This episode explores how a return to Japan in 2026, three decades after a formative 1996 trip, reshaped a Milwaukee journalist's understanding of memory, place, and the slow arrival of perspective. As detailed in the article "A look at my journey across Japan 30 years ago and how it paved the way to Taiwan in 2026," this episode traces a linear crossing from Tokyo to Nagasaki, with stops in Nagoya, Okazaki, Himeji, Hiroshima, Shimonoseki, and a small town near Saga where a reunion with a long-lost host family became the emotional center of the trip.

Over ten years on active duty, he served aboard three different classes of ships, deploying twice to the Persian Gulf and once to Southeast Asia.

The Navy recalled him to active duty in 2018, where he served as a Strategic Planner in the Iran Branch at U.S. Central Command. Today, he continues to serve as a Commander and Staff Officer at Carrier Strike Group Four.Outside of uniform, Brian is deeply committed to family, community, and service. He spends his free time with his wife, three sons, and two golden retriever rescues, and serves on the boards of the Auburn University Alumni Association, the Villanova University Alumni Association, and the LPL Financial Government Relations Advisory Council.Join Bryan and Marie for a thoughtful, wide‑ranging conversation about leadership, service, transition, teaching, financial ethics, and the evolving mission of today's Navy.

Fluent Fiction - Danish: Spring Awakenings: Love's Journey Across Oceans Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/da/episode/2026-03-16-07-38-19-da Story Transcript:Da: København vågnede langsomt til den tidlige forårsmorgen.En: København awoke slowly to the early spring morning.Da: Solstrålerne gled gennem de spredte skyer og kastede et blødt lys over byens gamle bygninger.En: Sunrays slid through the scattered clouds and cast a soft light over the city's old buildings.Da: På gaderne cyklede folk i et virvar for at komme på arbejde, mens andre slentrede gennem parken med kaffe i hånden.En: On the streets, people cycled in a tangle to get to work, while others strolled through the park with coffee in hand.Da: Der var en særlig energi i luften, en optimisme om de kommende varmere dage.En: There was a special energy in the air, an optimism about the warmer days ahead.Da: Emil stod ved vinduet og så ud over byen.En: Emil stood by the window and looked out over the city.Da: "Endelig er tiden inde," tænkte han.En: "Finally the time has come," he thought.Da: Efter måneder med videoopkald og beskeder, skulle han endelig se Astrid igen.En: After months of video calls and messages, he would finally see Astrid again.Da: Hun var rejst til New York for et job, og selvom teknologien gjorde afstandene kortere, savnede Emil hendes nærvær.En: She had traveled to New York for a job, and although technology shortened distances, Emil missed her presence.Da: Planen var klar: han skulle flyve til New York og overraske Astrid på deres særlige sted, en lille hyggelig café, hvor de ofte tilbragte tid sammen.En: The plan was clear: he was to fly to New York and surprise Astrid at their special place, a little cozy café where they often spent time together.Da: Men morgenen bragte nyt om en forsinkelse.En: But the morning brought news of a delay.Da: Emil kiggede forundret på sin telefon – hans fly var blevet forsinket.En: Emil looked bewildered at his phone – his flight had been delayed.Da: Øjeblikkelig panik greb ham, hans hjerte slog hurtigere.En: Immediate panic seized him, his heart beat faster.Da: "Hvad nu?"En: "What now?"Da: mumlede han for sig selv.En: he mumbled to himself.Da: Planen, som han havde tænkt så meget over, kunne falde sammen.En: The plan, which he had thought so much about, could fall apart.Da: Med en stille beslutning tog Emil en dyb indånding.En: With a quiet decision, Emil took a deep breath.Da: "Det vigtigste er at være sammen," mindede han sig selv om.En: "The most important thing is to be together," he reminded himself.Da: Han sendte en besked til Lukas, deres fælles ven, og forklarede situationen.En: He sent a message to Lukas, their mutual friend, and explained the situation.Da: Lukas var hurtig til at trøste ham.En: Lukas was quick to comfort him.Da: "Bare kom så hurtigt du kan, Emil.En: "Just come as quickly as you can, Emil.Da: Astrid vil forstå," skrev han tilbage med et smil.En: Astrid will understand," he wrote back with a smile.Da: Da tiden endelig nærmede sig, sad Emil i et fly med hjertet fuld af længsel og en lille gave i tasken.En: As the time finally approached, Emil sat on a plane with his heart full of longing and a small gift in his bag.Da: Det var en simpel charm, der bar symbolikken fra deres tid sammen i København – en reminder om de mange spadsereture langs søerne og de lange aftener på sofaen med kaffe og snak.En: It was a simple charm that bore the symbolism from their time together in København – a reminder of the many walks along the lakes and the long evenings on the sofa with coffee and talk.Da: Flyet landede, solen stod lavt i horisonten, og Emil ilede gennem New York Lufthavn.En: The plane landed, the sun hung low on the horizon, and Emil rushed through New York Airport.Da: Da han nåede frem til deres aftalte mødeplads, følte han sig træt men håbefuld.En: When he reached their agreed meeting place, he felt tired but hopeful.Da: Mens han gik gennem døren, skiftedes hans nervøsitet til glæde.En: As he walked through the door, his nervousness turned to joy.Da: Og der, midt i folkemængden, stod Astrid.En: And there, in the middle of the crowd, stood Astrid.Da: Hun smilede stort, som om hun vidste, at han ville være forsinket.En: She smiled broadly, as if she knew he would be delayed.Da: Astrids syn gjorde alle udfordringerne værd.En: Seeing Astrid made all the challenges worthwhile.Da: De løb hinanden i møde, og deres omfavnelse var som om tiden selv havde stået stille.En: They ran toward each other, and their embrace felt as if time itself had stood still.Da: "Jeg vidste, du ville komme," sagde Astrid med tårer i øjnene.En: "I knew you would come," said Astrid with tears in her eyes.Da: Emil grinede let, lettet og glad.En: Emil laughed softly, relieved and happy.Da: Han rakte hende charmen.En: He handed her the charm.Da: "Til os," sagde han, "som en påmindelse om vores kærlighed."En: "To us," he said, "as a reminder of our love."Da: Astrid tog charmen, holdt den tæt, og så ind i hans øjne.En: Astrid took the charm, held it close, and looked into his eyes.Da: De havde klaret det.En: They had made it.Da: Distance og tid havde ikke formindsket deres bånd, men kun gjort det stærkere.En: Distance and time had not diminished their bond but only made it stronger.Da: Emil lærte noget dyrebart: i kærlighed er det ikke planerne, men de spontane øjeblikke, der tæller mest.En: Emil learned something precious: in love, it's not the plans but the spontaneous moments that matter most.Da: De gik ud, hånd i hånd, gennem byen der aldrig sover, og nød deres tid sammen, taknemmelige for øjeblikket og hinanden.En: They walked out, hand in hand, through the city that never sleeps, and enjoyed their time together, grateful for the moment and each other.Da: I den friske forårsluft, blandt liv og latter, blev deres kærlighed fejet tilbage til livet.En: In the fresh spring air, among life and laughter, their love was swept back to life.

"She had a marvelous time ruining everything" This week, we're doing a Show and Tell episode on one of literature's most enduring narrative structures: the Hero's Journey. We explore three songs through the Hero's Journey lens: Maansi unpacks the cross-generational dual hero's story in "The Last Great American Dynasty" (Folklore, 2020), Jenn applies the framework to "Down Bad" (The Tortured Poets Department, 2024),and Jodi walks us through how "The Life of a Showgirl" (The Life of a Showgirl, 2025) follows every classic beat, from the call to adventure to the triumphant (and pithy) return. Plus: the Hunger Games, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Hindu goddess Kali, The Traitors, and why Jodi thinks the bridge of "The Life of a Showgirl" might be Taylor's greatest bridge of all time.   Subscribe for free to get episode updates or upgrade to paid to get our After School premium content: aptaylorswift.substack.com/subscribe After School subscribers get monthly bonus episodes, exclusive content, and early access to help shape future topics!   aptaylorswift.com   Mentioned in This Episode: The Hero with a Thousand Faces, Joseph Campbell The Hunger Games trilogy, Suzanne Collins The Lord of the Rings / The Hobbit, J.R.R.

On this episode of the HappyCast, we go in-depth with local Houstonian Katy Barber who just tackled the Padre Island National Seashore (PINS) FKT. Located in Texas, and definitely NOT Galveston, this is the 4th longest beach in the WORLD and one of the most isolated places in the country, all tucked away on the largest unprotected barrier island in the world. This is a 65+ mile FKT that traverses the entire length of the beach, and no woman has ever attempted this feat before, and only two men have completed it. We do a deep dive with Katy and her coach and fellow guest, Chad Lasater (who will one day have his own episode as he is a treasure trove of accomplishments). We talk about the logistics, the difficulty of running on a beach, and the dynamics with crewing and dealing with the remote nature of the race. Further yet, this was double the distance Katy has previously ran, so we talk about establishing distance PR's in the process. We also share a few crew stories, as both Chad and Andrew were present for the FKT. Katy's crew also consisted of Kevin Christensen, Regina Massingill, Jaimie (kind of like Cher or Bono), Laura Lundell, and John Kilburn. Join us as we tackle one of the more primitive, remote, and unconventional recaps yet - 65+ miles on nothing but sand! And congratulations on setting the FKT, Katy! It was one hell of a (sandy) adventure. Be sure to subscribe to the podcast wherever you listen, and we always appreciate you leaving a good rate and review.

In 2016, Ludovic Orlando, a genetics researcher, embarked on the Pegasus Project, an ambitious endeavor to use genetics to discover the origin of the modern horse.

In this episode, adventurer and leadership expert Debra Searle takes us inside her extraordinary journey of rowing solo across the Atlantic Ocean — a challenge that tested her endurance, mindset, and decision-making in ways few people ever experience. Debra reveals how those months at sea reshaped her understanding of resilience, leadership, and human potential, and how the strategies she relied on in the middle of the ocean can be applied just as powerfully in boardrooms and everyday life. She breaks down practical, science-backed techniques for staying motivated and productive, even when circumstances feel overwhelming — from habit stacking and using external cues to the power of simple, consistent positive feedback. Debra explains how leaders can use these tools to create energized teams, improve wellbeing, and build environments where people perform at their best. We also dive into her approaches to decision-making under pressure, navigating periods of isolation, and translating ocean-tested mental habits into effective, results-driven business practices. If you're looking for actionable leadership insights, mindset shifts, and stories that prove what's possible when we push our limits, this is an episode you won't want to miss.

"I liked the tonal qualities of this recording. There is a constantly varying pattern of sound: the cars, trucks and buses never pass over in the same configuration so the tones will always combine differently. Each time I improvised this musical re-creation was also unique. The different patterns of sound could have gone on for eternity, but here I have just reimagined it twice." Hawthorne bridge, Portland reimagined by Philip Gibbs. 

主播：Sofia（中国）+ Maelle（法国） 音乐：Thinking About You01. A Farewell to a Physics Legend 一位物理巨匠的谢幕2025年10月18日，BBC（英国广播公司）报道了物理学家杨振宁逝世的消息：Chinese Nobel laureate and physicist Chen Ning Yang dies aged 103中国诺贝尔奖得主、物理学家杨振宁去世，享年103岁Laureate /ˈlɔ:riət/ n. 荣誉获得者，获奖者Physicist /ˈfɪzɪsɪst/ n. 物理学家That report marks the passing of a true titan (巨匠). 在物理学界，杨振宁教授是一个iconic figure。Iconic /aɪˈkɑ:nɪk/ adj. 标志性的、象征性的It means someone or something that is very famous and admired (令人钦佩的), representing a particular idea or era (时代). 他被广泛认为是可以和爱因斯坦和牛顿比肩的物理学家。“比肩”这个词可以有两种表达方式：1) In the same breath：两件事情一起说，一起做；在这里意思是“可以与……比肩”。Eg. He was often mentioned in the same breath as Newton and Einstein (牛顿和爱因斯坦). 2) The same caliber as...：与……齐名Eg. He is widely regarded as a physicist of the same caliber as Einstein and Newton.02. The Making of A Child Prodigy 天才少年的诞生让我们一起来了解一下，这位伟大科学家不平凡的一生里有哪些传奇色彩？我们都知道，杨振宁教授是一位杰出的物理学家（a distinguished physicist）。He demonstrated (展示) extraordinary talent (非凡的天赋) from a very young age.Distinguished /dɪˈstɪŋɡwɪʃt/ adj. 卓越的，杰出的它比excellent更正式庄重一些。��What kind of extraordinary signs did he demonstrate as a child?有一个流传很广的故事：杨振宁先生大概四岁的时候，他母亲开始教他认字，在短短一年多的时间里，他竟然就认识了三千多个汉字（three thousand Chinese characters）！更神奇的是他数学方面的天赋。他父亲的一位朋友，听说他是神童，就故意出了一道数学题想考考他。He solved it in what seemed like no time (一眨眼的功夫). 在场的大人们都惊呆了。It sounds like he was a true “child prodigy (天赋异禀的神童)”. Prodigy /ˈprɑdədʒi/ n. 天才“Child prodigy”就是指神童。后来在16岁——大多数孩子还在读高中的年纪，他直接考入了顶尖的National Southwestern Associated University（西南联合大学）。这也为他成为一代科学巨匠，埋下了最初的种子。中国当时正深处抗战和内战的动荡之中。It has been a time of great uncertainty (充满不确定性) during that period in China. 这对于一位有志于攀登科学巅峰的年轻人来说，前方的道路也充满了不确定性（uncertainty）。03. Journey Across the Ocean 赴美求学的黄金时代Where could a young scholar (年轻学者) find the environment to pursue pure science (追寻纯粹的科学研究)? 其实答案就在大洋彼岸——America。二战后的美国，不仅远离战火，而且政府和大学更是投入了空前的资源用于基础科学研究。那里汇聚了全球顶尖的头脑，拥有当时最先进的实验室和理论平台。That's why he went to the United States for his studies. For a talent like Chen Ning Yang, it was a golden opportunity (黄金机会) to pursue his scientific dreams.于是，就像当时许多有抱负的中国学者一样，杨振宁把握住了机会，踏上了赴美留学的旅程。He entered the top University of Chicago (芝加哥大学) to realize his scientific dream.Enrico Fermi (费米), the Nobel laureate (诺贝尔奖得主) who created the first nuclear reactor (核反应堆)，正是杨振宁在芝加哥的博士导师。他也被业界称为“原子弹之父”。而这也体现了美国当时无与伦比的（unparalleled）科研环境。It was like stepping into a whole new world of scientific possibilities. ��How did Chen Ning Yang's career progress (事业发展) in the United States?杨振宁的事业发展可以说是非常顺利。在费米以及后来另一位关键导师Edward Teller（泰勒）的亲自指导下，杨振宁打下了坚实的基础。Yang's move to the United States for education was clearly the correct path.而这也最终成功地吸引了另一位原子弹之父——奥本海默（Oppenheimer）的注意，并引领他进入了普林斯顿（Princeton）这座学术圣殿的大门。Oppenheimer (奥本海默) was so impressed by Yang's talent that he personally invited him to join Princeton (普林斯顿大学) in 1949. 对于任何物理学家来说，这都是一个“dreamy position（梦寐以求的职位）”。04. From Einstein to Eternity 与爱因斯坦的“跨时代对话”说到他在普林斯顿的时光，这里还有一个科学史上广为流传的佳话（a remarkable story）。当时年轻的杨振宁，竟然与科学巨匠爱因斯坦（Albert Einstein）有过直接的学术交流！It must have been such a “surreal” moment (难以置信的时刻) for a young physicist.Surreal /səˈriəl/ adj. 超现实的，难以置信的这个词用来形容当时杨振宁见到爱因斯坦的场景再合适不过了。他们的见面不是一次简单的问好（a quick hello），而是一次实质性的学术讨论。当时杨振宁和他的合作者正在研究“统计力学”，爱因斯坦对此很感兴趣，所以邀请他们到他的办公室深入交谈。What a historic dialogue (跨越时代的对话)! But even geniuses get nervous! 杨振宁后来坦诚地说，他当时非常紧张，而且爱因斯坦的德语口音很重，他其实没能完全听懂所有的讨论。彼时，年轻的杨振宁正站在那位定义了现代物理学（defined modern physics）的巨人的肩膀上（on the shoulders of the very giant），与之对话（engaged in a dialogue）。It's like a “passing of the torch (火炬的传递)”.这次对话更象征着理论物理学伟大思想的传承。而这位曾经与爱因斯坦对话的年轻人，最终也成为了书写历史的人（a figure who shaped history）。杨振宁的个人生活也伴随着他的学术生涯蒸蒸日上（academic growth）而开花结果（blossom）。他在普林斯顿与杜致礼女士重逢并步入婚姻。这位国民党著名将领杜聿明的长女，成为了他此后长达53年的人生伴侣。05. Revolutionary Contributions to Physics 颠覆物理界的科学贡献Chen Ning Yang was a theoretical physicist (理论物理学家). Why is he considered so great? Theoretical /ˌθiəˈretɪk(ə)l/ adj. 理论上的杨振宁在科学领域的伟大贡献之一就是“宇称不守恒定律”（Parity Nonconservation）。这个发现有多么颠覆呢？它直接引发了物理学界最根本的思维方式的改变，而这一理论也让他与李政道一起获得了诺贝尔奖（the Nobel Prize）。物理学界（physics community）普遍认为，杨振宁还有一个更伟大的贡献（greater contribution），叫做“杨-米尔斯理论”（Yang-Mills theory）。这也被认为是杨老最杰出的代表作。这也就是为什么国际物理学界有一个广泛的社会共识：那就是杨振宁是继牛顿和爱因斯坦之后（alongside Newton and Einstein），最伟大的物理学家之一。06. Rooting and Rebooting 归根与重启His personal journey later in life also captured the world's attention (吸引了全世界的注意). He chose to return to China in his old age. 他全职回到清华大学担任教授，这样一个决定也体现了我们中文里说的“落叶归根（leaf returning to the root）”。But it was more like rooting and rebooting (归根与重启). 他把他一生的智慧、经验和国际资源，都带回了祖国，为中国的科学事业“站台”和“引航”。所以杨老的回国绝非一次象征性的叶落归根（symbolic homecoming）。It was an active, purposeful decision to contribute (饱含深意的、为了奉献的主动抉择). 在某种意义上，他这是在solving his final equation（解答他人生中最后的方程式）——一道关乎祖国未来的方程式。BBC的公告宣告了一个时代的帷幕缓缓落下。但对华夏而言，他所留下的伟大传承，正悄然开启新的篇章。The BBC announcement marked the end of an era. But for China, his legacy is just the beginning. 杨振宁先生给我们留下了科学的瑰宝，更留下了关于家与国、个人与时代的最深沉的思考。

Every Saturday, we revisit a story from the archives. This originally aired on May 20, 2024. None of the dates, titles, or other references from that time have been changed. The Darien Gap is a dangerous stretch of jungle on a strip of land that connects North and South America. In recent years, stricter Central American border policies have driven hundreds of thousands of people to make this treacherous trek. The number of children among them has skyrocketed.
