Dan Novak and Ashley Thompson are the hosts of the Wednesday, October 4, 2023 podcast.
01:05 The program starts with Anna Matteo’s report on a Vatican meeting called a synod to discuss contentious issues among Catholics. Mario Ritter says food prices are rising again around the world. Observers blame export restrictions, weather conditions, and the war in Ukraine.
13:25 For the Education Report, Caty Weaver reports on the successful efforts of a small school in the American state of Alabama to raise its math scores.

22:43 In Lesson of the Day, Dan Friedell and John Russell teach the vocabulary “spontaneous” and its many uses. The word comes from a fascinating story about London artist Ben Wilson who paints on a piece of dried gum that has been crushed flat into the ground.
