KHOL's Evan Ballew in conversation with Aaron Davis.

Kaffepriset rusar. Torka och dåliga skördar. Hur påverkas rosterierna? Kommer arabica ersättas av andra arter? Och hur smakar kaffesurrogaten? Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. – Klimatförändringarna märks väldigt tydligt i länder där kaffe odlas, säger Anna Nordström, provsmakare på Löfbergs. Och man kan inte förutsäga vad som ska hända med torka, regn och skördar.Arabica är det absolut vanligaste kaffe i världen. Det odlas också mycket robusta. Båda hotas nu av både torka och för mycket regn.– Jag tänker på det ibland: Vad ska vi njuta av om arabican försvann? säger Johan Ekfeldt, som var med och grundade Sveriges första specialkafferosteri Johan & Nyström, och sen 2018 driver kafferosteriet Gringo.I sitt labb testar han kaffesubstitut gjorda på cikoria (som var vanligt under andra världskriget), på dadelkärnor, lupin, spelt, en blandning gjord på cikoria, vete, kornmalt, fikon och ekollon, och substitut gjort på maskrosrot. Dessutom har Johan rostat maskrosrötter själv.Som jämförelse smakar vi också på arabica, robusta och liberica, ett art som nämns som en möjlig ersättare om arabica och robusta inte längre går att odla.Dr Aaron Davis är botanist och forskar på kaffe och klimat vid den botaniska trädgården Kew Gardens i London. Han har ägnat en stor del av sitt liv åt att hitta ”nya” kaffearter. – Vi har hittat väldigt konstiga kaffen, säger Aaron Davis. En del smakar förfärligt, medan andra är mer angenäma. Och det finns möjliga ersättare till arabica och robusta.Varken Anna Nordström eller Johan Ekfeldt tror att kaffepriset kommer sjunka igen.– Det har varit för lågt pris, framför allt här i Sverige, säger Anna.Bönderna ser ingen framtid i kaffeodling. Det är inte lönsamt och inte förutsägbart. Det är svårt att hitta folk som vill jobba med kaffe.– Till ett kilo kaffe ska nån plocka mellan fyra till fem tusen kaffebär, säger Johan Ekfeldt. Som sen ska skalas, sorteras, torkas, skeppas, rostas och ut till handeln. Och så kostar det några kronor per kopp.

Aaron Davis, the visionary behind Acid Camp, tells the tale of an inspiring journey that spans from the streets of Brooklyn to the sunny vibes of Los Angeles. His adventure began in Brooklyn in 2008, where he landed on the scene by producing events for groups like Discovery and the Brooklyn Electronic Music Festival. In 2012, he brought his love of promoting events to LA, co-founding an all-vinyl radio show that serendipitously led to the creation of Acid Camp during a trip to Joshua Tree. In a short amount of time, Acid Camp quickly became a beloved staple of the underground scene, due to the collective energy of passionate friends and a community-driven spirit, as well as iconic merch and branding that added to the underground allure and helped build a dedicated following. Despite the challenges of organizing underground events, Davis's unwavering passion for hosting parties and sharing music has always seen him through, and his dedication to music curation and collaboration with talented artists and engineers has been key to crafting the unique and joyful vibe of Acid Camp events. Ever one to keep it real, Davis sees himself as a raver with a passion for the music rather than a veteran DJ and promoter, and he continues to relish the journey of creating unforgettable experiences with friends and music lovers every event. Here he shares his story with us ahead of his latest mix for As You Like It, let's press play and dive in.

When Dr. Aaron Davis read Reasonable Faith, it changed the trajectory of his life!

This show we do a throwback to our 100th episode where we talk with our two most important mentors ------ Our 100th show!  We couldn't think of a better way to celebrate this milestone than by having our two most important mentors on the show:  Mike Brown of the former Praesidium Group and Craig Douglas of Shivworks. Topics:   Meeting Mike in the mid 90s, how he became such an important coach and mentor to Eric and Aaron; how he pushed Eric join the TPI forums and to take ECQC.  The Twins becoming a host to Craig for multiple classes through the years and how that relationship led to training with others in the Shivworks collective.   TPI and its influence on the current multidisciplinary realm and how forums have transitioned to video and social media.  Is this good/bad?  Who are folks in this multidisciplinary realm whom both Craig and Mike recommend and what makes great instructors.  Lastly, we talk a little gear, P365s, red dots, and some other fun topics to close out the show.  Previous appearances of Mike and Craig Mike Brown Ep. 5 https://directory.libsyn.com/episode/index/show/evosec/id/10923969 Ep 45 https://directory.libsyn.com/episode/index/show/evosec/id/18674765 Craig's Ep 13 https://directory.libsyn.com/episode/index/show/evosec/id/12326351 Ep 49 https://directory.libsyn.com/episode/index/show/evosec/id/19725887 Please subscribe and share our podcast with friends and family.  Visit our website for bios, future events and info at www.evosec.org  Like, follow and share us on Facebook and Instagram @evosecusa WE ARE PUMPED TO HAVE A NEW AFFILIATE LINK FOR ORIGIN AND JOCKO FUEL!!!  Help support this show by purchasing any of your JiuJitsu gear, Jocko Supplements, books clothing and more... link below.

In a nation that has embraced auctions, the reputation of this sales strategy is mixed. But according to one auctioneer, the experience can always be positive if the professionals involved communicate right. On this episode of Secrets of the Top 100 Agents, Aaron Davis, Harcourts' new head of auctions Australia, talks with REB's Juliet Helmke to discuss making the jump over the Tasman from the New Zealand market into Australia, and how he's approaching being a mentor to the network's up-and-coming auctioneers in the nation. Aaron shares some of the lessons he learnt as a young professional – including the biggest mistake he sees young auctioneers are making – and his thoughts on who is suited to the job. The duo discuss gender diversity in the auctioneering world, and what's required to encourage more women to enter the fold. Aaron also gives his views on why auctions can benefit all parties, so long as the professionals involved are upfront and honest in their communication. Did you like this episode?

We go back to earlier this year and Measha Brueggergosman-Lee, a diva in the true sense of the word: a famous female opera star, with all the fierce discipline and flair for drama that that entails.

She does everything wholeheartedly, which is all the more inspiring when you know her experience with cardiovascular disease, undergoing open-heart surgery not once but twice.

Measha was born in New Brunswick, and now makes her home in the Annapolis Valley of Nova Scotia. Currently Artist in Residence with Opera Atelier, Measha has just released an album called Zombie Blizzard, featuring concert arias by Aaron Davis and Margaret Atwood.

This show we have two extremely pivotal guest, Sarah Adams and Dave “Boon” Benton.  They are both survivors of the 2012 Benghazi, Libya attacks and are authors of the book, Benghazi Know Thy Enemy, A Cold Case Investigation.   Many will recall the book “13 Hrs in Benghazi” and the Benghazi attacks themselves.  Boon was one of the CIA GRS contractor whom went to the aid of Ambassador Chris Stevens and his staff at the Benghazi Consulate, and later defended the CIA Annex against al-Qa'ida terrorist.  Sarah was a CIA analyst and the on the ground targeter for the Benghazi CIA Annex.  Sarah was also a Senior Advisor to the US House of Representatives Select Committee on Benghazi.  Contrary to popular media accounts, these attacks were not the result of an anti-Islam YouTube video per the Obama administration, these attacks were planned by hardened al-Qa'ida terrorist, with the Consulate attack ordered by the leader of AQ Dr. Ayman al-Zawahiri.   In these attacks we lost four patriotic Americans:  Ambassador Stevens, Sean Smith, Tyrone “Rone” Woods, and Glenn “Bub” Doherty.  This investigation is to help bring these terrorist to justice.  Links to book, audio book, how to train with Boon and more… Intro and Outro Music by: The Tactical Twins, Jason Bieler and The Baron Von Bielski Orchestra and Tim Alexander/Fata Morgana Please subscribe and share our podcast with friends and family.  Visit our website for bios, future events and info at www.evosec.org  Like, follow and share us on Facebook and Instagram @evosecusa WE ARE PUMPED TO HAVE A NEW AFFILIATE LINK FOR ORIGIN AND JOCKO FUEL!!!  Help support this show by purchasing any of your JiuJitsu gear, Jocko Supplements, books clothing and more... link below.

Have you ever wondered what your ink says about you, or pondered the delicate dance between tattoos and personal identity? This time around, I sit with Aaron Davis, a standout self-taught artist and a fierce competitor from Ink Master Season 15. From his profound Afro-Americana style to the beats that shape our lives, this episode peels back the skin of the tattoo community. We're marking our journey with a colorful palette of experiences, including Aaron's evolution from a children's book illustrator to a tattoo industry innovator. As he narrates coining the term “Afro-Americana” style, it's evident that pushing beyond the status quo isn't just about art; it's about representation and building a community where Black culture is not just seen but celebrated. Along the way, we exchange tales of the tattoo world's changing attitudes, the demand for respect and inclusivity, and how tattoos have transitioned from taboos to empowering personal declarations. Highlights-Music Preferences and Relationship Impact-Building a Community of Black Artists-Tattoo Perceptions Changing in Black Community-Appreciating and Tattooing Black Skin-Showcasing Afro-American Style and Identity-Chinese and Arabic Tattoos-Opinions on Red Ink Tattoos-Discussion on Mike Tyson's Face Tattoo-Black People and Tattoo Artists' Appreciation Follow Aaronhttps://www.instagram.com/aarondavistattooshttps://www.tiktok.com/@aarondavistattoos Follow Sequoiahttps://www.instagram.com/sequoiabholmeshttps://www.tiktok.com/@sequoiabholmeshttps://twitter.com/sequoiabholmes Follow BPLP Podhttps://www.instagram.com/bplppodhttps://twitter.com/bplppodhttps://www.tiktok.com/@bplppod Head to https://www.factormeals.com/blacklovemusic50 to get 50% off!

This episode we have the Jerry Wetzel on the show.  This is long overdue!  Eric has been interfacing with Jerry for close to 20 years via online forums like Total Protection Interactive and social media.  He is a wealth of knowledge in weapons integration into the combat sports model yet completely from the context in the street environment.  Jerry is a preeminent expert in reductionist solutions for dealing with a knife in the real world.  Some of our most important mentors credit him with building a lot of what they do, Paul Sharp, Cliff Byerly and many more, yet Jerry humbly states that the exchange was mutual.  Just recently Eric finally was able to meet and train under Jerry at the Combatives Summit in Florida.  The material was outstanding, life saving information that is changing Eric's approach to knife defense.  For more info on Jerry: Knife and Self Defense Training - Red Zone Threat Management (rzthreatmanagement.com) centerlinegym.com Intro and Outro Music by: The Tactical Twins, Jason Bieler and The Baron Von Bielski Orchestra and Tim Alexander/Fata Morgana Please subscribe and share our podcast with friends and family.  Visit our website for bios, future events and info at www.evosec.org  Like, follow and share us on Facebook and Instagram @evosecusa WE ARE PUMPED TO HAVE A NEW AFFILIATE LINK FOR ORIGIN AND JOCKO FUEL!!!  Help support this show by purchasing any of your JiuJitsu gear, Jocko Supplements, books clothing and more... link below.

This throw back episode we go back to show 38:  This episode we have the preeminent expert of Self Defense Law - Andrew Branca on the show. Arguably the only attorney in the nation that focuses purely on self defense law giving him expertise that all of us should seek. Andrew is also the author of the book, The Law of Self Defense, which will educate you on the principles needed to keep you out of legal trouble. It can not be over emphasized, if you use lethal force you WILL go through some form of legal proceedings, even if it is "cut and dry."  As gun owners the majority of us do not focus on being prepared for the legal fight, this lack of education can certainly affect our lives drastically and can result in spending the rest of our lives in prison.  Also in this episode the crew discusses Legal Assistance memberships and their efficacy.  Lastly, in the accountability section Eric speaks on his recent experience in taking and graduating from the Rangemaster Instructor Development and Certification course.   For Andrew's wealth of online sources, and to access his Q and A sessions:  https://lawofselfdefense.com/ The Law of Self Defense book:  https://www.amazon.com/Law-Self-Defense-Indispensable-Citizen/dp/1943809143/ref=sr_1_2?crid=2HBRIXMZNPIXC&dchild=1&keywords=the+law+of+self+defense+by+andrew+branca&qid=1605902265&sprefix=the+law+of+self%2Caps%2C215&sr=8-2 Intro and Outro Music by: The Tactical Twins, Jason Bieler and The Baron Von Bielski Orchestra and Tim Alexander/Fata Morgana Please subscribe and share our podcast with friends and family.  Visit our website for bios, future events and info at www.evosec.org  Like, follow and share us on Facebook and Instagram @evosecusa WE ARE PUMPED TO HAVE A NEW AFFILIATE LINK FOR ORIGIN AND JOCKO FUEL!!!  Help support this show by purchasing any of your JiuJitsu gear, Jocko Supplements, books clothing and more... link below.

Mike and Tommy tackle another Mighty Ducks Minute. This time they are looking at Minute 203, which is jam-packed. It starts with Adam Banks' near miss in the shootout and is followed but two great coach-player moments. First, Wolf Stansson and Gunnar Stahl have their moment. Then, Gordon Bombay strategizes with Julie "The Cat" Gaffney before making perhaps the boldest move of his coaching career.

It's story time with Mike! With Tommy and Kevin missing Mike relays the greatest moment that has ever occurred on the Quack Attack Discord: Hockeyroxleigh reveals how they found never-seen-before photos in the pocket of Guy Germaine's tracksuit. Mike then takes one #QuackQuestion on which Ducks should switch jersey numbers, and which jerseys need design changes.

We're all back together! Mike and Tommy dive into Kevin's newest business endeavor and why it's good for the pod. They then take a look at which Mighty Ducks would fare the best in the real estate business, and which one would be the ideal partner for Kevin. (Hint: It's not one Mike or Tommy would've guessed.) We also answer #QuackQuestion regarding Connie and Guy naming their kid after Bombay.
