C'est une héroïne dont on a longtemps ignoré le nom. Pas de fusil, pas de batailles spectaculaires… juste un carnet, un crayon, et une incroyable détermination. Son nom ? Rose Valland. Grâce à elle, des milliers d'œuvres d'art pillées par les nazis ont pu être sauvées.Le pillage naziPendant l'Occupation, les nazis ne se contentent pas de contrôler la France. Ils pillent ses richesses. Tableaux, sculptures, objets d'art : tout ce que possèdent les musées, les collections privées, et surtout celles des familles juives, est saisi. Ce butin considérable est centralisé au Musée du Jeu de Paume, à Paris, transformé en véritable entrepôt du vol organisé.C'est là que travaille Rose Valland, modeste attachée de conservation. Aux yeux des nazis, c'est une employée sans importance. Mais ils ignorent une chose : Rose comprend l'allemand. Et elle les écoute. Chaque jour, elle note les conversations, les numéros de wagons, les destinations des convois.Une espionne de l'artAvec patience et sang-froid, Rose Valland consigne tout dans ses carnets. Chaque détail compte : l'expédition de tel tableau de Renoir vers Munich, le départ d'un Cézanne pour Berlin, ou la présence de tel dignitaire nazi au Jeu de Paume. Elle risque sa vie à chaque instant. Si les Allemands découvraient qu'elle les espionne, ce serait la déportation, peut-être la mort. Mais Rose tient bon. Pendant quatre années, elle mène une résistance silencieuse, armée seulement de son érudition et de sa mémoire.Après la LibérationQuand Paris est libéré en 1944, ses notes deviennent une arme précieuse. Grâce à elles, les Monuments Men — ce corps spécial créé par les Alliés pour retrouver les œuvres d'art volées — savent où chercher. Des milliers de tableaux, parmi lesquels des chefs-d'œuvre de Léonard de Vinci, Monet, Manet ou Picasso, sont localisés, saisis dans les dépôts nazis et rapatriés en France.Sans ce travail acharné et clandestin, une grande partie de notre patrimoine aurait disparu, engloutie dans les collections privées ou perdue à jamais dans les ruines de la guerre.Une reconnaissance tardiveEt pourtant, Rose Valland reste longtemps dans l'ombre. Après la guerre, elle continue de servir les musées français avec la même modestie. Ce n'est qu'à la fin de sa vie que son rôle est reconnu à sa juste valeur. Elle reçoit la Légion d'honneur, la Médaille de la Résistance, et son nom devient symbole de courage discret.ConclusionRose Valland n'a pas combattu avec des armes, mais elle a lutté avec ce qu'elle avait de plus précieux : sa mémoire et son courage. Alors, la prochaine fois que vous admirerez un tableau impressionniste au musée, souvenez-vous de cette femme discrète qui, seule, a défié l'avidité nazie pour sauver une part essentielle de notre culture.

Tove Jansson sai vuodessa yli 1500 kirjettä tai korttia, joissa kyseltiin Muumilaakson asukkaista, mutta kerrottiin myös omista huolista. Mikä ihmeellisintä, Jansson vastasi kaikille, vaikka kirjerumba vei valtavasti aikaa. Tove Janssonin lähettämistä vastauskirjeistä paljastuu myös uusia asioita. Kirjeet kertovat, miten paljon muumikirjat ovat antaneet iloa ja lohtua lukijoille. Ensimmäisen muumikirjan julkaisusta on kulunut 80 vuotta. Muumilaakson asukkaiden elämänfilosofiassa riittää yhä ammennettavaa ja pohdittavaa. Kulttuuriykkönen sukeltaa muumien maailmaan yhdessä tietokirjailija Tuula Karjalaisen, muumiasiantuntija, tutkija Sirke Happosen ja kirjallisuudentutkija Maria Laakson kanssa. Ohjelman toimittaa Miia Gustafsson.
Monet maat panostavat teatterikenttänsä kansainvälisiin yhteyksiin enemmän kuin Suomi. Esimerkiksi Baltiassa järjestetään tapahtumia, joissa maiden merkittävimpiä teatteriesityksiä esitellään ulkomaisille kuraattoreille ja muille teatterin ammattilaisille. Meillä leikkaukset esittävään taiteeseen ovat alkaneet kaventaa jopa mahdollisuuksia koota esityksiä maan tärkeimpään vuosittaiseen teatteritapahtumaan, Tampereen teatterikesään. Ohjelman vieraina ovat Tampereen teatterikesän taiteellinen johtaja Tanjalotta Räikkä ja Espoon teatterin taiteellinen johtaja Jussi Sorjanen. Ohjelmassa keskustellaan muun muassa suomalaisen teatterikentän kansainvälistymisen esteistä ja niiden ylittämisestä sekä siitä, miten kehittää alan sisäisen kohtaamisen ja kriittisen keskustelun areenoita.
The Ulkopolitistin podcastin uusi kausi alkaa! Kauden ensimmäisen jakson aihe on hyvinkin ajankohtainen: Yhdysvaltain äärioikeisto ja maan politiikan oikeistolaistuminen. Monet ääri- ja laitaoikeistolaiset liikkeet ovat muovanneet liittovaltion politiikkaa. Joukkoon kuuluvat niin Amerikka ensin -aate ja 2000-luvun alun teekutsuliike kuin netissä järjestäytyvä alt-right ja Proud Boysin kaltaiset ryhmätkin. Kaikki ovat olleet viime vuosina näkyvästi esillä erityisesti Trumpin hallinnon liepeillä. Mitä äärioikeisto Yhdysvaltojen kontekstissa siis tällä hetkellä tarkoittaa, ja miten se on vaikuttanut puoluepolitiikkaan ja maan poliittiseen keskusteluun? Jakson vieraina ovat tutkijatohtori Pekka Kolehmainen Turun yliopiston John Morton -keskuksesta sekä juuri Yhdysvaltain kirjeenvaihtajuudeltaan Suomeen palannut toimittaja Elina Väntönen Helsingin Sanomista. Teknisistä haasteista johtuen haastattelusta tallentui vain puoli tuntia – tätä paikataksemme pyysimme vielä ääniviestit haastateltavilta, ne kuullaan jakson lopussa. Suurkiitokset Pekalle ja Elinalle joustavuudesta!
Jarkko Tontti -podcastin vieraana suomentaja ja esseisti Jukka Mallinen.Mallinen tunnetaan venäläisen kirjallisuuden suomentajana ja pitkän linjan Venäjä-asiantuntijana. Miten hän päätyi 1970-luvulla Moskovaan opiskelemaan kirjallisuutta ja venäjän kieltä? Miten kokemukset Neuvostoliitossa tekivät nuoresta kommunistista antikommunistin?Puhuimme muun muassa siitä, miksi Aleksandr Solženitsynin romaani Vankileirien saaristo ei johtanut Suomessa Neuvostoliiton maineen romahtamiseen kuten kävi Länsi-Euroopassa.Entä miten oli mahdollista, että vasta helmikuussa 2022 silmät avautuivat Suomessa ja muuallakin Venäjän suhteen? Olisiko meillä pitänyt olla realistinen kuva putinistisesta Venäjästä viimeistään lokakuusta 2006 alkaen, kun venäläinen toimittaja Anna Politkovskaja murhattiin?Mallinen tunnetaan rehellisestä asenteestaan taistolaismenneisyyteensä. Samoin ovat toimineet esimerkiksi Anssi Sinnemäki ja Riikka Tanner. Monet muut kulttuurialojen ihmiset sen sijaan ovat peitelleet ja kaunistelleet 1970-luvun tekemisiään. Mitä mieltä meidän pitäisi olla Helena Ruuskan kirjoittamasta Aulikki Oksasen elämäkerrasta?Entä onko uskonlahkomaisella taistolaisuudella vastineita nykyajassa?Kuunneltavissa Spotifyssa, Apple Podcastissa, YouTubessa ja muissa podcast-alustoissa.https://jarkkotontti.net/
Missing 411 keskittyy luonnossa kadonneisiin henkilöihin, joiden kohtaloissa on jotain erittäin outoa. Monet kadonneista henkilöistä olivat kokeneita vaeltajia tai metsästäjiä, jotka olivat tunteneet tienoot erittäin hyvin, ja olivat tottuneet kulkemaan haastavissakin olosuhteissa, eikä heillä ainakaan tiettävästi ollut motivaatiota itseaiheutettuun katoamiseen.

Everybodys Darling: Der Künstler dieser Folge ist ein richtiger Superstar. Zu Beginn seiner Karriere wurde er allerdings für seine Kunst ausgelacht. Es geht um Claude Monet, der vor allem für seine Seerosenbilder bekannt ist. Monet liebte das Wasser, eine Liebe, die in seinem Werk in der Kunsthalle deutlich wird. Welche Erfindung Monets Malerei veränderte und wieso uns diese bis heute vor Karies schützt, erzählt Kunstcomedian Jakob Schwerdtfeger in dieser Folge von Kunstsnack.

Vuonna 2023 kuollut arkkitehti Juha Leiviskä tunnetaan erityisesti kirkoistaan, mutta hän suunnitteli yhtä lailla myös muita julkisia rakennuksia ja asuintaloja. Leiviskä toteutti luovuuttaan myös valaisimien suunnittelijana ja pianistina. Leiviskä oli akateemikko, ja Suomen kansainvälisesti tunnetuimpia arkkitehteja, mutta suurelle yleisölle hieman tuntematon. Monet hänen rakennuksistaan ovat kuuluisia arkkitehtuurikohteita, kuten Myyrmäen kirkko tai Oulussa sijaitseva Pyhän Tuomaan kirkko, mutta esimerkiksi Kirkkonummella hänen suunnittelemansa seurakuntatalo on purku-uhan alla. Keskustelemassa arkkitehtuurin historian ja restauroinnin apulaisprofessori Panu Savolainen, Arkkitehtuuri- ja designmuseon tutkimuspäällikkö Petteri Kummala ja Juha Leiviskän pitkäaikainen työtoveri, arkkitehti Rosemarie Schnitzler sekä Leiviskän pianonsoitonopettaja ja ystävä, pianisti Minna Pöllänen. Toimittajana on Jonni Roos.
Você acredita que inflação é apenas o aumento de preços? E se eu te dissesse que isso é só o sintoma, não a causa? Neste vídeo, mostro por que essa definição está errada — e como ela pode sabotar políticas econômicas e decisões de investimento.

A política tarifária do presidente Donald Trump permanece no centro dos debates econômicos, com uma nova rodada de tarifas sendo imposta a mais de 90 países no início de agosto, intensificando as tensões no comércio internacional. No cenário doméstico, o Comitê de Política Monetária (Copom) manteve a taxa Selic em 15%, enquanto recentes encontros diplomáticos sinalizam uma possível aproximação do Brasil com os demais países do BRICS. Como esses e outros desdobramentos do cenário macroeconômico podem impactar os mercados?Participe da nossa conversa mensal com o economista-chefe Thomas Wu, que será realizada na próxima quarta-feira, dia 20, às 18h30.

Kaupallinen yhteistyö: JHL.Lapsiperheköyhyys on vaikea ja usein vaiettu ilmiö. Häpeä estää monia puhumasta tilanteestaan tai hakemasta apua. Köyhyys vaikuttaa perheisiin monin tavoin: se heikentää mahdollisuuksia saada riittävää ja ravitsevaa ravintoa, heijastuu terveyteen ja hyvinvointiin, rajoittaa lasten ja nuorten harrastus- ja vapaa-ajanviettomahdollisuuksia sekä kaventaa koulutuspolkuja.Lapsiperheköyhyys lisää osattomuuden tunnetta ja kasvattaa syrjäytymisen riskiä. Ennen kaikkea köyhyys uhkaa lapsen oikeuksien toteutumista.Lapsiperheköyhyydestä psykologi Nina Lyytisen vieraina keskustelemassa ovat Pelastakaa lapset ry:n erityisasiantuntija Aino Sarkia ja Tampereen Tuomiokirkkoseurakunnan lastenohjaaja Katriina Nuppola. Tässä jaksossa kuulet muun muassa: - Mitä lapsiperheköyhyys tarkoittaa? - Miten köyhyys vaikuttaa vanhempien jaksamiseen? - Miten köyhyys näkyy lasten elämässä? - Mitä meistä jokainen voi tehdä sen eteen, että jokaisella lapsella olisi mahdollisuus kokea kuuluvansa joukkoon?Lisätietoja:Suomea pidetään maailman onnellisimpana maana, mutta silti yli 100 000 lasta elää köyhyydessä. Lapsiperheköyhyys tarkoittaa tilannetta, jossa perheen tulot eivät riitä perusasioihin kuten ruokaan, vaatteisiin tai harrastuksiin. Köyhyys heikentää lapsen hyvinvointia ja kaventaa hänen mahdollisuuksiaan nyt ja tulevaisuudessa.Syitä köyhyyteen ovat muun muassa vanhempien työttömyys, korkeat asumiskustannukset ja yksinhuoltajuus. Myös matalapalkkaisissa tai osa-aikaisissa töissä työskentelevät perheet voivat jäädä ilman riittävää toimeentuloa. Sosiaaliturva ei aina kata kaikkia menoja, ja erityisesti monilapsiset tai maahanmuuttajataustaiset perheet ovat suuremmassa köyhyysriskissä.Köyhyys näkyy lapsen arjessa: harrastukset, retket ja kaverien kanssa oleminen voivat jäädä ulottumattomiin. Häpeä ja ulkopuolisuuden tunne voivat seurata lasta aikuisuuteen asti. Köyhyys voi myös periytyä sukupolvelta toiselle.Vaikka lapsilisiä ja maksutonta kouluruokailua on käytetty keinoina köyhyyden torjumiseen, ne eivät riitä. Monet perheet turvautuvat yhä ruoka-apuun ja lahjoituksiin. Vastuu lapsiperheköyhyyden torjumisesta kuuluu koko yhteiskunnalle. Jokaisella lapsella on oikeus turvalliseen ja tasapainoiseen lapsuuteen riippumatta taustasta tai perheen varallisuudesta.Hyvinvointiyhteiskunta ei saa murentua. Lapsiperheköyhyyden vähentäminen on sekä inhimillisesti että taloudellisesti välttämätöntä.Lisätietoa JHL kasvatus- ja ohjausalan sekä sosiaali- ja terveysalan toiminnasta löydät täältä:JHL - Kasvatus- ja ohjausalan ammattilaiset verkossa, Facebookissa ja Instagramissa.JHL - Sosiaali- ja terveysala ammattilaiset verkossa ja Facebookissa. -----Haluatko antaa palautetta?

Summary In this conversation, Monet Noctaris discusses significant updates regarding the planetary field and the recent changes in the energy grid. She explains the completion of the old grid's override and the activation of the new Mirrorwave system, which is designed to reflect a coherent tone that resonates with encoded crystalline beings. Monet also touches on the potential for past life memory recall and the importance of recognizing one's own tone, proceeding the Lionsgate Blast. Takeaways Monet Noctaris introduces herself and her journey. The old grid has been deactivated, marking a significant shift. The new Mirrorwave system is now active, reflecting a coherent tone throughout the planetary lattice and vault system. Encoded crystalline beings are beginning to recognize their own tones. Survival scripts are no longer enforced in the planetary field. Past life memories may start to surface for individuals. The Lionsgate ceremony was a pivotal event for energy shifts. Monet experienced technical difficulties during her meeting, indicating interference. The transition to the new era is irreversible and significant. Listeners are encouraged to connect with their inner tone for the first time. www.monetnoctaris.com

Summary In this transmission, Monet Noctaris aka The Black Rose of Gaia reflects on the end of her mission and the significant shifts in the planetary energy grid unfolding now. She discusses the activation of new energy systems, the role of nature in these transitions, and the Mintakan Crystal shares a message for the listeners. Monet tells the story of the Root Detonation via her Earth-body stargate on Lughnasadh (8.1.25) and explains what will happen during the upcoming Crown Ignition on Lionsgate (8.8.25), marking the start of the Tone Epoch for Earth via the Axis Mundi pathway. Takeaways Monet expresses joy in her new home in Austin. She reflects on the end of her planetary mission and its significance. The old energy grid is now officially offline, transitioning to a new system. Nature plays a crucial role in the energy shifts occurring on Earth.

Before the next planetary pulse, the Karmic Overlay (a non-native containment system around the planet for forced incarnation and entanglement) had to be dissolved and replaced with the Ledger System. Summary In this conversation, Monet explores the themes of spirituality, karma, and personal empowerment. She discusses the concept of karmic overlays, their implications on human experience, and the transition to a new ledger system that promotes freedom and self-awareness. Monet emphasizes the importance of personal agency in healing and offers practical steps for listeners to cut karmic cords and reclaim their energy. Takeaways The karmic overlay is not native to Earth. Karma serves as a delayed learning mechanism. The current karmic system is unfair and non-consensual. Transitioning to a ledger system promotes personal freedom. Truth becomes the dominant frequency in the tonal system of Crystal Earth. Personal practice for sealing active karmic connections. The ledger system will allow for immediate course correction. www.monetnoctaris.com
Summary In this conversation, Monet discusses the current phase of the planetary override, emphasizing the importance of toneholders in restoring Earth's original harmonic encoding. She explains the concept of coherence of tone, the need for stillness amidst chaos, and how individuals can stabilize their own tone to contribute positively to the planetary field in this specific transitional stage of the override. The discussion highlights the significance of inner truth and the challenges of navigating external chaos while maintaining tone coherence. Takeaways The planetary override is a sequence of events, not a singular event. Earth is transitioning to a tone-based planet, requiring coherent toneholders. The crystalline override restores Earth's original design and harmonic encoding. Toneholders play a crucial role in stabilizing the planetary lattice. Coherence of tone is about aligning with one's inner truth, not survival patterning. Engaging with chaos destabilizes one's tone and ability to help others. Finding stillness is essential for hearing one's own tone. The noise of the world can distract from personal truth and coherence. Staying in one's tone is an act of energetic counterweight. The process of coherence can feel lonely but is vital for this stage of the override, prior to the threshold tipping. www.monetnoctaris.com

John 19:38-42After these things, Joseph of Arimathea, a follower of Jesus, though a secret one because of his fear of the Jews, came to Pilate and asked if he could take away the body of Jesus. Pilate gave him permission; so he came to remove his body. Nicodemus, who at first had come to Jesus by night also came, bringing with him a mixture of myrrh and aloes weighing about one hundred pounds. They took the body, wrapping it in the spices and linens, according to the Jewish burial customs. Now, there was a garden in the place where Jesus had been crucified and in the garden there was a new tomb in which no one had ever been [buried.] So, because it was the Jewish Day of Preparation, and because the tomb was nearby, they laid the body of Jesus there. “The Primeval Mythology of Genesis: Creation”I've already heard some curiosity – maybe mixed with some cynical suspicion – about the title of this new sermon series: “The Primeval Mythology of Genesis.” Curiosity and suspicion aren't terrible things and I think it's the word “mythology” that stirs the pot for some people, which was kind of our goal. Part of the point with this next round of sermons is to remind ourselves and each other that we're called to read the Bible LITERATELY, not LITERALLY, and to see that its message and good news – its grace, hope, and promise – go deeper and wider when we do.So first, things, first … which is what “primeval” means, sort of … first things; of the earliest ages; the beginning of the beginning, you might say. The first eleven chapters of the Bible's first book are where we will spend our time the next few weeks. The good stuff before the good stuff. The stage-setting. The foundation. The genesis, is where we begin.And the word “mythology” rightly ruffles feathers if we are inclined to equate the foundational narrative of our faith story with the fables, fairy tales, and fictional “myths” of, say, the Greek gods (Zeus, Poseidon, Aphrodite, and the like); or Aesop's fables; or the tall tales of the wonderful world of Walt Disney. But that's not what we're up to.“Myth” and “mythology” can mean something more, something deeper from a theological perspective, which is what we plan to wrestle with. I would contend that, when we limit stories like creation, where we are beginning this morning, to all and only what we can glean from it LITERALLY, that that's precisely how and when we reduce it to something like a mere fable, a fairy tale, a fictional “myth,” rather than when we wonder about the holy, sacred, profound Truths that this story – and the others like it in Scripture – hold for our life and faith in this world. And where better to start than at the very beginning – “it's a very good place to start” – in the beginning, with the fact that, if we're honest, the two very different versions of creation that we just heard – from Chapters 1 and 2 of the same book – make it really hard to take either of them LITERALLY?I mean, those are two very different versions of the same story, right? (Many Bibles, like the ones we read from each Sunday, say it plainly. Chapter 2 is “another story of creation.”) The story in Chapter 1 tells of the day-by-day, very long work-week of the Almighty, who creates first this, and then that, with a break and no small measure of satisfaction between each.“…and God saw that it was good…” “…and God saw that it was good…” “…and God saw that it was good…”“…and there was evening and there was morning, the first day…” “…and there was evening and there was morning, the third day…” “…and there was evening and there was morning, the fifth day…”But Chapter 2 goes down altogether differently. In that version of creation, God – like some sort of holy potter, or divine craftsman, or sacred sculptor – makes a man from the dust, then plants a garden and puts him to work, then decides he could use a companion and some help, so then creates all the rest, and a woman, to boot.In version #2, we don't know which came first or next, on which day. And none of that matters.What matters is that God, something Divine, did something divine – created the heavens, the earth, and all that is in them. What matters is that it was and is good. What matters is that we are part of that goodness – you and I – and all people – created good, by God; and created for good, for God's sake.What matters, if you ask me, is that we stop reducing the Bible to some sort of prehistoric science book – the authors of which never could have known a thing about bunker-busting missiles or atomic bombs; about Gaza or the West Bank, as we know of them today; about electric cars, school shootings, cancer, chemo-therapy, Medicaid or social media. And that's okay. These stories have something to say to all of that – and to all of us – nonetheless.Because what the creation stories tells us – among so many other things – is that we are made in the image of the divine, even though we do so much to make that hard to believe. And we are made in the image of the divine, not just because we have heads, shoulders, knees, or toes……but we are made in the image of the Divine because we are made for community, like God; with the power to create and care about and have compassion, like God; that we have the capacity to do justice, like God; make sacrifices, like God; be generous, like God; forgive, like God; and love one another, like God.Oh, and this is important: the stories of creation make it very clear that none of us IS God and that we shouldn't try to be – which Pastor Cogan will get to next week, I believe.Instead, for now, let's let the stories of creation inspire within us what, I believe they were meant to inspire and to teach and to proclaim all along: a sense of reverence and awe about what God can do; a posture of humility and gratitude for our part in the grand scheme of things; and a response from each of us – and all of us together – that is generous, careful, and full of service that acknowledges our connection to all people and to the grand scheme of things.Because today's good news includes the notion that we are created “just a little lower than the angels” – as the Psalmist puts it – and that God calls us to live differently because of that Truth. God invites us to tend to and care for what belongs to God – the earth and all that is in it. God calls us to replenish what we use up – from the earth and from each other, too; to give more than we take, save, and keep for ourselves.So, what if these primeval creation stories are nothing more – and certainly nothing less – than prehistoric best efforts at describing something that cannot be described; that is too big for words; that are meant to love us and leave us in awe and wonder for what God has done for us – and hopes to do through us – for the sake of the world where we live?What if these primeval creation stories are nothing more – and certainly nothing less – than poetic prose from a prehistoric Mary Oliver, who could marvel at creation as well as anyone, as far as I'm concerned? Her poem Wild Geese, goes like this:You do not have to be good.You do not have to walk on your kneesfor a hundred miles through the desert, repenting.You only have to let the soft animal of your bodylove what it loves.Tell me about despair, yours, and I will tell you mine.Meanwhile the world goes on.Meanwhile the sun and the clear pebbles of the rainare moving across the landscapes,over the prairies and the deep trees,the mountains and the rivers.Meanwhile the wild geese, high in the clean blue air,are heading home again.Whoever you are, no matter how lonely,the world offers itself to your imagination,calls to you like the wild geese, harsh and exciting –over and over announcing your placein the family of things.What if the point of the creation stories is simply, and profoundly, to announce your place – and mine – in the family of things?And what if these primeval creation stories are nothing more – and certainly nothing less – than like clever song lyrics from a pre-historic John Prine, encouraging you, with a wink and smile to…“Blow up your TV, throw away your paperGo to the country, build you a homePlant a little garden, eat a lot of peachesTry and find Jesus on your own.”What if these primeval creation stories are nothing more – and certainly nothing less – than prehistoric pieces of art – trying to capture, with words, something like Van Gogh's “Starry Night”: or Monet's “Water Lilies”: or even Ansel Adams who, like the story tellers of Genesis, certainly had a thing for trees. But, speaking of John Prine, I hope the Gospel reading wasn't too on the nose this morning. But I wanted to connect all of this to Jesus, of course. Because it is as poetic and powerful to me that our faith story begins and ends, in a garden, sometimes.There aren't enough of even the most beautiful words, songs, poems, or prose to adequately convey the power of God's love in creation – or by way of the Word made flesh, in Jesus. And I think the two different versions of creation that we find in Genesis aren't in competition. They're just evidence and acknowledgment of that fact – of how grand and glorious and full of grace this God is that we worship.So I think it's a beautiful thing that both versions of creation's origin story – and the consummation of God's resurrection in Jesus … God's defeat of death … Christ's victory over Sin for our sake … I think it's beautiful that all of that, too, takes place in a garden – where light shines in the darkness; where the goodness of God bears fruit for the sake of the world; where sin never gets the last word; where we are all made and made new in God's image; and where hope rules, in spite of the chaos, because of the grace, mercy, and love of the God we know in Jesus.Amen

Episode Overview Andy takes on the YouTube critics and industry cynics head-on, delivering a family legacy perspective on why dismissing diamonds as "bad investments" completely misses the fucking point. From his grandfather's 1919 start in the business to today's lab-grown revolution, this episode cuts through the financial advisor bullshit to reveal what diamonds are really worth. Key Takeaways The Investment Reality Check: Not once has Andy heard someone say "I'd like your finest appreciating asset, please" Diamonds end up on fingers of teachers, truck drivers, accountants - people marking moments, not building portfolios That "worthless investment" often outlasts first houses, careers, and everything else people own Ask anyone celebrating their golden anniversary if their diamond was a good investment Historical Truth Bomb: Diamonds in engagement rings since the 1400s - Archduke Maximilian started the trend in 1477 That's 400 years before De Beers existed, 500 years before marketing executives were even a thing "A Diamond is Forever" amplified the tradition but didn't create it Humans have always been drawn to rare, beautiful shit that lasts - it's why the Louvre isn't full of Dollar Store crap The Hidden Logic: Hardest natural substance on the planet (perfect 10 on Mohs scale) Transparent - light passes through without distortion Forged under intense pressure deep within the earth Unlike other gems that fade or cloud, diamonds stay brilliant for generations Customer brought in grandmother's 1923 diamond - after cleaning, sparkled like brand new Natural vs. Lab-Grown Investment Reality: Lab-grown are chemically identical but prices are in free fall Natural diamonds: billions of years to form, millions to find and extract They're finite, ancient, with history predating humanity Natural values historically increase; lab-grown prices dropping fast Like owning a Monet vs. owning a poster of a Monet The Artistry Factor: Diamond cutting isn't automated factory process - it's generational craft Cutters visualize how to release a rough diamond's potential Weeks of precise cuts to maximize brilliance One wrong move = thousands lost in value Gabi Tolkowsky: "I imagine myself inside the crystal and see where I want the light to go" Value Beyond Balance Sheets: Sold diamonds to multimillionaires and kids who saved forever Sometimes big-ass diamonds carry expected weight, sometimes tiny stones pack the biggest punch Favorite customers return yearly, sharing proposal stories and struggles to afford their ring Diamond becomes physical embodiment of shared history Memorable Quote "Some things in life aren't meant to be measured on a balance sheet. When you're 90 years old, you won't be calculating compound interest you missed out on - you'll be remembering the moment you proposed and all the years that followed." The Bottom Line When you're 90, that diamond will still be sparkling, still carrying the weight of your shared history. Whatever you paid will seem like the bargain of a lifetime because some investments pay dividends that can't be measured in dollars. What's Next Lab-grown diamonds: The new kid on the block - time to clear up what they actually are and if they're right for you.

She reflects on inherited discipline, finding freedom through form, and why staying curious—about geology, textures, or even pickleball—is key to her creative rhythm.Highlights include:How a geology book inspired a new body of work built through 100+ clay poursWhat her grandmother's love of Monet taught her about aestheticsThe unglamorous truth behind art labor—and why she doesn't mind itUnlearning ceramic rules while teaching them to othersThoughts on burnout, balance, and the meditative value of hot yoga
In Part 2 of our Impressionism series, we leave the floating world of Japan behind and step into the bustling studios, salons, and sun-drenched riverbanks of 19th-century France. This time, we meet the artists who dared to defy the rules (Monet, Morisot, Manet, Degas, Renoir, Cassatt) and the dealer, Paul Durand-Ruel, who bet everything on their vision. We'll explore how these painters broke with tradition to capture the modern world around them…and how their movement spread, against all odds, to American collectors, museums, and artists. ______ New episodes every month.

What would you sacrifice for freedom? For Monet Bacs, Strategic Director at the LIBRE Initiative in Arizona, her father's answer was clear—everything. In this moving episode, host David From sits down with Monet to explore the legacy of her father, who fled Guatemala in search of opportunity, safety, and a future he couldn't find at home. Arriving in the U.S. as a teenage exchange student who spoke no English, Monet's father built a life rooted in hard work, sacrifice, and unwavering belief in the American Dream. “I'd rather be homeless in America than live under tyranny,” he once said—and he lived those words, choosing struggle in freedom over comfort in oppression. Monet also opens up about her grandfather's horrifying experience in communist Cuba and how her father's heartbreaking death during COVID, amid a broken healthcare system, ignited her passion for meaningful policy reform. Today, she works through the LIBRE Initiative to empower Hispanic communities with access to economic opportunity, education, and better healthcare—carrying forward the legacy of sacrifice and service passed down by her father. It's a powerful story of resilience, purpose, and what it truly means to honor freedom.
