Our striker falls out with Liverpool and we meet two furry besties having the time of their lives. Okay, but first this morning, will you be sending a Christmas card to your friends this year where King Charles and Queen Camilla have been showing off their official card?我们的前锋与利物浦闹翻了，而我们也会见到两位毛茸茸的好朋友，正在享受他们人生中最快乐的时光。好了，但首先今早——你今年会给朋友们寄圣诞卡吗？查尔斯国王和卡米拉王后已经展示了他们的官方圣诞卡。It shows the royals on a recent trip to Rome in Italy. The Prince and Princess of Wales have also been getting into the festive spirit along with their children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.卡片上展示的是他们最近前往意大利罗马旅行的照片。威尔士亲王与王妃也和他们的孩子——乔治王子、夏洛特公主和路易王子——一起融入了节日的氛围。They all attended a special Christmas carol service at Westminster Abbey in London.他们全家参加了在伦敦威斯敏斯特教堂举行的一场特别圣诞颂歌活动。Okay, football now and there's been very strong words from Liverpool superstar Mohamed Salah who has hit out saying he's getting all the blame for the team's problems this season.好了，现在说足球。利物浦球星穆罕默德·萨拉赫发表了强烈言论，指责自己成了本赛季球队所有问题的“背锅者”。The striker has been dropped from the team in the club's last three games after Liverpool's bad run in the Premier League and with the transfer window opening soon, he also said he wasn't sure if he would be playing for Liverpool again.由于利物浦在英超表现不佳，这名前锋在球队最近三场比赛中被排除在名单之外。而随着转会窗即将开启，他也表示自己不确定是否会继续为利物浦效力。Well, let's stay with a bit of sport now. The torch for next year's Winter Olympics has arrived in Italy's capital Rome.好吧，我们继续聊体育。明年冬奥会的火炬已经抵达意大利首都罗马。The games take place in the country in February and the flame will now travel on a two-month relay around Italy.冬奥会将于明年二月在意大利举行，火种现在将开始为期两个月的全国接力之旅。The journey will finish in the city of Milan when the torch will enter the famous San Siro football stadium on the evening of the 6th of February, ready for the opening ceremony of the Winter Games.火炬旅程将在米兰结束，2 月 6 日晚上将进入著名的圣西罗足球场，为冬奥会开幕式做好准备。Right, with the end of term just around the corner, not long now, it's time to start thinking about all the Christmas telly we can enjoy. Here's what's coming up.好了，随着学期即将结束，假期就要来了，是时候想想我们能看的圣诞电视节目了。以下是即将播出的内容。Once school has finished and the Christmas holidays begin, my favourite thing to do is get into my festive PJs, grab some top tier snacks and get cosy on the sofa to watch the best of Christmas TV and films.一到放假、圣诞假期开始，我最喜欢做的事就是换上节日睡衣，拿点顶级零食，窝在沙发上看最棒的圣诞节目和电影。Well do not fear, I have you covered. Let's start off with the Scarecrow's Wedding.别担心，我已经帮你准备好了。让我们从《稻草人的婚礼》开始。Harry loved Betty and Betty loved Harry. So Harry said, Betty, my beauty, let's marry. Many of you may have read the book when you were younger.哈里爱贝蒂，贝蒂也爱哈里。所以哈里说：“贝蒂，我的美人儿，我们结婚吧。”很多人小时候可能读过这本书。It's by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler, who also did The Gruffalo. It's going to be on the BBC on Christmas Day.它由朱莉娅·唐纳森和阿克塞尔·舍夫勒创作，他们也是《咕噜牛》的作者。它将在圣诞节当天于 BBC 播出。And also on BBC, do you recognise this yellow bear? Yes, correct, it's Pudsey.另外在 BBC，你认得这只黄色的小熊吗？没错，就是帕德西（Pudsey）。And in an exciting first, the Children in Need mascot will be in a special animation. Pudsey and the Thread of Hope will be on BBC on Christmas Eve. They should be.更令人兴奋的是，“儿童慈善募捐”活动的吉祥物将首次出现在特别动画中。《帕德西与希望之线》将在平安夜于 BBC 播出，绝对值得期待。I love Nina's fake fireplace. Have you been doing that at home? It's cool, isn't it?我喜欢妮娜的假壁炉。你家会这样布置吗？是不是很酷？Now, have you ever met someone and known instantly that you're going to be besties? Well, it looks like Nyle and Shanti got that feeling when they met for the first time at Chester Zoo.你有没有遇到一个人，一见面就知道你们会成为最好的朋友？好吧，看起来奈尔和珊缇在切斯特动物园第一次见面时就有这种感觉。They're both extremely rare Asiatic lions, and they've been brought together to help protect the species from extinction.它们都是极其珍稀的亚洲狮，被带到一起是为了帮助保护这个濒危物种。They love playing together in their new home, which is designed to look like the Indian forest where they usually live in the wild.它们喜欢在新家一起玩耍，而新家被设计得像它们在野外生活的印度森林一样。OK, that's all from me and the TV team for this weekend. Don't forget, there's loads more stories on our website, including plans to explore Mars, musical instruments made out of shells, and a way to send us a photo of your Christmas decorations. Take care.好了，这就是我和电视团队本周末的全部内容。别忘了，我们网站上还有更多故事，包括探索火星的计划、用贝壳制作的乐器，还有一种方式可以让你发送圣诞装饰的照片给我们。保重！

The Fact: Those are Figure Skating jumps. In competitive Ice Dancing, athletes are actually forbidden from performing these types of multi-rotation jumps. It is a common mix-up, but the two are separate disciplines! Surfing as a “One-Off” Showcase The Claim: Andrew thought Surfing was a one-time showcase sport for the Summer Olympics, similar to breakdancing. The Fact: Unlike breakdancing (which was only for Paris 2024), Surfing is a permanent Olympic sport. It debuted in Tokyo 2020, appeared in Paris 2024, and is already confirmed for the Los Angeles 2028 Games. The History of Ski Jumping The Claim: Luke suggested that ski jumping started at the Calgary 1988 Olympics with Eddie the Eagle. The Fact: Ski jumping is actually one of the original Winter Olympic sports. It has been in every Winter Games since the very first one in 1924 (Chamonix, France)—64 years before the Calgary Games. When the Games “Staggered” (The 2-Year Gap) The Claim: Andrew and Luke discussed the Games being “staggered” (Summer and Winter in different years) starting after 1988. The Fact: The change actually happened after 1992. Both the Summer and Winter Games were held in 1992 (Albertville and Barcelona). The first time the Winter Olympics were held in their own separate year was Lillehammer 1994. Canada's 2010 Gold Medal Record The Claim: Luke estimated that Canada won about 10 gold medals in Vancouver 2010. The Fact: Canada actually won 14 gold medals in 2010. At the time, this set a world record for the most gold medals ever won by a single country at any Winter Olympics.

"Head first" isn't a choice for Kendall Wesenberg. It's a job requirement. The skeleton slider has also turned it into her life mantra. And her grit to push through life and it's challenges is becoming legendary. The 2018 Olympian is working toward qualifying for her second Olympic Team. But she's already put in a gold medal worthy effort just trying to qualify for the 2026 Winter Games. Kendall grew up in Modesto, California, playing a variety of sports. She graduated from CU-Boulder and in 2010 watched the sport of skeleton for the first time during the Vancouver Olympics. She thought, "I wonder if I could do that?" She attended a sliding athletes combine and discovered she had an irrational need for speed and the innate talent to get good at one of the most niche Olympic sport. Skeleton athletes slide head first on their stomachs down the same icy track the bobsleds go down. Athletes use their shoulder sand knees to steer. Kendall explains, "There are anywhere from 12 to 20-something curves that you try and cover in about a minute, usually less." She's gone as fast at 86 miles per hour on a track. And, she competed in the 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympics. But she failed to make the 2022 Olympic Team. It turns out she had an undiagnosed spinal injury that had gone untreated for three years. It explained the immense pain she'd experienced training and competing. "The things that hold your spine in place snapped off of my back. And when it didn't get diagnosed, my vertebrae just slid out of my spinal column. So it was like fully pinching my nerves. I couldn't feel my legs," says Kendall. Her surgeon recommended a spinal fusion, a surgery with a very long recovery. Kendall jokes, "The playbook's pretty thin on a return to sport post spine fusion." But her doctor didn't close the door on a return to the sport she loved. Kendall spent three months in a back brace, seven months barely walking and couldn't start serious physical therapy until 10 months post surgery. 600 days later she returned to the ice describing her return to a track as "awesome." A year later, she's earned a spot on the U.S. World Cup Skeleton Team and she's actively trying to qualify for that second Olympic Team. On this Dying to Ask: The Road to Milan- Cortina: Advice for anyone trying to heal from a major injury How Kendall stays positive despite spending years healing her body Kendall's wife did some sliding...into her DMs. How being married has added balance to her athletic life

Gareth raises an interesting question about USADA's partnership with its athletes and perceived impartiality, and Ross reflects on some of Tygart's strong views.Sebastian Coe is trying to get Cross Country running into the Winter Olympics. It's not on snow or ice, so the Winter Games family are not all that enthusiastic. It would bring new nations to the medal table, but where should the Games draw the line at expansion?Then it's on to some news from the always controversial world of sex in sport. UK Athletics have encouraged all their female athletes to get the SRY screen done to ensure eligibility for women's sport. A good step, but one that comes at a financial cost to the athlete.it's a cost that many would consider worth incurring to protect women's sport, as demonstrated by this week's controversial victory, and then disqualification, of a male in the World's Strongest Woman event in Texas.

Watching biathlon on NBC during the 2018 Winter Olympics inspired New England native Jim Becker to participate in the sport. Today, Dr. Jim Becker is leading an innovative biomechanics research project with the U.S. Biathlon Team, which could make a big difference at the 2026 Winter Games in Italy. Heartbeat met with Becker to discuss his innovative Montana State University program and how it's helping American biathletes.Becker vividly remembers tuning into the Olympics on NBC in 2018. “It was just so cool to watch how things could change in an instant, right? One athlete is leading the race. They come in to shoot. They miss a target. All of a sudden, they're on the penalty loop. Somebody else goes out in the lead. Right? All the way up to the last shoot. “You didn't really know what was going to happen. It was just exciting the entire time. Also, as an athlete, you kind of really appreciated the fitness of these individuals and how hard they're working and how fast they're moving. And I've come to appreciate that even more, you know, really getting to know the sport.”Today, Becker works in kinesiology – the study of human movement. “From a biomechanical perspective, we're looking at what are the forces that generate that movement? What are the forces that are applied to your body during that movement?”The long and short of it is that Becker and his team study human movement to give athletes optimal tactics to capitalize on every single movement.Over the past few seasons, his Montana State University biomechanics research team has collected extensive data from video and other tools, analyzed it, and provided feedback to athletes and coaches.How can it work in practice? Becker discusses how video of athletes on a given course can provide data to offer tactical advice on how to ski that section faster or more efficiently, thereby conserving energy. And, yes, it really works!From Soldier Hollow to Lake Placid, Vuokatti to Antholz, Becker's student researchers are making a difference for U.S. biathletes. If you like to geek out a bit on the science of sport, this is your podcast.Join us for season six, episode three with Dr. Jim Becker to learn more about how the U.S. Biathlon Team is shaving seconds and shooting straighter thanks to innovative data analysis.

America is on the brink of historic change. In just five days, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth must deliver a classified report to the White House recommending whether President Trump should invoke the Insurrection Act of 1807—or go even further and declare martial law. The decision could suspend civil liberties, deploy military forces nationwide, and reshape the nation's legal structure. Meanwhile, President Trump's envoy says a permanent peace deal between Russia and Ukraine may be within reach. But tensions are rising elsewhere, as Russia and Belarus threaten NATO with “preemptive action,” China retaliates with rare earth embargoes, and the U.S. prepares for new military operations in the Middle East and Pacific. Plus—economic turmoil deepens as tariffs drive inflation and consumer shortages, and China accuses the NSA of cyberattacks during the Winter Games.Rick Wiles, Doc Burkhart.

That tradition is BLANK   Mike Mickens posted on Instagram today “We'll be back” with a fist and shamrock. Scale of 1-10 how big is this for Notre Dame?   Notre Dame men's basketball team lost another ACC game at home last night by 15 to Louisville. That is their 4th loss in the last five games and drops the Irish to 5-9 (13th) in the league and 11-14 overall. After the game he was asked about the last 5 games and this was his response.   The NHL just had their all star break where they had a 4 nations face off. USA, Canada, Finland and Sweden. 7 total games with 6 being round robin and the top two teams playing for the title. Do you buy or sell the format?

Above Photograph © Lou Jones Africa is the cradle of our civilization. Yet, most Westerners see this massive continent from a distance, and often through a scrim of largely negative headlines.  For more than a decade, Boston-based photographer Lou Jones has sought to challenge this misperception. In 2013, he launched an in-depth photographic documentation of individual countries across Africa under the title the panAFRICAproject.  Jones joins us on today's podcast to recap his efforts to date, which currently encompasses a third of Africa's 54 nations.  Listen in to learn how the project came to be—growing from a solo endeavor to travels with two assistants and enough photo and lighting gear to illuminate an airplane factory. We also discuss the delicate mix of diplomacy and six degrees of separation Jones employs when negotiating access to photograph—plus much, much more. “We're talking about contemporary Africa,” Jones points out. “Talking to people local—not academics in America—to tell us what's important to their culture, what's important to their country, what's important to their community, what's important to their company. Directly from people living there.” Guest: Lou Jones Episode Timeline: 2:58: Lou's earliest trips to Africa predating the panAFRICAproject, then traveling to Ghana to start the project. 7:26: The logistics of travel as a solo photographer and the six degrees of separation that informs his photographic process.  11:33: The substantial diplomacy required in meetings to negotiate access, while avoiding cliches and stereotypes. 19:29: The value of Lou's images as currency in gaining access to photograph business environments. 26:18: The evolution of Lou's photo crew, planning and packing for multiple purposes, plus the art of trading down with project costs. 32:10: The contents of Lou's gear bags, and how he packs everything from cameras to Speedlights to lighting accessories. 39:53: Photography as a bridge to cultural sensitivity and the relationship between a photographer and his or her subjects. 43:08: EPISODE BREAK 44:00: The evolving process of planning each trip to Africa and the constant work when boots are on the ground. 48:12: The complex algorithm Lou and his team use in planning which African country to document next. 53:56: Technological advances and cultural trends coming full circle in Africa, plus cell phone use and fin tech. 59:45: Two cultures side-by-side. Documenting the parallel worlds of contemporary society and indigenous traditions in daily life. 1:05:56: Use of photographs from the panAFRICAproject and maintaining connections with photographic subjects.  1:08:12: Kickstarter and crowdfunding campaigns to support panAFRICAproject travel and books. 1:16:03: Next steps in the panAFRICAproject and the project's impact on a local, grass roots level. Guest Bio: The eclectic career of Lou Jones has spanned every camera format, film type, artistic movement, and technological change, while simultaneously evolving from the commercial to the personal. Recognized by Nikon as a “Legend Behind the Lens” and honored as a Lowepro “Champion,” Jones has maintained a photography studio in Boston for more than 40 years, all while traveling to over 65 foreign countries on assignment. Jones works primarily with advertising agencies and design studios for corporate clients such as Nike, Mobil, and Federal Express, as well as influential publications like Time, Fortune, and National Geographic, among many others. The author of more than a dozen books, Jones is also an esteemed educator and has served as a board member for organizations such as ASMP National, the Photographic Resource Center and the Griffin Museum of Photography.  In tandem with his busy assignment career, Jones pursues long term projects on subjects as diverse as death row inmates, the Summer and Winter Games, and his most recent endeavor, The panAFRICAproject, a contemporary visual portrait of the entire continent, to establish an archive representing its 54 individual countries devoid of the preconceived, western notions of distress.
