    Banned In Sparta From Singer Songwriter Robin Batteau 3,000 Year Old Songs Set Inside Right Now

    Banned In Sparta”- Collaborative Album with Classical Greek Poets and Modern Folk Singers Helmed by Robin BatteauRobin Batteau's “Banned in Sparta” is a collaborative album of songs based on poems by Classical Greek poets and recorded by a number of friends Tom Paxton, Eric Andersen, Livingston and Kate Taylor, Matt Nakoa, Robin Lane, 2-time Tony winning actor James Naughton and his gifted children Keira and Greg, plus Carolyn Hester.  Robin was inspired by an Ancient Greek History class he took when he returned to Harvard during the Pandemic to finish a degree he started in the 1960s. Robin earned the World Record of taking a 50-year break (between 1970 to 2021) to return to Harvard and finish his degree in 2022.   “Banned In Sparta” focuses almost entirely on poets from Ancient Greece between 700 and 400 BC.  One poet, Gaius Valerius Catullus (84 – 54 BC), as smitten with the ghost of Sappho as Robin or Alcaeus, is from Rome during Julius Caesar's reign, for whom Eric Andersen performs “Cross (of Gold),” an ode to interlaced and conflicted feelings, “Odi et Amo"— I hate and I love.The title “Banned in Sparta” finds its name from Archilochus, the Bob Dylan of the 7th century B.C., a warrior-poet so irreverent he was “Banned in Sparta.”  James Naughton sings the song “Archilochus Re-Deemed (I Am a Servant of the Lord God of War).” Kate Taylor performs “Telesilla's On the Wall,” from the female poet Telesilla, who led her fellow women warriors to victory against those same renowned Spartans. “The Greek Lyric poets performed live, and were the stars of their day,” says Robin. “They were singer/songwriters, they played the lyre (hence "Lyric") and danced around the stage like Tom Paxton and Taylor Swift.”Robin, who studied Ancient Greece and Integrative Biology at Harvard, found that most of what was left of the poems were fragments and myth, “So I mosaic-ed songs to reflect their expressions and intentions— who they were, and are to me.”         A range of female poets contributed to the lyrical history of Greece including Corrina, whose “In Her Loving Arms” is sung by Carolyn Hester, and Praxilla's “The Most Beautiful Thing in the World,” a hymn to Adonis, sung by Keira Naughton.  Sappho's writing inspires “Terra Cotta Heart,” sung by Robin Lane.  Livingston Taylor sings “My Sappho, Sweetly Smiling” from the smitten neighbor and rival Alcaeus. The fun and frolicking “Shake your Hair (You Thracian Filly),” sung by Tom Paxton. Pianist and folk singer Matt Nakoa offers a Bruce Hornsby-like treatment for Simonides of Ceos's “Theatre of Memory (Man of Gold).”    Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

    8. Author: Victor Davis Hanson. Title: *The Dying Citizen: How Progressive Elites, Tribalism, and Globalization Are Destroying the Idea of America*. This final excerpt examines how the COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the erosion of citizenship. Hanson argues that the pandemic empowered the unelected—symbolized by Dr. Anthony Fauci—to shutter small businesses while favoring big corporations like Walmart. He claims the "Zoom culture" allowed elites to remain safe and compensated while the working class faced the virus. Additionally, Hanson discusses the globalization of the crisis, noting how international figures initially protected China's narrative regarding the Wuhan lab. He concludes that the pandemic response demonstrated a profound failure of "the science" and a massive expansion of bureaucratic control. (8)1980 LA

    Retired emergency department nurse Amy Dinaburg discusses her article "Lowercase PTSD: Why emergency staff are still hypervigilant." Amy reflects on the relentless pressure of the COVID-19 pandemic where nurses were forced to override their nervous systems to keep patients alive. She describes the concept of "Lowercase PTSD" as the result of prolonged exposure to death and uncertainty rather than a single catastrophic event. The conversation highlights how the "hero" narrative often masked a survival mode that many staff are still struggling to turn off years later. Amy explains that healing requires small recalibrations, like consciously softening the body and allowing rest without earning it, to move from unconscious reactivity back to feeling fully alive.

    What do Liberals, including Doug Ford, really think about Iran?

    One answer is about the Iranian people — especially the Persians who fled the ayatollahs and built new lives in Canada. Toronto and Vancouver are full of them. Many came here after the Islamic Revolution turned a modernizing U.S. ally into a brutal theocracy. Most are secular. Most despise the regime. Most dream of seeing their country free again. That Iran is worth sympathizing with. The other answer is about the regime. The Islamic Republic is not just another dictatorship. It is a fascist theocracy built on anti-Americanism, anti-Israel hatred, terrorism and religious fanaticism. It arms proxies like Hamas and Hezbollah. It targets civilians on purpose. It wants nuclear weapons. And unlike secular tyrannies, it is not constrained by ordinary ideas of deterrence or mutually assured destruction. That regime is now on everyone's mind as Israel and the United States strike Iranian military assets, missiles and nuclear facilities. But Iran's response is never limited to the battlefield. It lashes out asymmetrically — through terrorism, proxies, intimidation and soft targets. That includes the West. Jewish institutions in Europe and North America have been attacked. Synagogues in Canada have been shot at. A U.S. consulate was targeted. And yet even now, Canada's political class cannot bring itself to speak clearly about what Iran is — or what it is doing here. Take Mark Carney. It has now come out that a Canadian military installation was attacked by Iran two weeks ago. Thankfully, no Canadians were hurt. But Carney kept it quiet. And when finally asked about it, his answer was not outrage, not retaliation, not even a serious condemnation. His answer was that Canada would not take part in “offensive actions.” Offensive actions? Canada was attacked. Retaliating against an attack is not “offensive.” Keeping it secret and then scolding reporters for asking about it is not leadership. It is weakness. And Carney is not alone. Gregor Robertson, now a federal Liberal, managed to invoke the war with Iran not to condemn terrorism, not to denounce the regime, but to explain away Canada's housing crisis. Apparently Iran is now to blame for home prices too. It was absurd. It made no sense. But it revealed something important: to these people, Iran is not chiefly a terror state. It is a political talking point, a prop to excuse their domestic failures. Evan Solomon was no better. More vague talking points. More mush. More attempts to fold Iran into a generic Liberal message about affordability and “plans.” Not a word of seriousness about the regime itself, or the fact that Iran has agents operating in Canada. Then there is Doug Ford. Back in 2018, Ford said he would not tolerate Al-Quds Day in Ontario — the annual hate march created by the ayatollahs to glorify the destruction of Israel and spread anti-Jewish hatred in the West. And yet for eight years, he tolerated it. Only now, on the eve of this year's march, did Ford suddenly announce he was seeking an injunction to stop it. Not months ago. Not weeks ago. Not even a few days ago. The day before. It was completely unserious. Any court application launched at the last minute was almost certain to fail on timing alone. Ford knew about these annual marches for years. He did nothing. And then, with cameras rolling and the event already imminent, he decided to perform toughness. The police are unserious. The Ontario government is unserious. The federal government is unserious. And in a country this full of Iranian regime sympathizers and agents, that is becoming dangerous. Canada now has leaders who cannot even say plainly that Iran is the world's leading state sponsor of terrorism, that it has attacked Canadians, and that its supporters openly organize in this country. That is what they really think about Iran. They think it can be managed. Delayed. Spun. Used. Soft-pedalled. Folded into some other message. They do not treat it as the threat it is. And that may be the most dangerous thing of all. GUEST: Conservative MP Garnett Genuis joins the show to discuss the 84,000 jobs lost in Canada in February and what that says about the country's failing economy.

    We've spoken with many guests about clinical and technological trends impacting healthcare providers, but less so about the trends on the business side of practicing medicine.  So on this episode, we're going to make up for that by spending our time with Dr. Alexander Vaccaro, an influential spine surgeon and president of one of the largest musculoskeletal practices in the U.S. -- Rothman Orthopaedic Institute -- which treats patients at over 40 locations in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York and Florida. While Dr. Vaccaro understands the desire for financial stability that's increasingly driving young physicians into the arms of hospital systems, he worries about what's being lost with the resulting decline in the number of independent practices.  “If you didn't have private practice advocating for the doctor, the insurance companies would bully the healthcare profession.” Join Raise the Line host Michael Carrese for a candid and lively conversation that also covers: How physician autonomy and entrepreneurship can drive innovation; The economic and policy forces reshaping private practice medicine; The role of research partnerships between private practices and universities.

    In this explosive episode of, "The Ultimate Assist", John Stockton and Ken Ruettgers sit down with investigative author John Leake for a wide-ranging and controversial conversation about science, power, and the narratives that shape public belief.From the origins of vaccines to the policies surrounding Covid-19, Leake argues that modern institutions have replaced open scientific inquiry with authority, censorship, and fear. The discussion explores how public health decisions are made, why dissenting voices are often marginalized, and whether the public has been given the full story behind some of the most consequential medical decisions in recent history.Leake also examines the historical roots of vaccination, the influence of powerful industrial complexes in modern medicine, and the broader cultural forces he calls “mind viruses”—ideas that spread through society with religious intensity while avoiding rigorous scrutiny.The episode closes with a look at unresolved global questions—from the Epstein scandal to the origins of SARS-CoV-2—and why some investigations may never fully see the light of day.Whether you agree or disagree, this conversation challenges listeners to ask a deeper question:Are we truly following science… or simply trusting authority?Support the show

    Step out your front door and feast on images of the natural world that when studied provide us with such great joy and wonder that our spirits rise and all of our self-doubts and social anxiety melt away. Yet, since the pandemic when we became inert and homebound and relied on our small screens for connection.  The lag from that moment, coupled with the many choices for entertainment in-home and the fear of confrontation with others about our partisan divide, make the safe choice the one many of us choose.  And, of course, that results in the loneliness epidemic that a past Surgeon General said was a major health problem in the country.  How do we cure it?  Referring to the opening sentence in this podcast description, step out your front door and watch and appreciate birds, smell the ocean air, lose yourself in the wonders that abound.  Feel small.  Lose a sense of time.  Get the chills.  To discuss all of this with us is Val Walker, author of her newest book, “Healing Through Wonder: How Aw Restores Us After Trauma and Loss.”

    Years before the world ever heard of COVID-19, Jeffrey Epstein was quietly helping architect a massive financial network for Bill Gates and JPMorgan centered around pandemics. Sayer Ji's newly published investigation dives into the latest DOJ batch of Epstein files and reveals a terrifying 20-year timeline – and that global health institutions were treating pandemics as a highly profitable business model long before the crisis actually arrived. “Internal JPMorgan emails from 2011 show Jeffrey Epstein advising the bank's most senior executives on how to pitch a Gates-anchored donor-advised fund,” writes Ji, “insisting the presentation include the phrase “additional money for vaccines” and directing the creation of an “offshore arm — especially for vaccines.” Sayer Ji is an independent investigative journalist and founder of https://GreenMedInfo.com.

    We've had many conversations on Raise the Line about the challenges of health communication in today's world of information overload, but none of our guests have the kind of expertise Dr. Tesfa Alexander has acquired in a career that has taken him from Madison Avenue to the halls of government and academia. From guiding tobacco education research at the FDA to leading public health initiatives at MITRE, Dr. Alexander has developed a deep understanding of the science and strategy behind effective health communication. “Successful campaigns keep the long game in mind where you want to develop a lasting relationship with your target audience,” he tells host Lindsey Smith. That relationship needs to be built on understanding culture, beliefs, priorities and daily realities, and only then can you develop messaging that will resonate, he explains. Dr. Alexander also believes these relationships can be leveraged to help people sort out facts from misleading or inaccurate claims. “I strongly recommend shifting our focus from combating misinformation head on, and instead working with the communities who we are seeking to serve.” This fascinating look at communication science also covers: How stories drive belief; The importance of working with community partners who are trusted messengers;  The power of audience segmentation. Tune in as Dr. Alexander unpacks what it takes to influence beliefs, and ultimately behaviors, in an era defined by misinformation and institutional mistrust.

    In this episode of Acta Non Verba, Marcus Aurelius Anderson sits down with Doug Bopst, an award-winning personal trainer, author, and host of The Adversity Advantage podcast. Doug shares his powerful transformation from convicted felon and drug addict to recovery advocate and mindset coach. He also discusses how to navigate life's challenges without self-destructing, the dangers of external validation, and why taking responsibility during hard times builds the resilience needed for future success. This raw conversation explores addiction recovery, the pandemic's impact, finding fulfillment beyond money, and how adversity reveals who we truly are. Episode Highlights [2:24]- The biggest misconception about adversity: Doug explains why people believe pain will last forever and how tunnel vision during hard times prevents us from seeing the blessing until we're through it. [25:20] - From jail cell to transformation: Doug recounts his arrest at 20 years old with half a pound of marijuana, his cold turkey detox in jail, and how a cellmate's tough love conversation changed his entire life trajectory. [9:53] - The external validation trap: Why achieving success markers like YouTube plaques doesn't bring lasting happiness, and how chasing external validation becomes a subtle addiction that mentally imprisons us. [39:27] - Pandemic adversity lessons: How the uncertainty of COVID-19 tested Doug's recovery blueprint and proved he could get through anything by controlling what was controllable without self-destructing. Doug Bopst is an award-winning personal trainer, bestselling author of three books, and host of The Adversity Advantage podcast. A former convicted felon and drug addict, Doug spent time in jail in 2008 for possession with intent to sell. While incarcerated, he kicked his addiction, transformed his life, and has been in recovery ever since. Now he's on a crusade to inspire others to overcome adversity and become the best version of themselves, showing that how you respond during hard times determines your future.

    What does the future of market farming look like in the era of digital sales? Our guests this week, Amelia Ihlo of Rooted Farmers and Jill Shea of the Connecticut Flower Collective had the bright idea to take the 35th anniversary of Growing for Market Magazine as an opportunity to step back and look at the last 35 years of market farming, and think about what is going to shape the next 35 years. As we discuss, the number of farms is going down every day, lots of food is wasted before it even makes it off the farm, and costs are up on pretty much everything. On the other hand, the widespread adoption of digital sales during the COVID-19 Pandemic helped many farms find new markets. In this interview we explore how online sales are continuing to evolve for farmers, and some best practices for increasing sales and reducing friction with customers. Listen and learn how you can make the most of digital sales for your own farm!
