Early Christian and Byzantine Architecture. 4th ed. New Haven: Yale University Press, 1986. Essential. This is the backbone source for early Christian basilicas, liturgical space, urban context, and the development of Christian architecture after Constantine. Krautheimer is especially useful for not treating churches as isolated floor plans, but as part of city, ritual, bishop, patronage, and memory.Krautheimer, Richard. Rome: Profile of a City, 312–1308. Princeton: Princeton University Press, 1980. Very useful for Rome as a layered city: imperial remains, Christian churches, papal authority, public space, and the transformation of Roman urban memory.Krautheimer, Richard, Wolfgang Frankl, and Spencer Corbett. Corpus Basilicarum Christianarum Romae: The Early Christian Basilicas of Rome. 5 vols. Vatican City: Pontificio Istituto di Archeologia Cristiana, 1937–1977. Heavy academic reference work. Best for the Lateran, Old Saint Peter's, early Roman churches, plans, architectural evidence, and dating.Mathews, Thomas F. The Early Churches of Constantinople: Architecture and Liturgy. University Park: Pennsylvania State University Press, 1971. More focused on Constantinople, but excellent for connecting architecture and liturgical movement.White, L. Michael. Building God's House in the Roman World: Architectural Adaptation among Pagans, Jews, and Christians. Baltimore: Johns Hopkins University Press, 1990. Great for the transition from house settings and adapted spaces into larger public Christian architecture.Brandenburg, Hugo. Ancient Churches of Rome from the Fourth to the Seventh Century: The Dawn of Christian Architecture in the West. Turnhout: Brepols, 2005. Very useful for Rome, the Lateran, Santa Maria Maggiore, Santa Sabina, and the formation of Christian public architecture.Snyder, Graydon F. Ante Pacem: Archaeological Evidence of Church Life Before Constantine. Macon: Mercer University Press, 2003. Best for the “before Constantine” contrast: house churches, burial spaces, symbols, and pre-public Christian material culture.Elsner, Jaś. Imperial Rome and Christian Triumph: The Art of the Roman Empire AD 100–450. Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1998. Excellent for the transformation from Roman imperial art and space into Christian visual culture and triumphal imagery. Elsner's work is especially useful for your “empire becomes the bones of the church” angle.Constantine, Legal Shift, and Imperial PatronageEusebius. Life of Constantine. Translated by Averil Cameron and Stuart G. Hall. Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1999. Primary source. Use carefully because it is highly pro-Constantine and partly panegyric, but it is essential for Constantine's Christian image, patronage, and sacred building projects. Eusebius is one of the key ancient witnesses for Constantine's role in Christian imperial memory.Eusebius. Ecclesiastical History. Translated by Kirsopp Lake. Loeb Classical Library. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1926–1932. Useful background for the pre-Constantinian church, persecution memory, martyr tradition, and Christian self-understanding before public imperial patronage.Barnes, Timothy D. Constantine and Eusebius. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1981. Major scholarly source on Constantine, Eusebius, politics, Christian patronage, and imperial ideology.Drake, H. A. Constantine and the Bishops: The Politics of Intolerance. Baltimore: Johns Hopkins University Press, 2000. Excellent for the political complexity of Constantine's relationship with bishops and Christian institutions.Lenski, Noel, ed. The Cambridge Companion to the Age of Constantine. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2006. Good edited volume for Constantine's world: religion, politics, empire, law, cities, and Christianization.Odahl, Charles Matson. Constantine and the Christian Empire. 2nd ed. London: Routledge, 2010. Useful general scholarly overview, especially for readers/listeners who need the historical framework.MacMullen, Ramsay. Christianizing the Roman Empire: A.D. 100–400. New Haven: Yale University Press, 1984. Classic work on Christianization as a social and political process.Brown, Peter. The Rise of Western Christendom: Triumph and Diversity, A.D. 200–1000. 3rd ed. Malden, MA: Wiley-Blackwell, 2013. Excellent big-picture framing. Helps avoid the cartoon version where Constantine instantly creates medieval Christianity.Basilicas, Liturgy, Space, and the BodyYasin, Ann Marie. Saints and Church Spaces in the Late Antique Mediterranean: Architecture, Cult, and Community. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2009. Very strong for how churches organized community, memory, saints, ritual space, and sacred presence.Yasin, Ann Marie. “Sacred Installations: The Material Conditions of Liturgy in Late Antique Churches.” In Objects in Context, Objects in Use, edited by Luke Lavan, Ellen Swift, and Toon Putzeys. Leiden: Brill, 2007. Useful for altars, liturgical furnishing, and how sacred space is made materially.Bowes, Kim. Private Worship, Public Values, and Religious Change in Late Antiquity. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2008. Good for the public/private transition, elite patronage, domestic religion, and late antique religious change.Markus, R. A.

The Cult of the Saints: Its Rise and Function in Latin Christianity. Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1981. This will become even more important for your next episode on martyrs, relics, tombs, bones, and pilgrimage.MacCormack, Sabine.

Berkeley: University of California Press, 1981. Great for public ceremony, imperial ritual, Christian adaptation, and how power becomes theatrical and architectural.Lateran, Old Saint Peter's, and Holy SepulchreDavis, Raymond. The Book of Pontiffs: The Ancient Biographies of the First Ninety Roman Bishops to AD 715. Rev. ed. Liverpool: Liverpool University Press, 2010. Translation of the Liber Pontificalis. Useful for the Lateran, papal memory, church foundations, donations, and claims about Constantine.Mango, Cyril. The Art of the Byzantine Empire, 312–1453: Sources and Documents. Toronto: University of Toronto Press, 1986. Excellent sourcebook for texts on Christian art, architecture, and sacred building.Ward-Perkins, J. B. “The Shrine of St. Peter's and Its Twelve Spiral Columns.” Journal of Roman Studies 42, no. 1–2 (1952): 21–33. Very useful for Old Saint Peter's, reused columns, Solomonic column traditions, and apostolic memory. The tradition of reused marble columns at Old Saint Peter's directly supports your spolia-and-memory section.Krautheimer, Richard. “Mensa-Coemeterium-Martyrium.” Cahiers Archéologiques 11 (1960): 15–40. Important for tomb, altar, martyr memory, and architectural development.Wilken, Robert Louis. The Land Called Holy: Palestine in Christian History and Thought. New Haven: Yale University Press, 1992. Useful for Jerusalem, holy geography, sacred memory, and the Holy Sepulchre.Taylor, Joan E.

Damnatio and Renovatio Memoriae.” Memoirs of the American Academy in Rome 42 (1997): 117–148. One of the key scholarly pieces for spolia, memory, reuse, and interpretation.Kinney, Dale. “Rape or Restitution of the Past? Interpreting Spolia.” In The Art of Interpreting, edited by Susan C. Scott, 52–67. University Park: Pennsylvania State University Press, 1995. Great for your nuance: spolia is not always theft, not always theology, not always conquest. It can be practical, symbolic, aesthetic, political, or all of those at once.Brilliant, Richard, and Dale Kinney, eds. Reuse Value: Spolia and Appropriation in Art and Architecture from Constantine to Sherrie Levine. Farnham: Ashgate, 2011. Excellent broader collection on reuse, appropriation, memory, and architectural meaning.Hansen, Maria Fabricius. The Eloquence of Appropriation: Prolegomena to an Understanding of Spolia in Early Christian Rome. Rome: L'Erma di Bretschneider, 2003. Very relevant to your point that reused materials could create a meaningful Christian aesthetic, not just a cheap construction solution.Brenk, Beat. “Spolia from Constantine to Charlemagne: Aesthetics versus Ideology.” Dumbarton Oaks Papers 41 (1987): 103–109. Very useful for the practical-versus-symbolic debate.Greenhalgh, Michael. The Survival of Roman Antiquities in the Middle Ages. London: Duckworth, 1989. Good for how Roman materials, statues, columns, and monuments survive, are reused, or are reinterpreted.Pensabene, PatrizioAlso want to remind people about the website, if you're into reading we have tons of information by multiple contributors, and we got t-shirts up on the site if you're interested. Fun fact, the art is all based on the eyeball.

With billions of dollars and the future of some of Hollywood's biggest franchises potentially at stake, where does everything stand now? Zack Snyder is also looking back at his time running the DCEU. Snyder discusses losing control of his DC universe, Joss Whedon's Justice League, and his surprising involvement consulting on James Gunn's Superman.

Most leaders treat problem behavior at work as a people problem. Dustin Snyder treats it as a design problem. Dustin came up through HR, then took both the VP of HR and president seats at a 600-employee manufacturing division that had been losing money for years. The turnaround taught him something uncomfortable. The HR toolkit he had been trained on, including progressive discipline, was built to limit liability, not to change behavior. That led him to human systems theory, the finding that behavior at scale is a rational adaptation to the environment. If people don't change when you ask them to, it's because the environment hasn't changed. In this conversation, Brandon and Dustin get into why engagement surveys return symptoms instead of root causes, the UPS survey that hit record scores a few months before a companywide strike, the skilled trades team that was quitting over pride rather than pay, and the rural energy company that was hiding the exact thing its best candidates wanted. If absenteeism, turnover, or disengagement keeps coming back no matter what you try, this one gives you a different place to look. About our guest Dustin Snyder is a consultant and the author of Sink or Swim: The Human Systems Theory Approach to Business Performance, the first of three planned books. He spent his career in HR before taking on both the VP of HR and president roles at the American division of a global metals company, roughly 600 employees and $300 million in annual revenue. That turnaround became the basis for SWIM, short for strategic workforce insight mapping, the process he now uses to trace systemic employee behavior back to its root causes. He has worked with manufacturers, hospitals, software companies, and higher education.

New guest Clint Fitch, who is apparently part bat, becomes the first BTP participant to play an entire episode upside down for this Snyder-hosted game. Ede proclaims 1) his rec league lied to him when they said no participants can have the physical ability to dunk, and 2) he is an avid runner...virtually. The card collectors among us salivate over a one-of-one, OG ligament card from the recently deceased UCL repair pioneer (Too soon?). In the Ocho or Stinko halftime, Bohmbach questions his life choices, and Walling finds a new sport to train for. New characters are revealed in the fourth as Walling approximates a nameless, impatient, hunched-over, vaguely Eastern European old man, and Snyder reveals his alter ego as Mr. No-Depth Perception, captured on video grainier than the Zapruder film. Finally, Clint reveals that he chewed a 38-year-old candy bar, along with gum from the 80s that tasted like Reaganomics. #lougehrig #idontwannadrivesixmilesletalonerun #zapruderfilm #reaganomics #batboy #itsnotbrainsurgery #theantiwoman https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint https://www.patreon.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.facebook.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.twitter.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.instagram.com/benchwarmerstp/ https://www.teepublic.com/stores/benchwarmers-trivia-podcast

Today, we're diving into the world of thriving with Dr. Lee Baucom, the man behind the Thrive 15 Strategies to Building a Thriving Life. With over three decades of experience helping folks break free from just surviving to genuinely thriving, he's got the goods on building meaningful relationships and finding purpose. We're talking real talk about what it means to create a life filled with resilience and fulfillment, not just a checklist of accomplishments. Dr. Lee shares some golden nuggets on how to cultivate that thriving mindset, emphasizing that it's all about connection and intentional growth. If you've ever felt stuck in the grind, this episode is your ticket to a fresh perspective on life—so grab your favorite beverage and settle in for some enlightening banter!Dr. Lee Baucom, who cheekily calls himself the world's first "thriveologist," gives us a no-nonsense, warm-hearted masterclass on what it actually means to thrive—versus the treadmill of chasing hollow success. You get straight talk about how happiness is often a byproduct, not the target: I push us to aim for meaning, connection, and clear principles instead of hunting the next dopamine hit. We hear the neat little reframes that stick—fear as an "importance indicator" instead of just an alarm, and forgiveness as the invisible anchor that either frees you or keeps you hostage. I even confess my own history (magician kid turned therapist—because yeah, that taught me way more about people than half my grad classes) and how those early lessons shaped my thinking. Beyond philosophy, Lee lays out practical scaffolding: be a team with your partner, nurture the connection, and treat thriving like a skillset you can learn. He explains Snyder's three-part hope formula (know where you're headed, be willing to get there, and use a roadmap) and compares it to GPS—pick the beach, tell the device, and then actually drive. You'll walk away with sharp phrases you can use immediately—"be a we," "curiosity beat empathy"—and an invitation to stop settling. If you want a blend of humor, humility, and real tools for life and relationships, I think you'll like this one.Takeaways:Dr. Baucom emphasizes the importance of maintaining a team mindset in relationships, where both partners support each other like a well-oiled pickleball duo, ensuring they thrive together rather than letting their connection fester in discontent.The conversation highlights that thriving in life is not just about chasing happiness; it's about cultivating meaningful relationships and finding purpose, which ultimately leads to happiness naturally following.Forgiveness is a crucial principle for thriving, but many struggle with it because they see it as an obligation rather than an opportunity for personal liberation from past hurts.Dr. Baucom's unique take on thriving includes the idea that fear can be a valuable indicator of what matters to us, transforming it from a paralyzing force into a guiding light for personal growth.We learn that thriving requires clarity about our goals and a willingness to travel the road less taken, which often means embracing challenges rather than avoiding them for comfort.The episode serves as a reminder that our relationships mirror our individual journeys of growth; when we focus on our own thriving, we build stronger connections with those around us.Links referenced in this episode:savethemarriage.comthriveology.com

They're making barrels in Snyder County! I think I told you this episode would be about some fun stuff we did and places we went in Philly and Rhode Island when we were celebrating our son Thomas's marriage to our new daughter-in-law, Shade Adekunle.   You're probably still going to get some of that next episode, but after I posted up last episode, I got an email from US Barrel Cooperage in Snyder County. They were responding to a request for an interview, and it came together quickly. I toured their stave mill and cooperage, and we had a chat with partner Dennis DeLong and manager George Sauder about how and why this all happened in a very rural part of the state, and what exactly they do. Great stuff.  I've also got some historical stuff about barrels, and a visit to Vinnie's in Middleburg, where Dave and I met our match with two huge sandwiches.  What else? One last reminder about the upcoming Another World Music Festival -- it's this weekend! -- and what's really the last book update for a while. I've got a reminder: the Kinzua Skywalk is open for two months only! Now's the time to go leaf-peeping. Well...not quite now, the leaves haven't turned yet. But it's still an awesome view.  I've also got an extensive teaser about the next episode, because it's about Bullfrog Brewery and their 30th anniversary, which they're celebrating in Williamsport on September 19th; and I hope to see you there! What I'm Drinking Today is 2SP Rum Barrel Aged Russian Imperial Stout, because of course I'm having a barrel-aged beer, and the guy who brewed this one is a genius.   A word from our sponsor, DelGrosso Foods, features Joe Joe's Sloppy Joe sauce, and I'll let you in on a secret thing I do with it.  Next episode is going to be an interview with Bullfrog Brewery co-owner Steve Koch, and some of those places we went in Philly and Rhode Island.  See you in two weeks!

In this episode, Dr. Rebecca Dekker and Dr. Sara Ailshire examine the available evidence on planned unassisted birth, also known as freebirth, defined as intentionally giving birth without a qualified midwife or physician present.   They explore why some people choose a planned unassisted birth, including previous trauma, distrust of the medical system, barriers to preferred care, and a desire for greater autonomy. Dr. Dekker and Dr. Ailshire also explain how freebirth differs from midwife-attended home birth, what research shows about planned community birth, and the safeguards a trained birth attendant can provide during pregnancy, labor, birth, and the newborn period. Finally, they discuss investigative reporting concerning the Free Birth Society, including allegations of misinformation and preventable harm associated with its community.   Content Note: This episode includes discussions of stillbirth, maternal death, newborn death, birth trauma, and serious complications related to planned unassisted birth.   (00:03:20) What Is Freebirth?

It's James here. A few months back a friend sent me a text to an article with the headline “I lost my job, got divorced, and had to move within weeks. I found purpose in building a layoff support tool.” The situation sounded simultaneously shocking and familiar. With news of layoffs at companies like Microsoft and Meta along with daily debates about the impact of AI on labor across the globe, Amanda Snyder Cathey's story was compelling. She recognized the gap in resources between a company's human resource emails and the actual process of securing resources after a disruptive employment experience. I've been in the “fog” of a layoff before and Amanda's empathy and positive resourcefulness brought me hope for the current moment of confusion many designers face today. If you or someone you know is dealing with a job transition please share her tool RIF Surfer. Amanda also recommends Never Search Alone to find support in navigating job searches.We R Hear 4 U.

An action packed episode of BTP sees Dave host a game full of shenanigans with returning guest and brother, Tom Wortz, teaming up with Luks against the Benchwarmer team of Scott and Snyder. Scott shares his basketball stat line, Snyder is full of non-sequiturs, Tom needs some rules, and Luks is just old. The boys have some MVP fun, get a little theatrical in halftime, and end on some of the most random questions Dave can drum up. We like to believe that Tom said it best: "I didn't think there would be BS on question 2!" Well, guess what? There was! #bs #shenanigans #statline #nonsequitur #mvp https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint https://www.patreon.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.facebook.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.twitter.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.instagram.com/benchwarmerstp/ https://www.teepublic.com/stores/benchwarmers-trivia-podcast

This week we are being possessed by ghost lovers while we discuss “I Only Have Eyes for You”! We're talking the blessed return of Snyder, John Hawkes(!!), Buffy and Angel having problems nobody has ever had before, the impending breakup of Spike and Dru, and creepy writer Scott and his obsession with getting a locker monster arm into the show. We accept that Snyder is indeed a truth-seeker, do the math on what percentage of the vampire trio has to be having a bad one at any given time for their dynamic to work, what Cordelia's grandpa's breath smells like, and Willow continuing to be an unpaid intern. Everybody woke up this morning and chose projection.Note: Remember to submit any Season 2 questions to us by September 27!Send us an email at sunnydalenationpod@gmail.com or follow us on Instagram!
