After being in Portugal now for almost 2.5 years, we spent time on this episode reflecting on the things we'd have to give up if we ever moved back to the USA.(Hint: It's A LOT. So we did a part 1 + 2, so stay tuned for next week!)And while some things we discuss are funny, small + even, shall we say, a bit ridiculous just so we can entertain you…many of them are no joke, y'all.Serious stuff like:✅ Affordable (sometimes even FREE) healthcare, especially as we get older (ahem)✅ Personal safety - how do you go from the 7th safest country in the world to 132nd?✅ Flying to the UK to visit family in 2.5 hours and less than 100 euros round trip✅ 99% calm nervous system on most daysAnd some fun ones like:

The Zero Project Tech Forum has arrived in Africa. Steven Scott and Shaun Preece meet three innovators from Nairobi using sonar wearables, local wheelchair manufacturing, and AI-powered cardiac monitoring to reshape assistive technology on the continent. The Zero Project, a global initiative of Austria's Essl Foundation, has taken its Tech Forum to Nairobi for the first time, gathering disability-focused innovators from across Africa and beyond. Steven Scott and Shaun Preece speak with three of them who are each solving a distinct but connected problem: how to make assistive technology appropriate, affordable, and available where it is needed most. Brian Mwenda, CEO of Hope Tech, shares the decade-long journey behind the Sixth Sense, a shoulder-worn device that uses sonar and haptic feedback to alert blind and visually impaired users to obstacles at chest height and above. Designed to look like a pair of headphones resting on the shoulders, it pairs with existing white cane technique and works alongside guide dogs rather than replacing them. The device can be customised for different types of sight loss, including tunnel vision and peripheral vision loss, and connects to a smartphone app for turn-by-turn navigation. Brian also talks about Census Hub, the Nairobi-based innovation space his team has built to support other assistive tech developers across Africa. Colman Ndetembea, co-founder and CEO of Kyaro Assistive Tech, explains how his Tanzanian social enterprise manufactures wheelchairs and rehabilitation equipment to World Health Organization quality standards. With 45 products, over 2,000 devices distributed since 2021, and distribution reaching Kenya, Uganda, and Malawi, Kyaro is addressing a stark reality: 90 per cent of people in need of a wheelchair on the continent still cannot access one. Colman shares the story of Aidan, a child who received a Kyaro wheelchair in 2021 after nine months homebound following an amputation, and who has since qualified for the wheelchair tennis World Cup. Gerrishon Sirere, co-founder of Hoptics, introduces CardioGuard, an AI-powered cardiovascular monitoring platform designed for preventive healthcare. Currently in beta testing with a hardware wearable and an active pilot along the Kenyan coast, CardioGuard gives clinicians a way to monitor patients remotely and provides people with disabilities, who often cannot physically reach a healthcare facility, with real-time alerts and health recommendations. The platform has been through clinical validation research with the University of Toronto. Relevant Links

Accessibility in herbalism is not something extra or something nice-if-possible, it's a critical part of our work. The prices of the remedies we recommend can sometimes be a determining factor in whether our clients take them, or take them long enough to get results. In many cases we can identify less expensive herbs, or formulae of herbs, which can do the job of more costly ones. In order to make an effective substitution, we first need to clarify the qualities, actions, affinities, and other aspects of the herb for which we seek alternatives. Only then can we identify a good substitute.This episode includes thoughts and examples of potential substitutes for solomon's seal (Polygonatum biflorum), kava (Piper methysticum), Asian ginseng (Panax ginseng), dong quai (Angelica sinensis), teasel (Dipsacus fullonum), arnica (Arnica montana), chaga (Inonotus obliquus), goldenseal (Hydrastis canadensis), and schisandra (Schisandra chinensis).This is material we dig into deeply in our Accessible Herbalism course. That course is full of strategies and skills which enable herbalists to offer top-quality care to people who have constraints on their finances, time, energy, or community of support. It helps you understand the truth behind some of hte most common money-saving suggestions about herbalism and nutrition, so you can offer realistic suggestions which actually help people who need it most.Like everything we offer, it's a self-paced online video course. It comes with lifetime access to current & future course material, the twice-weekly live Q&A sessions with us, open discussion threads integrated in each lesson, an active student community, study guides, quizzes & capstone assignments, and more!If you enjoyed the episode, it helps us a lot if you subscribe, rate, & review our podcast wherever you listen.

Following the Tick Report, Robert updates us on Trump's pattern in Iran of threatening escalation and then pulling back. Wisconsin unveiled its new procedures for dealing with BadgerCare work requirements in the Big Ugly Bill. But the Trump/Kennedy HHS's last minute changes to the final rule makes it much worse than the language of the bill, risking coverage for people with serious conditions such as life threatening cancer. With health care at risk for hundreds of thousands of Wisconsinites, including people too frail to work, is Wisconsin prepared? We revisit the last minute budget gimmick engineered by the big hospital lobby, Evers, and Vos but disallowed by the Trump Regime. We dive into a new Brookings Report finding 45.5% of U.S. households did not earn enough to make ends meet. The report concludes that moving the needle on affordability requires action on both sides of the equation: lowering costs of living and dramatically increasing household incomes. We preview 4 newly scheduled $20 Wage Town Halls in Fond du Lac, Madison, and two in the Milwaukee area We close with an in-depth interview with Bryan Rogers, the environmental justice director at Milwaukee's Walnut Way. Bryan, who is a regular podcast listener, tells us more about Walnut Way and discusses why they are co-hosting a governor candidate forum on Saturday, June 27th, 10am at North Division High School. Bryan explains why their members are so deeply involved in fighting climate change and higher utiilty costs that fall disproportionally on predominantly Black neighborhoods in Milwaukee.

De Clarke / Cortes Currents - My assumption is that we will, at some point in time, see a fire on Cortes of a severity that will flabbergast the population. It may not happen this year, and it may not happen in 10 years, but the conditions are getting very, very bad. That is what Mike Brown, volunteer fire fighter and long time Cortes resident, had to say at the May 3rd meeting on Emergency Preparedness in the Pioneer Room. At that thinly-attended meeting, SRD emergency services staffer Sarah Rosen gave a presentation on emergency preparedness for individuals and households. As part of her presentation she reviewed potential emergencies in our local area. Cortes Island is fortunate to be sheltered from tsunamis; earthquakes are rare in BC; the island has no rivers to flood or dams to burst (unlike Campbell River, where the hydro power dam is currently undergoing seismic safety renovations). The island has no hazardous chemical plants or huge fuel dumps. The one serious disaster-grade risk to the Cortes community is wildfire.

Escaping the cubicle starts with a simple shift: stop building someone else's dream and start building your own. Julia Hurley is a top real estate broker, investor, NIL and business consultant, and founder of Just Homes Group Brokerage. She helps professionals move beyond the 9-to-5 grind by building smarter systems, stronger operations, and businesses designed for real freedom. Her own leap into real estate began with a mentorship moment over a decade ago. Since then, she's become a multi-million-dollar producer with a clear belief: she's a maker of dreams, not a 9-to-5er. In this episode, Julia shares how to move from a cubicle mindset into entrepreneurial ownership. She talks about facing the fear of starting, building systems around your lifestyle, finding mentors who push you, and creating a brand built to last through market shifts. Tune in for a practical conversation about freedom, resilience, and building a business on your own terms. Key Takeaways: Redefine Your Professional Identity. Real career freedom starts when you stop thinking like an employee and start building like an owner. Find Mentors Who Stretch You. Growth moves faster when you learn from people operating at a higher level, especially when you bring value to the relationship first. Build for Profit, Not Just Revenue. A strong business needs smart backend systems that protect margins and support long-term growth. Look for Local Opportunities. Some of the best advantages come from community needs, local market gaps, and regulations others overlook. Move From Learning to Action. Breaking into a competitive industry takes more than research. At some point, you have to execute. Build Relationships That Last. Long-term success comes from real connections with local stakeholders, not short-term, transactional networking.   Listen to the full conversation here: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@risingtidestartups Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/rising-tide-startups/id1330525474 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2eq7unl70TRPsBhjLEsNZR Connect with Julia: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/juliahurley/ Website: https://www.justhomesgroup.com/juliahurley/ Closing thought: "Approach every room with a giving mindset; that is how you earn an open door and a permanent seat at the table."

In this week's episode, host Daniel Raimi brings in Margaret Walls and Yanjun (Penny) Liao to discuss why homeowners insurance prices and nonrenewals are increasing in the United States—and how insurers, homeowners, and state and federal governments are responding. Walls is a senior fellow at Resources for the Future (RFF), director of RFF's Climate Risk and Resilience Program, and co-host of Resources Radio, while Liao is an RFF fellow. Together, they elaborate on data they shared in the most recent issue of Resources magazine that links areas with previous weather-related property loss to higher premiums and policy nonrenewal rates. As a result, while climate change increases the severity and frequency of extreme weather, many homeowners are left without insurance plans that provide adequate coverage, especially in vulnerable regions such as California and Florida. Walls and Liao analyze why solutions such as “insurance of last resort” plans in the residual market fail to keep up with heightened risk, and where policymakers and communities might look next to support households that are impacted by wildfires, floods, storms, and other disasters across the country.

Today: Affordable rental housing could be coming to long-vacant lots across Mansfield, as a developer’s plan for scattered-site homes moves one step closer to reality.Support the show: https://richlandsource.com/membersSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Affordable multifamily housing is one of the most urgent design and development challenges in the U.S., but the reasons it remains so difficult to build go far beyond simple supply and demand. In this episode of I Hear Design, Robert Nieminen speaks with Peter Bafitis, managing principal at RKTB Architects, and Alex Brito, principal and leader of the firm's affordable housing studio, about the forces shaping the housing crisis today—from approvals, zoning, financing, and public-private partnerships to construction costs, sustainability mandates, and the realities of building in New York City. The conversation also explores a larger idea: affordable housing as community infrastructure, not just real estate. Peter and Alex discuss why good affordable housing should be designed with the same care and dignity as market-rate housing, how durability and timelessness matter in projects meant to serve neighborhoods for decades, where office-to-residential conversions genuinely make sense, and why smaller “missing middle” projects may be just as important as large-scale developments in addressing the shortage. This episode is the first in the two-part series Designing the Foundations of Community.

Tyler Anbinder traces the migration of Irish families beyond New York City. The Lynch family, for instance, saved money for a decade before moving to Minnesota to establish farms on affordable government land, creating vibrant Irishenclaves in the wilderness. In the West, Irish immigrant Edmund Butler became a prominent military figure, leading troops against Crazy Horse after the Battle of Little Bighorn. In California, the Ruddick family moved from gold mining into real estate, eventually becoming successful landlords. These stories emphasize the resourcefulness of the famine Irish, who repeatedly adapted and started new businesses when faced with failure. (7)1863 DRAFT RIOTS

Lt. Colonel Marvin Suber Williams, a highly decorated U.S. Air Force veteran with nearly thirty years of combined military leadership and senior federal service, is running as a Republican candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives in New York's 4th Congressional District, a crucial swing region encompassing parts of Nassau County and Long Island. Raised in a working-class New York family after being born at the Naval Hospital in Manhattan and raised in Brooklyn's Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood, Williams positions his 2026 congressional campaign as a direct solution for voters seeking an outsider who values personal responsibility over partisan political games. His economic platform aggressively targets inflation and the rising cost of living on Long Island, advocating for lower taxes on middle-class families, the preservation of the crucial State and Local Tax deduction, and a halt to reckless federal spending in Washington. Emphasizing public safety and national security, his platform aligns closely with traditional conservative principles, focusing on strong support for law enforcement, strict criminal justice accountability, securing the southern border with physical barriers, and enforcing the deportation of criminal illegal aliens. Drawing heavily from his experience as an operational military leader and Chief Academic Officer, Williams champions deep reforms for the Department of Veterans Affairs, enhanced cyber defense, and an ironclad foreign policy that includes standing firmly with democratic allies like Israel. As voters across the district evaluate candidates for the primary and the November 2026 general election, the Marvin Williams for Congress movement aims to build a broad coalition of New Yorkers dedicated to fiscal responsibility, safe communities, and constitutional limits on government power, inviting grassroots support through campaign donations and volunteer participation. WEB: https://marvinforcongress.com/ ABOUT: Lt. Colonel Marvin Williams is a visionary military leader, executive strategist, and premier keynote speaker with a proven track record of driving operational excellence in high-stakes environments. Throughout a distinguished career spanning more than twenty years in the United States military, Lt. Col.

Learn whether manufactured homes could be your path to homeownership and how to get ahead of a tax bill from your investments. Could a decades-old federal rule be standing between you and an affordable home? Hosts Sean Pyles, CFP®, and Elizabeth Ayoola are joined by senior news editor Rick VanderKnyff, along with mortgage writers Abby Badach Doyle and Kate Wood, to explore whether manufactured homes could offer a real path to homeownership for buyers priced out of the traditional market. They dig into how modern manufactured homes have changed, why the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act is drawing renewed attention to an obscure chassis rule from 1976, and what you need to know about financing, appreciation, and whether these homes are finally having their rebrand moment. Then, investing and taxes editor Bella Avila helps answer a listener's question about how to handle a growing tax bill from investment income. They discuss how taxable accounts can trigger unexpected tax bills, how to decide between adjusting your W-4 and making estimated tax payments, and why strategies like stashing money in a HYSA or CD might not work out the way you'd hope. During this episode, data cited about manufactured home relocation rates was attributed to the Pew Research Center.

Welcome to June, it's Pride Month! We encourage our listeners to RSVP to Citizen Action's Annual Meeting this Saturday, at 10am. Robert gives us the latest tick report amid national concern about tick-borne illnesses. Spurred by global warming, tick activity continues to surge in Wisconsin while the national media descends on Martha Vineyard as the island is beset by ticks, and victims are forced to avoid red meat. Trump visits Western Wisconsin, the home of Wisconsin's pivotal Congressional District 3. Is he an anchor on embattled MAGA incumbent Derrick Van Orden and other Republicans on the ballot or does Trump know how to generate a massive turnout of MAGA voters? We dive into a critically important Wisconsin Health Assessment, a periodic report mandated by the State Legislature.Rarely do such radical findings come from an official state government report. This year's report finds that a stunning 1 in 10 Wisconsinites skipped needed health care due to cost. The report also contains shocking revelations on low wages, the growing unaffordability of housing, massive under investment in public education (especially in low income BIPOC majority schools), and a chronic under investment in public health. Will the next legislature act on this searing indictment of status quo policies or kick the can down the road? MASH union president Peter Rickman joins us to discuss the state health assessment, building worker power, and to update us on newly scheduled $20 Wage Town Halls in Fond du Lac, Madison, Milwaukee, Sheboygan, and more locations. We close with news that Boss Vos vows to try again on the failed surplus budget deal. With Governor Evers continuing to complain about the failure of the first effort, will they get another kick at the cat?
