On this week's episode of Grilling JR, Jim Ross, the Voice of Wrestling, and host Conrad Thompson take listeners ringside for two classic Brisco family wrestling showcases, highlighting the technical mastery and territorial-era storytelling that defined professional wrestling at its peak. One featured bout takes us back to October 6, 1973, when Danny Hodge defended the NWA World Junior Heavyweight Championship against Jerry Brisco at the Bayfront Center in St. Petersburg, Florida. Documented as part of Championship Wrestling From Florida, the match showcases Hodge's dominance as champion against a rising Jerry Brisco, already making waves alongside his brother Jack Brisco in the territory. With JR's expert commentary and historical insight, this episode is a masterclass in old-school wrestling storytelling on Grilling JR.

Embracing the “Open” in Open Nesting (Season 6 | Episode 222) with Joy Rose (Season 6 | Episode 222) This week on the Open Nesters podcast, my co-host Amir and I had the absolute pleasure of revisiting a truly boundary-breaking conversation with the incredible Joy Rose. As an artist, activist, and the visionary founder of the Museum of Motherhood, Joy is a master at helping us deconstruct the heavy labels we carry and reclaim the narrative of our own lives. If you are currently navigating your own “Act Three,” this discussion is essential listening for finding your vitality and flipping the script on aging. We dove deep into the complex world of motherhood —to explore how this role often consumes our identity for decades. Joy shares the raw, honest truth about the “redundancy” many of us feel when our children grow older. It can be an almost impossible shift to move from the physical and emotional all-consumption of active parenting to a life where that role is no longer necessary in the same way. Joy's personal journey is a masterclass in finding the “self” at the center of the roles projected onto us. As her own four children have grown into their late twenties and thirties, she has had to learn the difficult art of adjustment, using tools like cultivating her own passions and finding serenity through spiritual programs like Al-Anon. One of the most striking parts of our talk was Joy's take on modern relationships and her rejection of traditional marriage. She spoke beautifully about seeking “great love”—the kind of love that pushes you out of your comfort zone and requires you to show up with integrity and consciousness. It was so illuminating to hear how she and her partner, despite being on opposite ends of the political spectrum, find deep connection through simple kindness and shared values. For those of you looking to explore these themes further, Joy is continuing her work by launching online classes through the Museum of Motherhood website. She encourages everyone, especially “women of a certain age,” to be brave, be expansive, and stop repeating patterns that no longer serve them. Whether it’s through art, study, or simply trying to live on your own, there are so many ways to “show up” for yourself in this new stage of life. We are so grateful to Joy for her wisdom and for helping us “unlabel” the judgments we often place on ourselves and others. As we move forward, I hope you'll join us in witnessing the growth of our families and ourselves with open hearts and fewer expectations.

Edouardo Jordan's ascent to the top of the Seattle culinary world was a long journey that started in his childhood St. Petersburg kitchen helping his mother, when given the choice of that or cleaning his room.  Edouardo takes us through his high school, college and post college pursuits, one of which was working with the Tampa Bay Devil Rays to becoming a food blogger,  He then decided he could do better than many of the restaurants he reviewed, and he pursued his interest in cooking at the Le Cordon Bleu (Orlando Culinary Academy) and got his first kitchen job in Tampa, Florida.  He worked his way from server to the line, working for Thomas Keller at The French Laundry and Per Se, then to Sitka & Sprice in Seattle. With all of that under his belt, he had the chops to open his own restaurant, Salare, in Seattle at the age of 35.  That platform, showcasing his talent to the world, led to Food and Wine choosing him as Best New Chef in 2016.  Shortly thereafter, Jordan opened JuneBaby, his widely acclaimed ode to Southern cooking.  He generated so much attention that the following year he sounded a louder gong by bringing home TWO James Beard Foundation Awards to Seattle.  One for Best Chef Northwest, and the other for Best New Restaurant nationwide.  He was the first African-American ever to win that award.  Edouardo was the baby of the Seattle culinary scene and beyond.   In 2019, Time Magazine named him one of the USA's 100 Most Influential People.    Then, as Edouardo tells it, all of that was erased in one day.  In June of 2021, The Seattle Times published a story featuring multiple accusations of sexual abuse in the workplace by Jordan. As Jordan points out in his recent YouTube Series chronicling his side this story, The newspaper gave him very little time to respond before it was published, and what happened from then on was something unimaginable -- a long, incredibly hard and frustrating time for Chef Jordan.  He found roadblocks everywhere, especially in the media, where he couldn't tell his side of the story.  Over four years later, Jordan is clawing his way back into the kitchen with the business he started years ago, thefoodwithroots.com.   Edouardo joins us on the podcast to talk about his career's rise, its crash, and how he's been emotionally and socially picking up the pieces in recent years, to what he's doing now in work and life, and how he's found balance and answers since the upheaval.   Right at the Fork is made possible by: Zupan's Markets: www.zupans.com  RingSide SteakHouse: www.RingSideSteakhouse.com  Portland Food Adventures: www.PortlandFoodAdventures.com

Guest: Ronald White. Returning to duty, Chamberlain led a frontal assault at Petersburg in 1864, where he suffered a catastrophic wound through the hips that surgeons deemed fatal. Believing he was dying, he wrote a farewell letter to Fanny, yet miraculously survived due to his brother Tom's help and sheer will. Later, at the Battle of Five Forks, he defended General Warren against General Sheridan's dismissal. At the war's end, Chamberlain was selected to receive the Confederate surrender at Appomattox. In a controversial but defining gesture, he ordered a marching salute to honor the courage of the defeated Southern soldiers.1863 GETTYSBURG

It's been a year since catastrophic fires tore through Los Angeles. For those who lived through them, the impacts are still being felt. Rebuilding in the aftermath of more frequent and severe fossil-fueled disasters is becoming a big business. Enter the disaster economy, powered by a grab bag of dedicated people helping communities rebuild, and by contractors who may overpromise, underdeliver, and profit from tragedy. Caught in the middle are the survivors, often left to navigate red tape, scams, and soaring costs just to rebuild their lives.

The city of St. Petersburg held great significance to the Russian Empire when Peter the Great first built the city in 1703. It was intended to be Russia's "window to the West" and usher in Russia's place as a modern European power. It also replaced Moscow as the capital of the growing empire that stretched across two continents. It was also the site of the Russian Revolution, when the Bolsheviks led by Vladimir Lenin seized power in 1917. Subsequently the city was renamed Leningrad in honor of the founder of the Soviet Union.  During World War II (1939-1945), the city would play a critical role as an unconquerable fortress city that withstood years of siege with the explicit intention of starving its inhabitants into complete submission to Nazi Germany's war aims. The epic story of this saga is the subject of Prit Buttar's To Besiege a City: Leningrad 1941-42 (Osprey Publishing, 2023). Relying upon extensive research into both Soviet and German sources, Prit Buttar chronicles the first few years of the siege in great detail. Prit Buttar is the author of ten critically acclaimed books. His most recent publication was Meat Grinder: The Battles for the Rzhev Salient, 1942–43 (Osprey, 2022). Prit originally studied medicine at Oxford and London before joining the British Army as a doctor. He latterly worked as a General Practitioner for several years. He now writes exclusively from his home in rural Scotland where he can also indulge his hobbies for wildlife and astro photography. Learn more about your ad choices.

The fate of the global economy hangs in the balance as James Bond is thrust into a race against time to recover the keys to a devastating satellite weapon. From the dizzying heights of the Verzasca Dam to the gritty streets of St. Petersburg, Bond must face a ghost from his past and a syndicate of lethal traitors. Guided by the new M and armed with Q's latest gadgets, he must outmaneuver the bone-crushing thighs of Xenia Onatopp. From the explosive train wrecks to the final showdown in the Cuban jungle, it's a desperate battle to stop the Janus syndicate from resetting the world's clock.

In this episode of Super Terrific Happy Hour, Steph and I return with our customary blend of easy-going banter coupled with a shameless plug and a sobering assessment of the global financial landscape. What begins with complaints about the cold weather and Seinfeld callbacks, as well as our upcoming live event in St. Petersburg, quickly turns into a candid examination of sovereign refinancing risks, leveraged corporate balance sheets, and a Treasury market increasingly supported not by central banks but by hedge funds and private foreign buyers. As short-term debt dependence grows and refinancing waves collide across governments, corporates, and AI-driven capex, we explain why we continue to sleep better owning gold—and why this moment feels less like a trade than long-term insurance for an unstable monetary age. Every episode of the Grant Williams podcast, including This Week In Doom, The End Game, The Super Terrific Happy Hour, The Narrative Game, Kaos Theory, Shifts Happen and The Hundred Year Pivot, is available to Copper, Silver and Gold Tier subscribers at my website www.Grant-Williams.com.  Copper Tier subscribers get access to all podcasts, while members of the Silver Tier get both the podcasts and my monthly newsletter, Things That Make You Go Hmmm… Gold Tier subscribers have access to my new series of in-depth video conversations, About Time.

In the summer of 2000 while in labor with her daughter, Krista's heart stopped for eight minutes. Her soul transitioned to the afterlife where she experienced indescribable love, had all her life's questions answered, encountered spirit beings, and other beings who gave her the choice to return with the condition of sharing what she'd learned there with others. Using the knowledge she was given, Krista created Twelve Principles, which helped her reconnect with the essence of who she was in the afterlife, and embody it here, in this life. They enabled her to live as the love she knew herself to be. Her own transformation affected all those around her as well. Krista shares the Twelve Principles For Daily Living which are what she practices to realign herself with the divine love she was in the afterlife. When practiced on a daily basis, they truly have the potential to create a heaven on earth.BioKrista Gorman is a Physician Assistant who, only three weeks after graduating from her PA training program, suffered cardiopulmonary arrest and died while in labor with her daughter. During the eight minutes she was without a detectable heartbeat, her consciousness transitioned into what we call the afterlife, where she underwent a profound reconnection with a most Divine love that she experienced as the Universe.

This week's podcast kicks off with the 2003 murder case of a North Korean man in St. Petersburg, previously known as the “criminal capital” of Russia, and the unanswered questions surrounding his brutal death at the hands of a neo-Nazi group. NK News data correspondent Anton Sokolin then discusses North Korea's reaction to Russian Ambassador Alexander Matsegora's sudden death in Pyongyang, including leader Kim Jong Un's appearance at the diplomat's memorial service. Finally, Sokolin talks about the monthslong deployment of North Korean soldiers to Russia's Kursk region, where they were tasked with clearing explosives left by Ukrainian troops. The DPRK troops reportedly suffered nine fatalities during the deployment, with Kim heralding them for performing their duties with valor. About the podcast: The North Korea News Podcast is a weekly podcast hosted by Jacco Zwetsloot exclusively for NK News, covering all things DPRK — from news to extended interviews with leading experts and analysts in the field, along with insights from our very own journalists.

Leave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy!Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1529"I think the biggest psychological crime is people fear running outta money instead of fear of wasting their life." - Bill PerkinsBill Perkins watched busloads of senior citizens arrive in St. Petersburg, Russia. Not a single person climbed the 115 steps to see the breathtaking view from the church balcony. They had the money for the trip, the time to travel, but their bodies wouldn't cooperate anymore. That moment crystallized everything he'd been thinking about how we get life backwards. We treat money like it's the goal when it's actually just a tool, one that loses effectiveness as our bodies and minds decline. Your body peaks at 33. After that, it's plateau and decline. Those hiking trips, those physical adventures, those experiences that require energy and health—they have expiration dates we refuse to acknowledge. We tell ourselves we'll do them later, when we're more financially secure, but later means weaker knees, less stamina, different limitations.Perkins talks about life in buckets, periods you'll never get back. Your twenties happen once. The years with small children happen once. Each phase has experiences designed for it, and if you miss them, they interfere with each other or disappear entirely. He uses a Tetris metaphor: imagine standing in heaven with God, throwing every experience you want into a bucket. Hiking, building businesses, raising kids, traveling to places that require climbing, all of it. God says you can have everything, you just have to get the order right. That's the game. That's what most people get catastrophically wrong. They're so afraid of judgment, so terrified of running out of money that they waste the periods of life when those experiences would mean the most, when their bodies could actually do them. This isn't about reckless spending. It's about understanding that your ability to convert money into fulfilling experiences decays over time, and no amount of savings can buy back the body you had at 33.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Rabbi Jacobson will discuss the following topics: What is unique about the month of Kislev, and what lessons does it offer us? Yud Tes Kislev Why is this day the Rosh Hashana of Chassidus? Why was Chassidus revealed in the later generations? What is the difference between “before Petersburg” and “after Petersburg”? What do we learn from this day? Why was there a heavenly accusation against the Alter Rebbe for teaching Chassidus? Should we be afraid to say a dvar torah at the Shabbos table lest the heavenly court indict us? How do we explain the Alter Rebbe's analogy of Chassidus being like the most precious crown jewel being crushed to help save the life of the royal prince? How do you compare the Alter Rebbe's spreading of Chassidus to other Kabbalists who taught Penimiyus HaTorah? Why did they not face resistance? Is Chassidus based on the Zohar and Kabbalah or is something entirely different? Is learning the Tanya compared to having a personal yechidus with the Alter Rebbe? What “second half” is necessary to understand Tanya? Can you appreciate Tanya without song? How did the Alter Rebbe deliver his teachings to us? What is a farbrengen and where did it originate from? What's the difference between a maamar and a sicha? What was the main teaching of the Maggid of Mezritch? What is a black Marie chariot and why was it sent for the alter rebbe? How did the Alter Rebbe win his court case; what evidence did he produce to exonerate himself? What lessons do we learn from living with the times, with this week's Torah parsha? What is the inside story of the tribes' jealousy of Joseph, and of Joseph's fall and rise? What was the significance of Joseph's dreams that he will rule over his brothers? How could the righteous tribes sell their brother into slavery? Vayeishev

Episode 3 of the Seven Summits Series takes us to the tallest point in Europe, Mount Elbrus. With first ascents on each of the two summits, both occurring in the 1800s, Elbrus' history is both lengthy and, at times, entertaining. Adrian and Sam dive into the details of a Mount Elbrus expedition, which includes so much more than just climbing. While Elbrus is well positioned for a strike mission type attempt due to its relatively low altitude (as far as high altitude goes) and significant on-mountain infrastructure, climbing Elbrus should most certainly include time exploring Russia. - Visiting both St. Petersburg and Moscow during your trip adds time, but they are crucial parts of the experience, and one city can be visited before and the other after you climb. - Elbrus is unique in the Seven Summits world in that it has significant infrastructure, including lift systems that are part of a ski area and snow cats that can take climbers as far as ~90% of the way to the top. Find the style of climb that suits you and gets you excited!- Like most of the Seven Summits, Elbrus can experience challenging weather, and while the route is often considered "straightforward" because Snowcats create a road,  hazards such as crevasses should not be underestimated. Follow our podcast on Instagram @duffelshufflepodcast where you can learn more about us and our guests.

Ep 190 w/ Dave Seminara - Inside South Africa, Lesotho & Eswatini: Dave's Ultimate African Adventure GuideIn this week's episode, I sit down once again with writer, journalist, YouTuber and seasoned traveller Dave Seminara, who has just returned from an epic journey across South Africa, Eswatini and Lesotho. This conversation dives deep into one of the most fascinating regions on the planet, and Dave takes us right into the heart of it—through national parks, vibrant townships, mountain kingdoms and some unforgettable encounters along the way.We start in Cape Town, where Dave shares his experience navigating one of the world's most spectacular cities, from its dramatic geography and unpredictable weather to the realities of inequality and the history woven into its suburbs. He takes us for a raw and honest look at the Cape Flats, where he met community leaders working to interrupt gang violence and support local youth. It's eye-opening, powerful and adds an important layer to any understanding of South Africa.From there, Dave describes the magic of going on safari for the first time, including what it's like to stay on a restored luxury train in Kruger National Park, the thrill of spotting wildlife up close, and why safari is both the most rewarding and unpredictable style of travel. He shares practical tips on budget, expectations and what to do when your game drive luck runs cold. We also talk about the difference between national parks and private game reserves, the food (which sounds absolutely unbelievable), and the guides who bring the whole experience to life.Dave then takes us into the Drakensberg Mountains for hikes, ancient Bushmen rock art and one of the most unique lodge stays he's ever experienced. And of course, we cross borders into Eswatini and Lesotho, exploring the logistics, the culture and why both mini-kingdoms are absolutely worth adding to any Southern Africa itinerary.This episode is packed with insights for anyone dreaming of Africa, planning a first visit or simply curious about what travel looks like beyond the iconic highlights. Dave brings his humour, honesty and deep curiosity, and by the end you'll understand why this trip made him rethink his entire travel focus.If you enjoy the episode, please rate and review the podcast on your favourite app and subscribe on YouTube—every bit of support helps the show grow.

Wearing an armoured breastplate, clasping a silver cross and seizing an Army spontoon, 31 year old Elizabeth Petrovna appeared at the HQ of the elite Preobrazhensky Regiment guards in St. Petersburg on 25th November, 1741 - intent on over-throwing Tzar Ivan VI (a baby), and seizing the Russian throne for herself. Although she was the daughter of Peter The Great, she was also illegitimate, and overlooked in the line of succession. But her coup was bloodless, and she oversaw a productive cultural period for the dynasty - including her role in selecting Catherine The Great. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly recall Elizabeth's fondness for food, fashion and f***ing; posit that her husband Alexis Razumovsky was a bit like Dolly Parton's beau Carl Dean; and explain why, if you're staging a coup, you should always slit your drums… Further Reading: • ‘Elizabeth I, Empress of All Russia' (Unofficial Royalty, 2018): http://www.unofficialroyalty.com/empress-elizabeth-i-of-russia/ • ‘Decadent Facts About Empress Elizabeth Of Russia, The Last Romanov' (Factinate): https://www.factinate.com/people/empress-elizabeth/ • ‘St Petersburg Palaces of the Romanovs' (RT, 2021): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a3LRMZfmAsU This episode was first aired in 2021 Love the show?

The Mortal Wound at Petersburg and the Appomattox Salute — Ronald White — Despite his Gettysburg fame, Chamberlain returned to combat, leading a brigade. At Petersburg in 1864, he sustained a near-mortal wound from a minié ball; two surgeons declared it would prove fatal. He miraculously survived without antiseptic or modern medical intervention.

The crime scene reflected a burglary, with Opal's wedding ring pulled off her finger.  Within a week, it happened again. Octogenarian Eleanor Swift's home, just 6 miles from Opal's, was burgled, she was killed, and her wedding ring taken.  A third victim in the same month survived, but remembered nothing.  The cases, quickly connected in the eyes of the investigators, went cold, despite a large number of suspects being considered.  Hairs found at Opal's crime scene, distinct from her own, would prove to be the key to an IGG analysis, and a suspect was finally identified and arrested for her murder in 2023.  But that is not the end of the story.      To listen to every episode of DNA: ID ad-free and get other benefits, simply  visit our channel page on Apple Podcasts to get started with an AbJack Insider subscription.
