Columbus' major airports are much more than places to catch a flight. John Glenn International, Rickenbacker International, and Bolton Field are the region's front doors — a first impression for visitors, a critical link for global businesses, and a major piece of the critical infrastructure needed to support Central Ohio's next chapter of growth. As Daren Griffin takes the helm as the new President & CEO of the Columbus Regional Airport Authority, he arrives at a truly defining moment. John Glenn International is building a new $2 billion terminal, Rickenbacker International continues to play a major and ever-growing role in cargo and economic development, and Columbus travelers are asking the question every growing region faces: where can we fly from here? Meet Daren Griffin as we explore what's ahead for aviation in our region and how Central Ohio's growth will depend on bold airport innovations and investment. How will John Glenn's gleaming new terminal change the passenger experience? What will it take to attract more nonstop flights and stronger global connections? How are new technology, airline economics, cargo logistics, workforce needs, and customer expectations reshaping the future and the experience of air travel?

Even though I am technically in the middle of the Noss Gold Treasure epiodes, I felt the need to go on a  "wander"  and produce a new episode for our core journey here at JFK The Enduring Secret. In Episode 323, we begin to explore one of the most intense backdrops of the Kennedy administration: the Cuba Project. Following the disastrous and public failure of the Bay of Pigs invasion in April 1961, President John F. Kennedy and his brother, Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy, did not choose to retreat. Instead, they doubled down, concluding that the next attempt to topple Fidel Castro needed to be smarter, tighter, more deniable, and relentless.This commitment birthed Operation Mongoose, a massive covert program led by counterinsurgency specialist Brigadier General Edward Lansdale and strictly overseen by the White House. To wage this secret war, the CIA established JM WAVE in the suburbs of Miami—a massive intelligence station that functioned as a "small spy city". Under the leadership of Ted Shackley, this operation directed thousands of Cuban exile operatives, commanded an enormous budget, and conducted hundreds of "pinprick" sabotage raids against Cuban infrastructure.However, beneath the official campaign lay a much darker shadow war. This episode delves into the deeply secretive "Operation 40," a targeted killing and counterintelligence unit originally intended to purge communist officials. We also explore "ZR RIFLE," the CIA's executive action program that astonishingly partnered with the Mafia to orchestrate assassination plots against Castro, and the chilling "Operation Northwoods," a declassified proposal by the Joint Chiefs of Staff to stage fake terrorist attacks on American soil as a pretext for a full-scale invasion of Cuba.Ultimately, the Cuba Project failed in its primary objective: Castro survived, and the secret war was effectively swallowed by the Cuban Missile Crisis. Yet, its true legacy was the creation of a vast, unaccountable paramilitary network. The operatives trained participants in the Florida swamps—including men like E. Howard Hunt and Frank Sturgis—and would later surface in some of the darkest chapters of American history, from the hunt for Che Guevara to the Watergate scandal. Tune in to explore how a secret machine built to kill a revolution ended up haunting the United States for the rest of the century.APPENDIX — A Chronology of the Secret WarMarch 1960 — President Eisenhower approves the original CIA covert-action program against Castro that Kennedy will inherit.January 3, 1961 — Eisenhower reportedly suggests to General Lemnitzer that the U.S. "could think of manufacturing something" to justify intervention in Cuba.January 1961 — Kennedy is inaugurated; the U.S. and Cuba sever diplomatic relations.Early 1961 — Richard Bissell directs William Harvey to build a "stand-by" assassination capability; the ZR/RIFLE Executive Action project takes shape.April 17–19, 1961 — Brigade 2506 lands at the Bay of Pigs and is destroyed within three days.April 22, 1961 — Kennedy appoints the Taylor–Kennedy Board of Inquiry (Cuba Study Group).June 13, 1961 — The board reports: "no long-term living with Castro as a neighbor."October 5, 1961 — NSAM 100 directs post-Castro and military-contingency planning.November 3, 1961 — Kennedy authorizes the covert program that becomes Operation Mongoose.November 30, 1961 — Kennedy's memorandum formally establishes Mongoose; Lansdale named Chief of Operations.December 1, 1961 — RFK tells the Special Group Cuba is now top priority; Castro declares, "I am a Marxist-Leninist."January 18–19, 1962 — Lansdale assigns 32 planning tasks; RFK calls Cuba "top priority — all else is secondary." The Special Group (Augmented) is established.February 1962 — Shackley brought to JMWAVE; soon made station chief. JMWAVE relocates to NAS Richmond under the Zenith Technical Enterprises front.February 20, 1962 — Lansdale submits the six-phase Basic Action Plan aiming at revolt by October 1962. (John Glenn's orbital flight occurs the same day — later a Northwoods pretext target.)February 26, 1962 — RFK orders Lansdale to stand down to intelligence-gathering for three months; the Joint Chiefs' frustration hardens.March 1962 — SGA approves Phase I (intelligence only).

What happens when a former U.S. diplomat turns his attention to purpose in later life? In this episode, John Graham shares why meaning doesn't fade with age—it sharpens. John helps us better understand it means to live a meaningful life—especially as we grow older? In this Living to 100 Club episode, I'm joined by John Graham, an 83-year-old former diplomat, co-founder of the Giraffe Heroes Project, and creator of the popular “Badass Granddad” video series, reaching over 120,000 followers across social platforms. John has spent decades telling stories of individuals who “stick their necks out” to solve real-world problems. His work challenges the idea that aging is a period of decline. Instead, he makes a compelling case that later life can be a time of renewed purpose, creativity, and engagement. We explore: Why meaning—not money or status—becomes central in later life How storytelling can inspire action and connection The importance of risk, adventure, and reinvention at any age How John is reaching younger generations through short-form video What it means to stay relevant, engaged, and “alive” well into our later years John shares stories from his own life—often beginning with adventure and humor—before drawing out deeper lessons about civic responsibility, personal growth, and living with intention. This is a conversation about aging differently—seeing later life not as an endpoint, but as an opportunity to contribute, create, and connect in new ways. Mini Bio John Graham is the Project's Executive Director, its principal speaker/workshop leader and Director of Giraffe Heroes International—the overseas affiliates launched by the Project. He was a US diplomat for 15 years, where his assignments included revolutionary Libya, Viet Nam, NATO, the US Mission to the UN and a stint as foreign policy advisor to Senator John Glenn. He joined the Giraffe Heroes Project staff in 1983. His degrees are from Harvard and Stanford, and his mountain climbing credits include the first ascent of the north wall of Denali, a climb that's never been repeated. He is the author of Outdoor Leadership, It's Up to Us, Stick Your Neck Out and Quest.

The Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History has a new exhibit tracing the rise, near extinction and recovery of the bison. Museum director Kirk Johnson talks about a prehistoric skull at the centerpiece of the story and why it's important for American history. And, NASA's Artemis II mission made history this month by sending four astronauts farther from Earth than any other humans have been before. But moments like this echo the earliest days of American spaceflight in 1962, when John Glenn orbited the planet three times in a cramped capsule called the Mercury Friendship 7. Mike Neufeld, curator emeritus at the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum, discusses the history and modern significance of the Friendship 7See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.NPR Privacy Policy

LEITURA BÍBLICA DO DIA: EFÉSIOS 4:1-7,11-16 PLANO DE LEITURA ANUAL: 1 SAMUEL 30–31; LUCAS 13:23-35  Já fez seu devocional hoje? Aproveite e marque um amigo para fazer junto com você! Confira:  O livro Estrelas além do tempo (Harper Collins, 2016) relata a ida de John Glenn ao espaço. Os computadores eram recentes e sujeitos a erros em 1962. Glenn não confiava neles e preocupava-se com os cálculos do lançamento, mas sabia que uma mulher inteligente poderia calcular esses números e confiava nela. “Se ela disser que os números estão certos, irei”, disse Glenn. Katherine Johnson era professora, mãe, amava Jesus e servia em sua igreja. Deus a abençoara com uma mente brilhante. Por volta de 1950, a NASA a contratou para auxiliar no programa espacial. Na época, Glenn se referiu a ela como um “computador humano”. Nosso chamado pode não ser para a matemática, mas Deus nos chama para algo: “A cada um de nós, porém, ele concedeu uma dádiva, por meio da generosidade de Cristo” (EFÉSIOS 4:7). Devemos viver “de modo digno” do chamado recebido (v.1). Somos parte de um só corpo, no qual cada um cumpre “sua função específica” (v.16). Os cálculos de Katherine confirmaram a trajetória, e o lança mento à órbita foi perfeito. Mas esse era apenas um dos seus chamados! Lembre-se, ela também era mãe, professora e obreira na igreja. Podemos nos perguntar para o que Deus nos chama, seja grande ou pequeno. Estamos prontos para exercer os dons da dádiva concedida, vivendo “de modo digno do chamado” (v.1)?  Por:  KENNETH PETERSEN

For most of their lives, Stephen and Zack have kept their eyes to the stars and wondering if NASA or anybody else will ever again get serious about launching ships up there.[1. Image credit: SpaceX on X.com.] Now it seems that moment is upon us. Lord willing, next month's launch of Artemis II will drive new great leaps back to the Moon, not only to orbit or put down boots, but to put down roots. Meanwhile, private firms build reusable rockets and plan satellite networks while setting their sights on Mars. So what other science fictions will come true in reality? Join us to discern and celebrate the God-exalting glories of human spaceflight to faraway lands for this landmark 300th episode of Lorehaven's Fantastical Truth.

Today, every space mission starts on Earth A brief summary of spaceflight: Sputnik 1 satellite (Oct. 1957), Yuri Gagarin (April 1961 aboard Vostok 1), Alan Shephard first American (May 1961), John Glenn first to orbit (Feb. 1962 aboard Friendship 1), 1960s moon race, moon landing (July 1969), six moon landings 1980s to early 2000s: Space Shuttle program, ISS, many others Alas, disasters: 1986 Challenger explosion, 2003 Columbia disaster Late 2000s to present: private companies brings new energy Elon Musk: classic humanist, entrepreneur, controversial, mess But a genius billionaire, anyway, and pioneer in new rocketry Same with Amazon's Jeff Bezos, whatever else you think of him These and more are winning goals to make ships less expensive SpaceX rockets can now reverse themselves to land on platforms 2024: Space X “mechazilla” arms caught a returning rocket This month, NASA postponed the Artemis II launch until March. Last week, SpaceX routinely launched a new crew to the ISS. And finally, Elon Musk revealed he's prioritizing lunar missions: For those unaware, SpaceX has already shifted focus to building a self-growing city on the Moon, as we can potentially achieve that in less than 10 years, whereas Mars would take 20+ years. The mission of SpaceX remains the same: extend consciousness and life as we know it to the stars. It is only possible to travel to Mars when the planets align every 26 months (six month trip time), whereas we can launch to the Moon every 10 days (2 day trip time). This means we can iterate much faster to complete a Moon city than a Mars city. That said, SpaceX will also strive to build a Mars city and begin doing so in about 5 to 7 years, but the overriding priority is securing the future of civilization and the Moon is faster. 2. In years, new rockets will reach the Moon Artemis I (Nov. 2022) tested the Space Launch System. Notably, this system is developed separately from reusable rockets. Artemis II (March 2026?) will launch astronauts around the Moon. The mission will last four days and orbit the Moon's far side. The names of these absolutely real, nonfictional astronauts are: Commander Reid Wiseman Pilot Victor Glover Mission specialist Christina Koch Mission specialist astronaut Jeremy Hansen (CSA) As memes foretold, we hope they come back with superpowers. Artemis III will be a real moon landing, first since Apollo 17 in 1972. That mission may launch as early as 2028. No crew announced yet. Axiom Space developed new super-upgraded spacesuits for this. NASA identified possible nine landing sites, all near the South Pole. That region has stable daylight/temperatures plus crater water ice. All said, the first lunar bases could be south polar settlements. Many speculators suggest future lunar manufacturing in this area. NASA, Department of Energy to Develop Lunar Surface Reactor by 2030 Materials include water ice, lunar regolith, and other metals. Musk wants to make AI satellites there and launch them into space. Elon Musk Wants to Build an A.I. Satellite Factory on the Moon Risks: extra radiation could drive habitats under protective layers. You could shield with thick ceilings or else use lunar lava tubes. Listen to our March 2025 podcast series: Martian Month. 3. In decades, mankind may land on Mars In the recent past, Musk and others thought the Moon was jejune. After all, we've already landed there. Where's the fun in returning? But now the Moon seems more accessible. Walk before you run. Last year for ACE's launch, we shared a series: Martian Month. Unlike the Moon, Mars has atmosphere and daylight cycles. It's a little “warmer,” with slightly more radiation protection. Also, Mars has less known surface ice but more carbon dioxide. How to get there? You need to wait about once every two years. Possible transport: nuclear-powered rockets, now in development. NASA administrator Jared Isaacman: nuclear-electric propulsion? 6 Things You Should Know About Nuclear Thermal Propulsion That may reduce travel time by 25 percent (from 6 to 4 months?). Timing: a matter of decades, perhaps the 2030s at the earliest. So yes, you may live to see this happen, yet likely not travel there. Speculators/rocketeers see philosophical, humanitarian motives. For the Christian, our motives for spaceflight are a bit different. After all, God made humans to steward the Earth and maybe more. Alas, sin interferes with our purpose and our very human nature. We're mortal. Space couldn't have killed us before. Now it does. Personally, I see humanity's future with limited spaceflight at best. Yet after Jesus returns and we get New everything, who knows? Either way, with cautious optimism, Christians can rejoice at this. It's healthy to stop navel-gazing and look upward and onward. And someday, yes, missionaries may come to the Moon and Mars. Com station Top question for listeners What big spaceflight news, past or future, is your favorite? Will you watch the Artemis II launch, currently set for early March? Jeremiah Friedli remarked about episode 298: Excellent podcast episode, Stephen! Thanks for tackling these issues from a sound and biblical perspective. I'm looking forward to part 2!

Whether you've just found the podcast or have been listening since January 2020, we're grateful for your support of this journey to escape bad books and find the best Christian-made fantasy for Christ's glory. Let's continue to seek and find His fantastical truth!

Steve interviews showrunners Jonathan English and John Glenn, all about their gritty new "Robin Hood" series.

Among the many Christmas epistles received during the Christmas season was a letter from a dear old friend in Ohio. Olga has been a real inspiration to me. For many years, she has been a lifelong learner and a pioneer in the work of missions and ministry. Her letter arrived on the 12th day of December, as she had a busy Christmas season. She was born on December 24 and last year, celebrated her 100th birthday on Christmas Eve. I am really looking forward to her next letter filled with her many exciting experiences. She is living every minute of the rest of her life and enjoying the learning process. Whatever our calling in life may be, we can never stop learning. I need to keep on learning if I want to keep up with life and all its changes. We remember John Glenn's recent trip into space at 77 years of age. It reminds us that in today's world, many senior citizens are fulfilling dreams that were forgotten. Perhaps they had to put their dreams on hold because of circumstances in their lives. We may not be able to orbit hundreds of miles or above the earth like John Glenn did this past year. However, with determination and a lot of creativity, we can be a vital part of our community at any age. I was recently informed that people who are involved in volunteer services live longer and have rich and productive lives. Tom Brokaw, NBC anchor, has recently written the book entitled "The Greatest Generation." If you were born in the second half of this century, you owe your freedom, your prosperity, and perhaps your life, to the selfless teens and 20 somethings who fought in World War II. Their courage followed by their sense of vision in the post war years changed the world. He calls this generation "the greatest generation" that ever lived. They are the generation that survived the misery of the depression to gear up to fight in World War Two. Adversity led to their great maturity. They were 21 years old and faced life with many challenges. Now, many are senior citizens and dying at the rate of 100 a day. We need to listen to them. They were the heroes of World War II. They are an inspiration to us and have so much to share with us. Brokaw and his new book The Greatest Generation, argues that these men and women overshadow even the founding fathers in Abraham Lincoln's generation. He states, they stepped up and saved the world. Younger people will be astonished. They'll look at their grandparents in a different way. A New Year Thought: The author of this quote is unknown. It was quoted by England's King George the fifth when he gave the New Year's greeting to the world, he stated, "Give me a light that I may tread safely into the unknown." And he replied, "Go out into the darkness and put your hand into the hand of God that shall be to you better than a light and safer than a known way." Live every moment of the rest of your life!

Min 4: EL CABALLERO DE LOS SIERE REINOS. (HBO MAX) 3,5 estrellas El caballero de los Siete Reinos es el regreso más desengrasante, luminoso y humanista al universo de Juego de tronos. Una precuela esperadísima ambientada un siglo antes de los acontecimientos de la serie madre que adapta los relatos de George R. R. Martin y que apuesta por el relato de aventuras clásico, la épica cotidiana y la camaradería frente a la grandilocuencia del poder. Desarrollada por Ira Parker y Ryan Condal, la serie sigue el viaje errante de Ser Duncan el Alto —interpretado con nobleza física y melancólica por Peter Claffey— y su joven escudero Egg (Dexter Sol Ansell), futuro Aegon V Targaryen, en un Poniente todavía marcado por las secuelas de la rebelión Blackfyre. Min 21: EL ROBO (PRIME VIDEO) 3 estrellas Thriller británico recién estrenado en Prime Video que toma la fórmula del atraco clásico y la reconfigura en clave contemporánea, poniendo a prueba la moral y las lealtades de una sociedad que parece presa de sus propios anhelos económicos. Creada por Sotiris Nikias y dirigida por Hettie Macdonald y Sam Miller, la producción sigue a Zara (Sophie Turner), una oficinista de una firma financiera atrapada en el atraco de miles de millones de libras de los fondos de pensiones de trabajadores corrientes, un golpe que no solo desata la violencia física del asalto sino toda una red de dilemas éticos, investigaciones policiales y juegos de poder que trascienden la mera logística del robo. A lo largo de sus seis episodios, la serie equilibra la tensión del suspense —marcada por la intriga de quién está detrás del plan y por qué— con el drama humano de sus protagonistas, mientras el inspector jefe Rhys (Jacob Fortune-Lloyd) intenta desentrañar una trama cuyos hilos conectan con intereses del MI5 y con motivaciones personales que complican tanto la persecución como la empatía; aunque algunos críticos señalan que su ritmo puede tropezar entre la acumulación de giros y la exploración superficial de personajes, El robo logra mantener un pulso narrativo que invita a reflexionar sobre cómo la codicia, la vulnerabilidad social y la ambición individual se entrelazan en una era donde el dinero y la justicia parecen más frágiles que nunca. Min 28: THE BEAUTY (DISNEY PLUS) 4 estrellas The Beauty es la última y de nuevo trasgresora apuesta de Ryan Murphy y Matthew Hodgson. Plantada como una evidente heredera de la película "La sustancia", extiende la sensación de fábula satírica y grotesca la obsesión contemporánea por la perfección física, colocando a la estética como virus literal cuando un misterioso patógeno de transmisión sexual convierte a sus víctimas en seres físicamente perfectos antes de desencadenar consecuencias horrendas y letales; protagonizada por Evan Peters (Cooper Madsen) y Rebecca Hall (Jordan Bennett) como dos agentes del FBI que siguen un rastro de muertes inexplicables en el mundo de la moda que los lleva desde París hasta Venecia, Roma y Nueva York, mientras se enfrentan a Byron Forst (Ashton Kutcher), un magnate tecnológico dispuesto a todo para proteger su droga milagrosa (“The Beauty”) y su imperio, y a El Asesino (Anthony Ramos), su letal ejecutor, en una narración que mezcla investigación, conspiración y horror corporal con dosis variables de humor negro. Min 38: BSO "ROBIN HOOD" (PRIME VIDEO) 5 estrellas La banda sonora de Robin Hood —la serie de aventuras históricas creada por Jonathan English y John Glenn y protagonizada por Jack Patten como Rob/Robin Hood y Lauren McQueen como Marian— es un ejercicio de épica moderna y tradición sinfónica que firma con personalidad Federico Jusid, compositor argentino-español con una trayectoria sólida en cine y televisión, capaz de transitar desde el drama íntimo hasta la grandiosidad orquestal con facilidad; estrenado como álbum oficial el 7 de noviembre de 2025 bajo Lakeshore Records y disponible con 26 pistas que recorren los hitos narrativos de la serie, el score de Jusid equilibra motivos heroicos, coros y texturas instrumentales que evocan tanto la vastedad de los bosques de Sherwood como la tensión de la lucha contra la corrupción normanda, sirviendo de columna sonora para una historia clásica de justicia y fraternidad que se reinterpreta para el público contemporáneo.

In today's episode, Paul Golden sits down with retired NASA astronaut Barry "Butch" Wilmore to explore a journey that spans from the grit of Tennessee Tech football to the silent expanse of the International Space Station. Butch shares the incredible story of how a routine eight-day mission evolved into a nine-month test of endurance following a mechanical failure—a situation that eventually involved Elon Musk and SpaceX. It is a powerful testament to how discipline and a deep-seated trust in God can sustain a leader through the most unpredictable "orbital" shifts.

On today's Daily Puck Drop, Jason “Puck” Puckett and Jim Moore, the Go-2-Guy, spend the majority of the show discussing Jimmy Rogers bolting for Iowa State and what's next for Washington State.  Jim is all on board with Rick Neuheisel, but Puck doesn't see it or want it.  Puck believes they should go all in on Brent Vigen, the Montana State head coach.  What about Luke Falk? Both Puck and Jim agree that would be a stretch. Whoever they hire they just want someone who loves Pullman and Washington State. They briefly touch in on the Harry Ford trade and wonder why he didn't return more and it spoke volumes how the rest of the league views him.  And, did Pete Carroll just sound the alarms on betting in the NFL on he coached in their loss to the Broncos on Sunday by kicking a last second field goal to cover the spread?Puck talks Seahawks, “The Dugar Report” with Michael-Shawn Dugar, The Athletic.  It's another dominating Seahawks defensive performance.  Sam Darnold started shaky but was sensational in the second half and it was finally the breakout game for Rashid Shaheed.  “On This Day…”   George Washington, Pearl Harbor, John Glenn and Jeff George are all in the news. Puck wraps up with, “Hey, what the Puck!?”   Commitment and loyalty is over in college athletics.  (1:00) Puck and Jim (1:17:18) Michael-Shawn Dugar, The Athletic  (1:44:24) “On this Day…”  (1:46:50) “Hey, What the Puck!?”
