Podcasts about origin stories

Last month, Trinity Classical Academy sent forth its first class of graduating seniors. To mark this milestone, we're republishing an interview that first aired in 2020 on Owen Strachan's now-defunct podcast. At that time, Dr. Strachan was on the faculty at Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, and he invited Bob Thune to MBTS's Spurgeon Library to talk about the founding of Trinity Classical Academy. The founding and building of institutions is critical for gospel renewal, for societal health, and for the preservation and propagation of Christian faith. The story of TCA's success—from a fledgling startup school to a thriving educational institution—should inspire Christians to be dreamers and builders and doers.(0:00) Introductions: Bob Introduces Owen Introducing Bob(4:33) The Origin Story of Trinity Classical Academy(20:30) The Aim of Education: Formation(27:13) How Can You be a Catalyst in Your Context?

This week on The Real Escape Investing Podcast, we take a step back and ask: Why does Montreal's housing market function the way it does? From the seigneurial system and colonial land grants to rent control and zoning chaos, Terrie shares research from her upcoming book Squeezed—a deep dive into the political economy behind the city's housing contradictions. We trace the evolution of land use and asset classes in Montreal to explain today's quirks: tenant lifers, underpriced units, and the bureaucratic tangle that frustrates even seasoned landlords. If you've ever asked why is it like this?, this episode's for you.Terrie Schauer's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/terrieschauer/ Terrie Schauer's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/terrieschauer/ Check out all the other MPI Podcast Network Shows: https://masterpassiveincome.com/network

Before the Fed existed, J.P. Morgan literally had to bail out the banking system. That's when the U.S. realized depending on wealthy individuals to prevent financial collapse wasn't sustainable—and the Federal Reserve was born.In this episode, I (Jessie!) try to wrap my head around how the Fed went from an emergency backstop in 1913 to one of the most powerful institutions in the world. Jess helps me trace the Fed's messy glow-up: from freezing during the Great Depression to gaining real tools and some independence after World War II.Here's what we learned:The Fed wasn't created to run the economy—it was just supposed to stop bank panics.It failed hard in the 1930s, so Congress gave it more power and structure.During WWII, it worked closely with the Treasury, but inflation forced a breakup in 1951. That split gave us the independent Fed we have today—aka the one that's not supposed to take political orders.It turns out, Fed independence isn't just some finance nerd hill to die on—it's what helps protect the entire economy from political chaos.If you're like me and thought, “Wait, the Fed didn't always manage the economy?”—this episode is for you. And yes, we've got more Fed deep dives coming. Because wow… there's a lot more to unpack.------------------------------------------------

When journalist Cheng Lei was detained by Chinese state security agents, she thought would be freed within the week. Instead, she was held on absurd espionage charges for more than three years, much of that time spent in isolation.When Cheng Lei moved back to the country of her birth after the dramatic opening up of China to the world, she was a part of something exciting and historic.That all changed after Xi Jinping came to power, and Australia's relations with China deteriorated.In this first episode of a two-part series, Lei explains how eventually, she found herself detained on bogus espionage charges, and held for more than three years in a Chinese detention centre.For the first six months of her detention, Lei was isolated and alone except for the rotating female guards who stood over her 24 hours a day.Lei was not allowed to speak to these guards, she was forced to sit on the edge of her bed for 14 hours a day, she had to ask permission to do anything, she was not allowed to close her eyes and intermittently she was taken to a room, tied down in a chair and interrogated about allegedly sharing state secrets with foreigners.Lei learned how to ration books, she practised German vocabulary, wrote scripts in her head and thought of her two children to stay sane under torturous conditions.Further informationCheng Lei: A Memoir of Freedom is published by HarperCollins.Cheng Lei: My Story is a documentary made by Sky News Australia.

In this episode of Geek Freaks Headlines, we're breaking down the official reveal of 007: First Light, the upcoming James Bond video game from Hitman developers IO Interactive. We cover everything shown during the PlayStation State of Play, including the new take on Bond's origin, the gameplay mechanics that echo Hitman's best elements, and how this could be a testing ground for a reboot of the Bond franchise. Plus, we draw parallels to the success of Cal Kestis in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order and what a video game-first strategy might mean for James Bond's future across media.Timestamps and Topics:00:00:00 Introduction and Announcement of 007: First Light00:00:07 Bond's Origin Story: 26-Year-Old Agent from the Royal Navy00:00:12 Lennie James Rumored as Bond's Mentor Figure00:00:25 Gameplay Variety: Choose Your Bond Style00:00:31 Hitman Influence and IO Interactive's Approach00:00:34 Standalone Story: Not Based on Any Movie00:00:43 Testing Ground for Bond Reboot via Gaming00:00:55 Video Game Characters Leading to Bigger Franchises00:01:05 Coming to All Major Platforms, Including Switch 2Key Takeaways:007: First Light is a full origin story, showing Bond before his iconic status.IO Interactive brings their Hitman expertise, offering flexible mission playstyles.The game's Bond isn't tied to any actor or movie continuity.Lennie James may be featured in a key role, possibly as Bond's handler.This could serve as a soft launchpad for a new Bond continuity.The game will be available on all major platforms, including Switch 2.Similar to how Cal Kestis won over Star Wars fans, this game could build strong support for a new Bond.Quotes:"This is going to be an origin story for Bond… playing him as a 26-year-old agent just recruited into MI6.""You could be the Pierce Brosnan sneaky Bond, the Daniel Craig punch-you-in-the-face Bond, or the Sean Connery charm-your-way-in Bond.""To me, the Star Wars I want most is the one with Cal Kestis.

Discover the fascinating tale of Jesus' alleged grave in Japan, a story that intertwines history, myth, and cultural intrigue. This unique narrative suggests that during the so-called 'lost years' of Jesus, he traveled across Eurasia to Japan, where he studied with Buddhist masters. The legend continues with a dramatic twist: on the eve of his crucifixion, Jesus' brother Isuki took his place on the cross, allowing Jesus to escape back to Japan. There, he supposedly lived a peaceful life as a garlic farmer, married, and had children. This story is rooted in a small Japanese village, where two mounds are said to contain Jesus' body and a lock of his brother's hair. While this tale may seem far-fetched, it reflects the deep cultural exchanges and historical mysteries that continue to captivate imaginations worldwide.

This sermon explores the profound truth found in Genesis 1—that God speaks, and His word is powerful, personal, and good. Through the creation story, we see a God who doesn't merely think the universe into being but intentionally speaks life, light, and order into existence. The message emphasises that God's word is not distant or abstract but deeply relational, ultimately fulfilled in the person of Jesus Christ, the Word made flesh. As we open the Bible, we encounter God's presence and His desire to know and transform us. This sermon invites listeners to respond with faith, recognising that God's word still speaks, creates, and redeems today.

Podcast Notes Episode 467 Finding Balance Through the Enneagram, with Marilyn Vancil Host: Brian Miller, Executive Director of CAM Guests: Marilyn Vancil In this insightful conversation, Brian speaks with Marilyn Vancil, a leading Christian voice on the Enneagram and author of Self to Lose, Self to Find and Beyond the Enneagram. Marilyn shares how she first encountered the Enneagram and how it became a transformative tool for self-understanding and spiritual growth. Together, they explore the model's ability to uncover deep internal patterns, guide personal development, and reveal the adapted self we often cling to for survival. The discussion also delves into how each Enneagram type can grow by identifying personal patterns, breaking unhealthy cycles, and embracing authentic, God-given identity. The episode culminates in practical advice for coaches and individuals using the Enneagram in spiritual formation and personal transformation. Key Highlights Marilyn Vancil's Origin Story with the Enneagram: She was introduced to it via cassette tapes over 30 years ago and initially dismissed it, but quickly became captivated once she recognized herself in the type descriptions. Head, Heart, and Gut Centers: Brian and Marilyn discuss how understanding one's dominant center—and the one most repressed—can clarify personal tendencies and avenues for growth. Enneagram as a Tool for Transformation: Marilyn emphasizes that the Enneagram is not about labeling but about identifying patterns formed as survival mechanisms, which can be released in favor of authentic growth. Growth Through Arrows and Wings: Movement along the Enneagram's arrows (toward stress or security) and exploring wings helps individuals mature, especially when they begin accessing repressed emotional or instinctual parts of themselves. Practical Coaching Use: Marilyn outlines how she works with clients—starting with identifying type through self-reflection (not just assessments), then exploring internal narratives, strengths, and areas of stuckness. Takeaways The Enneagram is about patterns, not boxes: Your type reflects habitual survival strategies—not a fixed identity—which can be transformed through awareness and intention. True growth often involves reclaiming repressed parts: For many, this means learning to trust previously undervalued aspects like the gut or emotions. Coaching with the Enneagram should be relational and reflective: Tests can be helpful, but lasting insights come from dialogue, story, and pattern recognition. Growth involves risk and discomfort: Letting go of adapted identities can feel unsafe, but it opens the door to living as your true self. Wings and integration lines are growth maps: Exploring adjacent types (wings) or your integration direction (arrows) can unlock deeper understanding and resilience.

We've been gradually telling the "origin stories" of each team member in Frequent mIler. Today, we'll talk about how Tim came to join Frequent Miler.(00:52) - How did Tim get started in miles and points?(02:12) - Around 16 or 17, Tim and his brother planned out a series of roadtrips to try to see beyond their Midwestern home.(06:24) - To prepare for his honeymoon years later, Tim volunteered for medical research studies to raise money. His goal: take his new wife to the top 5 places she wanted to see. (New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, France, and Ireland.) (09:10) - After all that travel, Tim and his wife ended up with a bunch of United miles. He started to learn a bit about miles when he attempted to use those United miles to fly home for the holidays. (13:07) - Gradually, Tim started to learn more, starting with a Southwest credit card.(14:14) - When Tim started entering the wine making industry, he started traveling more for work and had the opportunity to join an expensed trip to South Africa if he could get himself there. As a tall guy, he was motivated to figure out a way to fly business class.(20:31) - Tim and his wife planned a trip to the Maldives, which got Tim even deeper into the hobby, especially when he sort of stumbled upon a type of mistake fare of sorts where his stay was earning points as though it were a paid stay. (23:12) - In 2021, Tim was starting to tire of working in the wine industry and was itching for something new. His wife was helping him brainstorm his dream job and he said "I'd love to write for Frequent Miler." About a week later, he saw the job posting for a new author at Frequent Miler. (27:34) - Nick and Greg shares their impression of Tim's application and interview.(33:18) - So what does Tim get most excited about now, in the points and miles hobby?Visit https://frequentmiler.com/subscribe to get updated on in-depth points and miles content like this, and don't forget to like and follow us on social media.Music Credit – Beach Walk by Unicorn Heads

We go way back to the beginning with the origins of the Bigfoot legend as described in Indigenous American oral history, and go forward in time to the stories and evidence presented during the modern era within the Emerald Triangle and beyond. Does Bigfoot really exist? Is it a protector figure, or is he a ferocious beast capable of violence... even murder? In order to understand Bigfoot's link to the world's superhighway of the finest quality ganja, we first have to understand the misunderstood beast itself. 

YOUR PERSONA & PRESENCE MAKE YOU UNFORGETTABLE As a podcaster, you spend countless hours perfecting your content. But are you making your show truly unforgettable? In this episode of Podcast Talent Coach, I reveal why your unique persona and presence are the most important assets you have. These are assets that artificial intelligence or your competition can never copy. When you infuse your content with your personal story and authentic self, you stand out from the endless sea of sameness. It's this magnetism that attracts loyal listeners and turns casual followers into raving fans for your brand. WHY YOUR STORY IS YOUR SUPERPOWER Let's be real: being slightly better or just another "shade of gray" won't set you apart in today's crowded landscape. It's not about being cheaper, having a slicker course, or even a more refined mic setup. What makes people choose you, over and over again, is your story—your origin, your journey, your perspective. Your competition might try to imitate your process, but they'll never replicate your lived experience and genuine voice. In this episode, I break down how icons like Howard Stern, Oprah Winfrey, and Zig Ziglar rose to fame by unapologetically sharing who they are and weaving personal stories into every lesson. STOP TEACHING—START ENTERTAINING Too many podcasters get caught up in cramming more information into each episode. Here's the truth: listeners crave entertainment. Even when they're tuning in to learn, it's the stories and emotions you invoke that keep them coming back. Just think about your favorite teacher—the one who brought lessons to life, not the monotone professor who put the class to sleep. In this episode, I show you how to wrap your valuable content in relatable, audience-focused stories. When you stir emotion and invite your audience into your world, you don't just give them information—you give them an unforgettable experience. DEFINE YOUR BRAND WITH INTENTION Your brand isn't an accident—it's a choice. I walk you through how to identify four to six adjectives that define your podcast persona and ensure every episode supports those characteristics. Are you insightful, quirky, bold, or caring? Structure your content and stories to reinforce these brand traits with consistency and confidence. When you intentionally choose the characteristics your show stands for, you foster trust and recognition in your niche. Just like Gary Vaynerchuk and Mel Robbins attract their tribes with distinct personas, you can create a magnetic brand by sharing your story your way. TAKE THE NEXT STEP TO GREATNESS If you ever wonder why your audience isn't growing, your engagement is flat, or you're not making money with your podcast, the answer is likely simple: you haven't leaned into your story and presence enough. Now is the time to stand out by being more authentic, more entertaining, and more YOU.

Bootlegging whiskey, acid tests, grass, and songs about murder. The origins of the Grateful Dead are fascinating and not what most people think. Born out of the tradition of “old, weird America”; bluegrass, jug band music and deadly folk tales, the Grateful Dead, as young adults, were into some strange stuff and we are all better for it. The band would go on to create their very own “new, weird America” due in part to the cultural impact they would have over their near 40-year career. But their connection to the traditional music that spawned them was due in large part to their harmonica player, singer, and keyboardist, Ron “Pigpen” McKernan, who lived “the life” so authentically that he died at the age of just 27. This is the Grateful Dead origin story and the Ballad of Pigpen. To view the full list of contributors, see the show notes at ⁠www.disgracelandpod.com⁠.
