Alright, welcome Tim Thomas to the show from down under and it's, uh, 11 o'clock tomorrow over there. Yep. This is coming to you live from the future. Or time travelers. So, we've had a couple guests from Australia and tell us what is a thing about Australia that maybe is a myth or something that isn't true? What, yeah, sure. Okay. So you guys have, uh, Thanksgiving Uhhuh where you, where you carve up the, the Turkey. We have Thanksgiving here as well, but we carve up a kangaroo. Really? I didn't know that. No, you don't. What do you serve with it? Oh, you don't? Oh, you're joking. I'm just, I'm just kidding you. Oh, you see my [00:04:00] eyeballs go really big. No, they're, they're too hard to catch. Yeah, I, I venture that. People think that, you know, crocodiles live in your backyard and, you have kangaroos as pets, but that's not true. Is it? No, although I was fortunate enough to grow up with my father working with the Aboriginals, and so, eating kangaroos, eating, anything that crawled or, walked on the ground was part of my, uh, diet growing up. Yeah, my dad actually worked in the church, with the indigenous, in some very low socioeconomic, circumstances. There's on the YouTube, there's those clips called Restoring Faith in Humanity, where there's these acts of kindness to people that could, you know, never potentially repay it. But that was just my day to day seeing my parents and their sincere, service, going beyond any sort of physical restraint. The older I get, the more I [00:05:00] appreciate it. I like that. Tell us how you came to know the Lord. What was your spiritual background? You mentioned your, family in the ministry. How did you know, Jesus personally? What did that look like for you? Well, having a faith based background, you think, you know, going to church every week, Sunday school, my father was the pastor, uh, that I would have a faith and I did, but I feel like it was someone else's. I didn't really own it. And the thing is, there's no bottom to the depth of the relationship. So I'm always finding this new depth of relationship, which makes the old relationship redundant. You know, letting the old self die. What you once clinging to and almost to find yourself with, you've gotta literally let that die and allow yourself to, to be transformed. And I've had, uh, quite a few deepening transformative experiences, most of which come out of, uh, [00:06:00] getting in some way, shape, or form broken. And there was something that happened. So my background is, I was a professional fighter, in the early mixed martial arts scene, which was, no rules fighting is what they called it back in the nineties. Mm-hmm. Uh, I joined the special forces and. Before you go on deployment, they get you to write a letter to your loved ones, uh, in case you die. And that was very confronting for a lot of guys. So you coming up against, you know, fear of death, uh, and, and fear in general, right? Mm-hmm. And I thought, well, there was only one time in the Bible where Jesus was afraid, and that was in the garden of Gethsemane. And he wasn't just a little scared. He was so scared he was bleeding blood. and I started thinking, why was he so scared? Why was he so fearful? And I'm like, it can't be for any fear of physical pain because I. I know guys, I can just flick [00:07:00] a switch and they can control their physical pain. And, and I'm sure he had that ability, he had power over his physical body. And I started thinking, what Jesus was really afraid about was that when he was on that cross and he was bearing our sins, he couldn't be with God. So this bond that had been there since the beginning of time, for the first time ever was actually severed. Mm-hmm. And Jesus, for the first time ever in his, in the in, since the beginning of conceivable time, he was alone. He was completely alone. So yes, he experienced everything that us humans experienced while he was here, but he did something that none of us, I. need to experience, and that is separation from God. Yeah. So when he was on that cross, that was Easter is a time of loneliness. My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? You know that, it's a bit like, you've got a child, you just put 'em outta the car and drive off. There's no physical harm being done, but those golden threads get severed. So, because I saw that, [00:08:00] because Jesus experienced separation from God, we never have to, and it doesn't matter if I'm alive or I'm dead, I'm doing well, I'm doing poorly. Nothing's gonna separate us because of Jesus experiencing that separation for us. And I, I completely lost my fear of death, um, to the point where I literally had fun with it, you know? Um, I remember guy saying, Tommo, you're not supposed to be having so much fun. But, that was my detachment from, from any fear because I, I realized that nothing could separate us. Oh, I Amen. To that. Wow. So when was your faith real to you? Was there a, a particular event that happened in your life, or? Well, to be honest, I have played in both realms. You might call it the woowoo, energy, whatever you wanna call it, um, new age. But there are some principles that they have in there and they talk about, uh, lower energy frequencies or what we would call in the Christian faith sins, you know? Mm-hmm. Fear, anger, hatred, you [00:09:00] know, lower energy frequencies. And if you are stuck in those frequencies, then you can't transcend to the higher connection with the divine, and then the difference between, your lower energies and your higher energies is courage. And as a Christian you'd say letting the old self die, that which you are familiar with. Okay? I always know Tim, as this particular type of person, this is what I do. This is what I think, this is how I react. And so to. To let go of that and to let that self die. And it is essentially a death, takes a lot of courage to step into the unknown. It's that leap of faith, catch me, Jesus. And, so I found it very useful to use the, technical breakdown in the sort of woowoo space to help me access the sins that I've been hanging onto. All the poison I'd been drinking to try and help hurt [00:10:00] other people. And I'm sure I was still saved by grace, but to, I think we naturally connect with God provided the blockages are removed. But we tend to hang onto these blockages. We hang onto to that which we are familiar with. I was very familiar with going, that person wronged me and I'm angry, so I want revenge. Or I might say I forgive them in my head. And yeah. But that just means that, I've cut them outta my life and I hope God punishes them some way somehow. You know? Yeah. That's not really connecting to something higher. And the way I sort of saw it was, you can draw these wrongs or sins closer to you. Uh, and so, my pathway to a living, breathing, active relationship with God and the divine, has me understanding that it does start in this physical space. It does start with me getting forgiveness for the things that have me in fear, shame, guilt. So, I'm a big fan of breath work and if you wanna look at it from the parable of, the [00:11:00] king giving his servant talents, pieces of gold, do something with it. And then when I return , I'll see what you've done with it. So inside of us is this, let's just say gold. And my experience of my true connection with the divine is he's given me this bag of meat around this wondrous, gold. And when this bag of meat does what I've been put here to do, it's like, it lines up to, to amplify the gold that's inside of me. And that's unique to each individual. Some people get it through playing music, some people get it, with exercise, some people, me, it was combat. I have to be honest. I feel like God put me here to do the things I was made to do. Ah, when, I believe, you're on, purpose. When energy's like money, how you invest, it's how you get it back. And when you are doing the thing that you felt you've been put here to do, you get an incredible reward. So when I started tapping into, getting rid [00:12:00] of the sin, the lower energy stuff and getting into the divine, uh, that's when it became like a daily loving, abundant. I have to reconnect, realign, and, to get that power, get that abundance. We get lost. We get lost in what we can see. We're a very visual society, so we're only looking at what we can see and, what is unseen is what's, super powerful. That's the stuff that I tend to lean into because, and I don't think we say this loudly enough. A man's happiness and generosity is relative to how powerful he feels. 'cause if you wanna see an unhappy stingy guy, I they're not feeling powerful. And I believe that starts with us. So I tell my son, our power starts with us. Um, I hope that lands, so you've probably heard the phrase, you are a soul. You have a body. You heard that before? Yep. Yep. And so a lot of people, they mix it up as they have a body and my soul's here just for the ride. It's, no, we are a soul. We are spiritual. And, yeah. I think, [00:13:00] folks can relate to what you've been saying. You, mentioned your military experience in Australia. Now I'm familiar with American military 'cause I come from a military family. Uh, but what is it like in Australia? Are there any differences? What is it like being a soldier there? Well, I would say it's, I've worked with some of the US troops, and to be honest, I didn't see there was too much difference. Of course as Australians, we'd just say we're much tougher than the US troops. But, but no, I work with some really, switched on guys from the us the Navy Seals in their special forces of selection, they got a hell week. In the Australian Commandos, we have a hell 28 days. Oh, okay. So something similar. And, you mentioned that you had gone through some abuse because of your faith. Was that connected to your military service or in, other areas of your lives? Well, I will caveat this. I struggled with military, [00:14:00] culture and I was always trying to figure it out. So I was always asking questions and, asking questions was probably not encouraged, but I always did it. Uh, so I was always that guy. So insecure alpha males always need someone to, you know, kick sand in the face of, 'cause that to them there's only so much energy in the room, so they have to take it, um, from someone else. And. there was a drinking culture there hanging out with the boys. You know, I had a young family. I didn't hang out with them. And I also had a Christian faith. And I remember there was one particular sergeant that, really tried to break me. Mm-hmm. And the thing is, my physical body, you can't break. You know, my, my mind, you can't break. I'm too tough. You know, I'm connected to something so powerful. but then something happened that I didn't expect. He managed to attack the people I cared mostly about. So I was on deployment and I made a promise to my then wife. I call her my then wife, not my ex-wife. 'cause I, I stand for a positive future. and I promised my then wife that I'd write her a letter every day. And this particular [00:15:00] sergeant, , said, um, you, that's a security risk. We want to take your laptop off you. Now, my wife had given birth, uh, to our second born two weeks before deployment. Mm-hmm. And I had all the pictures of my wife giving birth, my kids in the bath on this hard drive. Mm mm-hmm. And he took the hard drive and he put it on the, the army's equivalent of the internet so anyone could see it. And I'd never been in a situation where the people I cared about most was used against me like that, you know? And obviously that freaked my then wife out, you know, and she was scared that her milk will dry up. She was so stressed. And now then that then of course freaked me the hell out, and so I'd never been. Like, I got a, armor of God man, but it was like a knife got un underneath under all of it hit my heart and I just bled out. and I, I literally, in this lucid state, I saw a bird fly out from inside of me, just jump around in a rock and then fly off. And I'm like, what is [00:16:00] that? And I was later to realize that was the bluebird of happiness leaving me, and for about a decade there, 'cause, and when I went back to Australia and I, and you know, they decompress you with psychological stuff and, and I shared that the psychologist re reacted how you react and said, that is so wrong. Right? Yeah. Um, and so I put in what's called a an ROG redress of grievance. That's when the second layer of abuse started happening, because what the army is particularly good at is if you challenge rank, and I was just a private Okay. Nothing, nobody, oh, you know? Right. So, so they all thought, well, he's an external threat. Let's all bond together and, and screw this guy over a second time. So on every level, people who are really friendly then just treated me like I was invisible. No one would talk to me on base, yeah, I was kind of dead inside for the longest time, and, it really impacted my relationship with my then wife. Um, I was, it was the classic term where my [00:17:00] husband came back from deployment a different man, you know? Mm-hmm. Yeah. Um, Out of all that because I'm, I'm the toughest guy I know, right? Yeah. No, no one can break me. But the thing is, God put me in that place because it's not so much what we do that gives us value to others. It's what we've come through. And, and I had to go through that so I could actually have a heart having empathy for other people needing healing. You know, I was one of those tough guys that, if you couldn't handle it, bugger off mate. You can't handle it. Get out. There is a time and a place for that. There is a time and a place. I think this country is made great by that, but it's not the only option that, that is in your tool belt. What I didn't know was that when I got out, something happened when I got out. So in 2011, I think it was April. And this is just a true story. So I, I'd reached rock bottom. Well, long story short, I was about to kill a man. The Australian government wasn't paying me. Uh, this is gonna be murder. Mm-hmm. [00:18:00] Um, I'd, I'd reach rock bottom. PSDI didn't even know I had, I just had to drink half a car and a grog every night before I spoke to my then wife. Family was going to hell. what do you do when you're experiencing something you've never experienced before? And you need help or you see a psychologist? And that was such a strange concept for me, Diana, because I'm hurting and I've gotta go speak to a stranger. How does that make sense? I don't know this guy. I don't trust him. So I am completely triggered just driving in there, right? And after I told him all I saw in service, all the abuse, this guy wasn't just incompetent. Incompetency I can handle. This guy was apathetic. And at the end he's like, oh, so you think it was a problem with your mom and dad? And, and everything in the room just froze. And I saw he had a glass framed, you know, psychology degree behind him. And it made a lot of sense to grab that and feed it to him because he was a healer and he was supposed to be healing people, but he wasn't just not healing people, he was harming people. And in my state of [00:19:00] disconnection it made sense to do that. So I get outta my chair to do it. And this, this is really real, right? But then I felt this hand on my chest saying, red flag, Tim, you're the toughest guy. You know how many other guys are struggling in a, in this system that doesn't seem to care or want you to get better? And that's when I sat back down, Diana. And then I saw them, I saw all these people left and right of me just willing me on saying, you know, Tim, if you can find a way forward for you, you can find a way forward for us. And, and I really need people who are listening to this to draw this question to them. ' cause I didn't just go through that for myself. All right, there's a spirit at work here. Everyone's up against something. And the the golden question I asked, I invite everyone to ask, and that is how many other people are in your situation right now? And that, that's a real question. Give it a real number. And, and when I looked to my left and my right, there was no depth of people in my space. And I thought, well, look. It doesn't [00:20:00] matter if it takes me a week, a month, a year, a decade, I've gotta find a way forward. 'cause if I can find a way forward for me, I can find a way forward for them. And if it takes me a decade, I'm pretty sure that's the amount of time I'm gonna be able to save these people. And I was pretty sure that at some point in the future there's gonna be people that possibly haven't even met yet. Really glad I made a decision to move forward positively as opposed to going to jail. I understand that you saved, what, 17 people from committing suicide? Uh, I, I stopped counting at over 40. Oh, well that's even better. Um, I'd certainly like to hear more , about that. Okay. So my lifetime goal was to say, 'cause we've lost about 40 troops to bombs and bullets in Afghanistan, in Australia. But we've lost 30 or 40 times that amount to suicide. And so I had this goal in my head that if I can, save, 40 guys from suicide, I'll die a happy man. I don't care if it takes the rest of my life. This is what I wanna do. and I had no qualifications, but God had prepared me for this. So I'm [00:21:00] dyslexic. I, failed high school, but I could see patterns. And the pattern I saw happening is, is something that the mainstream spreadsheet never saw. And that was this. And these two things enabled me to save those 40 guys within a year. All right, so this is, this is powerful stuff that I'm showing. I need everyone to listen to this. It doesn't matter if the pain's physical or emotional for us humans, it'll get to a certain duration or intensity that it transforms from just pain into loneliness and isolation. And when we're all alone, when we're feeling isolated, all sorts of crazy crap. It can be justifiable. I was about to kill a man, and that was justifiable in my isolated state, but my isolation was broken. When I asked the question, how many other people are going through this? So I saw that, of all the millions of dollars of resources that get poured into veteran, it's all water off a duck's back if you're not breaking the isolation. And it's as simple as understanding that, especially for us guys [00:22:00] when we experience trauma. Yeah, we want to talk about it, but we are waiting for another, especially we need another bloke who has walked the same path to speak the unspoken words inside our hearts. So we've got these unspoken words that we can't speak ourselves, that we need to hear another guy who's walked that path. Speak, and then all of a sudden the jaw pops open. And I can't say what they normally say, but let's just say they say things like, gee whiz, I thought I was the only one going through this. Exactly. So, so breaking the isolation is the first step that it cannot and should not stay there. Uh, a lot of people get stuck in the feel goods of breaking the isolation. Oh, I'm not the only one going through this. Right? And veterans are really good at forming these anti-social social groups where, oh, look, we've broken our isolation, but I can only be myself around these people, and I'm only around them for one hour a week. You know, for the other times, I have to sort of go back [00:23:00] in my shell, right? Mm-hmm. So, yes, breaking the isolation's the first point, but it can't stop there. The next point that needs to be, uh, addressed is the plain and simple fatigue. I'm alone and isolated. I'm the only one that's got my back. I can't drop my guard for a second. Everything's a threat. 'cause everything is a threat. So I'm not sleeping, if I drop my guard, something bad's gonna happen. It's gonna be my fault. And it's this loop and it just becomes normal. Not sleeping, being hypervigilant, drinking lots of alcohol, lots of substances. And I made the mistake of telling the doctor I couldn't sleep and I lost six years of my life to pills, and initially i'm like, this is great long service, leaving a bottle. But no one tells you the cost of taking them. Yes, there's a benefit, but there's a massive cost. You get something, but it takes something from you. Mm-hmm. I lost a lot of memories. That's kind of a, a real gray patch in my life. Those six years I was on all these pills and I'm pretty sure I lost a bunch of memories from before that. So I. There's a time and a place for pills. They're [00:24:00] sometimes are lesser of two evils, but no one tells you the cost and especially nobody tells you just how hard it is to come off these things. Mm-hmm. You know, if you wanna feel like a minute, turns into an hour, be in the kind of pain that the withdrawals put through your system. I, I nearly went completely insane coming off of these things. So point I'm trying to make here is the two things I did that say 40 guys within, um, a year, and then I stopped counting, was breaking the isolation. And I want all the listeners to understand that what you are up against when you come through that, that gives you the qualification to break the isolation of other people going through it. You know, my pathway was a veteran, but it could be breast cancer, it could be a relationship, it could be anything. Whatever you're up against, you get through that. Live the life you wanna live. That gives you the qualification to break the isolation. Now, you might not say anything that that person hasn't heard before, but coming from you and your lived experience, you can put that from their head [00:25:00] into their heart, into their soul spirit. And then they get a chance to start making powerful choices, in a place of connection. And then getting them out of fatigue was where, when they gave me a bunch of pills, I didn't know breath work was something that could alkalize my neural pathways, turn my overthinking head off, give my body peace, give my body healing. It is the piece that transcends all human understandings. And I, and I don't just wanna talk about this there, there'll be a time at the end of this podcast where we'll have a lived experience of this. those 40 lives were saved by two simple PR principles that aren't addressed. Breaking the isolation, through authentically spoken words. I've got six pages of weapons I'm qualified in, but the most powerful thing I own is the authenticity in the words coming outta my mouth. That literally changes the axis of the world. And then getting people out of fatigue because people have 98% of everything they need inside of them. But if they're feeling [00:26:00] alone, if they're feeling fatigued, they can't access their own resources. But when their isolation is broken and they're out of fatigue, it's like their inner compass just turns on and it, and they, they know where they need to go. And it's just, it's, it's amazing how little people need when they get exactly what they want. Um, yeah, definitely. You know, I know there's a shark story somewhere. How does the shark come into play with, is that, just something you survived or is that. Oh, look, that was a fun NBE near death experience where, um, okay. Yeah. Very relevant. It was the classic one where you have your life flashing before your eyes. Right. Um, and the important part about this isn't so much the shark attack in the, in the context of a, a, let's say Christian faith afterwards, because I, I love the ocean, I love spearfishing. And there's always sharks where there's fish when we're chasing fish. There's, it's always a good sign when there's sharks around because that tells you you're in the right area. [00:27:00] And it's a fun story. Like this thing had my leg, and I don't believe it when people say, oh, I punched it and then it went away. I'm stabbing this thing in the eye and it's not letting go. And I'm about to drown, right? As a fighter, I've taken a lot of hits, but never, ever, ever has my body felt like a ragdoll being shaken by a dog. Mm-hmm. Um, so I literally felt that my body going, oh yeah, yeah. Like just so rapidly shook. I'm like, whoa. This is a great place to stop and continue.

====================================================SUSCRIBETEhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNpffyr-7_zP1x1lS89ByaQ?sub_confirmation=1==================================================== DEVOCIÓN MATUTINA PARA ADULTOS 2025“CON JESÚS HOY”Narrado por: Exyomara AvilaDesde: Bogotá, ColombiaUna cortesía de DR'Ministries y Canaan Seventh-Day Adventist Church ===================|| www.drministries.org ||===================11 de MayoAño de gracia«El Espíritu del Señor está sobre mí, por cuanto me ha ungido para dar buenas nuevas a los pobres; me ha enviado a [...] predicar el año agradable del Señor» (Luc. 4: 18-19).El Evangelio de Lucas nos cuenta que Jesús, cuando fue invitado a predicar en la sinagoga de Nazaret, leyó el texto del profeta Isaías (61: 1-2) que recordamos hoy. Coincidiera este pasaje con el correspondiente a ese día en el calendario litúrgico, o lo escogiera expresamente, el hecho es que él proclamó el cumplimiento de esa profecía en su propio ministerio. Como Mesías, Cristo había venido al mundo a predicar, literalmente, «el año de gracia del Señor» (NBE).Esta expresión se refería al año del jubileo. Nuestro término castellano «jubileo» tiene una raíz hebrea, yobel, que hace referencia al cuerno de carnero utilizado como trompeta para anunciar ese año excepcional, y una raíz latina, derivada del verbo iubilare, que significa gritar de alegría. Cuando Jerónimo vertió la Biblia del hebreo al latín entre los años 391 y 406, tradujo la palabra hebrea yobel por el término latino iubilaeus, con lo que quedó reforzado el matiz de júbilo del significado original que tenía la palabra en el antiguo Israel.En el año de gracia todo descansaba, incluida la tierra. Se daba libertad a los esclavos, se cancelaban las deudas y se restituían a las familias de origen las posesiones que se habían tenido que malvender o hipotecar, o que se habían perdido por desahucio o por cualquier otra desgracia (Lev. 25: 10, 39-54). Así se recordaba que Dios es el dueño y que nosotros solo somos sus administradores.Los israelitas apenas observaron esta práctica mientras tuvieron un país propio, es decir, desde la colonización de Canaán hasta la deportación a Babilonia. El Talmud asegura que desde la dispersión de los israelitas forzada por Roma a finales del siglo primero, ya no hubo más jubileos, puesto que la mayoría de los judíos vivían en tierras que no eran suyas, ajenas al principio del año de gracia. Jesús parece ser el último judío que promovió públicamente la celebración de ese año solidario que invita a agradecer a Dios lo que tenemos y a compartir con los que tienen menos.¡Qué hermoso sería que hoy, cuando solo unos pocos acaparan la mayoría de los bienes del mundo, respondiéramos a la intención divina con algún gesto concreto de amor, de solidaridad y de esperanza para los más desfavorecidos y decidiéramos que este fuese para nosotros un año de gracia!Señor, muéstrame qué puedo hacer para que este sea un año de gracia.

Send us a textHello there again my friends and fellow future funeral professionals!Firstly, here is the link to the  Quizlet I used to put this audio study guide together for you guys of the various facial profiles necessary for RA:Creator:HollyslobodnikLink:https://quizlet.com/935661967/ra-color-theory-comp-exam-review-flash-cards/This episode is a relatively short "crash course," much like my facial profile one, that is targeted strictly towards understanding Color Theory and its applications to the NBE and funeral service. This section of RA is absolutely VITAL to passing your Science section of the NBE, as they have MANY various questions that are obscurely centered around (and many direct ones, too) your understanding of Color Theory. I will be looking for more Quizlets that cover this for y'all, as this is extremely important for you to know and understand. Sciences is so overwhelming and it takes a lot to gather everything I personally feel you will need to know well to hit that magic 75% - so please be patient with me whilst I play a game of "Catch-Up" here! :)Also: as I always say: GO REREAD YOUR DARN TEXTBOOKS! They WILL save your butt, I promise! You will 100% thank me when you're sitting for your exams- both of them! They wrote their exams FROM THEIR TEXTBOOKS! DO NOT FORGET THAT!The most important and useful textbooks (in MY opinion, of course) being:Your embalming textbook - whichever edition, whichever version.I had: EMBALMING: HISTORY, THEORY, & PRACTICE Fifth Edition. Please don't fret. You really just need to read you textbook that you have, edition doesn't really matter as long as we're talking a book from this century... :)Restorative Art & ScienceChemistry for Funeral ServicePathology for Funeral Service(HEAVY EMPHASIS ON EMBALMING AND RA! HEEEEED MY WORDS, I AM BEGGING YOU!)Now, as far as my recommended study materials, I'm a big fan of the D.E.A.D Program to help prepare test takers for exactly how they will format and word their questions. The creator, Dr. David Penepent PhD is not only a huge name in Funeral Service education, he also has rewritten the study guide books that haven't been touched since Taggart wrote them decades ago. He has dedicated his life to Funeral Service education, and I fully believe his tools are extremely useful!To purchase David Penepent's study guide books, you can do so by accessing them via the D.E.A.D website under resource materials and use my code MEG25 for $25 off of each book. Now, I have HEARD that the code doesn't always work for both books in one order, if this occurs to you please just do two orders- I think shipping is free anyways. It is not a single use code, so please use it as much as you need to, share it with your classmates, mortuary student pals...whoever you think is worthy of such a glorious, generous act of kindness from you!Here is a link that will take you directly to the page with both books available for you to choose from, or get both, and just enter in my discount code upon checkout!https://www.deatheducationassessmentdrills.com/nbe-review-manualAs always, thank you all so much for you continued support!Support the show

Send us a Text Message.Hello there, my good friends and  fellow future funeral professionals!First off, I would like to formally introduce you to my very first co-host on this show, my very good friend Susan Richman, a practicing member of Judaism! She joyfully agreed joined me to help me not only with proper pronunciation, but also ended up adding some really interesting extra facts, too! She, just like myself, want YOU to succeed and know your stuff- and in the case of Judaism and Islam, I feel it is SO unbelievably important!I fully believe you will enjoy this episode. It was a nice little change from my usual lecture, I hope! I had so much fun having Ms. Susan join me on for this episode, and I really, truly, hope y'all do as well! I learned a few new things from her which is always fantastic- just remember, when you're preparing yourself for your NBE exams, both the Arts ad the Sciences, GO ONLY BY HOW THE BOOKS SAY IT. Ignore what YOU know, or what YOUR experiences are. We just enjoyed discussing things, as I usually do. But please remember the NBE is a test of your ability to regurgitate oodles of information, not practicality or what you would actually do in certain situations, you know?Secondly, here are the links to the three Quizlets that I have used to put this episode together for y'all: (I couldn't find just one that really, truly, covered everything you NEED to know for what could get thrown at you during your NBE)THESE ARE NOT IN ORDER, I COMBINED ALL OF THESE DUE TO REPEAT IMFO:1: https://quizlet.com/45242337/jewish-funeral-rites-flash-cards/     Creator: EWhite01222: https://quizlet.com/15706190/jewish-funeral-rites-flash-cards/     Creator: jessica_g_lawrence3: https://quizlet.com/99630833/funeral-directing-jewish-and-islamic-funeral-rite-exam-iv-flash-cards/     Creator: SamanthaHHernandezThis episode will cover A LOT of really important information to help you prepare for your exam!Also: as I always say: GO REREAD YOUR DARN TEXTBOOKS!

How difficult was life in the Middle Ages? This is something archaeologists and historians have debated for decades. In recent years, new techniques, including genetic analysis, have given us new insights into the lives of our distant ancestors in the Medieval Era. Their findings are unsettling. Life in the Middle Ages was far more difficult than we imagine.My guest in this episode is Prof. Eileen Murphy from Queen's University Belfast. Eileen has recently published groundbreaking research on daily life in early medieval Ireland, based on her analysis of human remains excavated in Co. Roscommon. In this podcast, she answers all your questions on what life was like.Eileen shares her discoveries on how people survived in a hard and difficult world. It's not for the faint of heart.This episode is not suitable for children.Our interview is based on the book "The Forgotten Cemetery: Excavations at Ranelagh, Co. Roscommon," available for free at https://www.tii.ie/technical-services/archaeology/publications/tii-heritage/.Eileen is the deputy head of the School of Built & Natural Heritage at Queen's University Belfast: https://www.qub.ac.uk/schools/NBE/.

Nach 189 Folgen und mehr als 185 großartigen Gäst:innen findet die NBE ihr vorläufiges Ende. Wir sagen vorläufig, weil man ja nie weiß, was als nächstes kommt. Welche verrückten Ideen Nilz doch noch aus dem Hut zaubert, wer als nächstes ein neues Konzept pitcht und den ganz großen Relaunch wagt. Aber, jetzt ist sie zunächst hier, die 190. Folge, die NBE Adé. Die Frau mit der besten Lache der Welt, Evelyn Weigert moderiert durch diese emotionale und mit Nostalgie gespickte Abschiedsfolge, wodurch Nilz selbst zum Gast seines eigenen Podcasts wird. Beide blicken gemeinsam auf eine aufregende NBE-Zeit voller spannender, schöner, trauriger, aber auch nachdenklicher und ernster Momente zurück. Nebenbei gibt es einige Überraschungen und vor allem viele Sprachnachrichten von ehemaligen Gäst:innen und NBE-Teammitgliedern zu hören. Außerdem testet Evelyn Nilz' Wissen in zwei besonders herausfordernden Spielen und dafür gibt es am Ende einen sehr schmackhaften Preis. Zum Schluss möchten wir - Nilz und das Team von Pool Artists - unserer Hörerschaft und treuen Community von Herzen danken: Für das Mithören, das Kommentieren, eure Wünsche, eure Kritik und eure enorme Unterstützung. Ohne euch wüssten viele Leute gar nicht, dass dieser Podcast existiert. Ohne euch, keine 190 Folgen der Nilz Bokelberg Erfahrung. Wir werden das rosa-schimmernde NBE-Bonbon am Donnerstagmorgen im Feed sehr vermissen und freuen uns aber gleichzeitig auf alles, was noch kommen mag! Hosted on Acast.

Wer sitzt denn da so glücklich und rundum gut gelaunt am Tisch im Wohnzimmerstudio? Es ist Jurassica Parka! Auftritt Nummer Zwei ist bombastischer und intensiver als die Zuhörer:innen sich jemals erträumt hätten. Was hat sich in dem Leben der Travestiekünstlerin in den letzten drei Jahren verändert, seitdem sie das erste Mal bei der NBE zu Gast war? Da müssen Jurassica und Nilz auf jeden Fall groß ausholen, denn Jurassic ist ein ganz schön fleißiges Showbienchen. Außerdem erzählt sie hier in ihrer zweiten Folge sehr offenherzig von ihrer Abstinenzentscheidung, wie sie es geschafft hat, mit Sport wieder nüchtern zu werden und das Nachtleben dadurch von einer ganz anderen Seite kennengelernt hat. Am Ende der Folge blicken Jurassica und Nilz gemeinsam auf ihre stylische Vergangenheit zurück: Welche ihrer fantastischen Travestie-Outfits sind heute noch der absolute Renner und welche für die Tonne? Wie geht sie damit um, dass Drag immer mehr im Mainstream wahrgenommen wird? Wieso sind die “Golden Girls” ihre absolute Lieblingsserie? Und was für Projekte stehen bei ihr als nächstes auf der Liste? Hört in dieser Folge nicht nur, was Jurassica als nächstes geplant hat. Auch Nilz verrät in dieser Folge offiziell, was nach der NBE eines seiner nächsten Projekte werden wird! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Wenn Kreativität sich in eine Person verwandeln würde, dann wäre es Tommy Krappweis. Der Mittelalter-Fan hatte schon als Teenager so einen starken kreativen Output, sodass er den Schulabschluss gar nicht abwarten konnte, um alles auf eine Karte zu setzen: Er gründete eine eigene Produktionsfirma. Moderierte die RTL Samstagnacht. Schreibt bis heute erfolgreich (Dreh)Bücher. Produzierte für Stefan Raab Musikvideos und erschuf das bekannteste Brot der Welt, “Bernd das Brot". Seit letztem Jahr ist Tommy Produzent und Drehbuchautor der Serie “Kohlrabenschwarz”, die sehr erfolgreich bei Paramount Plus lief. Jetzt hat Paramount aber die 2. Staffel aus steuerlichen Gründen abgesetzt. Wie geht es also nun mit der Serie weiter? Neben der aktuellen Situation von “Kohlrabenschwarz”, brennen Nilz aber auch viele weitere Fragen auf der Zunge: Ist der nächtliche Bernd-das-Brot-Loop für Menschen, die betrunken von der Party kommen? Wie war es, mit Stefan Raab zusammenzuarbeiten? Hat man als Hörspielautor ein besseres Gefühl für gute Dialoge, als wenn man ein Drehbuch für Filme schreibt? Alle Antworten hört ihr in dieser Folge der NBE! Wenn ihr an der Kohlrabenschwarz-Fan-Aktion teilnehmen wollt, findet ihr hier alle Infos dazu: https://kohlrabenschwarz-fans.de/ Hosted on Acast.

ür mich ist Metal Freiheit, dass du alles singen und sagen kannst, was du sagen willst, da gibt es keine Grenzen.” sagt Doro Pesch, die Queen of Metal, zu Anfang in dieser Folge der NBE. Und ja, Metal ist Doros Leben. Doro atmet Metal. Und Doro versprüht die Liebe und Leidenschaft für Metal auf alle, die ihr zuhören. Die Sängerin erzählt im Interview mit Nilz von einem ihrer engsten Freunde Lemmy Kilmister, der nicht nur als Idol auf dem NBE-Wohnzimmertisch für sie steht, sondern sogar auf ihrem T-Shirt abgedruckt ist. Welche Erinnerungen bleiben an ihn? Welches Land ist so metalverrückt, dass es einen Doro-Feiertag dort gibt? Und was hat sie bisher in mehr als 40 Jahren im Metal-Business schon alles erlebt? Auf kleinen Bühnen angefangen, war sie zunächst mit ihren ersten Bands wie Snakebite, Beast und Attack unterwegs. Später ist sie mit ihrer Band Warlock in immer größeren Clubs aufgetreten. Irgendwann waren es Hallen und ziemlich schnell stand sie auf Festivalbühnen, die mit der Zeit immer größer und spektakulärer wurden. Ohne Feuer, ohne Pyro und ohne viel Kontakt mit den Fans sind Doros Shows inzwischen undenkbar. So auch diese sehr besondere Folge der NBE, denn Leute - Doro ist und bleibt einfach eine Legende!

Vorhang auf, die Queer Eye Queen Avi Jakobs ist zu Gast in der NBE! Die Influencerin, Make-Up-Artistin und Aktivistin kennt ihr sehr wahrscheinlich von Instagram, wo sie ihren Zuschauer:innen nicht nur tolle Beauty-Tipps verrät, sondern sich auch aktiv für mehr Sichtbarkeit queerer Menschen einsetzt. In ihrer Bubble bleibt sie dabei aber nicht. Als eine Art Schnittstelle leistet sie Aufklärungsarbeit sowohl in privaten, als auch öffentlich-rechtlichen Formaten. Ihr Wunsch ist es, eine Sprache im Diskurs über Geschlechtsidentitäten zu finden, die alle verstehen. Nilz will hierbei eine Unterstützung sein und spricht ausführlich und auch sehr persönlich in dieser Folge mit Avi darüber, wie sie zu der Person geworden ist, die nun am NBE-Wohnzimmertisch sitzt. Wie ist es, als queere Person in einer Kleinstadt aufzuwachsen? Warum zieht sie nach vielen Jahren wieder mit ihrer Mutter zusammen? Ist Avi harmoniesüchtig? Und wie fluide können Personen in Sexualität und Identität sein? Hört auf jeden Fall rein in diese sehr harmonische und inspirierende Folge der NBE, die zum Ende noch sehr stilsicher wird.

Bereitet eure Lieblingssnacks vor, macht es euch gemütlich und drückt auf Play, denn die ausgewiesene Snackspertin Anna Dushime ist zum zweiten Mal zu Gast in der NBE! Anna ist aber nicht nur Snackspertin, Moderatorin und Podcasterin, sie bringt ein enormes Wissen in der Kategorie Serien mit. Das muss natürlich direkt getestet werden, deswegen spielen Nilz und sie ein besonders schwieriges Serienquiz, bei dem ihr direkt mitraten könnt. Und im Anschluss wird es schön süß und salzig beim einzigartigen NBE-Späti-Snacktasting, das einige Überraschungen zu bieten hat. Wir wünschen euch ganz viel Freude mit dieser zuckersüßen und sehr unterhaltsamen Folge der NBE! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Zur Abwechslung wird es in dieser Folge der NBE mal sehr philosophisch, denn Jan Skudlarek sitzt am NBE-Wohnzimmertisch. Der Ex-Lyriker, Autor und Professor für Soziale Arbeit liebt es, sich über gesellschaftliche Themen zu unterhalten, sie zu analysieren und Lösungsansätze zu formulieren. In einer politisch aufregenden Zeit wie diese passen Jans Forschungsthemen wie Verschwörungstheorien, die bevorstehende Wahlen in den USA und Solidarität also perfekt rein. Zu Anfang taucht Nilz aber kurz in Jans Biografie ab: Wie ist es, als Kind auf Mallorca aufzuwachsen? Sind Internate die besseren Schulen? Was ist an Lyrik so faszinierend? Warum gibt es gerade in den sozialen Medien so viel Hass? Und wie kommen wir als Gesellschaft wieder zusammen? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Dr. Leon Windscheid ist der wissenschaftliche Sidekick von Atze Schröder im Podcast “Betreutes Fühlen”, Psychologe und Autor. In dieser Folge der NBE wird es aber mit ihm unerwartet politisch, denn Leon muss mal kurz real talken darüber, was da gerade im Bundestag abgeht. Aber keine Sorge, es werden auch die etwas leichteren Fragen gestellt: Was denkt er heute über seine Million, die er bei Günther Jauch gewonnen hat? Inwiefern verändern die Leute, mit denen er in seinem Podcast “In extremen Köpfen” spricht, seine Weltsicht? Was hält er von Reality TV? Wie ist es, mit Atze Schröder eine Show vorzubereiten und selbst eine zu konzipieren? Dieses Gespräch steckt voller neuer Erkenntnisse und Perspektiven, denn wenn uns einer die Welt besonders gut erklären kann, dann ist es Dr. Leon Windscheid! Hosted on Acast.

Ilgen-Nur, die coolste Socke im deutschen Musikbusiness, ist in dieser Folge zu Gast bei der NBE! Allein schon wenn Ilgen-Nur den Raum betritt, versprüht sie maximal lässige Vibes. Ganz smooth werden die Hörer:innen von Nilz in die Welt von Ilgen-Nur eingeführt und es öffnen sich in dieser Folge die Tore zu der kleinen, großen Welt der deutschen Indie-Szene. In dieser koexistieren vor allem die Liebe zu ihren Instrumenten, ihr Softspot für L.A. und ihre Leidenschaft fürs Komponieren. Welches ist ihr Lieblingsinstrument? Wie wurde sie zu einer der gefragtesten Künstler:innen in der deutschen Indie-Szene? Und welche Künstler:innen haben Ilgen-Nur 2023 in ihrer Arbeit inspiriert? Holt euch eine warme Schoko-Brezel und ein Heißgetränk vom nächsten Bäcker und los geht es mit Ilgen-Nur & Nilz! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Ein erfolgreiches NBE-Jahr geht in die letzte Runde, aber natürlich nicht bevor Alli Neumann das zweite Mal die NBE besucht hat. Denn 2023 war ein ziemlich gutes Alli-Neumann-Jahr: Sie war für Sing mein Song in Südafrika, hat auf zig Festivals gespielt und vor allem hat sie ihr neues Album Primetime veröffentlicht. Zu der gleichnamigen Single ist ein Musikvideo erschienen und das strotzt nur so von Film- und Musikvideo-Verweisen, deswegen werden in dieser Silvesterfolge Alli und Nilz mit einem ultimativen Primetime-Quiz von der NBE-Redaktion herausgefordert. Freut euch also auf eine sehr unterhaltsames Gespräch zum Abschluss des NBE-Jahres und kommt gut ins Jahr 2024! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Große Freude bei der NBE, denn dies ist die allererste Folge, die mit unseren treuen NBE-Hörer:innen aufgenommen wurde! Drei von euch konnten sich einen Platz am Studiotisch bei Pool Artists sichern.

Willkommen Oliver Wnuk zur NBE in der Adventszeit! Oliver selbst ist auch schon richtig in Weihnachtsstimmung, denn er hat dieses Jahr den Weihnachtsfilm “Das Fest der Liebe” gedreht, der ab morgen in der ARD-Mediathek zu sehen ist. Das ist nur eine von vielen Produktionen, an denen Oliver bisher in seiner Schauspieler-Karriere beteiligt gewesen ist: Die meisten kennen ihn aus Stromberg, wo der Ulf verkörperte und in den letzten Jahren war er vor allem in Nord Nord Mord als Hinnerk Feldmann zu sehen. Nebenbei ist er Vater von zwei Kindern, schreibt Kinderbücher und Drehbücher. Oliver erzählt in dieser NBE sehr offen, wie er zu dem Menschen geworden ist, der er heute ist. Währenddessen erfährt man viel Persönliches, das ihr wahrscheinlich noch nicht über den Schauspieler wusstet: Was hat er als Jugendlicher in Konstanz so angestellt? Wie sieht er aus heutiger Sicht seine Bekanntheit, die er durch seine Rolle in Stromberg erlangte? An was glaubt er heute noch? Und wieso fällt ihm Leichtigkeit so schwer? Hosted on Acast.

Es duftet nach Matcha im Raum und eine frische Brise finnische Weihnacht weht ins NBE-Wohnzimmerstudio, denn Aino Laberenz ist zu Gast in der NBE. Das Leben der Kostümbildnerin ist geprägt durch ihren Vater, der sie früh an das kulturelle Leben heranführte, ganz egal ob das durch klassische Musik, das Theater oder sein eigenes Programmkino war. An das Leben in Finnland kann sich Aino nicht erinnern, weil sie mit ihrer Familie früh aus Turku weg ist, aber dafür verbindet Aino viele Erinnerungen mit ihrer Heimat Wetter an der Ruhr. Nach der Schule arbeitete sie an verschiedenen Theatern und baute sich langsam aber stetig ein großes Netzwerk in der Kulturbranche auf. Wie blickt sie heute auf das Ruhrgebiet? Welcher ist ihr liebster Hitchcock-Film? Was ist das Faszinierende an dem Beruf der Kostümbildnerin? / Macht man als blaues Mädchen im Theater? Und wie ist es heute als Geschäftsführerin des Operndorf-Projekts in Burkina Faso zu arbeiten? Herzlich Willkommen Aino Laberenz zur NBE! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Da geht doch im dunklen, nasskalten November direkt die Sonne auf: Lisa Feller ist endlich zu Besuch in der NBE! Diese großartige Komikerin bringt eine große Ladung Talent und Herz mit und hat sich wirklich von Kopf bis Fuß der Bühne verschrieben. Dabei war das nie ihr Plan: Studiert hat Lisa eigentlich Grundschullehramt mit dem Schwerpunkt katholische Religion - nicht gerade ein Studiengang, wo man viel zu lachen hat. Aber das Uno-Radio Q gab ihr die erste Gelegenheit, sich kreativ auszuleben. Danach ging es zum Radiosender auf Mallorca, in die Aida-Comedy-Crew, auf die Impro-Bühne bis in die großen Comedy-Shows im Fernsehen. Wie ergattert man einen Job auf der Aida? Wie kam es zu dem Podcast “Naschkatzen”? Und wie ist das Leben als tourende, alleinerziehende Mutter mit Kindern, die sich wilde Gerichte ausdenken? Die Münsteranerin bringt Nilz in dieser Folge so aus der Fassung, dass er die Anmoderation schon ab der Hälfte komplett verwirft, aber hört selbst! *Werbung*FOMO ist wieder da!

Es wird gehobelt, es fliegen die Sägespäne - nein, die NBE wird nicht renoviert, aber eine Frau mit schwarzem Hoodie mit dem Logo "Repair don't Replace" sitzt am holzigen NBE-Wohnzimmertisch und ist zumindest gedanklich kurz davor, einmal den Raum umzugestalten: die wunderbare Laura Kampf. Als selbst ernannte Makerin und Künstlerin erzählt sie davon, wie sie das Basteln, das Einfach-Mal-Machen zu ihrem Hauptberuf gemacht hat. Heute zeigt sie ihre Leidenschaft nicht nur der YouTube-Maker:innen-Community, sondern auch dem jüngeren Publikum im Kinderfernsehen bei der Sesamstraße oder der Sendung mit der Maus. Was verbindet sie mit ihrer Schulzeit? Was ist aus “Lieselotte”, ihrem Fachwerkhaus geworden? Wie ist es, zu Fuß durch L.A. zu laufen? Und würde sie für immer YouTube-Videos machen wollen? Ein ganz herzliches Willkommen, Laura Kampf in der NBE!Hier sind die Infos zur Bewerbung bei der NBE:Schickt uns eine max. 60-sekündige Sprachnachricht, was ihr zu eurer NBE mitbringen würdet, bis zum 12.

Bei Gereon Klug weiß man im ersten Moment nicht, was passiert hier und man fragt sich, was genau macht dieser Mensch eigentlich alles? Denn der Labelgründer, Autor und ehemalige Plattenladenbesitzer ist eigentlich ständig auf Achse. Gereon treibt sich seit eh und je in der alternativen Hamburger Künstler:innen-Szene herum, hat diverse Projekte in der Pipeline, schrieb z.B. den Song “Leider Geil” von Deichkind und begann sehr früh ein Künstler:innen-Netzwerk aufzubauen, in dem er Hamburger Künstler:innen in seinen legendären Plattenladen “Hanseplatte” als Konzert-Acts einlud und dadurch auch bekannt machte. Er und Nilz sprechen über Reggae, übers Schreiben von Kolumnen und Büchern u.a. auch über Gereons neuestes Werk “Die Nachteile von Menschen”. Wie kam es zu der Gründung mehrerer Plattenläden im Laufe seines Lebens? Wer ist der unfreundlichste Plattenhändler Berlins? Was ist OIL? Und wer ist eigentlich sein Vorbild? Das alles und mehr hört ihr nur hier in der NBE.Hier sind die Infos zur Bewerbung bei der NBE:Schickt uns eine max. 60-sekündige Sprachnachricht, was ihr zu eurer NBE mitbringen würdet, bis zum 12.

Einer der lustigsten Komiker Deutschlands ist zu Gast in der NBE: Friedemann Weise! Erkennen tut man Friedemann auf der Bühne meistens an der Gitarre, auf der er fröhliche, ernste, funkige und vor allem blödelige Lieder klimpert und dabei immer sehr schnieke angezogen ist (Stichwort Einstecktuch!). Wie schreibt man eigentlich witzige Songs? Welchen Effekt hatte Corona auf seine Arbeit? Wie schlimm ist es, wenn nicht so viele Leute vor der Bühne stehen? Es wird komödiantisch und musikalisch in dieser Folge, aber auch ernst und ehrlich, willkommen lieber Friedemann Karig - äh Weise in der NBE! Hosted on Acast.

Der selbsternannte Hobbykoch und Moderator Jochen Schropp hat schon so viel erlebt in seinem Leben, dass eine einzige Podcastfolge niemals reichen würde, um über all das zu sprechen. In dieser NBE will Nilz vor allem von Jochen wissen, was ihn beschäftigt, bewegt und antreibt und bringt einige Fragen zu seinem beruflichen Werdegang mit: Wie ist er auf die Schule von Paul McCartney gelandet? Warum hat der Schüleraustausch in den USA sein Leben verändert? Wie ist es, bei den unterschiedlichsten Fernsehshowformaten zu moderieren und auch selbst mitzumachen? Und wie entstand sein Buch "Queer As Fuck"? Jochen Schropp ist einer der liebsten und inspirierendsten Moderatoren im deutschen Privatfernsehen, deswegen heißen wir ihn ganz herzlich Willkommen in der Nilz Bokelberg Erfahrung! Hosted on Acast.

Malaquías 2:5, NBE.En Malaquías 2, Dios usa las imágenes de la infidelidad conyugal y el casamiento con personas que adoran a dioses extraños para comparar lo que estaban haciendo los israelitas con Dios, pues lo dejaban para ir en busca de placeres. Así escribió el profeta: "Jehová es testigo entre ti y la mujer de tu juventud, con la cual has sido desleal, aunque ella era tu compañera y la mujer de tu pacto" (Malaquías 2:14, RV95). La relación que Dios intenta establecer contigo es simbolizada por la relación íntima de una pareja, llena de gozo, entre el divino esposo y su bella e inmaculada esposa: su iglesia. Permítele restaurar esa relación de amor y perdón contigo.Se dan advertencias fuertes en el libro de Malaquías contra los sacerdotes que no dieron prioridad a Dios ni importancia a la herencia sacerdotal que habían recibido de la tribu de Leví (ver Números 25:10-13). Habían sido elegidos por Dios para el servicio sacerdotal por su fidelidad durante una grave crisis (ver Éxodo 32:25-29; 4CBA, p. 1149), pero, tristemente, corrompieron las leyes del sacerdocio y se convirtieron en un pésimo ejemplo para el resto del país.A lo largo de los veintiséis siglos que han transcurrido desde las palabras del profeta Malaquías, la historia de la humanidad ha podido ver cómo, vez tras vez, líderes y dirigentes religiosos de todas las denominaciones han caído en el escándalo, se han apartado de Dios y se han convertido en influencia devastadora para el creyente sencillo. Su afán por el poder, el dinero, la sexualidad desordenada, el engaño y las artimañas políticas ha sido una piedra de tropiezo para la fe de millones de personas. Por eso Malaquías sigue siendo tan pertinente hoy como lo fue para su público original."Los que confiaron en los falsos pastores tenían la Palabra de Dios para indagar por sí mismos, y descubrirán que Dios juzgará a todo hombre que haya tenido la verdad y se haya apartado de la luz porque exigía abnegación e implicaba llevar una cruz. Las rocas y las montañas no pueden ocultarlos de la indignación del que se sienta en el trono ni de la ira del Cordero" (MSV, p. 300).Escudriña la Palabra de Dios, para que puedas distinguir a los falsos de los verdaderos pastores. 

Anja Rützel, Hundemama, Podcasterin und Kolumnistin ist aus Nilz' Podcast-Universum nicht mehr wegzudenken. Es gibt kaum ein Thema, was noch nicht auf ihrem Schreibtisch gelegen hat: Ob es Kläranlagen, die Kulturgeschichte der Toilette, Royals aus der ganzen Welt, tatsächlich auch Finanz- und Business-Themen sind - vor allem aber Trash-TV. Darüber spricht sie nicht nur mit Nilz in dieser neuen Folge der NBE, sondern auch seit neuestem in ihrem Podcast Verbrechen am Fernsehen. Wie war es, König Charles III. zu treffen? Ist sie reich? Und als was würde sie mal beim Trash-TV arbeiten wollen? Kommt mit zu den verzauberten Orten vor und im Fernsehen zusammen mit Anja Rützel! Hosted on Acast.

Das große Finale ist da! Die NBE startet in die letzte Folge des Fanta-4-Monats und das steht ganz unter dem Thema: And.Ypsilon. Der All-Time-Favourite-Synthesizer-Man, die Greta Garbo der Fanta 4, der Mann, bei dem Schweigen nicht Gold, sondern Platin ist, wird auf eine ganz besondere Weise hier in der NBE gewürdigt. Aber bevor wir schon im Episodentext das große Fass aufmachen, hört selbst! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Michi Beck, der richtige Stuttgarter, die Hausmarke oder Dee Jot Hausmarke sowie vormals King Burger B (hier gedanklich gerne weitere coole Spitznamen aus den 90ern einfügen) ist als Dritter der Fanta Vier bei der NBE am Start! Über einige Phasen des Fanta-4-Songschreibens hat der ehemalige Bierausfahrwagenbeifahrer mit Nilz schon intensiv in Nilz' Songpoeten-Podcast gesprochen. Deswegen findet ihr in dieser Ausgabe des NBE-Fanta-Specials vor allem viele Jugend- und Heimat-Anekdoten inklusive Stuttgart-Vibes: Ist die Lässigkeit der 90er geblieben? Wie kam das Ausnahmetalent zum Scratchen und Rappen? Warum hat es damals mit dem Modebusiness nicht geklappt? Und was ist eigentlich aus den guten, alten Skits geworden? Hosted on Acast.

“Dass die Ehre guter Sprechgesangsmusik leider im Mittelmaß versinkt, weil's zu wenig davon gibt. Keine Angst, ich kümmer mich darum, zertrümmer diesen Trend sobald einer von euch Jüngern meinen Namen nennt” rappt Smudo im legendären “Le Smou” Song 1999 und Tatsache ist: Wegen der Fantas ist in den 90ern Hip-Hop in Deutschland wirklich nicht einfach nur noch Mittelmaß, sondern absolute Spitzenklasse. Die bringt der gebürtige Offenbacher und berühmteste Programmierer Deutschlands auch gleich mit in die NBE. Er und Nilz quatschen über Videospiele, die Teenagerzeit der Fantas und das Älterwerden. Wie schafft er es, neben der Band noch Hobbies wie Autorennen und Flugstunden zusammen mit seiner Family unter einen Hut zu bekommen? Wie fühlt sich fliegen an? Was hat Hip-Hop mit Punk gemeinsam? Und wie war das nochmal mit Smudo und Anna A.? Erfahrt es nur hier in der 2. Folge des NBE-Fanta-Monats! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Den Start in den Fanta 4 Monat macht Thomas D! Nilz' alter Weggefährte und bekanntester Hausmeister Deutschlands schaut zurück auf die bisherige Zeit mit den Fun- ‘tschuldigung Fantas. Man merkt, wie Thomas D richtig aufgeht in dem Gespräch, in dem der Ur-Ditzinger in vielen Anekdoten die Höhen und Tiefen der Bandgeschichte erzählt und sich mit Nilz an ihre gemeinsame Zeit bei viva, beim Songschreiben im Zug und in Berlin erinnert. Aber auch private Backstories, die das Internet noch nicht kennt, kommen hier zum Vorschein: Wie ist es, direkt an einer Tankstelle aufzuwachsen und ein Jahr in einem Wohnwagen zu leben? Was hat er als ausgebildeter Friseur damals mit Nilz Haaren angestellt? Warum lagen die Fantas zum Anfang ihrer Karriere fast in einem Rechtsstreit mit Marvel und was war die Idee, wie sie da wieder rauskommen?Nebenbei gibt es noch viele geheime Talente des Thomas D. zu entdecken, deswegen hört unbedingt rein in dieses tolle Gespräch zwischen den zwei ehemaligen Mars-Mitbewohnern, die hier in der NBE endlich wieder zueinander gefunden haben. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Fantastischer geht's nicht: Smudo, Michi, Thomas D und And.Ypsilon treffen im August auf die Nilz Bokelberg Erfahrung! Macht euch also bereit für einen ganzen Monat in der NBE zusammen mit den Fantastischen Vier! Ab diesen Donnerstag erscheint wöchentlich eine Folge mit einem Bandmitglied der Fantastischen Vier - überall da, wo es Podcasts gibt. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Er hält den Rekord für die bisher längste NBE-Folge: Friedemann Karig. Und deswegen ist es eine große Ehre, dass er ein zweites Mal in der NBE vorbeischaut! Nicht nur in seiner Arbeit als Autor ist in den letzten 1 ½ Jahren viel passiert: Die Welt steht Kopf. Es gibt eine Zeitenwende. Der Klimawandel ist in vollem Gang und die ersten Corona-Jahre liegen hinter uns. Friedemann war damals kurz vor dem Angriffskrieg in der Ukraine zu Gast in der NBE, deswegen wird es höchste Zeit, dass er und Nilz gemeinsam Bilanz ziehen und das im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes: In dieser Folge ziehen die beiden Schlagzeilen aus einer Schüssel und heraus kommen spannende Themen, die es wirklich noch nie in der NBE gegeben hat: Glauben sie an eine Mehrheit in einem Berliner Volksentscheid für einen führerscheinlosen Nahverkehr? Würden sie sich an ihren Ex-Freundinnen rächen? Was denken sie über autofreie Innenstädte in Europa? Was halten sie vom öffentlich-rechtlichen Rundfunk, der WM in Katar und der alten Rockstar-Romantik? Auf geht's in den Newsroom der NBE! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

“Ich habe noch 27 andere Dinge auf dem Zettel, deswegen werden wir das auf jeden Fall irgendwann noch vertiefen müssen.” sagte Nilz zum Abschluss der ersten Folge mit Fatoni im April 2021. Das lässt sich der Mike-Krüger-Fan natürlich nicht zweimal sagen! Und schwupps sitzt der Rapper mit einem Plattengeschenk als einer der ersten Gäste zum zweiten Mal am NBE-Wohnzimmertisch. Ja, und was ist in der Zwischenzeit passiert? Anhand der Fragen aus Fatonis neuer Single Wunderbare Welt hangeln sich die beiden durch die Ereignisse der letzten 2 Jahre: Welcher tolle Artist dominiert denn momentan die Charts? Welche Sau wird denn jetzt aktuell durchs Dorf gejagt? Kann ich Anti-Säure-Tabletten von der Steuer absetzen? Warum guck' ich auf mein Handy und ich weiß nicht mehr warum? Auch wenn Fatoni in dem Song rappt, dass das alles berechtigte und spannende Fragen sind und gerade keine Antwort haben möchte - in der NBE bleiben keine Fragen unbeantwortet und es entsteht ein einzigartiges, zweites Interview mit dem fabelhaften Fatoni!
