Troy Nunes Is An Absolute Magician: For Syracuse Orange fans
With so much trouble in the world these days and a seemingly endless list of problems that need solving, we at TNIAAM came up with just the solution on how to save the world and humanity from itself. It's our most ambitious project yet. That's right, folks. We've got just what you need: “A Syracuse basketball podcast” Points for originality on the name. As you might have been able to guess, we're launching a podcast solely dedicated to Syracuse Orange men's basketball. There just aren't enough podcasts these days. Anyway, in our inaugural episode, we brought on in-house talent Christian De Guzman to talk hoops. Always insightful, Christian joined me to discuss a litany of Syracuse basketball topics as we rehashed the coaching transition, offseason moves and got into detail about the first two exhibition games and season-opener against New Hampshire. That, and other topics below: Christian's background and what he's doing now Talking through Syracuse's historic coaching transition to its eighth men's basketball head coach Biggest storylines coming into the season and why Christian thinks it's Judah Mintz Take on the first two exhibition contests Chance Westry's knee injury, Benny Williams's suspension, Maliq Brown's tweaked groin. Which of these is most concerning? Kyle Cuffe, Peter Carey and JJ Starling are all coming off injuries last season Breaking down the guard group Talking about the wings, which, do we still call them forwards or is this team truly positionless? Center group and rotation What stood out in the season-opener against New Hampshire in Autry's debut? What Christian is looking for in the Canisius matchup Expectations for Maui, the rest of the non-conference and standing within the ACC Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

North Dakota State wraps up non-conference play Saturday at Gate City Bank Field at the Fargodome as they host Central Arkansas out of the United Athletic Conference. UCA enters with a record of 1-1, losing to Oklahoma State in its season opener, before beating Texas College, an NAIA school, 70-2 last week. This is the second all-time meeting between the schools, the two teams met in October 2020 in Fargo. That was Trey Lance's final game as a Bison, rallying NDSU in the fourth quarter to a 39-28 win. There was less than 500 people in attendance as the game was held in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Forum's Jeff Kolpack and WDAY's Dom Izzo discuss the matchup and why Central Arkansas poses a real challenge to a 19-year non-conference home win streak that the Bison currently have.

THIAGO MONTEIRO ON LIFE ON THE ROAD - ‘It's totally mental, for example on the clay we have to go from Monte Carlo to Barcelona and then Roland Garros and more because it's not that cheap or easy to go home and then back again, this logic doesn't work for us so it's different from the European players. Sometimes when I tell someone that this is my seventh week straight or ninth week straight, they think I'm crazy'.EDUARDO INFANTINO ON THE SOUTH AMERICAN MENTALITY - 'The key was big coaches and they were looking to the past, not just to the future and this kind of mentality was the key in South America and was the key for the next generation. This is why so many projects have stopped in one moment, when coaches don't open their eyes and look for another way to practice regarding physical condition, recovery, everything'.DIEGO MOYANO ON WHAT HE LOOKS FOR IN A YOUNG PLAYER - 'To be the best player you can be you need to be a well rounded person and you need to have knowledge of what surrounds you. Even on the tennis side if we live in a bubble, beside that you have to get as close as you can to a normal life, so having friends, boyfriends, girlfriends, whatever makes you happy. If you have the chance to do it go to the galleries, see the fashion and use the tennis to see the other things outside of tennis'.MARCELO AREVALO ON HIS GRAND SLAM VICTORY INSPIRING THE NEXT GENERATION IN EL SALVADOR - ‘It had a big impact on the kids back at home to believe because tennis is not a popular sport, not only in El Salvador but in the region, in Central America and the Caribbean and I think winning a Slam created hope for all those kids. Tennis is a great sport and if you can impact some people in life and somehow help them, that's what really gives me joy'.RAFAEL MATOS ON WINNING THE 2023 AUSTRALIAN OPEN MIXED DOUBLES - ‘When I woke up on the morning of the final I was so nervous, but I think it's really important, when you are nervous you cannot control things, so you have to be nervous and then control what you can do with that and that was one of the keys for us. Now it's a motivation as since you were a kid you have these goals, so now that it's happened, you feel more confident to win matches and make money'.DANIEL VALLEJO ON PARAGUAY - ‘The best thing about Paraguay has to be the food probably. Paraguay is pretty nice, especially the people. When you are from another country they treat you nice and that is not something that you see in every country, so that is something that you have to know from Paraguay, that's for sure'PLUS...SEBASTIAN BAEZ TALKS ABOUT HOW HE LIKES TO TRAVEL WITH ATP UNCOVERED- Podcast presented by Seb Lauzier- Interviews by Jill Craybas and Candy Reid- Baez feature by ATP Uncovered and Kate Flory

The paint is worn thin, but the message is still there, a puzzling declaration from a foggy past. At some point in history, someone decided to emblazon the city's public benches with the hyperbolically proud slogan: Baltimore – The Greatest City in America. Where'd this over-the-top motto come from? And how'd it end up on all those benches? Baltimore Banner reporter Clara Longo de Freitas teams up with Aaron Henkin to find the answers. In this episode, we hear from: Martin O'Malley, Mayor of Baltimore from 1999 to 2007 Steve Kearney, Director of Policy and Communications during O'Malley's Mayoral Administration Kurt Schmoke, Mayor of Baltimore from to 1987 to 1999 Sandy Hillman, Former Head of Mayor William Donald Schaefer's Office of Promotion and TourismSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The neighborhood post reads like the opening lines of a short story. “Although I love music, I don't play, and my Steinway is silent. If by chance anyone knows of a good pianist who would like to come over to practice or play, or even do a nice soiree with guests, please let me know. I am only interested in classical music. No jazz, no pop, no ragtime, God forbid.” Dr. Robert Fiscella owns an antique Steinway that belonged to a renowned European pianist, his late friend, Agi Jambor. This episode, we find an answer to Dr. Fiscella's question, and we learn the story of Agi Jambor, with the help of Baltimore Banner reporter Tim Prudente. In this episode we hear from: Dr. Robert Fiscella Baltimore Banner reporter Tim Prudente Agi Jambor's nephew in Budapest, Robert Schiller Agi Jambor's great niece in London, Frances Pinter, who published Jambor's memoir, Escaping Extermination Concert pianist Sarah Cahill Concert pianist and composer Wendel PatrickSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This episode takes on a question from a far-from-home listener. Robert Cusworth is from Maryland, he's in the US Coast Guard, and he's currently stationed in Guam. He noticed that one of the ships in the fleet out there is named USCG Cutter Myrtle Hazard. (Cool name, right?) Well, he heard the ship's namesake was originally from Baltimore. So, who is Myrtle Hazard? And why is there a Coast Guard ship in Guam named after her?

Have you seen that Rapunzel-looking brick tower next to the Hoes Heights neighborhood in North Baltimore? It just got restored, and everyone agrees it looks beautiful. That's pretty much where the good feelings end. Now there's a bitter argument over what's going to happen to the little plot of land around the tower. Some folks want a park. Others want access roads. Baltimore Banner reporter Jasmine Vaughn-Hall joins the podcast to unpack how a seemingly innocent planning project has reaggravated some long-standing racial wounds in a historically Black neighborhood.

It's a not-so-secret weapon that gives The Ravens their home field advantage: Baltimore's Marching Ravens are a massive musical hype machine that brings hometown crowds to their feet with the Ravens Fight Song.

This week, editor-in-chief Neal Pollack welcomes Art Edwards to talk about the new Colson Whitehead period crime novel, ‘Harlem Shuffle‘. Edwards acknowledges Whitehead's immense gifts but wonders if the hype outreaches the content on this book. He's disappointed in the low-stakes vibe of the plot, and feels like the book is mostly atmosphere, no sizzle.Then Neal celebrates the box-office success of ‘Shang Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings,' emphasizing that it's safe to go to the movies and always has been. Despite attempts to keep the population in a state of current COVID anxiety, stadiums and movie theaters are full, let's not lock down again.Finally, William Schwartz stops by Podcast Central to talk about ‘Nine Perfect Strangers,' the Hulu show that resembles, but in the end is nothing like the hit ‘The White Lotus.' And he and Neal have a lot of fun with the weird new Amazon Prime ‘Cinderella‘ movie, which talks about smashing the patriarchy in a world completely ruled by queens. Give it a listen, you won't be sorry!
At the start of the lockdown in March 2020 our Asset Management and Investment Funds Team initiated regular webinars to keep in touch with our clients, the director community and contacts. The purpose of this new podcast series is to provide you with these updates in a revised format. In this first episode, Sarah Cunniff, Partner, introduces an extract of the recording of the specific webinar on the CP86 findings which was broadcast on 23 October 2020. In October 2020, the Central Bank issued findings arising from its review of the implementation by Irish fund management companies of CP86, its Fund Management Guidance. These findings were the culmination of a three stage review process over an 18 month period by the Central Bank and it identified significant shortcomings in staffing levels, the oversight of delegates and the investment management processes for certain Irish management companies. Importantly, it required all Irish fund management companies to critically assess their operating models in the light of these findings. Of course, there have been some developments since that webinar was broadcast and so at the end of the podcast Sarah is joined by Tara O'Reilly, Partner and Co-Head of the Asset Management and Investment Funds Team, who will provide some detail on what has been happening since the time the webinar was first broadcast.

By the mid-20 century, Bethlehem Steel was the biggest steel company in the US. It was an industrial giant that seemed too powerful to fail. But in 2001, it declared bankruptcy, decimating retirees’ pensions and health benefits.

Back in the third episode of this series (Hard Fought Negotiations), we introduced you to Eddie Bartee, Jr. and after he heard the episode, he got in back in touch to share some feedback. In this bonus episode, we hop on the phone with Mr. Bartee for a candid conversation about what’s been said – and what hasn’t been said – in our telling of the Sparrows Point story so far.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In the 1970s, Bethlehem Steel was forced by a federal consent decree to start hiring women in all operational departments, and at Sparrows Point, a brave generation of female steelworkers first walked through the doors. They stepped into a work environment that was crass, sexist, and often openly hostile to their presence. This episode, we meet three ‘Women of Steel’ from that pioneering generation and hear their stories of setbacks and perseverance.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
A unionized workforce was never part of the original plan at Sparrows Point. Neither was racial equity. Workers were meant to be cogs in a machine, and black workers got channeled into the hottest, dirtiest, and lowest-paying jobs. It took until World War II before the plant was unionized, and it took until the 1970s before the company was forced to desegregate its job classifications. This episode, we learn about the uphill battle for worker rights and racial justice at Sparrows Point.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
How did a swampy peninsula on the Patapsco River get picked as the site for a revolutionary, state-of-the-art steel mill? What was it like to live and work in a self-contained company town? Did Bethlehem Steel help the Allies win World War II? And, by the way, just how complicated is it to make steel, anyway? This episode, we rewind to the origins of Sparrows Point and trace the growth of what would become the biggest steel mill in the world.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
From the labor gang to the blast furnace, the open hearth to the shipyard, the plate mill to the 68 hot strip mill, what was it like to walk into Sparrows Point and do a day’s work?

This episode, we feel what it was like to walk a mile in the boots of a Sparrows Point steelworker.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
