In December 2019, Lisa and Simon Thomas left their motorcycles and gear in the United States, planning to return after a short trip home to the UK. More than six years later, those bikes are still there — and their lives have gone in a very different direction. This episode lives in the space between what was planned and what actually happened. We talk about building a life around long-term travel, what happens when health intervenes, and the emotional cost of stopping after years on the move. Lisa and Simon share what it's like to lose — and rebuild — identity, confidence, and purpose when the thing that defines you suddenly disappears. And through it all, we explore why motorcycles still matter.

Recorded during a Drifter Trip to Los Locos, this episode features a late-night conversation with legendary guide Arno Matthee. We talk about milkfish, giant trevally, pirate encounters, mothership expeditions, and the lessons learned from exploring fisheries with no roadmap. It's a conversation about curiosity, patience, and why a successful day on the water isn't about numbers—but about the feeling. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The Mongol Rally is a one-of-kind intercontinental car race, the "greatest motoring adventure on the planet" according to the organizers. Participants must drive from London to eastern Russia, across Mongolia, in a small engine car (1000-1200cc) at their own pace and their own peril. Radio producer and friend-of-the-show Scott Gurian survived the 11,000 mile journey in his tiny, 1 liter car and joins us to talk about it. Sign up for the Mongolian Rally here.

In the December 2025 edition of Apple Crunch, hosts Thomas Domville (AnonyMouse) and John Gassman wrap up the year with a wide-ranging discussion covering AppleVis community awards, Apple's own App Store recognitions, major Apple hardware and business news, and an accessibility-focused app pick to close out the month.The episode begins with a deep dive into the AppleVis Golden Apples Awards for 2025. Thomas explains the nomination criteria and selection process before announcing this year's winners. PixieBot takes top honors as Best App of the Year, praised for its rapid adoption of new AI models and especially its standout video description capabilities. Adventure of Faith earns Best Game of the Year for its fully accessible RPG design and highly engaged developers, while the PixieBot developer is recognized as Best Developer of the Year for consistent community involvement and innovation. The prestigious David Goodwin Lifetime Achievement Award goes to Aira, recognizing its long-standing global impact in providing visual assistance to blind and low-vision users. Runner-ups across categories, including Ally, InnerSearch AI, Art of Fauna, Land of Livia, and Weather Gods, are also discussed in detail.From there, the conversation shifts to Apple's own 2025 App Store Awards, focusing on the Cultural Impact category. Art of Fauna and Be My Eyes are highlighted as winners, with discussion around why Apple may have chosen to spotlight these apps as examples of accessibility, inclusion, and broader social awareness.The second half of the show turns to Apple news and rumors. Thomas and John examine troubling reports about the iPhone Air, including its dramatic 47 percent resale value drop within ten weeks and what that says about consumer demand and pricing strategy. They also revisit ongoing rumors surrounding the iPhone Fold, expressing skepticism about its rumored $2,400 price point and questioning whether it risks becoming another niche, luxury product. The Vision Pro receives similar scrutiny, with discussion of sharply reduced marketing, low unit sales, and signs that Apple may already be shifting focus away from the headset.This leads into a broader conversation about Apple's leadership, including rumors that Tim Cook may step down. While acknowledging his many successes—particularly Apple silicon—the hosts debate whether recent missteps in AI, hardware pricing, and product strategy signal that Apple may be ready for a new era.The episode concludes with AnonyMouse's App Pick for December 2025: Mona 7 for Mastodon. Thomas discusses Mona's long history as a highly accessible social networking client, the mixed community reaction to its move to a subscription model, and why it remains a strong option despite controversy.Hosted ByThomas Domville (AnonyMouse) John GassmanCrunchy TopicsGolden Apples Spotlight — Celebrating Accessibility Excellence Apple's Cultural Impact Awards Apple News Bytes and Rumors Leadership Shift — Is Tim Cook Nearing the Exit AnonyMouse App Pick of the MonthResourcesGolden Apples Spotlight — Celebrating Accessibility ExcellenceAppleVis Announces Winners of the 2025 Golden Apple Awards https://applevis.com/blog/applevis-announces-winners-2025-golden-apple-awards…

Despite winter weather and power outages the River Rambler is back and I'm joined by Nate Devol for the first episode of the year. We discuss is his life on the 45th parallel, the fun of rear wheel drive trucks, winter skis and summer boats, movie influences and the start to his fishing journey, learning spey, community outreach, coffee and leather craft, Kimsquit Bay, and so much more.

Sean Bothelio shares how he transformed from a scared 23-year-old father into a man who raised two confident sons who followed him into military service. After 30 years in the Air Force, Sean reveals the intentional decisions he and his wife Kim made to create a home where their sons' friends felt so safe that over 100 teenagers gathered there during a tragedy. He discusses the critical role of building confidence in children, why he encourages young men to consider military service, how to raise kids who can be "dropped anywhere in the world and thrive," and the profound difference between being a father and a grandfather. Sean's story proves that fatherhood isn't just about your own kids—it's a posture that impacts every young person who enters your home.Guest Links:LinkedIn---------Transform Your Body with Ned & RUK Fitness: RUK FitnessThis episode is sponsored by The Adventure of FatherhoodOrder The Adventure of Fatherhood children's book hereCheck out the TEDx----------Want to learn more about The Adventure of Fatherhood?https://www.adventureoffatherhood.com/https://www.rebelandcreate.com/Each week Ned sits down with a dad and asks him to open up his field notes and share with other men who find themselves on the Adventure of Fatherhood.

Denisa Krásná, scholar, author, and adventurer from the Czech Republic, takes us on a journey into the world of women in extreme sports.

I heard it's hard to get a reservation near the Great Wall," Lian asked seriously, frowning.Zh: 智慢悠悠地放下茶杯，微微一笑。“连，我们去长城是为了探索，不是去享受酒店的。”En: Zhi slowly put down the teacup and smiled slightly. "Lian, we're going to the Great Wall to explore, not to enjoy hotels."Zh: 连的眉头皱得更紧了。“但我不想旅途中出差错。”En: Lian's frown deepened. "But I don't want any mishaps on the trip."Zh: “但是，”智打断她，“有些意外也是旅行的一部分。我们去感受自由，而不是被计划束缚。”En: "But," Zhi interrupted her, "some unexpected events are also a part of traveling. We're going to experience freedom, not be bound by plans."Zh: 连沉默了一会儿，看着智，心里开始动摇。“可是，我担心会出问题。”En: Lian was silent for a moment, watching Zhi, beginning to waver. "But I'm worried things might go wrong."Zh: 智这时坐直了身子，认真地说道：“我们可以妥协。你安排好基本行程，我负责一些惊喜活动，怎样？”En: Zhi then sat up straight and said seriously, "We can compromise. You handle the basic itinerary, and I'll take care of some surprise activities, how about that?"Zh: 连思索着，手指轻轻敲打着桌面。En: Lian pondered, gently tapping her fingers on the table.Zh: 这个提议让她有些不安，但又感受到了一丝兴奋。En: This proposal made her a bit uneasy, but she also felt a hint of excitement.Zh: 她点了点头。“好吧，我们试试这样。”En: She nodded. "Alright, let's try it this way."Zh: 智露出了宽心的微笑。En: Zhi gave a reassuring smile.Zh: 两人相视而笑，心情逐渐放松下来。En: They exchanged smiles, gradually relaxing.Zh: 决定后的氛围轻松了很多。En: The atmosphere lightened a lot after the decision.Zh: 连开始讲述她对长城的期待，智则分享了许多即兴想法。En: Lian began to share her expectations for the Great Wall, while Zhi shared many spontaneous ideas.Zh: 茶壶里的茶水喝完了，计划也逐渐成型。En: The teapot was emptied, and the plan gradually took shape.Zh: 最后，连笑着说：“这次或许会是一次难忘的旅程。”En: Finally, Lian smiled and said, "This might be an unforgettable trip."Zh: 智点点头：“是啊，我们一起期待。”En: Zhi nodded, "Yes, let's look forward to it together."Zh: 在这温暖的茶屋里，两个人的友谊更加稳固。En: In the warmth of the chayu, their friendship became even stronger.Zh: 连学会了享受些许意外的乐趣，而智也体会到了计划的重要性。En: Lian learned to enjoy a bit of the unexpected, while Zhi also understood the importance of planning.Zh: 期待着他们的长城之旅，为即将到来的春节增添了别样的色彩。En: Their anticipation for their Great Wall trip added a unique color to the upcoming Spring Festival.

Edward H. Muñoz rose from humble beginnings as a first-generation Mexican American in a South Texas border town to build a 33-year career at Celanese, where he played a key role in transforming the company into a global leader in engineering materials. After earning a chemistry degree from the University of Texas at Austin, he joined Celanese during its pivot from fibers to high-value engineering resins and helped establish its polyacetal product as a serious competitor to industry giants like DuPont and GE. His journey included navigating corporate takeovers, leading multinational teams, confronting cultural bias, and accepting personal sacrifices, particularly the strain his ambition placed on family life. A near-fatal car accident that killed a close friend became a defining turning point, propelling him into international leadership roles and reshaping both his career trajectory and personal life. In this episode of Marketer of the Day, Edward Muñoz reflects on his legacy through his memoir Challenges, Triumphs, and Heroes: Memoirs of My Celanese Odyssey, which honors the people behind corporate success while capturing the human cost of leadership. He discusses his work in Germany and Mexico, his commitment to inclusive leadership, and the lessons learned from balancing ambition, culture, and responsibility. Now living with Parkinson's disease, he remains active through photography, travel, and leadership within the arts community, helping an organization not only survive the pandemic but grow significantly. Key takeaways include the importance of resilience, values-driven leadership, preserving personal history, and leaving something meaningful behind for future generations. Quotes: “The hardest challenge was balancing ambition with family. You gain a career, but you pay a price, and you have to decide what you are willing to give up.” “I am an American. That moment taught me how perception works and how easily people define others before they listen.” “You are not going to be around forever, so you have to leave something behind that others can learn from.” “When I think I might get fired, I remember this: I was looking for a job when I got here.” Resources: Connect with Edward H.

In this week's Fit Father Project Podcast, Episode 271, Dr. Anthony Balduzzi sits down with FFP member Herman Ramos. Herman is a 55-year-old father from New Jersey who transformed his health after realizing that staying “active” wasn't enough anymore. As weight slowly crept up and energy declined, Herman made a commitment to strength, structure, and long-term vitality — not for aesthetics, but for his family and future generations.Herman shares how simple, repeatable habits like intermittent fasting, two daily “perfect plates,” hydration strategies, and metabolic resistance training helped him lose over 20 pounds, shrink his waistline, and rebuild strength in his 50s. Along the way, he reflects on the emotional weight of watching his parents' health decline — and how that became fuel to rewrite his own aging story.This episode goes beyond workouts and nutrition. It's a conversation about brotherhood, discipline, fatherhood, and why men over 40 don't need perfection — they need consistency, community, and a purpose bigger than themselves.Key TakeawaysStrength after 50 requires structure, not intensityWeight loss becomes simpler when nutrition is predictableTwo “perfect plates” beats calorie obsessionWeekly 40-hour fasting as a powerful fat-loss leverHydration as a craving-control strategyMetabolic resistance training for strength, stamina, and longevityTracking workouts to see progress you feel but might missWaist size as a better metric than scale weightCommunity accountability multiplies resultsFathers train not just for themselves, but for family legacyRepurposing weakness into strength (the walker story)Consistency over perfection wins long termTry out The Fresh-Pressed Olive Oil Club for a buck!Go to http://go.getfreshfitfather.com to enroll in the Fresh-Pressed Olive Oil Club, pay just $1 to help cover shipping costs, and receive a complimentary full-size bottle ($39 value) of one of the greatest olive oils T.J. has ever discovered.

From growing up without modern technology to teaching English, raising children, exploring archaeology, flying planes, riding motorcycles, and living alone on the land she loves for over three decades, my 87-year-old Grandma Bernie reflects on the choices that shaped her life and the lessons she’s still learning. I sit down with her on the Kansas farm she’s called home for decades. What unfolds is an honest, curious, and adventurous conversation about independence, love, regret, science, nature, and what it really means to live a full life. This episode is all about resilience, questioning what we think we know and some of the most powerful advice you may hear today "don't hate. grab life and go!"

Episode Summary:One day after the shock attack on Caracas, Nick returns with an update on the US intervention in Venezuela. With President Maduro reportedly abducted and Donald Trump promising to "run Venezuela," we delve into the grim logistics of occupying a nation larger than France.Drawing parallels with the Boer War, Vietnam, and the disastrous invasion of Iraq in 2003, Nick argues that while the US may have the firepower to win a battle, it lacks the numbers, the political will, and the institutional memory to win the peace. Has the Trump administration purged the very experts who would have warned against such a folly? And will this act of imperial hubris mark the moment American hard power finally collapses under its own weight?Key Topics:The Logistical Nightmare: Why occupying Venezuela would require hundreds of thousands of troops.Trump's "Quiet Part Out Loud": The explicit goal of seizing oil resources.Asymmetric Warfare: How drones and insurgency could bleed an occupying force dry.Institutional Memory Loss: The danger of purging the State Department and Pentagon of dissenting voices.Plus: A new announcement about Patreon!

Etna Rosso is sometimes referred to as the “Burgundy of the Mediterranean” and for good reason. This wine, made on the slopes of Mt. Etna in Sicily from the grape Nerello Mascalese, is a serious gastronomic wine, loved by sommeliers and wine nerds for its complexity, depth, acidity, and firm tannic structure. While it is not quite at the level of demand as Barolo, Brunello, or Aglianico, just give it some time. Nerello Mascalese is an up-and-coming grape whose parentage includes Sangiovese - that's right, the same grape in Brunello and Chianti - and it makes powerful wines that have a lot of aging potential. In fact, we thought both of the wines we tasted and reviewed in this episode could age for a while before they are truly at their prime, and need some good decanting to really open-up. Plus, if you are a White Lotus fan and remember the season where they were in Sicily, in one of the episodes they went to a winery and drank Etna Rosso and Etna Bianco (which just happens to be the subject of our episode next week!).

Cody Weber and a small group of experienced motorcycle riders set out on a planned day ride near Green River, Utah, traveling through canyon country, dry riverbeds, and remote desert terrain. The ride appeared well prepared: riders who knew each other, a route that seemed manageable, and time taken beforehand to organize motorcycles, gear, supplies, and navigation.What unfolded next isn't unusual in the world of adventure motorcycling. Terrain gets misread, bikes go down, and riders get injured—especially in remote environments like Utah's canyonlands. What makes this story worth paying attention to is not the crash itself, but what happened afterward.In the minutes and hours following the accident, a series of decisions were made under pressure, shaped by limited information, physical injury, environmental conditions, and the realities of being far from help. Those decisions made sense at the time—but they also raise important questions about risk assessment, group dynamics, emergency response, and decision-making in remote motorcycle travel.This story offers practical lessons for riders who travel off-road and in isolated areas: what to consider after a crash, how judgment can shift under stress, and what might be done differently when plans unravel. It's a reminder that preparation doesn't end when the ride begins—and that the most critical moments often come after everything goes wrong.
