7.  Guest: Hampton Sides. Cook maps the North American coast, stopping at Nootka Sound for repairs before charting Alaska. Searching for the Northwest Passage, they enter the Bering Sea. There, they encounter the "Ice Blink" and an impenetrable ice wall, disproving theories of an open polar sea and forcing a dangerous retreat.

fWotD Episode 3207: James Cook Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Saturday, 14 February 2026, is James Cook.Captain James Cook (7 November 1728 – 14 February 1779) was a British Royal Navy officer, explorer, and cartographer who led three voyages of exploration to the Pacific and Southern Oceans between 1768 and 1779. He completed the first recorded circumnavigation of the main islands of New Zealand, and led the first recorded visit by Europeans to the east coast of Australia and the Hawaiian Islands.Cook joined the British merchant navy as a teenager before enlisting in the Royal Navy in 1755. He first saw combat during the Seven Years' War, when he fought in the Siege of Louisbourg. Later in the war he surveyed and mapped much of the entrance to the St. Lawrence River during the Siege of Quebec. In the 1760s he mapped the coastline of Newfoundland and made important astronomical observations which brought him to the attention of the Admiralty and the Royal Society. This acclaim came at a pivotal moment in British overseas exploration, and it led to his commission in 1768 as commander of HMS Endeavour for the first of his three voyages. During these voyages he sailed tens of thousands of miles across largely uncharted areas, mapping coastlines, islands, and features across the globe in greater detail than previously charted – including Easter Island, Alaska, and South Georgia Island. He made contact with numerous indigenous peoples, and claimed several territories for the Kingdom of Great Britain. Renowned for exceptional seamanship and courage in times of danger, he was patient, persistent, sober, and competent, but sometimes hot-tempered. His contributions to the prevention of scurvy, a disease common among sailors, led the Royal Society to award him the Copley Gold Medal.In 1779, during his second visit to Hawaii, Cook was killed when a dispute with Native Hawaiians turned violent. His voyages left a legacy of scientific and geographical knowledge that influenced his successors well into the 20th century. Numerous memorials have been dedicated to him worldwide.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:38 UTC on Saturday, 14 February 2026.For the full current version of the article, see James Cook on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Bluesky at @wikioftheday.com.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm generative Danielle.

Plus, new pictures released Thursday show deteriorating conditions inside Mt. Edgecumbe High School in Sitka, and state lawmakers are questioning why. And, as federal investigators work to determine the probable cause of a Bering Air crash that killed 10 last year, the case is shedding light on the intricate web of factors that can lead to regional aviation disasters in Alaska.

In this episode of John Solomon Reports, we delve into the pressing issues surrounding energy production and national security as Congressman Nick Begich of Alaska joins the conversation. John discusses how the Biden administration's policies have hindered Alaska's energy industry, impacting America's ability to counteract Russian aggression. Congressman Begich emphasizes the importance of revitalizing energy production and highlights President Trump's recent actions to reverse harmful regulations that threaten economic growth.John also reveals significant news regarding the EPA's endangerment finding, which has now been rescinded, marking a big win for energy advocates. This pivotal change underscores the lack of scientific basis for claims that natural gas and carbon-based fuels pose a threat to public health, a point that aligns with Congressman Begich's insights on the energy sector.In the latter part of the show, John welcomes former House Oversight Committee Chairman Jason Chaffetz, who shares his expertise on accountability within government and current political dynamics. Additionally, author Casey Fleming discusses the alarming intelligence threats posed by China, based on extensive reporting from Jerry Dunleavy. Fleming's insights serve as a crucial reminder of the global challenges we face and the importance of being informed citizens.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

If you've ever felt like you're building something big but still wondering how to stay aligned, avoid burnout, and actually enjoy the journey… this episode is for you.In this solo episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, I'm pulling back the curtain and walking you through the real resources, tools, and experiences that can help you systematically harmonize ambition and wellbeing. From the Happy Hustle Book 2.0 and the Blissful Balancer to masterminds, community, and the deeper philosophy behind Happy Hustlin', this episode is all about giving you practical ways to create a life and business you actually love living.This conversation matters because too many entrepreneurs are chasing success without a system for sustainability. I've lived both sides burnout and balance and everything I share here comes from real lessons learned through building businesses, hosting over 700 podcast episodes, and creating a global community of heart-centered entrepreneurs who want more than just money… they want fulfillment, connection, and purpose-driven growth.One of the biggest takeaways is that alignment doesn't happen by accident it happens through intentional tools and daily practices. The Happy Hustle Book and workbook aren't just theory; they're designed to help you identify where you're out of sync and take simple action steps that move you back into balance.Another lesson is that simplicity wins. The Blissful Balancer might look basic, but tracking small actions daily creates massive momentum over time. Success isn't always about complex systems sometimes it's about consistent, visible reminders of who you want to become.We also talk about the power of community. Whether it's the Happy Hustle Club, masterminds in Montana and Alaska, or couples retreats, the magic happens when you get around people who challenge you, support you, and hold you accountable. Real growth often happens offline, in safe containers where you can take the armor off and just be real.And finally, I share why content and consistency matter. The Happy Hustle Podcast has stayed in the top 1% globally not because of vanity metrics, but because of the mission — helping people put the happy in their hustle through real conversations, practical strategies, and aligned living.If you're ready to stop chasing balance and start building it intentionally, this episode will give you a roadmap to begin.Connect with Cary!InstagramFacebookLinkedinTwitterYoutube Get a copy of his new book, The Happy Hustle, 10 Alignments to Avoid Burnout & Achieve Blissful BalanceSign up for The Journey: 10 Days To Become a Happy Hustler Online CourseApply to the Montana Mastermind Epic Camping Adventure“It's time to Happy Hustle, a blissfully balanced life you love, full of passion, purpose, and positive impact!”Episode Sponsors:If you're feeling stressed, not sleeping great, or your energy's been kinda meh lately—let me put you on to something that's been a total game-changer for me: Magnesium Breakthrough by BiOptimizers.

Dennis T from Alaska joined SA on July 29th 2014. After 40 years of searching for a solution, he was finally introduced to SA at age 52. He asked for a sponsor on day 1 and has worked his program every day since. He states that helping another sexaholic through the steps brings about the greatest connection to his Higher Power than anything else. Being used by God, on a daily basis, has changed his life and his relationships. Living free one day at a time by utterly abandoning himself to his Higher Power has given him a new way of living.  Today, Dennis speaks to us on Step 2.Reco12 is an open-to-all addictions and afflictions organization, dedicated to exploring the common threads of the differing manifestations of alcoholism; sharing tools, and offering hope from those walking a similar path.

We expected the Senate vote on H.J. Res. 140, which would overturn the 20-year mining ban protecting the BWCA, to occur this week, but it was postponed until after their upcoming recess. The vote could be as early as February 23rd. This gives us more time to contact Senators and ask them to vote no on this resolution. I've been posting plenty of resources and scripts to do this on our Instagram @outdoor.minimalist.book, but will also be including additional resources for this issue and others in our weekly newsletter at theoutdoorminimalist.com This week, we are focusing on developments in Alaska. About 60% of Alaska is public land. That's over 200 million acres. All of that land in Alaska faces immediate and intensified threats from expanded oil, gas, and mineral development and the dangers of climate change. So much is happening in that one state alone, we wanted to take the time to highlight two of the largest issues the state is facing today: the Ambler Road project and the Tongass National Forest under the Roadless Rule. To help explain the severity of these threats is lifelong Alaskan, Bjorn Dihle. Bjorn lives in Juneau with his family, where he works as a wildlife guide and freelance multimedia professional focused on conservation.

This podcast episode provides a comprehensive overview of the current meteorological conditions affecting various regions across the United States, emphasizing a marginal risk for severe thunderstorms in the Southern Plains. We meticulously detail the potential for isolated hail and gusty winds, particularly during the evening and overnight hours. Moreover, the episode highlights the risk of excessive rainfall, which may lead to broader flooding threats extending eastward over the weekend. We also caution listeners about hazardous conditions, including low water crossings along the California and Oregon coasts, as well as significant beach hazards characterized by powerful rip currents and sneaker waves. Conclusively, we urge our audience to remain vigilant and prioritize safety as we navigate these adverse weather conditions.Takeaways:* The Storm Prediction Center has issued a marginal risk for severe thunderstorms in the Southern Plains today.* Isolated hail and gusty winds are anticipated this evening and overnight in affected regions.* A broader threat of heavy rain and flooding is expected to expand eastward over the weekend.* Hazardous conditions may arise at low water crossings along the California and Oregon coasts this weekend.* Beach hazards are in effect due to sneaker waves and strong rip currents on northwest facing beaches.* A notable earthquake occurred near Ivanoff Bay, Alaska, but no tsunami alert was issued.Sources[USGS | https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/map/?extent=-89.50704%2C-547.03125&extent=89.50096%2C577.96875&listOnlyShown=true&timeZone=utc][NWS SF Bay Area | https://www.weather.gov/mtr/][NWS Los Angeles/Oxnard | https://www.weather.gov/lox/][NWS Tampa Bay | https://www.weather.gov/tbw/][NWS Melbourne | https://www.weather.gov/mlb/][USGS Event Page | https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/us6000s8ml/executive][SPC | https://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?format=txt&issuedby=DY1&product=SWO&site=JKL&version=1][NWS Portland | https://www.weather.gov/pqr/][NWS Houston/Galveston | https://www.weather.gov/hgx/][SPC Day 1 Outlook | https://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?format=txt&issuedby=DY1&product=SWO&site=JKL&version=1] This is a public episode.

Send a text Pat Pitney is the President of the University of Alaska System. Growing up in Montana, she started shooting guns at an early age. At age 18 she won a gold medal at the 1984 Olympics in Los Angeles becoming the first Olympic champion in air rifle for women. She competed on the international riflery circuit until 1988 when she married an Alaskan, relocated to Fairbanks, and started a family. She began work at the University then, and, 34 years later, she will be retiring from the University system this May. In 2014, she became the director of the office of management and budget (OMB) for Governor Bill Walker. She oversaw state finances as at a particularly turbulent time in our history and we discuss that time today as well the efforts to reform Alaska's healthcare system.

In this newscast: The state Senate will consider a bill meant to increase educational options for Alaska students who are deaf or hard of hearing; Staff from Alaska Marine Lines and the Alaska Marine Highway System discussed EV shipping safety during a panel held by Renewable Juneau, an advocacy nonprofit, yesterday; KTOO's Mike Lane sat down with Akanksha Basil to learn about her efforts to strengthen and streamline disaster response coordination in Juneau; There will now be more time to speak out on the future of the Federal Subsistence Board, which has authority over hunting and fishing on federal public lands.

On Wednesday Mark Levin Show, this debt crisis in America predates President Trump – it stems from a massive welfare state which expanded to include illegal aliens, unchecked waste, fraud, and abuse costing hundreds of billions annually, and out-of-control Marxist-socialist policies.  Congress is unable to fix this problem because Democrats want to spend even more. Unchecked fiscal irresponsibility risks economic collapse, worthless currency, stagflation, societal dislocation, and violent riots if the system fails. We need to ensure that our republic survives! Also, why are we negotiating with Iran? If Iran unexpectedly accepts all U.S. demands, an agreement might be signed, allowing the regime to survive. Failing to eliminate the Iranian regime now is unconscionable and immoral, as it will leave future generations to confront a far more dangerous Iran armed with 50,000 ballistic missiles capable of striking the entire U.S. mainland, Hawaii, and Alaska, plus nuclear warheads. Later, the House of Representatives narrowly passed the SAVE America Act requiring voter ID by a vote of 215 to 214, with Rep Thomas Massie joining with the Democrats. ID is routinely required for everyday activities like entering government buildings, courts, buying alcohol or cigarettes, renting a car, signing a lease, getting a mortgage, and more—yet Democrats oppose it for voting. Voter ID protects against fraud like illegal voting, double voting, or votes by the deceased, making it a civil rights issue where fraudulent votes dilute legitimate ones. The only reason to oppose it is to enable fraud. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Climate change isn't happening because regular people failed. It's happening because a handful of billionaires got rich by wrecking the planet and buying politicians to protect their profits. Voting matters—but it's not enough. If elections alone fixed this, fossil fuel profits wouldn't still be breaking records. Real change happens every day. In how we travel. What we buy. Who we support. What we refuse to fund. Clean energy is already the cheapest power in history. Pollution is what costs us. We can't wait for bought politicians to save us. Every choice is a vote. Every dollar is pressure. And together, we outnumber them. Promote Celtic culture through music at http://celticmusicpodcast.com/.

The primary focus of today's discussion centers on the severe weather conditions impacting various regions across the United States, with particular emphasis on the blizzard warnings currently in effect for Alaska. I delineate the perilous situation along the Bering Strait coast, where visibility has been markedly reduced, creating treacherous travel conditions. Furthermore, I address the persistent lake effect snow advisories affecting parts of central New York, which pose significant challenges during the morning commute. We also touch upon the high surf advisory in Hawaii, cautioning against strong currents that may endanger those on the east-facing shores. Additionally, I highlight the recent updates issued by FEMA concerning flood maps for Cochise County, Arizona, urging residents to familiarize themselves with the new information to better understand their flood risk.Takeaways:* Alaska currently faces severe blizzard warnings, significantly impairing visibility and travel safety.* The Great Lakes region continues to experience persistent lake effect snow, affecting morning commutes.* In Hawaii, a high surf advisory is in effect, creating hazardous conditions along east facing shores.* FEMA has issued updated flood maps for Cochise County, necessitating local residents to review their risk assessments.* The National Weather Service anticipates additional winter weather advisories for Central New York into the afternoon.* Overall, there are no significant updates from other states affecting national weather conditions today.Sources[NWS Fairbanks Blizzard Warnings | https://forecast.weather.gov/wwamap/wwatxtget.php?cwa=usa&wwa=blizzard+warning][NWS Map (example: Gambell) | https://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?lat=63.37539&lon=-171.715146][FEMA — Cochise County Flood Maps Update | https://www.fema.gov/press-release/20260211/fema-updates-flood-maps-cochise-county][NWS Honolulu — Coastal Hazard Message | https://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?issuedby=HFO&product=CFW&site=hfo][NWS (Albany text feed for advisory counties) | https://forecast.weather.gov/wwamap/wwatxtget.php?cwa=aly&wwa=winter+weather+advisory] This is a public episode.

Send us a text! We'd love to hear your thoughts on the show.If you've ever wondered what might happen if the “perfect” PTA mom had a secret life… this episode is for you.In today's conversation on The Resilient Writers Radio Show, I'm joined by women's suspense author Kendra Pecci, and we're talking about her debut novel, Focus on Deception—a deliciously fun, high-stakes story set in a world of soccer games, fundraisers, and wine moms… with a twist.Kendra introduces us to Stella Meyers, a photographer who blends right into her ritzy Connecticut suburb by day—capturing weddings, parties, and PTA events—while secretly robbing people blind at night. Stella lives for the thrill, but when an exhilarating new connection starts to make a steady paycheck (and a more “normal” life) look appealing, everything changes. A ruthless blackmailer uncovers Stella's identity and threatens her daughter, and suddenly all bets are off.Kendra describes the vibe perfectly: Ocean's 8 meets Big Little Lies with Gilmore Girls energy—and honestly? Yes. Please.We also dig into the long road it took Kendra to bring this book to life. The seed of the story came years ago, when Kendra was living in Anchorage, Alaska and spotted the president of the PTA—seemingly flawless, “the whole package.” Kendra wondered, What if this is all a ruse? And just like that, Stella was born.But here's where it gets really interesting: Kendra originally wrote Stella's story as women's fiction. She queried it back in 2011 and kept hearing the same feedback: “You've got a thriller on your hands—you need to raise the stakes.” Kendra resisted that for a long time (a decade, in fact), because she wanted to tell a story about a mom taking risks without having to “wreck” the character. Eventually, she made the difficult (and powerful) craft decision to shift the book into women's suspense—while still honoring the relationships, inner life, and emotional texture that make Stella feel so real.Kendra also shares what it was like to self-publish Focus on Deception in 2025—describing it as riding a roller coaster while building the roller coaster (and learning how to build it at the same time). We talk about the importance of deadlines, editing support, and figuring out what kind of writer you are—pantser, plotter, or (as she learned from Lewis Jorstad) a “puzzler” who uses intuitive outlining to create direction without crushing creativity.And underneath all of it is a message writers need: finishing a book is often 90% mental. There really is a path for everybody—you just have to find the one that fits your brain, your life, and your season.

Oliver Ancans is a hunter and angler who spends a lot of time in the Brooks Range and interior Alaska.

No Jeff this week (stomach bug took him out), so Matt and Tyler hold down the mic with two guests who live at the intersection of service, dogs, and the outdoors: Brian Rollison (active duty Army armor officer) and Reid Parrish (Iraq & Afghanistan vet, full-time guide) from Hero to the Line. Hero to the Line is a Texas-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit with a simple mission and a massive impact: donate well-bred Labrador retriever puppies to veterans, active duty service members, and Gold Star families—then surround them with a community that helps them train, learn, and stay connected. We talk about why a dog can be the difference between sitting on the couch and getting outside, how training creates routine, and how a “new furry best friend” can help people work through life's hardest chapters—whether that's the transition to civilian life, grief, or the weight that follows deployment. Brian shares his path from hunting doves in Virginia to chasing ducks across the country (and even a NATO rotation in Poland), and how receiving his lab Daisy changed everything. Reid breaks down how the organization grows through breeder relationships, sponsorships, and the magic of “whoopsie litters,” plus what it feels like watching recipients take that first step into the dog world—beds, food, training tips, and all. We also get into the “holy cow” moment of seeing a finished-level dog run, why hunt tests flip a switch in people, and how Hero to the Line is building a nationwide network of dog owners and veterans (from Alaska to Florida).

From voting conspiracies to vocal stims, the second week of the Rate A Queen Talent Show delivers some confusing results. Alaska and Willam discuss voting rubrics, flag waving, plate smashing, and why the girls continue to wear short and squat little gogo boots on the mainstage. The runway category this week is a little shaky as the queens pump their looks made of tinsel, zip ties, VHS tape, and evil eyes. And the Rate A Queen voting yields some interesting tops and bottoms as Athena snatches the win and Myki defends her spot in the competition.Listen to Race Chaser Ad-Free on MOM PlusFollow us on IG at @racechaserpod and click the link in bio for a list of organizations you can donate to in support of Black Lives MatterFOLLOW ALASKAhttps://twitter.com/Alaska5000https://www.instagram.com/theonlyalaska5000https://www.facebook.com/AlaskaThunderhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9vnKqhNky1BcWqXbDs0NAQFOLLOW WILLAMhttps://twitter.com/willamhttps://www.instagram.com/willamhttps://www.facebook.com/willamhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrO9hj5VqGJufBlVJy-8D1gRACE CHASER IS A FOREVER DOG PODCASTSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Ravens get a bad rap in western culture. They're an ominous symbol of death, considered “unclean” by the bible, and star in Edgar Allen Poe's haunting gothic poem, “The Raven.” A group of ravens is called an “unkindness.” What a burn. But host Nate Hegyi is on a mission to show that we should give the raven a bit more credit. It's one of the most intelligent creatures on earth — an animal that can use tools like a chimpanzee, speak like a parrot, do tricks like a dog, and investigate murders like Sherlock Holmes.  So today on the show, another edition of our ongoing series, Holy Scat: raven edition.

Margo is joined by Ashley Lohr, an artist, educator, and community builder based in Petersburg, Alaska—a small fishing island town where she has taught art for nearly two decades. Working across painting and enamel jewelry, Ashley has built a creative life rooted in place, curiosity, and long-term commitment. From sustaining robust school art programs to teaching workshops far beyond the classroom, her path is a testament to what can unfold when artists design lives that support both their work and their values. Ashley shares how moving to Alaska at 23 shaped her identity as both a teacher and artist, how she continues to grow her own practice alongside full-time teaching, and what she learned from intentionally stepping away during a self-created sabbatical. In this conversation, we discuss: Moving to Petersburg, Alaska for a teaching job—and how place can deeply shape creative alignment Teaching art in ways that feel authentic, expansive, and student-centered How Ashley builds, sustains, and evolves art programs within a school setting Maintaining a personal art practice alongside full-time teaching and family life Taking a self-designed sabbatical and what it revealed about community, creativity, and pace Teaching outside the classroom: workshops, travel, and non-gallery ways to share work Finding and proposing workshop opportunities—locally and farther afield Trusting a slow, steady creative path and allowing your work to change over time Connect with Ashley: Website: https://ashleylohrart.com Instagram: https://instagram.com/ashleylohrart Connect with Margo: Website: www.windowsillchats.com Instagram: @windowsillchats www.patreon.com/inthewindowsill https://www.yourtantaustudio.com/thefoundry

It's sounds so romantic: fed up with big city life, pack up the kids and pets and head to remote Alaska for a simplar, more family focused life. But is it? Olivia and her family trades hectic spots schedules and traffic for daily drives to fill up their home water tank and loaded up their house with 7 months of food because only road to the "big city" gets closed down for winter safety.

On Valentine's Day 1983, two new, beautiful sister ships, the Americus and the Altair sank in the Bering Sea in calm water while on their way to the king crab grounds near the Pribilof Islands. Fourteen men lost their lives in the worst disaster in the history of U.S. commercial fishing. A massive investigation ensued to determine what happened to the boats and what could be done to make commercial fishing safer. Those lost: The Americus: George Nations Brent Boles Larry Littlefield Rich Awes Victor Bass Jeff Nations Paul Northcutt The Altair: Ronald Beirnes Jeff Martin Lark Breckenridge Troy Gudbranson Randy Harvey Brad Melvin Tony Vienhage Sources: Much of this episode is based on the book Lost At Sea by Patrick Dillon. I've read this book three times, and I highly recommend it. Dillon extensively researched the losses of the Americus and Altair. He talked to fishermen, families of those lost, investigators, marine architects, and many other experts and observers. He tells a heart-felt and fact-filled story, not only about the “A” boats but about the commercial fishing industry and the politics of commercial fishing in the early 1980s. There's so much more in his book than I've told you here, and if you're like me, you won't be able to put it down once you start reading it.

Today we'll cover the state headline sin hour one, including the HUGE push for more spending in the AKLEG. Schools, pensions...everything is on the table. Then in hour two we'll talk with Joe Bishop-Henchman from the National Taxpayers Union Foundation about what would be the best tax reform we could look at in Alaska, based on what's happened in the rest of the country.

This morning, I present significant weather developments across Alaska and the contiguous United States, particularly highlighting the blizzard and winter weather advisories issued by the National Weather Service. As we navigate through perilous travel conditions and potential whiteout scenarios, it is imperative to remain vigilant, especially in areas affected by strong southerly winds and gusts reaching up to 70 mph in Southern California. Additionally, I will provide an overview of recent seismic activity, which remains minimal, with a recorded minor earthquake near Toya, Texas, that has not resulted in any reported damage. We will also discuss the updated assistance information from FEMA regarding Hurricane Helene, urging survivors to review program details and impending deadlines. Throughout this briefing, we shall continue to monitor and relay active alerts and official updates to ensure public safety and preparedness.Takeaways:* The National Weather Service has issued blizzard warnings for various regions in Alaska, indicating severe weather conditions.* California is experiencing strong southerly winds that may lead to downed limbs and hazardous travel for high-profile vehicles.* FEMA has updated its Hurricane Helene assistance page, providing essential information for survivors seeking support.* New York is under winter weather advisories due to lake effect snow, impacting travel and road conditions significantly today.* A minor earthquake was recorded in Texas, though no significant damage or impacts were reported in the area.* Active weather alerts will be monitored throughout the day to ensure public safety and awareness.Sources[NWS San Diego | https://kesq.com/weather/alerts-weather/2026/02/11/high-wind-warning-issued-february-11-at-324am-pst-until-february-11-at-100pm-pst-by-nws-san-diego-ca/][NWS Los Angeles/Oxnard — Watches/Warnings | https://www.weather.gov/lox/][NWS Fairbanks — DSS Winter | https://www.weather.gov/afg/dsswinter][NWS Juneau — Hazards | https://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?lat=59.6702&lon=-135.5379][NWS Buffalo — Advisory | https://forecast.weather.gov/showsigwx.php?product1=Winter+Weather+Advisory&warnzone=NYZ006][NWS Albany — Advisory | https://www.weather.gov/aly/winterheadlines][USGS Latest Earthquakes | https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/map/] This is a public episode.

Sporty's has just released an impressive and visually stunning new Seaplane Rating Course that features Patty Wagstaff as the lead on-camera instructor. Along with being a national aerobatic champion and popular airshow performer, Patty is an exceptional instructor and experienced Alaska seaplane pilot. Water Flying Podcast host Steve McCaughey, who was a video production consultant on the course and appears in several scenes, teams up with Patty Wagstaff and Bret Koebbe from Sporty's for a fascinating behind-the-scenes discussion of why the course is so good for both aspiring seaplane pilots and seasoned, rated pilots, and how it all came together.At multiple locations from Alaska to Florida using 15 different seaplanes, the dedicated film crew and expert trainers spent more than a year creating the video.The course was made possible with the considerable resource network of the Seaplane Pilots Association, and in recognition Sporty's is donating multiple seaplane rating scholarships to the Seaplane Foundation. The course represents a new level of cooperation between Sporty's, SPA and the Seaplane Foundation.It's worth your time to listen to Patty's, Bret's and Steve's insider talk about the most informative and entertaining seaplane training video that has ever been produced.

In this second conversation with Jon Fisch, Ophira Eisenberg and Jon settle into the daily mechanics of parenting two young kids while maintaining a working stand-up career, from navigating December birthdays, redshirting anxiety, and Malcolm Gladwell math, to the quiet shock of realizing your kid suddenly wants to walk to school alone. Fisch talks through the practical negotiations of comedy life now that bedtime matters—calling clubs to ask when he actually needs to arrive, setting a firm four-figure holiday minimum for skipping Passover, and learning how to sneak out of the house mid-Hot Wheels race without triggering tears. They compare notes on sibling dynamics as Fisch describes his daughter's recent 180 into devoted big-sister mode, reading books to her brother for an hour while grandparents watched football, and reflect on the strange intimacy of bringing a child to shows where she colors on the floor, doesn't look up once, and later proudly announces, “You were talking about me.” The episode threads through modern parenting pressure points—YouTube shorts bans, grocery store toy ambushes, American Girl's Hot Wheels crossover, and the slow realization that kids' programming is one story told with dogs, trucks, or monsters—before circling back to the moment Fisch explains why leaving for a gig feels hardest when his son suddenly has “a thousand things to say” as he's reaching for his coat.

I sit down with Colonel Edward Arntson III, who has 24 years of military service, to unpack what leadership really demands when it counts. We start with self-leadership: how you show up, how you carry yourself, and why humility isn't optional. We get into competence, intellectual curiosity, and the overlooked power of energy and tone. What you tolerate becomes the standard. Colonel Arntson shares hard-earned lessons from leading in garrison and in combat, including moments that tested his decision-making, confidence, and character. If you're building a team, leading a family, or trying to lead yourself better, this episode delivers practical takeaways you can apply immediately.More about Colonel Ed Arntson:Ed Arntson, from Buffalo Grove, Illinois, graduated from Concordia College (2002) and commissioned as a Distinguished Military Graduate infantry officer through NDSU. He led rifle and company units in Alaska, Afghanistan, and Iraq, was wounded in combat, and later served with The Old Guard, including a landmark deployment to Taji, Iraq. After CGSC and SAMS, he held planning and operations roles with 1st Cavalry Division, deployed to Korea and Baghdad, and served on the Joint Staff. He commanded 3-187 Infantry and 3rd Brigade, 1st Cavalry Division. His education includes Ranger and airborne schools. He's married with two children.CHAPTERS:00:00 Introduction05:07 The Importance of Leadership Development15:31 The Role of Feedback in Leadership27:22 The Power of Tone in Leadership41:59 The Power of Tone in Communication48:25 Building Effective Teams Through Peer Leadership52:37 The Importance of Humility and Tone in Leadership01:06:04 Early Military Career and Deployment Experiences01:21:01 Dedication and Commitment in the Military01:39:26 The Impact of 9/11 on ROTC and Military Careers01:45:54 The Importance of Physical and Mental Readiness01:52:27 A Formula for Effective Leadership02:00:06 Final Thoughts on Leadership and InspirationBecome a BPN member FOR FREE - Unlock 25% off FOR LIFE ⁠https://www.bareperformancenutrition.com/collections/performance-nutritionFOLLOW:IG: instagram.com/nickbarefitness/YT: youtube.com/@nickbarefitness
