    Today we hear the Combat Story of Jake Wood, a former University of Wisconsin football player who enlisted in the Marine Corps and fought in both Iraq and Afghanistan as a Marine Rifleman and Sniper. One of the key moments that led him to the Marine Corps was the death of Pat Tillman, the legendary NFL Safety who walked away from the League and joined the Army after 9/11, eventually being killed while serving as a Ranger in Afghanistan.

    Jake found himself leading Marines at the very front end of the “Surge” in Iraq and the bloodiest year of the wars, stepping into a kinetic environment only weeks after arriving in the theater. He was then in Helmand Province in Afghanistan as a sniper.

    Only two months after leaving the Marine Corps, Jake went on to found the humanitarian support organization Team Rubicon after hastily organizing what he describes as a “Motley Crew” of veterans and doctors to help the people of Haiti after the devastating 2010 earthquake. He recently created another charitable giving business called Groundswell which seeks to democratize philanthropic giving.

    In 2018, Jake was awarded the Pat Tillman ESPY for service (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d7Xef8StXi8), bringing his story full circle from Tillman’s death that propelled Jake into this life of service. I hope you enjoy this unique and insightful interview with someone who played football at the highest level and then selflessly decided to put on a different uniform to help others as much as I did.

    January 12, 2010. A 7.0 magnitude earthquake shakes Port-au-Prince. In moments, hundreds of thousands were injured, infrastructure and buildings were destroyed, and countless were made homeless. In the days following, many traditional aid organizations were slow to establish relief efforts, citing dangerous and unstable working conditions. Troubled by the scenes in Port-au-Prince and the lack of proper aid, two Marines, Jake Wood and William McNulty, decided to act. Gathering supplies and volunteers, the small group of veterans, first responders, and medical professionals deployed to Haiti in the days following the earthquake.

    Planning for Retirement, What is Your Next Step?
    So you put in your 30 years, it is time to hang up the boots and put away the uniform. What Next? I have advised some of the people that I am mentoring to have a plan for their future after public service, or even your next steps after your time in the private sector. As emergency managers, we need to lean forward to take care of ourselves.

    MANISH DAYAL: The Journey Back to Artistry (There's Only Your Way)

    MANISH DAYAL: The Journey Back to Artistry (There's Only Your Way)

    Lao-tzu said, “the journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.” Our guest for this episode is a dreamer who, as a child, couldn’t stop thinking about being in the film business. Today, as an actor, director, and producer Manish Dayal shares what he’s learned about navigating imposter syndrome and how he finds balance through diversifying his focus.

    His career has led him to work on incredible shows such as 90210, RUBICON, HALT AND CATCH FIRE, and MARVEL’S AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D. He starred opposite Helen Mirren in THE HUNDRED-FOOT JOURNEY, a film produced by Steven Spielberg and Oprah Winfrey. In his directorial debut, FIFTEEN YEARS LATER, he shares the screen with Matt McGorry and Rachel Brosnahan. And currently, Manish can be seen reprising his role as ‘Dr. Devon Pravesh’ on 4th season of Fox’s THE RESIDENT.

    We delve into set life during a pandemic and how that affects Manish’s heightened sense of… Well, just listen and you’ll find out! If you need some inspiration on finding your way back into artistry you’ve come to the right place. Sometimes all you need is a reminder that spring comes after winter. Or maybe you need the memory of hot, HOT, butter.

    Sarah Rey - Les larmes de Rome. Le pouvoir de pleurer dans l’Antiquité

    Sarah Rey - Les larmes de Rome. Le pouvoir de pleurer dans l’Antiquité
    Sarah Rey, Les larmes de Rome. Le pouvoir de pleurer dans l’Antiquité (Anamosa), le 5 mars 2020 à la Libreria Stendhal.

    Des chevaux pleurent sur les rives du Rubicon. Ils errent le long du fleuve. Le meurtre de César est annoncé. Ce prodige rapporté par Suétone le suggère : les larmes coulent en abondance chez les Romains. Elles sont même un adjuvant incontournable du politique, l’arme privilégiée des orateurs et le moyen de se distinguer du vulgaire. Les empereurs, le peuple, les sénateurs, les soldats pleurent. Débats publics, procès ou ambassades, tout est prétexte aux déversements d’émotions. Souvent dépeints en guerriers impitoyables, les Romains sont trop rarement montrés dans leurs moments de fragilité ou d’égarement. Ils construisent des routes, des ponts et des villes, bâtissent un empire, mais ne s’abaissent pas à pleurer, pense-t-on. Leur mauvaise réputation de rudesse a jusque-là découragé toute enquête générale sur leurs larmes, là où les lamentations des héros grecs ont déjà fait couler beaucoup d’encre.
    Dans cette histoire inversée de la force romaine, il faut accepter de ne pas s’y reconnaître, de perdre pied. Le parcours que propose ce livre est ainsi celui d’un paradoxe : saisir l’étrangeté de ces larmes d’hier si semblables aux nôtres, c’est aussi comprendre qu’elles n’ont rien de celles d’aujourd’hui.

    Sarah Rey est maître de conférences en histoire ancienne à l’université de Valenciennes. Plusieurs de ses travaux sont consacrés à l’historiographie, ancienne et moderne. Elle s’intéresse aussi à l’histoire sociale et religieuse de la Rome antique.
