At the 1936 Berlin Olympics, Adolf Hitler gave the legendary runner a mysterious gift: four potted oak tree saplings — one for each of the four gold medals that Owens won, while surrounded by Nazis, in one of the greatest performances in the history of sports. Almost a century later, correspondent David Fleming examines what Owens decided to do with his so-called Hitler Oaks... and why that decision remains an enduring act of American defiance. Plus: tree people, myth-busting, redlining and witch-doctor science. This episode originally aired August 6th, 2024. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

In this week's episode, McKay discusses the importance of an abundance mindset. He opens the podcast by discussing Britney Bowe's Olympic history and her decision to give up her spot in the 2022 Olympic trials to Erin Jackson. This selfless act hardly granted Bowe a medal, but it led Jackson to win gold in the women's 500 m speed skating event. Christensen argues that this is a prime example of abundance thinking and grace. Because humans tend to resent and envy the success of others, especially those in close proximity, Christensen urges the audience to replace envy and resentment with grace. He then goes on to detail another Olympic tale between Mikaela Shiffrin and Sophia Goggia. After Shiffrin practiced with Goggia's skis and got her fastest time, Goggia gave Shiffrin her skis before an event in the hopes that she might be as successful in the competition as she was in practice. The story exemplifies how abundance and grace can transform our attitudes and help others in a positive way. In contrast, McKay then tells the audience about the tense relationship between Thomas Edison and his once student, Nikola Tesla. When Edison dismissed and admonished Tesla for one of his suggestions, Tesla quit and decided to patent his own ideas. He eventually received the notoriety he deserved and was tasked with engineering Chicago's famous World Fair instead of Thomas Edison. McKay segues into the episode's conclusion where he discusses the inherent value of personal worth and security that comes from an abundant mindset. He closes out the podcast with a quick anecdote about Jesse Owens and Luz Long's friendship that blossomed from the 1936 Olympic Games. Long is rumored to have given Owens advice before his gold medal run, despite being Owens' opposition. While Owens came out on top, the pair developed a lifelong friendship in the face of a disapproving Nazi Germany. Long story short, McKay advises that if we truly believe that there is enough success and happiness to go round, prosperity will come.The Finer Details of This Episode:The story of Britney Bowe giving up her spot so that Erin Jackson could win GoldThe importance of rejoicing in others' victoriesWhat abundant thinking isWhy we resent others' successMen envy occupational success; women envy physical attractivenessWhy we envy close friends moreHow to replace envy with graceSophia Goggia gifting Mikaela Shiffrin her skis for an eventEdison's scarcity mentality and how he devalued Tesla's ideasThe inherent value of personal worth and securityThe friendship between Jesse Owens and Luz LongQuotes: “Every day, in most things we do, we have a choice. We can see things as scarce, like the chances to win a race at the Olympics and decide not to help or cheer others on, or we can see things as abundant—that there is more than enough for everyone.”“I believe one of the most powerful characteristics you can develop in life, one that will reward you for years to come, is to rejoice in the other person's victory.”“It's common that our reaction to other people's success isn't always positive. We tend to draw comparisons between what we have and what we perceive others are having—our thoughts get distorted and what they have grows in our minds and what we have shrinks at the same time.”“In one survey, more than 74% of respondents reported experiencing major envy recently in their lives. Surprisingly, researchers found that we most often envy others of our own gender.”“When you take envy out of your heart, it needs to be replaced with something, otherwise the void will be filled with envy again. So what do you fill it with? Grace.”“Most people

Despite their name, the Harlem Globetrotters weren't originally from New York's Harlem neighborhood, nor did they start out as true world travellers. This all-Black basketball team, founded by Jewish immigrant Abe Saperstein, originated on Chicago's South Side and began touring the Midwest rather humbly in Saperstein's unheated Ford Model T. With his sharp promotional skills and the players' incredible talent, the Globetrotters quickly grew into an international sensation. Author-brothers Mark & Matt Jacob ("Globetrotter: How Abe Saperstein Shook Up the World of Sports") step into the box office this week to discuss their definitive new biography of Saperstein, a diminutive visionary whose outsized innovations made a profound impact on basketball - and beyond. Starting in the 1920s, the Globetrotters battled everything from harsh weather to rampant racism, all while building an iconic reputation for excellence and comedy that would captivate audiences worldwide. But Saperstein's influence stretched far beyond the Globetrotters. He helped keep baseball's Negro Leagues alive, was a force in getting pitching great Satchel Paige his shot at the majors, and befriended Olympic star Jesse Owens when he fell on hard times. When Saperstein was denied an opportunity to own an NBA franchise, he started the rival American Basketball League, where he helped pioneer the three-point shot, now a staple of the modern game. + + +   SPONSOR THANKS: Old School Shirts.com (promo code: GOODSEATS) https://oldschoolshirts.com/goodseats Royal Retros (promo code: SEATS): https://www.503-sports.com?aff=2   READ EARLY AND OFTEN: "Globetrotter: How Abe Saperstein Shook Up the World of Sports" (2024): https://amzn.to/3TNDFaM FIND AND FOLLOW: Website: https://goodseatsstillavailable.com/ X/Twitter: https://twitter.com/GoodSeatsStill Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/goodseatsstillavailable/ Threads: https://www.threads.net/@goodseatsstillavailable Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GoodSeatsStillAvailable/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@goodseatsstillavailable

The original Harlem Globetrotters weren't from Harlem, and they didn't start out as globetrotters. The talented team, started by Jewish immigrant Abe Saperstein, was from Chicago's South Side and toured the Midwest in Saperstein's model-T. But with Saperstein's savvy and the players' skills, the Globetrotters would become a worldwide sensationAt 5'3”, Saperstein is not who we might imagine would bring the sport of basketball to the entire world, pioneer the three-point shot, or to befriend the likes of Jesse Owens, Satchel Paige, and Wilt Chamberlain to name a few. Born in 1902 in London's Whitechapel slum neighborhood to parents who had immigrated from Poland, Saperstein and his family then immigrated to America in 1906.  He founded the team in the 1920s, steadily building a reputation for talent and comedy until their footprint covered the entire world.Abe Saperstein's impact went well beyond the Harlem Globetrotters. He helped keep baseball's Negro Leagues alive, was a force in getting pitching great Satchel Paige his shot at the majors, and befriended Olympic star Jesse Owens when he fell on hard times. When Saperstein started the American Basketball League, he pioneered the three-point shot, which has dramatically changed the sport. Today's guests, Mark Jacob and Matthew Jacob, authors of “Globetrotter: How Abe Saperstein Shook Up the World of Sports” piece together the of his life.

Jesse Owens' victories at the 1936 Berlin Olympics made him an international sports hero, and a symbol of the civil rights movement. His friendship with the German long jumper Carl 'Luz' Long also stood as an outward act of defiance against Adolf Hitler, and fuelled condemnation of the racial ideology of the Third Reich. However, his life away from the Olympics is less widely understood, as are the challenges that he faced back in the United States.Today we're joined by David Lee Morgan Jr., a sportswriter and author of the children's book series 'Black Trailblazers in Sports'. Dan and David outline the context of Owens' storied Olympic wins and ask why a man received as a hero abroad was treated like a second-class citizen at home.Produced by James Hickmann and edited by Dougal Patmore.Enjoy unlimited access to award-winning original documentaries that are released weekly and AD-FREE podcasts.

This week would have marked Jesse Owens' 111th birthday. Born on Sept. 12, 1913, Owens was an American track and field athlete who became a symbol of triumph over adversity. Raised in Alabama and later Ohio, Owens' talent for running and jumping was evident from a young age. He gained international fame at the 1936 Berlin Olympics, where he won four gold medals, defying Nazi racial ideology. Despite facing racial discrimination in the U.S., Owens' legacy endures as a champion of both sport and equality. He passed away in 1980, leaving behind an indelible mark on history.

In this episode, we explore the controversial 1936 Summer Olympics held in Berlin, where the Nazi regime used the event as a platform for propaganda amidst rising political tensions. Highlighting pivotal moments, including Jesse Owens' four gold medals that challenged Aryan superiority, we examine the Olympics' dual role as both a showcase of athletic prowess and a tool for political manipulation. The legacy of these Games continues to shape discussions on the intersection of sports and politics today.

El otro héroe de Berlín Los Juegos Olímpicos han dado para multitud de anécdotas. Sin duda, uno de los juegos más recordados por sus connotaciones fueron los de Berlín en 1936. Allí un hombre se jugo la vida por sus ideales, y fue inspiración para los atletas de los futuros Juegos Olímpicos. Pablo Tresgallo nos habla de esta apasionante historia. Y no, no es Jesse Owens. El enigma de la Runas El origen del alfabeto rúnico es incierto, su uso iba más allá de ser un lenguaje. Eran códigos mágicos y esotéricos. Su influencia ha llegado hasta nuestros días en los ámbitos más curiosos. Jesus Paton, experto en procesos tecnológicos en la Edad de hierro en la Península Ibérica y en Europa, nos lo cuenta. Los Galindos El quíntuple crimen en el cortijo de los Galindos sigue siendo un misterio sin resolver. Quizá una de las víctimas se llevó el secreto a la tumba.

James Cleveland "Jesse" Owens grew up in a poor, small town in Alabama in the early 1900s, where he faced racial discrimination and health issues. Despite these challenges, Owens' Christian family believed in a better future. When he was nine, they moved to Cleveland, Ohio, seeking better opportunities. In Cleveland, Owens excelled in school sports, setting national high school records in track events. He later attended Ohio State University, where he continued to shine as an athlete.In 1935, despite an injury, Owens achieved remarkable success, setting multiple world records. His athletic prowess earned him a place in the 1936 Berlin Olympics, held under the Nazi regime. Owens' stunning performances at the Olympics, winning four gold medals, defied Nazi propaganda and made him a global icon.While in Berlin, Owens formed an unlikely friendship with German athlete Luz Long, who offered him crucial advice during the long jump competition, helping Owens secure the gold medal. This act of sportsmanship transcended racial and political barriers, highlighting the human spirit's capacity for connection and compassion.

1936, Berlin. Alors que la dictature nazie a gangréné l'Allemagne, les Jeux Olympiques vont tout de même avoir lieu, dans une ambiance tendue. Mais au milieu de cet événement qui devait servir de démonstration de la suprématie aryenne, un homme va anéantir ces théories à coups d'exploits sportifs. Son nom : Jesse Owens... Un garçon chétif qui adore courir James Cleveland Owens est le dernier d'une grande famille de 10 enfants. J.C et ses frères et sœurs travaillent avec leurs parents. C'est un petit garçon chétif, ses poumons sont fragiles mais il adore courir. La famille Owens vit paisiblement. Du moins, autant qu'elle le peut, car la ségrégation est très violente en Alabama. En 1922, alors que Jesse a 9 ans, ils déménagent donc à Cleveland. L'Ohio n'est pas non plus un modèle de tolérance, mais cela leur permet de trouver du travail un peu plus facilement et un peu mieux payé. Dans sa nouvelle école, J.C devient Jesse, à cause de son léger accent du sud que les professeurs ont du mal à comprendre. A partir de maintenant, il restera connu sous ce nouveau prénom. Lors des premiers cours de sport, l'entraîneur d'athlétisme de son collège, Charles Riley repère ce Jesse...

As I leave Berlin - the city of Jesse Owens, David Bowie and now Lamine Yamal - I'm recording this final report from Euro 2024, where I have been embedded once more with the Spain team. I saw the treble winners of 2008-12 up close too, and they may not have a prime Iniesta or Xavi, but in their own way I think this team is just as good. Some of them spoke to me after the final, and what a joyful, brotherly bunch they are. The trophy is in good hands. This is a public episode.
