Core drilling just started on the boat-shaped ridge in eastern Turkey that some people have called Noah's Ark since a Turkish Army captain spotted it from the air in 1959. The Durupinar formation sits in the Tendurek Mountains near Mount Ararat, about 164 meters long — close to the 300-cubit length in Genesis. Modern geologists have treated it for decades as limestone and volcanic clay carved by erosion. David Fasold measured it in the 1980s, called it a fossilized deck, then later dismissed the ark theory himself. Now a Sivas Cumhuriyet University team, with Turkish government approval, has run the first real core drill into it. Andrew Jones says the biggest early finding is that the formation is soil, not a solid rock mass worn into a ship shape. Radar work has picked up right angles, possible tunnels, and voids a few meters down. Earlier soil tests found about three times more organic matter inside the outline than on the hillside next to it. The samples are headed to labs in Ankara. A full report is not expected until 2027. The fundraising side did not wait. Lauren Witzke, handling marketing for the Noah's Ark Scans effort, has already said university curricula will need to be rewritten and Darwinism dismantled — while an underground robot, adapted from a machine built to explore wombat burrows, is still collecting footage. That is the gap worth watching: a real dig at a formation science wrote off and a press line that already knows the ending. Pat also covered: Sharon Stone tells Michelle Obama they didn't test tampons on human blood until 2026, then says if men got pregnant, you'd get an abortion from a vending machine. Gavin Newsom on 2028: no deadline, just fate, and his kids are the focus group with veto power. Philadelphia teacher Hannah Gann told activists she was Palestinian, Tunisian, and black. She finally admitted, “I lied about my identity and have been lying for years.” Trump endorses Ken Paxton in Denton, then calls him a pain in the ass to his face. “Is he here? Oh, there he is. I don't care.” Jim Justice says ICE got “carried away” dragging 15-year neighbors, then says he backs Trump “full stop,” and the press twisted his words. Is Durupinar Noah's Ark, or a ridge that happens to look like a hull? What would those cores have to show before you believed either side?

Noah's Ark has been discovered. Again. This time, the claim involves underground scans, a boat-shaped formation in Turkey, and a publicity campaign promising evidence that could vindicate Genesis. Travis, Jake, and Julian investigate Andrew Jones and Noah's Ark Scans, the latest effort to establish the Durupınar formation near Mount Ararat as the remains of the biblical vessel. Jones's fascination began with the extraordinary claims of amateur archaeologist Ron Wyatt, who also claimed to discover the Ark of the Covenant, Goliath's sword, and the dried blood of Jesus. Today, Andrew Jones is trying to find the Ark with modern surveying equipment and help spreading the word from Lauren Witzke and Edward Szall. Along the way, we examine the flexible measurements used to make the formation fit the description of the Ark in the Book of Genesis, why this crew is so invested in finding physical proof of the Ark, and whether the Bible even says that the final resting place of the Ark is Mount Ararat. https://library.biblicalarchaeology.org/sidebar/measurements-in-the-bible-evidence-at-st-etienne-for-the-length-of-the-cubit-and-the-reed/ Subscribe for $5 a month to get all the premium episodes: www.patreon.com/qaa Click here to become a subscriber to Cursed Media today to get access to new episodes of Raising Hell releasing right now, plus our other exclusive Cursed Media series: https://cursedmedia.net Produced by Liv Agar & Corey Klotz.

If a lifelong democrat like Charles Barkley can call out the DSA's ridiculous, unaffordable and dangerous platform - then the democrat party is screwed... because they've been hijacked and they know it. Meantime, in a crushing blow to atheists, researchers say they've discovered Noah's Ark - FOR REAL - in Turkey - and they're digging hundreds of feet below the sand to prove it. Is our world headed for another "reset" - as God told Noah to prepare for? Why all signs point to Donald Trump bringing countries together - two by two....

Victor Davis Hanson takes on Zohran Mamdani, Hasan Piker, and Ilhan Omar over a glaring double standard in their attacks on America. They condemn the United States and Israel over colonialism, inequality, oppression, and war—but rarely apply that same scrutiny to Uganda, Turkey, Somalia, and the countries they or their families came from. Hanson's message is simple: before condemning America, look in the mirror. PragerU - Please support PragerU with a tax-deductible donation today.

This week on the Conversations That Matter podcast, Jon Harris covers a wide-ranging news roundup touching on the Southern Baptist Convention, Christian persecution, the Catholic Church, the Christian Nationalism debate, Steve Lawson, and what Jon calls the “true culture of death.”Jon begins with a personal update following a house fire in his wife's family, along with reflections on the recent Restoring Virtue Conference and upcoming speaking engagements.From there, he discusses Eric Erickson's criticism of figures on the Right and the importance of clearly defining neo-Nazi ideology rather than making broad accusations. He also examines recent controversy surrounding Candace Owens, a new Vatican document on interreligious dialogue, and claims surrounding the discovery of Noah's Ark in Turkey.The episode then turns to the Christian Nationalism debate, including J.D. Greer's arguments concerning church and state, religious liberty, and the role of Christianity in public life. Jon also discusses Southern Baptist figures Jason Little and Walter Strickland, including Strickland's comments concerning Nat Turner and liberation theology.Jon then addresses the changing Christian legal movement, Steve Lawson's recent book concerning his adultery and disqualification from ministry, and questions from listeners.The final portion of the podcast examines assisted suicide, declining marriage and family formation, adult toy consumption, gender distrust, juvenileization, higher education, student loans, Title IX, and policies under the Trump administration. Jon concludes by discussing comments from Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu concerning persecuted Christians in the Middle East and the broader decline of Christianity in the region.Listen through to the end for Jon's thoughts on why Christians should focus less on theoretical political battles and more on the practical challenges directly in front of them.00:00 Personal Update: House Fire and Restoring Virtue10:40 The News Roundup Begins11:45 Eric Erickson and the Debate Over Neo-Nazism22:40 Candace Owens and Online Political Commentary29:00 The Vatican, Vatican II, and Interreligious Dialogue38:05 The Search for Noah's Ark42:45 J.D.

It's Rafe's birthday, so naturally we celebrate the only way The Rizzuto Show knows how: questionable food choices, terrible opinions and conversations that have absolutely nothing to do with birthdays.The festivities start with Rafe crushing deviled eggs while Blues broadcaster Chris Kerber joins us to talk about his impressive 40-pound weight loss and the lifestyle changes that got him there. Unfortunately, any motivation to eat healthier is immediately destroyed by a rundown of the new food at Blues games, including German nachos, walking tacos, beer cheese and a toasted ravioli burger. Riz also gets humbled by a fellow morning radio personality who has absolutely no idea who he is, and Rafe's birthday feast escalates to vanilla mousse cake and bacon candles.Then we make the mistake of blindly ranking ten legendary rock bands. Metallica becomes the baseline, Queen grabs the top spot, and a series of increasingly bad decisions somehow leaves The Beatles at #10 behind KISS. We attempt to defend this musical felony before diving into the backlash surrounding a George Michael tribute. Rafe's birthday celebration also delivers a new grill and the kind of homeowner haul that says, “Congratulations, you're officially middle-aged.”But the birthday boy isn't done yet. We investigate what was happening in 1978 when Rafe entered the world, revisit forgotten sodas like Ski, Like Cola and Jolt, and discover the northern snakehead — an invasive fish that can breathe air and survive outside the water, because regular fish apparently weren't stressful enough.Plus, we debate who gets the ticket when a self-driving Tesla speeds, react to a horrifying wrong-leg surgery story, discover men needed Pilates renamed “Bro-lates” before they'd consider doing it, and investigate one of the great mysteries of modern frozen cuisine: what happened to the Hot Pocket crisping sleeve?Deviled eggs, birthday presents, rock-band blasphemy, killer fish, Tesla excuses and missing Hot Pocket technology.

With the rise of the "spiritual but not religious" category, more people are turning to AI for spiritual guidance instead of pastors. What does it mean for people to seek spiritual, moral, and life guidance from a source that guides you toward an ever more personalized and isolated spiritual experience? We also discuss: Noah's Ark hunters are digging around in Turkey again, a judge shuts down an attempt to weaken the Johnson Amendment, assisted dying gets voted down in England and Wales, New Zealand finally hits Gloriavale where it hurts, new Pew numbers show Mormon retention slipping, and Christians lose it over Meryl Streep being cast as the Christ-like lion in the new Narnia.

Has Noah's Ark Been Finally Found? Let's Check the Evidence  Has Noah's Ark finally been found at the Durupınar formation in Turkey? Dr. Walt Swaim examines the sensational claim that the Ark has been “100 percent confirmed,” what the researchers actually said, and the evidence offered both for and against the identification. As a Christian who believes the biblical account of Noah and the worldwide Flood, he approaches the discovery with genuine hope—but also with appropriate caution and skepticism. Christians should encourage careful archaeological and geological research while refusing to exaggerate evidence that has not yet been independently verified.  Audio only and video: https://truthunbound.podbean.com/  Truth Unbound website: https://truthunbound.org/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TruthUnbound  YouTube: www.youtube.com/@Trut9hUnboundMinistries  Info@TruthUnbound.org LBU.edu ** Truth Unbound Ministries: https://truthunbound.org/truthunbound.org

The 30-year mortgage went from 6.89% to 7.58% in three weeks. Everybody's blaming oil and the war in Iran — but oil dropped 4% the same day rates hit their high, and rates went up anyway. So something else is going on.This episode breaks down what's actually moving rates, why the Texas housing market is doing the opposite of what national headlines claim, and how to set up an AI project so you stop re-explaining your entire business every single morning.WHERE RATES ARE30-Year Fixed Conventional — 7.58%15-Year Fixed Conventional — 7.20%30-Year FHA — 7.24%30-Year VA — 7.25%30-Year Jumbo — 7.60%Market averages per the Mortgage News Daily index as of 9/29/26. Not a quote.Highest the 30-year has been since April 2024. A year ago it was under 6.40%. The last cycle peak, back in late 2023, was around 7.8% — so we're close.WHY IT'S HAPPENINGMortgage rates are built off the 10-year Treasury, currently around 5.25%, plus a spread of roughly 2%. From late February to mid-September the 30-year rose 0.97 points and the 10-year rose 0.97 points — identical to the basis point. The government is borrowing enormous sums and has to pay more to attract lenders. Your mortgage rides on top of that.Matthew Graham at Mortgage News Daily said this week that oil can't explain the move. It's strong economic data, expectations of more strength, and Treasury supply pressure. And that "strong" data is AI and data centers — a handful of companies that make up about a third of the entire stock market. Real growth, just not growth that shows up in anyone's paycheck.TEXAS HOUSING — THE NATIONAL STORY ISN'T OUR STORYTexas closed sales have been running ahead of last year for months. The Texas Real Estate Research Center at Texas A&M says the first half of 2026 gained momentum. Meanwhile:• Statewide median around $343,000, about 0.4% below a year ago• Prices softening 13 consecutive months — flat with a slow leak, not a crash• Inventory around 5.5 months (4–5 is balanced) — buyer territory for the first time since before the pandemic• Typical seller price cut: about $12,000, roughly 3% off list• Homes selling in about 62 days, only two days slower than last yearIS THIS 2008 AGAIN?Peak to trough in the last crisis, Dallas fell 10.5% and Austin fell 8.5%. Las Vegas fell 64%, Phoenix 56%, Miami 52%. Going in, Dallas was about 3% above fundamentals, Houston 5%, and Austin was actually undervalued. Texas never inflated, so there was nothing to give back. Boring lending laws and cheap land — still true today.BUYER TIP — THE PAYMENT ZILLOW SHOWS YOU IS WRONGThree reasons it's off in Texas: taxes pulled from the prior owner's bill (homestead exemptions and over-65 freezes don't transfer), an insurance estimate that's always low for a hail state, and mortgage insurance that depends on loan type, down payment and credit. Stack those and you're a few hundred a month off. Get pre-approved before falling in love with a house — and fully underwritten if the situation is complicated.SELLER TIP — A BETTER MOVE THAN CUTTING YOUR PRICECut $10,000 off a $400,000 house and the buyer's payment improves about $60 a month. It'd take that buyer almost 14 years of $60 to equal what you just handed over. Offer the same $10,000 as a closing cost credit instead — same money out of your pocket, but it lands the day the buyer actually needs it, and you keep your sale price for the appraisal and the comps. Seller credits are capped by loan type and down payment, so confirm the number with a lender before advertising it.MIKE'S MINDHurricane Polo and a possible foot of rain. Abbott's diesel disaster declaration at $5.86 a gallon. Household income falling from 78 ounces of gold in 1990 to 19 today. A record $32,461 for a three-year-old used car. Rent, oddly, behaving itself. The bond market pricing four more hikes by June 2027. And core drilling starting at the Noah's Ark formation in eastern Turkey.AGENT TIP — TURN SHOWING FEEDBACK INTO EVIDENCESixty seconds after every showing, talk it into your phone's AI voice button. One agent saying the kitchen is dated is an opinion. Nine agents saying it is a number you can put in front of your seller.BUILD A PROJECT — THE MAIN EVENTEvery major AI tool has this and most people scroll right past it. The six pieces: title, description, custom instructions, context documents, the SOP, and connectors. Plus the part that matters most — you don't write the procedure, you do the job with the AI open and then tell it to write down what you did. Walkthroughs for four setups: Listings, Buyers, Content, and your own business.THE BUYER PROJECT — FREEI built a project for Texas agents running a buyer through a transaction.

Mobidictum Conference in Istanbul, October 7–8: fifth year, 80% of the top Turkish studios in the room, 20 Vietnamese and 30 Chinese companies, 60% international attendance for the first time, and all three of us on stage. Batuhan has free tickets for the 2.5 Gamers audience, so reach out.Turkey went from zero gaming news for five years to producing the most consistent hit-making machine in mobile, and in this episode we sit down with Batuhan Avucan, founder of Mobidictum, to find out how that actually happened and what's coming next. The short version: investors gave Turkish founders one mandate, puzzle, and Turkish founders executed. The Sort category alone went from basically nothing in 2023 to roughly $80M a month in IAP, and once you add ad revenue on top it's easily $120M a month, spearheaded by Pixel Flow, Magic Sort, Hexa Sort and friends. Block is dominated by Color Block Jam and Block Out from Grand Games, Match Blast and Match Factory are Peak's home turf, and match-3 is still a heavyweight fight between Dream and Playrix. But the interesting part is the machine underneath it: studios that grew up working with publishers like Rollic and Lion, learned the craft, then went solo and shipped Loom and RotateLab-sized results. Batuhan puts it better than we can: "We don't train talent anymore, we train founders."

Has Noah's Ark Been Finally Found? Let's Check the Evidence  Has Noah's Ark finally been found at the Durupınar formation in Turkey? Dr. Walt Swaim examines the sensational claim that the Ark has been “100 percent confirmed,” what the researchers actually said, and the evidence offered both for and against the identification. As a Christian who believes the biblical account of Noah and the worldwide Flood, he approaches the discovery with genuine hope—but also with appropriate caution and skepticism. Christians should encourage careful archaeological and geological research while refusing to exaggerate evidence that has not yet been independently verified.  Audio only and video: https://truthunbound.podbean.com/  Truth Unbound website: https://truthunbound.org/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TruthUnbound  YouTube: www.youtube.com/@Trut9hUnboundMinistries  Info@TruthUnbound.org LBU.edu ** Truth Unbound Ministries: https://truthunbound.org/truthunbound.org

1814 BATTLE OF NEW ORLEANSCONTENTS JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW, 9-28-2026Analyzing Security Crises Across BattlefrontsBill Roggio and Edmund Fitton-Brown discuss multiple interconnected global conflict zones. In London, five suspects were arrested following an explosive plot against a UK air base hosting American B-1 bombers, potentially linked to Iran, al-Qaeda, or ISIS. Meanwhile, Iran offered a revised diplomatic proposal after rejecting a prior memorandum of understanding, though it lacks nuclear concessions. In Yemen, Houthi forces captured the port of Mocha and advanced southward toward the Bab el-Mandeb strait. In Lebanon, Israel maintains operations north of the Litani River while the Lebanese government fails to disarm Hezbollah. Lastly, Hamas remains unyielding regarding disarmament in Gaza. (1)Evaluating US China Diplomacy StrategySteve Yates evaluates the recent summit between President Trump and Xi Jinping, noting grand pomp but little substantive policy movement on Taiwan. A critical fourteen billion dollar arms sales package to Taiwan remains in stasis, which Yates warns increases regional security risks if delayed further. Commenting on Ambassador David Perdue's remark about selling arms to China, Yates interprets it as sarcastic banter rather than actual policy. Furthermore, Yates highlights statements from the US Pacific commander emphasizing America's military capability to inflict severe devastation in a conflict. Ultimately, Yates advocates delivering Taiwan's defense package promptly. (2)Critiquing US China Trade PoliciesAlan Tonelson expresses strong disappointment regarding recent US-China trade negotiations, which produced minor tariff concessions on labor-intensive goods that primarily relieve China's domestic unemployment crisis. Tonelson criticizes the Trump administration for failing to reinstate major tariffs counteracting China's industrial overcapacity and market dumping after earlier court rulings. He highlights how China uses its control over rare earth exports as strategic leverage, offering vague promises to restore export levels. Additionally, Tonelson notes that negotiations completely failed to tackle China's pervasive non-tariff trade barriers, warning that weak American leadership threatens long-term economic decoupling efforts. (3)Hamas Governance Stalls Reconstruction PlansSamuel Ben-Ur and Bill Roggio: Ben-Ur details how the Board of Peace unveiled a two point five billion dollar reconstruction plan for Gaza, which remains completely stalled because it requires Hamas to disarm and relinquish power. Hamas exhibits no intention to surrender its arms. Internal Hamas elections for its Gaza political chief resulted in a stalemate between factions backed by Doha-based leaders Khaled Mashal and Khalil al-Hayya. Meanwhile, the Board of Peace has completely excluded UNRWA from reconstruction efforts. Though massive humanitarian aid prevents famine, roughly two million Gazans endure harsh tent conditions while Hamas continues seizing aid for profit. (4Examining Hezbollah Deterrence and RegenerationDavid Daoud and Bill Roggio: Daoud examines how Hezbollah uses unclaimed FPV drone strikes in southern Lebanonto test Israeli and American resolve while maintaining media narratives of victory. Daoud criticizes the Lebanesegovernment for demanding full Israeli withdrawal before addressing Hezbollah's disarmament, repeating post-2006 failures. Furthermore, Lebanese Armed Forces deployments in pilot zones lack any mandate to confront Hezbollah, seizing minor ammunition rather than heavy weaponry. Under Naim Qassem's quiet leadership, Hezbollah relies on unsanctioned crowdfunding entities like Watawanu to fund social services and maintains weapons smuggling via Syriato sustain its long-term regeneration. (5)Houthi Offensives Escalating Across YemenBridget Toomey discusses the intensifying Houthi military offensives across Yemen, specifically targeting the strategic Taiz governorate. After seizing coastal territory down to the Bab el-Mandeb strait, Houthi forces are pushing into mountainous highlands to encircle Taiz city and cut off key supply roads. Toomey explains that Houthi advances are enabled by deep divisions among eight anti-Houthi coalition factions, Houthi control of national telecommunications infrastructure, and extensive Iranian operational support. By moving resources onto coastal islands and isolating government forces, the Houthis ultimately aim to encircle Aden and solidify single-party rule over all of Yemen. (6)Assessing Syria Governance Under SharaAhmad Sharawi analyzes Syria's political transformation under Ahmed al-Sharaa following the collapse of the Assadregime. Sharawi highlights controversial army appointments, including Omar Jeffi—a Turkish citizen and former HTSmember—to lead the Damascus division. During a Western media interview, al-Sharaa evaded explicitly renouncing his past oath of allegiance to al-Qaeda, deflecting questions as past history rather than demonstrating genuine ideological reform. Sharawi notes that Turkey uses Syria to project regional power into Lebanon and Iraq while securing lucrative reconstruction contracts, though al-Sharaa's attempt to balance relations among Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Israel will inevitably trigger regional friction. (7)Analyzing Strategic Waterways Regional ConflictsEdmund Fitton-Brown examines maritime choke points in the Strait of Hormuz and Bab el-Mandeb, highlighting how Iranian proxies strategically target Saudi oil transit routes. Fitton-Brown urges skepticism regarding Iran's temporary proposal to reopen Hormuz, warning against accepting deals that ignore Iran's nuclear program. He notes that the Saudi-Turkey-Pakistan defense pact lacks practical military enforcement in Yemen. Furthermore, deep personal friction between leaders in Saudi Arabia and the UAE led to Emirati troop withdrawals, weakening anti-Houthi forces as Houthis advance toward Taiz, Marib, and Aden. Fitton-Brown calls for a unified US strategy addressing Iran and Yemen together. (8)Unpacking Iran Global Operations StrategyJanatyn Sayeh exposes Tehran's global coercion strategy, including the crowdsourced intelligence platform Alaj used to target dissidents and Western interests. Commenting on arrests near a UK airbase hosting American forces, Sayeh explains how Iran contracts organized crime gangs, Hell's Angels, and ideological operatives for transnational plots while routinely denying state involvement. Domestically, the IRGC is increasingly militarizing society—training civilians, women, and youth—in preparation for enduring conflict. Meanwhile, a rebranded Baloch insurgency demonstrates heightened military and intelligence capabilities against IRGC commanders. Sayeh concludes that former Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi represents the most viable opposition leadership option. (9)Countering Chinese Influence In MicronesiaCleo Paskal details the geopolitical contest between the US and China in the Federated States of Micronesia, focusing on Yap state. A Chinese state-owned enterprise completed rebuilding an Imperial Japanese airfield on Woleai island and is expanding infrastructure across Yap. Despite US plans for two billion dollars in dual-use port and airport investments, mismanaged local engagement led INDOPACOM commander Admiral Paparo to warn of seeking alternative sites. Paskal criticizes Washington for relying on flawed advisors and artificial intelligence unsuited for non-digital Pacific societies. Consequently, China continues making strategic inroads by proposing alternative airline routes to exploit local dissatisfaction. (10)Analyzing South American Political ShiftsErnesto Araújo and Alejandro Peña Esclusa analyze critical political dynamics in Brazil and Venezuela. In Venezuela, Delcy Rodríguez faces immense pressure to schedule elections due to severe economic collapse, public protests, and left-wing accusations of treason following Nicolás Maduro's arrest. Meanwhile, opposition figure María Corina Machadoremains blocked from returning home. In Brazil, Araújo argues that President Lula da Silva's UN speech failed domestically because Lula ignored economic mismanagement and rampant drug cartel growth. Araújo highlights Flavio Bolsonaro's rising momentum in Brazil's election, framing it as a pivotal anti-system contest against entrenched institutional corruption. (11)

Interview starts at 32:00 Dean Kinzer of Kinzer Coins joins Graham Dunlop and Darren Grimes for a wide ranging conversation about ancient coins, the family roots that pulled him into collecting, and why coins are really compact historical records. Dean explains how ancient coinage evolved from electrum globs and early stamped pieces into state backed currency, and why collectors can use coins to trace politics, propaganda, economics, and the rise and fall of civilizations. We discuss why ancient coins are still accessible to new collectors, how grading and slabbed coins reduce the risk of counterfeits, and why Dean built tools to help people understand value without getting burned. Along the way, the conversation covers Roman debasement, the Ides of March coin, Viking treasure, mythological imagery, and why the hobby is as much about education as it is about collecting.   Dean Kinzer is an ancient coin expert and founder of Kinzer Coins, known for helping collectors and history enthusiasts hold the past in their hands. Dean's journey into ancient coins began after his father's passing, when he received his father's extensive collection. He realized there was a gap in the market for trusted ancient coin expertise. As a decorated Iraq War veteran with an MBA, Dean brings discipline, structure, and integrity to the 2,700 year old field of ancient coins, collecting, and education. https://kinzercoins.com/ Special Audience Giveaway: TITLE - The 5 Best Ancient Coins for New Collectors URL - https://startancients.com   Key topics Dean shares his origin story growing up in a collector household, surrounded by baseball cards, American coins, and a father whose collection grew into a massive organized archive We discuss how caring for his father's collection after his illness led Dean to ancient coins, especially Biblical pieces like shekels of Tyre, tribute pennies, and widows mites The conversation explains the earliest coinage in western Turkey, including electrum, hand struck pieces, and the early fight against counterfeiting with striated designs and incuse punches Dean breaks down Croesus and the shift from stamped metal to formal state backed coinage across the Mediterranean We discuss how coin artistry evolved from utility to high relief portraits, signed dies, and city states using coins as civic identity Darren asks about money with no inherent value, and Dean uses Rome's debasement of silver to show how inflation and collapse appear directly in coinage The Roman denarius is traced from high purity silver to zero silver over roughly 60 years, with Caracalla, Aurelian, and the late empire used as key examples The show explores how coins functioned as propaganda, carrying messages across an empire when direct communication was difficult Dean highlights unusual and collectible themes on ancient coins, including wrestlers, athletes, astronomy, animals, music, boxing, gladiators, and mythological founders The discussion turns to the Ides of March coin, Julius Caesar's portrait on coinage, and why the Brutus Eid Mar coin is one of the most famous and valuable ancient coins Dean explains the modern collecting market, including slabbed coins, NGC grading, counterfeit prevention, and his own value guide and app for Roman imperial coins The episode closes with Dean talking about the diversity of the collecting community, the educational mission behind Kinzer Coins, and the idea of a surprise coin subscription concept sparked during the interview   Become a Lord or Lady with 1k donations over time.

For thousands of years, Noah's Ark has been treated either as biblical history or as one of those stories modern man is far too sophisticated to believe. Well, things may be getting awkward. Lauren Witzke, Director of Marketing and Fundraising for Noah's Ark Scans, joins me to discuss the ongoing investigation of the massive boat-shaped Durupınar formation in eastern Turkey near Mount Ararat. We'll get into what their latest scanning and geophysical work appears to be revealing beneath the surface, the reported internal structures and anomalies, why the team believes this could actually be the remains of THE Noah's Ark, and what comes next as they continue testing the site with modern technology. If the evidence keeps pointing where this team believes it's pointing, a whole lot of very confident people may suddenly discover a deep appreciation for “settled science” being unsettled.SPONSORSupermassive Black Coffee is 100% organic gourmet coffee, fire-roasted in a Victorian-era roaster to unlock bold, rich flavor with dark chocolate undertones and a smooth, smoky finish, which is a refreshingly civilized alternative to drinking whatever bean-water the regime-approved coffee cartel keeps pretending is “premium.” Use code JEFF for 20% off and awaken the rebel within, because some mornings require more than caffeine, they require a small act of defiance before checking your inbox and discovering civilization has once again chosen nonsense.https://supermassiveblackcoffee.com/?ref=JEFFBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-jeff-dornik-show--4788100/support.Follow The Jeff Dornik Show on Apple Podcasts and leave a 5-star review.

“Let's whisper it,” said historian Simon Sebag Montefiore. “The Trump blockade is working.” It can be hard to parse the state of play in the Middle East amid escalating rhetoric, but history gives us the necessary perspective to call balls and strikes in the present day. Today, the author of The Cauldron: The Making of the Modern Middle East joins School of War to discuss the forces that created the modern Middle East, why he thinks Trump's strategy in Iran is working, and the growing rivalry between Israel and Turkey. “There is a real danger that Erdoğan will talk himself into a war with Israel,” he warns. 05:22 — The Middle East Is Not Monochrome   09:49 — Four Eras of the Modern Middle East   11:45 — The Problem With Nation-States   18:30 — Why 1979 Changed the Middle East   25:22 — Can Iran's Revolution Survive Regime Change?   34:28 — Iran, Hormuz, and the Nuclear Question   39:57 — Could Iran's Regime Reach a Breaking Point?   44:42 — Why Iran's Regime Is Built for War   50:46 — Trump, Soleimani, and the 12-Day War   52:28 — Can the Iran Blockade Work?   54:23 — Israel's Post–October 7 Grand Strategy   1:04:56 — Israel, Turkey, and Erdoğan's Neo-Ottoman Ambitions This episode of School of War is brought to you by Maven Smart System, the builder platform for the American warfighter, fielded across the force and live on the frontline today.

The Kurdish-populated Wan/Van Province is a major smuggling hub between Turkey and Iran. Kurdish smugglers cross this 180-mile-long land border, transporting everyday consumer goods—fuel, tobacco, sugar, and tea—as well as more illicit goods, and the province supports the financial, technical, and labor capacities that sustain these smuggling economies. As the Turkish state has enacted increasingly punitive anti-smuggling laws, smuggling has also become a site of contentious politics. Smuggling Law: Unsettled Sovereignties in Turkey's Kurdish Borderlands (Stanford UP, 2025) explores anti-smuggling law enforcement and criminal prosecutions to reveal a key site—the criminal court—where borders and claims of sovereignty are simultaneously remade and disrupted.Taking readers from border villages, mountain passes, and road checkpoints to courtrooms, law offices, and forensic laboratories, Fırat Bozçalı examines how Kurdish smugglers, with the help of their lawyers, legally disrupt state sovereignty in criminal courts. Kurdish smugglers and lawyers adopt and rework procedures, rules, and reasonings in ways that interrupt the courts' capacity to coopt, discipline, and oppress. Bozçalı theorizes this evasive engagement with the legal system as a strategy of techno-legal politics among marginalized and persecuted groups, one that extends beyond the Kurdish case. Smuggling Law holds profound relevance in today's world, where ever-expanding regimes of surveillance, oppression, and dispossession unfold in the broader contexts of the global war on terror and data-driven capitalism.

1920 DAMASCUSAhmad Sharawi analyzes Syria's political transformation under Ahmed al-Sharaa following the collapse of the Assadregime. Sharawi highlights controversial army appointments, including Omar Jeffi—a Turkish citizen and former HTSmember—to lead the Damascus division. During a Western media interview, al-Sharaa evaded explicitly renouncing his past oath of allegiance to al-Qaeda, deflecting questions as past history rather than demonstrating genuine ideological reform. Sharawi notes that Turkey uses Syria to project regional power into Lebanon and Iraq while securing lucrative reconstruction contracts, though al-Sharaa's attempt to balance relations among Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Israel will inevitably trigger regional friction.

Ashley Zsaton, DNP, ACNP-AG, learned about hair politics early. Growing up biracial in Milwaukee, she wasn't always accepted for wearing her natural curls. Her search to understand what people meant by "good" and "bad" hair led her to become a board-certified nurse practitioner and hair loss specialist. As co-founder of the Hollywood Hair Institute, California's preeminent hair transplant & aesthetic treatment center, Dr. Zsaton established herself as a leading hair restoration specialist and trichologist. Her medical background also includes supporting patients in critical conditions in the ICU and in ophthalmology, where her research led to the national publication of a school-based vision screening program. But before she began her medical career, she was trying to develop a healthy relationship with her own hair. A move to the Dominican Republic opened her eyes to the incredible beauty and versatility of naturally curly hair. In the Dominican Republic, Dr. Zsaton was exposed to a country filled with curly hair styled and cared for in all manner of styles. She brought this newfound passion for hair back to the States, and when she decided to pursue a career in medicine, her husband encouraged her to follow her interest in scalp care towards medical aesthetics. Fast forward to now, and Dr. Zsaton is changing lives by helping people access the hair restoration treatments that are best for them. During our conversation, we discussed every hair restoration treatment from PRP to Follicular Unit Extraction to Minoxidil. Dr. Zsaton walked us through what a good surgical candidate profile looks like, and which alternatives may be a better fit for her patients. In fact, Brooke walked us through the exact routine Dr. Zsaton prepared for her and detailed how effective each product has been in growing her hair. Dr. Zsaton doesn't hold back when it comes to telling us which hairstyles may be causing the most damage, for men and women, and which products aren't doing anything helpful at all. She gives us a peek into the aesthetic innovations she's explored in Turkey and Korea that she'd like to offer her patients here in the States. Dr. Zsaton offered an unfiltered, honest look at the limits and possibilities of hair restoration.Tune in as we discuss:(0:00) Welcome Ashley Zsaton, DNP, ACNP-AG(1:45) Scalp Care's Rising Popularity(3:00) How Good Hair vs. Bad Hair Conversations Impacted Her(3:30) Her Hair Health Journey(3:45) How the Dominican Republic Inspired Her Natural Hair Journey(4:00) What Inspired Her Medical Career(5:40) Defining Hair Terminology(8:30) Which Hairstyles May Cause Hair Loss(9:00) What To Do When Your Braids Are Too Tight(11:40) Differences In Types of Hair Transplants(15:00) Determining Hair Transplant Candidacy(17:10) How Iron Impacts Hair Thickness(19:25) Determining PRP Candidacy(22:25) Why Minoxidil Is Underrated(24:00) Why Ashley Hates Biotin(25:25) Hair Loss Starts Earlier Than We Think(27:24) Which Hair Conditions Cannot Be Fixed(30:20) Tips For Men With Hairline Concerns(32:00) Brooke's Full Hair Restoration Protocol(39:30) Why Keratin Treatments Can Be A Good Solution(43:43) Aesthetic Innovations in Turkey & Korea(47:15) Ashley's Haircare Regimen(49:40) Caring For Healthy Bleached Hair(52:00) When Ashley Feels the Most BeautifulRate, Subscribe & Review the Podcast on AppleJoin the Naked Beauty Community on IG: @nakedbeautyplanetThanks for all the love and support.

Author and explorer Denis Belliveau talks with Clay about his epic journey along the entire Silk Road in the footsteps of Marco Polo. Polo (ca. 1254-1324) traveled from Venice to the far end of China between 1271 and 1295 AD. He visited Kublai Khan in the legendary Xanadu. Denis Belliveau and his traveling companion, Francis O'Donnell, needed 70 visas to make the immense journey, none of it by airplane, much of it on foot, horse, camel, and such fortunate rides they could cadge along the way. They traveled with what Belliveau calls "reckless bravado and a lot of testosterone," through Turkey, Iran, Afghanistan, India, Tibet, and China, among other nations. They were, so far as anyone knows, the first people ever to retrace the entire Marco Polo journey. The result was a PBS documentary and excellent book, In the Footsteps of Marco Polo. You can also learn more at his website: In the Footsteps. This episode was recorded on April 8, 2026.
