Raphael's years in Florence (c. 1504–1508) placed him at the center of one of the most extraordinary moments in Renaissance art, where he encountered both Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo at the height of their powers. Under the Soderini Republic, Florence became a stage for artistic innovation, marked by Michelangelo's David, Leonardo's Mona Lisa, and the unrealized battle frescoes commissioned for the Palazzo Vecchio.This episode explores how Raphael absorbed and transformed the lessons of these two rival masters. From Leonardo, he adopted naturalism, portrait composition, and sfumato; from Michelangelo, monumental form, line, and color. Yet Raphael forged a distinctive style defined by harmony, clarity, and balance, culminating in works such as the Maddalena Doni portraits and the Madonna of the Goldfinch before his departure to Rome under the patronage of Pope Julius II.Watch/Support/Learn: https://linktr.ee/italian_renaissance_podcastWorks Discussed: Michelangelo, David, 1501-1504 https://www.galleriaaccademiafirenze.it/opere/david-michelangelo/Leonardo da Vinci, Mona Lisa, 1503-19 https://collections.louvre.fr/en/ark:/53355/cl010062370Leonardo da Vinci, The Battle of Anghiari, unfinished, lost. Michelangelo, The Battle of Cascina, unfinished. Raphael, Portraits of Agnolo and Maddalena Doni, 1504-07 https://www.uffizi.it/en/artworks/portraits-doni-raffaelloRaphael, Madonna of the Goldfinch, 1506 https://www.uffizi.it/en/artworks/mary-christ-and-the-young-john-the-baptist-known-as-the-madonna-of-the-goldfinchThe Florentine Renaissance CourseSupport the show

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of Gotta Be Saints, Brendan sits down with Peter Giersch to discuss one of the most important realities Christians can reflect on: eternity. Through the beauty of France, the witness of the saints, the art of Michelangelo, and the Catholic understanding of death, judgment, heaven, and hell, Peter invites listeners to rediscover what so much of the modern world has forgotten.Drawing from his book Talking of Michelangelo, Peter reflects on his experiences in Burgundy, the Catholic imagination found in medieval churches, and why generations of Christians were constantly reminded of eternity through sacred art and architecture. Together, Brendan and Peter discuss suffering, holiness in ordinary life, the vocation of marriage and singleness, the meaning of the crucifix, the Last Judgment, and why modern culture has become uncomfortable talking about heaven and hell.This conversation is thoughtful, honest, and deeply rooted in the Catholic tradition while remaining practical for everyday life. It is ultimately an invitation to reflect on where our lives are leading and to remember that holiness is possible in every vocation through love, sacrifice, patience, and fidelity to Christ.Featured BookTalking of Michelangelo: Burgundy, Eternity, and the Catholic Imagination by Peter GierschOrder the BookSponsored by TruthlyTruthly helps faithful Catholics find trustworthy answers to life's biggest questions through AI built with a Catholic worldview.Visit TruthlyStay ConnectedInstagram:@gottabesaints InstagramFacebook:Gotta Be Saints Facebook Support the show

A Qmen Perspective with Kevin and Johnny Boy The God Thing, the Blue Angel, and the Battle to Remember Who Humanity Really Is Banjo Bread, Solar Storms, and a Grand Rising Start In this episode of A Qmen Perspective, hosts Kevin and Johnny Boy open with gratitude to BBS Radio TV and a warm “Grand Rising” greeting for Asha and Q Day. They promote several related BBS Radio TV shows, including All Learning Reimagined, Whiplash Talk, Project Review with Q&A, and A St. Thomas Show. The hosts then ease into personal conversation, with Johnny Boy talking about making organic bread and Kevin sharing concerns about aches, fatigue, joint pain, and possible ascension symptoms connected to solar activity and incoming energy. When the Sun Feels Different and the Body Starts Talking Kevin and Johnny Boy discuss the possibility that people are feeling physical symptoms from solar energy, photon streams, coronal mass ejections, and ascension-related recalibration. Kevin references astrophysicist Stefan Burns as someone he follows for information about solar activity, earthquakes, volcanoes, and space weather. Johnny Boy agrees that many people seem to be experiencing similar symptoms and suggests that the sun itself feels different in color, heat, and energetic impact. They invite listeners to call in if they are experiencing similar symptoms or energetic changes. Opening the ForThePeople.Space Files The main discussion centers on articles from ForThePeople.Space, which Kevin and Johnny Boy say they have been covering regularly because they believe the site provides important information connected to Q, Asha, awakening, and disclosure. They explain that many listeners may not have time to read the articles themselves, so the hosts offer a “CliffsNotes” style discussion. The first and primary article they examine is titled “The God Thing,” categorized under aliens and the Great Awakening, and tied to a movie script by Gene Roddenberry, creator of Star Trek. Star Trek as a Hidden Memory Trigger Kevin and Johnny Boy discuss the article's claim that Star Trek was not merely entertainment, but a kind of documentary or encoded reminder meant to awaken humanity to a future without war, poverty, or disease. They describe how Gene Roddenberry's hopeful vision of humanity touched viewers because it stirred hidden truths buried deep within them. The hosts frame Star Trek as part of a larger awakening narrative, where fictional stories may carry spiritual or historical clues that help people remember who they really are. Gene Roddenberry's Shelved Script and the False God Ship The hosts summarize Roddenberry's rejected feature-film script “The God Thing.” In the script, Spock senses danger, the Enterprise is refitted above Earth, and crowds on Earth begin receiving impressions that the second coming of God is near. A massive alien ship approaches, destroys another Starfleet vessel, and sends a holographic probe aboard the Enterprise. The hologram appears as Jesus, leading Kirk to identify it as God, but the crew eventually discovers that the being is not divine. Instead, the article describes it as an alien computer-ship entity pretending to be God. Project Blue Beam Echoes and a Holographic Second Coming Kevin and Johnny Boy connect Roddenberry's script to Project Blue Beam and the idea of a staged alien invasion or false second coming. They note that the script was completed in 1975, around the same general era in which Werner von Braun is said to have warned about a fake alien threat. The hosts suggest that Roddenberry may have been foreshadowing or exposing a false religious event involving holographic deception. They emphasize that in the script, the supposed God figure is eventually revealed as Lucifer, a deceiver tied to religious manipulation across planets. Pleasure, Pain, and the Old Empire Trap The discussion turns to a graphic scene from the script involving Kirk being tested through sexual temptation and physical discomfort. Kevin and Johnny Boy interpret this as symbolic of what the article calls the Old Empire's capture systems, which lure spirits through euphoric pleasure mixed with pain. They connect this to Q-related teachings about death, the tunnel of light, memory erasure, and reincarnation traps. Kevin says this reminds him of warnings not to automatically “go into the light,” while Johnny Boy adds that such systems are presented as a way spirits are allegedly captured, erased, and recycled. The Roswell Thread and the Memory of the Spirit The hosts then move into Roswell-related material from the article, referencing the alien pilot Airl and the 1947 Roswell interview narrative. The article describes Airl as speaking about the Domain Expeditionary Force and its efforts to counter Old Empire religious systems. Kevin and Johnny Boy discuss claims that powerful beings from the “creation light ship” incarnated on Earth as teachers to help humanity regain memory and spiritual power. They mention Buddha, Lao Tzu, Jesus, and other figures as examples of beings whose teachings were allegedly distorted by Old Empire operatives. Jesus, Forgotten Power, and the Original Sin of Amnesia Kevin and Johnny Boy emphasize the article's interpretation that Jesus taught humans they could do the works he did and even greater things, suggesting equality of spiritual potential rather than permanent inferiority. They connect humanity's loss of memory and spiritual power to electrocution, DNA manipulation, and Old Empire control systems. Johnny Boy suggests that this manipulation may be the real “original sin,” while Kevin imagines a future in which medical and energetic technologies remove fear of death, restore bodies, extend life, and allow people to retain memory and identity without repeating cycles of amnesia. A Warning About Old Empire Scripts and Religious Defense The hosts discuss the article's claim that Old Empire operatives promoted the idea that Lucifer would come speaking against all religions, thereby conditioning people to defend old doctrines rather than listen to their own spirit. Kevin and Johnny Boy interpret this as a clever control mechanism meant to keep people locked into religious programming. They also discuss the idea that Project Blue Beam has already been stopped by White Hats, President Trump, and military operations that allegedly destroyed the relevant technology, preventing a false alien invasion or fake religious spectacle from being used against humanity. The Blue Angel, Moses, and a Radical Reinterpretation After a music break, the hosts return with the article's section on the Blue Angel, a Byzantine mosaic figure described in the article as the fallen angel Lucifer. They examine claims about the Church of Saint Apollonaris in Ravenna, Italy, and its mosaic of the sheep and goats, with red, purple, and blue symbolism. The article associates blue with coldness, cruelty, underworld energy, and death, while red represents warmth, light, life, and love. Kevin and Johnny Boy also discuss the article's controversial claim that Moses was connected to Lucifer or the fallen angel, citing Michelangelo's horned sculpture of Moses as part of that interpretation. Disclosure Day, Spielberg, and the Claimed Collapse of Blue Beam The hosts then cover material involving Serge Monast, Project Blue Beam, Jeff Bezos, DARPA, Epstein, Mossad, the CIA, Jesuits, Chinese Communist Party operations, Canadian bases, and alleged military actions shutting down Blue Beam infrastructure. They also discuss the article's claims about Steven Spielberg's film Disclosure Day, which the article says was originally intended to help launch Project Blue Beam but was altered after White Hat operations dismantled key parts of the plan. Kevin and Johnny Boy present the material as part of a larger disclosure narrative in which fear-based alien manipulation is being replaced by truth. Mark Twain, Being Fooled, and the Challenge of Disclosure The hosts briefly move to a second, shorter article about Mark Twain, centered on the quote, “It's easier to fool people than to convince them that they've been fooled.” Kevin and Johnny Boy connect that idea to future disclosure, the expected EBS, and the challenge of helping “normies” accept information they may have rejected when hearing it from friends or family. They suggest that when official disclosure arrives, many people may remember that they had previously been told similar things and begin to understand that they were fooled by old systems. Old Monkeys, Bad Jokes, and a Lighthearted Landing Near the end, Kevin and Johnny Boy shift into humor, trading jokes about aging, aches, natural resources, attention deficit, hearing problems, marriage, and dating. This lighthearted ending balances the heavier discussion of spiritual deception, false gods, and disclosure. They thank listeners for spending time with “a couple of old monkeys on the bar,” and remind everyone to go within the heart, stay in loving frequencies, stay calm, flow like water, remain grounded, reduce phone and computer use, and spend time in nature and the sun. Closing the Perspective With Heart and Grounding The episode closes with Kevin and Johnny Boy saying they enjoyed the discussion, even though it mostly focused on one major ForThePeople.Space article. They emphasize that the material was important and worth exploring carefully. The hosts tell listeners they will return the following Saturday, June 20, for another live show on BBS Radio TV, continuing their discussions of ForThePeople.Space articles on A Qmen Perspective. Their final message is rooted in love, grounding, inner awareness, and preparing for future disclosure.

For 40 years, sculptor M.J. Anderson has been making annual trips from her home on the Oregon coast to Carrara, Italy. She spends up to three months there, traveling along a winding road to quarries with towering walls of marble, the same kind of stone that was used to create Michelangelo’s sculpture of David and other timeless works of Renaissance art.    But Anderson isn’t interested in recreating classical, idealized representations of masculine or feminine beauty. Instead, a unifying theme of Anderson’s work is “the distillation of what it feels like to be woman.” Starting at her studio in Carrara, she uses grinders and air hammers to carve torsos evoking the female form out of massive blocks of marble, onyx and travertine. The pieces are then shipped, unfinished, to Anderson’s studio in Nehalem where she polishes them while retaining drill marks and other raw reminders of the stone’s past and its “power.” We talked with Anderson on Sep. 13, 2025 about her artistic process and the themes she explores in her work.  

On this episode of Pilot Season Cartoon Edition, hosts Kinte, Renee, Jen, John, and Allen break down the pilot episode of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1987), “Turtle Tracks,” which originally aired on December 14, 1987. In this opening episode, viewers are introduced to Leonardo, Michelangelo, Donatello, and Raphael, four pizza-loving turtles trained in ninjutsu by their wise rat sensei, Splinter. Living beneath the streets of New York City, the turtles step into action when crime reporter April O'Neil crosses paths with the mysterious Foot Clan. As danger rises, the episode sets the stage for the turtles' battle against evil and begins the legendary rivalry with Shredder. With action, humor, and unforgettable characters, “Turtle Tracks” launches one of the most iconic cartoon franchises of the 1980s.

The cartoon softened the darker tone of the original comics and turned the Turtles into a more family-friendly action-comedy series, helping make them one of the biggest cartoon franchises of the late 1980s and early 1990s. With its mix of martial arts, humor, mutant villains, and pizza-loving heroes, the show became a huge pop-culture hit and helped launch toys, movies, and more.

Most of us have been told that goals are the key to success — write them down, stay focused, never quit. But Cam isn't so sure that's the whole story. ----- I've just completed a goal setting webinar. It was thought provoking and well run. Two things stood out. First – we are halfway through 2026. The webinar host adjusted the what was supposed to be a goal setting workshop with a one-year timeline to half a year to account for the date and though I have a calendar in front of me every day, it still shocked me that this year is half gone. Though factually I know it's early June, hearing him say that the year is half over startled me. Next, I'm not sure I'm a goal setting type of guy. The speaker said that unless a goal is written down it doesn't exist. I'm not so sure that's applicable for me. There are plenty of goals that I replay in my head each day, none of which are written down. They range from trivial – I want my young and tender potted lemon tree to eventually fruit so I'm giving it lots of time and attention – to larger things – I want to celebrate my thirtieth wedding anniversary in an exotic destination somewhere very far from here. I'm not sure writing that down does anything more to cement it - it's already in my head and replaying frequently. But how about this: what happens if my goal is to be more flexible? What happens if my goal is to not get so anchored in my goals that I miss opportunities that are outside my goals? Which brings me to graduation speakers. There seems to be two types – the ones who encourage the graduates to set goals for their lives and dedicate their waking moments to achieving those goals. These speakers are often corporate types who climbed ladders and knocked down walls and stayed up late and studied hard to get where they are. The second type seem to be the ones who encourage the graduates to search for opportunity and be ready to shift and pivot as life presents new paths forward. These are usually the entrepreneurs. They've shifted and pivoted and shucked and jived all the way. They seem less wed to firm, concrete goals. What if Orville and Wilbur had only wanted to create a massive bike company and never pivoted to see if their contraption would fly. What if Christopher Columbus had intended to find India and when his ship made landfall said, "No. This is the wrong place. Let's keep looking." What if Michelangelo had seen the block of marble that became the David and said "I can't use this. It has a hole in it. Find something else." Our world would be dramatically different. So, setting goals is good and powerful stuff. But so is having the will and courage to abandon goals when it appears to be the right thing to do. And to abandon them without remorse. I find when I dig into goals too far, I can't identify when it's time to abandon them and I hold on to them to my detriment. It's happened too many times before. So, at the end of the webinar, I was left with this: to goal or not to goal. That's the question. I'm Cam Marston, just trying to Keep it Real.

Layne and Jon come to another end of an arc as Michelangelo returns forlornly to his family’s old home and tries to pick up the pieces of a former life. It’s IDW’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 55 from 2016!

Looking beyond the marble elegance of Michelangelo's David, the pugnacious, passionate, and--crucially--important story of Renaissance manhood.  Timothy McCall's book Making the Renaissance Man: Masculinity in the Courts of Renaissance Italy (Reaktion, 2023) explores the images, objects, and experiences that fashioned men and masculinity in the courts of fifteenth-century Italy. Across the peninsula, Italian princes fought each other in fierce battles and spectacular jousts, seduced mistresses, flaunted splendor in lavish rituals of knighting, and demonstrated prowess through the hunt--all ostentatious performances of masculinity and the drive to rule. Hardly frivolous pastimes, these activities were essential displays of privilege and virility; indeed, violence underlay the cultural veneer of the Italian Renaissance. Timothy McCall investigates representations and ideals of manhood in this time and provides a historically grounded and gorgeously illustrated account of how male identity and sexuality proclaimed power during a century crucial to the formation of Early Modern Europe.

Peter explains that nothing else matters but how you treat others, how well you serve the Lord's people.They then talk about the dark night of the soul and why Peter wrote his memoir about his journey with the Lord and the Catholic Church. He explains how many people bounce out of organized religion when it gets hard.Full Episodes! https://www.amazon.com/gp/video/detai...https://www.bearschoolofmanliness.com/Full Episodes! https://www.amazon.com/gp/video/detai...https://www.bearschoolofmanliness.com/SUBSCRIBE & SHARE BEAR'S VIDEOSWEBSITE DeepAdventure.ComNEWEST BOOK "12 Rules for Manliness | Where Have All the Cowboys Gone" on Amazon or Bear's Online Store https://my-site-100622-104377.square....DONATE TO THE CAUSE: https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_...

Antonio Forcellino"Roma. Il Sacco del 1527"Harper Collinswww.harpercollins.itIl 6 maggio 1527, la Roma rinascimentale, simbolo di potere e splendore, crolla sotto la furia devastante dei Lanzichenecchi. La città eterna viene saccheggiata e distrutta, segnando l'inizio della sua emarginazione politica e militare. Un evento che sconvolse l'Europa e la cui eco risuona ancora oggi, a cinquecento anni di distanza.Antonio Forcellino, il più illustre restauratore italiano e uno dei massimi esperti di arte rinascimentale, ci conduce in un viaggio straordinario tra le pieghe di questa tragedia collettiva. Partendo dal restauro di due affreschi danneggiati durante il sacco e da nuovi documenti d'archivio, Forcellino ricostruisce con rigore e passione uno dei più grandi “cold case” della storia europea.Tra intrighi, doppi giochi e cacce al bottino, emergono figure memorabili come Carlo V, Clemente VII, Francesco I, Alfonso d'Este e Isabella d'Este, protagonisti di un intreccio di odi personali e ambizioni sfrenate. Sullo sfondo, un esercito senza guida, nutrito di odio religioso e bramoso di ricchezze, travolge Roma in un crescendo di caos e violenza.Con uno stile avvincente e una narrazione che nulla ha da invidiare alle migliori serie televisive, Forcellino trasforma la storia in una saga epica, capace di illuminare non solo le responsabilità dell'élite europea dell'epoca, ma anche le conseguenze di uno degli episodi più drammatici della nostra storia.Antonio Forcellino, fra i maggiori studiosi europei di arte rinascimentale, ha realizzato restauri di opere di grande valore, come il Mosè di Michelangelo e l'Arco di Traiano. La sua attenzione si rivolge da sempre a tutta la ricchezza del fare arte, ai contesti storici, alle tecniche e ai materiali, alle radici psicologiche e biografi che dei grandi capolavori. È stato eletto membro del Comitato per le celebrazioni dei 500 anni della morte di Leonardo da Vinci, promosso dal ministero dei Beni e delle Attività Culturali e del Turismo. Per HarperCollins ha pubblicato la trilogia di romanzi Il secolo dei giganti, dedicata ai grandi protagonisti dell'arte rinascimentale: Il cavallo di bronzo: l'avventura di Leonardo, Il colosso di marmo: l'ardore di Michelangelo e Il fermaglio di perla: la grazia di Raffaello.Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarehttps://ilpostodelleparole.it/

Looking beyond the marble elegance of Michelangelo's David, the pugnacious, passionate, and--crucially--important story of Renaissance manhood.  Timothy McCall's book Making the Renaissance Man: Masculinity in the Courts of Renaissance Italy (Reaktion, 2023) explores the images, objects, and experiences that fashioned men and masculinity in the courts of fifteenth-century Italy. Across the peninsula, Italian princes fought each other in fierce battles and spectacular jousts, seduced mistresses, flaunted splendor in lavish rituals of knighting, and demonstrated prowess through the hunt--all ostentatious performances of masculinity and the drive to rule. Hardly frivolous pastimes, these activities were essential displays of privilege and virility; indeed, violence underlay the cultural veneer of the Italian Renaissance. Timothy McCall investigates representations and ideals of manhood in this time and provides a historically grounded and gorgeously illustrated account of how male identity and sexuality proclaimed power during a century crucial to the formation of Early Modern Europe.

Why is it that so many of us are loved... and yet don't actually feel loved?Dr. Sonja Lyubomirsky is a Professor of Psychology at UC Riverside and one of the world's leading researchers on happiness. Her newest book, How to Feel Loved, co-authored with relationship scientist Harry Reis, lands at a strange moment: a time when more people than ever say they are connected, and more people than ever say they don't actually feel it. In this conversation with Dr. Michael Gervais, Sonja offers a quietly radical reframe. After 36 years of studying what makes a life happy, she has come to believe the answer lies in this: Feeling loved.And here is where it gets interesting. Sonja's research is showing that feeling loved is not something we have to wait for. It's something we can help create. Most of us, when we sense the absence, default to one of two strategies. We try to be more lovable. Or we try to change the person on the other side. Sonja argues that neither one actually works. What changes a relationship is changing the conversation.She walks Mike through the five mindsets at the heart of the book: the sharing mindset, listening to learn, radical curiosity, open heart, and multiplicity. Along the way, they explore why most of us are listening to respond instead of listening to learn, the three words people actually want to hear (hint: it's not I love you), and why ‘tell me more' might be one of the most loving phrases in the English language. Sonja shares her foggy glass metaphor for why being known is the prerequisite to being loved, the Michelangelo effect, and a striking line the Dalai Lama once said to her about how we hold each other.The conversation also gets honest about the harder edges. Bridging political divides at the dinner table. Staying curious about a partner of 30 years. Navigating the modern questions around AI companions, monogamy, and what it means to really go deep with another human. And the research on what tiny acts of kindness, including the impact a 10-second compliment can have.If you've ever been surrounded by people who love you and still felt unseen, this conversation is a gentle invitation back in. The good news is that feeling loved is under your control, more than you think. Sonja's research will show you exactly where to start.Most of us are waiting to feel loved. Sonja shows us how to create the conditions for it... starting today._____________________________________________________Links & ResourcesThis episode is brought to you in part by our partner Sunlighten, the company that has pioneered infrared sauna technology.

  Last year I wrote a piece on artistic taste, which got many good responses from (eg) Ozy, Frank Lantz, and Sympathetic Opposition. I tastelessly forgot to respond to them until now, but I appreciate how they forced me to refine my thinking. In particular, they helped me realize that "taste" and "good art" are hard to talk about, because the discussions conflate many different things: 1: Sensory Delight. Ode To Joy makes the listener feel joyful. Michelangelo's David fills the viewer with awe at the human figure. The great cathedrals are impressive buildings, in a way that hits you like a punch to the gut. These judgments are preconscious, widespread, and don't necessarily require artistic sophistication. 2: Novelty and Innovation: Someone gets credit for doing art in a way that has never been done before. The early Impressionists invented a new way of looking at the world and explored all of its little corners. A modern Impressionist painter may be able to match their technical skill, but not their novelty; therefore, the modern would be a mere curiosity while the originals were great artists. For a modern person to be a great artist, they would have to explore entirely new media - hence the surprising and transgressive nature of modern art. 3: Paying Attention / Pattern Language: Tasteful people, viewing art over the generations and paying deep attention to it, have developed a sense of balance, composition, contrast, and what should and shouldn't be done. We can debate how predetermined the exact grammar of this language was a priori, but for better or worse people are sensitized to it and will judge works with it in mind. A good work of art should either conform to this language, or defy it deliberately and thoughtfully (that is, in a way that transcends it rather than ignores it). Along with these three big ones, here are smaller ones that might or might not be combinations or subvarieties of these: 4: Context And Discussion: Some great art raises questions, and subsequent great art proposes answers, or variations on the questions, or further elucidates the subject. The great artists of any given time are in conversation with their peers and the great artists of all past ages; new art can be judged on whether it shows awareness of, and contributes to, this conversation. Other forms of context are more personal - is a book about human evil more aesthetic if its author survived the Holocaust? 5: Literal Ability To Understand A Work: You can't fully appreciate Animal Farm unless you know the history of Soviet communism and recognize the book as an allegory for that history. If someone who knew nothing about this liked it as a cute story about talking animals, their appreciation would be different from (inferior to?) that of more knowledgeable people. 6: Changing Fashions: In 1940, Beaux-Arts and Frank Lloyd Wright were the heights of American architecture. By 1950, nobody who was anybody was doing Beaux-Arts or Prairie; it was all International Style. One could very charitably attribute this to the novelty-seeking drive above; but it's implausible that Prairie style architecture was novel and beloved in 1940, a few houses completely exhausted its potential, but the explosion of International Style buildings didn't restore the balance such that the low-hanging-fruit level level was lower in Prairie style again. More likely this was just a fashion effect where Prairie style was cool in 1940, then uncool in 1950. 7: Political And Ideological Point-Making: Great art may convey some truth about the world. This could be a purely aesthetic truth. But in the case of Uncle Tom's Cabin, the truth was "slavery is bad". Other truths are conveyed symbolically (for example, cathedrals being shaped like crosses) or through design choices (for example, the austerity of Bauhaus architecture making it more suitable for socialist housing). 8: Ability To Profoundly Affect Or Transform You: Maybe this one is emergent from some combination of sensory delight, novelty and point-making. But some people say they come away from art transformed, in a way which is neither just sensory delight nor just political ideology. Philosophers have argued for millennia about exactly what way this is, but hopefully we've all had this experience and can accept an extensional definition. These people enumerated these things to defend taste. I will instead take the bold stand that conflating many different things is bad: it frees people from thinking too hard about any particular one of them, or the ways they interact. Here are my arguments for deliberately ignoring about half of these. https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/contra-everyone-on-taste

"It's about family, it's about traditions, it's about a sense of place. Italy is more than just food and wine. It's a feeling, it's an experience." — J.A. Marz About This Episode J.A. Marz is a healthcare marketing strategist turned novelist whose Tuscany-set fiction has struck a chord with readers who love Italy as much as he does. His debut novella, Ciao, Amore Mio — The Tale of Gabby and Gio, follows a restless travel writer who arrives in Italy chasing stories and finds something far more personal at a family-owned agriturismo called La Terre Felice. The sequel, It's Sauce, Not Gravy!, debuted as a #1 Amazon Hot New Release in Tuscany Travel and digs deeper into memory, mystery, and what it means to fight for a place that feels like home. Mike, co-host Laura Nozicka, and John talk about the pull of Italy, career pivots from boardrooms to bookshops, the great sauce-vs-gravy debate, and why the best stories are rooted in a sense of place. Key Takeaways 1. Write what you know — and what you love. John combined his three passions — Italy, golf, and writing — into a single story. He had the first and last chapters in his head for 10 years before the middle finally came together. 2. Italy is a feeling, not just a destination. The slower pace, fresh food, family-first culture, and sense of La Dolce Vita offer something Americans rarely experience at home. John tried to put readers in that feeling, not just describe the scenery. 3. Childhood memories are creative gold. John wove real family moments — his grandfather calling him "Prince of Wales," Sunday dinners, his grandmother's cooking — into the fabric of both novellas, giving the fiction an authentic emotional core. 4. The marketing of books is harder than writing them. Coming from healthcare marketing, John expected the promotional side to be familiar territory. Instead, he found that getting traction for a creative work is "10 times harder than marketing healthcare." 5. The sauce-vs-gravy debate is real — and it makes a great title. John chose It's Sauce, Not Gravy! knowing it would spark conversation in Italian-American circles. For his family, it was always sauce, meat or no meat. 6. The sequel deepens the story's themes. While the first book centers on love, loss, and family, It's Sauce, Not Gravy! explores legacy, connectivity, and the tension between wandering and finding home. 7. Book three is on the way. Set more heavily in Rome, it will lean into the city's art history — Michelangelo, Bernini, Caravaggio — and a more mature version of Gio. Expected in 2027.

Bram Kanstein returns to The Bitcoin Matrix. He's spent over three thousand hours studying money. He hosts Bitcoin for Millennials — now expanding into Freedom for Millennials — and writes essays connecting fiat money to consciousness, attention, and the design of modern life. This conversation picks up where his first appearance left off. Once you've truly understood Bitcoin — what comes next? Bram's answer is that the orange pill is just the entry point. The real work is what happens after: noticing the bandwidth tax that costs you 13 IQ points before you've even started thinking, recognizing Bitcoin as "engineered truth" — the only economic anchor we can verify is the same in both our heads — and naming the spiritual crime of a money system designed to keep your attention off the things that actually matter. He's also organizing a Bitcoin-and-psychedelics gathering in Colorado, has just published Bitcoin for Millennials (his book, built from his first 100 episodes), and brings Michelangelo's Florence — 279 years under hard money — into the room as evidence for what humans build when the unit of account doesn't betray them. If you've ever wondered why everyone around you who saw the same chart didn't see the same world — this is the conversation to send them. We discuss: The bandwidth tax — Mullainathan & Shafir's research showing financial worry costs you ~13 IQ points before you've even started thinking, and how fiat is engineered to keep that tax running Bitcoin as an economic psychedelic (Yoni Appleberg's frame) — the dissolution of inherited financial assumptions and what comes back online once the orange pill metabolizes Bitcoin as engineered truth — the orange shirt thought experiment, the map-and-territory problem, and why a verifiable monetary anchor changes consciousness, not just portfolios Michelangelo, the Medici, and the Florin — what 279 years of hard money built, and what our era can't, in Bram's reading of why long-arc human work has collapsed into the bandwidth tax economy Subscribe so you never miss an episode. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Flor Bretón García was born in Venezuela and left her homeland at 22 — which means she's now lived outside her home country longer than she lived in it. Lawyer. Educator. Cross-cultural consultant. Mother of three adult TCKs. President of FIGT. And a woman who, after receiving her 598th job rejection, sat down on a Friday night and wrote an article that stopped LinkedIn in its tracks.In this conversation, Flor and Doreen unpack what happens when globally complex women hit systems built for linear lives — and why that's not a talent problem. It's a design problem.Flor opens with the moment she was quietly advised to take an accent-removal class, so as not to distract her students. It was the first time she felt the world asking her to become smaller — and she traces her journey from that moment of self-consciousness to her current view of her accent as an open door, an invitation for people to learn her story.That story took a sharp turn on one particular Friday evening, when she sat down and really looked at those 598 rejection emails. What she noticed changed everything. Many had arrived within 30 minutes of her hitting "apply." Others cited a search for a better "cultural fit." No human being, she realized, was reading her resume at midnight on a Saturday. The systems were doing it for them — and those systems are built to reward one thing above all else: predictability. The very quality that globally complex women are not.This is what Flor calls the great gap — the distance between what organizations say they want and how they actually hire. They talk about agility, resilience, adaptability, the ability to navigate ambiguity. But their applicant tracking systems, their recruiters, their hiring managers are all scanning for familiarity and linearity. A nonlinear resume looks like uncertainty. And uncertainty, to a system, looks like a no.What makes this conversation so compelling is Flor's refusal to let that be the final word. She invites hiring managers to ask a different question entirely — not "why doesn't this resume fit our template?" but "what capabilities is this career showing me?" Because there is intention behind every pivot a global woman makes. The move that looks like confusion from the outside is almost always a decision made in the middle of uncertainty, following a vocation, pulling a common thread. For Flor, that thread runs through everything she's done as a lawyer, educator, and consultant: redesigning systems that truly honour humans with dignity.She also gives us one of the episode's most memorable frameworks — the difference between a Forest Gump resume and a Michelangelo resume. Both are nonlinear. But one looks like things just happened to you, and the other reveals that everything was intentional, even when the path was uncertain. The difference, she says, is entirely in how you tell the story.And telling the story, it turns out, is everything. Not listing countries. Not cataloguing credentials. But pulling the thread, naming the vocation, and being clear about what you want the listener to do with what you've shared.

Reaching 1,200 episodes feels like the perfect excuse to look back at where it all began. Over the years, there have been conversations that made me laugh, made me think, and a few that deserved far more attention than they received the first time around. So this week, I'm opening the vault. Each day, I'll be re-releasing one favorite episode from the archives. Some are memorable classics, others are hidden gems, but every one of them still has something worth sharing today. First up: if the words Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles instantly got your attention, you're going to enjoy this one. Originally released as Episode 19 in early 2010, this conversation with Jay Mattingly takes a fun and unexpected look at DISC profiles through the personalities of everyone's favorite crime-fighting turtles. It's lighthearted, clever, and packed with insights you can still use today. Some business lessons come from spreadsheets. Others come from pizza-loving, crime-fighting turtles. I sat down with Jay Mattingly, our director of marketing, and somehow we ended up deep in the world of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. And honestly, it made more sense than you'd think. We were talking about DiSC profiles and Jay had one of those “wait a minute” moments. The turtles are basically a perfect personality map. If you remember them, you probably already know where this is going.Leonardo, Raphael, Michelangelo, and Donatello weren't just different. They were different on purpose. And that's where this gets interesting for business owners. Every team needs a Raphael The fast decision-maker. He jumps in, takes action, and yes, sometimes ruffles feathers. That's your D personality. You may not always love the delivery, but you'll love the momentum. Don't underestimate your Michelangelo He's the fun one, the energy, the morale booster. High I personalities keep the team connected and engaged. Without them, work gets done, but it's a grind. Your Donatello keeps you out of trouble Detail-focused, thoughtful, and maybe a little cautious. That C personality is the reason your big ideas don't fall apart under pressure. Leadership doesn't always look loud Leonardo leads, but not by overpowering the room. He's steady, supportive, and steps up when needed. That S personality often becomes the glue that holds everything together. Who are the Turtles on Your Team? The turtles worked because they were different, not in spite of it. They respected each other when it mattered, even if they drove each other a little crazy along the way. Sound familiar? If your team feels a bit like herding turtles some days, you're probably doing it right. The goal isn't to make everyone think the same. It's to understand how they think so you can work better together. Because in business, just like in cartoons, the magic isn't in one personality. It's in the mix.

Today On The Eric Metaxas Show, Eric talks with Peter Giersch about his new book Talking Of Michelangelo, a deeply personal story of doubt, beauty, mortality, and the four last things: death, judgment, heaven, and hell. They also discuss T.S. Eliot, Michelangelo, spiritual crisis, and why this book goes to places most modern Christians would rather avoid.

Super Groupies were a hot topic in the 1960s and 1970s, and definitely still are around here on Trashy Divorces. In this episode, Alicia gets into the life, work, and spiderwebs of Cynthia Albritton, known in the day as Cynthia Plaster Caster. Her art was unusual, certainly, but Cynthia went to great lengths to make her creative work her own. Cynthia was truly a Super Groupie, and is remembered in an alternate way than most of the other gals hanging around the scene. Pamela de Barres perhaps summed it up best about her fellow groupie sister Cynthia by saying "She was the Michelangelo of Sex, Drugs, and Rock and Roll."
