As we continue our summer sermon series, Tell Me a Story, we turn our attention to the story of Joseph. Spanning nearly half of the book of Genesis, Joseph's story is a sprawling narrative full of twists and turns, betrayals and surprises. Sermon on Genesis 45:1-15, delivered by the Reverend Mary Newberg Gale on June 14th, 2026.

Eric Newman and Kate Wolf speak to journalist and music critic Barry Walters about Mighty Real: A History of LGBTQ Music 1969-2000. Spanning three decades of pop, disco, rock, funk, folk, and much more, Mighty Real looks at the power of popular music to challenge sexual norms and gender categories in ways both coded and overt. Covering headliners such as David Bowie, The Velvet Underground, Motown, Nirvana and Judas Priest, to more obscure players like Lavender Country and the lesbian label, Olivia Records, Walters shows how queerness is encoded in the very DNA of some of our most beloved songs and albums. Mighty Real also testifies to how music both reflects the reality of gay culture and, subversively, brings it into the mainstream.

Recorded at his beautiful Sessions facility in Atlanta, Georgia, Tricky sits down with hosts Phillionaire along with Claude Kelly and Chuck Harmony of Louis York for an intimate, master-class level conversation about his legacy, his creative process, and what it truly means to lead the music industry. Fresh off the announcement of his induction into the prestigious We Sound Crazy Songwriters Hall of Fame, Tricky opens up about what this ultimate honor means to a behind-the-scenes creator, viewing it as the pinnacle recognition for a lifetime dedicated to the craft of songs. Throughout the episode, Tricky takes listeners on a deep dive into his rich musical DNA, sharing how his unique approach to hooks and efficiency was forged in a powerhouse Chicago family that created iconic advertising jingles by day, hit records by night, and praised the Lord on Sundays. He reflects on his early industry breaks under the mentorship of the late legendary A&R, Louis Silas Jr., and his eventual move to Atlanta under L.A. Reid, where he learned the grueling realities of making records that don't just top charts, but actively shift global pop culture. He also shares a rare look into his legendary, brotherhood and partnership with The-Dream, breaking down their lightning-in-a-bottle studio chemistry and revealing how their creative "happy rubs" birthed unprecedented musical magic. Spanning over three decades of undeniable greatness, this candid conversation goes far beyond a standard interview. Tricky shares profound wisdom on maintaining emotional intelligence, staying fluid in a changing industry, and navigating the differences between a standard hit and a culture-shattering smash. From his meticulously crafted work on the Burlesque film soundtrack with Christina Aguilera to his relentless pursuit of the next world-dominating international superstar, Tricky proves why his name belongs on the Mount Rushmore of modern music. It is an unforgettable, gem-filled episode dedicated to giving an absolute icon his well-deserved flowers. We Sound Crazy is your backstage pass to all things music and culture.

One of the world’s greatest living artists. One of the most ambitious exhibitions Singapore has ever staged. Sugimoto’s “Form Is Emptiness” is a masterpiece — meditative, philosophical, and visually stunning. SAM Curators Amy Cheng and Angelica Ong walked us through the journey. If you care about art, perception, or time itself… go see this. On The Wide Angle, we explore one of the most significant art events of the year: Hiroshi Sugimoto: Form Is Emptiness, a major exhibition at the Singapore Art Museum running from 29 May to 4 October 2026 — and the first large‑scale solo exhibition of Sugimoto’s work in Southeast Asia. This ambitious project. Spanning five decades of Sugimoto’s practice, from photography and sculpture to architecture and conceptual art, the exhibition brings together over 60 works across 11 series, including Seascapes, Theatres, Sea of Buddha, Opticks, and Portraits. We discuss the curators’ experience working with Sugimoto’s team, the philosophical ideas behind the exhibition, and what audiences can expect from this immersive, meditative encounter with one of contemporary art’s most influential figures.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In het Midden-Oosten houden Israël en Iran zich voorlopig aan een fragiel staakt-het-vuren na een etmaal van wederzijdse aanvallen, maar de spanningen blijven hoog. Midden-Oosten-correspondent Tara Kenkhuis schetst hoe Teheran volgens hoofdonderhandelaar Halibaf blijft inzetten op een combinatie van diplomatie en militaire dreiging, terwijl in Libanon het zwakke leger en de regering klem zitten tussen Israëlische aanvallen en Hezbollah als proxy van Iran. In Hongarije ligt de politieke erfenis van Viktor Orbán onder een vergrootglas nu de anticorruptiewaakhond schat dat er tijdens zijn zestien jaar premierschap 168 miljard euro is verdwenen. Hoofdinspecteur Ferenc Biró zegt dat hooggeplaatste functionarissen worden vervolgd en dat het net mogelijk ook rond Orbán zelf sluit, terwijl de nieuwe premier Péter Magyar onder tijdsdruk uit Brussel staat om de rechtsstaat te versterken.

Spanning three centuries, this vivid narrative explores the rise of Birmingham's Jewish community through the lens of its magnificent Grade II* listed Singers Hill Synagogue, built in 1856.

I've been anxious to read this one since the moment I saw it. I mean, come on! Secrets are always cool but then Frank L. Baum? And The Pilgrim's Progress? WHAT?  Listen in as Laura DeNooyer and I chat about A Hundred Magical Reasons. note: links may be affiliate links that provide me with a small commission at no extra expense to you. The L. Frank Baum connection was a draw, but then she brought in The Pilgrim's Progress, and it took the whole story idea to a new level! I had a blast chatting with Laura and I'm excited to read this one. It'll probably be my flight read tomorrow.  EEEP!   A Hundred Magical Reasons by Laura DeNooyer Some fairy tales don't end when the story is over…they begin when the truth is finally told. At eighty-eight, Charlotte Rose Gordon has spent a lifetime guarding secrets—burdens that have turned her into the town's most notorious recluse. But before her story ends, she has one final quest: to set the past right and clear her husband's name. Even if it means facing the dragons she's spent decades avoiding. Carrie Kruisselbrink is fighting dragons of her own. Fresh out of college and desperate to escape the weight of her parents' expectations, she risks everything to chase a dream that feels just out of reach. An unlikely job with the reclusive Mrs. Gordon seems like a temporary solution. Until it becomes something much more. As Charlotte begins to unravel her past—from a stifling childhood to an extraordinary friendship with author L. Frank Baum—Carrie is drawn into a story filled with imagination, loss, and long-buried truth. But the deeper Carrie digs, the more she's forced to confront her own fears, her own choices… and the cost of living someone else's life. Because some stories were never meant to stay hidden. Spanning generations and woven with echoes of a beloved literary legacy, A Hundred Magical Reasons is a moving tale of courage, identity, and the kind of hope that only comes when truth, grace, and imagination collide. Can two women from different generations find the strength to rewrite their stories—before time runs out? Step into a story of secrets, second chances, and the courage to believe again.

In this episode of Retail War Games, I am joined by David Heacock, the founder and CEO of Filterbuy, for an absolute masterclass on what it takes to disrupt a commodity category. David walked away from a career as an options trader at Goldman Sachs to buy a struggling industrial supply house in Alabama, eventually pivoting it into one of the largest direct-to-consumer air filter manufacturers in the United States, on track to clear over $300 million in revenue. David pulls back the curtain on why he views Filterbuy strictly as a logistics business rather than an air filter brand. Because air filters are incredibly expensive and bulky to ship, David solved the scaling equation by building a massive manufacturing and fulfillment network. Spanning nine facilities across the US and Canada, his infrastructure allows Filterbuy to produce 150,000 filters daily and achieve next-day delivery to 80% of the country. We also break down the broken realities of the retail shelf space landscape, why the omnichannel strategy of matching online and in-store pricing is pricing major retailers completely out of the market, and how Filterbuy uses granular zip-code purchase data to prove exactly why traditional big-box stores are stocking the wrong sizes. From expanding into commercial B2B spaces like hospitals and hotels to their massive new push into mini-splits and air purification verticals, David's framework is a masterclass in scale, operational moat-building, and engineering an unbeatable consumer advantage.

The South African National Parks says the Kruger National Park remains one of the country's critical destinations. Spanning nearly two million hectares across Limpopo and Mpumalanga, with its eastern boundary running along the Lebombo Mountains bordering Mozambique, Kruger remains one of the world's largest protected areas. Today (30 May ) marks 100 years since the Park was proclaimed as the country's first national park. In 1926 the Kruger National Park was transformed from a game reserve to a tourist attraction that prioritises nature conservation. To date the Kruger attracts nearly two million visitors annually and has retained its standing as a top African safari destination. It has become a must visit destination for locals and visitors alike. Bongiwe Zwane caught up with Willie Aucamp, Minister of Forestry, Fisheries and the Environment

Dork's flagship podcast-slash-radio show Down With Boring is back this month with a special show recorded direct at this year's Great Escape! Spanning the festival's four days, Jake and Jamie caught up with Dork favourites in pubs, vans and gazebos across a brilliant week on the south coast. There's Shame ahead of their headline set on the Dork stage for our official closing party, Keo mid-takeover as they work their way through stage after stage, Adult DVD's Harry Hanson holding court before the band's festival run, and Julia Cumming digging into her Great Escape memories and the new solo material. It's all there, and plenty more besides.

In this episode we feature one of the giants of story telling and of long form journalism, Tracy Kidder. Kidder passed away at the age of 80 in March 2026, and so we are sharing this recording from 2011 as a way for us to celebrate his life and work, and all that he has given to readers. Spanning over 50 years, Kidder's career began at the Iowa Writers Workshop where he enrolled in 1974 after military service in the Vietnam war. He began with aspirations to be a novelist but soon found that he had talent for seeing the through line of the lives of the people all around him. And so for his entire storied career, Kidder wrote compellingly about ordinary people from all walks of life, including carpenters, home builders, computer programmers, Haitian doctors, schoolchildren, and nursing home residents  – just to name a few. Along the way he earned a Pulitzer, a National Book Award, and the Robert F. Kennedy Book Award, for his ground breaking books like The Soul of a New Machine and Mountain Beyond Mountains. His body of work included dozens and dozens of articles, and twelve books, which came to redefine an entire genre of nonfiction. He joined us in 2011 after the publication of a book called Strength In What Remains, and he tells the story of learning to write in Iowa, and then his apprenticeship turned life-long professional relationship with Richard Todd who was one of the Atlantic Magazine's famed editors. It's an extraordinary story in which Kidder reveals his mistakes, uncertainties, and vulnerabilities as much as his successes. And he does so with self effacing humor and quiet wisdom. This is a must-listen for every aspiring writer, and for every reader who wants deeper insight into the creative process and to understand how many of the stories that have come to define modern journalism were made. Tracy Kidder graduated from Harvard and the University of Iowa. He won the Pulitzer Prize, the National Book Award, the Robert F. Kennedy Award, and many other literary prizes. He is the author of Rough Sleepers, A Truck Full of Money, Good Prose (with Richard Todd), Strength in What Remains, My Detachment, Mountains Beyond Mountains, Home Town, Old Friends, Among Schoolchildren, House, and The Soul of a New Machine. Kidder passed away in 2026.

Catastrophic Diplomacy: US Foreign Disaster Assistance in the American Century (UNC Press, 2023) offers a sweeping history of US foreign disaster assistance, highlighting its centrality to twentieth-century US foreign relations. Spanning over seventy years, from the dawn of the twentieth century to the mid-1970s, it examines how the US government, US military, and their partners in the American voluntary sector responded to major catastrophes around the world. Focusing on US responses to sudden disasters caused by earthquakes, tropical storms, and floods—crises commonly known as "natural disasters"—historian Julia F. Irwin highlights the complex and messy politics of emergency humanitarian relief. Deftly weaving together diplomatic, environmental, military, and humanitarian histories, Irwin tracks the rise of US disaster aid as a tool of foreign policy, showing how and why the US foreign policy establishment first began contributing aid to survivors of international catastrophes. While the book focuses mainly on bilateral assistance efforts, it also assesses the broader international context in which the US government and its auxiliaries operated, situating their humanitarian responses against the aid efforts of other nations, empires, and international organizations. At its most fundamental level, Catastrophic Diplomacy demonstrates the importance of international disaster assistance—and humanitarian aid more broadly—to US foreign affairs. Julia F. Irwin, PhD, Yale University, 2009, is professor of history at Louisiana State University. Her research focuses on the place of humanitarian aid in twentieth-century U.S. foreign relations. Her first book, Making the World Safe: The American Red Cross and a Nation's Humanitarian Awakening (2013), is a history of U.S. international relief efforts during the World War I era; the dissertation on which it is based won the Betty M. Unterberger Dissertation Prize from the Society for Historians of American Foreign Relations. Learn more about your ad choices.

Catastrophic Diplomacy: US Foreign Disaster Assistance in the American Century (UNC Press, 2023) offers a sweeping history of US foreign disaster assistance, highlighting its centrality to twentieth-century US foreign relations. Spanning over seventy years, from the dawn of the twentieth century to the mid-1970s, it examines how the US government, US military, and their partners in the American voluntary sector responded to major catastrophes around the world. Focusing on US responses to sudden disasters caused by earthquakes, tropical storms, and floods—crises commonly known as "natural disasters"—historian Julia F. Irwin highlights the complex and messy politics of emergency humanitarian relief. Deftly weaving together diplomatic, environmental, military, and humanitarian histories, Irwin tracks the rise of US disaster aid as a tool of foreign policy, showing how and why the US foreign policy establishment first began contributing aid to survivors of international catastrophes.

The award-winning documentary by Bay Area director Yoav Potash, “Among Neighbors,” sheds light on the history of antisemitism in Poland, where both during and after the Holocaust, Jews were murdered not only by Nazis, but also by their Polish neighbors. Spanning seven decades of history, the film includes eyewitness testimony and asks what true reckoning and repair look like during today's reemergence of nationalism and authoritarianism. Government officials in Poland have called for the film to be banned under a 2018 law in Poland forbidding speech that condemns the nation's role in the Holocaust. We talk with Potash about his film and how he “worked to navigate the ethics of being a filmmaker, a Jew, and a participant in the story.” Guests: Yoav Potash, writer, producer, and director of the documentary “Among Neighbors” Learn more about your ad choices.

Europa overweegt Ruslandgezant | Poetin in Beijing | Iran bedreigt Europese internetverbindingen Rusland zet de Baltische staten onder druk met drones, jamming en nucleaire oefeningen. Arend Jan Boekestijn en Rob de Wijk duiden hoe Moskou een dreiging construeert via Estland en Letland, interne verdeeldheid aanwakkert en tegelijk met grote nucleaire manoeuvres zijn militaire zwakte maskeert. De rekrutering hapert, premies exploderen en zelfs Chinese schepen worden geraakt door Russische drones in de Zwarte Zee. China maakt van Rusland steeds duidelijker een energie-afhankelijke vazalstaat. Xi Jinping koopt fors meer Russische olie en gas, terwijl westerse sancties worden omzeild via derde landen en tijdelijke uitzonderingen. Boekestijn en De Wijk bespreken hoe de groeiende afhankelijkheid de Chinese politieke invloed vergroot en waarom vredesgezanten als Angela Merkel nu nog weinig kansrijk zijn tegenover Vladimir Poetin. Iran drijft de olieprijs op met een geblokkeerde Straat van Hormuz en bijna volle opslagtanks. Teheran dreigt buurlanden en overweegt zelfs internetkabels in de zeestraat te saboteren, terwijl de VS stuntelen tussen aanvalsdreiging en twijfelachtige doorbraken in onderhandelingen. De escalatie rond Iran, Israël, Libanon en Gaza zet zowel de wereldeconomie als de Amerikaanse en Israëlische strategie onder zware druk en laat weinig ruimte voor fouten. [Samenvatting geschreven door AI en gecontroleerd door mens] Over de Podcast Arend Jan Boekestijn en Rob de Wijk gaan onder leiding van Hugo Reitsma op zoek naar de nieuwe wereldorde. Wat betekenen oorlog, machtspolitiek en economische verschuivingen voor Europa en Nederland? In elke aflevering duiken zij in de geopolitieke actualiteit.

I'll be sharing one story at a time in audio version from my collection '5 of a Kind: Short Fiction.'  "The Gospel According to God", narrated by my own Wondervox, is the first story the collection. Spanning human history from primordial silence to a chance encounter on a Central Park bench, the story traces what happens when people mistake the infinite for a brick and the boundless for a rulebook — including Eric, a pre-literate mystic who discovers the divine lives inside every person and is killed for saying so. Threading through the ancient scenes is Melissa, a young theater major from Michigan who arrives in New York City chasing a dream and finds herself ambushed by wonder. Riding subways and navigating the beautiful chaos of the city, she begins to sense something watching back — curious and unhurried.

Rizz and Tim venture into the darkest territory of the season with an unflinching look at the long, brutal history of executions — and what these methods reveal about the societies that carried them out.Spanning thousands of years, this episode traces humanity's evolving relationship with state-sanctioned death, from ancient punishments designed as public spectacle to medieval torture systems built around confession, and finally to modern execution methods marketed as humane and scientific. Along the way, the episode confronts a disturbing paradox: as societies claim to become more civilized, their methods of killing often become more efficient, more clinical, and easier to ignore. It's not just a history of execution — it's a reflection on power, progress, and the uncomfortable reality of what justice has looked like across human historySee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
