Robert Hansen, better known as the "Butcher Baker," is one of the most notorious serial killers in Alaska and one of the most disturbing predators in American true crime history. During the 1970s and early 1980s, Hansen abducted women from Anchorage, flew them into the remote wilderness along the Knik River, and hunted them through the Alaskan backcountry before murdering them. His killing spree finally came to an end after the courageous escape of 17-year-old Cindy Paulson, whose determination helped unravel a case that had baffled investigators for years.In this episode of Crime Off the Grid, retired National Park Rangers Tara and Nancy examine the crimes of Robert Hansen, the FBI profile that pointed investigators toward an unlikely suspect, and the role Alaska's vast wilderness played in both concealing and ultimately exposing his horrific crimes. Join us as we explore one of the most chilling Alaska true crime cases ever investigated and the dark history hidden in one of America's most breathtaking landscapes.Listener discretion is advised. This episode contains discussions of murder, sexual violence, and other disturbing crimes.Sources:https://lelandhale.com/butcherbaker/wordpress/2017/11/07/sherry-morrow-found-autopsy/ https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/1536504218776961 https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2014/08/22/alaska-serial-killer-dies/14426941/ https://www.strangeoutdoors.com/true-crime-in-the-outdoors/category/Robert+Hansen https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Hansen#Murders_and_capture https://murderpedia.org/male.H/h/hansen-robert.htmSupport the show!For bonus content join our Patreon!patreon.com/CrimeOfftheGridFor a one time donation:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/cotgFor more information about the podcast, check outhttps://crimeoffthegrid.com/Check out our Merch!!  https://in-wild-places.square.site/s/shopFollow us on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/crimeoffthegridpodcast/ and  (1) Facebook

Every once in a while you meet someone who's built something not in a boardroom, but in the places where it actually gets used. This week's guest is Don Goode, founder of Backcountry Bistro, a company that started with one simple goal: make freeze-dried meals that hunters and outdoorsmen actually look forward to eating after a long day in the outdoors.What started as an idea while in the backcountry of Alaska has grown into a business serving hunters across the country, but the mission hasn't changed. We talk about his family's recent move to Washington State, the opportunities and challenges that come with starting over in a new place, and we dive into some classic Alaska backcountry hunting stories that every hunter can appreciate.Then, in true hunting fashion, plans changed at the last minute. Just before this episode aired, Don found himself boarding a plane back to Alaska—not to work, but to hand-deliver meals to a remote hunt camp before joining a caribou hunt of his own. That meant trading the Washington bear hunt we talked about for another unforgettable Alaskan adventure.If you're getting ready for hunting season, Don also has a limited run of Backcountry Bistro meals available right now while supplies last, with more inventory on the way as the season progresses.Whether you're planning an elk hunt out West, dreaming about Alaska, or just looking for better camp food this fall, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.So settle in, turn the volume up, and join us for another great conversation right here on the Under Pressure Outdoors Podcast.Backcountry Bistro Hang Free Use code PRESSURE10 at checkout for 10% off your next order!

Terry Anderson, editor of Adapt and Be Adept: Market Responses to Climate Change, presents a collection of economic and social essays arguing that market-based adaptation is the most practical and effective response to a changing climate. Using Pascal's Wager as a framework, Anderson suggests that preparing for climate impacts is a winning strategy regardless of the underlying causes. A major focus is the physical and economic limits of renewable energy; the book asserts that wind, solar, and battery storage are currently far too expensive and inefficient to replace fossil fuels, which remain the backbone of global specialization and prosperity. Anderson criticizes "top-down" political solutions like carbon taxes and "climate clubs," arguing they often devolve into disguised protectionism—a "bootleggers and baptists" scenario where special interests hide behind environmental rhetoric to secure subsidies or tariffs. Instead, the book promotes "price discovery" through financial and insurance markets as a way to harmonize human behavior with environmental reality. For example, when insurance rates accurately reflect the risk of storm surges, property values in coastal areas like Florida naturally adjust, incentivizing people to move to safer, higher ground. The text also highlights the importance of local knowledge, citing Alaskan native villages where traditional adaptation strategies are frequently hindered by rigid federal regulations that prevent them from following migrating wildlife. Contributors, including Mark Mills and Bjørn Lomborg, advocate for pragmatism over utopianism, suggesting that funds should be spent on tangible improvements like seawalls, better data collection, and poverty reduction rather than inefficient attempts to halt global climate shifts through government mandates.

In this bizarre and wildly entertaining episode, host Walter Sterling and legendary journalist Ross Coulthart dive into the deepest corners of the unknown. Discover the chilling legend of the Kandahar Giant—a 12-foot, 1,100-pound, red-haired beast allegedly killed by the US military in an Afghan cave and secretly flown to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. We also explore a mysterious, gelatinous "golden egg" found two miles deep off the Alaskan coast and unravel the terrifying pattern of disappearing US scientists with top-tier nuclear clearance. 

In this TAPE classic, Trace tackles a transportation problem of his own creation by figuring out just how many chihuahuas it would take to complete the Iditarod, the legendary dogsled race across hundreds of miles of Alaskan wilderness, forcing him to confront the limits of canine endurance, logistics, and plain old common sense. Meanwhile, Julian investigates whether AI can help cook an egg, only to discover that turning a simple breakfast into a prompt-driven exercise may be far more complicated than cracking a shell.QUESTIONSTrace: "How many chihuahuas would it take to complete the Iditarod?" from LorenJulian: "How many ChatGPT queries would I need to cook an egg?” from AJDo you have an absurd question?

Fred from the Subarctic Alaska Sasquatch YouTube channel is back with three unsettling reports from remote Alaska. The first two occurred independently on the Fourth of July along the same long stretch of road on the Kenai Peninsula near Soldotna.Traveling from opposite directions, Leslie and Rusty each reported seeing a large figure step into the roadway. Rusty, who was towing a trailer, claimed he watched the figure strike a spruce grouse onto the pavement, retrieve the bird, glance toward the approaching traffic, and disappear into the timber.Fred then shares a far more aggressive encounter from the winter of 1987. John Sr. and John Jr. were traveling by snowmachine to a relative's isolated cabin near the Mulchatna caribou herd when they noticed a massive, humanlike figure covered in hair. The creature reportedly threw objects, watched the hunters through a cabin window, damaged the generator shed, and destroyed an exterior light. After darkness fell, something began pounding against the cabin walls.At first light, the two men abandoned the cabin and headed for home.The figure allegedly followed them near the trail, forcing the hunters to fire warning shots as they escaped across the snow. When they later told their relatives what had happened, the damage around the cabin offered physical support for at least part of their story.Fred also explores why reports of the “hairy man” are often treated very differently in isolated Alaskan communities, where encounters with unknown figures in the wilderness may be accepted as part of life rather than dismissed as folklore.Subarctic Alaska Sasquatch YouTube Channel Email BrianJoin Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.Have you had a Bigfoot encounter, Sasquatch sighting, Dogman experience, or other cryptid or paranormal encounter?

We are living through a fundamental shift in how businesses operate, compete, and create value. The Pirate Street Journal, hosted by Christopher, Eddie, and Bri, breaks down three major business stories through the category design lens, revealing a common thread that most mainstream business coverage misses entirely. That thread is AI data, and how the companies and individuals who understand it best are quietly rewriting the rules of entire industries. From energy infrastructure to ice cream shops to management consulting, the signal is clear and growing louder. This is just one of the topics that Pirates Christopher Lochhead, Eddie Yoon and Bri Clark discuss on this episode of Pirate Street Journal. Each week, the Category Pirates pick three headlines worth paying attention to and break down the category underneath. You're listening to Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different. We are the real dialogue podcast for people with a different mind. So get your mind in a different place, and hey ho, let's go.   Portable Power and the AI Energy Race China now controls 90% of the world’s battery storage cells, and the top ten storage cell manufacturers on Earth are all Chinese. The easy read on this is that the centralized, top-down model has already won. But the more interesting story is happening on the other side of the equation, where pioneers are refusing to wait for governments to build grids and are instead making power portable, distributed, and locally owned. Elon Musk quietly acquired a mobile power company capable of deploying a functional power plant in 30 days and driving it wherever demand exists. Tesla is simultaneously selling Mega Packs to cities experiencing brownouts while offering Powerwalls to individual homeowners. The insight here is that AI data is driving the need for entirely new power infrastructure, and the winners will not necessarily be the nations with the biggest grids. They will be the builders who understand that decentralized, distributed power networks can outmaneuver any centralized system when speed and flexibility matter most. Eddie raises the concept of a “Mega Pod,” a combination of batteries and GPUs in a scalable unit that could allow businesses, farms, and institutions with unused land to generate power, offset costs, and participate in a distributed data center economy. This is AI data infrastructure being rebuilt from the bottom up, and the annuity potential mirrors what Alaskan citizens receive from oil revenues every year.   Niche Down AI Data and the Rise of the Small Company Ben Affleck sold a stealth AI startup called Inner Positive to Netflix for $587 million. The company trained small models on individual film footage, replicating a director’s lighting style and visual language to accelerate post-production. An ice cream shop in downtown Los Angeles used prediction markets to hedge against cold weather, covering nearly half its monthly rent. A seven-person software company hit $10 million in revenue doing the work that once required 50 employees. These three stories appear unrelated on the surface, but they share a single strategic insight. Each one identified a narrow, specific type of AI data that nobody else was paying attention to and built an economic advantage around it. The Ben Affleck startup did not steal from other artists. It used a creator’s own footage as training data, producing tools that serve the creator rather than extract from them. The ice cream shop owner recognized that temperature data was weakness data for his business and converted it into a revenue stream through smart financial instruments. What AI is doing for smaller operators and independent entrepreneurs is lowering the barriers to prosecuting what Christopher Lochhead calls the magic triangle, building a legendary company, product, and category simultaneously. The surplus economics of AI are not accruing only to OpenAI, Anthropic, or the Mag Seven. They are flowing toward anyone willing to identify the weird data specific to their own situation and build something original with it.   Consulting and the Death of the Billable Hour McKinsey now ties 25% of its global fees to outcomes rather than hours. Bain reports that 30% of its business is AI and tech enabled, with ambitions to reach 50%. BCG expects AI work to jump from roughly 20% of revenue to 40% within a year. These are not small firms experimenting at the margins. These are the most conservative, hour-worshipping institutions in the professional services world, and they are cracking under the pressure of a new reality driven by AI data and what it makes possible. The billable hour was always a proxy for value, not a measure of it. What consulting firms are beginning to acknowledge is that AI data and the tools built around it can compress the time required for entry-level analytical work dramatically, which means the old pricing model no longer reflects what clients are actually buying. The shift from time-based to outcome-based compensation is not unique to consulting. It is the direction that professional compensation has been moving across all sectors for decades, from hourly wages to salaries to bonuses to equity. Eddie frames this shift clearly. People who are naturally oriented toward outcomes and who understand how to use AI data to drive measurable results are going to be rewarded more generously than ever before. Those who have relied on time as their unit of exchange, without a clear connection to the value they produce, are entering genuinely uncertain territory. The consultants are the last ones you would expect to change. The fact that they already are should function as a signal flare for every professional in every industry paying attention.

Sally Ann Hall Comedian! Writer! Actor! Friend! Delight! More! Her debut comedy special Dead Wife Pretty is out now on Apple TV, Amazon Prime, and many others from Comedy Dynamics.  From the press release: "Glamourous high-school drop-out" Sally Ann presents a traditional standup show that butts heads with traditional values. She tells her coming-of-age journey from Alaska to New York City with vulnerable vulgarity and unflinching honesty. Says Sally Ann: "I'm a massive feminist with massive self-esteem issues, as I think many of us are. I'm struggling to shake off my conditioning and make peace with my trauma, like all millennials, so we can be the good little grownups we want to be. I've learned to process that by trauma-dumping on strangers in a silly, borderline-stupid way that's raunchy, but also…endearing? Can I say that? I think I can say that…I'm going to." Sally Ann turns her lifetime of ridiculous lore into a relatable, honest, and hilarious performance. Her  experiences in a religious  family of origin are sharply juxtaposed with the strange, artistic life she's built with a thespian husband, about which she quips: "Look, it's embarrassing to have found happiness in a heterosexual marriage - but I have always found that the best material is born from my own embarrassment." After dropping out of high school and bumming around Europe she came to New York City to continue bumming around, and ended up a singing bartender in a famous West Village piano bar. But she found her true calling in standup comedy after dating a series of male comedians who made her realize that audacity is often more rewarded than talent. This special is the culmination of a decade of material created through male-dominated open mics, gay piano bars, rowdy clubs, cruise ships, and more than one seance. Sally Ann is thrilled to formally introduce herself to the world with her debut special: "It's not the kind of special you bring home to your parents…unless your parents smoke pot." MORE ABOUT SALLY ANN HALL: New York sensation and Alaskan embarrassment Sally Ann Hall is an award-winning comedian, writer and actor who escaped the Northwest to pursue her dream of disappointing her parents. Sally Ann (who goes by the full Sally Ann) brings a unique blend of elegance and crassness to her comedy, which has been described as "combining adult wit with childlike bladder control". A staple in the New York Comedy scene, she's won three microphone-shaped trophies, two rounds of bedbugs, and one stalker who decided to move on after meeting her in person.  Sally Ann was born in Alaska to a "very Alaskan" family, went to high school in deeply conservative Idaho where she ran away from home, tried to make it in Europe, then made her way to New York at 20 years old and never left. Through years of many odd jobs and (some intentionally) failed careers, she climbed through the ranks in film and TV production as well as the service industry. Standup entered her life at the same moment she was offered a promotion to Producer on a famous TV show and a job as a singing bartender at a famous piano bar. Fearing the production position would sideline her new comedy career, she took the singing bartending gig… and has feared it was the biggest mistake of her life ever since. She was the first place winner of the She Devil Comedy Festival, the Laughing Devil Comedy Festival, New York City's One Liner Madness, and was the first comedian in history to be named a Power Woman of the Year by Moves NY Magazine in 2025. She has headlined Carnival and Norwegian cruise ships, was a Caroline's on Broadway 'Breakout Artist', featured in the HBO Women in Comedy Festival, and was named a Comic to Watch in the prestigious New York Comedy Festival. Her live shows have been recommended by the New York Times, TimeOut NY, VICE, and maybe someday, her mom and dad. AND NOW... We have a great chat! You can have a great listen! Enjoy!

Every coastal people on earth knows the same rule: if something takes you in the water, you swim for shore. The shore is safety. The A-mi-kuk does not care about the shore. Four long arms. No legs. A body of slick, naked hide, like an animal that was skinned and never got the message. It rises up under kayaks off the Alaskan coast and drags men down into the silt. And when you claw your way onto the mud, certain you have survived it, it keeps coming. It swims through solid ground the way it swims through the sea. Under the tundra. Under the ice. Under the floor of your house. This week, Carman goes into the folklore of the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta, separates the real ethnographic record from a century of cryptid encyclopedias copying each other, and tells the story of two brothers, a fishing net, and a thing that peels its victims out of their own skin. Because the A-mi-kuk was never a story about the sea. It was a story about the fact that the ground is a promise nobody ever actually made you.

Hello Interactors,As Canadian and Alaskan wildfire smoke drifts across North American borders, it's easy to resort to feelings and language of crisis in the demand for urgent, immediate control. But fires are not new to these landscapes, and this “crisis” sits alongside others that are also on fire. Climate crises events bring into focus which histories we forget, whose knowledge we ignore, and which relationships we disrupt. Turns out it's happening at a cellular level too. The real danger is a world and ecology changing so quickly, and understood so narrowly, that it erases the very temporal patterns, memories, and ecological relationships that make adaptation possible.FIRE'S FRACTURED FREQUENCYThe climate crisis is often communicated through rising averages. We read of climbing global temperatures, sea levels, atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations, and acres burned. These measurements are indispensable, but averages can make crisis feel distant and abstract. In a forest, climate change is also experienced as an altered interval — as too little time between one disturbance and the next.A forest is not a passive surface. It actively shapes its own microclimate, stores carbon, and retains moisture until fire temporarily disrupts these relationships…and in doing so creates new ones.To understand what shorter fire intervals are doing to Alaska's boreal forests, ecologist Xanthe Walker and an interdisciplinary team of researchers examined carbon storage and forest recovery across 555 plots associated with thirty-one fires. They compared stands with different fire histories, including sites that had burned repeatedly before black spruce forests could fully recover. The absolute amount of carbon released by individual fires was broadly similar across fire-return intervals, but recently burned landscapes began with smaller remaining carbon pools and therefore lost a greater proportion of what remained. Repeated burning also consumed more legacy carbon — the carbon inherited from earlier vegetation and accumulated soils — and reduced the likelihood that some sites would regenerate as black spruce forest. Fire was doing more than releasing carbon in the present. By interrupting regeneration, it was weakening the landscape's capacity to store carbon in the future (Walker et al., 2025).Black spruce forests are not merely tolerant of fire but have evolved with stand-replacing fire as a recurring part of their life cycle. Their cones evolved to be little seed bombs that stay in the trees and release their seeds when they burn. This helps new trees grow on the ground where they're not protected by the canopy. That strategy works when fires recur at intervals long enough for stands to mature, rebuild their seed stocks, and accumulate biomass. Historically, boreal fire-return intervals commonly ranged from about seventy to 130 years. Black spruce may require roughly fifty years to produce enough seed for self-replacement. Yet intervals of less than thirty years are becoming more common in some areas, allowing another fire to arrive before recovery is complete (Walker et al., 2025).Under those conditions, fire can push regeneration away from black spruce toward deciduous vegetation or more open landscapes. Such places may remain biologically productive, but they are no longer the same forests. They store carbon, retain moisture, shelter organisms, but also carry subsequent fires differently. The landscape may not simply return to its former state after disturbance; it may cross into another ecological regime, organized by different species, intervals, and feedback loops.MEMORY, MEANING, AND MALLEABILITYIt is tempting to call such transformations unprecedented. In some measurable respects, they are. We know Industrial greenhouse-gas emissions are rapidly altering atmospheric and ecological systems on a planetary scale, and the effects are not confined to normal oscillations around once-familiar conditions. The rate, direction, and geographic concentration of change effects forests adapted to fire and may be unable to adjust when fire's frequency exceeds the time needed for reproduction and recovery.The fact that Earth has always changed does not make the present disruption ordinary. But neither does the climate crisis mark the first time people have faced the collapse of an expected environmental order. Many humans didn't survive the Little Ice Age, but many did.For many Indigenous peoples, colonization produced generations of forced displacement, altered fire and water regimes, destroyed food systems, suppressed governance, and separated communities from ancestral lands. What dominant institutions now describe as an unprecedented disruption may appear within Indigenous histories as another transformation imposed by powers that have long treated land, water, plants, animals, and people as resources to be reorganized.The word crisis can therefore describe an observable material condition while concealing a historical one. The flames are real, but so are the questions of who altered the landscape, whose losses are treated as new, who is expected to adapt, and who gets to define recovery. Potawatomi scholar Kyle Whyte challenges this framing, arguing that a dominant “epistemology of crisis” treats environmental disruptions as radically new, imminent threats (Whyte, 2021). This framing isolates the crisis from historical contexts of colonialism, allowing institutions to justify urgent, top-down actions that bypass local consent and justice under the guise of emergency.That framing carries two recurring assumptions. The first is unprecedentedness — the belief that the past contains few usable precedents or lessons for present conditions. The second is urgency — the belief that immediate action may justify setting aside ordinary concerns about consent, justice, and responsibility. Whyte's intervention exposes how crisis language can obscure Indigenous histories of displacement and adaptation while allowing new forms of dispossession to proceed in the name of emergency responses (Whyte, 2021).Whyte is not arguing that climate change is unreal or that rapid action is unnecessary. He is asking what calls for urgency and emergency action leads people to overlook or forget.When the present is imagined as unprecedented, earlier crises become difficult to see. Climate-related relocation may be narrated as a novel problem even though Indigenous nations have extensive experience with forced removal, shrinking territories, flooding, and government-directed resettlement. Declaring the current moment historically unique can erase not only previous violence but also knowledge formed through surviving it.Whyte contrasts crisis epistemology with an “epistemology of coordination.” Coordination begins not with novelty but with constant change. It asks whether the relationships needed to respond remain intact. Those relationships take the form of kinship and mutual responsibilities, including care, consent, and reciprocity. They generate what Whyte calls the “responsible capacity to respond to constant change” (2021, p. 52).This is a big geophilosophical change in how we think about the world. Adaptation isn't just about an organism or group of organisms changing to fit their environment, it's also about how things are connected, like people, places, history, and processes (the primary focus of Interplace). Fire isn't just about heat progressively burning through plants. It depends on things like how old the trees are, how much moisture there is in the soil, how many seeds are available, if there have been any fires before, what the weather is like, and the rules and laws that people have made about how to handle fire. What the forest looks like after a fire depends on which relationships are still around.The same is true of human communities. Memory is not merely a record of what happened. It is part of the infrastructure of adaptation. It carries knowledge of earlier disturbances, durable practices, failed interventions, and obligations extending beyond the present generation. A society that repeatedly labels each disruption unprecedented may collect and reason over immense quantities of data while remaining unable — or unwilling — to learn from other histories.CELLS, CUES, AND CONTINGENCYThe adaptive value of memory may reach far deeper into life than culture or nervous systems. Evolutionary biologists Maor Knafo, Elena Casacuberta, and Iñaki Ruiz-Trillo begin a recent study with the observation that “one of life's most remarkable features is its persistent and adaptive resilience in the face of constant environmental fluctuations” (2026, p. 1). They investigated whether a single-celled organism could use an environmental cue to anticipate future stress rather than responding only after that stress arrived.Cells exposed to a predictable light and vibration cue before heat stress experienced a 12 percent mortality rate, compared to a 27 percent mortality rate for cells subjected to unpredictable, random cues. The cells didn't just adapt to the heat; they learned to anticipate it, demonstrating that even single-celled life relies on temporal regularities to survive.The authors paired this experiment with a computational model. A nonlearning “blind” agent could adapt only through genetic mutation and selection across generations. A learning agent could also revise its phenotypic strategy within its lifetime, exploring alternatives when earlier responses performed poorly. In predictable environments, learning agents achieved higher fitness because they could use environmental cues to prepare for approaching conditions.The study does not demonstrate that cells reason as humans do. Nor does a cellular experiment prove a general philosophy of life. It does, however, offer evidence that even single cells can exploit temporal regularities in their surroundings. Adaptation is not always a passive process through which an external environment selects among fixed organisms. Organisms detect, respond to, and sometimes anticipate the worlds they inhabit.The model also showed that flexibility has its limits. As the simulated environment became more unpredictable, the benefits of learning started to fade. After a certain point, the cues that used to predict what would happen next didn't work as well. Keeping things flexible came with a cost, because it didn't give them any clear guidance. In the end, simpler, fixed strategies performed better. When the environment suddenly changed, the learning agents first took a big hit because their expectations had become useless. But their flexibility eventually helped them bounce back, but it also meant they made mistakes, got confused, and took time to adjust. (Knafo et al., 2026).Let's not get carried away with the comparisons. A forest isn't a Bayesian agent, and Indigenous knowledge can't be boiled down to simple conditioning. They're different forms of life, knowledge, and organization. What they do have in common is this shared principle: adaptation relies on meaningful patterns connecting past experiences to future situations.A black spruce forest can recover from a fire when trees have time to grow and produce seeds. A cell can prepare for heat when it anticipates it. A community can adapt when things change, remembering past actions, taking responsibility, and maintaining relationships. Resilience arises from a symbiotic relationship between living things and their environment. Life's resilience isn't innate. It's more that it stems from memory, prediction, adaptation, and readiness…until the world's race surpasses its ability to keep pace.RELATIONSHIPS, RECOVERY, AND RESPONSIBILITYGeographer Karen Bickerstaff warns against the dominance of a “catastrophic gaze” that portrays climate change as an imminent, universal threat (Bickerstaff, 2026). While planetary measurements are indispensable, this abstract framing can paralyze political agency, reducing people to passive spectators awaiting either inevitable collapse or a far-off technological rescue (Bickerstaff, 2026). Although our atmosphere is shared, climate exposure, responsibility, and adaptive capacity remain radically uneven. The crisis is planetary in cause, but it is lived and experienced through particular bodies, infrastructures, and local ecosystems.This planetary abstraction often fosters a form of “cruel optimism” — a reliance on grand technological promises like geoengineering or carbon-removal systems that allow us to avoid changing our politics or holding powerful actors accountable (Bickerstaff, 2026). The dangers of these universal, top-down approaches are highly visible in fire governance. Simple, blanket policies — such as total fire suppression or restrictive carbon-offset projects — frequently ignore the diverse ecological histories of fire and displace Indigenous burning practices, which ultimately increases the flammability of the landscape.In contrast to these universalizing fixes, true responsibility must preserve and restore the unique capacities of particular systems to respond to change. This is where Kyle Whyte's epistemology of coordination can turn to practice. His push is for climate action to strengthen the relationships — such as consent, reciprocity, and intergenerational obligations. This is what is his ancestors practiced surviving constant change (Whyte, 2021).Instead of top-down emergency responses that make justice disposable in the name of speed, we need “situated action” (Bickerstaff, 2026). While individuals cannot act on a planetary scale, they can act meaningfully within their own watersheds, neighborhoods, and local political coalitions. Climate action becomes durable not when it chases abstract global targets, but when it visibly improves local health, restores specific ecosystems, and corrects immediate injustices (Bickerstaff, 2026).This is not an argument for delay. Emissions do need to fall (leading to innumerable benefits), but urgency cannot excuse us from asking what kind of world our interventions produce. The task is to connect scales without allowing the global to erase the particular. A mature black spruce indeed stores carbon, but it also stores decades of growth, fungal relationships, and a history of fire and recovery. When fire returns too soon, the forest loses not just biomass, but time. Climate responsibility begins here. Not in the fantasy of holding a restless Earth still, but in preserving the intervals, relationships, and possibilities through which living systems can continue to adapt.REFERENCESBickerstaff, K.

Fred from The Subarctic Alaska Sasquatch YouTube channel is back, and you can see more of Fred's stuff by clicking the link below. In this episode, Fred shares two unsettling accounts of suspected “hairy man” encounters from the remote Alaskan wilderness.The first involves Don and Tina, a couple hired to operate a gold mine along the Koyukuk River. During a stretch of heavy rain, large rocks began slamming into their loud mining equipment from somewhere beyond the tree line. Don briefly chased a dark figure into the woods, while Tina later witnessed an enormous humanoid silhouette moving nearby.The situation escalated the following morning when the figure appeared dangerously close to their camp. Tina fired a shotgun into the air, and the couple retreated to their cabin before seeking help from a neighboring miner. He revealed that he had experienced similar harassment in the area. Despite the mine producing good gold, Don and Tina decided the money was not worth the risk and quit. Fortunately, the owner treated them fairly and paid them for their work.Fred then rshares Daniel's experience while trout fishing along the Tickchik River roughly twenty-five years ago. While waiting near a thick stand of willows, Daniel became overwhelmed by the feeling that something was watching him. After firing warning shots, he spotted a tall, black humanoid silhouette standing near the brush. Moments later, the figure crashed through the vegetation and disappeared. Subarctic Alaska Sasquatch YouTube Email BrianJoin Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.Have you had a Bigfoot encounter, Sasquatch sighting, Dogman experience, or other cryptid or paranormal encounter?

Photo: Soren White working at the Harry Race Pharmacy in Sitka, Alaska on July 10, 2026. (Katherine Rose / KCAW) Historically, pharmacists in Alaska have been limited in what they can do. Over the last decade they have advocated for and been granted expanded authority. Now, a new law goes further. Alaska Public Media health reporter Rachel Cassandra delved into the law, which will increase access to care by changing how pharmacists can work in the state. Soren White grew up in a pharmacy. “Both my parents are pharmacists here in Sitka.” As a young adult, he worked as a pharmacy tech, then went to school in Oregon to become a pharmacist. That included a four-year graduate program with clinical training, but when he returned to Sitka, Alaska for a job at his parents’ pharmacies, his daily work was much more limited. “Typically we’ve been really stuck behind the counter, counting pills.” A new state law expands what White and other pharmacists can do as part of their practice. Starting in next January, they will be able to test and treat certain ailments, like strep throat, urinary tract infections, or the flu. State Rep. Justin Ruffridge (R-AK) is a pharmacist who supported the bill. He says pharmacists in rural areas play a vital role. “We are the most highly accessible healthcare professional.” Data shows people see pharmacists up to twice as often as primary care providers. The law builds on other legislation that has helped increase pharmacists’ authority in recent years. The bill passed by wide margins in both the Alaska House and Senate. Gov. Mike Dunleavy (R-AK) vetoed it, saying it would expand the scope of practice too much and too fast, but lawmakers had enough support to override his veto. Brandy Seignemartin is executive director for the Alaska Pharmacy Association. She helped write the legislation and says it will change healthcare in the state. “Patients are gonna be able to walk into community pharmacies and have access to care for minor ailments, test and treat.” She says that is really important in a rural state like Alaska and it will be easier for pharmacists to set up collaborative agreements where they work with a provider. With more training, that could include specialists. For example, she says initially a psychiatrist could diagnose the patient, but then work with a pharmacist to optimize their medication, so the patient does not need to see the psychiatrist every single visit. She says the new law also opens the door to pharmacists covering other healthcare gaps, especially for Alaska’s vulnerable populations, including HIV prevention medication like PrEP and PEP and medications for opioid use disorder. It also would create a pathway for pharmacists to be able to get a DEA license so they can prescribe those medications. She thinks that will be a major game changer for the ongoing opioid crisis in Alaska. Molly from Denali at a Heard Museum meet-and-greet on July 11, 2026. (Photo: Gabriel Pietrorazio) Molly of Denali made her groundbreaking debut on PBS Kids back in 2019. The animated Alaska Native girl is the first Indigenous lead of a nationally distributed children's series. And as KJZZ's Gabriel Pietrorazio reports, she made a stop in Phoenix, Ariz. If you visit the Heard Museum between now through August, you will come across an Alaskan village where you can tag along with Molly on all of her wild adventures – from flying a bush plane to riding a snowmobile, wearing snowshoes or smoking salmon. “We brought Alaska to Arizona” Patty Talahongva (Hopi) is the museum's chief programming and engagement officer. “…and therefore the Heard Museum is the coolest place in town.” Alison Nicolosi is director of the nonprofit AZ Husky Rescue. “You never know when you're going to find your best friend, and sometimes it might be at the museum.” AZ Husky Rescue co-founders Alison Nicolosi, left, and Veronica Reece with Marley, an adoptable dog, at the Heard Museum on July 12, 2026. (Photo: Gabriel Pietrorazio) Sadly for Heard employee Susan Taylor, Max the husky has already found a new home. “Oh my gosh, there's one that I'm trying to adopt. He claimed me like no other.” But there are still plenty more pups – maybe enough for a pack to pull a dog sled. Get National Native News delivered to your inbox daily.

An Alaskan cruise is unlike most other voyages, and understanding what makes it different can help you make the most of the experience. Ilana Schattauer - Founder & Content Creator for the YouTube channel - Life Well Cruised and Life Well Cruised dot-com in Montreal, Quebec joins Rob Hart on the WBBM Noon Business Hour with key advice.

Matt Bissonnette grew up in a remote Alaskan village, read every SEAL book he could find, and made it all the way to SEAL Team 6. Fourteen years in the Navy, 13 straight combat deployments, team leader at the command, and one of the operators on the third floor of the bin Laden compound. In 2012, writing as Mark Owen, he published No Easy Day — and spent the next decade paying for it. The DOJ came after him for skipping pre-publication review, took every penny the book made, and left him on a 15-year payment plan. We get into what he actually saw that night in Abbottabad, the audio-recorded debrief, and why the competing narratives don't hold up tactically. Then the aftermath: 10-hour DOJ interrogations, being cut off from his own community, and getting to the point of putting a gun to his head. We also cover the hypocrisy of leadership selling their own stories, the award system, funerals he couldn't attend, and why he's now raising Wagyu cattle and self-publishing his third book, No Easy Way.

Eisenhower signed the Alaska Statehood Act into law. This monumental legislation paved the way for Alaska to officially be admitted as the 49th U.S. state on January 3, 1959, culminating decades of advocacy by territorial leaders - The push for statehood had long been championed by key political figures, notably Delegate E.L. "Bob" Bartlett, Governor Ernest Gruening, and future Governor Bill Egan. President Eisenhower signed the act without fanfare, simply stating, "Well, that's 49". The historic moment was celebrated locally with massive bonfires, including a famous one on the Park Strip in Anchorage, and the shortest banner headline in the Anchorage Daily Times: "WE'RE IN. - Sarah's background and story, a life dedicated to the outdoors, guiding bears in Kodiak, transitioning to shooting instruction, coaching the shot under pressure, shooting games, PRS (Precision Rifle Series), NRL (National Rifle League Hunter), Young Guns, the shooting match game, bear charges, red light/green light, wobble zone, representing Leupold Optics, Leupold's new  BX-HD Binoculars, Range Finders vs. Built in Range Fining, AWP trivia brought to you by Connoisseur Crude, 1915 1st running of the Mount Marathon 5k Race in Seward, AK, 1st Champion James Walters, Allie McLaughlin holds the all-time women's record for the Mount Marathon race, The world record for the longest rifle shot on a target is 4.4 miles (7,774 yards), Rapid Fire brought to you by Alaska Gun Co., closing statement and big shout out to Chad, Caleb Stillians, Sarah Leupold Optics & Accurate Advantage!

In hour three of Stokely and Evans without Mark Schlereth, Mike updates us on his tire situation as the guys wait for an update on Stink’s Alaskan antics. They continue their conversation about the youth sports pipeline pricing out kids and dissecting the real reason why US Soccer’s ceiling is capped. There's been much ado about the Broncos’ offseason being pushed back and Mike has a theory why after reading the Wickersham Article. The Broncos upgraded their WR duo this offseason, will that change the way the receivers are deployed? Will Stoke get his wish for the rotations to end. Mike and Stoke end the third hour ticking off Stink, recapping Stoke’s newfound love of futbol, and wondering what to do with Marvin Mims.

Guest JoAnne Duncan has had a varied career, from Alaskan fly-fishing guide to elementary teacher and principal, always focused on valuing the strengths of every student and staff member. Though she's stepped away from her career in public education, she continues to learn, grow, and inspire others. A lifelong learner, she finds joy and insight outdoors, exploring nature and discovering new ideas, always growing, always learning, and always curious.   Summary In Part 1 of this episode, JoAnne reflected on her unconventional path into education, her transition into school leadership, and ultimately her decision to leave the profession because of the toll it was taking on her physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Since leaving, JoAnne has focused on what she calls "radical self-care," prioritizing physical and mental health through activities like yoga, swimming, and surfing in Hawaii. This period of recovery has restored her well-being and opened space for reflection about her future. While she continues to enjoy substitute teaching, she is exploring new directions, particularly those involving helping others, possibly through fitness, motivation, or personal growth. JoAnne and I have known each other for years, so when I learned she was struggling with what to do next, I proposed that we both read Elizabeth Weingarten's book, How to Fall in Love with Questions: A New Way to Thrive in Times of Uncertainty, to see what comes up for us. The central message of the book is that uncertainty is not a problem to be solved as quickly as possible; it is a condition of life that can foster growth, insight, and self-discovery when approached with curiosity and patience. The book was inspired by Elizabeth's own questions and her reading of the Austrian poet Rainer Maria Rilke, who believed that we can benefit from "falling in love with our questions"—in effect, living patiently with them. Part 2, then, explores our takeaways from reading Elizabeth's book. You can hear my conversation with Elizabeth in episode #421: https://bit.ly/44HQsAk A key takeaway Burnout isn't always a signal to work harder—it may be an invitation to rethink the questions you're asking about your life. By embracing uncertainty with curiosity and self-compassion, you can find opportunities that align more closely with your values and well-being.

Since the early 1970s, thousands have gone missing within a remote expanse of untamed Alaskan wilderness, with a wild array of "explanations" as to WHY.  UFO sightings, Bigfoot & Shapeshifter encounters suggest only a peek into the potential supernatural possibilities....Is it merely the electric power of Earth herself?  #TheAlaskanTriangle #mystery #UFOs #Bigfoot #disappearances 

In this episode, Kayla Fratt sits down with legendary Alaskan wildlife ecologist Dr. John Schoen to explore the past, present, and future of the Tongass National Forest.With nearly five decades of boots-on-the-ground research, John's groundbreaking work has reshaped our understanding of how logging practices directly impact black-tailed deer, salmon, and the broader temperate rainforest ecosystem. John dives deep into the complex history of timber politics, the vital distinction between old-growth and second-growth habitats, and why forests hold profound intrinsic value far beyond just timber and venison.We also highly recommend checking out John's book, Tongass Odyssey, to not only go more in depth on what's discussed today- but to also see some fantastic side by side photos of old growth and new growth forests to appreciate the drastic distinction between the two.

The Perils of the Northwest Coast. Guest Author: Hampton Sides. Cook mapped the coastline from Oregon to Alaska, enduring foul weather and perpetual fog. While the Spanish sought to arrest him for encroaching on their territory, Benjamin Franklin ordered American captains to protect Cook's scientific mission. The expedition spent a month repairing ships at Nootka Sound, interacting peacefully with the Mowachaht people. Cook meticulously charted the Alaskan coast, even navigating by the sound of walruses in low visibility. However, upon reaching the Bering Sea, he encountered the "ice blink" and an impenetrable wall of ice, proving the "open sea" theory wrong. Threatened by the encroaching pack ice, Cook was forced to retreat, abandoning the search for the season. 71810 DEATH OF COOK
