Max Pearson presents a collection of the week's Witness History interviews from the BBC World Service. Our guest is media, culture and creative industries lecturer Sarah Jilani. We start in 1954 with the Japanese film Seven Samurai which is widely considered to be one of world cinema's most influential films. Then, we hear about the 2006 Hindi film Rang de Basanti which broke box-office records and inspired thousands of young Indians to march for justice. We delve into the BBC Archives to hear from director Leni Riefenstahl about one of the most controversial propaganda movies ever made, Triumph of the Will, which was filmed at the Nazis' Nuremberg rally in 1934. Next, we hear about the challenges of making the Hollywood 1942 classic, Casablanca, from the late son and nephew of the screenwriters. Finally, the story of the Spanish language fantasy, Pan's Labyrinth, which took the world by storm in 2006. Contributors: Hisao Kurosawa - movie producer, head of the Kurosawa Production Company and son of Seven Samurai director Akira Kurosawa.

Americans had established schools, hospitals, and businesses in China prior to the 1949 triumph of the Communists under Mao. What would be the fate of these institutions and their staff under the new dispensation? In his latest research, Dr. Sanjiao Tang, fellow at the National Library of Australia, explores the actions and reactions of Americans facing the advent of the People's Republic of China. Using the DuPont firm as a representative American business of the period, Sanjiao finds that most Americans had a “wait and see” attitude toward Mao's initial triumph. DuPont China only shut down its Shanghai headquarters a year after the Communist victory, doing so shortly before a wave of Anti-American sentiment expropriated the remaining American institutions in China. In support of his research, Dr. Sanjiao received funding from the Center for the History of Business, Technology, and Society at the Hagley Museum and Library.

The Tenpenny Files – Casey Fleming reveals how modern conflict unfolds through economic pressure, digital influence, and cultural division rather than traditional warfare. As Donald J. Trump's second presidency reshapes the political landscape, this conversation explores unrestricted warfare, foreign influence, and the growing challenge citizens face in recognizing threats operating quietly inside a free society...

Triumph formed in Toronto, Ontario, in 1975 after a chance meeting led Rik Emmett, Mike Levine and Gil Moore to embark on a marathon jam session. They immediately decided to form a band and the debut album "Triumph" was released in 1976. With hits like: Lay It On The Line, Magic Power, and Never Surrender, The Canadian power trio stands out as a visionary with soaring melodies and exceptional songs with a postitive perspective and outstanding live shows which propelled vocalist/guitarist Rik Emmett, bas guitarist/keyboardist Mike Levine and vocalist/drummer Gil Moore to stardom.  It's been 30 years since the band has toured together and now, original founding member of the band, Gil Moore, joins us to talk about what it's like to reunite and get ready for this amazing upcoming tour. The band heads out to the East Coast and Canada mid April. Show notes can be found on our website: www.rockandrollconfessional.rocks  

Randall: "So this is a Star Wars RPG where we're not Jedi, not heroes, and not important… we're basically the guy who owes Jabba rent." Tyler: "Correct. You're the reason bounty hunters have a 401k." Ash: "Finally! A system that understands my characters are emotionally complicated, morally questionable, and one hyperdrive failure away from eating space ramen." -The RPGBOT.Podcast cast, probably Show Notes In this Star Wars: Edge of the Empire RPG How to Play, the RPGBOT crew dives into the core concepts and themes of Fantasy Flight's narrative dice system, a tabletop RPG focused less on galactic heroes and more on desperate scoundrels trying to survive under Imperial rule. Unlike traditional D&D-style tabletop RPG mechanics, Edge of the Empire emphasizes storytelling consequences over binary success and failure. Using custom narrative dice pools, players roll not only to determine success, but also complications, advantages, triumphs, and catastrophic disasters. A blaster shot might hit, but now the Empire knows where you are. A failed stealth check might still reveal useful intel. Every roll advances the story. The hosts explain how the three core game lines: Edge of the Empire (scoundrels), Age of Rebellion (soldiers), and Force and Destiny (Jedi). They share identical mechanics but radically different narrative tones. Edge of the Empire specifically captures the Outer Rim survival fantasy: smugglers, bounty hunters, colonists, and criminals living paycheck-to-paycheck in a galaxy ruled by the Empire. A major highlight is the narrative dice system in Star Wars RPG, where opposed dice cancel symbols to create layered outcomes: success with threat, failure with advantage, or rare triumph and despair moments that dramatically alter scenes. This mechanic encourages cinematic storytelling reminiscent of Andor, Firefly, and The Mandalorian. The episode also introduces one of the system's defining features: the party ship. Players don't just own equipment: they share a starship that acts as a character, home base, and constant financial burden. Fuel, repairs, and debts ensure players stay motivated, reinforcing the "scrappy crew survival" tone. Finally, the hosts discuss why Edge of the Empire excels at collaborative storytelling. Instead of heroes destined to save the galaxy, players create flawed people navigating obligations, debts, and consequences, making it one of the most thematic RPG systems available. Key Takeaways Edge of the Empire focuses on scoundrels and survival rather than Jedi heroics The three core books share mechanics but offer different campaign tones (smugglers, soldiers, Jedi) The Fantasy Flight narrative dice system produces multi-layered outcomes (success + complication) Triumph and Despair create cinematic story moments beyond normal RPG success/failure Players share a ship that functions as a party hub and constant source of financial pressure The system encourages collaborative storytelling over tactical optimization Designed to emulate Firefly-style and Mandalorian-style adventures Force users exist but aren't required — the game works best as a crew drama Resource scarcity ("keeping players hungry") drives plot motivation One roll always advances the story — failure never stalls gameplay Welcome to the RPGBOT Podcast.

This week, we're so excited to share something really special: a message Levi gave at one of our Fresh Life pop-up worship nights in Kalispell. It's a word that's meant a lot to us, and we wanted to bring it here because it speaks so honestly to the tension so many of us feel—how to walk with God through both triumph and sadness. In this episode, Levi talks about what it looks like to worship God in every season, whether you're holding joy, grief, gratitude, disappointment, or some mix of all of it. It's a meaningful, Scripture-filled reminder that we don't have to be crushed by hard seasons or defined by great ones—we can bring it all to God and find Him faithful in every part of the journey.

The Dangers of Being a Firefighter and the Rewards. Few professions demand the level of courage, sacrifice, and resilience required of firefighters. Every call could mean walking into danger while others are running out. The risks are real, the stress is constant, and the long-term health consequences can be severe. Yet despite those dangers, many firefighters say the rewards of helping others make the job one of the most meaningful careers imaginable. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. David Dachinger, a retired Fire Lieutenant/EMT from Connecticut, understands both the dangers and the rewards of the job. With more than 21 years in emergency services, Dachinger has seen firsthand how the profession can shape a person's life and sometimes threaten it. The Podcast is available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube and most major podcast platforms. Today, Dachinger shares his story as a guest on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast also as an author, podcast host, cancer survivor, and advocate for first responder wellness. Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . Responding to the Unthinkable Firefighters train for disasters, but some events leave an impact that lasts forever. Dachinger recalls responding to the World Trade Center following the September 11 attacks, working at Ground Zero for a day during the massive recovery and response effort. The Dangers of Being a Firefighter and the Rewards. Available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and most major Podcast networks. Experiences like that, he says, stay with firefighters long after the call is over. “Those moments remind you how fragile life can be,” Dachinger explains. “But they also remind you why firefighters do what they do, to help people during the worst moments of their lives.” Another call nearly turned deadly when Dachinger responded to a residential fire that suddenly flashed over, a dangerous phenomenon where intense heat causes everything in a room to ignite at once. “Flashover can be fatal if you're not careful,” he recalls. “It happens fast. One moment you're fighting the fire, and the next moment the entire room ignites.” Situations like that are a constant reminder of the physical dangers firefighters face every day. The Dangers of Being a Firefighter and the Rewards. Look for The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. The Hidden Risk: Cancer in Firefighters While the flames and smoke are obvious dangers, one of the most serious threats to firefighters often appears years later. Firefighters are increasingly being diagnosed with cancer, believed to be linked to exposure to toxic chemicals, smoke, and carcinogens during fires. For Dachinger, that danger became very personal. In 2014, he was diagnosed with Stage 4 head and neck cancer, something many in the firefighting community believe may be related to occupational exposure. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and other podcast platforms. “Cancer is extremely common among firefighters,” Dachinger says. “We're exposed to toxins on a regular basis. It's something many firefighters eventually face.” The diagnosis was life-changing, forcing him to confront both his health and his future. But instead of allowing the disease to define him, Dachinger used the experience to transform his mission in life. The Dangers of Being a Firefighter and the Rewards. From Firefighter to Author and Advocate After battling cancer and surviving, Dachinger became a powerful advocate for firefighter health, resilience, and mental wellness. You can follow him on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast Facebook, Instagram, watch the episode of the podcast interview and case breakdowns on YouTube, or listen to in-depth discussions on their website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify and most major podcast platforms. He went on to become a two-time international bestselling author, appearing in the book “Cancer: From Tears to Triumph” and co-authoring the bestselling book “Live Calm With Cancer (...and Beyond).” He also co-authored another important book titled “Helping the Helpers.” The book serves as a guide for professionals who work with first responders, helping them understand the trauma, stress, and unique culture experienced by firefighters, police officers, EMTs, and dispatchers. “Helping the Helpers bridges the gap between clinical training and the real-life experiences of first responders,” Dachinger explains. “It helps therapists, leaders, and families understand what these men and women face every day.” The Dangers of Being a Firefighter and the Rewards. It is discussed across News platforms and shared on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Apple, and Spotify, where audiences continue to get their content. A Voice for First Responders Dachinger now uses multiple platforms to continue supporting the first responder community. He hosts the podcast “Responder Resilience,” which explores the challenges and triumphs faced by firefighters, EMTs, dispatchers, and law enforcement professionals. The Podcast features conversations with experts and firsthand accounts from those working on the front lines. Listeners can find the show on the major platforms such as Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube, where discussions focus on mental health, leadership, wellness, and recovery from trauma. His work has also been featured across News outlets, television interviews, social media platforms like the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn, helping bring attention to the health challenges faced by first responders. A Career Beyond the Firehouse Interestingly, Dachinger has also had success outside the emergency services world. The Dangers of Being a Firefighter and the Rewards. You can find the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, X (formerly Twitter), and LinkedIn, as well as read companion articles and updates on Medium, Blogspot, YouTube, and even IMDB. Before and during parts of his firefighting career, he worked in the music industry, earning two Grammy Award nominations as a mixing engineer and producer. During that time, he collaborated with major artists including Roberta Flack, Usher, Celine Dion, and The Isley Brothers. Today, he combines his diverse experiences to help others build resilience and overcome adversity. He also works as a peer coach with the nonprofit organization 22Zero, which helps first responders dealing with trauma and mental health challenges. More information about his work and interviews can be found on his website ResponderTV.com. The Rewards of the Fire Service Despite the dangers, from flashovers and collapsing buildings to toxic exposures and cancer, Dachinger says the fire service remains one of the most rewarding professions in the world. “Being a firefighter means serving your community at the highest level,” he says. “You're there when people need help the most.” For Dachinger, the job brought challenges he never expected, including a life-threatening illness. But it also gave him a powerful purpose, helping others long after his days inside the firehouse ended. The Dangers of Being a Firefighter and the Rewards. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. His journey shows that while the dangers of being a firefighter are real, the rewards of service, courage, and resilience can last a lifetime.

This episode explores Colossians chapter 2, showing how Christ embodies the fullness of God, has wiped out the written requirements of the law, and has disarmed spiritual powers through His victory on the cross. Paul warns against false teachers and living under the law—dietary rules, festivals, and sabbaths for Christ fulfilled the law.  The Apostle then calls believers to live in love, holiness, and confidence in Christ so they do not forfeit their reward.

Hello and welcome! I'm Jonathan Gouthier, a Pastor here at First Church in Torrington, Connecticut, and host of the Faith First Podcast. We've all experienced moments of desperation, hurt, and brokenness, searching for something—or someone—to make us whole again. Then Jesus steps in, bringing healing, hope, and the victory our hearts long for. In Him, we find the love and restoration we've been searching for all along. He takes our trauma and makes it our triumph, let's listen in to the message by our Lead Pastor Steve Darr right now…In this episode, you'll discover:How Scripture outlines the transformation from trauma to triumphWhy the examples in Scripture ought to bring us hopeWhen life is at its worst, God is at His bestWhat is the ultimate trauma, and what is the ultimate triumphThe greatest transformation of trauma to triumph is found in the cross of Christ. He carried the weight of sin, and on the cross, God the Father forsook Him. Yet it is through the cross we find victory, and through His resurrection there is found triumph. If you've been listening to the Faith First Podcast for a while, we thank you. If this is your first time, we invite you to click the subscribe button below. This will send you a notification when the next episode is launched. And until next time, remember that God takes your trauma and transforms it into triumph faith first.

In 1934, one of the most controversial propaganda movies ever made - Triumph of the Will – was filmed at the Nazis' Nuremberg rally. The two-hour picture was directed by Leni Riefenstahl, once described as Adolf Hitler's favourite filmmaker. Over four days, scenes of military marches, speeches, and parades were shot from dramatic angles. Long-focus lenses recorded close-ups of the crowds, and cameras filmed from moving cars. But, while to some Riefenstahl was an artistic genius, to many others, she glorified a regime that would go on to be responsible for the death of millions. And for portraying a genocidal dictator as a god-like saviour. Jane Wilkinson has been through the BBC archives to find out more.Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive.

Fluent Fiction - Hungarian: Melody of Courage: Ágota's Spring Concert Triumph Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/hu/episode/2026-03-09-22-34-01-hu Story Transcript:Hu: A nap első sugarai lágyan simogatták a Balaton környéki kis falu rétjeit.En: The first rays of the sun gently caressed the meadows around the small village near Balaton.Hu: Az itt élők már ébredtek a tavasz ígéreteire.En: The locals were already waking to the promises of spring.Hu: Az iskola udvarán vidám gyerekzsivaj hangzott, és virágzó almafák illata töltötte be a levegőt.En: The sound of cheerful children's chatter echoed in the schoolyard, and the scent of blooming apple trees filled the air.Hu: A falu legnagyobb eseménye, a tavaszi koncert, mindenkit izgatottá tett.En: The village's biggest event, the spring concert, had everyone excited.Hu: Ágota, egy csendes, szemüveget viselő lány, éppen a hegedűtokját vitte az iskola zenetermébe.En: Ágota, a quiet girl who wore glasses, was carrying her violin case to the school's music room.Hu: A sokszor hallott dallama az ujjaiban égett, de a szorongás növekvő terheneként nehezedett rá.En: Many times she had heard the melody burn in her fingers, but anxiety weighed on her like an increasing burden.Hu: Ágota régóta arról álmodott, hogy szólót játszhat a koncerten. De a félelem mindig visszatartotta őt.En: Ágota had long dreamed of playing a solo at the concert, but fear always held her back.Hu: Mellette Zoltán sétált, zongorabillentyűk varázsa oly természetes volt számára, mint a lélegzés.En: Walking beside her was Zoltán, for whom the magic of piano keys was as natural as breathing.Hu: Mosolygó szemeivel biztatta Ágotát.En: With his smiling eyes, he encouraged Ágota.Hu: "Ágota, meg fogod csinálni! Együtt fogunk gyakorolni, és fantasztikus leszel!" lelkesítette a lányt.En: "Ágota, you will do it! We will practice together, and you will be fantastic!" he motivated her.Hu: Az elkövetkezendő hetekben, a két diák minden szabad percet a próbateremben töltött.En: In the following weeks, the two students spent every spare minute in the rehearsal room.Hu: Zoltán segített Ágotának kiválasztani egy nehezebb darabot, ami kihívás volt számára, de megmutatta a tehetségét.En: Zoltán helped Ágota choose a more challenging piece that was difficult for her but showcased her talent.Hu: Ahogy a koncert napja közeledett, Ágota izgalma nőtt.En: As the day of the concert approached, Ágota's excitement grew.Hu: A főpróbán bármilyen kis hiba is megtörtént, szinte összeroppant tőle.En: At the dress rehearsal, any small mistake nearly crushed her.Hu: Egyszer csak megállt a játék közepén, és megszólalni sem tudott.En: At one point, she stopped playing in the middle of the performance and couldn't speak.Hu: Könnyek gyűltek a szemébe.En: Tears welled up in her eyes.Hu: De Zoltán nem habozott.En: But Zoltán did not hesitate.Hu: Odaugrott mellé, és rögtönzött egy duettet a darabból.En: He jumped next to her and improvised a duet from the piece.Hu: Harmonikus zongorajátékával finoman vezette vissza Ágotát a dallam fonalára.En: With his harmonious piano playing, he gently led Ágota back to the thread of the melody.Hu: Ágota mély levegőt vett, és ismét játszani kezdett.En: Ágota took a deep breath and began to play again.Hu: A fényteli teremben csak a zene hangzott, és Ágota elhatározása, hogy nem adja fel.En: In the light-filled room, only the music sounded, and Ágota's determination not to give up.Hu: Elérkezett a nagy nap.En: The big day arrived.Hu: A színpadot gyönyörűen feldíszítették a helyi virágokkal, odakint a nap aranyszínű fénye csillogott a Balaton vizén.En: The stage was beautifully decorated with local flowers, and outside, the golden light of the sun glistened on the waters of Balaton.Hu: Ágota szívverése gyors volt, de ahogy színpadra lépett, Zoltán bátorító mosolya erőt adott neki.En: Ágota's heart was racing, but as she stepped onto the stage, Zoltán's encouraging smile gave her strength.Hu: Elkezdte a darabját, és minden hang tiszta volt, minden rezdülésében ott volt a kitartás és a zene iránti szeretet.En: She began her piece, and every note was clear, every movement carried persistence and a love for music.Hu: A közönség figyelmesen követte őt, a levegő vibrált.En: The audience followed her attentively, the air vibrated.Hu: Ahogy véget ért a darab, hatalmas tapsvihar tört ki.En: As the piece ended, a storm of applause erupted.Hu: Ágota könnyes szemekkel meghajolt.En: Ágota bowed with tearful eyes.Hu: Pillantása találkozott Zoltánéval, aki mellé lépett, hogy együtt osszák meg a siker örömét.En: Her gaze met Zoltán's, and he stepped beside her to share the joy of success together.Hu: A koncert után Ágota már nem ugyanaz a lány volt: többé nem félt a hibázástól.En: After the concert, Ágota was no longer the same girl: she no longer feared making mistakes.Hu: Megtanulta, hogy a barátok támogatása és az együttműködés kulcsfontosságú.En: She learned that friends' support and collaboration are essential.Hu: Az volt az az este, amikor Ágota megismerte önmagát, és a tehetsége valódi fényében ragyogott.En: That was the night when Ágota discovered herself, and her talent shined in its true light.Hu: Ahogy a nap lement a Balaton fölött, egy dolog világossá vált: a kis falu új sztárra talált, aki most már tudta, hogy a zene nem csak hangok összessége, hanem szívből jövő mese, amit érdemes megosztani.En: As the sun set over Balaton, one thing became clear: the small village had found a new star, who now knew that music is not just a collection of sounds, but a heartfelt story worth sharing.

The one who steals must steal no longer; instead he must labor, doing good with his own hands, so that he will have something to share with the one who has need. You must let no unwholesome word come out of your mouth, but only what is beneficial for the building up of the one in need, that it would give grace to those who hear – Ephesians 4 From Ephesians 4, Alison shares four ways in which our new self is the flip side of the old self: the thief becomes a giver, and the gossip a speaker of grace.

Saint Gregory Palamas, who was from Asia Minor, was from childhood reared in the royal court of Constantinople, where he was instructed in both religious and secular wisdom. Later, while still a youth, he left the imperial court and struggled in asceticism on Mount Athos, and in the Skete at Beroea. He spent some time in Thessalonica being treated for an illness that came from his harsh manner of life. He was present in Constantinople at the Council that was convened in 1341 against Barlaam of Calabria, and at the Council of 1347 against Acindynus, who was of like mind with Barlaam; Barlaam and Acindynus claimed that the grace of God is created. At both these Councils, the Saint contended courageously for the true dogmas of the Church of Christ, teaching in particular that divine grace is not created, but is the uncreated energies of God which are poured forth throughout creation: otherwise it would be impossible, if grace were created, for man to have genuine communion with the uncreated God. In 1347 he was appointed Metropolitan of Thessalonica. He tended his flock in an apostolic manner for some twelve years, and wrote many books and treatises on the most exalted doctrines of our Faith; and having lived for a total of sixty-three years, he reposed in the Lord in 1359.His holy relics are kept in the Cathedral of Thessalonica. A full service was composed for his feast day by the Patriarch Philotheus in 1368, when it was established that his feast be celebrated on this day. Since works without right faith avail nothing, we set Orthodoxy of faith as the foundation of all that we accomplish during the Fast, by celebrating the Triumph of Orthodoxy the Sunday before, and the great defender of the teachings of the holy Fathers today.
