En Diez Capital Radio, Hugo Luengo impulsa un espacio orientado a la reflexión y al pensamiento crítico, articulado desde una perspectiva analítica y rigurosa, deliberadamente alejada de las simplificaciones habituales. Hugo Luengo arranca con una idea crítica: el relato de los medios nos aprisiona y nos convierte en ciudadanos desconfiados que no comparten el engaño que sostiene al Estado. Para alejarse de eso, se va a 5 historias clásicas de la tradición inglesa, que según él son herederas de la primera democracia liberal - la que nace con la Revolución de Cromwell (1642-51) y la Gloriosa (1688-89) y que da origen a Gran Bretaña. Esas 5 historias son el retrato de las virtudes burguesas del homo britannicus que superó el absolutismo un siglo antes que el resto: 1. Robinson Crusoe (1719) de Daniel Defoe: El emprendedor. Arrojado a una isla, reconstruye la sociedad que lo expulsó. Industrioso, práctico, sacrificado y moral. Es el mito que vemos en Cervantes, James Joyce, Marx, Coetzee, y en el cine con El marciano o El náufrago. Luengo lo define como Emprendedor. 2. Los viajes de Gulliver (1726) de Jonathan Swift: 300 años de esta obra. Respuesta ácida a Robinson. Historia de gigante entre minúsculos y minúsculo entre gigantes. Moralista contra la estupidez y la mezquindad humana. Su famosa frase: "las leyes son como las telarañas, atrapan a las moscas pequeñas y dejan escapar a las grandes". Está en el deseo de libertad de Orwell o Toole, en Star Trek, y Luengo lo ve hasta en un anuncio del Mundial 2026 con Cucurella arrastrando por el Támesis una nave con los 'enanos' de su selección. Crítico. 3. Alicia en el país de las maravillas (1865) de Lewis Carroll: Cae por un pozo a un mundo de humanos y criaturas antropomórficas. Relato fantástico de absurdos y paradojas, crítica de la sociedad victoriana. Como Gulliver, Alicia crece y se encoge. Impacto brutal en cultura, música, TV, ópera y religión. Anticipó el surrealismo. Soñador. 4. La Isla del Tesoro (1883) de Robert Louis Stevenson: Viaje y aventura en el Pacífico descubierto por Cook. Tono crítico sobre la ambición y la riqueza que busca el joven Jim Hawkins. Al final, valora el riesgo personal como motor de la vida. Sin aventura, la sociedad se vuelve funcionarial. Elogio de la piratería siempre actual. Aventurero. 5. Atrapados en el hielo de Ernest Shackleton (1914-1916): La épica del fracaso. En plena I Guerra Mundial, parte de Grytviken el 5 de diciembre de 1914 en el Endurance y regresa el 20 de mayo de 1916 tras hundirse el barco en Weddell en noviembre de 1915. El viaje se convierte en salvación: sobreviven los 28. Su modelo de gestión del fracaso se enseña hoy en las Business Schools del mundo. Héroe homérico que actúa por principio de reconocimiento y no de culpa. Gestor del fracaso. Conclusión para tu programa: Luengo cierra diciendo: Así queda retratado el homo britannicus: emprendedor, crítico, soñador, aventurero y gestor del fracaso. Y con Alicia se une a ese lema: "soñar para ser libre".

Send us Fan MailIn this episode, I'm joined by Travis Wagner, college lacrosse goalie and coach, who shares his journey from becoming a goalie at just three years old to developing into a college starter and coach. Travis talks about how watching indoor lacrosse inspired him to play goalie, the mentors who shaped his game, and how playing box lacrosse helped him improve his angles and presence in the cage.We talk about Travis's unique approach to goalie mechanics, including his bottom-hand philosophy, keeping his hips loaded, preventing his knees from buckling, and using his size to fill the cage. Travis also shares how strength training, eye exercises, studying shooters, and developing consistent pregame routines helped him improve both physically and mentally.This conversation also dives into the mental side of goaltending, including dealing with slumps, avoiding overthinking, staying loose, finding your own style, and learning how to stay present. Travis also explains what he looks for when coaching and recruiting goalies, from communication and clearing ability to body language, footwork, and how players respond after giving up a goal.In this episode, we talk about:How Travis became a goalie at just three years oldHow Pat O'Toole and indoor lacrosse inspired himThe role Travis's grandfather played in his early developmentLearning from Willie Clancy, Dennis Costanza, and Blaze ReardonHow playing box lacrosse helped his field goalie gameDeveloping his own unique goalie styleTravis's bottom-hand dominant goalie philosophyUsing height and positioning to fill the cageKeeping the hips loaded on five-hole savesPreventing the knees from bucklingHow glute medius strength helped his goalie movementStrength training and goblet squats for goaliesBreaking his thumb six times and developing additional protectionTransferring to Cortland and becoming a four-year starterUsing eye exercises to improve visual trackingStudying shooters and learning their tendenciesDeveloping consistent pregame routinesDealing with a difficult slump during his junior yearUsing simple phrases to stay present and focusedLearning from hockey goalies and baseball catchersWhy there is no one-size-fits-all goalie styleWhat Travis looks for when recruiting college goaliesThe importance of communication and clearingHow goalies should respond after giving up a goalSupporting and celebrating teammatesWhy goalies should enjoy the moment and appreciate the gameKey TakeawaysFind your own style. Travis emphasizes that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to playing goalie. Every goalie has different strengths, body types, and athletic abilities, so the goal is to find what works for you.Stay present instead of overthinking. Travis talks about how overthinking his movements hurt his performance during a difficult stretch. Simple reminders like “Be here now” helped him refocus on the moment.Build your athleticism. Strengthening the hips, glutes, and lower body can help goalies maintain better positioning and move more effectively in the cage.Study the game. Travis learned to recognize shooting tendencies by studying shooters and having conversations with his teammates about where they would shoot in different situations.Communication matters. For goalies going through the recruiting process, Travis emphasizes loud, clear communication with defenders and being someone a coach can hear and trust from the cage.Your response after a goal matters. Coaches notice body language and how a goalie responds after giving up a goal. Resetting quickly and staying engaged with your teammates can be just as important as the save itself.Memorable Quote“Be where your feet are. Enjoy every moment that you're playing and just appreciate the brotherhood that comes with playing this game.”About Travis WagnerTravis Wagner is a college lacrosse goalie and coach who played at Cortland, where he became a four-year starter. After developing his game through field and box lacrosse, Travis continued to grow as a player through athletic training, studying the position, and learning from other goalies. He now coaches and works with goalies, bringing his experience as a player into his approach to developing the next generation of goaltenders.Final ThoughtsTravis's story is a great reminder that becoming a better goalie is about more than just making saves. Developing your own style, staying athletic, studying the game, preparing mentally, and learning from setbacks all play a role in becoming a better goaltender. Most importantly, Travis reminds goalies to stay present, enjoy the game, and appreciate the brotherhood that comes with playing lacrosse.Support the show

Send us Fan MailFREEBIE AND THE BEAN Despite a brief detour off The Odyssey overpass, TGTPTU's back on the case with Season 17's concluding four 1x1's. To kick off this celebration of films we'd otherwise not investigate during another season, the 70's anti-establishment comedy that arguably might have spawned the buddy-cop genre FREEBIE AND THE BEAN (1974). Made by (un)celebrated creative Richard Rush, the bewildering director of such films as the Academy Award for Best Director-nominated comedy The Stunt Man (1980) starring Peter O'Toole and the Golden Raspberry Worst Film-winning erotic thriller Color of Night (1994) starring Bruce Willis, Freebie and the Bean stars James Caan as the titular Freebie for whom the Intelligence Squad beat is a grift to gain gratis goods and, as his partner, Alan Arkin who despite not being Chicano plays the titular roles' pejorative half as a cop who is closer to by-the-book and who suspects his wife (played by Valerie Harper) of cheating on him. Set in San Franscisco as determined by what could easily be the third character in the movie for as much screentime as the iconic Transamerica Pyramid gets, Freebie and Bean must more-or-less reenact the plot of Bullitt with more car crashes and a less deceased person under protection in this situational comedy occurring the weekend of the Super Bowl with the wild and crazy premise of cops being bad at their jobs. The film was good enough, or late-70s TV bad enough, to garner a one-season TV series. This episode, we discover Ryan is an easy laugh, Ryan stumps Thomas who struggles to come up with a 70s comedy he likes, and Ken, whose 1x1 pick this movie was, has advertising trivia deets and clowns on the Temu SouperBolls branding.

This Week on the Hudson Valley Disc Golf Podcast: Alex, Corey, Jaimen, Randy, Tim, Joe and Evan were here and Jasan made a surprise appearance to help us go over the week that was in local disc golf. Unfortunately, we didn't get to many of the local events because of episode length and time constraints but we did get to a few of the leagues that the guys played in. We spent most of our time talking about Pyramid Quads with Jaimen, Randy and Corey, Corey also played in the Discmania Presents Sunshine Open at 501 and Mile Marker 63 - Powered By Abreu Karol and GMT. Tim pulled a Jay Gorsage and set up a Draft App so we could make picks for Minekill this weekend. Randy wanted to call the app #thirsttrapsofhvdgp but, as the guy who would probably say it the most, I vetoed that idea. We also got a sneak peak at the brackets for the Summer Battle Royale, if you're playing, it may be old news by now but it was still fun to go over the brackets. We finished it off with a round of Disc or No Disc and reminders to register for Minekill AM's, the HelderBERG Championships 2 and OKDGC Circuit Challenge.
