Whimsical Octopus Teapot Parade

In this episode of Newsbang, the landscape is rife with chaos and humor as the host delves into the tumultuous events of the day while maintaining a satire-heavy tone. The program opens with a vivid portrayal of Timur, also known as Tim the Terrible Tourist, who has invaded Georgia with his army. His abrupt arrival in Tbilisi creates havoc, leading to a dip in the local real estate market and a cultural upheaval marked by his demands for conversion to Islam or risk becoming "kebab." The local populace, represented humorously through a merchant’s bewildered recollections, captures the panic and absurdity of the siege, culminating in Medieval Yelp reviews that mock Timur's disastrous PR amid excessive pillaging. Moving on to the music industry, the show tackles the scandal surrounding DJ Alan Freed, dismissed from WABC Radio for accepting bribes in exchange for airtime. The segment paints a picture of a musical catastrophe for Freed’s fans and underscores the chaotic nature of the music business at the time, veering into the absurd as Freed exits with his vinyls, lamenting the state of rock and roll. Historical recollections transport the audience to several critical moments across different centuries. One notable segment highlights a group of settlers in 1620 who stumble unwittingly into the concept of democracy through the Mayflower Compact, which they sign amidst a context of illness and confusion. This historical mishap is depicted through the bewildered perspective of their witnesses, showcasing a comedic yet poignant take on early governance as they trade rum rations for self-governance. As the broadcast shifts to a weather report filled with dry humor, the audience learns about bleak conditions across the UK, with warnings about heavy rains and chilling temperatures. The segment features playful but militant meteorological metaphors and reflects on the grim realities faced by citizens, coated in comedic exaggeration. Transitioning into the military history of Port Arthur in 1894, the war correspondent Brian Bastable provides a satirical, yet stark, commentary on Japanese forces' excessive enthusiasm for urban redevelopment through warfare. The narrative cleverly juxtaposes historical seriousness with wartime absurdity, painting a vivid picture of destruction while maintaining a lighthearted tone, even amidst the chaos. The dark history of the Birmingham pub bombings in 1974 brings gravity back to the conversation. The story articulates the brutal reality of the IRA's violence while also exposing the catastrophic failings of the British justice system in dealing with the aftermath. Ken Shit’s impassioned account serves as a damning indictment of institutional corruption and the devastating toll it took on innocent lives, striking a balance between outrage and editorialized humor. Another visit to the music scene in 1959 reveals the consequences of the payola scandal, where Freed’s legacy falters under a weight of corporate greed. Melody Wintergreen’s on-the-ground coverage highlights the uproar among Freed’s fans as they protest his unfair treatment, contrasting the idealistic nature of rock and roll with the reality of industry corruption. A jubilant portrayal of the new Verrazano Narrows Bridge connects Staten Island to Brooklyn, marking a point of infrastructural significance as drivers and pedestrians react to their newly expanded urban landscape. Polly Beep’s report humorously captures the absurdity of local attitudes towards the bridge while reflecting on daily traffic woes synonymous with New York City. The episode culminates with an educational segment on the history of sound recording, establishing a playful narrative about the uncredited contributions of Theodore Eddstone. Calamity Prenderville’s exposé underlines the quirky origins of recording technology, sending a back-to-basics reminder that innovation can often sprout from the unlikeliest of beginnings. The broadcast closes with

Quirky Octopus Tea Party

The latest episode of the news show delves into a whirlwind of historical and contemporary events, presented through a humorous and satirical lens. The segment kicks off with a cheeky reference to Nazi war criminals facing justice at the Nuremberg trials, where 24 prominent leaders were found guilty of heinous crimes. The narrative highlights the absurdity of some of the defendants' defenses, particularly Hermann Göring's dramatic attempt to evade sentencing by swallowing cyanide, and Albert Speer's attempts at mitigation through claims of mere "interior decorating." The show's correspondent humorously points out that despite the trials marking a significant legal milestone in international law, they were undermined by technicalities regarding courtroom decorum and the limitations of dramatic pause lengths. Critics are noted to question the real value of such proceedings, while the ultimate takeaway from the trials is summarized in a comically simplistic maxim: don’t commit genocide. The episode then transitions to a lighthearted recounting of British Admiral Edward Vernon's improbable victory over the Spanish at Portobello in 1739, humorously juxtaposing military prowess with children's playfulness by mentioning that Vernon utilized a rubber duck in his naval assault. The report recalls how Vernon, dressed flamboyantly, reportedly bombarded a Spanish fortress while singing "Rule Britannia" through a megaphone, marking a victory celebrated with a ludicrous giant ear trophy made from melted Spanish gold. The absurdity continues as the Spanish garrison allegedly surrendered under the threat of enduring Vernon's exhaustive repertoire of sea shanties. In a dramatic shift, the show covers chaotic events in Mecca where rioting militants took control of the Grand Mosque, with their leader laying claim to the title of 'Mahdi' after a humorous interpretation of ‘religious musical chairs’. The correspondent cleverly portrays Saudi authorities’ flustered response as they call in French special forces equipped with an unusual arsenal of baguettes filled with explosives, eventually ending the siege with a barrage of annoying French tunes. The weather update takes a whimsical turn, with vivid metaphors painting a humorous picture of the impending cold temperatures and slushy conditions across various regions of the UK. The forecast, delivered with comic flair, invites listeners to prepare for plummeting temperatures while showcasing the meteorologist's colorful metaphors. Moving forward, the news show covers a historical account from 1945 about the initial international efforts to address war crimes. Correspondents provide sharp commentary on the court proceedings, highlighting the new legal categories introduced to address the atrocities faced during World War II, while intertwining dark humor about the defendants' conditions in a courtroom setting. The narrative then delves into the breaking news of the Lusaka Protocol in 1994, a peace agreement aiming to quell decades of conflict in Angola. The absurdities of a peace deal stained with coffee provide comedic commentary on the fragile nature of peace processes amidst ongoing tensions. Transitioning to a more modern event from 1969, the show humorously recounts Native American activists' audacious takeover of Alcatraz Island, transforming the infamous prison into a 'university of understanding.' The light-hearted segment on the occupation not only highlights the activists’ struggle for recognition but brings attention to the poignant complexities stemming from their efforts. In an uproariously nostalgic recount from 1902, the origins of the Tour de France are humorously reimagined as a marketing ploy born from fierce competition between rival newspapers, illustrating how even the most storied events can have surprisingly comical origins. The segment wraps up with a whimsical dive into the royal wedding of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip in 1947, complete with tal

The News-Show features a whimsical and satirical take on various major historical and cultural events, blending absurdity with fact to create an entertaining narrative. The episode begins with a bizarre maritime incident off the coast of Western Australia, where a German ship disguised as a Dutch merchant vessel lures the HMS Sydney into a fierce naval altercation. This "catfishing" maneuver leads to a catastrophic explosion and the sinking of both ships. Local fisherman Bruce Prawn-Johnson witnesses the drama unfold, providing comedic commentary on the chaos, which he likens to a “jacuzzi of death.” Ultimately, while the German crew survives, the Australian sailors tragically perish, marking this encounter as one of the most ill-fated maritime duels in history. Transitioning to the sporting world, the show shifts focus to an unforgettable moment in football: Brazilian icon Pele scoring his 1,000th goal at the Maracanà Stadium in 1969. The event ignites a frenzy among 80,000 spectators, causing outright pandemonium. Witnesses report moments of fan hysteria, including spontaneous combustions of excitement, while the powerful penalty kick supposedly creates a brief tear in the space-time continuum. The moment is deemed a matter of national security by the Brazilian government, which struggles to control the fervor surrounding it, underscoring the cultural significance of athletic achievement in Brazil. The narrative then delves into the explosive reception of Latin heartthrob Luis Miguel's romance album released in 1991, which sends middle-aged women into a frenzy. Labelled a "lethal weapon of mass seduction," the album's impact on listeners prompts health warnings of spontaneous combustion from prolonged exposure. This comedic hyperbole evokes nostalgia while highlighting the cultural phenomenon of slow, romantic ballads influencing Latin music. The segment humorously describes how the recording process resulted in a literal mess from all the “puddles of romance,” leading the authorities to consider classifying it as a controlled substance. The show features an engaging weather report that humorously exaggerates typical November weather conditions, detailing a UK forecast that is drearily cold and damp, thereby setting a comedic tone for the subsequent segments. In a further dive into the past, the program then covers the absurdity of President Reagan's summit with Soviet leader Gorbachev in 1985, where candy is exchanged with comical interactions that mimic a tense first date between the two leaders. Political correspondent Hardeman Pesto provides comic relief by detailing the trivial matters discussed among global leaders while emphasizing the lighter, humorous aspects of Cold War politics. In a historical retrospective, the episode also revisits the Mayflower's inaugural journey in 1620, humorously chronicling the ship's misguided journey to Cape Cod instead of Virginia. This comedic recounting of the pilgrims’ reactions to their unexpected landing serves to illustrate the unintentional founding of America, concluding with reflections on their struggle for survival and the drafting of the Mayflower Compact as they set about establishing a new society. Lastly, Penelope Windchime's segment on environmental disasters highlights the tragic sinking of the Prestige oil tanker in 2002, depicting the calamity's impact on marine life and the ensuing chaos of blame among responsible parties. The dispatch blends urgency with levity in addressing the seriousness of environmental issues while also commenting on corporate negligence. Wrapping up the evening, the show teases upcoming news items with a flourish of humor, promising more absurd yet insightful commentary on cultural and historical events. The entire broadcast maintains a fast-paced rhythm punctuated by humor, providing a unique blend of entertainment while shedding light on significant occurrences woven through the fabric of history. The show concludes wit

The Whimsical Turnip Parade

The News Show dives into a series of absurd yet captivating headlines designed to highlight the bizarre intersection of history and satire. Starting with a humorous report from the Bay of Bengal, the narrative describes an incident where French frigates captured British merchant vessels in what is described as the most polite act of piracy in history. The French, decked with baguettes and cheese, engaged the British ships while playing accordion music, leading to laughter among viewers as the British crew resorted to throwing tea crates and penning sharp letters in response to their attacking counterparts. The East India Company's comical retribution involved a new policy that mandates etiquette lessons and the installation of crumpet dispensers on merchant ships. The chaos escalates with a satire-laden exposé of Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev’s antics amidst diplomatic tensions. Khrushchev makes an exaggerated and absurd threat to attend the funerals of Western diplomats, invoking panic among staff members, many of whom have not even passed away yet. The environment at the embassy, described chillingly and humorously, showcases Khrushchev's propensity for over-the-top gestures and his odd way of measuring coffin dimensions, hinting at the absurdity of Cold War diplomacy. Moving to the Balkans, the report describes the woeful incompetence of the Yugoslav People's Army as they allegedly failed to properly lay siege to the city of Vukovar. After 87 days marked by chaos and ineptitude, the army finally marched into the city without successfully engaging in any organized bombardment. The satirical commentary reflects on the lack of military decorum, with military experts condemning the operations for not abiding by basic siege etiquette, calling for mandatory workshops to avoid such blunders in the future. Next, the weather segment humorously outlines the impending atmospheric shifts across the United Kingdom, ranging from drizzle to sharper winds, painting a vivid, chaotic picture of the unpredictable British climate. Weather forecasts, filled with whimsical metaphors and exaggerated imagery, further emphasize the absurdity of day-to-day life amidst such serious global events. As the show shifts its focus back to the deteriorating situation in Vukovar, reports indicate grim developments in the ongoing siege, with casualties rising and the city crumbling under relentless bombardment. War correspondent Brian Bastable offers a raw and darkly humorous account from the frontline, capturing the tragedies unfolding around him. His sardonic observations expose the grim reality faced by combatants and citizens alike, alongside a desperate struggle for survival amidst ruin. In a shocking transition, the show tackles the disastrous events surrounding the People's Temple led by Jim Jones in Guyana, introducing the listener to the catastrophic punch party that resulted in over 900 deaths. The investigation into this malevolent event paints a graphic picture of a mass suicide driven by a paranoid leader’s delusions of control. Ken Schitt’s visceral and unflinching report captures the horror of the scene and the sheer magnitude of the tragedy, illustrating the grotesque reality faced by those caught in this cult's demise. Back to historical events from 1956, a retrospective shines a light on Khrushchev's infamous "We Will Bury You" speech, initially perceived through the lens of mistranslation. This historical episode serves as a reminder of how diplomatic relations can turn into comedic disasters. Correspondent Hardiman Pesto highlights the chaotic nature of the event as diplomats hastily exit while Khrushchev continues delivering his rebuke, inadvertently solidifying his infamous legacy. The program also updates listeners on Mark Twain’s revolutionary contributions to American literature with his comedic short story about a jumping frog, marking a turning point that brought humor into America’s literary scene.

Gigantic Cactus

The News-Show delves into a wide range of eclectic and humorous topics, offering a satirical take on both historical events and contemporary issues. The narrative kicks off with an infamous television blunder that occurred on November 17, 1968, when NBC executives made the controversial decision to cut away from a critical NFL game between the Raiders and Jets to air the children's classic *Heidi*. This decision enraged millions of loyal sports fans who witnessed the abrupt switch, leading to a flurry of outrage that paralyzed NBC’s switchboard. The segment explores the fallout from this “Heidi” incident, capturing the emotions of dismayed viewers and the chaotic atmosphere that ensued. The coverage of this mishap is complemented by tongue-in-cheek commentary that likens it to a historic crime against humanity, emphasizing the absurdity of the situation. Transitioning through time, the show humorously recounts the declassified “Operation Arctic Fox,” a bizarre World War II plot conceived by Nazi Germany to kidnap Santa Claus under the misguided belief that the jolly figure was a communist sympathizer. The narrative depicts the hilariously futile attempts of Nazi soldiers, armed and confused, invading Finnish homes, resulting in their icy demise during the “Battle of the Bloody Snowman.” The absurdity of the operation is further magnified through the whimsical lens of the Finnish resistance disguising themselves as snowmen. This segment serves not only as a comedic highlight but also as a critique of the irrationality that can permeate wartime decision-making. Shifting gears abruptly, the show dives into the Mueller climactic research unit at the University of East Anglia, where it unearthed a vast conspiracy that purportedly involved climate scientists manipulating global weather data. The leaked emails reveal a mix of absurdity and incompetence, surrounding claims of using polar bears as weapons and creating sentient snowstorms. The humor in this segment lies in the exaggerated secrecy and the quirky intentions of the scientists, illustrating the fine line between genuine inquiry and ludicrous exaggeration in scientific discourse. The satire escalates with the chaotic weather forecast delivered by the fictional character, Shakanaka Giles, whose colorful descriptions of disparate weather patterns provide comic relief amid the seriousness of the preceding topics. The show continues with an engaging report from the frontlines of historical military conflicts, particularly focusing on the Australian forces in New Guinea during World War II. The correspondent's over-the-top commentary underscores both the tenacity of soldiers in battle and the absurd reality of the jungle warfare. This segment creates a vivid and hyperbolic scene, allowing listeners to visualize the intensity of the combat while provoking laughter at the unexpected details, such as the creative camouflage of Japanese forces. In a jarring yet comedic shift, the program recounts the capture of America’s first documented serial killer, H.H. Holmes, in 1894. Ken Schitt, the crime correspondent, provides a darkly humorous account of Holmes' infamous murder castle in Chicago, weaving in absurdities about real estate and the impracticality of managing a property enhanced with secret rooms and gas chambers. This narrative continues the show's penchant for blending the morbid with the ridiculous. Additionally, the show skims over significant cultural events, including the release of Disney's *The Little Mermaid* in 1989. Smithsonian Moss encapsulates the impact this film had on animation and pop culture through humorous commentary about its story, characters, and the nostalgia it evokes. Her vibrant enthusiasm highlights the film's influence on subsequent Disney productions and its role in reigniting the studio’s creativity. Finally, the tone returns to contemporary absurdities, discussing the young Dalai Lama's ascension to power at the age of 1

The news show opens with a humorous nod to historical events with a blend of satire and absurdity. The first headline covers the fall of Fort Washington, where the British Army has succeeded in capturing the fort, jokingly depicting the Americans’ surrender as a tactical decision of "running away very slowly." Over 2,800 men and significant military supplies are taken prisoner, accompanied by an eyewitness account from Ezekiel Butterworth, whose shrill recounting reflects the chaos and confusion of the event. British General Howe's celebrations are depicted with comic imagery, where he forces prisoners to sing "God Save the King" while brewing a large pot of tea. Meanwhile, George Washington’s commentary serves as a slightly self-deprecating reflection on military preparedness. Transitioning to Canada, the show delves into the trial of Louis Riel, the leader of the Metis Rebellion, highlighting its shocking bias. The absurdity of an all-white jury’s rushed indictment showcases the prejudiced nature of the proceedings, drawing an exaggerated comparison to fictional judicial misadventures. While Riel’s spokesperson argues a madness defense due to Riel’s divine claims, the audience is treated to laughable quotes and comparisons that illustrate the farcical nature of the legal system at play, culminating in a dramatic commentary on justice and social bias. The show then lightens the mood with a comical report on the Broadway opening of "The Sound of Music." This segment humorously critiques the production, framing it as a musical plague that has entranced audiences with yodeling nuns and anti-Nazi themes, despite the bizarre reactions—including reports of nausea from the audience. The backlash from local groups and heightened tourist interest in climbing mountains adds to the comedic layers of controversy surrounding the performance. In a dramatic shift to historical reporting, the program includes a surreal retelling of Francisco Pizarro’s ambush of Inca Emperor Atahualpa in 1532. The chaotic scene is described vividly, highlighting the absurdity of poorly planned confrontations as the Spanish force engages in actions reminiscent of an awkward party crash. War correspondent Brian Bastable's coverage cinematically captures the moment, complete with a humorous fascination with the unrest in the Inca ranks brought on by the presence of horses. Following this, the show juxtaposes 1973’s Great Alaskan Oil Slide Act with environmental protests declaring the danger of the pipeline. Melody Wintergreen details the unceremonious approval for the construction, highlighting the disconnect between the oil industry’s ambition and the concerns of environmentalists. The witty critiques of conventions in both engineering and environmental ethics emphasize the clash between economic interests and ecological preservation. The travel report shifts the tone once more, featuring a comedic breakdown of traffic issues. Polly Beep's whimsical report includes an incident involving sheep protesting for grazing rights, blending serious social commentary with absurdity and painting a highly exaggerated picture of road congestion. The science segment then introduces listeners to the serendipitous discovery of LSD by chemist Albert Hoffman, initially intended for custard powder. The narratives of mistaken intentions leading to groundbreaking discoveries are wrapped in playful humor, recounting Hoffman’s ensuing psychedelic experiences that further delve into the bizarre outcomes of scientific inquiry. As the news show wraps up, host Madu ties together the various segments, reinforcing the absurdity of reality as seen through comedic lenses. The closing comments present headlines from tomorrow, teasing engaging future content while maintaining a tone of light-hearted absurdity about the ridiculous nature of the stories covered. The overall effect of the show is a satirical journey through various historical epochs and cultural phen

The radio show embarks on a whimsical journey through the 'unexpectedly mundane,' presenting a collection of bizarre yet humorous scenarios coupled with satirical news reports. The opening segment introduces a series of odd headlines, such as a man defying the rain with an umbrella, a cat engaging in a six-hour contemplative stare, and the troubling story of burnt toast leading to an existential crisis in the kitchen. Listeners are then treated to a teasing announcement of an exclusive interview with the world’s oldest hamster, hinting at the absurdity to follow. As the show transitions into the news segment, it delivers a comically exaggerated report of a day when 'absolutely nothing of significance' occurred. This bizarre twist sparks concern from emergency services as they respond to reports of inactivity throughout the nation. The Institute of Notable Occurrences declares it the most uneventful day on record, with Professor Theodore Dullard humorously warning of a possible vacuum of events if this trend persists. The program then dives into a weather forecast delivered in a satirical style, contrasting the chilly autumn weather across different regions of Britain. The southern part is described as suitable for hibernation and conker fights, whereas the north is drearily gray, perfect for staying in bed with a cup of tea. The west is humorously depicted as experiencing gale-force winds strong enough to lift garden furniture, and the entire segment underscores the weather's typical British charm, punctuated by amusing music. Next, the show explores the annals of history with a segment detailing the year 655, delivered by their historical correspondent Brian Bastable from a time machine. He vividly recounts a gruesome battle on the banks of the River Wynwade, where bloodshed and carnage vividly unfold in darkly comic fashion. This juxtaposition of mundane event reporting with historical horrors brings a unique flavor and humor to the narrative as Bastable navigates the chaos surrounding him in a comedically exaggerated manner. In a sharp transition to 1959, the focus shifts to a notorious crime scene in Holcomb, Kansas, presented by Ken Schitt. Here, the gruesome details surrounding a family's murder by two criminals juxtapose with commentary on the birth of true crime literature through Truman Capote's accounts, highlighting the moral quandary of turning tragedy into entertainment. The host’s brutal candor critiques society's fascination with sensationalism. The narrative swings to 1922, where an apparent technical malfunction incapacitates the show from accessing significant historical information. In this void, political correspondent Hardiman Pesto humorously searches for meaning in inane public gatherings and fountain unveilings, while the amusing banter about the fountain itself delivers a blend of historical reference and absurdity. The commentary develops further into 1859 recounting the first modern Olympic Games held in Athens, where absurd events unfold, including a competitor inadvertently turning a javelin throw into a comedic disaster. The host's playful anecdotes about the athletes and dubious sponsorships infuse the segment with both historical and humorous commentary. A science segment introduces a special report on space espionage in 1988, where the Soviet Buran Space Shuttle is hilariously revealed to be a British knock-off. The dissection of the absurdities of technological imitation finds a place in the narrative, humorously attributing the shuttle's engineering to "ordinary toffees" instead of serious scientific advancements. Finally, the show explores the notably barren year of 1760, with Pastor Kevin Monstrance discussing its historically uneventful nature. Through comical anecdotes about old newspaper clippings and frantic attempts to discover any significant events, he humorously outlines a day of reflection and quietude, albeit with amusing suggestions about giant squirrels.

The Butter Machine

In this episode, we embark on a whirlwind journey through history and absurdity, starting with the Apollo 12 astronauts who boldly pressed on despite being struck by lightning twice during their launch in 1969. As we unpack this extraordinary and somewhat comical incident, we learn how NASA deemed it merely a "bit of static," which humorously led to the revelation that the team managed to successfully navigate to the moon despite losing all instruments while only a pocket calculator and an electric toothbrush remained functional. Our story unfolds to reveal that the daring moonwalkers returned home with 75 pounds of moon rocks, which ludicrously turned out to be cheese, as local lunar resident Bert Moonface bemoans the loss of their prized camembert. Shifting gears, we humorously dissect the recent governmental blunder in the United States, likening the situation to an extended episode of a sitcom as President Clinton and House Speaker Gingrich engaged in a comical standoff over misplaced keys, leading to an unprecedented 27-day government shutdown. We explore the surreal images of federal workers idly standing by in parking lots, obliviously absorbed in daytime television, illustrating the absurd lengths to which politics can drive reality. As tensions rose, a chaotic image of janitors wrestling over photocopying machines emerges, painting a vivid picture of bureaucratic pandemonium. We then jet off to the outer reaches of the solar system, introducing Sedna, the most antisocial planet to date. Without any concern for cosmic etiquette, Sedna maintains such an elongated orbit that it risks sparking outrage among traditional astronomers who fondly recall a time when planets knew their position in the solar system. The comparison to that one person who avoids small talk at all costs adds a delightful satire to the narrative, further illustrating the quirky character of celestial bodies. Next, we recount the harrowing yet comedic tale of HMS Ark Royal from 1941. Our war correspondent paints a vivid scene onboard the ship, resisting the impending doom of German U-boat warfare. Amidst the chaos, sailors maintain their composure, even managing to play cricket on a sloping deck as the ship sees its final moments. In a tale that intertwines gallantry and humor, we witness the spirit of British resilience, epitomized through the crew's camaraderie—complete with last biscuit exchanges—despite the grim circumstances. Furthermore, we explore a pivotal moment in the civil rights movement with the story of Ruby Bridges and the McDonough Three. Our correspondent captures the gut-wrenching yet inspiring atmosphere as young girls courageously march into previously segregated schools, bravely confronting a hostile crowd, signifying a seismic shift in American education. The narrative underscores the triumph of hope and determination against adversity. Finally, we share the shocking revelation of Milli Vanilli's infamous lip-syncing scandal in 1990. The story serves as a poignant reminder of the industry's reliance on image over substance, as we delve into how this manufactured duo came undone during a live performance, leading to their fall from grace. The episode wraps up with a satirical nod to the future, hinting at a new wave of artificial intelligence in entertainment and the perils of deception, while reminding our audience to stay authentic and true to one’s craft. Join us for an episode filled with historical hilarity, uncanny wit, and an unfiltered reflection on the often absurd realities of life as we cut through the mundane and explore the extraordinary.
