You probably have a lot to be thankful for, but the magic is in the noticing. That's our premise in this edition of Doing What Works.Here are your show notes…A wait of unknown duration is more difficult than a finite wait.Withholding praise borders on immoral.If there's something you want to do, make it more convenient.Everything around you that you call life was made up by people who were no smarter than you.Your life matters; this movie will remind you.“Just be yourself” is terrible advice.

This podcast was inspired by reading about an Anglican clergyman who mentored many influential people within the UK church. Maybe an unsung hero. It got me thinking about the importance of being mentored and mentoring others.
During this message, we looked at Mark chapter 12 to see the widow's offering. Jesus was wowed by her… gift size and spiritual desperation.

In this episode, we continue our enlightening conversation with Frank Pleszak, a dedicated volunteer at the Avro Heritage Museum.

In this episode we speak to William Dalrymple. The Scottish historian is the author of 10 books, a regular contributor to The Guardian and The New Yorker, and host of the popular podcast Empire. A specialist in Indian and Islamic history, Dalrymple first visited the subcontinent as an 18 year old, and knew that it was where he wanted to spend his life. These days he spends most of the year at his farmhouse on the outskirts of Delhi, but he’s heading to Australia for a speaking tour this month. Dalrymple’s works often explore the intersections of history, culture, and religion - basically managing to make history sexy - which he does for India in his latest deep dive book, The Golden Road. He talks to us today about everything from the indigenous people of Palestine, to why truth-telling about history is critical, and how a podcast about Australian history might be next, in a wide-ranging chat with senior writer for culture at The Age, Kerrie O’Brien.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode, we dive deep into two incredible narratives that shine a light on overlooked pioneers who have transformed our understanding of science and music. First up, we meet Katie Hafner, the powerhouse behind the Lost Women of Science podcast and Middle Grade Novel. She's on a mission to uncover the remarkable stories of women scientists who have been systematically erased from history. Imagine brilliant minds whose groundbreaking work was stolen, ignored, or simply forgotten. From Dora Richardson, who synthesized the life-saving breast cancer drug tamoxifen, to Katie's own grandmother who researched premature infant blindness, these women are finally getting the recognition they deserve. Then, we switch gears to D A Royster's heartwarming tale of "Happy Music," a vibrant celebration of New Orleans jazz history. Through the eyes of a young girl, we explore the legendary Club Desire - a groundbreaking venue started by Dana's grandfather in the 1940s. This was no ordinary music club - it was a cultural landmark where legends like Fats Domino and Ella Fitzgerald got their start, breaking racial barriers one musical note at a time. Both stories share a powerful message: creativity, innovation, and passion know no boundaries. Whether you're a science enthusiast, music lover, or just someone who appreciates incredible human stories, this episode will inspire you to look beyond the surface and celebrate the unsung heroes who have shaped our world.

Some key understandings in Crazy Town: the Earth is finite; the economy cannot grow forever; people can harm ecosystems and cause global warming; physics, chemistry, and biology are real; inequality hurts everyone; healthy humans need community, and it's more fun to laugh than to cry. But where did principles like these originate? In this episode, Jason, Asher, and Rob use the format of a fantasy football draft to pick the pundits who most influenced their thinking on sustainability, resilience, community, science, economics, and politics. Like starry-eyed fanboys (but hopefully a bit more articulate) they gush over their heroes and tell behind-the-scenes stories about how they came to be influenced. And they ask listeners to share their top picks for influencers (in the best sense of the term). Originally recorded on 9/29/25. Visit Crazy Town on the web.

In this episode of the Anglotopia podcast, host Jonathan Thomas speaks with historian Julie Summers about her extensive work in uncovering the hidden corners of 20th-century British history. They discuss her approach to storytelling, the evolution of British Vogue, the significant contributions of the Women's Institute during World War II, and her personal connections to historical narratives. Julie shares insights from her research and the impact of her work on understanding British history. Links Julie Summers' Books on Amazon Julie's Books on Bookshop.org Julie Summer Official Website Home Fires (JustWatch) Takeaways Julie Summers specializes in uncovering untold stories of ordinary people during extraordinary times. Good history is rooted in storytelling, making facts relatable and engaging. The Women's Institute played a crucial role during World War II, contributing significantly to the war effort. British Vogue has evolved from a fashion magazine to a chronicle of British identity. Julie emphasizes the importance of accuracy and detail in historical writing. The requisitioning of country houses during WWII transformed British country house culture. Jam Busters highlights the overlooked contributions of women in wartime. Julie's personal connections to historical figures enrich her storytelling. The impact of social media has changed the role of print magazines like Vogue. Julie is excited about her upcoming book on the Women of D-Day. Sound Bites 1. On the power of details: "I'm totally fixated about the weather—in fact, I'm known in the family as the biggest weather nerd of all times. If I'm describing a scene that happened on a certain day, I will go right back to the original meteorological forecasts." 2. On discovering Our Uninvited Guests: "The chap at the hotel said, 'No, no, no, this hotel was taken over by the Royal Air Force in the war. And the George down there, that was overtaken by the post office because the British government, had Britain been attacked and invaded, were going to send the government and all the major offices of state up to Harrogate.'" 3. On finding Sandy Irvine's boot: "Jimmy Chin said, 'Yeah, it had a foot in it in the sock. And the sock had a name tape on it. And the name tape said A.C. Irvine.' And I went, 'Oh my God, you found my great uncle's foot.' And I literally had not expected it." 4. On the WI's massive contribution: "They made 12 million pounds of jam and preserves during the Second World War—a third of the quantity of jam that was consumed. And all of that was from fruit that they'd either picked from the hedgerows or produced in their own gardens." 5. On Harrods' first escalator (1898): "Management was so concerned about the potential for customer accidents or panic that they stationed an employee at the top offering cognac and smelling salts to those who had completed the 'ordeal.'" 6. On researching her grandfather: "He said, 'Well, like most Englishmen, I can write the story of my sex life on the back of a postage stamp.' And I thought, 'Whew, off the hook!'" 7. On why women's contributions were overlooked: "Shall I say what I really think? It's because they're women. I think the women's voices were drowned out after the Second World War by the incredible stories of heroism of men." 8. On the tragic "Brownies" at Brockett Hall: "The women who were giving birth to illegitimate children were known as the Brownies, and they were set to work in the kitchens at Brockett Hall until they went into second stage labor. They were dressed in brown uniforms—that's why they were called the Brownies. I found that very chilling." 9. On Home Fires being canceled: "The new writer asked the exec producer, 'So how many series are we working towards?' And she said, 'Six, maybe nine.' And three days later, I got a phone call to say, 'We've been cut.' And I let out a big F-bomb." 10. On women and D-Day: "I stood up in front of these historians and said, 'How many women do you think were directly involved in the planning for D-Day?' One man said 100. A woman said 3,000. And I said, 'No. 348,000 British women were involved in the planning for D-Day and more than that of American women.'"

This episode of America's Founding Series reveals the incredible true story of Francesco Vigo, the Italian immigrant who personally financed George Rogers Clark's campaign and helped secure America's Northwest Territory during the American Revolution. Vigo risked his fortune, freedom, and future for a cause that wasn't his by birth but by belief. Through courage, character, and civic virtue, he proved that the fight for liberty was a universal calling—and his forgotten sacrifice reminds us that duty without recognition is what keeps the Republic alive today. Episode Highlights: How Francesco Vigo's funding and intelligence turned the tide of George Rogers Clark's western campaign, securing victory at Vincennes. The immigrant patriot who gave everything for liberty—and was repaid with debt, obscurity, and eventual honor. The timeless lesson of duty, character, and civic virtue, and why America still depends on citizens who serve without seeking reward.

In this episode, we shine a very unserious spotlight on the real MVPs of everyday life: eldest daughters holding households together since the dawn of time, the one friend who keeps the group chat alive, and more.

Genesis: The Story of Apollo 8, the First Manned Flight to Another World Author: Bob Zimmerman Segment 3: The Unsung Heroes: Wives' Sacrifices Under Public Scrutiny The wives of the Apollo 8 crew—Susan Borman, Marilyn Lovell, and Valerie Anders—were central to the mission's story, facing intense media attention akin to being "under siege" in their "NASA village." Despite the financial strains of middle-class incomes and Valerie Anders raising five children under eight, all three women gave their husbands permission to go. Susan Borman, though supportive, was convinced Frank Borman would die in lunar orbit, needing reassurance from Chris Kraft that the mission had "a 50/50 chance" of success. 1870
9/4/25 - Catholic author and journalist Kevin Wells returns to share two modern miracle stories shaking the Church today. First, the inspiring witness of Fr. John Hollowell, who in 2018 offered his sufferings for victims of abuse, enduring seizures, a brain tumor, and depression before experiencing a remarkable healing at Lourdes now under investigation. Then, Kevin tells the story of Fr. Jonathan Meyer, whose Indiana parish, once near closure, has been transformed into one of the most vibrant Catholic communities in America, modeled after the zeal of St. John Vianney. In this powerful interview, we explore how God is bringing renewal through both suffering and revival, and what these miracles reveal about the future of the Catholic Church.
