With our full, regular September episode just around the corner, I wanted to sneak one extra One Shot Episode in while my buddy and all around "RPG Idea Wizard," Jonathan Sullivan still has his Kickstarter going.  However, we actually spend the majority of this episode talking about his early gaming experiences and what it takes to make an 3PP adventure worthy of the Dungeon Crawl Classics label. But we do get around to talking about his new adventure, "A Fairly Odd Tale" occasionally and I think you're going to love it! Check it out here... At the end I also mention, friend of the show, Levi Combs's new best of the RPG best extravaganza: "The Closet of the Eye Wizard" with only about 3 days left for backing (Closet of the Eye Wizard).  My project called "Cover Stories" (3 gm screen-shaped short form adventures) is also out there too. Remember that our next regular episode will be coming up and you can get in as a "play at home winner" for the Geek Credit section simply by writing into thisoldungeon@gmail.com or sending us a message on our facebook page (TOD Facebook Page) tell us a gaming story, ask us a question, explain to us why we're wrong or give us a product review idea (remember we want OLD adventures -let's say earlier than 2010).  Cheers!

Dr. Sullivan (AKA Sully) was an emergency room physician for 25 years. During his time in the ER he noticed a trend of conditions people presented with. Blood pressure, bad cholesterol, type two diabetes, and obesity were among the most common symptoms he would see on a day to day basis. He refers to this syndrome of syndromes as the sick aging phenotype. This syndrome runs rampant in our society today. Having dealt with the same reoccurring issues year after year with a lot of repeat patients, Dr. Sullivan found barbell training and saw the value in its ability to arrest or even reverse the sick aging phenotype. Since retiring from medicine in 2017 Sully now runs his new practice, Grey Steel Strength And Conditioning, full time in Farminton MI. He is the co-author of The Barbell Prescription with Andy Baker and the author of several dozen papers, abstracts, research articles, and book chapters mostly on the topic of neurological emergencies. Sully and I discuss the life changing benefits of strength training (particularly with barbells), what specific movement patterns should be emphasized, and why strength should be prioritized for more quality years of life.

Dr. Jonathan Sullivan joins Matt & Scott to discuss what we know about how strength training benefits the joins and how it affects joint health. You can find Sully's YouTube channel here and his Greysteel's website here.  Running actually puts more force on the knee joint than squatting below depth, so the idea that squatting below depth is bad for children (whereas people have no opposition to a child running) does not make sense.  He also discusses the idea of arthritis as a “wear & tear” disease not only being wrong but this concept leading to bad, counterproductive, unhealthy recommendations from much of the medical community.  They also discuss different types of joint replacements.  It is always a good time when Sully joins the podcast!

Dr. Jonathan Sullivan joins Matt and Scott to discuss the merits and drawbacks of including the power clean in someone's program. Who should perform it, and how do we evaluate if someone should or should not perform the power clean? Sully has 3 criteria for assessing whether someone should perform the power clean: Want to do it Aptitude to do it Tolerate it For those who meet the above criteria, it can be beneficial.  Sully believes the power clean develops and trains power. It is an accessory pulling exercise. It also introduces the lifter to Olympic weightlifting, a whole other arena in the strength and barbell world that that lifter might be interested in.  The power clean also helps the lifter learn how to commit to a movement pattern. You can't hesitate with the clean. This carries over to other lifts, like the squat, in committing to the execution of the lift.  Matt, Scott, and Sully agree that to be a good, well-rounded barbell coach a coach should be able to coach the power clean and power snatch.  One thing they also agree on is that the power clean is not appropriate for a novice's linear progression program.  Lastly, there are the limitations and realities of the coaching session. In a 2-hour out-of-town session, there's not enough time to coach the power clean and the other 4 lifts. Because of this, the power clean is best for clients who you see multiple times a week in-person (though it can be coached online, especially with some in-person additional coaching and the client being able to commit to filming and looking at his own lifts).  GET STARTED with one-on-one online coaching FOR FREE!

In the first segment of this episode, Accenture's Jonathan Sullivan argues that domestic business travel is coming back around the world, particularly as companies ramp up their sales pipelines. One complicating factor, though, is that it's hard to have face-to-face meetings when most employees still are remote. In the second segment, Edward "Ned" Russell and Madhu Unnikrishnan talk about domestic summer demand and why Americans are falling back in love with their national parks.   Stay up to date on the business of aviation at Airline Weekly.

Sullivan presented himself to Cooper, The Washington Post, Chris Hayes, Katie and more as a "Civil Rights Activist," Black Lives Matter supporter, who was documenting the riot and trying to diffuse the situation. In fact, Katie was introduced to Sullivan by another guest on the show, filmmaker Dan Cohen, who arrived at the Capitol right after the shooting. During the show, Katie realized Sullivan wasn't exactly what he presented himself as to Cohen and others. One of the people she shared her concerns with was journalist and frequent guest Max Blumenthal (https://twitter.com/MaxBlumenthal), who was also covering the Capitol breach. Katie and Max reviewed the footage that Sullivan released later and discovered it contradicted what he said to Katie on the show. Max then took a deep dive into the bizarre story of John Sullivan, aka JaydenX, aka Activist John, interviewing not only John, but his brother, the woman making a documentary about them and actual Black Lives Matters activists who have tried to warn people that Sullivan is an instigator who puts the movement and people's lives at risk.

Guest hosts:  Jonathan Sullivan and Noah Hayden with Ann Buszard Dr. Sullivan, Noah, and Ann discuss the most-undervalued step of the stress-recovery-adapation process:  recovery.  The further examine sleep, the often underexamined contributor to recovery.  They discuss recommended sleep hygiene habits to get asleep quickly, stay asleep, and get quality sleep.  They also examine nutrition, with a focus on practicality and common sense.   BLOC sales and special offers: https://barbell-logic.com/offers/ Connect with the hosts Matt on Instagram Niki on Instagram podcast@barbell-logic.com   Connect with the show Barbell Logic on Instagram The Website Barbell Logic on Facebook

Guest hosts:  Jonathan Sullivan and Noah Hayden with Jaime Collins You’re an athlete.  You’re not a victim.  You’re not a patient.  You’re training.  You’re changing your habits, you’re owning your health and fitness, you’re putting in work and getting better.  You know why you’re training.  You’re an athlete, and you have an athlete’s mindset and approach.   Beyond the athletic mindset, there is a confidence that comes from lifting rituals:  number of breaths, which leg you step forward with, unracking and racking the bar.  Take decision-making and your brain out of it--beyond the one cue you keep in mind to help make the lift.   BLOC sales and special offers: https://barbell-logic.com/offers/ Connect with the hosts Matt on Instagram Niki on Instagram podcast@barbell-logic.com   Connect with the show Barbell Logic on Instagram The Website Barbell Logic on Facebook

Guest hosts:  Jonathan Sullivan and Noah Hayden with Laura Welcher Dr. Sullivan, Noah, and Laura discuss both the underlying programming principles and then some of the specifics of programming for masters athletes.  Laura discusses her programming and experience with coaching at Greysteel and through Barbell Logic.  They discuss some of the specific rep ranges and programming methods that have worked well recently, especially for intermediate and advanced athletes.  One of the most important considerations with athletes is not overstressing them--the Minimum part of MED is truly critical, as they cannot afford an injury or setback like a younger athlete.  They lift to live, not live to lift.    BLOC sales and special offers: https://barbell-logic.com/offers/ Connect with the hosts Matt on Instagram Niki on Instagram podcast@barbell-logic.com   Connect with the show Barbell Logic on Instagram The Website Barbell Logic on Facebook

Guest hosts:  Jonathan Sullivan and Noah Hayden with Debbie Wrotslavsky Dr. Sullivan, Noah, and Debbie discuss how she came to Greysteel and how it differed from her previous fitness experiences.  Her friends noticed her improved posture and she felt better throughout the day.   They discuss, first and foremost, how training females and males is mostly the same.  Certain patterns and choices seem to work better--on average--for females over males.  Females tend to respond better to triples than fives, whereas fives seem to work better for males, especially on lower body lifts.  Despite fears from some that lifting heavy weights will contribute to a bulky look, females look and feel better after some time lifting heavy weights.  Female masters, however, beyond appearance, benefit from strength training and the resultant muscle mass and stronger bones more than any other group.   BLOC sales and special offers: https://barbell-logic.com/offers/ Connect with the hosts Matt on Instagram Niki on Instagram podcast@barbell-logic.com   Connect with the show Barbell Logic on Instagram The Website Barbell Logic on Facebook

Guest hosts:  Jonathan Sullivan and Noah Hayden with Ann Buszard Dr. Sullivan and Nurse Ann Buszard discuss their medical careers, observations of the “sick aging phenotype,” and the failures of the medical industry to confront the underlying causes of this cluster of sicknesses and symptoms.  They discuss how strength training directly addresses the causes of the sick aging phenotype.  They talk about their first-hand knowledge as first lifters then coaches of how this benefits people physically and mentally and how community helps make the experience more enjoyable and help people stick with training.  BLOC sales and special offers: https://barbell-logic.com/offers/ Connect with the hosts Matt on Instagram Niki on Instagram podcast@barbell-logic.com  Connect with the show Barbell Logic on Instagram The Website Barbell Logic on Facebook

Guest Hosts:  Jonathan Sullivan and Noah Hayden Dr. Sullivan and Noah discuss the importance and uniqueness of strength compared to other physical attributes.  They address how older clients know the importance of strength and understand it allows them to function in everyday life and combat the sick aging phenotype.   They discuss the exercise selection criteria and the exercise medicine criteria.  We choose exercises that train the most muscle mass over the longest effective range of motion with the most weight.  The medicine prescription criteria include: Safety Dosing (therapeutic window) Comprehensive (hits general fitness attributes:  strength, power, endurance, mobility, balance, body composition) Specific and effective (hits components of sick aging phenotype) Simple and efficient Barbell strength training fits both criteria.   Noah Hayden argues for some additional exercise criteria and an additional set or programming criteria, and Dr. Sullivan and Noah discuss these.   BLOC sales and special offers: https://barbell-logic.com/offers/ Connect with the hosts Matt on Instagram Niki on Instagram podcast@barbell-logic.com  Connect with the show Barbell Logic on Instagram The Website Barbell Logic on Facebook

Guest hosts:  Jonathan Sullivan and Noah Hayden with John Claassen An expectation exists in many people that as we age we lose capabilities.  This message gets promulgated by much of the medical community.  “You have a bad knee” or “you have a bad back” and you can have surgery or take medication to manage it, but that is all you can do.  John Claassen--a 93-year old athlete of aging--is an example of why this paradigm is wrong.  He shows the possibilities of life and vitality and how one can fight the sick aging phenotype.   BLOC sales and special offers: https://barbell-logic.com/offers/ Connect with the hosts Matt on Instagram Niki on Instagram podcast@barbell-logic.com   Connect with the show Barbell Logic on Instagram The Website Barbell Logic on Facebook

A new series in which I introduce some of the themes of modern China scholarship, research, and journalism, and explain these broader themes using a couple of example articles each episode.In this episode, we look at Chinese government regulation and control of entertainment and leisure using the examples of celebrity culture and prostitution. The two articles I’ve chosen to look at are from completely different sources, but are both really well researched. The first is a research report that was published in the most recent issue of the China Quarterly, which is pretty much the most outstanding China journal out there. It’s titled Truth, Good and Beauty: The Politics of Celebrity in China by Jonathan Sullivan and Séagh Kehoe. The second article was published in the latest issues of the Made in China Journal, which is an open access online quarterly journal, and is titled The Plight of Sex Workers in China: From Criminalisation and Abuse to Activism by Tiantian Zheng.(https://madeinchinajournal.com/2019/04/18/the-plight-of-sex-workers-in-china%EF%BB%BF-from-criminalisation-and-abuse-to-activism/)Both the celebrity entertainment industry and prostitution - organised or otherwise - are viewed by the government as having a huge influence on the social fabric of society. In both these cases, The Chinese government is working to mitigate the negative effects of the leisure industry on the population through official administrative channels that use a range of means that can sometimes border on coercion. These topics are linked as they both reflect the Chinese government’s moral panic and their way of thinking about and dealing with social influences that originate outside of the government or Communist Party. They both also touch on issues of activism in slightly different ways.

Jonathan Sullivan, a digital services expert at the U.S. Digital Service, said modernizing the Quality Payment Program for CMS required a change in approach.

He asked how the idea for the book came about. There are 12 different chapter authors. Scot is impressed that he's only 25 years old. Brandon said his whole 24th year of life was devoted to considering the lives of Bl. Pier Giorgio Frassati and St. Therese of Lisieux and how much they accomplished in their short lives. So he felt free to reach for this book. He's also considering how much of a revolution in communication we're having in society and he found that the Church is stuck in the middle of this huge tidal shift. He also noticed a lot of individual Catholics as well as apostolates and ministries using modern technologies very effectively and faithfully. Finally, he noticed that the majority of the Church is doing a poor job, especially compared to Protestants and other religions. We're about a half decade behind the secular world too. A lot of people are becoming interested but don't know where to start. As a 25 year old, he didn't think he could write expertly on these topics, so he set out to target a number of experts in their fields to write, including Scot Landry, who wrote on new media in the diocese. Scot said the Church is sometimes accused of being a couple years behind, and so Scot was overjoyed to see someone doing a project like this and [Our Sunday Visitor](http://www.osv.com/) to being involved. Brandon said OSV was enthusiastically supportive of the idea. The thought it would reach many people. Each of the contributors to the book have a huge social media platform that they can use to promote the book to their readers and followers. He also wanted the book to affect official Church communications structures in parishes and dioceses, and OSV is very well-connected in that realm. Brandon is a convert to Catholicism and Scot has a theory that the Holy Spirit is working to encourage converts to our faith to help lead us and contribute their passion that led them to the Church. Brandon has noticed a lot of the most passionate and excited Catholics tend to be converts because every single one of them chose it. They sought it out and wrestled with the reasons not to be Catholic and ultimately chose the Church. Brandon was born and raised Presbyterian and received all the basic instruction, but it never really hit home for him. He never really committed to him. When he went to college in 2004, on the first Sunday at University of Florida in Tallahassee, he decided to choose whatever church was closest to his dorm in order to satisfy his obligation. That one was Methodist and it changed him in a very deep way and discovered the presence of Jesus, a love of Scripture, the presence of the Holy Spirit. At the same time, his girlfriend since high school was Catholic and when they started to discuss marriage after college, they started to talk about what church they should attend. So he started to research Catholicism and discovered the campus ministry called [Brotherhood of Hope](http://www.brotherhoodofhope.org/), based in Somerville, but with a ministry at the University of Florida. He met with a brother from the order every week for a year to discuss Catholicism. He found Brother Jason was eerily like him: raised Protestant; studying science; joining the same Methodist campus ministry; and exploring Catholicism his senior year in college. He had walked the same path before him. Brandon went through RCIA and entered the Church at Easter 2008. He even had 30-40 people from the Methodist campus ministry come to the Easter vigil to celebrate his journey. He's only been Catholic for three years. Back in May 2011, he was invited as part of a group of 150 bloggers from around the world to go to a special meeting at the Vatican. He was also able to attend the beatification of Pope John Paul II. He found himself wondering how in the world he got to the point of sitting literally on the roof of the Vatican and writing this book. Jennifer Fulwiler wrote the second chapter of the book in the book on how blogging and the community of Catholic blogs led her from atheism to Catholicism. Cardinal Seán said about her: >It was especially uplifting to read Jennifer Fulwiler's account in Chapter 2 of how Catholic blogs helped lead her from atheism to the Truth of the Catholic faith through the information and friendships she found as a young mother online. Let us pray that many other "Jennifer Fulwilers" will be led to experience the saving love of Jesus Christ through the Church's embracing and living on this digital continent. * [Jen Fulwiler's blog, "Conversion Diary"](http://www.conversiondiary.com) Scot is inspired how new media allowed Jennifer to encounter a community of Catholics who she would never have encountered otherwise in her daily life. She had started a blog as an atheist challenging Christianity and people came to her blog's comment boxes and started conversations with her. Those commenters pointed her to good resources countering the arguments made by her atheist friends. Brandon said the anonymity of the Internet can be a huge boon for someone learning about the faith because they can do so with a stigma or being ostracized. People can explore Catholicism through the safety of anonymous commenting on blogs. He added that the Internet enables you to find a true representation of what a religion presents itself as. He said it's common for Protestants to build Catholic straw-men which claim Catholics believe things they don't really, such as worshipping Mary. Now it's all available online. **2nd segment:** Scot said it was common a few years ago for some people to say that new media and the Internet are a fad, but that's been proven false. Brandon said the statistics are overwhelming. [Facebook](http://www.facebook.com) has over 750 million users around the world. Pew Research Center just released a study that [Twitter](http://www.twitter.com) sees 350 billion tweets every day. (Twitter is a 140-character messaging service and a tweet is one message from a user, maybe a quote, a link to an article, a comment on a piece of news.) Brandon said Pope Benedict XVI is one of the most perceptive on new media in the Church, calling it a new digital continent. If Facebook were a country, it would be the third-largest in the world after China and India. Brandon said on [YouTube.com](http://www.youtube.com), 2 billions of videos are watched every day and every minute 24 hours of new video is uploaded. Scot said in the first chapter, Fr. Bob Barron writes that posting his videos on YouTube allow him to interact with secularists. * [Fr. Robert Barron, Word on Fire](http://wordonfire.org/) Fr. Barron has posted more than 200 videos on YouTube and received more than 1 million views. His organization has done some research and found the most likely viewer is a 20-something male who has no religious background. Fr Barron asks where else he could have an audience of such young men. Fr. Barron writes about the YouTube heresies, cataloging what he encounters in comments on his videos: A skewed understanding of who God is; a mythical being; all religions are the same; and Religion's relationships on science and on violence Fr. Barron said we need to understand the environment in which we're participating. Marcel Lejeune is one of the campus ministers at Texas A&M, one of the largest Catholic campus ministries. He writes in the third chapter about connecting to young adults. New media turns out to be the ideal way to connect with the missing demographic in the Church. * [Texas A&M Catholic campus ministry](http://aggiecatholic.org/) He also writes about their innovative method of connecting with a very transient group of people, college students, using [Flocknote](http://www.flocknote.com). * [An innovative way to register parishioners](http://marysaggies.blogspot.com/2010/09/why-we-asked-our-parishioners-to-bring.html) Flocknote allows people only to receive information that they want in the forms they want: email, Facebook, text messaging. Flocknote is a product created by another book contributor, Matthew Warner, who writes about new media in the parish. Texas A&M's Catholic campus ministry average eight students entering the priesthood and religious life as well as the thousands who return to parishes as laypeople who have strong formation. **3rd segment:**The second section of the book talks about how new media is used in formation. [Mark Shea](http://markshea.blogspot.com/) writes about the dangers and benefits of blogs. [Fr. Dwight Longenecker](http://www.dwightlongenecker.com/) writes about what's really important and the danger of online apologetics: >...I am not convinced that many souls are won by argument. It is famously said about apologetics that you can win an argument and lose a soul. The apologetics on my blog are woven into a much bigger picture of Catholicism. I want the reader to glimpse the power and the glory of the Catholic Church, but I also want them to glimpse the humanity and humor of being Catholic. In other words, I want them to glimpse the art of being Catholic — not just the argument for being Catholic. * [Jonathan Sullivan's review of the book](http://catholictechtalk.com/blog/2011/07/16/book-review-the-church-and-new-media-by-brandon-vogt/) Scot said it's true of all ministry, not just new media. Brandon would nuance it by saying that there are some people are indeed looking for arguments *for* the Catholic Church. But it is true that arguing for the sake being right never wins anyone into the loving, accepting, inclusive world of the Church. When you're vitriolic and angry, it doesn't convey the love of Christ. Fr. Longenecker writes with humor and reverence, charity and truth. Brandon said blogging is a medium made for current events and commenting on what's going on the world. He notes that blogging is egalitarian so that everyone online can have the same voice as, no matter where they are or their economic background. It allows people who to break news and for people to gather around and talk about it. What bloggers like Mark Shea and Fr. Longenecker do is bring the Church into the story, to bring the Church's teaching to bear and allow a conversation to take place. Scot writes in Chapter 7 about new media in the diocese, especially what we do in the Archdiocese of Boston. He believes that what we have in Boston is as great as anywhere. He said [CatholicTV.com](http://www.catholictv.com) is the best place anywhere to view Catholic video content. The [Pilot's website](http://www.pilotcatholicnews.com) has won awards. Our diocesan website, [BostonCatholic.org](http://www.bostoncatholic.org), is widely recognized for being a great website, especially in its faith formation content. Brandon said it's obvious to him that the Archdiocese of Boston is a model for dioceses across the world in new media, including smartphone apps and other initiatives. In the next chapter, Matt Warner shared what parishes can do in new media. He has his hands on the pulse of online Catholicism and he's very practical. He's the founder of Flocknote. He's also looked at what's working and not working in parish websites. For example, a parish looking to use these social media tools, start a blog, revamp a website and want to connect with people not attending church, this chapter provides many answers. New media builds community and these chapters, including Lisa Hendey's chapter, recognize this. Scot said Matthew encourages parishes to form a qualified digital communications council and that's also a way for young people to get involved in the parish. These are the people who know how to reach the people aren't in the parish right now. The ideal member of the council would be college graduates looking to get involved in the Church and these people would also be the future leaders of the parish. Brandon said this is his generation and he sees the problems and tensions on both sides. The young adult demographic is the most difficult to reach and yet the most engaged in new media. New media is a movement of God to give us these tools at a specific time in Church history. Both Pope John Paul II and Pope Benedict have said the same. By inviting young people to participate in the structure of the church, you're connecting them to the structure of the Church. Also, many young men and women who come to religious vocations say that their vocations began with being involved with the parish in a way like this. Brandon ends his introduction by saying the Church is not just the institutional Church, but is every Catholic. Will the Church remain silent in the digital sphere? >The world is waiting and listening in the virtual sphere. Will the Church remain silent, or will her voice be proclaimed from the rooftops (and the laptops)? Will she plunge the message of Christ into Facebook feeds, blog posts, podcasts, and text messages, or will she be digitally impotent? Brandon said new media is already being harnessed for all kinds of purposes, some of it inimical to the Church and her message. The Church needs to begin to use this tool. The printing press was used to undermine the Church because the Church did not at first see the utility of the press to spread her message. Scot mentioned Lisa Hendey's chapter on her website at [CatholicMom.com](http://www.catholicmom.com), a community of Catholic moms sharing their lives with one another. Tom Peters of [American Papist](http://catholicvote.org/discuss/index.php?show=papist), writing about how new media can encourage Catholic activism. Brandon said CatholicMom.com is a digital front porch for moms around the world to discuss what it means to be a Catholic mom today for moms who might not otherwise have a way to connect with other Catholic moms they can relate to. Many of the moms find themselves feel isolated without other Catholic moms with the same values and outlook. Tom Peters writes about how new media can be used to promote the Catholic social teaching of the Church. In his blog, he rallies his readers to take action on political or social issues in the news. They call representatives and other leaders, send letters, and make a real impact. In the final chapter, Sean Carney, founder of [40 Days for Life](http://www.40daysforlife.com/blog/), the world's largest pro-life movement, where thousands of people pray for an end to abortion. They were able to organize this movement globally using new media.
