Valdosta State University history professor (and Episodes 334 and 244 guest) Tom Aiello is back — this time for an intriguing look at one of the most politically and culturally charged nights in American sports history: Muhammad Ali's comeback fight against Jerry Quarry on October 26, 1970, in Atlanta. After nearly three and a half years in professional exile, Ali returned to the ring having lost far more than his world heavyweight title. His refusal to be drafted into the Vietnam War had stripped him of his license to box, cost him his prime athletic years, and turned him into one of the most polarizing figures in the country. By 1970, however, the nation had changed. Public opinion about the war had shifted, Ali's moral stance looked increasingly prescient, and the question was no longer if he would return — but where and on whose terms. Atlanta provided the answer. The fight was as much a civic and cultural event as a sporting one, staged before an audience that reflected the city's rising Black political, economic, and social leadership. Civil rights figures, elected officials, entertainers, and power brokers filled the arena, transforming the evening into a declaration of legitimacy and self-determination. Ali's presence — confident, defiant, unapologetic — symbolized a broader shift in who held cultural authority in America. Quarry, a skilled and respected heavyweight contender, became the necessary counterpart in Ali's rebirth. The fight itself ended swiftly, with Ali winning by third-round stoppage, but its significance far outlasted the final bell. Drawing from his new book "Return of the King: The Rebirth of Muhammad Ali and the Rise of Atlanta"Ali," Aiello helps us understand how this night fused boxing, politics, and spectacle — how Atlanta became the stage for Ali's return, and how the event marked a turning point not just in his career, but in the public embrace of a new, unapologetic vision of Black power and identity. ALSO: A computer pits Ali vs. Rocky Marciano in "The Super Fight"; the curious ringside inspiration for "Uptown Saturday Night"; and the notorious tale of Gordon 'Chicken Man' Williams, as fictionalized in 2024's "Fight Night: The Million Dollar Heist".

Return of the King: The Rebirth of Muhammad Ali and the Rise of Atlanta (U Nebraska Press, 2025) tells the story of Muhammad Ali's return to the ring in 1970, after a more than three-year suspension for refusing his draft notice as a conscientious objector during the Vietnam War. With Ali's career still in doubt, he found new support in shifting public opinion about the war and in Atlanta, a city still governed by white supremacy, but a white supremacy decidedly different from that of its neighbor cities in the Deep South.  Atlanta had been courting and landing professional sports teams in football, basketball, and baseball since the end of 1968. An influential state politician, Leroy Johnson, Georgia's first Black state senator since Reconstruction, was determined to help Ali return after his exile. The state had no boxing commission to prevent Ali from fighting there, so Johnson made it his mission for Ali to make a comeback in Georgia. Ali's opponent would be Jerry Quarry, the top heavyweight contender and, more important, a white man who had spoken out against Ali's objection to the war.In Return of the King, Thomas Aiello examines the history of Muhammad Ali, Leroy Johnson, and the city of Atlanta, while highlighting an important fight of Ali's that changed the trajectory of his career. Although the fight between Ali and Quarry lasted only three rounds, those nine minutes changed boxing forever and were crucial to both the growth of Atlanta and the rebirth of Ali's boxing career. Craig Gill is a writer, researcher and historian based in Vancouver, BC. He is the author of Caddying on the Color Line, a history of African American golf caddies in the U.S. South.

The battle is over. Absalom is gone. The rebellion has collapsed. But the story is far from finished because now comes the part that is often harder than the conflict itself: The healing, what some today call the peace-building phase following war. David returns to Jerusalem, the tribes return to unity, and a nation begins returning to stability. But none of it happens cleanly or quickly, and none of it happens without tension.In this episode, we'll work through three key movements: 1. A King Who Must Rise from His Grief.2. Then A Nation That Must Choose Unity Again. 3. A Return Marked by Mercy, Justice, and Surprising Encounter. This chapter is not as dramatic as Chapter 18. It is not fast‑moving like chapter 17; it is quieter, more relational, more human. It shows us that healing a kingdom — or a family, or a friendship, or a community — requires humility, patience, courage, and grace. So today, we explore a chapter where the king returns, the people come together, and the long work of restoration begins.....

Our adventure through Middle Earth comes to a close as we make the final trek to Mount Doom with the epic Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King. Journey with us as special guest Jonathan as we go over all those extended scenes and how Peter Jackson decided to adapt certain aspects of the book. We discuss the wide cast of characters and those legendary battle sequences. Is this the last great fantasy epic or is it too much of a slog to get through? So pour some rye, grab the one ring to rule them all, and get ready to cast it into the fire to save Middle Earth. Cheers!

Forth Eorlingas! This week we toss Gimli face first into the forces of the Enemy. It's another four hour tour of Middle Earth, and this time, we brought Ents.Is the middle film of a trilogy ever the best one? In this case, the jury's out, but one thing is for certain: it has the weirdest title of all three.Topics explored this week include: Legolas's whole deal, the groundbreaking creation of Sméagol, Merry and Pippin blazin' it with Treebeard, Helm's Deep, Helm's Deep, and a LOT more Helm's Deep.Next week, we complete the holy trinity with RETURN OF THE KING (2003), and then we promise we'll never talk about Rings again (just kidding, the Ring has corrupted us and there's no turning back now).

Christmas didn't arrive in calm and quiet—it came into a broken world. In this episode of the Sermon Notes Podcast, Jay Strother and Brian Ball walk through Matthew 2 to explore Herod's violence, Mary and Joseph's costly obedience, and the clash of kingdoms surrounding Jesus' birth. Rather than avoiding suffering and lament, Matthew shows us a deeper Christmas hope: the true King has come, God is with us in the darkness, and evil will not have the final word.

A Christmas Story

ON SUNDAY December 21, the message is called Return of the King, with Patrick Edwards. The world is full of those who want control or influence over our lives. There's the promise of peace, security,  contentment everywhere we look. But there is One who claims authority and promises He is coming soon to place everything else in subjection. We are to welcome His return and begin now to find our peace in Him today. 

The Return of The KingJoin us live for today's sermon as we explore the powerful promise of Jesus' return. This message looks at what Scripture says about the coming King, the hope it gives believers, and how we are called to live as we wait for His return.

Note: this podcast was recorded LIVE for the patrons of Padres Hot Tub literally minutes after the announcement of the signing of Michael King, on the PHT Discord. You can be part of the fun (which included a hint on the platform hours in advance that a move was coming) and future live broadcasts by supporting our independent production at patreon.com/padreshottubON THE SHOW: Craig Elsten and Chris Reed are joined by a jubilant and suddenly-gathered group of PHT patrons to discuss the announcement that staff ace Michael King is coming back to the club on a new free agent deal! The contract includes a 12M signing bonus, 5M salary for 2026, and player options at 28M and 30M for 2027 and 2028, with a 5M buyout if King opts out the first season. Needless to say, this sparks discussion about the (erroneous?) reporting that the Padres didn't have money to spend, the idea of a King-Pivetta-Musgrove top of the rotation, and the idea that AJ Preller may now have strategic flexibility to make a trade if he has to. Recorded live just after 8pm PST on 12/18/25 live for our patrons on our PHT Discord Group Therapy stage!

Maar het gebeurde wel. Arsène Wenger moest Gervinho door de Africa Cup missen en "Titi" maakte zo'n fitte indruk op de training dat er besloten werd hem voor zes weken te huren.

It's the first major adaptation of Tolkien's trilogy and it is…rotoscope animation? Enter Ralph Bakshi and his completely batshit vision of an animated Middle Earth!Is it a mixed masterpiece or a very audacious disaster? Either way, Bakshi's rotoscope RINGS is extremely influential for Peter Jackson, and we're celebrating its legacy this week.Next week, we complete our unofficial animated trilogy with RETURN OF THE KING (1980) from Rankin and Bass.
