Former Vikings player and current radio announcer Pete Bercich joined the show to preview Sunday's game from a Viking stand-point.

In the first hour of the show, Laurence Holmes & Matt Spiegel discuss Bears Head Coach Ben Johnson getting his first revenge game this weekend against Minnesota after losing to the Viking week 1.

Mes chers camarades, bien le bonjour !Imaginez : vous êtes au large des côtes nordiques à bord de votre navire viking, aux côtés de vos camarades. La mer s'étend à perte de vue, sa surface bleue profonde vous appelle à avancer. Et pourtant, aucun compas, aucune carte moderne pour vous guider. Seulement la mémoire des marins et la lecture des courants, du soleil, des étoiles, le bruit des oiseaux. Comment les vikings naviguaient-ils réellement à cette époque sans instrument moderne ? Les sagas nordiques et chroniques anciennes regorgent de descriptions fascinantes et les découvertes archéologiques complètent ces récits. Mais seulement en partie. En mai 2025, une étude publiée dans “Journal of Archaeological Method and Theory” propose de combiner archéologie expérimentale et modélisations numériques pour compléter les sources écrites et archéologiques. Après tout, c'est en forgeant qu'on devient forgeron. Alors peut-être que c'est en naviguant qu'on devient navigateur ?Bonne écoute !➤ Un grand merci à Lucie Malbos pour avoir répondu à mes questions !

You know how Vikings are often associated with Scandinavia and their epic journeys across the seas? Well, turns out, there's a lesser-known Viking connection right in New York City! Back in the 9th century, Norse explorers are believed to have landed in the area we now call New York, long before Columbus or any other Europeans. Archaeological finds like a Norse coin and a runic stone in the Hudson Valley provide tantalizing clues. So, while we typically think of skyscrapers and subways when we think of New York, it's pretty cool to imagine Vikings roaming those same streets over a thousand years ago!

Welcome back to The Literary Life podcast and our series on Aldous Huxley's Brave New World. Angelina Stanford, Thomas Banks, and Ella Hornstra open the conversation by sharing their commonplace quotes, then jump into the book discussion with some connections between Huxley and Lewis Carroll and how Brave New World is like Alice in Wonderland. Angelina also teaches about the medieval conception of the tripartite soul and how it relates to this story, as well as making some distinctions between literary satire and parody. They talk about more of the pictures of Freudian principles as illustrated in this society, as well as the way in which the characters live like machines. Ella goes into a little introductory information on Shakespeare's The Tempest and its connections to Brave New World to keep in mind as we continue reading. Don't forget to check out this coming year's annual Literary Life Online Conference, happening January 23-30, 2026, "The Letter Killeth, but the Spirit Quickeneth: Reading Like a Human". Our speakers will be Dr. Jason Baxter, Jenn Rogers, Dr. Anne Phillips, and, of course, Angelina Stanford and Thomas Banks. Also, we are excited to announce the upcoming spring course with Dr. Michael Drout, Viking and Old Norse Culture. Learn more and register at HouseofHumaneLetters.com.

In this lively episode of The Buffalo Brews Podcast, Jason and Bri kick things off with a little technical drama as their trusty Old Reliable Zoom PodTrak P4 fills in for the temperamental P8. From there, the duo dives into a cozy, conversational recap of their autumn adventures — blending humor, storytelling, and that unmistakable Buffalo energy.They chat about Halloween and daylight savings woes, swapping stories about mornings and early sunsets. Then it's on to October camping tales, where the weather at Allegheny State Park refused to cooperate — rain, rain, and more rain — but the fun still flowed with Viking costumes, turkey legs, homemade mead, and even a first attempt at Viking bread.The journey continues through Hikemania 2, exploring Genesee County Park's haunted history, hidden graves, and birdwatching with the Merlin app, before heading to Letchworth State Park — the “Grand Canyon of the East.” Between cider donuts, Porsche sightings, and fall foliage, Jason and Bri find beauty (and beer) in every detour.Their road trip wraps up in Rochester with an impromptu craft beer crawl — cider donut sours at K2 Brewing, autumn sunshine in Fairport, and hearty German fare at Faircraft Brauhaus (including a legendary German garbage plate).Full of laughter, local flavor, and a few soggy hiking boots, this episode perfectly captures the Buffalo Brews spirit: great company, great beer, and great stories — rain or shine.Visit our website at BuffaloBrewsPodcast.comEmail: buffalobrewsPR@gmail.comFollow us on social media.Instagram: @BuffaloBrewsPodcast Facebook: @BuffaloBrewsPodcastTikTok: @BuffaloBrewsYouTube: @BuffaloBrewsPodcastX/Twitter: @BuffaloBrewsPod

4. Post-Apollo Budget Cuts and the Rise of Robotic Mars Exploration. Matthew Shindell discusses how following the success of Apollo, NASA proposed extending the human space program to Mars. However, President Nixon, recognizing shifting political priorities, chose to divert funding toward domestic issues like civil rights and poverty. As a result, NASA's post-Apollo budget levels dropped significantly, forcing space exploration to compete with other national needs. This led to the expansion of highly successful robotic exploration programs. Mariner 4 and 9 provided increasingly detailed images, and the Viking landers in the mid-1970s allowed scientific operations directly on the Martian surface. After a two-decade pause, exploration returned with greater vengeance via rovers like Sojourner, Spirit, Opportunity, and the recent Perseverance and Ingenuity helicopter. While technological capabilities have grown, a human mission to Mars remains incredibly ambitious due to the persistent challenges of ensuring human safety, providing shelter from radiation, and managing life support for the long duration of the trip. 1956 Retry

Who were the Vikings' ancient ancestors? In this episode Tristan Hughes explores the fascinating maritime culture, sophisticated trade networks and social hierarchies of the Nordic Bronze Age c. 1800–700 BC. Joined by Professor Johan Ling, they shed light on how proto-Viking societies of ancient Scandinavia imported essential metals, crafted stunning rock art using bronze tools and operated complex trade routes extending to Britain, Iberia and beyond. Enigmatic religious practices and the pivotal role played by elite kinship networks are brought to life through remarkable archaeological finds such as horned helmets and a golden sun chariot to reveal the remarkable complex societies that preceded the Viking Age.MOREThe Bronze Age CollapseMycenae: Cradle of Bronze Age GreecePresented by Tristan Hughes.

Rob Warner is back on The Ride Companion! In this episode, Rob joins Olly and Davi to talk about his first ever trip to Red Bull Rampage, what it was like to finally see the venue in person, the true scale you can't capture on TV and what it feels like watching riders hit massive freeride lines for the very first time. The lads also dig into the harsh realities of athletes pushing big-mountain freeride and action sports to the absolute limit. Rob opens up about living with ADHD and autism, how it feels being so publicly outspoken about it, and how commentary helps him find flow state. He also reflects on his recent ADHD diagnosis film series, shares details about his new projects, a Viking death-road film in the Scottish Highlands, a rap collab in New York, and the long-awaited return of the Egg Cult with The Whole Egg-chilada.

Moment Teater gör lekfull satir om Olof Rudbeck som på 1600-talet övertygades om att Sverige var den första civilisationen. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. -Att det finns nån sorts sjunken storhet nånstans och om vi väcker upp den så blir vi idag bättre på nåt sätt, det är tokigt alltså, säger Andreas Boonstra, manusförfattare och regissör till pjäsen Atlantis Hyperborea på Moment Teater i Gubbängen, Stockholm.Vetenskapsmannen Olof Rudbeck gjorde många riktiga rön och insatser på sin tid, bland annat upptäckte han lymfkärlen och låg bakom den första botaniska trädgården och anatomiska teatern i Uppsala. Men det han brann mest för var att hitta bevis för att det mytomspunna idealsamhället Atlantis som Platon beskrivit helt enkelt var det gamla Uppsala.Moment Teaters folkbildande föreläsningsfars berättar om Olof Rudbecks liv med tydliga blinkningar till vår samtid.

Full show notes and ad-free listening at wickedproblems.earthShipping is one of those things that's just supposed to work. Post-Titanic, we created a set of rules that currently are looked after by the International Maritime Organization (IMO), which successfully removed much of the drama from shipping — so successful that Britain's “Shipping Forecast” is now soothing ASMR for bedtime listening. But last month at the IMO in London, what should have been a procedural meeting on decarbonising shipping turned into something far messier. According to a Financial Times investigation, U.S. officials didn't just lobby against a global carbon levy on shipping — they allegedly threatened, intimidated and black-mailed delegates from smaller nations. Developing-country delegates said they were warned their ships would face higher U.S. port fees, their officials denied visas, and their trade punished if they didn't abandon support for the Net Zero Framework the IMO had endorsed only six months earlier. “It was like dealing with the Mob,” one diplomat told the FT. In the end, it worked. The deal — the world's first carbon-pricing mechanism for global shipping — was postponed for a year. The IMO, normally the most technocratic of international bodies, was left “in a state of complete shock.” For the uninitiated this may sound arcane. But shipping matters. Roughly 90 % of global trade moves by sea; the sector accounts for about 3 % of global CO₂ emissions — more than Germany — and until now has been largely outside the reach of meaningful climate regulation. The Net Zero Framework was meant to change that. It had already been provisionally agreed by a majority of countries in April. But by October, something changed. Countries like China, India, Panama, Liberia — and even Greece and Cyprus, who broke with the EU line — suddenly voted to adjourn. news.wickedproblems.ukAnd the shift didn't come from nowhere: it came from pressure. From a U.S. administration that now treats climate policy as an existential threat to American interests.

The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly Motherf*ckers Before the Predator conducts his 2025 theatrical hunt in the Badlands, his animated counterparts are hosting a contest on Hulu where the winner is proclaimed Killer of Killers. How much competition will a Viking mother, an exiled Japanese brother, and an aspiring WWII pilot be for the homicidal aliens once they're ripped away from historical battles and transported to a space arena?  And can the trio overcome their thirst for vengeance and find a way to get back to Earth collaboratively?  If it streams, we can kill it in a podcast review available now!

Joe Sudbay guests hosts while John is on his California cruise trip. Joe discusses Trump's Halloween glitzy Great Gatsby party - flouting lavishness while millions panic over SNAP benefits being constrained. He also talks about the major elections happening in New Jersey, Virginia, California, and New York. Then, he speaks with Jessica Mackler who is the president of EMILYs list. EMILYs List is backing both Democratic governor candidates (Mikie Sherrill in New Jersey and Abigail Spanberger in Virginia), as well as women candidates in every top red-to-blue flip opportunity in Virginia's House of Delegates races. In the last Southern state without an abortion ban, this year, Virginia's House will determine if voters can protect reproductive freedom through a constitutional amendment. And then finally, Joe interviews Alejandro Varela. His debut novel, The Town of Babylon was a finalist for the National Book Award. His latest novel, Middle Spoon, was published by Viking on September 9, 2025. His novels and stories take public health topics — from systemic racism to gentrification to sexuality — and make them accessible and memorable. Varela is an editor-at-large of Apogee Journal, and holds a masters degree in public health from the University of Washington.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Kabir is the most alive of all dead poets. He is a fabric without stitches. No centres, no edges. Anand threads his way in. Over the years, as a publisher and editor, Anand immerses himself in the works of Babasaheb Ambedkar and other anticaste thinkers. He gives up his practice of music and poetry, blaming his disenchantment on caste. One day in Delhi, Anand starts looking for Kabir. He finds him here, there, everywhere. He begins to pay attention to the many ways in which Kabir's words are sung, and translates them. Soon, Kabir starts looking out for Anand. The songs of Kabir sung by a range of singers—Prahlad Tipaniya, Fariduddin Ayaz, Mukhtiyar Ali, Kumar Gandharva, Kaluram Bamaniya, Mahesha Ram and other wayfarers—make Anand return to music and poetry. Anand translates songs seldom found in books. Along the way, he witnesses Kabir drawing on the Buddha, often restating ancient suttas in joyous ways. The Notbook of Kabir is the result of this pursuit with no end in sight. This is the story of how Anand loses himself trying to find Kabir.

At first glance, the sequel to the zombie movie 28 Days Later and 28 Weeks Later is not an obvious pick for a podcast about Arthurian movies. However, after watching a few minutes, it's fairly evident that the movie isn't just a commentary on post-Brexit Britain, the weaponization of nostalgia, and the dangers of Little Englanders, it's playing with all of British history, from the end of its place as part of the Roman Empire--an end that leads to the creation of the Arthurian legend--to the Viking incursions, to the Henry V, the rise and fall of the British Empire, World War II, and the decrepit ruling class that protected monsters like Jimmy Savile and Prince Andrew. Beyond that, it's a meditation on death and compassion, one which asks us to, as the Latin phrase goes, memento mori. Starring Alfie Williams, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Jodie Comer, Ralph Fiennes, Edvin Rydig, Jack O'Connell, and Chi Lewis-Parry. Written by Alex Garland. Directed by Danny Boyle.   This is a preview of the latest episode of our series Hollywood Avalon.

This week, Simon Moya-Smith and Julie Francella joined John for a spooky-season conversation that blended truth, history, and humor. They talked about Halloween, Día de los Muertos, and how Indigenous traditions honor those who came before us.They also tackled headlines that can't be ignored:Vice President J.D. Vance's harmful claim that Indigenous peoples practiced “widespread child sacrifice”, and why that myth has deep colonial roots.The Blackfeet Nation's buffalo and elk harvests to feed families during the government shutdown: a powerful act of food sovereignty and self-reliance.And the real “scary story” is how rhetoric from leaders continues to erase Indigenous truths while tribal nations keep showing what leadership looks like.Listeners called in with great questions, including Kendall, who got into a heated debate about mascots! Spoiler alert: Viking mascots were mentioned and Simon dropped a few "cabron" and "pendejo" bombs! It was an episode about myth-busting, survival, and remembering that even in spooky season, truth has power.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Back in 2011, I gave a lecture called “The Coming Storm for Dentistry.” I warned that insurance companies would choke reimbursements while corporate dentistry scaled up and swallowed private practices.Fourteen years later… well, here we are.In this week's Practice Autonomy Podcast, we open that time capsule and compare those predictions to the real 2025 data — and it's chillingly accurate:

What does it take to preserve one of the most iconic Viking sites in the world — while also keeping it alive and relevant for new generations?In this episode, we speak with Veronica Björkman, site manager at Birka Vikingastaden, about the balance between archaeology, tourism, and cultural storytelling. We talk about grave finds, the Christian cross at Birka, how modern reconstructions are handled, and how ended up leading one of Sweden's most historically significant destinations.We also dive into her role in co-founding the Birka Historical Tattoo Fest, the challenge of interpreting history without distorting it, and what it really means to “experience the Viking Age” today.Subscribe to stay updated!

Speaking from his Brown County home, Reverend Peyton of Reverend Peyton's Big Damn Band shared his deep passion for music as a universal language, describing how audiences worldwide, even in countries where English isn't spoken, connect with American roots music. He reflected on the rich, multicultural origins of American music—from West African vocal traditions and Celtic rhythms to Hawaiian guitar techniques—and how these influences have shaped blues, country, and rock. Peyton traced his own diverse ancestry, from Norman and Viking roots to West African heritage, and sees a connection between his lineage and his musical inclinations. Discussing his creative process, he explained that he writes daily, letting melody guide lyrics and drawing inspiration from life, nature, and travel. While fame brings challenges, Peyton treasures the global friendships forged through his music and advises young artists to create primarily for themselves, trusting that authenticity will find its audience. He also shared details of his upcoming Bloomington performance and noted that his latest album is under consideration for a Grammy, emphasizing that true artistry comes from passion, heritage, and the joy of making music.Follow host Tom Alvarez on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and TikTok.Watch Tom every other Thursday on Lifestyle Live on WISH-TV, and listen every week on the All Indiana Podcast Network.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

⛪ Blood and Papal Gold – Part One Presented by the Evio Creative Podcast Network Before the Vatican was marble and gold… before the Church had armies and crowns… there was Rome — a ruin with a heartbeat. In this first half of The Keys of Blood: The Assassination of Pope John VIII, we enter the smoke and silence of the ninth century — a time when popes ruled by letter instead of sword, when faith was a fragile currency, and when the empire that once conquered the world had been reduced to a city clinging to its own memory. ⚜️ Episode I: The Broken Empire Europe is in fragments. Charlemagne's heirs bicker over borders while Viking and Saracen raiders carve the continent apart. Into this chaos steps Pope John VIII, a scholar forced into kingship. His Rome is a relic surrounded by wolves, and his only weapon is diplomacy — or what's left of it. But when he dares to pay tribute to Saracen pirates to spare the city, his mercy is mistaken for weakness, and whispers of betrayal begin to echo through the marble halls of the Lateran. ⚓ Episode II: The Pope and the Pirates As the raiders tighten their grip, John is forced to choose between faith and survival. His decision to ransom Rome with gold saves lives but shatters his reputation. The Frankish kings mock him; the clergy call him coward; the nobles begin to conspire. When he crowns Charles the Bald as Holy Roman Emperor, hoping for salvation, the emperor dies within months — leaving the papacy more isolated than ever. Rome's enemies circle closer, and John's greatest fear becomes clear: the Church will not fall to pagans, but to its own believers.

In 1656, Croatian stonemason Jure Grando was buried alive after defying powerful monks, only to rise from his grave and terrorize his village for sixteen years—knocking on doors that meant death would soon follow, violating his widow night after night, and when villagers finally opened his coffin in 1672, they found him grinning with tears streaming down his face, immune to wooden stakes, screaming as they sawed through his neck in what became Europe's first documented case of vampirism.Support our Halloween “Overcoming the Darkness” campaign to help people with depression: https://weirddarkness.com/HOPEIN THIS EPISODE: Before Dracula ever set foot in Transylvania, the village of Kringa, Croatia, was haunted by Jure Grando—the first recorded vampire in European history. For sixteen years, his undead reign brought terror to the living and torment to his widow. But when the villagers finally rose against him, they unearthed a horror beyond imagination. (Jure Grando: The First Vampire) *** For nearly a millennium, a monstrous black dog with eyes like burning coals has stalked the foggy coastlines and ancient churches of East Anglia, leaving death and terror in its silent wake. From its first recorded appearance in 1127 where it led a spectral hunting party through Peterborough, to its most infamous attack in 1577 when it allegedly killed four churchgoers, the creature known as Black Shuck has become far more than just another ghost story. Through centuries of sightings and evolving folklore, this massive demon hound has transformed from a Viking guardian spirit into one of Britain's most enduring legends - one that some locals insist still prowls the shadows of Norfolk and Suffolk to this day. (Black Shuck: East Anglia's Demon Hound) *** In 1857 London, the Bacon family's home became the center of supernatural chaos when mysterious sounds and flying objects drew crowds of over a thousand spectators to their modest Bermondsey residence. But when thirteen-year-old Caroline confessed to creating the ghostly disturbances using strands of hair to topple objects, her deception was revealed as an act of rebellion against her father and new stepmother. This tale of a fake haunting offers a poignant glimpse into Victorian family dynamics and the desperate measures one girl took to assert her independence. (The Bermondsey Poltergeist) *** In October 1975, what began as a late-night drive for two young men in rural Maine turned into an encounter that would haunt them forever. David Stephens had no memory of being taken aboard a massive UFO by mushroom-headed beings until months later, when hypnosis sessions revealed the terrifying truth about the hours he lost that night – an experience so profound that it would drive his friend Glen to flee the state and change both their lives forever. (Night of the Mushroom Men) *** Could the Moon's perfect positioning—exactly 400 times smaller than the Sun and precisely placed for total eclipses—be more than cosmic coincidence? Authors Christopher Knight and Alan Butler propose a mind-bending theory: that future humans (or their advanced robots) traveled back in time 4.6 billion years to construct the Moon, creating the exact conditions needed for life on Earth to emerge. Their provocative hypothesis suggests we might be caught in an infinite loop, with humanity traveling to the past to ensure its own creation, much like the ancient symbol of Ouroboros—a snake eternally consuming its own tail.
