Greece is the Word: How science was born: With Kenny Curtis and Jillian Hughes, Greeking Out, Nat Geo Kids

Hello everyone! This week on The Cosmic Companion, we are pondering why Greece is the Word, discussing the birth of science in the ancient world, and what it means for us today. Later on, we'll be talking with Kenny Curtis and Jillian Hughes, hosts of the Greeking Out podcast, and authors of a new book of the same name, from Nat Geo Kids.Once upon a time, in the sunny lands of Ancient Greece more than 25 centuries ago, a bunch of curious folks decided to ask some big questions. "Why does the sun rise?" "What are stars?" "Why do planets move?". They were tired of attributing everything to the whims of gods. Much like overgrown toddlers, they wanted ANSWERS, and they wanted them NOW! (errr… then)...Jillian Hughes and Kenny Curtis appear on The Cosmic Companion 7 October 2023. Creative Commons 4.0 Attribution 2023 The Cosmic CompanionThe Greeks had a knack for asking questions that were way ahead of their time. More than 2,500 years before our age, a woman named Aspasia was known for holding gatherings of some of the greatest minds of her day, including Plato and Socrates. A gifted conversationalist, tales tell that she founded a school for girls, a groundbreaking advance for the era.  Democritus of Abdera had the crazy idea that all matter was composed of individual bits, which we call atoms. Building on the work of his mentor, one day around 425 BCE, he may have just been walking around, minding his own business when he thought, "What if everything is made up of tiny, invisible particles?" Boom! The concept of atoms was born.Then there was Pythagoras who had a thing for triangles. He may have been sitting around one day, doodling triangles in the sand when he realized that the square of the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. Mind blown! And thus, the Pythagorean theorem came into existence.During the 4th Century BCE, Hippocrates took one look at medicine and said, "This needs some work." [Not my words exactly, but… Yeah, sure.]He insisted that diseases were not punishments from angry gods but had natural causes that could be studied and treated. This revolutionary idea paved the way for modern medicine.Not long after, Agnodice of Athens practiced medicine dressed as a man, at a time when women were not allowed to be doctors. Thanks to her, laws in Athens preventing women from becoming doctors were overturned. [AGN: You're welcome!]But it wasn't all work and no play for these ancient scientists. Legend has it that Archimedes discovered his principle while taking a bath. He noticed that the water level rose as he got into his tub and realized this could be used to determine volume. He was so excited that he ran through the streets naked shouting "Eureka!" (which means "I found it!"). Now that's what I call a eureka moment!The birth of science in ancient Greece is a story of curiosity, ingenuity and occasional naked sprinting through the streets. The ancient Greeks might not have had all the answers, but they sure knew how to ask interesting questions!With questions come answers, and for a few of each, we're talking with Jillian Hughes and Kenny Curtis about their new podcast and book, Greeking Out, from Nat Geo Kids. ---Now. Let's talk about our friend Pythagoras. Remember him? The triangle guy? Well, his theorem is still used today in everything from architecture to video games. Yes, you heard it right! Every time you play a game of Fortnite or Minecraft, Pythagoras is there, making sure everything looks just right.Next up is Hippocrates, the father of modern medicine. His idea that diseases have natural causes was a game-changer. Today, doctors across the globe follow his principles. So, the next time medicine helps you out, remember to say a silent thank you to Hippocrates (but maybe skip on the leeches and bloodletting).And who could forget Archimedes? His principle helps us design ships and submarines. And yes, he's also the reason why your bathwater rises when you get in. So, the next time you're enjoying a relaxing bath, spare a thought for Archimedes (and maybe keep your "Eureka!" moment to yourself).Last but not least, Democritus' atomic theory is at the heart of modern physics and chemistry. It's why we can build everything from skyscrapers to smartphones. So every time you send a text or take a selfie, remember that it's thanks, in part, to a Greek guy who lived over 2000 years ago.So there you have it! The Ancient Greeks might be long gone, but their discoveries are still very much alive and kicking. It just goes to show that great science never goes out of style!Next week on The Cosmic Companion, we look at Global Warming: It's Not Just Hot Air!. We'll look at the science of climate change, and how our world could change in the coming decades. We'll be talking with Elizabeth Rusch, author of The Twenty-One, telling the story of a group of young people using the legal system to help reverse climate change.Make sure to join us, starting on 14 October, anywhere you see or hear The Cosmic Companion. While you are there, go ahead and do all that sharing and subscribing stuff. It'd be pretty cool if you did. Yup. Pretty cool indeed… Clear skies!---[COLD OPEN]So this is the future. Interesting.Well, good evening, everyone! I must say, when I was told I'd be time-traveling, I expected to see the future of Greece, not to land in 'Grease.' However, I am not entirely to blame, by Jove!Here are "The Top 10 Reasons I Thought Grease was Greece:"#10 When my agent said he booked me on a tour of Grease, I thought he said Greece. A natural mistake.#9 I thought I saw young people in togas and a group of Spartan warriors. It turns out they were wearing "poodle skirts" and "leather jackets."#8 All the spontaneous singing and dancing made me think I was near a Greek theatre.#7 I saw chariots without horses. I'm a scientist. Studying those was just natural. #6 One of the horseless chariots had lightning bolts on it. I naturally believed it to be a chariot of Zeus.[ZEUS APPEARSNo. Not me. I wouldn't drive anything that ostentatious.FADE]#5 The sight of people eating in a diner reminded me of symposiums, though I have been told that wine has been replaced with milkshakes. Those are pretty good, honestly. Have you ever tried a flavor called "chocolate?" #4 Hearing about a beauty school dropout, and seeing a woman surrounded by other women in pink, I naturally believed them to be Aphrodite and her priestesses. She still owes me 10 drachma. #3 Watching a dance-off at the local gymnasium made me think of athletic competitions in Ancient Greece. Plato would have loved it.#2 Coming across what I thought was an open-air play, it turned out to be something called a "drive-in movie." I think those are going to be pretty popular in a few decades. #1 And, the NUMBER ONE REASON I Thought Grease was Greece is… [DRUM ROLL] Seeing this teenage drama unfold, I mistook it for a Greek tragedy.OK. I'm ready to go back. Send James Maynard in, already…[FADE. OFF SCREEN:-unintelligible-What do you MEAN the chariot flies? That's ridiculous.]Clear skies!

What is the first thing that comes to mind when you think about football? Most people think about their favorite player, the tailgating, the crisp air of fall, or the stadium food. But what if I told you that math and numbers are a HUGE part of football?!? Eric Zweig, author of Nat Geo Kids' newest book, It's A Numbers Game! Football joined me today to talk about how math and numbers are not just something in a textbook but how it is an essential factor in the game. About the Guest: Originally from Toronto, Eric Zweig grew up as a fan of the CFL's Argonauts, the NHL's Maple Leafs, and the MLB's Blue Jays. When he broke his wrist as a young boy, Eric got Argonauts quarterback and future NFL star Joe Theismann to sign his cast. Eric has been writing professionally about sports and sports history since 1985. He worked for a small Toronto-based publisher affiliated with the NHL for more than 20 years and has written more than 40 books for adults and for children since 1992. Eric currently lives in Owen Sound, Ontario, Canada. https://t.sidekickopen07.com/s3t/c/5/f18dQhb0S7lC8dDZK2W2wWK742B9nMJW7t5XZs2BWcB0N5vw5h0cVPtCW3LqWkM56dB_vf24VHjM02?te=W3R5hFj26QkH1W49M7ZR4mBd5kf1JxwY5V3&si=5279092040007680&pi=66a7a752-cba5-4e50-bd19-a6f441e048ac (http://ericzweig.com/) http://ericzweig.com/books/ (http://ericzweig.com/books/) http://ericzweig.com/faq-for-kids/ (http://ericzweig.com/faq-for-kids/) https://www.amazon.com/Numbers-Game-Football-Eric-Zweig/dp/1426372892 (https://www.amazon.com/Numbers-Game-Football-Eric-Zweig/dp/1426372892) About the Host: Following the crumbs in the chaos is a full-time job as a Productivity Coach.

Ordinary Sherpa: Family Adventure Coaching and Design

We have often believed that experiences were more important than things.  In light of the holidays and people having gifting on the brain I am sharing some of our favorite things and offering some examples on how we have gifted adventures.    Active/Outdoors:  We have found that if we are comfortable being outdoors we are more apt to stay longer and enjoy it.  Through the years we have leaned on some of our favorite things and brands.   Cold weather gear: Gloves, boots, fun hats.  While we often hit sales at the Columbia Outlet, I also have good luck grabbing these as essential items from Costco.  We've had really good luck with the $12 kids winter gloves, and the base layers (which double as PJs for my kids because they are silky and cozy).   Used Sporting Equipment:  Because we do so much adventuring throughout the seasons and the kids grow so fast we rarely buy new equipment.  Some of the items we have gifted to the kids are Downhill ski boots and skis, snowshoes, ice skates.  These can all be found relatively inexpensive at a place like Play it again sports.  Last year my son wanted to up his mountain bike game and so we worked with a local bike shop to outfit a used bike that would work well for him for the next 5 years.   Bikes: In general are a good active gift.  If your kids are young (under 5) I highly recommend a strider or balance bike, or a family gift of a bike trailer.  We used a Double Burley bike trailer for well over 10 years.  It's also helpful for other things if you are someone who likes to bike.  I know people who use it to get groceries, to haul water back to their campsite or garbage away from the campsite.  It may have also been alternative transportation when a car needed fixing.   Roller blades are also a school-aged gift that was highly sought after.   Things to help enjoy time outdoors.  Last year my daughter received the big swing, it looks like a flying saucer, not sure exactly what it's called.  That swing has seen more attention this year than most other items in our house.  I even enjoy laying on it.  It does require a stable tree branch or a beam to hang it from.  If you are looking for something for the young adults, a hammock is ideal.  Ours is nylon and packs up into a small sack and we bought the adjustable bands and carabiners so we had the ability to take it with us many different places.   Hiking Shoes: last year we were introduced to Saloman Speedcross hiking shoes and I am telling you the entire family is now addicted to those and Darn tough socks.   Camping Gear: Sleeping bags- we had really good luck with the kids sleeping bags from Cabela's (this isn't the exact one, but very similar)  which were inexpensive, but much warmer than the princess and superhero style at most box stores.  We upgraded our older kids to adult sleeping bags - it's important to look for the temperature rating and be mindful of any texture issues your family members might have.  My kids all like the silky texture and no one likes their feet constraint with the mummy style bags.  Or other fun things like water jugs, percolators for coffee, cute storage bins for the camper, a new air mattress- practical things that will help adventure be more fun.   Travel Many of our gifts have previously revolved around a family travel experience so we have slowly built their gear to accompany and make travel more manageable and delightful.   Each kid got their own carryon bag (Owl and Monkey bags) wheelie bag and the coordinating travel pillow.  We invested in an Osprey Duffle that converts to a backpack- it's not small enough to be a checked bag, but in our world of having so much gear, the ability to quickly throw it on your back is great.  (We actually bought while out west on an Amtrak trip.  The Mother Lode travel backpack is on my wish list this year.   Other travel essentials: Packing cubes, toiletry bags, Kanteens (Klean Kantean once through security we fill our water bottles), Bentigos  were really helpful for our road trips- each kid packed their own lunch (coincidently they also are really helpful for homeschooling- having 3 kids with different lunch schedules they all make their own lunches each day now.   Tools to help them document adventures: Camera, journals, Etsy Poster for all the MLB Stadiums Some bigger gifts for adults were our Thule bike rack (attaches to the hitch and swings out so you can open the back hatch) and our Yakima car top carrier.     Location specific accessories or gifts that are inspired by a location Last year we gifted the family a trip to Hawaii (which will now be in 2021) so everyone got snorkel gear When we went to Disney I designed t-shirts for each of the kids, and also bought some helpful things like cooling towels For our stay at the Dude Ranch my daughter got cowboy boots We've also done things like personalized beach towels, or a cool beach gadget.   A book or movie to learn more about or where the movie was filmed (Older son- Major league for our MLB trip to Cleveland, Forest Gump for Savannah, and Jurassic Park last spring for our trip to Redwood National Park and our hike in Fern Canyon).  Things to remember a place by: Ghirardelli chocolate for our San Francisco trip, Jelly Belly's for our weekend getaway to Racine Apps or subscriptions OnX: My brother introduced this to us to give us downloadable maps that provide GPScoordinates.  He uses it for hunting, we used it for camping and hiking out west.  It's great for when you don't have a cell phone signal.  The free trial you can download one map, and with the subscription we were able to download several- not sure if there is a limit. All trails: again a free version to simply find trails to hike, great for planning our adventure trips and finding places to hike.  The subscription allows you to download the maps so again don't need cell signal to find the trails.  I only use the free version. They have the ability to record your hikes and share with others so they know where you are.  We already had OnX so will consider what we will do next.   Scott's Cheap Flights: Gearing up for airline travel, this is a subscription service (I highly recommend) that got us $200 flights to Alaska from Green Bay.  You can set your airports that you want to watch for deals from and destinations that are on your list and they email you any deals that pop up.  I have found great value from this and will be continuing.  State or National Park passes- reminder for National Parks 4th graders, and veterans get in free.   If you are interested in RV camping: Harvest Hosts or Boondockers welcome are memberships we've explored.  I haven't used them yet, but it's on our list for when we are RV traveling more frequently.  I am in several groups and have heard really good things.  Also if this is of interest, something like mobile hotspots or flexible wi-fi.  We have looked at skyroam a few times.  Again, we aren't there yet but if you are traveling a lot it might be worth exploring. If you travel internationally, SIM cards for those locations are needed items.  Also things like portable battery packs are helpful.   Kids subscriptions to magazines or activities: Nat Geo Kids magazines or Kiwi boxes  I will close with one of our favorite indoor activities is my son's current set of Laser Tag set.  If you are someone who needs to switch it up, my nearly 70 yo dad sits in his chair and plays with my 5 YO and it's been a good family activity to play.  A set of 2 were about $30.  We have 2 sets and have a ton of fun playing with those this winter.  And don't forget you can also get something like the Adventure Challenge book, with scratch off adventures for friends, couples, or families (Use Code ORDINARYSHERPA for 10% off).  And for 2 more weeks we still have the giveaway happening.  For anyone who leaves a written review will be entered in a drawing to receive a Advent(ure) Calendar to offer scratch off adventures for the 12 days leading up to Christmas.   Given 2020 is the year for making new traditions, you might want to consider how to add adventure into how you open gifts this year.  Maybe a new tradition of having them complete a scavenger hunt to find their gifts, or wrapping their first gift as a clue to where they can find their second gift.  Another tradition we enjoy is that that last gift opened is a family gift and the person who opens it is the person who finds the pickle ornament on the tree.  (Note: don't do this if you are worried about your tree getting slightly undecorated in the  process) While we are not here to reinforce consumerism, and acknowledge that many adventures can be done by simply putting down your phone.  We also wanted to inspire you to explore how you might make adventure have a more prevalent role in your family story in 2021 and beyond, and if one of these items would help you than I have accomplished my goal today.    This week we have 2 winners of the Advent(ure) Calendars.  Thank you to everyone who left a written review.  I love reading them and appreciate the time you took to share them with me.   1. Investor Mama writes:  Loving this podcast! Can't wait to learn more from Heidi.  W are trying to instill more adventure in our family and I know Heidi is an expert in this area.  Can't wait for more episodes! 2. Goatrider22 writes: Excellent first podcast!  I love the word hazardous in the definition of adventure.  Looking forward to connecting with a community of Sherpas! If you would like to be entered to win a scratch off advent(ure) calendar, leave a written review on the podcast platform you are listening on.  Take a screenshot and email it to info@ordinarysherpa.com Each week we will pick 1 winner for every 5 written reviews.   Thank you for joining us on this journey.
