Mit seinem neunten Album "Young Americans" verließ David Bowie die Glam-Rock-Ära und wandte sich dem Soul zu. Der gleichnamige Titelsong machte ihn endlich auch in den USA zum Star. David Bowie galt als Meister der Verwandlung und wird oft das "Chamäleon der Popmusik" genannt. Doch SWR1 Meilensteine-Host Frank König widerspricht: Bowie war das Gegenteil eines Chamäleons. Er wollte nicht mit seiner Umwelt verschmelzen, sondern herausstechen. Mit "Young Americans" beweist er genau das und erfand sich noch einmal neu. Es entstand ein Album mit afroamerikanischen Soul- und Funkeinflüssen. Den Stil betitelte Bowie als "Plastic Soul", eine selbstironische Anspielung darauf, dass er als weißer Brite zwar Soul spielte, aber niemals völlig authentisch sein konnte. Anfang der 1970er Jahre entdeckte David Bowie seine Leidenschaft für Soulmusik. 1972 lernte er die Sängerin Ava Cherry kennen, die ihn 1974 in die legendären Sigma Sound Studios in Philadelphia begleitete. Dort nahmen sie gemeinsam den Song "Sweet Thing" auf. Die Sigma Sound Studios, Heimat des Philadelphia Soul, boten die perfekte Kulisse für die Aufnahmen des Albums "Young Americans", die im August 1974 begannen. Neben Ava Cherry als Backgroundsängerin begleiteten Bowie auch Funk-Gitarrist Carlos Alomar, sowie der damals noch unbekannte Luther Vandross, der später als R&B-Star berühmt wurde. Gleichzeitig befand sich David Bowie zum Zeitpunkt der Aufnahmen in seiner schlimmsten Lebensphase. Er kämpfte mit seiner Drogensucht und war dementsprechend in keiner guten körperlichen Verfassung. Trotz seines Zustands war "Young Americans" innerhalb von zwei Wochen fertig aufgenommen. __________ Über diese Songs vom Album "Young Americans" wird im Podcast gesprochen: (16:30) – "Young Americans"(25:13) – "Across The Universe"(28:52) – "Fame"(37:17) – "Fascination"(52:32) – "Right"(57:53) – "Somebody Up There Likes Me" __________ Alle Shownotes und weiterführenden Links zur Folge: https://1.ard.de/david-bowie-young-americans __________ Ihr wollt mehr Podcasts wie diesen?

[We celebrate the holidays with a re-release of a fan favorite episode from January 2018!] As the new year beckons, the fate of the Arena Football League – one of America's most innovative modern-day professional sports concepts – hangs in the balance.  With only four teams (the mutually-owned Washington Valor and Baltimore Brigade, defending champion Philadelphia Soul, and a still-unnamed Albany, NY squad) confirmed for the upcoming 2018 season, the AFL will play with exactly the same number of franchises that comprised its inaugural “demonstration” season back in 1987 – and a mere fraction of the 19 clubs that competed during its heyday in the early-to-mid 2000s. Much has happened to the league and the sport during those 30+ years, of course – and few doubt that the unique (and once-patented) excitement of arena football won't eventually find a sustainable business model and a return to long-term stability.  In the interim, however, we delve into how it all began, with the first of our two-part interview with Iowa native Jim Foster – the inventor of arena football and the founder of the original Arena Football League – who takes host Tim Hanlon on rollicking excursion across the uncharted sports terrain of the 1970s and 80s that led to both the birth of a sport and the launch of a professional league, including:  Exporting professional American football to Europe decades before the NFL; Discovering fans' year-long appetite for pro football via the USFL; Scribbling parameters for “indoor football” on a manila envelope while attending the 1981 MISL All-Star Game; Tinkering on a shoestring with facilities, equipment, rules, and approaches to TV broadcast coverage; Tapping into the nostalgia and cost economics of two-way players, as well as the fan appeal of “run-and-shoot” offensive action; AND Defending the notion of centrally-controlled league ownership from franchise-hungry charter owners.

The Creativity, Education, and Leadership Podcast with Ben Guest

Podcast Links: Apple/SpotifyIt almost becomes innate how you tell a story.Pete Croatto is a freelance writer and “idea vendor” (a term he borrowed from author Taffy Brodesser-Akner), based in Ithaca, New York.His first book, From Hang Time to Prime Time, was published by Atria Books in 2020.The New York Times writes that Mr. Croatto documents the broader cultures and social tensions of the modern NBA well.In this episode Pete and I discuss the following:Why finding an agent and publishing a book is like falling in love.The benefits of joining the American Society of Journalists and Authors (@ASJAhq).“The dirty little secret (of marketing) is that you're doing a lot of the work when the book comes out.”How he made his local, independent bookstore, Odyssey Books, his home base.The process of cold emailing media and podcasters. His “hit rate” from cold emails was 30%.How Larry O'Brien taking the job as NBA Commissioner in 1975 would be like Elizabeth Warren taking over the National Lacrosse League today.How O'Brien handled NBA owners by delegating and how David Stern served as O'Brien's lead blocker.Our mutual appreciation of Robert Caro.How telling a story is like coiling a garden hose.How Leon Huff, of the legendary “Philadelphia Soul” musical production team Gamble and Huff, gave Pete a great metaphor for writing a good scene. Huff said, in song production, “that ding (of a bell) can be the difference between a good song and a great song.” It's the same with the little details in your scene. Was O'Brien smoking Winstons or Camels? Did David Stern have eggs or oatmeal? The little details immerse the reader.You can find Pete on Twitter (@PeteCroatto).If you order directly from Odyssey Bookstore you can buy a signed copy of Pete's book, From Hang Time to Prime Time.Pete goes into detail about the process of finding an agent and getting a book deal. Here are the steps Pete took to publish his first book:Was a freelance journalist who wrote articles for various outlets, including a piece on Marvin Gaye singing the National Anthem at the 1983 NBA All-Star Game.In his reporting for the article Pete started unearthing a bigger story about how the NBA went from a “rinky-dink” league to a global brand, primarily due to Larry O'Brien, Commissioner of the NBA, from 1975 to 1984.Pete's editor at Publishers Weekly (@PublishersWkly), Mark Rotella (@MarkRotella), suggested Pete put together a proposal and Mark would send it to his agent.Spent a year on the proposal, which included an outline of each of the ten chapters, two completed sample chapters, and comparable books like Jeff Pearlman's (@jeffpearlman) Showtime and Jonathan Abrams (@Jpdabrams) Boys Among Men.Agent never replied.Pete joined the American Society of Journalists and Authors (@ASJAhq).Attended an in-person 2017 ASJA event and pitched his book to a roundtable of agentsOne agent, John Bowers (@John_W_Bowers) at The Bent Agency (http://www.thebentagency.com/), was interested and agreed to represent Pete.A month later John left the agency BUT passed Pete on to a more experienced agent, Louise Fury.Louise shopped the book and it was acquired by Atria Press, an imprint of Simon & Schuster.From proposal to book deal was five years.Here's the cover of Pete's book:Speaking of sports writing, my new book, Zen and the Art of Coaching Basketball: Memoir of a Namibian Odyssey, drops November 1st, as both print and e-book, exclusively on Amazon (it's not available for pre-order as I want to maximize first day sales).Pressure plays, buzzer-beaters, and mindfulness meditation: A team of teenagers goes for the championship in Namibia's professional basketball league....Here's a photo of our team captain, Sepo Libana, 19 years old.The “big idea” of the book is that he way we think about coaching sports is all wrong, that it doesn't have to be rooted in anger and intimidation and fear.Here's the cover:If you haven't yet, please hit the “Subscribe now” button to stay up-to-date.And please share this email/post with the coaches, players, and parents of middle-school and high-school athletes in your life.

NAL Live Hosted by Andrew Haines: EP #7 Rob Keefe Head Coach Albany Empire Coach Rob Keefe is back to lead the Albany Empire for the organization's first season in the National Arena Football League. In 2019 Keefe led the Empire to a victory in Arena Bowl XXXII in front of 12,000 fans on national television after a 10-2 first place regular season record in the AFL. In his two seasons with the Empire, Keefe compiled an overall record of 22-7 with two first place finishes, earning the top seed in the playoffs each year as well as the Arena Bowl XXXII victory. During this time the Empire boasted numerous individual player accolades including: 2 MVP awards, 2 Offensive and 2 Defensive Players of the Year awards, 2 Offensive and 2 Defensive Linemen of the Year awards, 2 Wide Receiver of the Year awards, 1 Rookie of the Year award, 1 Kicker of the Year award and 23 All Arena players. Keefe is the only person in AFL history to win Arena Cup (AF2) and Arena Bowl (AFL) titles as both a player and head coach. His arena bowl championship in 2010 with the Spokane Shock made him the youngest head coach in league history to win it all. Keefe has won 3 championships in the AFL and 2 championships in the AF2. Keefe has accumulated great experience throughout his tenure in arena football, as both a player and a coach. He began as a defensive back for the Spokane Shock in AF2. During his two-year run with the Shock, Keefe finished as the team's career leader in tackles and interceptions and earned all AF2 honors in both seasons. He entered the AFL with the Philadelphia Soul in 2008, helping the team win Arena Bowl XXII as a defensive back and kick returner. In 2009, Keefe went back to Spokane, this time as the secondary coach. The first season with Keefe as a coach, the Shock boasted the league's top ranked defense, allowing a mere 37.6 points per game, capping the season off with an Arena Cup title. The next year, Keefe was promoted to head coach the same year the Shock joined the Arena Football League. The Shock finished their inaugural AFL season with the league's best record (13-3) and ended as Arena Bowl champions. As a head coach in the AFL Keefe has accumulated an 83-40 overall record. He is also top ten in victories, winning percentage, post season victories and most arena bowl victories. The average margin of victory in 2019 for the Albany Empire was 16 points, as the offense averaged a league best 52.5 points per game and the defense also finished with a league best of holding opponents to 36.5 points per game. Before becoming the head coach of the Albany Empire, Keefe spent time coaching the Utah Blaze and the Orlando Predators, continuing his success. “I am very excited to help bring the fun and exciting game of arena football back to the proud Capital Region,” said Keefe. “I can already feel the energy pulsating from the city and the fans. I cannot wait to get back to see all the wonderful sponsors and amazing fans and be instrumental in helping add to the positive strength of the community off the field.” Visit the Albany Empire website: http://albanyempirenal.com/ Follow Host Andrew Haines on Social Media: Instagram: @andrewghaines Twitter: @andrewghaines Facebook: @andrewghainessr Linkedin: @andrewghaines YouTube: @andrewghaines

Hello, and welcome to Lechem Panim. We are glad you are with us today for another message from the book of Esther, which today will focus on the faithfulness of God to humble those who are sinful and arrogant and to exalt those who are righteous and humble. A Flex Cam Showdown— Not long ago, at a Philadelphia Soul football game, they've  had something called “Flex Cam.” The camera panned out to the crowd, tasking them to flex their muscles. It's a fun thing, kids and adults showing up on the big screen flexing. However, during once of these events there was a young man on whom the camera fell who wanted to show his fairly large muscles. So he stood up and flexed his biceps and even turned to the girl behind and began flexing in front of her. And then he turned back to the camera to flex some more. But unbeknownst to him, the girl he had been flexing to quietly stood up behind him and slipped off her jean jacket, revealing bulging, body-builder arms. And he turned again, just in time to see her (with a look of pure pleasure) flexing her vastly superior arms over him; after which he quietly slumped back into his seat with a look of absolute embarrassment on his face. Humbling Fun To Watch— You know, I don't care whether it is in a movie or television show, or even in day to day life, the funniest moments are often when somebody who is proud or arrogant or full of themselves is humbled. And we will see this happen in a big way in our story today in the book of Esther. Esther Stands for God's People— Now we left Queen Esther last week immediately following the first banquet she had prepared for the King and his advisor Haman. Because Esther's cousin Mordecai wouldn't bow down to him at the city gate, Haman tricked the King into signing an edict that would cause all of the Jews in Persia (not just Mordecai) to be exterminated. However, Haman knows neither of Esther's connection with Mordecai nor the fact that she is herself a Jew. And so Esther is preparing to reveal Haman's plot to the king and could have done so at her first banquet, but (apparently) senses God telling her to wait. So she invites the King and Haman to a second banquet, during which she will make her request. And this of course gives God the opportunity not just to bring Haman to justice, but to humble him and bring about the exaltation (the lifting up) of Mordecai, which we will cover. But after this first banquet, Haman (who has no idea what is coming) is on cloud 9. He is excited. It says in… Esther 5:9-14 (NIV)— 9 Haman went out that day happy and in high spirits. But when he saw Mordecai at the king's gate and observed that he neither rose nor showed fear in his presence, he was filled with rage against Mordecai. 10 Nevertheless, Haman restrained himself and went home. Calling together his friends and Zeresh, his wife, 11 Haman boasted to them about his vast wealth, his many sons, and all the ways the king had honored him and how he had elevated him above the other nobles and officials. 12 “And that's not all,” Haman added. “I'm the only person Queen Esther invited to accompany the king to the banquet she gave. And she has invited me along with the king tomorrow. 13 But all this gives me no satisfaction as long as I see that Jew Mordecai sitting at the king's gate.” 14 His wife Zeresh and all his friends said to him, “Have a pole set up, reaching to a height of fifty cubits [(this was about 75 feet or almost 8 stories high)], and ask the king in the morning to have Mordecai impaled on it. Then go with the king to the banquet and enjoy yourself.” This suggestion delighted Haman, and he had the pole set up. Impaling— Now this pole (and impaling) was a pre-cursor to crucifixion, which some believe the Persians were the inventors of. It was a graphic way to display the corpses of your enemies and instill fear in the hearts of your people. Ahasuerus' grandfather Darius at one time had 3,000 citizens who had been a part of a revolt impaled at one time. It was very graphic and humiliating; and therefore a method Haman chooses with glee. And Haman (after instituting this plan) probably then turns in for the night and smiles as he drifts into sleep, dreaming of his revenge against Mordecai. Sleeping Haman vs. Sleepless Ahasuerus— But that night, Ahasuerus, by the providence of God, cannot sleep. He's tossing and turning, but to no avail. And he calls for his servants and commands that the royal records be read to him. And he is expecting the monotony of the records to lull him to sleep (like counting sheep or reading the phone book). So the royal records are brought, a scroll is chosen, and his servant begins reading. But instead of a boring record, he is read the record of his being saved by Mordecai from the plot against his life made by his two doorkeepers (Bigthan and Teresh) five years (cf. 2:16 with 3:7) earlier. Divine Orchestrating— Now the royal records recorded not only the years of Ahasuerus' reign, but also the reign of his father and grandfather. So you can imagine how many records there were. What are the chances that this scroll was chosen? Well it wasn't chance. God brought it about. Don't ever tell me this is a God-less book. God is very present in this story on every page; He is behind the scenes orchestrating every event towards the fulfillment of His purposes. The King's Inquiry— Now Xerxes, eagerly asks, 3 “What honor and recognition has Mordecai received for this?” And his attendants answer “Nothing has been done for him,” And so the King resolves to rectify that right away.  Haman's Pride Backfires— Yet, first thing in the morning, Haman comes before the king at the royal court with a gleam in his eye ready to ask the king for authorization to execute Mordecai. Talk about being in the wrong place at the wrong time! And he's thinking about that stake being set up for Mordecai. And he comes to the king. And the king speaks first. But can you even imagine what would have happened if Haman had spoken first? That expression, “He put his foot in his mouth” just wouldn't cut it. But the king speaks first. It says… Esther 6:6-10 (NIV)— 6 When Haman entered, the king asked him, “What should be done for the man the king delights to honor?” {And Haman thinks it's HIM!!! And his ego and head begins to swell; his chest begins to puff out. It says…}  Now Haman thought to himself, “Who is there that the king would rather honor than me?” 7 So he answered the king, “For the man the king delights to honor, 8 have them bring a royal robe the king has worn and a horse the king has ridden, one with a royal crest placed on its head. 9 Then let the robe and horse be entrusted to one of the king's most noble princes. Let them robe the man the king delights to honor, and lead him on the horse through the city streets, proclaiming before him, ‘This is what is done for the man the king delights to honor!'” {And Haman smiles ear to ear as the king puffs his own chest out and gets ready to declare the recipient of this honor. Verse 10…} 10 “Go at once,” the king commanded Haman. “Get the robe and the horse and do just as you have suggested for Mordecai the Jew, who sits at the king's gate. Do not neglect anything you have recommended.” Haman Leading Mordecai's Parade— Now I don't think words can describe the shock and frustration this little man Haman was feeling. Maybe its like that commercial on tv where the man puts his head close to the bushes as he's working on them and a squirrel leaps out, latches onto his face and begins tearing him up. Hamon receives a similar, nasty surprise. And a whole field of emotions are bubbling up in Haman right now. But it says… Esther 6:11 (NIV)— 11 So Haman got the robe and the horse. He robed Mordecai, and led him on horseback through the city streets, proclaiming before him, “This is what is done for the man the king delights to honor!” Haman Head of The Parade!— Now you have to get this. Haman has to be the person not only to dress Mordecai in the royal robes and a royal crown and help him onto the royal horse, he has to be the guy who leads the parade for Mordecai as they go though the city. And as he's leading Mordecai, he has to say, “This is what is done for the man the king delights to honor!” And it says in verse 12... Esther 6:12 (NIV)— 12 Afterward Mordecai returned to the king's gate. But Haman rushed home, with his head covered in grief, 13 and told Zeresh his wife and all his friends everything that had happened to him. No comfort from his wife— And he's expecting them to comfort him and to placate his wounded ego. However, they don't. In fact, just the opposite. It says… His advisers and his wife Zeresh said to him, “Since Mordecai, before whom your downfall has started, is of Jewish origin, you cannot stand against him—you will surely come to ruin!”  Not quite the pick-me-up he was looking for. And that prophecy (unlike many) didn't predict events in the distant future; but was more of a just-around-the-corner kind of prophecy. It says… Esther 6:14-7:1—  14 While they were still talking with him, the king's eunuchs arrived and hurried Haman away to the banquet Esther had prepared. 7:1 So the king and Haman went to Queen Esther's banquet, And we will see next week how things are going to play out for Haman. But God's word to us for today is this. Although we know that God promises to reward us for our good deeds, we can often times feel that the “payoff” is too far away. And we often wonder if it is worth it. Mordecai went without being rewarded (or even recognized) for what he had done for five years. But though the king may have forgotten, one thing we see here is that God never forgets. And God will reward us in due season when that reward will do the greatest possible good. But we need to patient, just as both Esther AND Mordecai were willing to wait for God's timing. One of the greatest points of security that will come in your life will come when you come to grips with the truth that God truly is faithful; He has been, He is, and He always will be faithful to you and to me.  Deuteronomy 7:9 (NIV)— 9 Know therefore that the Lord your God is God; he is the faithful God, keeping his covenant of love to a thousand generations of those who love him and keep his commandments. Let us know today in a special way the faithfulness of our God. Amen.

Once I started to look into Beau, who played a significant role in the docuseries, I found that Beau has quite the experience playing professional (American) football. As you can see in the title, Beau played in 4 different professional leagues. In addition, he was in upper management within the AFL at the end of his career. In addition to his playing experience and stories, Beau also, because of his management role and the time of this role, brings an interesting perspective to the fall of the AFL. As the GM for the Philadelphia Soul during the last year of the AFL, Beau tells how he found out about the fall of the AFL and what his reaction was. As you can probably tell by the time length of this episode, there is a lot here; this is because Beau has a lot of stories and experiences to pass on.

Das Leben hat wieder einen Sinn! Die NFL ist zurück. Ab sofort gibt es wieder jede Woche Touchdown-Action in der besten Sportliga der Welt. Im neuesten Podcast der „Footballerei“ dreht sich alles um Neuigkeiten aus den Trainingscamps, dem anstehenden Hall of Fame-Wochenende und die Diskussion um CTE. Im Studio begrüßen euch Stolle und Kucze. Als Gast (oder besser gesagt als Inventar) ist Carsten Spengemann am Start. Wir sprechen über die aktuellen In-n-Out der NFL. Über CTE. Das kommende Hall of Fame-Wochenende und skypen mit Phil Bogle. Der General Manager und Assistant Head Coach der Philadelphia Soul in der Arena Football League war einst Offensive Lineman bei den San Diego Chargers und blockte für LaDainian Tomlinson. Uns verrät er, wie es war, mit LT zu spielen und was er für ein Mensch ist. Wie die AFL funktioniert und wo er American Football in den kommenden Jahren sieht. Zum Schluss der Sendung geht es noch um die Trainingscamps und ihre ersten Skandale. Denn mit Le'Veon Bell, Donald Penn und Aaron Donald setzen gleich drei Superstars aus, um mehr Geld zu fordern. Verdient? Das sagen wir euch im Podcast. Wenn ihr mehr von der „Footballerei“ wollt, dann checkt unsere Website oder schaut auf unseren Social-Media-Kanälen vorbei. Am kommenden Montag sind wir wie gewohnt um 19 Uhr live auf Facebook und YouTube sowie auf der Facebook-Seite von ran am Start.
