Back in 1911, the Mona Lisa didn't get a lot of attention. Art critics considered it an excellent example of a painting from the renaissance era, but the general public wasn't nearly so enamored. That changed in August of that year, when someone plucked it off the wall of the Louvre, busted it out of its glass box and frame, and took off with it. Remember, kids, history hoes always cite their sources! For this episode, Kristin pulled from: “Who stole the Mona Lisa?” by Simon Kuper for Slate “Stolen: How the Mona Lisa became the world's most famous painting,” by James Zug for Smithsonian Magazine “Stealing Mona Lisa,” by Dorothy and Thomas Hoobler for Vanity Fair The documentary “Mona Lisa is Missing” “When Picasso went on trial for stealing the Mona Lisa,” by Ian Shank for Artsy.net “The man who stole the Mona Lisa,” by Laura Cumming for The Guardian “The Theft That Made The ‘Mona Lisa' A Masterpiece,” NPR.org Are you enjoying An Old Timey Podcast?

Minter Dialogue with Paul Assaiante (re-release of episode 554) "Coach" Paul Assaiante is one of the greatest coaches in the history of intercollegiate athletics. He's labelled as the “winningest coach in college sports history,” sporting a 252-match winning streak over 13 years, a 507-29 all-time record, and winning 17 NCAA Championship titles as head coach at Trinity College. Paul systematically brought together great players from around the world and demonstrated how teammates from diverse cultures can unite to build a winning culture and team. And his experience is also enriched by having coached the US National Team in squash (17 years) as well as World Team Tennis with Billie Jean King. To add to his list of accomplishments, he's also co-author with James Zug of the book, "Run to the Roar, Coaching to Overcome Fear," (published by Penguin) and the subject of a 2013 documentary film, All In, by Marc DiBenedetto. In this conversation, we discuss his philosophy of coaching, how he's been guided by his personal purpose, the best ways to train, motivate and guide a team of individual athletes to bring out their best. We also look at the role of empathy in coaching, how to learn, improve and perform under stress, and the way to get the best out of everyone. He also addresses some of the challenges of coaching in today's environment, with the perils of social media, helicopter parenting and coming to grips with one's emotions.

It is one of the great secrets in the game. In a few days, another Jarvis & Kaplan Cup starts. Founded in 1960, the Jarvis is a week-long inter-provincial team tournament in South Africa. Paul Atkinson and Mark Reid, two Jarvis veterans, explain to James Zug the traditions and hijinks of the Jarvis.

Paul Selby is opinionated, controversial and always an iconoclast. The longtime English coach and father of three ranked professionals, including Daryl Selby, sat down with James Zug and Chris McClintick at the U.S. Open last fall. Selby told of his highly unusual introduction to the game, how he raised his children and his provocative thoughts on developing the game.

Every so often I read a book that reminds me that things weren’t at all what they appear to have been in hindsight. James Zug‘s wonderfully written The Guardian: The History of South Africa’s Extraordinary Anti-Apartheid Newspaper (Michigan State UP, 2007) is one such book. For years I studied and wrote about Russia and the Soviet Union. In that time, I came to think of communists as at best horribly misguided and at worst positively malevolent. Zug reminded me that in fact communists were on the right side of many issues that I hold dear. One of them, and the focus of The Guardian, was racism generally and Apartheid in particular. With a novelist’s skill, Zug chronicles the activities of a remarkably brave group of South African leftists, fellow-travelers, and Party members who, through the pages of their newspaper and with their very lives, fought racism in South Africa when so many ‘right-thinking people’ stood by in silence. He doesn’t sugar-coat the story, and never fails to point out when The Guardian‘s editors and writers were on the wrong side of an issue. But Zug saves them from being written out of history all together by broad-brushed dismissals of mid-century communism. Not only that, he tells a ripping tale. Please read this book.
