Podcast appearances and mentions of Vincent van Gogh

Ben Model, Silent Film expert and now author of the must have book, “The Silent Film Universe,” is our guest during Shop Talk. Caught My Eye has a story about a museum patron who sits on a piece of Swarovski crystal clad art called “Van Gogh's Chair”—you can guess what happens. Also, a drunk patron denied entry into a bar in Kentucky comes back to let a raccoon loose at The Big Apple Grill and Bar. Chaos ensues. Our Business Birthday celebrates James Flagg who is the illustrator of the “I Want You for The US Army” poster developed for Army Recruitment in 1916-and still used today. We're all business. Except when we're not.

Note dell'episodio What Italians Really Think About Their Politics - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BT7IvwSEUHE&t=7s Oggi si inizia dai banchi di scuola. Ma attenzione! Vietati i cellulari! Cosa ne pensate? Matteo e Raffaele ne parlano, e cercano di capire come funzionera'. Ma abbiamo proprio bisogno di avere sempre con noi il cellulare, e soprattutto, serve agli studenti? Il turista anonimo continua a colpire. Questa volta si sono seduti su una sedia. Quindi? Poveri turisti non possono nemmeno riposarsi un attimo tra un monumento ed un altro? Beh certo, possono riposarsi, ma non su una sedia di... Finiamo tutti a mare! Quest'anno le coste italiane sono apparentemente molto pulite, e c'e' una regione che ha vinto per essere la regione con il mare piu' pulito! Curiosi? Vi possiamo dare un indizio: Confina con Campania e Calabria. Indovinato? Trascrizione Raffaele: [0:23] Buongiorno Matteo. Matteo: [0:25] Buongiorno, come va? Raffaele: [0:28] Settimana scorsa avevo il fiatone perché avevo fatto le scale a piedi, attività fisica. Questa settimana ho il fiatone stando fermo. Matteo: [0:39] No, è arrivato il caldo. Raffaele: [0:42] 31 gradi, sopra il 60 per cento di umidità: si suda da fermi, si soffre maledettamente. Matteo: [0:54] Mannaggia. Speriamo che questa cosa non continui. Raffaele: [0:57] Sei andato via giusto in tempo. Il problema che mi pongo io, Matteo, è che se a giugno, a metà giugno, fa così caldo e si soffre così tanto, cosa succede a luglio e agosto? Cioè dove andiamo a finire? Matteo: [1:16] E dove andiamo a finire? Raffaele: [1:18] E pensa che ci sta ancora chi è sui banchi di scuola a studiare con questo caldo. Matteo: [1:29] La vita in Italia in questo momento è calda. Raffaele: [1:32] È molto molto calda. Tu, Matteo, ricordi quando hai fatto l'esame di maturità? La data. Matteo: [1:41] Era giugno, le prime due settimane di giugno. Raffaele: [1:45] Grosso modo di questi tempi. (Sì sì.) Io invece ebbi la sfortuna... il mio cognome inizia con la T, quando si selezionò la lettera per decidere da dove iniziare per fare gli esami orali, giustamente uscì proprio la A. Estratta a sorte la A, e quindi io ero l'ultimo di tutta la classe a fare l'esame. L'ho fatto, se non ricordo male, il 4 luglio. E sono andato a fare l'esame di maturità, non so se te l'ho mai raccontato, col costumino. Cioè il costume e sopra il pantalone: finito l'esame, la prova orale dell'esame di maturità, siamo andati direttamente al mare a festeggiare. Ma si può studiare con questo caldo? Si può stare sui libri a scuola con questo caldo? Matteo: [2:35] No, sicuramente no. Fortunatamente tutte le scuole, a parte gli esami, sono chiuse e riapriranno a settembre. Raffaele: [2:47] Sì, generalmente chiudono intorno al 10 giugno, ma già molto prima ci sono tanti studenti che, finite le interrogazioni, finiti i test, i compiti in classe, come si chiamano, lasciano la scuola generalmente verso la fine di maggio. E ha senso proprio per questo discorso del caldo, considera che non siamo neanche ancora in estate ma già fa così caldo. Quando rientreranno a scuola gli studenti, probabilmente troveranno una novità. Bello o brutta? Non lo so, bisogna chiederlo a loro. Matteo: [3:26] Ah, e che novità troveranno? Poveri studenti, poveri studenti. Raffaele: [3:31] Poveri. A partire da settembre 2025 il cellulare in classe sarà vietato anche agli studenti delle scuole superiori. Matteo: [3:42] E questa è una cosa interessante, è un approccio molto... non dittatoriale, mi sembra un po'... dittatoriale mi sembra troppo, però non me lo aspettavo. Raffaele: [3:55] È un approccio forte, no? È stato fatto l'esperimento con le scuole inferiori, chiamiamole così, quindi le scuole elementari, le scuole medie, e poi adesso si è deciso di espandere questo divieto alle scuole superiori. Alle scuole elementari è stato facilissimo: forse nessun bambino alle scuole elementari ha il cellulare. Anzi mi correggo: io conosco tanti bambini che hanno il cellulare in quarta o quinta elementare ma non lo portano proprio a scuola. Alle medie già comincia ad essere complicato perché un po' tutti hanno il cellulare. Al liceo, alle scuole superiori sarà complicato far rispettare questo divieto. Matteo: [4:44] È una cosa interessante anche perché sto cercando di pensare, cercando di empatizzare il più possibile con i ragazzi e i genitori, per quanto posso ovviamente, e non trovo un motivo per andare contro questa decisione: è giusto che tu non puoi usare il cellulare in classe. Raffaele: [5:12] Eh, siamo sempre nel discorso del libero arbitrio, no? In teoria gli studenti dovrebbero capire che non è il caso di utilizzare il cellulare durante la lezione. Spieghiamo un attimo bene come funziona a partire da settembre: praticamente all'ingresso in classe ci sarà una cassettina oppure si utilizzerà semplicemente il cassetto della cattedra dell'insegnante. E ogni studente che entra in classe, oppure quando entra il professore, i ragazzi devono consegnare il cellulare, mettere il cellulare in questa cassettina o nel cassetto, in modalità non disturbare, di modo che vibrazioni e suonerie non diano fastidio. E recuperare il cellulare in teoria alla fine della giornata ma in pratica quando il professore uscirà di classe, i ragazzi andranno a controllarsi le notifiche, salvo poi rimettere il cellulare a posto quando entra il professore dell'ora successiva. Ha senso così? Cioè alla fine è solo un togliere il cellulare agli alunni durante la lezione? Matteo: [6:27] Allora la questione è che abbiamo a che fare con ragazzi giovani che per una questione anche fisica hanno dei seri problemi a comportarsi in maniera logica. Perché si stanno ancora sviluppando e quindi hanno bisogno di avere a che fare con delle regole e con dei divieti, secondo me. Cioè non puoi basarti sempre e solo sulla logicità, e il ragionamento che dovrebbero fare gli studenti, che sono giovani. Raffaele: [7:14] Eh lo so, ma dirgli proprio "lasciate il cellulare qua, spegnete il cellulare, consegnatelo"... Potresti anche dire "spegnetelo però tenetelo voi, ci fidiamo." Perché poi alla fine è quello un po' il discorso. Tu dici: " Non mi fido." Matteo: [7:28] No, il discorso è proprio quello, il discorso è: si può arrivare a quello dopo una... è un po' come nelle disintossicazioni forti, tu mi insegni... No anche tu, se tu vuoi prendere meno caffè, sei arrivato in una situazione in cui ne stai prendendo tanto, non è che inizi a prenderne di meno. Vai un po' drastico i primi periodi. Raffaele: [7:55] Eh non lo so, non lo so, ci sono diversi approcci, per questo non è così semplice la questione, perché tu dici: il cellulare in classe è un male, quindi la soluzione è togliamo il cellulare. Matteo: [8:11] Ma in realtà il cellulare in classe è un male. Raffaele: [8:14] Dipende da cosa ci fai. Matteo: [8:16] Ma in questo momento lasciando stare il "vorrei che fosse", però se eliminiamo il "come vorrei che fosse la classe ideale oggi", il cellulare e l'uso del cellulare in classe distrae solamente. Raffaele: [8:40] Allora voglio chiarire un po' la mia posizione: io fondamentalmente sono d'accordo con te, nel senso che sono d'accordo che dire ad un tredicenne "tieni il cellulare acceso sul banco durante la lezione" è un invito a nozze per lui. E invece di sentirsi il professore di storia e filosofia, aprirà TikTok e si guarderà i video silenziosamente facendo finta di seguire. Quindi diciamo che è un modo per togliere questa distrazione. Idealmente non sarebbe necessario. Idealmente la lezione dovrebbe essere coinvolgente, e ti dirò di più, dovrebbe trovare un modo per coinvolgere i ragazzi attivamente. E perché non coinvolgere anche con l'uso del cellulare? Cioè per me la scuola dovrebbe andare verso una digitalizzazione massiccia, forte, soprattutto in Italia dove invece su questo siamo un po' indietro. Non ci sono abbastanza computer per tutti gli allievi, non ci sono i tablet per tutti e consentire l'utilizzo del cellulare, in maniera coordinata con l'insegnante eh, attenzione... può essere invece un modo per sopperire a questa mancanza. Idealmente, eh... Matteo: [10:03] Sono d'accordo con te. Idealmente. Ma poi basta che... ricordo le mie lezioni di informatica, e non so se tu hai mai fatto lezioni in aula computer in cui c'erano questi grandi computer, dietro i quali... erano così grandi che ti potevi nascondere dietro il monitor. E lo studente, il suo primo obiettivo quando... non il suo primo obiettivo nel senso che si sveglia e pensa che vuole fare questo.... Ma il cervello ha costanti, dà costanti impulsi per distrarti, sempre. E al primo momento noi, anche senza cellulari, perché entrambi abbiamo fatto i nostri studi durante un periodo in cui non c'era proprio il cellulare... Raffaele: [10:58] Usciva, ti dico la verità, si mandavano gli sms. Matteo: [11:01] Sì, vabbè, però, insomma, era così, non... oltretutto era vietato, non potevi metterti col cellulare sul banco. Raffaele: [11:15] Però mi ricordo che già all'ultimo anno di liceo noi avevamo quasi tutti il cellulare e ci mandavamo i messaggini, quindi già si presentava il problema. Non potevi, chiaro che non potevi, però nessuno ti sequestrava nulla. Matteo: [11:28] Eh no, però la questione è che adesso non solo puoi mandare messaggini ma per esempio puoi compromettere un compito in classe, certo probabilmente ci saranno delle metodologie per i quali se c'è il compito in classe il cellulare viene tolto o comunque viene spento o non lo so. Però già la maggior parte degli studenti è ignorante... Ma buttiamoli proprio i cellulari... Cioè secondo me il cellulare genericamente dovrebbe essere iniziato ad usare a 20 anni, perché crea una serie di problemi. A meno che non si inizi a scuola a fare educazione digitale, che può essere anche fatta con carta e penna, però ti iniziano ad educare a come usare i social, come comportarsi, cosa fare, cosa non fare, cosa evitare. Raffaele: [12:31] E qui convergiamo, Matteo: hai detto una cosa bellissima, esattamente quello che proporrei di fare io, perché il problema secondo me non è la distrazione del cellulare sul banco. Certo le elimini, non hai più la distrazione. Ma non educhi a gestire il cellulare, e secondo me il problema di tanti ragazzi di oggi è proprio quello. Pensa che la proposta successiva di questo governo è: niente social media sotto i 15 anni. E di questo poi ne riparliamo magari in un'altra puntata. Però è per dire che secondo me anche questo divieto non è per non far distrarre gli studenti, è per evitare che magari anche gli episodi di bullismo in classe vengano ripresi con i cellulari, poi questi video girino nelle chat, sui social media e creino problemi poi giganteschi. Il problema è proprio quello. Il problema è cosa ci fanno i ragazzi col cellulare. E quindi dovrebbero essere educati all'utilizzo consapevole del cellulare. Secondo me a partire dalla scuola, quindi non sequestrando i cellulari, ma insegnando come usare i cellulari in maniera utile e non fare danni con i cellulari. E poi chiaramente c'è l'altra faccia della medaglia, ovvero una volta usciti da scuola non è che "cellulare libero per tutti, tutta la giornata". Perché attualmente è così, no? La scuola dice "vi vieto il cellulare a scuola, a casa decideranno i genitori, fate quello che volete." Il problema è poi che in questa altra metà della giornata, anche i genitori, anche la famiglia deve continuare con questa educazione all'utilizzo della tecnologia. Matteo: [14:19] Sì sì sì sì, purtroppo l'educazione è un grande problema. Raffaele: [14:33] Dove eravamo rimasti? Ma inteso settimana scorsa? A Roma con i turisti che si rubavano le statue e le basi delle colonne: è successo di nuovo? Non dirmi che è successo di nuovo... Matteo: [14:49] È successo, più o meno. Niente monopattini, niente basi di colonne, ma a quanto pare dei turisti hanno fatto un guaio. Raffaele: [14:59] Un guaio bello grosso e bello caro, molto caro. Parliamo ancora di comportamenti sbagliati nei musei. Questa volta siamo a Verona, un museo che si chiama Palazzo Maffei, che ospita delle opere d'arte. In particolare un'opera d'arte di un artista contemporaneo italiano che si chiama Nicola Bolla, che ha riprodotto una sedia ispirata a uno dei quadri più famosi di Van Gogh. E l'ha riprodotta totalmente fatta di cristallo e Swarovski, quindi uno degli oggetti più fragili per definizione. Raffaele: [15:48] Ebbene, durante una visita a questo museo, una coppia quasi anziana, adesso non sappiamo molti dati, vediamo soltanto le immagini dei video di sorveglianza. Questa coppia di signori anziani, aspetta l'uscita della guardia poi si avvicina furtivamente alla sedia, che si chiama proprio "la sedia di Van Gogh". Fin lì tutto bene, puoi avvicinarti, puoi fare le tue foto. Solo che a un certo punto lui si china e si siede, si appoggia sull'opera d'arte. Adesso, secondo te: è fatta di cristallo, come può andare a finire? (Malissimo. In frantumi.) Esatto. La sedia si è immediatamente spaccata. E, tu dirai: i due mortificati avranno informato la guardia che stava poco distante in qualche altra sala. "Guardate, è successo questo, non volevo, l'ho urtata e si è rotta." Invece i furbastri sono scappati via, hanno fatto finta di nulla, hanno lasciato il museo e si sono dileguati. Le guardie del museo si sono accorte del danno troppo tardi, perché sono uscite dal museo per provare a rintracciare i colpevoli ma non li hanno potuti trovare. E quindi il museo ha fatto una denuncia contro ignoti, si dice in questo caso: è una cosa che è possibile fare quando non sai chi ha fatto il danno, il furto, fai una denuncia contro ignoti. E i carabinieri in questo caso si sono attivati, hanno preso la situazione molto seriamente, dal video sono riconoscibili in volto i due, si vede per bene l'abbigliamento, gli oggetti che portano con sé. E quindi per adesso non l'hanno trovati, ma chissà che non li troveranno a breve. Matteo: [17:55] Beh, ci sono spera... speriamo, ma non tanto per una questione di, come dire: "Voglio punirli". Però non vorrei che iniziasse questo nuovo sport di "fa il danno e poi scappa". Raffaele: [18:15] Sì, no, non va bene. Il danno, tra l'altro, la sedia vale tra i 15.000 e i 50.000 euro, quindi non parliamo di milioni di euro, però comunque è un danno non da poco. E hanno contattato l'artista: fortunatamente l'artista, dopo aver constatato i danni ha detto "ok, sì, la possiamo sistemare." Tra l'altro l'artista è stato intervistato dai giornali e l'ha presa sul filosofico, diciamo così. Ha detto "No, non ci sono rimasto male anzi ci ho visto qualcosa di ironico e positivo, mi è sembrata quasi una performance di arte moderna". Matteo: [19:00] Vabbè certo, è stata registrata, l'ha vista forse. Raffaele: [19:04] Eh, si sarà fatto una risata e ha detto "Mi ha dato persino lo spunto per la prossima opera da realizzare". Matteo: [19:11] Ah, incredibile. Raffaele: [19:13] "Sedia spezzata con turista immortalato accovacciato", chissà. Secondo me questo è il calore. Troppo caldo sta dando alla testa. Hai un antidoto per tutto questo caldo? Matteo: [19:26] Eh certo: andate a mare! Raffaele: [19:35] Eh vabbè ma il mare in Italia... Cioè l'Italia è tutta mare, è una penisola, c'è talmente tanto di quel mare che non sai dove andare. Dove andare a mare? Matteo: [19:48] Possiamo chiederlo ai mitici della bandiera blu. Raffaele: [19:55] La bandiera blu è uno degli strumenti che si utilizza in Italia per identificare le condizioni del mare delle spiagge italiane. Dare una bandiera blu ad una spiaggia vuol dire che lì l'acqua è pulita e bella, è l'idea di massima. Quest'anno in Italia, nel 2025, abbiamo 246 bandiere blu, quindi abbiamo almeno 246 posti da scegliere per avere l'acqua eccellente e addirittura recentemente c'è stato uno studio dei laboratori delle agenzie ambientali che hanno fatto una statistica e hanno visto che la regione con l'acqua più pulita, inteso meno inquinata in tutta Italia, è la Puglia. Il 99,7% delle acque è eccellente, ha una qualità eccellente, quindi l'acqua meno inquinata, praticamente 99,7% vuol dire che è perfetta. (Non male.) Più nello specifico, Matteo, tra l'altro le bandiere blu confermano questo trend e anche il maggior numero di bandiere blu in tutta Italia ce l'hanno Liguria, Puglia e Calabria, quindi si conferma la Puglia tra le migliori destinazioni. Tu sei stato in Puglia, sei stato al mare, ricordi qualche spiaggia, ti va di consigliarmi quella che secondo te è la spiaggia più bella d'Italia o la spiaggia più bella in cui sei stato in Italia? Matteo: [21:40] Allora, io sono stato in Puglia sì. Sono stato nel Gargano. Quindi la parte vicino al tallone dello stivale. E poi sono stato al confine con la Puglia, nel Molise, più verso nord. Siamo andati ogni tanto, siamo sconfinati in Puglia, spiagge un po' più sabbiose. Non sono andato ma dicono che un posto meraviglioso sono le isole Tremiti. Raffaele: [22:18] Eh sì. Matteo: [22:20] Che sono di fronte la Puglia e il Molise. Raffaele: [22:23] Esatto, sono un po' bistrattate, vuol dire maltrattate, spesso dimenticate quando si parla di isole italiane perché pensano tutti quanti alle isole della Sicilia. Mentre invece le Tremiti in Puglia sono una destinazione turistica bella, bella, bella. Matteo: [22:45] Sì. Raffaele: [22:46] Io sono stato in Puglia, non sono stato a mare in Puglia, perché sono stato in inverno, anche nei luoghi insomma che poi d'estate sono belli affollati. Però non ho avuto la possibilità di godere della spiaggia quando sono stato in Puglia. Quindi la mia selezione varia un po' tra Lazio e Campania soprattutto. Ed in particolare ti voglio raccomandare in Campania Marina d'Ascea, anche qui Bandiera Blu, una bella spiaggia ampia, mare molto pulito. Ma non solo, ce ne sono tante. C'è Palinuro. C'è un posto adesso non mi ricordo neanche più come... insomma, in quale zona specificamente si trova. Quando eravamo più ragazzini con la famiglia andavamo in un posto che si chiama "lo scoglio della tartaruga". E si trova a Vico Equense, in provincia di Napoli, non troppo lontano da Sorrento. Ed era un posto fantastico perché tu arrivavi, poi dovevi prendere la barchetta e la barchetta ti portava in questa spiaggia. Si chiama scoglio della tartaruga perché ci sono dei sassi poco distante dalla spiaggia che hanno proprio la forma di una tartaruga. E c'era l'abitudine, adesso non penso sia più consentito, di arrampicarsi su questa tartaruga e tuffarsi dalla testa o dal guscio della tartaruga. Non ci sei mai stato? Non ne hai mai sentito parlare? Matteo: [24:27] No, ricordo vagamente. A Vico Equense ci sono stato spesso quando ero piccolo e tutta quella parte lì è fantastica, ci sono delle spiagge e dei panorami e dei profumi bellissimi. Pino, mi ricordo sempre questo profumo di pino, l'albero e il mare che assieme creano un... Guarda, mi sento a mare adesso solo a pensarci. Raffaele: [25:01] Eh, ma io... infatti questo è un esercizio psicologico. Se penso alla spiaggia e al mare, automaticamente mi rinfresco. Nel Lazio ti consiglio una spiaggia che si chiama Serapo. Tecnicamente la zona, la cittadina a cui appartiene si chiama Gaeta, quindi siamo tra Napoli e Roma, non troppo lontano da Terracina che menziono sempre. Ed è insomma una bella bella spiaggia. Occhio al traffico, non facilissima da raggiungere, bisogna parcheggiare, poi fare delle scalinate... però insomma merita. Secondo alcuni la spiaggia più bella in Italia invece è la spiaggia dei conigli a Lampedusa. Matteo: [25:46] Non ci sono mai stato, è molto famosa tant'è vero che ne ho sentito già parlare. Raffaele: [25:52] Eh sì, effettivamente guardare le foto... sembra di guardare i Caraibi o addirittura le Maldive o la Polinesia. Matteo: [26:02] Ce ne sono tantissime che ricordo in Sardegna. Raffaele: [26:06] Esatto, volevo dire questo. Cioè che ognuno può avere la sua preferita, io non sono mai stato in Sardegna, però secondo tanti le spiagge più belle in Italia sono proprio in Sardegna. Secondo posto forse per la Sicilia e poi Puglia ed altre. Però grosso modo l'idea collettiva è questa: le spiagge più belle in Italia sono in Sardegna. Sei mai stato a mare in Sardegna? Matteo: [26:36] Sì, sono stato a mare in Sardegna per un paio d'anni da giovane, liceale, sono andato con gli amici, ed è stato, penso, il mare più bello che abbia mai visto in vita mia: bellissimo. Limpidissimo. Raffaele: [26:59] Facciamo così: me ne parli un poco nel nostro after show, ci spostiamo di là e approfondiamo questo argomento, e anche qua parliamo di qualche altra cosa. Matteo: [27:12] È vero perché ho fatto qualcosa. Raffaele: [27:15] Cosa hai fatto? Matteo: [27:16] Mistero?

We all get offended when talking about what celebrities we think we look like.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Pippa Hudson speaks to Vanessa Carlon Valerio, Director at Verona’s Palazzo Maffei Museum, about a viral moment where careless tourists caused damage to Van Gogh’s Chair, a crystal-covered artwork, while posing for photos. Captured on video, the clip shows one tourist stumbling onto the chair, causing it to buckle, before fleeing the scene. Kratchanova discusses the aftermath, the museum’s police complaint, and the broader challenges of protecting fragile art in a selfie-obsessed era.

Si tenemos que contestar a la pregunta "¿cuál es el pintor más popular del siglo 19?", la mayoría nombraríamos a Cezanne, Manet o Van Gogh. Algunos dirían que fue Goya o Delacroix. Sin embargo, el más famoso de todos en aquellos años fue alguien al que hoy muy pocos conocemos: William-Adolphe Bouguereau. Por eso el Artesano; Pablo Ortiz de Zárate, nos explica qué ocurrió para al que los grandes pintores consideraban el maestro cayera en el olvido, pasara de moda. La lección de hoy fue Bouguereau y lo es para todos: una musa, no es solo una musa.

Text us your questions!How did the role of "pastor's wife" replace ordination for women in church history? Is the news that there was women's ordination in church history hitting you unexpectedly right now? It's cool, we get it; take a moment and come back when you're ready.Historian and actual pastor's wife Beth Allison Barr returns for a potentially revelatory conversation about her latest book, Becoming the Pastor's Wife: How Marriage Replaced Ordination as a Woman's Path to Ministry. Drawing from extensive research, including archival discoveries and reading 150 pastor's wife books/manuals (yes, that's a real genre), Beth uncovers how the glorification of this role coincided with efforts to restrict women's ordination.This interview weaves eye-opening historical findings with deeply personal experiences. Beth shares stories of pastors' wives—herself included—being treated as church property, essentially an extension of her husband and his ministry rather than a full person. These aren't isolated incidents; they are systematic experiences faced by countless pastors' wives who are expected to provide unpaid ministerial labor while supporting their husband's careers.Perhaps most striking is the historical evidence that women served in virtually every ministry role men did for the first thousand years of Christianity—including as deacons, bishops, and preachers. The rise of complementarian theology—spoiler warning if you're not a regular listener of this podcast—is a modern development that deliberately ignores this rich history.While Beth doesn't shy away from the harm these practices have caused, she leaves us with hope borrowed from Doctor Who's beloved Van Gogh episode: while we can't undo past damage, we can "add to the good pile" by recognizing the truth, stopping harmful practices, and building a better future where women's gifts are fully welcomed in ministry. This is a conversation that will challenge your understanding of church history and inspire you to imagine new possibilities for what the church could be.=====Want to support us?The best way is to subscribe to our Patreon.

In this timely and soul-expanding conversation, visionary guide Alexander Inchbald returns to explore how we can lead, create, and live from a deeper source of clarity. As the world accelerates in complexity and technological noise, Alexander offers a powerful truth: real progress doesn't come from speeding up or chasing after—it comes from rising up and into. He invites us to shift our vantage point—to stop operating from the base of the mountain, caught in reaction and overwhelm, and instead return to the summit, where stillness, vision, and alignment reside. This episode is a masterclass in energetic leadership, soulful branding, and how building a movement emerges not from striving, but from presence. For those feeling the weight of uncertainty, this dialogue is a reminder: your masterpiece was never meant to be created in the valley.

Hadi gelin, bugünkü Ben Saati'nizde bu büyüleyici hikayeye kulak verin.

The White House says it's working on a ceasefire deal for Gaza and that Israel has agreed to the proposal. Hamas is reportedly reviewing the offer, which would include a temporary truce and the release of Israeli hostages. Also, the UN has proposed a plan to do away with physical passports, replacing them with facial recognition technology. This, in a bid to streamline air travel. Also, as Voice of America wanes, Russian state media fills the void. And, a museum exhibit sheds light on Vincent Van Gogh's friendships with his portrait subjects.Listen to today's Music Heard on Air. Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices

A federal judge is ordering the Trump administration not to block or withhold funding for New York state as retaliation for the MTA's congestion pricing program. Plus, the panel that sets the rent for tenants in a million stabilized apartments held a rare "re-vote" on Tuesday. Also, electric bills for New Jersey residents are about to jump up around 20% next month. Meanwhile, bird lovers in Manhattan plan to turn Broadway malls into avian oases. And finally, the New York Botanical Garden's new exhibit pays tribute to Dutch painter Vincent Van Gogh with botanical displays and large scale art.

This summer, the New York Botanical Garden is inviting you to enjoy the flowers of Van Gogh. In the exhibition, "Van Gogh's Flowers," the Botanical Garden has brought Van Gogh's paintings to life with flower installations. Joanna Groarke, NYBG's vice president for exhibitions and programming, speaks more about the show, and previews the "Starry Night evenings" that feature live music and performance art. "Van Gogh's Flowers" opens to the public on May 24 and runs through October 26.

What if you were primarily know for for the most shameful thing about you? Most people, if they know anything about Van Gogh, know that he cut off his ear. What brought this visionary painter to such a place of despair and shame? And once we know the actual story of why he wounded himself in this way, what obligation do we have to steward his painful story well? This seminar digs into the circumstances surrounding Vincent’s beautiful and tragic final years, and examines how to care well for fellow sufferers.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

According to new police data, subway crime in New York City is at historic lows. However, felony assaults on trains are up 20 percent. Meanwhile, a new exhibit at the New York Botanical Garden in the Bronx pays tribute to Vincent Van Gogh. Plus, forest fire season is underway in New Jersey. Major wildfires in both the north and south of the state over the past year have put large areas at risk. Eric Weber, assistant division fire warden for the state Forest Fire Service, joins us to talk about how to reduce that risk.

In his new book, Blueprints, Marcus du Sautoy traces the connections between mathematics and art and the ways in which creatives use numbers to underpin their work – unconsciously or otherwise. From the earliest stone circles to the unique architecture of Zaha Hadid, du Sautoy shows us that there are blueprints everywhere and how logic and aesthetics are intrinsically intermingled. Sophie Pavelle is also interested in connections and her forthcoming book, To Have or To Hold, explores symbiotic relationships in nature. Focusing on eight key examples, Sophie Pavelle explains how these mutually beneficial connections are crucial for the survival of our natural world and how they play an integral role in regulating ecosystems and strengthening resilience. She asks if we are capable of restoring and nurturing our environment or will we continue to exploit the Earth's resources, till death do us part? The British Museum's new exhibition illuminates the captivating work of the nineteenth-century Japanese artist, Utagawa Hiroshige (from 1st May to 7th September 2025). He was fascinated by the natural world and many of his pictures take flora and fauna as their subject matter. Hiroshige was one of Japan's most talented, prolific and popular artists and his influence was not only felt in his home country, but spread globally – influencing artists such as Vincent Van Gogh and contemporary artists such as Julian Opie. The curator of the exhibition, Alfred Haft, shines a light on the oeuvre of Hiroshige, his techniques and enduring legacy.Producer: Natalia Fernandez

Joan Fernandez is a former senior marketing executive and general partner of the financial powerhouse Edward Jones. In 2018, she retired from a 30+ year career to be a full-time writer. Since leaving the corporate world, she's become a member of the Historical Novel Society, the Author's Guild, and the Women's Fiction Writers Association (WFWA). In April 2020, she founded a Historical Fiction affinity group within WFWA that grew from a handful of people to nearly two hundred authors. Her debut novel, Saving Vincent: A Novel of Jo van Gogh, has just come out — and I had the great privilege of coaching Joan at two points in her long process of writing this book so I had a front row seat to the deep work she did to bring this story to life.

Rowan Gallagher is a devoted single mother and a talented architect with a high-profile commission restoring an historic mansion for the most powerful family in Maine. But inside, she's a mess. She knows that stalking her ex's avatar all over Portland on her phone isn't the healthiest way to heal from their breakup. But she's out of ice cream and she's sick of romcoms. Watching his every move is both fascinating and infuriating. He's dining out while she's wallowing on the couch. The last straw comes when he parks in their favorite spot on the waterfront. In a weak moment, she leashes the dog and sets off to see who else is in his car. Instead of catching her ex in a kiss, Rowan becomes the first witness to his murder—and the primary suspect.Digital books at: Amazon | Nook | Apple Books | Kobo | Google Play | Audible Physical books at: Bookshop.org | Amazon | Barnes & Noble | Indigo | More paperback links here!
