Fall 2024 marks 50 years since both the legendary Rumble in the Jungle fight between Muhammad Ali and George Foreman, and the Zaire’ 74 music festival, headlined by the likes of James Brown, BB King, Miriam Makeba and myriad other stars.

Muhammad Ali’s life bobs and weaves through an era of revolutions and disruptive social change in both the US and Africa. In the lead up to this highly politicized superfight, Ali and many other freedom fighters are forced to confront old truths and build bridges toward understanding while they learn to wield the power of influence and sacrifice. Featuring personal accounts of the monumental effort it took to put on these events, Rumble walks backstage with a staggeringly powerful group of fighters, performers, producers and activists, uplifting the legacy of Black Excellence.

If you consider yourself an enthusiast of creepy Victorian history, you probably already know about the age of spiritualism, the grisly murders, the grave robbers, twisted pseudo psychotherapy, and memento mori – But I try to dig a little deeper. This was a time full of lace corsetry, romantic poetry, and a deep reverence and affection for the dead. It was a culture of shared sorrow, ornament and elegance, prudishness and scandal, bone chilling children’s stories, and for whatever reason, I just feel at home there. There’s something strangely comforting about the heebie jeebies this era gives me. If you find yourself equally enchanted by things that most people would find horrifying, this podcast is probably for you. To listen ad-free, visit myvictoriannightmare.com and join my Patreon.

Just Nona is a faith-anchored, emotionally honest, and psychologically grounded podcast for women who are ready to do the deeper work of healing. This evolved format moves beyond interviews into focused, heart-level conversations centered around one powerful question at a time—questions about identity, unworthiness, rejection, resilience, purpose, and the quiet battles women fight while succeeding publicly.

Host Nona Jones—author, CEO, preacher, and leadership coach—draws from personal testimony, biblical truth, and behavioral science to help listeners confront what’s shaping them beneath the surface and re-form their identity from the inside out. Through intentional teaching, “Heart Question” segments, and practical frameworks, Just Nona challenges internalized lies, disrupts cultural narratives, and equips women to live from wholeness rather than performance.
