    Amphitheater of Durrës
    The largest Roman amphitheater in the Balkans once held over 20,000 people, but managed to lay hidden for hundreds of years.

    Durrës Sphinx
    Also called the Urban Cape, this modern architectural object serves as the apex of Durrës’ land and seascapes. It connects the promenade and square with the Adriatic sea in a seamless line of white stone and cascading stairs, all made from local stones and materials.

    Gladiatoren im alten Rom vor 1800 Jahren: So lebten und überlebten die antiken Kämpfer

    Gladiatoren im alten Rom vor 1800 Jahren: So lebten und überlebten die antiken Kämpfer
    Gladiatoren waren einstmals die Stars der Arena - vergleichbar mit heutigen Fußballstars wie Messi oder Ronaldo. Ihre Kampfkunst begeisterte die Römer vor 1800 Jahren - auch im antiken Augusta Treverorum, dem heutigen Trier. Doch wer riskierte damals sein Leben in diesen Kämpfen? Und was wissen wir heute über die antiken Brot und Spiele? Das wissen zwei Experten der Gladiatorenschule Trier, die im Trierer Amphitheater noch heute die antike Kampfkunst pflegen - wenn auch deutlich weniger blutrünstig als zu Zeiten der Römer.

    Episode 252- Now How Much Would You Pay?

    Episode 252- Now How Much Would You Pay?

    www.commsolutionsmn.com-  Why does every city seem to be in competition for the latest and the greatest amenities? City councils seem to clamor for pools, golf courses, walking trails, community centers, and hockey rinks. Do they really help bring people to your city? Residents shell out millions of dollars and often their cities go into major debt to get the latest and greatest attractions for their current and prospective residents.

    Do people really move to a city because of a community center, or is it an excuse not to take care of larger problems like lousy schools, increased crime rates, or high taxes? Golden Valley payed $18 million for a new community center, and touted that they were cutting costs because they wanted to spend twice as much. This is how government works, folks. Carlsbad, CA built a $70 million golf course, where most municipal golf courses cost in between $10-$25 million.

    Also, we try to guess whether there are any unbreakable records anymore. How long will they last? No, we're not talking about Nancy Pelosi's consecutive congress terms.

    Alte Steine in Griechenland | der Antike auf der Spur

    Alte Steine in Griechenland | der Antike auf der Spur

    Heute dreht sich in der neuen Podcastepisode alles um die Antike in Griechenland. Ich erzähle von meinen Ausflügen zu den verschiedenen antiken Stätten. Ich sage dazu auch gerne etwas scherzhaft "alte Steine gucken".

    Im Mittelpunkt steht dabei meine Story zum Aufstieg in der Festungsanlage von Akrokorinth. Wie es mir dabei erging, erfährst du hier. Viel Spaß beim Hören.

    Hier findest du Informationen zu den genannten antiken Stätten:

    Katie Root

    Katie Root

    Today’s adventure takes us to St. Augustine, Florida as Dave & Paul talk with Katie Root, Marketing Manager for St. Augustine Amphitheatre & Ponte Vedra Concert Hall. Katie gives us insight into what it’s been like being one of the first outdoor amphitheatres to reopen, and using their venue upgrades (new lockable seats, infrared thermal temperature scans and more) to create a safe space for live music to return. They discuss the video and marketing campaign they put together to inform and educate guests on the protocols and importance of following them. She also talks about her history in the industry, how events in her life lead to shifts in her priorities, and how change shouldn’t be as intimidating as we build it up to be.

    S02 E02 - Before it was Googleville

    S02 E02 - Before it was Googleville

    a.k.a. The twisted history of this corner. 

    Before it was Silicon Valley, this area was known as the Valley of Heart's Delight. The farms eventually gave way to nondescript office parks. And on this corner, the office park will soon be replaced by Google's answer to Apple's spaceship headquarters. In this episode, you'll hear all about the history of this intersection from the days of the California Gold Rush to the arrival of Google. You'll tour a 150-year-old mansion (Google bike shop now occupies the spot), you'll meet a woman who grew up here in the '50s and '60s, and you'll hear from the city managers and planners who reimagined it and eventually struck a town-altering deal with Google. This may be your last chance to connect with the past...before it's all but erased.
