On March 31, 1975, the UCLA Bruins beat the Kentucky Wildcats 92-85 for the 10th and final championship under the legendary Wizard of Westwood, John Wooden. The greatest collegiate coach in U.S. history retired after his team's 7-point win at the Sports Arena in San Diego. UCLA was the best in college basketball in 1964, 1965, 1967, 1968, 1969, 1970, 1971, 1972, 1973 & 1975. An astonishing 10 titles in 12 years! Nothing in major collegiate sports compares to the dominance of what Wooden accomplished in his final dozen years in Westwood. A week later, Steve Garvey was on the April 7, 1975 issue of SI, but the story that captivated the sports world was the final game of Wooden's time at UCLA. The end of an era that will never be replicated… and he went out a champion. Now in retirement at the age of 64, Wooden retreated to his home and continued to be a mentor to the many players who played for him at UCLA, notably, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Bill Walton, Lucius Allen, Larry Farmer and countless others. His beloved wife Nell passed in 1985 and Coach fell into a deep funk. His children were deeply worried about the mental anguish the widowed Wooden was enduring with the passing of his wife after 53 years of marriage. Gradually he came out of it with the help of his family, friends, and players who visited with him regularly. One of those who saw Coach Wooden on a regular basis for home visits was his podiatrist, Dr. Michael Levi. Michael would come often to check on the now 80+ year old Coach Wooden and the two soon became more than just a doctor-patient relationship. They would often have breakfast together and talk about family, life, baseball, God, books and any other topic that Wooden found interesting… which was everything. Michael would return home and write down everything that had taken place upon his visit with Coach… and in 2016, 6 years after Coach Wooden was laid to rest at the age of 99, Levi published a book with the help of former L.A. times writer Larry Stewart called, “Wednesdays with Wooden.” Levi talks about how he went to a camp as a 6-year old and saw Wooden for the first time and how is father idolized the legendary Bruins coach. He tells us on the Past Our Prime podcast how he and Wooden became friends over their time together and how he was able to give his father the best birthday gift ever… lunch with Coach Wooden. Levi tells us about the depression that felled the Coach after the death of Nell and what brought him out of it and how the phone never stopped ringing at Coach Wooden's house with players calling to check up on him constantly throughout the day…. Every day… It's an intimate and personal look at the most successful college coach in NCAA history from a man who checked on Wooden's feet, and ended up getting a piece of his heart.

Send us a textDuke vs Houston and Florida vs Auburn - this Final Four may be chalk with all top seeds, but our basketball roundtable delivers bold predictions and passionate debates about who's cutting down the nets in San Antonio.Our panel of coaches, broadcasters and basketball lifers tackle the burning questions: Is Duke's Cooper Flagg truly the greatest freshman in college basketball history? Does Houston's top-ranked defense give them the edge over Duke's offensive firepower? Which coach among the Final Four has the advantage? And who ultimately wins it all?The conversation takes a fascinating detour when Coach Mike Worrell shares the remarkable story of coaching Jacob Tucker, the 5'10" Division III player who shocked the basketball world by winning the 2011 NCAA Slam Dunk Championship. From viral YouTube sensation to meeting NBA legends and being mobbed for autographs, it's a reminder of how March Madness creates unforgettable moments.The group also examines how dramatically college basketball has changed in the NIL era. With players and coaches constantly moving between programs, could any modern coach ever reach the legendary status of figures like Wooden, Knight or Coach K? As one panelist puts it bluntly: "There's no loyalty anymore on any level - players, coaches, administrators."Whether you're filling out your bracket or just love college hoops, this basketball conversation is packed with insights, stories and predictions from those who've lived the game at every level.

The Peasant Soldier: More Than Just a FarmerThe average Anglo-Saxon peasant soldier was not a full time warrior but a member of the Fyrd—a militia of free men called upon in times of war. This system allowed the king or local lords to summon able-bodied men from the countryside to bolster the ranks of professional warriors, known as thegns and housecarls. Though not career fighters, these men were not entirely unfamiliar with combat.The Fyrd was composed primarily of ceorls—free peasants who owed military service to their local lord or king. Each ceorl was required to provide his own weapons and equipment, meaning the quality of arms and armor varied significantly. Some wealthier peasants might have chainmail, but most went into battle with little more than a sturdy tunic, a wooden shield, and a spear.Weaponry: Fighting with What They HadUnlike the well-equipped housecarls, peasant soldiers in the Fyrd carried weapons they could afford or were provided by their lords. The typical armaments included:Spears – The most common weapon, cheap to produce and easy to use. It allowed a peasant to keep enemies at a distance and was vital in shield-wall formations.Seaxes (short swords or long knives) – These were sidearms, useful in close combat when formations broke apart.Wooden shields – Often round, reinforced with a metal boss at the center. A critical piece of equipment, both for protection and for forming the defensive shield wall.Axes and agricultural tools – Some wielded heavier axes, while others repurposed farming tools like sickles or pitchforks in desperate times.Projectile weapons – Though longbows were not yet prominent in England, slings and throwing axes were sometimes used, though these were not the primary weapons of the Fyrd.The Shield Wall: A Peasant's Best DefenseOne of the most important formations in Anglo-Saxon warfare was the shield wall. The peasant soldiers of the Fyrd were crucial in its formation, standing shoulder to shoulder with shields locked tightly together to create an almost impenetrable barrier. Behind this wall, spearmen could thrust forward, making it difficult for enemy forces to break through.

Once on the brink of extinction, Varanasi's ancient wooden toy industry has made a spectacular comeback, thanks to the relentless efforts of artisans like Padma Shri awardee Godavari Singh, who passed away earlier this month. His exquisite handcrafted toys not only preserved a centuries-old tradition but also gained national recognition, featuring in the New Delhi tableau during the Republic Day celebrations, where he was honoured for his contributions. In this episode of Padma Pride, we explore how Singh, along with new-age entrepreneurs, steered this centuries-old craft into a flourishing industry.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for March 13, 2025 is: curfew KER-fyoo noun Curfew refers to a law or order that requires people to be indoors after a certain time at night, as well as to the period of time when such an order or law is in effect. Chiefly in the United States, curfew is also used to refer to the time set by a parent or caregiver at which a child has to be back home after going out. // No one is allowed on the streets during the curfew. // Lana has a 10 o'clock curfew, so we need to bring her home right after the movie. See the entry > Examples: “[Lew] Alcindor narrowed his college choice to Michigan, Columbia, St. John's, and UCLA. He liked Columbia as the chance to attend school walking distance to Harlem and a subway ride to the jazz clubs he had to leave early as a high schooler to make curfew.” — Scott Howard-Cooper, Kingdom on Fire: Kareem, Wooden, Walton, and the Turbulent Days of the UCLA Basketball Dynasty, 2024 Did you know? Curfews set by parents (and kept or broken by their offspring) do not echo the origins of the word curfew in any discernable way—if they did, they'd need to at least hint at the sound of a bell. When curfew was first used in the 14th century, it referred to the sounding of a bell at evening to alert people that they should cover their hearth fires for the night—a necessary warning, as many European houses in the Middle Ages were close enough to each other that fires could spread easily from one to the next. The word came to English from Anglo-French, in which the signal was called coverfeu, a compound of covrir, meaning “to cover,” and feu, “fire.” Even when hearth fires were no longer regulated, many towns had other rules that called for ringing an evening bell, including one that required people to be off the streets by a given time, a development that granted curfew permission to go out and about with a broader meaning.
Today on the show we are joined by Mike Snee of the Minnesota Wild. Mike is the VP of the Minnesota Wild Foundation and is heading up a cool new initiative called Skate It Forward.

Toby leads them to a jetty on the Thames where the trail fades away, leading the men to conclude that the villains escaped by boat. At that instant, the door to the boat rental home opens and a little boy runs out, followed by his mother. Holmes stops the child before he can run off, and asks the woman a few questions about renting a steam boat. The lady informs him that her husband has gone off in it, and she is a little worried, as he normally would have taken a different ship. She also lets out that he went off with a Wooden-legged man... Holmes asks a few more questions about this Wooden-legged man, and the boat they left in. As they leave, Holmes send a telegram to "The Baker Street Irregulars," the group of street rats that he employs to gather information. At home, they eat breakfast and read through the newspaper, where they find an article, praising the detective work of Athelney Jones. When the group of street rats arrive, Holmes tells them that they need to go down the river, looking for a steam ship called the "Aurora," and when they find it, they should come to him. Following this, Holmes plays Watson to sleep on his Violin.

Ten years in the business and the custom furniture maker Wooden Street has left its older peers far behind. If you ask the company's founder and chief executive Lokendra Singh Ranawat, he will tell you that the Covid pandemic was when the company's fortunes changed. Within two years of the pandemic, the company's top line nearly quadrupled to Rs 130 crore. It also claims to have closed the 2024 financial year with a revenue of Rs 340 crore. The company has also managed to attract global investors, including the likes of Premji Invest. In December 2024, Wooden Street raised a little over Rs 350 crore in a series C round – which happens to be one of the largest investments into India's home and furniture segment in a long time. The founder says, around this time, everyone became a Pinterest-inspired interior designer. Ranawat noticed people were constantly thinking of new ways to spruce up and upgrade different parts of their homes. And it's that newfound obsession with home improvement that proved to be the wind beneath Wooden Street's wings. And what set Wooden Street apart from its peers was its customisation strategy that it calls the ‘Goldilocks zone'. Tune in.Daybreak is now on WhatsApp at +918971108379.

Microcosmos Records is pleased to announce Jungle Tales, a compilation album by DJ Synergia. The luminous elfish image of Natalia Arustamova, a.k.a. DJ Synergia (St. Petersburg, Russia), is well known by the audience of electronic music festivals with her numerous performances. Her DJ sets are dazzling and groovy, and the flow of her performance is smooth and vibrant. Jungle Tales is a compilation album of tracks by electronic artists of psy-bass, breaks, dark chill, and organic house. Its tracks are masterfully selected with the idea of combining nativity and novelty through beautifully blended ethnic electronica. It seems just like a musical game, in which realities and times are intermingled by a roll of the dice, the game that allows something wild and ancient to suddenly burst into everyday life, the act that becomes a trigger for the players to reconsider their perception of the reality. Turn on Jungle Tales by DJ Synergia, dive into a smooth music journey full of genre twists, let the mysterious force take you into the fantasy worlds of "Jungle Tales", and go on a trip with Microcosmos Records!

The final All-American to play for UCLA's John Wooden was Dave Meyers and on February 17, 1975, Meyers was on the cover of Sports Illustrated as the leading man in the final championship run for the Wizard of Westwood. A bruising big man, Meyers was the center on a team that wasn't supposed to make another run at a title. The dynasty was ended by North Carolina State the year prior... right? Not so fast. Wooden had one more run in him led by a group of guys who put the team first and checked their egos at the door. Along with Meyers was a tough shooting guard from Indiana by the name of Pete Trgovich who was one of four Bruins to average in double figures that year. After coming up short in the finals a year earlier, Trgovich and his teammates weren't about to let this final opportunity slip away. A magical run was ahead of them that saw them fight and claw and take home the 10th National Championship in 12 years for Wooden and his Bruins and this one was as special as any of them... maybe more so. Trgovich tells us how he motivated the team when they were down to Michigan in the first round of the tournament... how he felt for a kid who missed a big free throw for Louisville that allowed UCLA to win their semi-final matchup. And Trgovich gives a raw and honest take on his relationship with his coach. It wasn't what you would think... and the conversation the two had 20 years after Pete played for Wooden that the kid from Indiana has never forgotten. It's a different look into the last year of Wooden's magical run at UCLA led by a different guy who calls 'em as he sees 'em... then and now. Honest and insightful, Pete Trgovich leaves it all on the line... just like he did when he was lacing it up at Pauley Pavilion 50 years ago. Listen and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.

On this week's episode, Alex dives into Japan's Lignosat mission from JAXA! LignoSat is a wooden CubeSat launched from the International Space Station on December 13, 2024. LignoSat aims to test wood as a sustainable, thermally insulating alternative to traditional space materials like aluminum and titanium. Previous research by Kyoto University showed wood's resilience to space conditions over 10 months. The mission could reduce orbital debris and environmental impacts of re-entry. We also recognize the major job changes in the space industry since the start of the year and invite space professionals to network here on Today In Space!
