Etwas müde, aber mit vielen frischen Eindrücken von der gerade beendeten SPIEL in Essen, bilanzieren die Hosts Manuel Fritsch und Stefan Ducksch im spielboxcast 28 ihre Messe-Erlebnisse. Beide waren vier Messetage plus den vorgeschalteten Pressetag in den Hallen unterwegs, um Neues aufzustöbern – gar nicht so leicht, bei mittlerweile 220.000 Besuchern auf der noch einmal um eine weitere Halle angewachsenen Messe. Für den veranstaltenden Merz Verlag, der sowohl bei den Eintrittskarten als auch den Standflächen komplett ausverkauft war, ein schöner Erfolg. Entsprechend positiv fiel die Bilanz auch bei Carol Rapp, Geschäftsführerin des veranstaltenden Merz Verlages, in unserem Gespräch aus. Bei der Diskussion über die eigenen Erfahrungen mit Spiele-Neuheiten blicken Manuel und Stefan auch auf die beiden Besucherumfragen auf der Messe. Das deutsche Fachmagazin Fairplay und die US-Website BoardGameGeek hatten ihre Leser aufgerufen, sich zu beteiligen. US-Spielzeugriese Hasbro hat Avalon Hill schon vor einigen Jahren reanimiert und versucht sich jetzt auch wieder auf dem europäischen Markt mit Autorenbrettspielen. So ist in diesem Jahr bereits COSMOLANCER von Reiner Knizia erschienen (Neuauflage von AUF HELLER UND PFENNIG), für das kommende Jahr ist SANIBEL von Elisabeth Hargrave angekündigt, dazu MARKET FRESH, eine Überarbeitung von JUBAKO (Ravensburger) von Wolfgang Kramer und Michael Kiesling. Wir sprachen auf der Neuheitenschau mit Pia Blum, Senior Brand Manager bei Hasbro, über die Pläne mit Avalon Hill. Kurz vor der Messe hatte Ravensburger angekündigt, dass unter seiner Vielspielermarke alea im kommenden Jahr erstmals lokalisierte Spiele herausgebracht werden, nämlich PROPOLIS (Molly Johnson, Robert Melvin, Shawn Stankewich; Flatout Games) und MOON COLONY BLOODBATH (Donald X. Vaccarino; Rio Grand Games). Zu den neuen Plänen mit alea ein Gespräch mit dem Head of Games bei Ravensburger, Florian Baldenhofer.

Frederik vom „Boardcast“ hat mit Pia Blum von „Hasbro“ gesprochen. Im Fokus standen die Neuerscheinungen „Cosmolancer“, „Hero Quest“ und ein Ausblick auf „Sanibel“

In a special episode of the Gulf Coast Life Book Club, we welcome legendary Sanibel author Randy Wayne White. Our conversation was recorded live at the Player's Circle Theater in Fort Myers and hosted by Macintosh Books and Paper of Sanibel.

We are diving deep into wealth, class, and privilege with Sanibel, author of the novel To Have and Have More and an expert on the subtle—and not-so-subtle—ways the ultra-wealthy wield their status. If you've ever been curious about the behaviors and dynamics that go beyond “quiet luxury” or the “nepo baby” conversation, you'll enjoy this conversation. Sanibel breaks down concepts like stealth privilege, coattail riders, and what she calls the rich person's “cheat code.” We'll also unpack the history of our cultural obsession with wealth in the U.S., why some believe wealth is a poison to our culture and explore why being “too rich” might just make you less empathetic.More about Sanibel: She is a writer based in NYC. She grew up in Princeton, NJ and studied Classics at the University of Pennsylvania before getting her MFA at The New School. Her essays appear in New York, Air Mail, ELLE, and Lit Hub. You can follow Sanibel on TikTok and Instagram.

Patrick welcomes listeners into rich conversations about faith, tradition, and the unseen presence of angels, fueled by callers’ stories and thoughtful questions. Whether responding to childhood memories of Mass with guardian angels or clarifying Catholic teaching on Mary’s perpetual virginity, Patrick moves between practical wisdom and scriptural insight, offering heartfelt guidance to those seeking clarity. A sudden story about lightning on the beach, a discussion of guardian angels’ enduring help, and plenty of listener engagement create a dynamic mix of reflection, advice, and encouragement for deepening one’s relationship with God. Theresa - On healing masses that I have been to there is an anointing of the sick and priest prays over you. Do you think your angel goes with you to church and ministers with other angels? (00:54) Jill - Two people in Sanibel were killed on the beach because of lightning. You are not even supposed to be in bath or take shower. We have so much lightning here. (05:35) Mary Anne - Can you explain Mary's perpetual virginity to someone who is not Catholic? (11:00) Robert - Should I pray to angels and ask them to help those who they watch over to forgive me? (20:40) Bob (email) – Is there a book that details what is contained in Sacred Tradition? (46:03)

Nick Monard is a serial entrepreneur, travel agent, podcaster, and author based in Southwest Florida. After immigrating to the United States in 2013 with the goal of achieving the American dream, he became a leadership and mindset expert. With his unique perspective on success, travel, and influence, Nick has inspired many and penned the book Mindset Is My Degree.Welcome, Nick! Tell us a little about yourself.Thank you for having me! I'm originally from Belgium. When I first arrived in the United States, I spoke no English, which made navigating this new chapter quite a challenge. But it was also one of the most rewarding experiences of my life.I've always had an entrepreneurial spirit, and coming to the U.S. allowed me to channel that into extremely meaningful pursuits—like starting my travel agency and sharing my travel mental and professional journey through writing.Why did you want to move to the U.S.?At 9 years old, I came to visit Florida for three weeks and I came back obsessed with America. The American flag was all over my room and my dream board. At the top of my dream board, I wrote, “I will move to the United States one day.” I knew I was going to move to the U.S. one day. I finally moved to the U.S. at 33 years old, but it was all worth it.What was it like moving to the U.S. from Belgium?It was quite a polar cultural shift. Belgium is known for its history, architecture, and small-town historic charm, while the U.S. is much larger in scale and offers endless opportunities. Adjusting to a new language and lifestyle was tough, but it taught me resilience and adaptability—qualities that are central to my work today.What do you love most about Southwest Florida? Do you have any favorite spots?Southwest Florida is paradise! Palm Trees are “freedom” to me. The scenery, the weather, and the beaches are stunning, and the community is warm and welcoming. My favorite beach spots include Barefoot Beach, and Lovers Key State Park—they're perfect for relaxing and soaking in the natural beauty. As for food, I'm a fan of the Cooper's Hawk Restaurants in Naples and Fort Myers. For travelers visiting SWFL, what are your must-do recommendations?There's so much to explore! The beaches and islands like Sanibel and Captiva are stunning. I'd suggest staying at the Ritz-Carlton in Naples for a luxurious experience or trying out the smaller boutique hotels for a cozy vibe. Be sure to visit the Edison and Ford Winter Estates for some history and take a kayak tour through the mangroves at the Estero River Outfitters. And of course, don't miss out on the local seafood—it's some of the freshest you'll ever taste! The outlets and outdoor malls like 5th Avenue in Naples and Miromar Outlets in Estero have great shopping. You can even travel up to places like Siesta Key for extra adventures.What sparked your love of travel?It's in my DNA. Growing up in Europe and playing professional basketball, travel became a big part of my life. In Europe, countries are so close together. In the U.S. I traveled to New York, NOLA, Vegas, and other fun cities. I've always been curious about experiencing new cultures, meeting people, and seeing the world from different perspectives.What are your favorite places you've visited?I'd have to say Antarctica even though I hate cold weather! I took a Seabourn cruise through Antarctica and it was the best experience of my life. In Europe, Barcelona is my favorite city because it has everything. It has a fantastic beach, extravagant architecture, amazing city life, top-notch food, and a fantastic cruise port. I love Las Ramblas Boulevard for the “people watching” and music. I also love Budapest. It is a totally underrated city with extremely nice people and very affordable prices. People in Croatia are also extremely nice and beautiful. If you like beer and “real” French Fries, check out my home country of Belgium. Each place left a lasting impression on me for different reasons.What's your favorite way to travel?I'm a fan of cruising. There's nothing like waking up to a new destination every day without having to unpack and pack up again for the next spot. My two best-selling adult cruiseliners are Celebrity Cruises and Virgin Voyages. These cruise liners have great food and no kids! Virgin has a one-star Michelin chef onboard. Celebrity is very similar to top all-inclusive hotels. The service is top-notch and they have the best sea casino. I love smaller, luxury river cruises through Europe as well. You definitely need to experience Greece on a cruise. There are lots of small places that day trips are perfect for. Royal Caribbean's Caribbean island cruises are also great. I really love to cruise from California to Hawaii & Tahiti. I have also been on a 26-day cruise from Sydney Australia to San Francisco visiting all the islands along the way. Cruising is not the best option for people who want to experience all the nightlife of a city, however, certain cruises that go to places like Greece and Ibiza have night stops for travelers to enjoy the nightlife.  What are your favorite all-inclusive resorts or resort locations?Xcaret Mexico is one that I personally love. I believe it has the best beaches in Mexico and so many choices for food. They have literally a market where everything is fresh every morning, and when you walk towards the market, you just smell it ahead of you. The scenery is incredible. People always mention sandals. Some sandals are very nice and some are not great. In Jamaica, for example, they have a brand new Sandals Resort that is out of this world beautiful, but it's pretty expensive. It has water bungalows where the floor is transparent glass, and you can see the water and the fish. You also have your own little pool, and jacuzzi included in your bungalow. That is an experience everyone should do at least once. Many couples vacation there for honeymoons and anniversaries. Also, Bora Bora is perfect for travelers who love beaches and beautiful scenery on the water. Fiji is the fanciest spot. All hotels here are all-inclusive, butler included! You can only stay four nights maximum on the island and it costs eight to twelve thousand dollars a night—usually, people island-hop after stopping in Fiji. Fiji trips need to be booked a year and a half in advance. Tell us more about your business, Dream Vacations.I became a travel agent because people loved the places I traveled to and wanted to go themselves. I realized I needed a referral fee to set their vacations up. I've been in the travel business for several years now with Dream Vacations, a franchise under World Travel Holdings. As a luxury travel concierge, I go beyond basic planning to create customized, seamless experiences for my clients. My goal is to make every trip unforgettable. The best part for the customer is it doesn't cost them extra to use a travel agent. What most people do not know is travel agent service fees are always included in your booking fee whether you use a travel agent or not. Using a travel agent like me, you do not lose any extra money in fees and you can find the best cruises, hotels, and trips in the world!What does your planning process look like?It all starts with a conversation. I ask my clients about their interests, goals, group size, and must-have sites and experiences. From there, I focus on delivering value and finding options that balance quality and budget. I use Dream Vacations to book travel and activities while keeping an eye out for deals without compromising a high-quality experience.Lastly, where can our readers find and connect with you?You can find me on Instagram and Facebook at @NickMonardTravel or visit my website at dreamvacations.com.

Until next time, happy travel bratting!

Hurricane Ian made landfall in Southwest Florida at the small island of Cayo Costa on Sept. 28, 2022. As we approach the two year anniversary, we having a conversation with a group of Sanibel Island residents to hear their stories about Ian, and what has unfolded since — and how the island community has become more connected because of what they all experienced together. Every single Sanibel resident, and every single property, was impacted by the devastating storm. But, from what we'll hear today, it seems the Sanibel spirit and sense of community has only been strengthened by this experience.

We are diving deep into the world of wealth, class, and privilege with Sanibel, author of the forthcoming novel To Have and Have More and an expert on the subtle—and not-so-subtle—ways the ultra-wealthy wield their status. If you've ever been curious about the behaviors and dynamics that go beyond “quiet luxury” or the “nepo baby” conversation, you'll enjoy this conversation. Sanibel breaks down concepts like stealth privilege, coattail riders, and what she calls the rich person's “cheat code.” We'll also unpack the history of our cultural obsession with wealth in the U.S., why some believe wealth is a poison to our culture and explore why being "too rich" might just make you less empathetic.More about Sanibel: She is a writer based in NYC. She grew up in Princeton, NJ and studied Classics at the University of Pennsylvania before getting her MFA at The New School. Her essays appear in New York, Air Mail, ELLE, and Lit Hub.

David Rahahę·tih Webb was born in Southwest Florida and grew up on Sanibel Island, which puts him in a relatively small group of people compared to this area's current population. But, his family roots go back for generations and their connections to life on Sanibel are both broad and deep. His ‘pioneer' side goes back eight generations on Sanibel and his Seminole side goes back past recorded history. His direct ancestors were Spanish Seminole members of the Sanibel Island Rancho. Ranchos were small, tight-knit communities settled by Europeans centuries ago. They were essentially fishing camps with as many as 600 residents, most of which were Seminole. And, David is a 4th generation Ding Darling employee — his great grandfather was the first refuge employee; the admin building was dedicated to his grandmother, who worked there for 33 years; his mother worked there when she was pregnant with him and he worked there while serving in AmeriCorps in the mid 1990s.

It's Friday, October 7th, A.D. 2022. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. By Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) Australian missionary, detained in North Korean prison, shares testimony Back in February of 2014, John Short, a 75-year-old Australian missionary, was taken prisoner in North Korea, and detained for 13 days. He was repeatedly interrogated for four hours a day. He was forced to write a “confession” of his “crimes,” including the offense of wanting more North Koreans to follow Jesus, reports Voice of the Martyrs Radio. He admitted to distributing Bible tracts in order to convert North Koreans.  He told The Guardian, "I strongly protested that I was not a spy, nor working with any South Korean organizations nor was I hostile to the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.” Short said he was told that he faced 15 years in prison for distributing those Christian pamphlets at a Buddhist temple and on a train. He said, "I confessed that I had knowingly broken the law in what I believed is my God-directed duty as I do in every place and country I visit." Despite the possible 15 years of imprisonment in a brutal North Korean jail, the Australian missionary did not give in to fear. Listen to what he said on Voice of the Martyrs Radio. SHORT: “Fear and faith cannot exist within my heart at the same time. I either feared for my self-preservation, the first law of human nature. Or was what I was about to embark on, was it a step of faith? When we live by faith, trusting the Lord, moment by moment, fear has no room in the heart.” He echoed the sentiments of Apostle Paul in 1 Corinthians 9:16 which says, “For when I preach the Gospel, I cannot boast, since I am compelled to preach. Woe to me if I do not preach the Gospel!” California Governor signs 13 pro-abortion bills On Tuesday, California Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom signed 13 pro-abortion bills into law, reports The Washington Stand. Thirteen! Assembly Bill 1242, prohibits California law enforcement from assisting or cooperating with other states' abortion-related investigations. Yet another bill, Senate Bill 1142, requires the establishment of a state-funded “abortion care services website” that connects women to abortion mills and services. Finally, Senate Bill 1245, provides $20 million for the Los Angeles County Abortion Access Safe Haven Pilot program to fund “innovative approaches and collaborations to safeguard abortion access.” Doctors have a macabre new way to harvest organs In the never-ending quest for viable organs, doctors have found a macabre way around brain death and circulatory death criteria, reports the American Thinker.   According to Dr. Heidi Klessig, a retired anesthesiologist and the co-author of Harvesting Organs & Cherishing Life: What Christians Need to Know About Organ Donation and Procurement, transplant centers around the country are doing something quite disturbing. She said, “They are removing organ donors from life support, clamping off the blood flow to their brains, and then restarting their hearts.  Thus, the organs are resuscitated and viable for transplant, but the person doesn't wake up.” In addition, Dr. Klessig writes, “Many medical professionals are uncomfortable with donation after circulatory death because they know that patients are routinely resuscitated after 2–3 minutes of cardiac arrest.  Dr. Ari Joffe, a clinical professor of pediatrics and critical care at the University of Alberta, has found at least 12 patients whose hearts restarted without any medical intervention after as much as 10 minutes of cardiac arrest, and some of these patients made a complete recovery.” Dr. Klessig's advice? She said, “Don't become a victim of unethical organ harvesting practices.  Don't sign that donor card!” Vice President plays race card with Hurricane Ian Hurricane Ian destroyed entire cities, caused tens of billions of dollars in damages, killed dozens of people, and left 500,000 Floridians without power, reports Fox News. However, Vice President Kamala Harris played the identity politics/race card in the midst of the tragedy. Listen. HARRIS: “It is our lowest income communities and our communities of color that are most impacted by these extreme conditions. So, we have to address this in a way that is about giving resources based on equity, understanding that we fight for equality, but we also need to fight for equity, understanding not everyone starts out at the same place. And if we want people to be in an equal place, sometimes we have to take into account those disparities.” Appearing on Sean Hannity's Fox show, Florida Republican Governor Ron DeSantis was asked about Harris' bizarre remark. HANNITY: “What is your reaction, governor, to the Vice President?” DeSANTIS: “I think she's trying to play identity politics with a storm and a natural disaster. And I think it's ridiculous. And honestly, we had the FEMA Administrator in Florida with us, and she threw cold water on that. So that is not going to happen. It's totally not appropriate. You don't have to politicize every single tragedy in this country. “I mean, I think people in Florida are really sick of the nonsense. They just want people to be helped. They want everyone to band together and when they want us to get these communities back on our feet. So, that's what we're doing in Florida. And Sean, the impacts span all demographics, all income levels. Sanibel has some very wealthy people. They also have blue collar people. You have other communities, different race, different ethnicities. Who cares? We just want to make sure people have a chance to get moving forward again.” William Tyndale killed for translating Bible into English And finally, yesterday, October 6th, was the anniversary of the death of William Tyndale who was strangled and then burned at the stake in 1536. His crime? He translated the Bible into English. The Protestant Reformation hero believed the Bible should be accessible to all people, not just priests. When one of his persecutors in the so-called heresy trial questioned this, Tyndale said: “If God spares me, before many years, I will cause a boy that drives the plough to know more of the Scriptures than you do.” William Tyndale's final words before he was strangled to death were, "Lord, open the king of England's eyes." That dying prayer at the age of 42 was answered two years after Tyndale's death, when King Henry VIII ordered that the Bible of Miles Coverdale was to be used in every parish in the land. The Coverdale Bible was largely based on Tyndale's work. Then, in 1539, Tyndale's own edition of the Bible became officially approved for printing. My bride, Amy, and I named our 7-year-old son Valor Tyndale to honor his brave legacy. Close And that's The Worldview in 5 Minutes on this Friday, October 7th, in the year of our Lord 2022.

City of Sanibel officials said Thursday evening they have confirmed at least two fatalities, while Smith said Friday there could be four.More than 500 individuals were rescued in Lee and Charlotte Counties, according to the Florida Division of Emergency Management, and search and rescue operations are continuing. There were 600-700 rescues in the county as of Saturday morning, the sheriff's office said.The U.S. Coast Guard and Miami-Dade Fire Rescue have been involved in search and rescue efforts, including in Sanibel and Captiva. Many rescues were made in waist-high water, public safety officials said Thursday.Use of direct-to-consumer DNA tests have exploded over the past decade, with an estimated 100 million people worldwide sharing their genetic information with companies like AncestryDNA, 23andMe, and FamilyTreeDNA. All that DNA has been a boon to law-enforcement agencies, who've discovered that “investigative genetic genealogy” is far more effective if searches aren't restricted to DNA left at a crime scene.By just uploading the genetic profile of a suspect to a genealogy website, where thousands of users have freely shared their DNA information to find out more about their ancestry, detectives are able to map out a criminal's entire family tree and zero in on their identity.

Sanibel and Captiva Islands were hit with a barrage of tropical weather from Hurricane Ian. Maria Espinoza, the executive director of FISH, a nonprofit providing disaster assistance, joins us.
