Thirty years ago, a modest Canadian documentary called Project Grizzly turned into an unlikely cult classic, winning over high-profile admirers such as Quentin Tarantino. Directed by Peter Lynch, the film follows Troy Hurtubise — an unconventional metalworker and amateur inventor who survived a near-fatal grizzly bear attack as a young man. Determined to face a grizzly again, Troy sets out to build a bear-proof suit of armour from a mix of scrap metal, rubber, hockey equipment and duct tape. But what Peter ultimately captures on film is something more complicated: a portrait of a man whose bold dream slowly becomes an all-consuming obsession. Three decades later, Peter sits down with guest host Talia Schlanger in the Q studio to look back on the film and its enduring legacy.

The history of tiramisu, that beloved Italian dessert known for its layers of coffee-soaked ladyfingers, creamy mascarpone, and dusting of cocoa, is a tale woven from legend, culinary innovation, and a dash of controversy, much like the dessert itself which translates to "pick me up" or "cheer me up" in Italian, a nod to its invigorating blend of caffeine and sugar. While some romanticized accounts trace its roots back to the 17th or 18th century, suggesting inspirations from earlier treats like Zuppa Inglese—a layered English trifle adapted in Italy with custard, sponge, and liqueur—or even the rustic Sbatudin, a simple whipped egg yolk and sugar cream from mid-19th-century peasant kitchens in Treviso, the modern form of tiramisu as we recognize it today emerged far more recently, in the post-World War II era of northern Italy's Veneto and Friuli-Venezia Giulia regions. These ancestral desserts provided the foundational elements: the custard-like richness, the soaking of biscuits, and the energizing additions, but tiramisu's true genesis lies in the vibrant culinary scene of the 1960s and 1970s, when Italy was rebuilding and innovating in its kitchens. One of the most widely accepted origin stories points to the restaurant Le Beccherie in Treviso, where, on Christmas Eve 1969, pastry chef Roberto Linguanotto, collaborating with Alba di Pillo, the wife of owner Ado Campeol, accidentally created the dessert while experimenting with a vanilla ice cream recipe; Linguanotto reportedly dropped mascarpone into a bowl of beaten eggs and sugar, liked the result, and then incorporated coffee-dipped savoiardi biscuits and cocoa powder to form the layered delight that would soon grace their menu by 1972. This version emphasizes simplicity and fresh ingredients, eschewing heavy liqueurs in the original recipe, though later adaptations often include Marsala wine or coffee liqueur like Kahlua for added depth. However, competing claims muddy the waters: some assert it was born in the 1950s in Treviso's brothels, where clever madams served it as an aphrodisiac to energize clients, leveraging the stimulating properties of coffee and chocolate, while tales of a young mother sharing her post-childbirth restorative recipe with Le Beccherie's chefs circulate. Others push the timeline further back, crediting Mario Cosolo in Friuli-Venezia Giulia with a 1938 invention called Coppa Vetturino, a precursor featuring mascarpone and chocolate, or even an early 1900s dessert from Sacile that resembled a layered treat with similar components. There's also a Sienese legend from the 17th century, linking it to a visit by Grand Duke Cosimo the third de' Medici, though this seems more apocryphal, as no written records of tiramisu appear until the 1960s, with its first print mention in a 1981 Veneto cookbook and official recognition in dictionaries by 1983. Despite these debates, Treviso proudly claims tiramisu as its own, with the Accademia del Tiramisù founded to preserve its heritage, and in 2013, the Veneto region officially designated it as a traditional product, while Friuli stakes its claim through local festivals and historical assertions. The dessert's evolution accelerated in the 1970s as it spread beyond local eateries; by the 1980s, tiramisu had conquered international palates, particularly in the United States, where Italian immigrants and restaurateurs like Walter Potenza of homonymous Walters, and Lidia Bastianich introduced it at their restaurants in Providence and New York in 1981, sparking a craze that saw it featured in newspapers as an "obsession" by 1989, with variations popping up in San Francisco and beyond. This surge in popularity coincided with the global rise of Italian cuisine, fueled by media, cookbooks, and the dessert's approachable no-bake preparation, making it a staple in home kitchens worldwide.

In this special episode of the Experience Strategy Podcast, Joe Pine shares with Dave and Aransas background about the book!  To celebrate the release of his new book, The Transformation Economy. The conversation traces the book's origins from the final two chapters of The Experience Economy, explores why the world is finally ready for this idea, and unpacks key frameworks — including encapsulation (preparation, reflection, and integration) — that make experiences truly transformative. The trio also discusses the role of AI in enabling transformation, why businesses must foster human flourishing, and who stands to benefit most from reading the book. Key Topics Why now for The Transformation Economy? Joe waited over 25 years because "the world wasn't ready" and he "didn't know enough." Research through Stone Mantle's collaboratives, the World Experience Organization, and post-COVID shifts toward meaningful experiences signaled the time had come. Catalysts for transformation. The most prevalent catalyst is trauma — illness, loss, job changes, retirement. These disruptions create the conditions where people seek to see, do, and be differently. The four spheres of human flourishing: Health & well-being Wealth & prosperity Knowledge & wisdom Purpose & meaning Encapsulation — the essential framework (Chapter 4): To turn a memorable experience into a transformative one, you need three layers around the core experience: preparation (priming beforehand), reflection (making meaning afterward — which retroactively increases the value of the experience), and integration (sustaining change over time). The business model problem. Most companies get paid for the event, not the outcome. Shifting to outcome-based pricing — as McKinsey is doing with AI projects — aligns incentives with lasting transformation. AI as a transformation enabler. AI makes the hardest parts of delivering transformation (especially ongoing integration and support) dramatically more accessible and affordable. Who Should Read This Book? Companies in education, finance, health, and well-being Any business focused on improving the lives of families and individuals The creator economy — creators already doing transformation work who need frameworks to do it well and realize its full value Notable Quotes "The entire raison d'être of business is to foster human flourishing." — Joe Pine "Reflection retroactively increases the value of the experience." — Joe Pine "If you don't do it, it's just lazy." — Aransas Savas, on using available technology to encapsulate experiences Mentioned in This Episode The Transformation Economy by Joe Pine The Experience Economy by Joe Pine & Jim Gilmore Stone Mantel's Experience Strategy Collaboratives The World Experience Organization (founded by James Wallman) Arrival 360 Conference Daniel Kahneman's experiencing self vs. remembering self McKinsey's outcome-based AI pricing model Podcast Sponsors: Learn more about Stone Mantel https://www.stonemantel.co Sign up for the Experience Strategist Substack here: https://theexperiencestrategist.substack.com

EPYSODE 68: Swaddling Songs, by Mellow Candle. Guest: Mellow Candle's Alison O'Donnell. Additional commentary by my twin brother Maurice. This week we drop the needle on a true cult classic. Released in 1972 and largely overlooked in its time, this singular album has since become a holy grail of British folk-rock, revered for its mysticism and haunting beauty. Led by the spellbinding voices of Clodagh Simonds and Alison Williams (now Alison O'Donnell), Mellow Candle fused pastoral folk with progressive rock flourishes, baroque arrangements, and flashes of jazz and classical influence. Tracks like “Sheep Season” and “Dan the Wing” unfold with dramatic, almost otherworldly crescendos. With Alison's help, we explore the story behind the band, the circumstances that shaped Swaddling Songs, and why it vanished so quickly after its release, only to be rediscovered decades later by collectors and crate diggers. Light a candle, settle in, and join us as Vinyl Relics revisits one of the most enchanting lost records of the early '70s. I hope you dig Swaddling Songs as much as I do. -Farmer John ===CONNECT & SUPPORT=== Transport yourself into the realm of grooviness by supporting us on Patreon using this link --> patreon.com/FarmerJohnMusic Use this link to follow us on Facebook --> https://www.facebook.com/farmerjohnmusic/ Use this link to follow us on Instagram --> https://www.instagram.com/vinylrelics/ Use this link to follow us on TikTok --> https://www.tiktok.com/@vinylrelicspodcast Use this link to follow us on BlueSky --> https://bsky.app/profile/farmerjohnmusic.bsky.social And find us on X @VinylRelicsPod Email me @ ⁠farmerjohnmusic@gmail.com⁠ ===LINKS=== Check out all of Alison's music here: https://alisonodonnell.bandcamp.com   ===THE MUSIC=== Songs used in this Epysode, in order of appearance. Here's a link to a Spotify playlist for all the tracks featured:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0jtVg6Mft71ZW9Niixuma1?si=f05d853ad16b44cb *denotes track is not available on Spotify.

SUMMARY:  In this episode of Ops Experts Club, Aaron Hovivian and Terryn Turner break down how to build scorecards that actually drive performance, not just reporting. They walk through what to track, why it matters, and how to tie metrics directly to people and roles using EOS Level 10 meetings. The conversation emphasizes that numbers should tell a story, evolve as the business evolves, and align with company goals rather than existing just for the sake of tracking. Aaron and Terryn share real-world examples across marketing, sales, customer support, and operations, showing how role-specific metrics create clarity, accountability, and faster problem-solving. From email performance and lead quality to sales close rates and support ticket turnaround, this episode gives operators a practical framework for using scorecards to see what's really happening in the business—and to fix issues before they become costly problems.   Minute by Minute: 00:00 Introduction to Ops Experts Club 01:20 The Importance of Scorecards in Business 04:51 Tailoring Metrics to Individual Roles 09:39 Creating a Wish List of Metrics 12:15 Understanding the Story Behind the Numbers 16:51 Role-Specific Metrics for Marketing and Sales 20:21 Conclusion and Key Takeaways

In this episode, we discuss why the right to an attorney remains one of the most important protections in the American legal system, using Gideon v. Wainwright to examine how due process actually functions in practice. We explore the recent surge in gold and silver prices, weighing inflation fears against global instability and market psychology, and consider how Trump's negotiation style plays out in diplomacy and financial markets. We also examine a new film about Melania Trump, why it misses the larger political moment, and how culture increasingly drifts away from economic reality. We then turn to the so-called Great Wealth Transfer, where we explore how inheritances shape labor markets, housing prices, charitable giving, and long-term economic behavior, along with the unintended consequences that massive shifts in wealth can create for policy, taxation, and inequality. 00:00 Introduction and Overview 00:29 The Story Behind the Right to an Attorney (Gideon v.

In this conversation, I talk about what it really takes to build something without losing yourself in the process. We talk about the first beauty brand I built that ended prematurely. What that experience taught me about rushing, forcing, and tying my worth to outcomes. And how Ra Beauty came together slowly, over the years, even though it looked fast from the outside. This isn't a conversation about products or aesthetics, it's about how you lead when things don't go as planned. And what changes when you stop building from pressure and start building from stillness and ease. If you're rebuilding after something didn't work.If you're tired of pushing just to prove you can.If you're learning how to stay grounded while still moving forward. This episode will make sense to you.

(Jan 23, 2026) A replica portrait of George Washington owned by Clarkson University sold at auction today for $2.8 million. We hear the fascinating story behind the portrait that was one of the inspirations for the dollar bill. Also: The Adirondack Park Agency approved a battery storage site near Great Sacandaga Lake at its meeting yesterday.

This episode of The Kibbe & Friends Show delivers a long-overdue review of Ford vs Ferrari, a modern racing classic that has become required viewing for car fans everywhere. With Daytona season approaching and January's auction buzz still fresh, the timing couldn't be better to revisit the story of Ford's battle against Ferrari at Le Mans and the people who made it happen. It's a film that captures the emotion, danger, and obsession behind endurance racing while telling a powerful human story along the way. Rob Kibbe, Justin “Corndog” Cornette, and producer Bernie McPartland break down why Ford vs Ferrari works on every level — from Christian Bale's unforgettable performance as Ken Miles, to the tension between racers and the boardroom, to the brutal reality of 24-hour competition. The GT40 becomes more than just a car, it becomes a character, and the movie becomes more than just a race film. It's a story about passion, sacrifice, and the cost of chasing perfection at full throttle. The post K&F Show #354: Race Season, January Auction Record Sales, & the Story Behind It All // Car MOVIE Review “Ford vs Ferrari” first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

Has God called you to something… only for it to fail completely?Bill Bright failed TWICE at UCLA in the spring of 1951—zero salvation decisions. But after saturating the third attempt with 24/7 prayer, over half the attendees at the first event received Christ. In a matter of weeks, it exploded onto the UCLA campus. The fall of 1951 launched Campus Crusade for Christ on a breath-taking trajectory for the next 50 years, growing into the largest global missions movement in modern history. Also known as Cru in the US, Campus Crusade celebrates its 75th anniversary this year.Brad Bright shares the untold story: success isn't in the plan—it's in prayer focused dependence on God.LIKE, SUBSCRIBE; hit the BELL for more God is the Issue Podcast episodes.

Two of the world's most accomplished blind climbers, Erik Weihenmayer and Andy Holzer share their story, from the serendipitous first meeting on a high ledge in the Dolomites to climbing Everest from opposite sides. It's a testament to human connection, resilience, and the art of overcoming “impossible” challenges.

Ronald Reagan first visited the Berlin Wall in 1978, during the Carter administration. While there, he reportedly told his aides: “We've got to find a way to bring this down,” says Mark Joseph, producer of the 2024 film “Reagan.”“Reagan” is a biographical movie starring Dennis Quaid as Ronald Reagan and Jon Voight as KGB agent Viktor Petrovich.In this episode, Joseph shares why it took nearly 20 years to bring this film to the big screen, and what it was like to film during the height of COVID-era restrictions.Joseph, who's also the founder of MJM Entertainment, is the author of “Making Reagan: A Memoir From the Producer of the Reagan Film.”The movie is based on Paul Kengor's book “The Crusader: Ronald Reagan and the Fall of Communism.”That book, Joseph said, helped him understand Reagan and his passionate drive to end what he called the “evil empire,” the Soviet Union.“There have been hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of books written on Ronald Reagan, but Kengor was the only one who went to the church Reagan grew up in and said: ‘Can I see the sermons that young Ronald Reagan would have heard as a child?' And the current pastor said they're in the basement, in the box. Nobody has ever asked to see them before.' So when he opened the box, he found a lot of anti-communist sermons by the preacher,” Joseph said.The film received sharply divided reviews: On “Rotten Tomatoes,” 98 percent of the audience gives a positive rating, but only 18 percent of critics' reviews are positive.That may be a new record.“We have the greatest gap between critics and film goers of any movie ever made in Hollywood history. ... I'm really proud of that. I don't make movies for critics. I make movies for the film goers,” Joseph said.Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

In this episode of the Artist Academy podcast, I sit down with Lennon Bone, founder of Stop the Starving Artist, to talk about why connecting with people matters more than perfect content or clever marketing.We explore how storytelling, values, and real human experience help audiences connect with art, why fear of judgment keeps artists stuck, and how reframing marketing as an exchange—rather than manipulation—can change everything. If you've ever struggled with sharing your story or felt uncomfortable selling your work, this conversation will help you approach both with more clarity and confidence.

This time around, we have an experimental format, featuring the first episode of a brand-new podcast launching next week, Drug Story. I rarely feature episodes from other shows, but I think this one is well worth your time.

Each episode explores one disease and one drug, and it kicks off with EpiPen and food allergies. A quick teaser: What if I told you that a well-meaning medical recommendation may have caused millions of kids to develop food allergies?Make sure to subscribe to Drug Story on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts. You can also simply go to DrugStory.co and learn more.The host is Thomas Goetz. He is a senior impact fellow at the University of California Berkeley School of Public Health, and much earlier, Thomas was the executive editor at WIRED, which he led to a dozen National Magazine Awards from 2001 to 2013. His writing has been repeatedly selected for the Best American Science Writing and Best Technology Writing anthologies.P.S.
