Today we're joined by actress Vella Lovell, whose path to the screen began with a childhood dream of Juilliard—sparked by a Babysitters Club character—and eventually led her to the school not once, but twice. Vella currently stars opposite Joel McHale in Fox's Animal Control, returning for its third season in 2025. She previously starred alongside Ted Danson and Holly Hunter in Mr. Mayor, earning a 2021 HCA TV Award nomination for her role as Chief of Staff Mikaela Shaw. She's also beloved for her standout turns as ‘Heather' in Crazy Ex-Girlfriend. In this episode, Vella opens up about the intensity of Juilliard's training, booking her first pilot after a silent retreat, and how her background in classical piano unexpectedly informs her comedy work. She talks about navigating set life, the business side of acting no one teaches you, and why it's so important to celebrate the wins—big or small—along the way. These are the unforgettable stories that landed Vella Lovell right here.

Golf has long been the most popular pastime of professional jockeys. Some have attained a very high level in the sport, others are happy to “puddle” around once or twice a week with a few mates. Highly respected southern districts jockey Richard Bensley has come up with a recreation far removed from conventional sports. Thanks to the influence of his late father Bryson, Richard is a master exponent of the ancient art of carriage driving. He frequently jumps into a sparkling old world buggy drawn by a high stepping Hackney and competes at the highest level. He's also ridden more than 900 winners in a successful 25 year career mostly on southern district tracks. Richard Bensley is a podcast guest with a difference. He talks firstly about a promising mare he's been riding just lately for Goulburn trainer Patrick Murphy. He acknowledges the talents of former jockey Pat Murphy. Richard talks about the equine skills of his late father Bryson, his father-in-law Rick Jones and late mother Joanne who was also a noted horsewoman. The successful jockey talks about his Goulburn property and the large number of horse drawn vehicles tucked away in a shed. One of those vehicles is a century old hearse. He talks about the never ending work involved in maintaining leather harness and brass fittings. Richard talks about the English bred Hackney, the horse most commonly used in carriage driving around the world. The breed is diminishing but the jockey does his bit to help save the species. He pays tribute to wife Melissa, son Mitchell and daughter Chelsea. Richard remembers the occasion when breeder Peter Stewart told Bryson that his son's feet were too big for him to even consider becoming a jockey. He recalls a chance conversation his father had with trainer Ken Callaughan who'd only just moved to the new Goulburn training complex. That conversation changed Richard's life. The jockey hasn't forgotten Callaughan's all round horsemanship skills. He remembers his hometrack debut on a Callaughan runner in 2000, and the thrill of his first win at Cootamundra. Richard says it took him a long time to ride a city winner. He acknowledges his successful association with trainer Nick Olive for whom he rode more than one hundred winners. Richard looks back on some of the nice horses he got to ride for the Olive stable. The jockey looks back with delight on a Black Opal Stakes win for old friend trainer Gratz Vella. He takes us through his win on You're Canny. Richard expresses his appreciation of the staunch support he had from the Vella stable. He looks back on a winning association with Loved Up, a talented mare from the Brett Cavanough yard. Richard remembers a black type win on Loved Up in the Scone Guineas and the unlikely circumstances that brought him a second stakes win on the same day. The forty two year old speaks highly of The Monstar, another talented horse from the Brett Cavanough stable. He got to ride the sprinter in a couple of high quality races in Melbourne. Richard names a handful of outstanding country jockeys for whom he's had high regard throughout his career. He looks back on a second placing in a Rosehill TAB Highway destined to be promoted by default. Richard confirms that retirement is not yet on the radar. That applies to race riding and carriage driving.
After my dad died, a powerful and unexpected connection unfolded when my brother and I discovered the Men's Shed in Lethbridge — a community where men come together for connection, healing, and support. That's where I met Mark Vella.Mark turned out to be so much more than the man running the Men's Shed. Originally from Australia and now living in Canada, Mark is also a men's coach who helps guide men through deep healing work. He's a conscious father, a mentor, and someone who has walked through his own dark night of the soul — emerging with more presence, wisdom, and heart.His personal journey through grief, COVID isolation, and spiritual awakening led him to explore forgiveness across his family lineage and commit to showing up as a fully present parent and human being.Beyond his work with the Men's Shed and his coaching, Mark befriended my mom and has gone above and beyond with kindness and support during a time of deep loss — something I'll always be grateful for.In this conversation, we talk about: • The importance of brotherhood and community for men • The Men's Shed organization — a global movement supporting men's mental health, connection, and purpose (and how you can start one in your area) • How all healing is spiritual healing • The delicate art of meeting men where they are on their journey • Forgiveness work across generations • Conscious fatherhood and breaking generational cycles • Living with presence, purpose, and heartMark's story is rich with compassion, wisdom, and the grounded spiritual path of healing that so many men are longing for.Thank you for listening to Winning the Divine Lottery!If this episode moves you, share it with someone who needs it, tag me, and leave a review.We're creating ripples of transformation, one conversation at a time.Quantum Custom Soul Painting: https://www.amydawns.com/quantumsoulpaintingsBook Your Soul Reading with Me : https://www.amydawns.com/soulsessionsAsk Amy: https://www.amydawns.com/coachingalignmentMore About Mark:Mark Vella is a Certified Performance Development & Life Coach, the Founder of KHEM Wellness, and the Executive Director of the Men's Shed in Lethbridge & Coaldale, Southern Alberta.

Despois de anos de demandas veciñais, Ferrol Vello conta por fin cun caixeiro automático. O dispositivo comezou a instalarse onte na rúa San Francisco, preto do estanco, e foi recibido con grande entusiasmo polos residentes e pola Asociación de Veciños, que levaban décadas reclamándoo. A presidenta da AVV, María Xosé Peniza, amosou a súa sorpresa e ledicia ante a chegada inesperada deste servizo, do que aínda se descoñece quen foi o responsable da súa xestión. O barrio, con máis de 25 establecementos hostaleiros, actividade turística e portuaria, carecía ata agora dun punto para retirar efectivo desde a retirada do antigo caixeiro na Capitanía. Ademais, este sábado os veciños organizan un mercadiño de segunda man, antigüidades e artesanía na Praza Vella, unha iniciativa que busca dinamizar a vida do barrio e atraer visitantes, coincidindo coa chegada deste novo servizo tan esperado.

Aquesta fotografia, del fons de Joaquim de Dalmau i Capestany, que podeu trobar al web de l'arxiu digital de Sitges, té una germana gairebé bessona, que descobrí un casteller de la vella de Valls ara fa 10 anys. Per tant, durant la sortida d'ofici de la Festa Major del 1900, dos fotògrafs diferents immortalitzaren la imatge d'un pilar de 5 de la Vella de Valls. La publicació de la fotografia del fons Dalmau, del qual en parlavem fa uns dies amb Eduard Tomàs, ha sacsejat el món casteller perquè, probablement, es tracta del castell més antic de la història dels castells del qual se'n conserven dues fotografies diferents. Santi Terraza, president de la Jove de Sitges, l'explica tota en un article de la revista Castells, del qual n'hem fet conversa. L'entrada Aquell castell de la Vella immortalitzat dues vegades durant la sortida d’ofici de 1900. Santi Terraza ens explica una foto històrica ha aparegut primer a Radio Maricel.

Cette semaine, nous vous emmenons à la découverte de nous-même, car la santé passe aussi par nos émotions et la manière dont nous les gérons. Avec Marion Kaplan, nous avons reçu un artiste troubadour, concertiste virtuose, co-fondateur de « l'Ecole de la fausse note » (France, Belgique et Suisse), conférencier, célèbre pour sa caravane amoureuse et son piano qu'il promène aux quatre coins du monde, Marc Vella. Il harmonise ses notes autant que ses émotions. Si la musique adoucit les mœurs… Mais elle pourrait bien faire beaucoup plus et ses pouvoirs pourraient être thérapeutiques. Pourrait-on se libérer de nos traumas, accepter nos erreurs ou encore nos trébuchements … en considérant la « fausse note » comme la note nécessaire pour créer l'harmonie ? Nous vous invitons à un voyage qui pourrait vous faire aller de mieux en mieux… A lire « La sagesse de nos fausses notes » de Marc Vella aux éditions Ariane A voir : www.marcvella.com

By mid-1943, the Allies were advancing through the Solomons, pushing toward Rabaul. After securing Guadalcanal and New Georgia, their next target was Vella Lavella. Unlike previous battles, the Japanese opted to withdraw rather than defend the island outright, but the fight was far from easy. Marines, Seabees, and New Zealand forces faced logistical chaos, relentless air attacks, and fierce resistance from the remaining enemy troops. As U.S. forces established a foothold, Japanese commanders launched a last-ditch evacuation, leading to a violent clash. Vella Lavella proved the growing strength of Allied coordination, air superiority, and adaptability in island warfare. With the island secured, the path to Bougainville, and ultimately Rabaul, was open. ************* Visit HistoryoftheMarineCorps.com to subscribe to our newsletter, explore episode notes and images, and see our references.

During the most recent adventure of Little Kids, Big Hearts, "Fairness with Vella Lovell and Meredith Holzman," three kids — Bodhi, Aubrey, and Will — travel with LKBH host Todd Loyd to the Land of Qook-a-lackas to help two Qook-a-lacka friends "qook-a-late" to retsore fairness to the Land. Today, we're back to challenge our listeners to go on their own FAIRNESS QUEST, inspired by the episode and the words/actions of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. — whose legacy of justice, equality, and human rights we celebrated this week. Todd and LKBH Producer Christy Pusz Decatur issue our first-ever challenge our listeners to (1) notice something that seems unfair, (2) think about ways to help, and then (3) take action to help someone else feel included, valued, or supported. This is our first-ever challenge episode, and we'd be overjoyed if our listeners could take a moment to share how their families interpreted the fairness quest with a few words or a picture! You can share on instagram (@little_kids_big_hearts_podcast), facebook (@LittleKidsBigHeartsPodcast), or just email us: podcast@playsparkler.org. Following the MISSION, turn up the volume and sing/dance along to a brand-new Little Kids, Big Hearts original song: When Something's Unfair.
