs, a kitchen, and many empty boxes. They express admiration for those who immigrate to new countries, especially with language barriers. Navigating Italian Bureaucracy: The process began with picking up an immigration application from the post office within eight business days of arrival. They found the process was what they had expected with Kimberly's Italian language skills coming to the rescue. They recount a humorous experience at the post office involving a friendly, funny clerk. A local festival closing the post office caused a moment of panic about missing their eight-day deadline. A visit to La Questura (police station) revealed the need for a “declaration of entry” due to their indirect arrival through France. They discovered that all printers in Italy come with built-in scanners, highlighting the local need for frequent document scanning. Deliveries and Shopping Experiences: Delivery tracking in Italy is often inaccurate. Packages arrive unexpectedly, sometimes before they are even marked as shipped online. Kimberly and Tommaso joke that the only way to reliably receive a package is to stay home all day. Or all week! Shopping in Italian malls is a different experience than in the United States. Malls are vibrant, aesthetically pleasing, and full of people. They describe a first mall experience with an exquisite wine bar and restaurant, feeling like they were in Venice or Rome. The stores themselves offer a personalized, art-gallery-like experience with attentive staff. Despite visiting on weekdays, the malls were busy, indicating a thriving shopping culture, unlike the decline of malls in America. Recycling Rules: Italy has a thorough and strict recycling system, with daily pickups for specific items. Food scraps go into communal compost, used for local agriculture. The community effort for recycling is apparent everywhere. They appreciate that the Italian system explains where recycled materials go, fostering a sense of purpose. Ciao!

As the 2026 Winter Olympics approach, Immigration Nerds explores the hidden immigration stories behind Team USA's more than 230 athletes heading to Italy. Immigration researcher Marissa Kiss from George Mason University reveals that nearly 17% of Team USA has direct immigrant ties—including foreign-born athletes from five countries and second-generation immigrants whose parents came from around the world. The conversation between host Lauren Clarke and Mariss covers athletes competing despite citizenship delays, the "reverse flow" of US-born athletes representing other countries, and how immigration policy has become a competitive tool in international sports. Plus, the latest news, including updates on FIFA World Cup visa processing, Texas's H-1B hiring pause for state agencies, and the latest on immigrant visa suspensions.Resource Links: George Mason University Institute for Immigration ResearchHOST: Lauren ClarkeGUEST: Marissa Kiss, Assistant Director, Immigration, Race, and Sports, George Mason University's Institute for Immigration ResearchNEWS NERD: Rob TaylorPRODUCER: Adam Belmar

For this month's episode of Magus we're finally discussing the life of the first Magus ever, Hermes Trismegistus!An ancient Egyptian sage written about by Cicero and early Christian church fathers, he is the literal reason why the magical practices of Hermeticism and Alchemy came into existence. He was still being referenced by the likes of Isaac Newton during the European Enlightenment, and his writings remain popular in esoteric and occult circles even today.Discovery of his existence came about in Italy, at the same time as other ancient writers, including Plato, were being translated into Latin for the very first time, prompting the whirlwind array of changes we call 'the Renaissance.'The man to whom the task fell specifically was Italian philosopher and Catholic priest Marsilio Ficino, who soon established a Neo-Platonic Academy attended by artists including Boticelli, Leonardo da Vinci and Raphael, their work all funded by Cosimo di Medici, the richest man in the world.Their collective project was to recover the past and remake it, all so mankind could reshape its physical existence through magic. Ficino's product was The Hermetica, an entire magical system based on philosophies of Matter and Spirit. It quickly became one of the most famous magic books in all of history, and for centuries the story of Hermes Trismegistus, his learning, wisdom, and magical system, were all beyond doubt.Only then along came a classical scholar and philologist called Isaac Casaubon, who had questions about some of the 'ancient Egyptian' vocabulary used in The Hermetica, which prompted others to wonder whether Hermes Trismegistus had ever existed at all...We really hope you enjoy the episode, and Eleanor will speak with you again on Saturday for this week's Local Legends episode all about Brecknockshire with the wonderful Horatio Clare!Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon, too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?Learn more at www.threeravenspodcast.com, join our Patreon at www.patreon.com/threeravenspodcast, and find links to our social media channels here: https://linktr.ee/threeravenspodcastREGISTER FOR THE TALES OF SOUTHERN ENGLAND TOURProud members of the Dark Cast Network.Visit our website Join our Patreon Social media channels and sponsors Hosted on Acast.

Grant and Roger return with Roger in peak “miserable old bastard” form, tearing into Elon Musk's latest stunt, a so‑called 10‑sigma gold crash, and Djokovic's absurd epic over Sinner. From gimmick “sports” like bull poker and car‑jitsu to the very real quality of women's volleyball in Italy, they ask what's authentic, what's trash, and whether Gen Z will ever care about real sport.

Have you ever felt tired in a way sleep doesn't fix? Like you're carrying the weight of everything — the world, your family, your responsibilities, your own emotions — and you don't know how to put it down? This episode is for you. Because here's the truth most of us don't hear enough:

This week, we're kicking off a two-part series on Charlotte of Belgium (sometimes known as Carlota of Mexico) while sipping on a Ranch Water. In Part One, we meet Charlotte as a beloved child turned purpose-driven young woman, then follow her whirlwind courtship with Archduke Maximilian of Austria and her arrival at the rigid Habsburg court. If that court sounds familiar, it's because we've been here before — this is the same world that made life miserable for Empress Elisabeth of Austria (Sisi), married to Emperor Franz Joseph. Charlotte, however, seems to understand the assignment, quickly becoming everything a Habsburg princess is supposed to be… even as her marriage quietly begins to unravel. From whispered affairs in Italy to a voyage that breaks her marriage beyond repair, Charlotte's story takes a sharp, devastating turn. And just when it seems like things couldn't get worse, a knock at the door offers an unexpected — and dangerous — new role: Empress of Mexico. Cheers

On this week's episode of The Business of Watches, a brand that's very much in the news. We're in Meyrin, just outside of Geneva, to talk to the head of Baume & Mercier, the near-200 year old brand that's just been sold by Richemont to Italy's Damiani Group. Michael Guenoun speaks passionately and with conviction about the pressures the brand faces due to the strong Swiss franc, rising costs, and its commitment to remaining in the approachable-priced segment of the watch market. Guenoun highlights the brand's rich history, its model lines, and its strategy for retail, distribution, and pricing. Recorded before the sale of Baume & Mercier was announced officially, we asked him if the brand was up for sale, and his answer is worth tuning in for. The conversation gives the listener a sense of where Guenoun and his team expect the brand to be and achieve under new leadership for a deal that's still short on details, but is expected to close this summer and take Baume & Mercier under a new corporate umbrella with a company that is based in Italy rather than in Switzerland like Richemont.But first, we're joined by a very special guest for his take on the latest business headlines in the watch world. Adrian Barker is the man behind Bark & Jack - the popular and influential YouTube channel and accessories shop selling straps, coffee mugs, and other products.  It's a big moment for Adrian as he's just about to launch his first watch collaboration - a dive watch with U.K. brand Christopher Ward. Adrian gives us the lowdown on what he learned from the collaboration process with the watchmaker and what he's doing with the design to make this very much an expression of his own personal taste and philosophy on what makes a proper watch. We also talk about Patek Philippe's recent decision to roll back prices in the U.S. in response to lower tariff rates, while implementing another price increase in other markets. Show Notes 0:57 Adrian Barker and Bark & Jack 1:34 Visit Glasgow 2:23 Christopher Ward 3:11 ETA SA 5:00 The story of Christopher Ward and CEO Mike France 9:20 Who Makes Christopher Ward Watches (Bark & Jack) 12:08 Bark & Jack products 14:05 Patek Philippe 17:37 Richemont Sells Baume & Mercier 20:04 Damiani Group 22:55 Michael Guenoun (World Tempus) 23:30 History of Baume & Mercier 25:25 Riviera collection (Monochrome) 26:51 Clifton Baumatic 28:00 Baumatic movement (Caliber Corner) 38:30 TimeVallee 45:30 As China Retreats And The U.S. Wobbles, Is India The Next Great Hope For The Luxury Watch Market? 49:20 Richemont maisons 53:55 Who wants to buy Baume & Mercier and why?55:04 Watches and Wonders 2026

Greg is back, the beers are flowing, and somehow this Super Bowl turned into the Missionary Monday of championship games. We debate whether anyone is actually excited, break down why buffalo chicken dip is doing the heavy lifting, and spiral into music takes that range from Kid Rock avoidance strategies to why Nate Dogg should've stayed a featured artist.

You read that title right, GateCrashers does sports again! Come join Patrick, Dan, and newcomer Kate McGowan as they dive into the Olympic Games, just in time for the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan and Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy! The Olympics are probably the most prestigious sporting event, uniting the world every 4 years for international competition across a wide variety of sports. Patrick, Dan, and Kate talk about the history of the Olympics and their personal relationships with the Games (like how Patrick watches every single medal event at each Olympics!) before diving into what to expect at this year's Winter Games. Patrick eagerly talks about the absolutely wild new sport of Ski Mountaineering, and Dan talks about his love of all things Curling. Patrick and Kate give an overview of the broader Olympic program, including sore spots like the lack of women's Nordic Combined and the absence of most Russian and Belarusian athletes. They also talk about what to expect at this year's Olympic ice hockey tournament, with the return of NHL players for the first time since 2014 (and some very direct comments on how, if you want to support queer people in ice hockey after watching Heated Rivalry, women's ice hockey might be for you). Kate then gives us a deep dive into the marquee event of any Winter Olympic Games: the Figure Skating program. She gives us an overview of the differences in the figure skating events (which include men's singles, women's singles, pairs, and ice dancing), as well as a very brief explanation of different jumps that constitute the sport, including the recently unbanned backflip. Patrick and Kate then preview who the medal contenders are this year, including who is representing Team USA. They also teach Dan about the unprecedented athletic feat that is Ilia Malinin and his quadruple axle. We hope that you enjoy this episode and join us for 19 days of incredible international sports at the 2026 Winter Olympics!

Rome. 1610. A painter who sees God in the faces of prostitutes and killers is on the run for murder.His name is Caravaggio. He drinks too much. He loves recklessly. Men, women, it doesn't matter. He picks fights with swordsmen and screams at the heavens in candlelit chapels. He paints the way other men pray, except his prayers are in defiance. And the Catholic Church can't decide whether to pardon him or let the bounty hunters finish the job.This screenplay by Richard Vetere, a Pulitzer nominee and Golden Palm winner whose work has been produced by Francis Ford Coppola, follows Caravaggio from the brothels of Rome to a besieged fortress on Malta where a scarred Grand Master offers him sanctuary and something that looks a lot like love. But sanctuary has a price. And Caravaggio has never paid what he owes without bleeding for it.There are popes making deals in candlelight. Brothers hunting him across the Mediterranean for killing their own. A muse he left behind in Rome who can't wait much longer. A rival painter who despises his work and can't stop staring at it. Knights nailed to crosses and set on fire floating into the harbor at dawn. A prison cell carved into rock like a grave. And an escape across open sea in a fishing boat guided by a boy too afraid to speak.This is not a quiet period piece. This is Game of Thrones in Renaissance Italy with paintbrushes and rapiers.Craig Parker, who played Haldir in Lord of the Rings, plays Caravaggio. Academy Award nominee and Golden Globe winner Bruce Davison plays the Grand Master. Dan Lauria, America's dad from The Wonder Years, plays the Cardinal pulling every string in Rome. Ray Abruzzo, Little Carmine from The Sopranos, plays the Pope. The cast includes Broadway veterans, stars of The Chosen, the voices behind the biggest video games on the planet, and a former Navy test pilot born in Italy playing an Italian swordsman.Fourteen actors. One genius who painted like God was guiding his hand and lived like the devil was chasing him. Turns out both were true.This is Caravaggio. This is Table Read.

The Winter Escape event wraps up with one last adventure, with Kristoffer Polaha & Emilie Ullerup leading the charge! ABOUT MISSING THE BOATStrangers Kelly and Parker both end up on the same Italian cruise, but after missing the boat during a stop, they're forced to team up and race across southern Italy to catch up.AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR MISSING THE BOATJanuary 31, 2026 | Hallmark Movies NowCAST & CREW OF MISSING THE BOATEmilie Ullerup as KellyKristoffer Polaha as ParkerBRAN'S MISSING THE BOAT SYNOPSISWelcome to the Port of Rome, Italy. Kelly boards the cruise ship, happy as can be. Already on board, we meet Parker and his sister, Emily. Parker is there on business with his boss, Adam—whom he absolutely hates. He works for Crandall Cruise Lines, which is potentially merging with a much larger company.Kelly is also there for work. She represents that larger company and is onboard to inspect the cruise and report any issues she finds.She bumps into Parker, and they immediately hit it off. When the ship docks in Palermo, they decide to spend the day together and actually have some fun. They go on a donkey ride, but the donkeys wander off and leave them stranded. When the van meant to take them back to the ship won't start, they realize they're running late… and they miss the boat. OH NO.They try to rent a car, but none are available, so they rush to catch a train. Things are going well until, in the middle of the night, the train workers go on strike. Kelly gives an impassioned speech about how Parker missing the ship would be disastrous, and somehow it works. They reach the port—only to discover that a massive storm has forced the cruise ship to relocate.They end up staying at one of Crandall's hotels, where they spend a wonderful evening drinking wine and talking about life. Meanwhile, Parker's boss tells him to do everything he can to keep Kelly off the ship—he's discovered who she is and why she's really there.Parker can't bring himself to do it. Even though he's forgotten his passport in the hotel room, he sends Kelly ahead in a taxi. But she can't leave without him. She comes back for Parker, and they finally kiss.They take a tiny boat, then a scooter, and eventually make it back to the ship. When they arrive, Parker's boss apologizes to Kelly for making Parker stall—something she didn't even realize had happened. To make matters worse, Kelly's own boss fires her, and she blames Parker for the whole thing. He insists he never actually stalled, but it's too late.Parker confronts his boss, who apologizes, so… small win.Later, Kelly looks through photos of the two of them and realizes Parker was telling the truth all along. She goes to find him, they make up, and she's brought into the merger pitch after all. Just as the deal is about to be signed, the company owner backs out, admitting he actually loves cruising and doesn't want to sell.Parker and Kelly celebrate with a kiss.
