    In a fascinating biblical story, we learn that the first harp was created by a man named Jubal, who is a descendant of Cain. Jubal is famously referred to as the "father of all who play the harp and organ," according to the book of Genesis. This suggests that he is seen as the very first musician in history.

    It's important to note that when we see the word "organ" in this context, it doesn’t refer to the large pipe organs we think of today. Instead, it likely means a simple instrument, such as a mouth organ or a type of Pan flute.

    Jubal’s contributions marked a significant moment in human history, as this invention symbolizes the beginning of music and the arts. Alongside Jubal, we also have his brothers who contributed different skills to society. His brother Jabal is recognized as the ancestor of those who raise livestock, while their half-brother Tubal-Cain is known for his expertise in working with metals.

    Together, these figures illustrate the early development of music and agriculture, showing how different talents emerged as civilization progressed.

    I’m Gail Nobles. Thank you very much for listening.

    But, after football, Bubba started feeling the effects of all those hits he took while playing. He had pain and headaches.

    So, Bubba and other former players sued the NFL. They said the NFL didn't tell them enough about the dangers of head injuries.

    Then, something surprising happened: Howard Cosell, a famous sportscaster who often criticized the NFL, supported Bubba and the other players.

    Cosell wasn't a lawyer, but he was a big voice and helped get the word out about the lawsuit.

    Even though Bubba died before the lawsuit was finished, it be came a big case with thousands of players. The NFL ended up paying billions of dollars to help the players with their medical problems and research.

    Bubba Smith's story shows the price athletes pay for playing sports, and how companies like the NFL should protect their players. Even someone famous like Bubba could challenge a powerful organization and make a difference, with the help of someone like Howard Cosell. This story is still important today as we think about keeping athletes safe in all sports.

    Let me tell you, that PBS soul celebration from the 60s and 70s was absolutely electric! You know how we love to groove and move to those timeless rhythms, and when Yvonne Elliman stepped out there on that stage and belted out "If I Can't Have You"? Whoa, what a moment!

    Hello! I’m Gail Nobles and you’re listening to Times Rippley. I’m talking to you today about Yvonne Elliman and her smashing hit. If I Can’t Have You.

    Now, talking about the Bee Gees, those brothers knew how to write a hit, and this one really captured the spirit of the 70s. Just imagine the disco lights, the vibrant colors—Saturday Night Fever was setting the scene, and Yvonne’s voice soared right through it all, reaching that number one spot on the US charts in '77!

    What I love is that soul music has that power to connect folks, to get them up on their feet dancing. Yvonne’s take on that song was just soulful and full of passion, bringing the house down, and reminding us of those unforgettable years when music was all about heart, love, and unity.

    So, if you missed that celebration, oh man, you better make sure to catch the reruns! It’s history, it’s rhythm, it’s soul, and it’s just waiting to sweep you off your feet! Keep that spirit alive, and let that music play!
