less than a week ago with our son running around on the. same spot sort of taking over with. the protesters and. writers with how easily everything was overrun on wednesday it definitely makes a. it's very hard to see in reports of potential violence happening on you know days before night. and that's that's really disconcerting. dozens of those who stormed the capital have now been arrested with more arrests expected in the coming days the f.b.i. has appealed to the public to help bring more riotous to justice. house democrats are pressing ahead with an article of impeachment on monday a move which would make donald trump the 1st ever president to be impeached twice but it could also mean that trump would be able to run for public office in the

future it's a move that has received support from some republicans but critics say that 10 against trump has come too late it doesn't seem to matter. that sustaining the law is a trump ism has damaged the country they don't care about that they're a little worried of the short term about their political positioning but in the long term they're not worried about anything as the president trump he's now been banned from twitter as well as other social media platforms who are quoting concerns over inciting further violence. tech giants and members of trump's own poteen may now also be turning against him but across the country this still no shortage of people who support the outgoing president. and earlier we spoke to edward always so junior high tech journalist in the u.s. has written that social media isn't entirely to blame for the capital storming but

we asked him whether the situation would have escalated the way it did without social media platforms even if you mean out of power but at this specific time i mean you know one of the images that was circulated a lot was an image of a confederate flag being real good inside of the capitol building and i think that says everything we need to know in terms of whether or not this would have happened there are still at the heart of american society and still problems with in bed and throughout its institutions our relation to its legal systems political social or social cultural. you know realities as a united states there's still problem you know rejection of democracy especially you know in the 70 years since it's been expanded fully. and that this you know right wing mob is i think just the latest manifestation of it but it's a consistent being that you know goes back to the earliest days of this country and it's not going to disappear with technological fixes and is definitely not going to

its 1st win of the season and beating hoffenheim a 4 nil as a mathieu hockey became the 1st american to score a hat trick in the bundesliga. was the world blues hadn't won any of the last 30 league matches and so any gold was going to be good as it turned out the open it was a real beauty that came from the feet of matthew hoppy an american nobody about to become a real somebody in the space of 20 minutes of football in front of pretty much no 1 . 1 goal in the 1st tough followed by another just before the alamar was the stuff of hewitt teenage dreams. and when the 19 year old scored his 3rd to all but in shock as we must run. the game had taken the shape of pure football fantasy. so what was with a huge sense of relief that chuckle heard the final whistle i do not equal the league record for games played without a win even if the california didn't catch much of the wood of the post whistle team

for her. subscribe to the documentary to. the. point. presenting europe's coach of the make a german the other nominees. and. both also german

in 2020 german coaches was simply unstoppable. flick won the league cup and champions league trouble with. the premier league although he lost his champions league and coach of the year crowns to flick i'm. sure the champions league semi final at just 33 years of age so why do all the best club coaches right now come from germany. german coaches won 3 of the big 5 european leagues as well as the champions league. the country has always produced good coaches but nothing like this so where did the current crop of managerial geniuses come from reason number one. in the past german coaches favored a physical results oriented style it was more about desire.

is hostile. can still be a spiky character when he wants to be. and just listen to me. but there's so much more to them. to be able to understand the demands of the game players will look to and say. these guys all have. their tactical knowledge is up there with the very best and they know to always look forwards. you know as a manager you have to look for. then you have to look at the next next game prepared next branden next opponent not goes one has been at leipsic since the summer of 2019 with sky high expectations and the youngest coach in bundesliga history is delivering secondly the people's business you need to be able to.

relate motivate. energize create a bond between them and all of these things and strong people skills indeed top coaches have to go above and beyond their educators and peacemakers. so much and when it. comes around this because artists of this could just flick took over by and when they were reeling in november 29th teen over the next year he collected more titles than defeats his relationship with his players gives him an edge. and furred lee a bit of charisma and the ability to sell things so yourself sell the club sell a project. be the figurehead of the organization be the face of it modern coaches have to be an example to their players and the whole club to create

a sense of togetherness that's infectious. interest of full people so i was always very interested in people and didn't change. told his players they have to play a different kind of football and they followed him. the result they won the champions league in 2019 and then in 2021 the english title after a 30 year drought. so these guys know what they're doing but even when you've had success you have to be open to new ideas. in the diets and. in days gone by coaches from other countries out shawn their german colleagues. argentina's hélène iau headed out came up with cats and that show in the sixty's. winos middles brought the netherlands glory with total football. club

spanish rival pep achieved phenomenal success with ticky tack based on dizzying passing triangles. qua jello wasn't just a pioneer he also became a coach at a very young age. and entering coaching early is reason number 2 for germany's success. it was just 36 when he became a coach just a moreno was 37. venga was just 34 they all got into coaching early and that's something that's true of a german quartet too. was 34 flake managed a 4th division team when he was just 31. total was 35 when he took over minds of though he was a youth coach at just 26. and what do you know when total coached outboards under

20 three's he made. then at the tender age of 20 his assistant. at age 28 novels and took over hoffenheim to become easily the youngest bundesliga coach ever thought that his own neither. sent off the evil level as one in his father's british leader says. the sense of calmness you have to forgive. him and have to quit his playing career early due to injuries while flick played over 100 games for bion before his career also succumbed to a serious injury. slump and totally didn't quite make it to the top of the game display is so they switched. and took up a place in the. course the younger you are the easier it is you think.

love's in europe's top leagues for experienced coaches like. them coming off the back of successful careers as players. is far more likely to give youth coaches the chance to gain experience at the highest level. even though. this. is changing because even germany's 990 world cup winning players struggled as coaches. perhaps because they hark back to those days and coached players in the way that worked for them but in the meantime moved. the simple truth is that you don't have to have been a good player to become a good coach. and that brings us to reason number

3 a change of image for german coaches. the stereotype of the hot german coaching school started to disappear in 2006 national team coach you can clean. up that year. and saw that yes even the germans can be relaxed and happy the image of the nation changed. the system took over bringing us to $24.00 teams. germany became playing good football and by the way was the assistant coach. at the time the poster boy for germany's new image was you can claw his love of heavy metal football brought admiration not just in england by a fish could have stereotypes about german coaches were gradually disappearing the

only thing i know about myself history that i can react predisposed to his so because my whole life is my preparation for as long as i told about football i'm always prepared i think the language is an issue. most germans speak english pretty well he may find it easy to adapt comes easier than south americans because the french or the spaniards german coaches are now considered to be open and in a departure from the old school focused on building for the future. that brings us to reason number 4 the coaches who inspired them. while they got little international recognition these coaches had a huge impact on german football. fink. and. ralph rang they can just use the back 4 to germany and in 1908 his side took the bundesliga by storm he also led hoffman from the 3rd division and like sick from

the 4th to the top flight turning them into bundesliga forces as the sporting director of red bulls football empire rang they demanded attacking football and an emphasis on young players and that helped shape germany's new coaching generation. man was also a youth coach undergone nick of hoffenheim. played for all my under god nick. i hope you all know on me but he is. one of the best if not the best. actually saw. it. you know a lot of good stuff and different groups have changed the whole changed whole clocks in and. if you think it and got make it influenced german football because they were creative and creativity is reason number 5 for current success

among german coaches think german german manages to pull they tend to work in clubs that don't have unlimited finances so they're quite flexible klopp and total started out at meit's where money was tight they couldn't buy new players they had to develop them that meant having to be creative and that experience was the key to their later success at bigger clubs. in lyons. and the very beginning sponsors of absolutely everything wrong the football team as i had to learn. the hard way modern coaches are in charge of a lot of people so it's good when they know from experience how to put the many puzzle pieces together. i have now i would say maybe 20 assistants so i'm already the manager of a coaching staff and. i can't do that because i know what they all are doing

because i'm just by myself the secret of today's german coaches is their perfect combination of qualities they don't fit the old german stereotypes they are modern they gained experience early on that open and likeable their creative in part thanks to their creative role models they always look forwards and they are hungry . the fire of its foot by its done and its mccool. to mind some. different nations have led the way you coaching through the ages currently the germans have the baton so which country will they pass it on to.

need a cannon from the german band his martin is the perfect accompany meant money for the ball but striving for my family says they can even tell from downstairs if i'm playing a margin or something else runs. it's an icon of american music history. has a mystique about it and i think that that is rooted in all these decades now of some of the most important artists in so many genres of american for nakheel or music playing martin guitars jack and. jack adamle. oh i know you are the very 1st one i remember play a chord of this guitar and just thinking that this was the holy grail you know this was something to aspire to this market guitar.

the martin is highly respected by musicians and has long enjoyed legendary status for some it's the stradivarius of the guitar family the rolls royce of acoustic instruments its history is unparalleled in the history of guitar making an instrument that's starting in saxony conquered the music world. i think that martin guitars are special because they come from a remarkable tradition of fine instrument making so right from the start you know martin guitars were finally cry. to the finest woods you know that kind of thing and i think that's part of what makes the of the month so special. for more than

180 years martin guitars has been hand built by generations of the same family using carefully selected woods and applying their finally to craft to produce its understated elegance it was not in that cave the world the flat top acoustic guitar earlier guitars all had rounded bodies and a mistake a ball sound accompanies its sleek form. sometimes that form is molded by the musicians who play the sting had his martin built with eco friendly would ed sheeran worked with martin to create his x. signature edition. of the. 74 gets was to see if i like the sound of the. shape of them and there was this double i. remember it turning up at

a gig and the focus was there on the treadmill now and i was all this this one's incredible i'm just going to take it i just know you. take me here. can also has his own personalized model the martin d $28.00 became his favorite guitar just a few years ago now he doesn't go anywhere without it. sure would be i had it in the studio with me for the last album in new orleans i wrote the title song from the album with that guitar like most songs since i got it. the story of the martin guitar dates back to the 19th century in the village of mark no i kill him

and saxony spokane district that's warren january 17th 96 custom flightless martin was born into a family that had been in the woodworking business for generations it goes all the way back to my great great great grandfather who fortunately when he decided. to break away from his father's furniture business and dedicate his life to making guitars he chose to make very far in guitars. but the idea didn't come completely out of the blue mocking occupation was already a century of musical instrument manufactor even back then almost everyone in the village worked in the trade. it was a tradition which started in 16th $77.00 when 12 craftsmen got together to form germany's 1st guild of violin makers they were later joined by craftsmen building

almost every instrument played in a german orchestra. the i was going to go he me and exiles who'd been forced to leave bohemia on religious grounds who worked as instrument builders settled here the fluxes stock board in the british cut since the state of saxony allowed them the opportunity to settle here as protestants. is on the how distant we could go and of course you have the mountains where wood and climactic conditions are building such instruments waterfalls it's unfair and bore . that the craftsman of mach not commission ignored one instrument the guitar it would be christiane free to would one day make one of its instruments world famous but that came much later 1st the talented 15 year old was sent abroad to become an apprentice to the most famous master guitar maker of the time. he had any interest in the violin he went right from furniture to guitar. so i don't think he

just didn't it wasn't something that interested him the guitar by this point by the you know the late seventy's early eighty's hundreds that had worked its way up into northern europe had become relatively refined and relatively standardized and it it there was there must have been something about that thing the guitar that intrigued him enough that he decided to stop working for his father and ultimately having to go to vienna because the violin makers at that time weren't interested in the guitar so they didn't even want to teach him they didn't really probably know how to do it so then he went to vienna as a young man alert under johan style for. christan freedom is martin remained in the n.f.r. 14 years he met his wife there the daughter of an acclaimed cabinet maker and started a family eventually he decided to return to his native saxony to open a guitar building workshop under his own name. he came home and the violin makers

did not want we embrace it they saw him as competition they used the argument that when he worked for his father in germany he apprenticed as a cabinet maker and he has that certificate so if he wants to make furniture have at it if he wants to make a tours in germany he has to start in the beginning and go through that wall arduous apprenticeship. the violin makers were prepared to go to great lengths to keep out the competition by then demand was growing for the guitar even cabinet makers in the village had started building them and that was something the guild of violin makers wasn't prepared to accept $826.00 saw the start of what would the come a legendary lawsuit. to sion been. escalated between the violin makers and the guitar builders the cabinet makers who wanted to

build guitars and it ended up in court it would be awful for there was much negotiation and admittedly both sides had reasonable arguments this can you know these are off as is often the case with it all hinged on their businesses and maintaining their exclusive right to producing something while stopping others from getting a share of. a legal dispute continued for years without any conclusion martin had hoped to manufacture and sell high quality instruments bearing his name . frustrated and like many germans decided to seek his fortune in the new world in 833 he left mocking my kitchen together with his wife and children and boarded a ship for new york martins planned to establish himself in america would be a challenge but also a huge opportunity he was to become the country's 1st guitar maker. and

martin believed america was ready for it he saw a market for his new instrument hoping it could soon be as popular as the banjo or the fiddle and he was right with a guitar experiencing its 1st heyday soon after the advantage the guitar the acoustic guitar a particular house it's portable and so here's a country of immigrants yes everyone came into a big city from europe a lot of people said no i don't want to live in these big cities i'm going west or north or south and initially you went by wagon. and you could find room for your conestoga wider for a guitar much more easily than a piano and so then at night as you're go way west to ohio or somewhere like that and you build a fire you can pull out the guitar. with this guitar as soon gaining and they move far beyond new york martins business quickly flourished. his instruments for prize

winners at national exhibitions but martin never really felt completely at home in the cold and dirty new york. after visiting another german couple in nazareth pennsylvania he decided to settle there no coincidence with its gently rolling hills the region reminded him of home. the 1st time the only time i went to markers as we drive in what do i see the gentle rolling hills and then as the lithograph over there shows there's the town of market correction built into the side of these gentle rolling hills if you get in a helicopter and you back off of nazareth and you look down it's a town settled by german immigrants built into the side of rolling hills so they

came out here and they found people spoke german they cooked german food when it came to holidays like christmas they celebrated them in a very traditional german way i'm sure. it's a good feeling but. in nazareth martin expanded his business and turned from making individual instruments to serial production soon he had his own factory built to keep up with demand and he made crucial changes to his instruments up until then there had been one set back associated with classical guitars they were simply too quiet for large auditoriums in concerts they were drowned out by fiddles banjos and the piano so martin said about the placing of the traditional gut with steel strings and made the body of the guitar larger his changes completely revolutionized guitar building nobody had ever bridge the guitar

quite like that it was unique because it you know met the needs of the new deal larger style guitar martin was the only company making h.r. that size so they had to be inventive and come up with something that would stabilize the instrument as a result of the need to satisfy a demand in the market place their particular construction design and the artists that would end up using it because it became a voice for you know more of the country folk and blues. type of utilization when he died in 873 the father of america's guitar making industry left his family a thriving business and at the turn of the 20th century his grandson frank henry martin went on to write guitar history he was the man behind the 1st 6 string guitar which was a large bodied instrument but still relatively light. it was the prototype of the

western guitar and frank henry martin called it that read not in 1916 it went into serial production and soon became very popular the idea of calling it a dreadnought you know comes from one of the older martin's was a history buff and he was really taken with a a battleship that the british had developed. during world war one actually and i think mr martin loved the idea of this big powerful ship and the idea that that it was would crafted to him it seemed like the perfect name for his large body guitar. and the dread not to put my 10 guitars on a path to worldwide success and the legendary dean model would become the chosen guitar for the world's most well known musicians. and then came the 1930 s. depression it could have spell the end for a company like martin but for

a stroke of luck. then you know you have the movie era when the great singing cowboys like gene autry came along and you know there's gene autry riding a horse. astride a horse heroic character and he's got a guitar in his hands and he singing which is you know kind of crazy cowboy singing but for the movies it was a great thing and i think a lot of people sitting in that audience looking at someone like gene autry up on a big screen holding this gorgeous martin guitar it's to you things begin to click i want to play guitar i want to get me one of those guitars like the one the other

the gene autry played or the jimmy rogers play and i think that was the thing that kind of propelled the idea of the martin guitar being something a little special. and again the company began upping output with each and every guitar still being made by hand. the finest ones were used and some instruments were made with mother of pearl inlays. but it wasn't long before another boy event affected the company. the government came to us and they said so you know we have this war and we're going to need to take ask the majority of the men that you employ to go off and fight so we hired women didn't miss a beat and you saw i think today our shop we have many women guitar builders but for that period during the war the vast majority of the guitar builders were women

we did get out of the business of making archtop guitars because the government came to us and said. we're going to put you on allotments of strategic materials one of which is spruce because we need it for airplane wings and we said ok here are these are stock guitars that take a piece of spruce this big to make one guitar top. if you take a piece of spruce stepping to make flat tops you can make 5 or 6. after the war production was slow to pick up but once more it fell to a musician to help revive the company's fortunes elvis presley. the king of rock and roll had recorded the famous sound sessions with his favorite da teen and at the 28. and he even had a special leather case made. my elvis had a big pink cadillac when he finally started making money he went out and bought himself

the top of the line finest so there was the car the cadillac and there was the guitar the martin guitar that was the top of the line. that i now martin was the world's leading producer of acoustic guitars and demand had grown so much that by the early 1960 s. there was a waiting list of up to 3 years due to limited capacity. martin guitars weren't the exclusive domain of the big stars anyone who played guitar wanted one. especially in the sixty's when so many rock n roll groups had a martin front and center acoustic guitar alongside and it influenced so many young players and then of course a little later you get groups like crosby stills nash and young featuring beautiful

martin guitars and these kinds of things really drove sales and really once that movement. was afoot i think the martin guitar of the dreadnought was really well established i mean the beatles played martin dread knocks you know and that makes a big difference that keeps things going. but singing in the dead on to. change the broken wings and learn to fly. johnny cash made an interesting comment on we asked him one time we said you know mr cash can you give us a quote for our catalog and he said i feel safe with a bargain. and don't you come to the use of them says you've been. there. for so

long. willie nelson is a great example of someone he has one martin guitar and that's the only guitar you ever see him playing is his one martin guitar he said he said if my guitar stops working i'm going to retire and so far it's still working. great cock is one of america's most famous guitarists but when he plays acoustic he always picks up his martin especially in the recording studio. to me from the very 1st moments of playing guitar mark was like that in a call of what it was fired the habits of acoustic instruments and the reasons you know i go look at my record collection i'd see neil young with a d. 45 in front of that comes

a time of record certainly all the crosby stills of that stuff jimmy page joe walsh up to big joe walsh band. that the list is. obviously the boardwalk really goes on in a kind of big. sound of an acoustic instrument you heard a record like you know that's emerged with interest that. it was the era of the singer songwriter and they all played a martin with their back to the land movement and a yearning for simplicity they spearheaded a trend to a more natural approach the martin guitar fit the bill perfectly hand made from wood without the technical bells and whistles. its popularity surged during the 1960 s. margin the 3rd built a bigger factory still making instruments by hand. in 1971 martin produced almost 23000 guitars annually all meeting the high quality
