In this episode, Cherise is joined by Paul Murdoch, Founder and President of Paul Murdoch Architects in Los Angeles, California. They discuss the Flight 93 National Memorial in Shanksville, Pennsylvania. This episode is particularly meaningful as this year marks the 25th anniversary of 9/11.You can see the project here as you listen along.The Flight 93 National Memorial transforms a former reclaimed strip mine in Somerset County, Pennsylvania, into a 2,200-acre landscape of remembrance, reflection, and environmental healing. Rather than imposing a singular monument on the site, the design unfolds as a carefully choreographed memorial landscape, including the 93-foot-tall Tower of Voices, which holds 40 wind chimes representing the 40 individuals aboard Flight 93. As wind passes through the tower, aluminum chimes of varying lengths respond with different tones, creating an ever-changing acoustic presence.If you enjoy this episode, visit arcat.com/podcast for more.If you're a frequent listener of Detailed, you might enjoy similar content at Gābl Media.Mentioned in this episode:Social Channel Pre-rollPromotes the YouTube channel, ARACTemy, and social handle.

Diesel generators remain ubiquitous because they offer an unusually powerful combination of low cost, high energy density, long-duration storage, and reliable off-grid power. But their pollution, noise, maintenance requirements, permitting challenges, and growing footprint are becoming increasingly problematic as data centers drive demand for backup generation. In this episode of Catalyst, Shayle Kann talks with Richard Wang, co-founder and CEO of Voya Energy, about the company's effort to replace diesel generators with generators powered by aluminum. Richard explains why diesel has been so difficult to displace, why natural gas and batteries fall short for some backup applications, and how Voya's electrochemical generator uses aluminum pellets and air to produce electricity. Unlike combustion-based generators, the system is designed to operate without air emissions, while offering high energy density, quiet operation, rapid startup, and long-duration capabilities. The conversation also explores aluminum's potential as a globally transportable energy carrier and why low-grade scrap aluminum could provide Voya's initial fuel supply. Richard and Shayle discuss: The global diesel generator market and why diesel remains dominant Why natural gas generators and batteries haven't displaced diesel Aluminum as a high-energy-density fuel How Voya Energy's electrochemical aluminum generator works Voya vs. diesel on cost, footprint, power quality, and runtime Using Voya generators as grid assets and battery alternatives Why metal fuels are becoming viable now Using low-grade scrap aluminum as fuel and the long-term vision for recyclable aluminum energy storage  Credits: Hosted by Shayle Kann.

In this episode, Dr. Mike Hart sits down with Dr. Leigh Erin Connealy for a wide-ranging conversation on cancer prevention and the factors she believes influence long-term health. Dr. Connealy shares her perspective on why cancer should be approached as a whole-body problem, exploring the roles of nutrition, metabolic health, environmental toxins, sleep, stress, hormones, and mitochondrial function. They also discuss fasting and ketogenic diets, cancer screening, GLP-1 medications, aspirin, peptides, medicinal mushrooms, IV vitamin C, and other integrative approaches, along with Dr. Connealy's concerns about conventional screening and treatment practices. Throughout the conversation, she emphasizes individualized care and looking beyond a diagnosis to understand the broader conditions affecting each patient.   Dr. Leigh Erin Connealy is a medical doctor with four decades of experience who takes a prevention-focused, whole-person approach to health, longevity, and complex chronic disease. Her work spans human optimization through advanced conditions including cancer, dementia, autoimmune disease, and Parkinson's, with an emphasis on identifying and addressing factors that may interfere with the body's ability to function optimally. Her approach was shaped in part by her own health journey after learning that she had been exposed before birth to DES (diethylstilbestrol), which led her to undergo ongoing evaluations at MD Anderson and explore medicine beyond conventional symptom-based care. Over her career, she has incorporated individualized laboratory assessment, natural hormones, nutrition, peptides, and other integrative strategies while emphasizing what she describes as "creating health" rather than simply treating a diagnosis.    [The Cancer Revolution] — Leigh Erin Connealy, MD / Hachette Book Group https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/leigh-erin-connealy/the-cancer-revolution/9780306836688/ [Be Perfectly Healthy] — Leigh Erin Connealy, MD / Perfectly Healthy https://perfectlyhealthy.com/products/be-perfectly-healthy-1 [Celluverse Podcast] — Dr. Leigh Erin Connealy, Alannah Connealy & Jess Donovan https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/celluverse/id1836455844 [Dr. Leigh Erin Connealy Instagram — @connealymd] — Leigh Erin Connealy, MD https://www.instagram.com/connealymd/ [Cologuard Plus] — Exact Sciences Corporation https://www.cologuard.com/resources [QTI Breast Acoustic CT Scanner] — QT Imaging Holdings, Inc. https://www.qtimaging.com/breast-acoustic-ct-scanner/ [UT MD Anderson Cancer Center] — The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center https://www.mdanderson.org/ [Eminence Organic Skin Care — Sun Care] — Eminence Organic Skin Care https://eminenceorganics.com/us/face/sun-care [Primally Pure Sunscreen] — Primally Pure https://primallypure.com/pages/sunscreen [COOLA Sunscreen] — COOLA https://coola.com/collections/sunscreen   Show Notes 00:00 Welcome to the Hart2Heart Podcast 01:07 Root Cause Medicine 02:29 Is Cancer Preventable 05:42 Biggest Risk Factors 09:51 Toxins And Detox Testing 12:26 Sweating And Detox Baths 00:00 Doctors Not Listening 16:58 Does Sugar Feed Cancer 22:37 Fasting And Keto Strategies 26:05 Mushrooms And Supplements 27:21 Thiamine And Nutrient Gaps 29:35 Hormones And Cancer Risk 35:42 Complete Hormone Panels 38:02 GLP-1s and Cancer Risk 39:18 Daily Aspirin Debate 41:12 Peptides to Avoid 43:20 Russian Peptides Cycling 45:43 Non Toxic Sunscreen Choices 47:14 Deodorants and Aluminum 48:18 AirPods and Brain Health 50:26 Cancer Screening Strategy 54:30 Breast Imaging Options 56:05 Biopsy Spread Concerns 58:09 Why Medicine Misses Prevention 01:01:55 Personal DES Cancer Journey 01:03:10 IV Vitamin C for Cancer 01:04:26 Where to Follow and Book   The Hart2Heart podcast is hosted by family physician Dr. Michael Hart, who is dedicated to cutting through the noise and uncovering the most effective strategies for optimizing health, longevity, and peak performance.

In this episode of the Prolonged Field Care Podcast, Dennis sits down with Alex, CEO of Shannon Mechanics, a Ukrainian company that has produced more than 8,000 drag stretchers and over 330,000 immobilization splints for the front line since the full-scale invasion.Alex shares the raw story of how the company started with scrap materials and construction-store aluminum during the early chaos of 2022, scaled production while operating physically underground with independent power and battery-powered equipment, and refined products based on real soldier feedback. They discuss the BM splint (a more rigid, radiolucent alternative designed for Ukrainian conditions), the philosophy behind their rollable plastic drag stretcher optimized for one-person extraction under drone threat and complex terrain, quality control under resource constraints, the transition from pure volunteering to a sustainable business, and the deeper questions of dignity in life and death, PTSD, and long-term rehabilitation.This is practical, unfiltered insight into how medical manufacturing adapts when supply lines collapse, borders close, and every piece of gear has to work in the worst conditions imaginable.Key TakeawaysMedical equipment designed for true one-person drag evacuation becomes critical when vehicles and multi-person teams are unavailable under drone threat and destroyed terrain.Starting with simple, locally available materials (construction-store aluminum for splints) allowed rapid production when imports were impossible.Operating underground with independent power, internet, and battery-powered tools enables continuity during blackouts and air raids.Visual quality control plus a “donation pile” for minor cosmetic defects keeps functional gear moving to the front while supporting community needs.Sustainable production requires paying people and covering costs—pure volunteering burns out and collapses.Feedback loops from soldiers drive continuous product improvement (rigidity, size options, packing for NATO pouches).Beyond the gear itself, the conversation highlights the need for dignity in recovery of the wounded and the fallen, plus long-term psychological and prosthetic support for survivors.Chapters00:00 – Introduction & Disclaimer00:26 – Meet Alex: CEO of Shannon Mechanics01:15 – Company origins: Revolution of Dignity to 2014–202202:41 – Humble beginnings, scrap materials, and the siege of Kyiv04:55 – Building supply chains under closed borders07:18 – Starting with BM splints, then the Utah/drag stretcher08:06 – Material challenges and community-driven solutions11:20 – Learning the craft, teaching production, and favoring people over full automation13:26 – From volunteering to a sustainable business model16:21 – Quality control process for splints23:20 – Introducing the drag stretcher design philosophy24:02 – Why rigid NATO litters fail in modern Ukrainian conditions25:01 – One-person drag, complex terrain, drones, and secondary injury prevention28:15 – Limitations (sniper fire) and real-world evacuation stories (8 km drag, quad bike integration)30:32 – Hypothermia protection, mud/snow durability, and recovery of the fallen34:40 – PTSD as generational trauma and the need for long-term support40:00 – Managing supply chain volatility and building Ukrainian supplier capacity42:39 – What has allowed the company to succeed during warFor more content, go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.prolongedfieldcare.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Consider supporting us: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠patreon.com/ProlongedFieldCareCollective⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.lobocoffeeco.com/product-page/prolonged-field-care⁠⁠⁠⁠

Our guest is Brett Henderson, co-founder and CEO of SolarPanelRecycling.com, or SPR. The company owns and operates plants in North Carolina, Georgia, and Texas, with a fourth opening in California this year, each built to run about a million panels a year and to scale to 3 million within six months when needed. SPR is a Solar Energy Industries Association-approved national recycler and partnered with SEIA on the first residential panel drop-off program in the country. Brett came to solar after 18 years in electronics recycling at Powerhouse Recycling, SPR's parent company, and the business started in 2018 with a call from a longtime utility client that had 10,000 panels coming out of a power plant and nowhere to send them.Brett is blunt about the economics: recycling a panel is a negative value proposition, because a panel is mostly glass and glass is cheap. What SPR sells is risk mitigation. Federal rules treat an end-of-life panel as hazardous until testing proves otherwise, most owners have no idea what is inside the modules they bought, and a utility loading thousands of them onto trucks takes on generator liability and Department of Transportation exposure. Aluminum and silver recovery subsidizes the rest. That cost has fallen 42% in 36 months at SPR, driven by rebuilt separation lines and steadier volume rather than any subsidy, and scale is what opens the end markets.

This Week in Oklahoma Politics, KOSU's Michael Cross talks with Civic Leader Andy Moore and former Republican State Senator AJ Griffin about the investigation of Seminole Republican Representative Danny Williams, a delay in reporting millions of dollars in stock trades by interim U.S. Senator Alan Armstrong and AG Gentner Drummond clashing with Insurance Commissioner Glen Mulready about a delayed report on home insurance practices.The trio also discusses the U.S. Department of Justice investigating the Broken Arrow City Council after it denied the application to build  mosque and the Muscogee Nation Council unanimously opposes the building of an aluminum smelter in Inola.

Original Air Date: 07/25/26 Episode Number: 469Episode SummaryA listener question about painting aluminum siding kicks off the show, and Dan splits the answer across two segments with a detour in the middle: a full conversation on how to identify and safely clean biological growth off the exterior of your home -- algae, mold, mildew, moss, and lichen. The aluminum siding answer wraps up at the end with product recommendations and a strong case for always doing two coats. Moss and lichen get their own episode next week.Timestamps[00:00] -- Show Kickoff[00:30] -- Listener Question: Aluminum Siding[01:44] -- Oxidation and Prep Basics[03:58] -- Wash, Scrub, Rinse[05:42] -- Hand Test and Inspection[07:21] -- Primer or Not[08:11] -- Switch to Algae Topic[08:53] -- Brick Recap and What Triggered This[12:20] -- What Growth Is It?[13:32] -- Algae, Moss, Lichen, Mold[16:16] -- Efflorescence Sidebar[17:29] -- Moisture Causes First[19:01] -- Cleaning Safely Tease[20:01] -- Moss vs. Mold Distinction[21:00] -- Golden Rule: Gentle Cleaning[22:47] -- Pick the Right Cleaner[25:50] -- Prep Before Repainting[27:09] -- Hose, Not Pressure Washer[29:53] -- Why Not Straight Bleach[31:22] -- Protect Plants from Runoff[32:41] -- Fix the Moisture Root Cause[33:56] -- Aluminum Siding Paint Picks[34:45] -- Two Coats Really Matters[36:33] -- Best Benjamin Moore Options[38:54] -- Temperature and Wrap UpListener Question: Aluminum Siding [00:30]A listener wrote in asking about painting their tan aluminum-sided house a darker blue. They wanted to know what prep was involved, whether one-coat coverage was possible, and what products to use.Dan splits the answer into two segments. The short version on the one-coat question: two coats, always. The longer version on everything else follows below.Oxidation and Prep Basics [01:44]The single most important thing to understand about painting aluminum siding is oxidation. If you've ever rubbed your hand across older aluminum and ended up with white chalky powder on your palm, that's the original factory finish breaking down from years of sun, rain, and weather. That chalk has to come off before any paint goes on.Paint bonds to a surface. If that surface is a loose layer of chalk sitting on top of old factory finish, the paint is bonding to the chalk -- not to the siding. When the chalk lets go, the new paint goes with it. This is the most common reason aluminum siding paint jobs fail, and it's entirely avoidable.A pressure washer alone won't get you there. It'll knock off dirt and cobwebs, but it doesn't automatically remove oxidation. Dan compares it to washing your car with only a pressure washer after an entire Michigan summer of construction zones and dirt roads -- you'll get some of it, but you won't get all of it.Wash, Scrub, Rinse [03:58]Start with a good exterior house cleaner that's built to break down dirt, grime, mildew, and oxidized residue. Apply it, and then physically scrub the surface -- a soft-bristle siding brush on an extension pole makes this manageable. Work in sections so you can scrub and rinse before the cleaner dries on the siding.You can use a pressure washer for rinsing, but keep the pressure reasonable and always direct the spray downward the way rain would naturally hit the siding. Shooting water upward beneath the panel laps can drive moisture into the wall. The pressure washer is a rinsing and help-with-cleaning tool. The scrubbing still has to happen.Hand Test and Inspection [05:42]Once the siding is dry, perform the hand test: rub your palm firmly across the surface. If it comes away clean, you're good to move on. If there's still a chalky residue on your hand, keep cleaning. The surface doesn't need to be microscopically perfect, but you should not be able to casually wipe your hand across it and look like you've been handling powdered sugar.While you're working your way around the house, inspect as you go. Look for peeling paint, corrosion, bare aluminum, dents, damaged panels, and failed caulk around windows, doors, and penetrations. Bare or corroded areas may need spot priming before finish paint -- bring photos into RepcoLite and they'll point you toward the right primer. Loose paint should be scraped away and edges feather-sanded so they don't telegraph through the new finish.Primer or Not [07:21]If the original factory finish is clean, intact, and firmly bonded, you do not need to prime the whole house. No matter what you read online. A high-quality exterior acrylic straight over a clean, sound factory finish is the right call. Primer is for bare spots and problem areas only.Biological Growth: What Are You Actually Looking At? [12:20]Dan took a walk around his own house after mentioning offhand on last week's show that brick doesn't need much maintenance -- "every now and then you clean the algae off." That comment nagged at him all week until he went and looked. His back wall, under two old maple trees, was covered in green growth on both the brick and the vinyl siding on the addition. This week's middle segment covers what to do about it.Before you clean anything, figure out what you're actually dealing with. The growth type matters, and the surface it's on matters just as much.Algae is the most common. Thin, flat, greenish film, usually on shaded or damp areas. Feels slick when wet. Spreads across the surface rather than growing in clumps.Moss is thicker and softer -- you know what it looks like. It holds moisture against the wall, which creates problems depending on what the wall is made of. On vinyl it's mainly a staining and maintenance issue since vinyl doesn't rot, but on wood siding or shingles it can contribute to paint peeling, decay, and eventually rot. On brick, stucco, or stone it keeps mortar joints and damaged areas wetter longer than they should be.Lichen is crusty and firmly attached -- it can be gray, yellow, pale green, orange, or black. It's the toughest of the group to remove because it grips the surface aggressively. On soft brick or old mortar, scraping it off can pull part of the surface along with it. Lichen on roofs gets its own conversation next week.Mold and mildew tend to appear darker, blotchy, fuzzy, or powdery.Efflorescence -- the white, fuzzy stuff sometimes seen on brick or concrete -- looks biological but isn't. It's salt deposits left behind by moisture moving through the masonry. Address the moisture source; don't just clean it off and move on.Dan is covering algae, mold, and mildew this week. Moss and lichen get their own episode next week, including how to deal with them on the roof.Fix the Moisture Problem First [17:29]Cleaning is not a permanent fix if you don't address why the growth is there. Moisture is the cause of all of it.Before mixing any cleaner, look at what's creating the damp conditions: overflowing gutters, a downspout dumping water next to the wall, a sprinkler hitting the siding, shrubs growing too tight against the house and blocking airflow, mulch or soil piled high against the brick, or heavy shade from tree canopy keeping the wall from drying out. If you clean the wall and leave the moisture problem in place, the growth is going to come back -- sometimes pretty quickly.Cleaning Safely: JoeMax [22:47]Start with the gentlest method that will get the job done. Don't reach for the strongest chemical available or fire up the pressure washer first.Inspect the surface before you do anything. On brick, check the mortar joints -- is it solid or loose and powdery? On siding, look for loose panels, open caulk joints, peeling paint, or damaged edges. The condition of the surface determines how carefully you have to work.Also confirm you're actually dealing with biological growth and not just dirt or pollen. If it's just a surface film of grime, mild dish soap, a scrub brush, and a hose will probably handle it without any specialty product.If it's actual biological growth, the product Dan recommends is JoeMax House Cleaner and Mildew Killer. It's a concentrate that combines a mildewcide, bleach activator, and detergents. You mix it with household bleach and water. It kills mold and mildew and lifts dirt and staining at the same time, and it's rated for virtually every surface on the outside of a house -- vinyl, aluminum, painted or stained wood, trim, fences, stucco, concrete, and brick. One product covers everything. For Dan's situation with both brick and vinyl on the same house, that matters.Using it is straightforward: mix per the label, spray on, give it about five minutes to work, and rinse off. Most smooth surfaces won't need scrubbing. Textured surfaces like brick may need a light scrub. Mix only what you'll use in the next few hours -- once bleach is added, it's only good for a short time and can't be saved.Why Not Just Use Straight Bleach? [29:53]Bleach is not a great cleaner on its own. It beads up and runs off rather than wetting the surface and lifting residue. It also flashes off quickly -- it can lighten a mildew stain and evaporate before it actually kills the growth, so the problem comes right back. JoeMax has detergents that let it wet the surface, carry the contamination away, and stay active long enough to do the job properly.Hose, Not Pressure Washer [27:09]For the actual cleaning, a garden hose with a...

We are in the third week of our 4-part series on the 6th-leading cause of death in America.  In this episode, we focus on the thorough diagnostics at Holistic Integration that reveal the root causes of brain deterioration.  In this episode, you'll discover:—Why Dr. Prather believes there are more contributing factors to Alzheimer's than just the amyloid plaque theory.  And the six factors or patterns that Dr. Prather looks for as potential underlying causes to Alzheimer's.—The SPECT imaging that is critical to any diagnosis of Alzheimer's.  And the blood tests that can actually help to prevent deterioration of brain health if diagnosed early.—How a Cardiovascular workup is important for Alzheimer's and Dementia since you are more likely to develop Alzheimer's if you have Cardiovascular disease. —The surprising connection between a person's fingerprint patterns and Alzheimer's. —How proper levels of Vitamin D can help reduce your chances of developing Alzheimer's by 40%.  And the importance of checking the B Vitamins and Iodine.—The reason that inflammation markers are "extremely important" for Alzheimer's. —How Alzheimer's is referred to as Type 3 Diabetes due to the impact of glycotoxic levels of blood sugar on the brain.—Why Dr. Prather says he would refuse to take on a patient with Alzheimer's or Dementia unless they agreed to do a Hair Analysis.  And how a Hair Analysis shows your levels of heavy metals like Aluminum, which seems to be most associated with Alzheimer's and Dementia. —The "tremendous amount of changes" that Dr. Prather sees in emotional and brain health by balancing the Copper-Zinc ratio. —Why an annual stool kit is so essential because of the connection between gut health and brain function.  And what the "research grade" Autonomic Nervous System or ANS Test at Holistic Integration reveals about your brain health .http://www.TheVoiceOfHealthRadio.com*Receive exclusive bonus content as a member of our Voice Of Health Patreon Community:https://www.patreon.com/cw/VoiceofHealthPodcast

Walk through your house with me for a minute. That baking sheet in your oven? It's not just for cookies, it's a radio antenna ground plane, a cooking surface over coals, and a drying rack for seeds. That petroleum jelly in the medicine cabinet? Fire starter, skin protection, rust prevention. That five‑gallon bucket in the garage? Sanitation system, water hauler, food storage, even rain catchment. Most people see clutter. Preppers see capability.In this episode we look at 17 overlooked everyday items with real survival uses. Aluminum foil becomes a heat reflector, emergency cooking surface, even a late‑night plumbing patch (ask us how we know). Baking soda handles grease fires and bug bites. Bandanas filter water and become slings. Coffee filters pre‑filter dirty water. Dental floss repairs gear, and yes, we talk realistically about wound closure options. Empty pill bottles protect matches and tinder. Old belts become straps and tourniquets. Zip ties secure almost anything. Plastic sheeting turns into shelter. Freezer bags protect documents, electronics, and supplies.Preparedness isn't always about buying more gear. Often, it's about recognizing the hidden utility in what you already own.Mentioned In This Episode:Support Practical Prepping72 Hour Prepping ChecklistClozex Emergency Laceration ClosuresDownload this episodeIf you find value in what we do, if you've learned something new, gotten an idea for something you need to do, been entertained, or just like Krista's Southern charm, would you be willing to give back a little?You can do that one of several ways.     Go to our support page               OR     By starting your Amazon shopping from our website? --->  CLICK HERE        (We earn from qualifying Amazon purchases)Contact us:Practical PreppingWebsiteOur Sponsors:Practical Prepping BooksProof Minimalist Wallets (Discount code PREPPER)ProLine Digital Group   Website  Email1791gunleather.com (Discount code: PREP15) SurfsharkPodcast music written and recorded by Krista LawleyWebsite design and hosting by ProLine Digital Group.Podcasts Copyright 2026, P3 Media Group, LLC, and Practical Prepping Podcast

The Reykjavík Grapevine's Iceland Roundup brings you the top news with a healthy dash of local views. In this episode, Grapevine publisher Jón Trausti Sigurðarson is joined by Heimildin journalist Aðalsteinn Kjartansson, and Grapevine friend and contributor Sindri Eldon to roundup the stories making headlines in recent weeks. On the docket this week are: The New App: IcebreakerThe Reykjavík Grapevine has teamed up with Einar Stef of Hatari fame and cartoonist Hugleikur Dagsson with a new app called Icebreaker, which helps you, navigate Reykjavík, and eventually, the rest of Iceland. It features information from The Grapevine's Best of Reykjavík, information about event listings, happy hours, cheap eats and more.From Moby Dick To Moby's DickWhaling is back on the menu this year, although the current minister of the fisheries has stated that this will probably be the last summer of whaling, since the minister is proposing a new law outlawing the practice. The whaling season this year has received a lot of domestic and international attention, not least because anti-whaler Paul Watson has sent his vessel, Bandero, to intercept Hvalur hf.'s whale boats Hvalur 8 and Hvalur 9, so for without luck. Footage of an employee of Hvalur hf. swinging a whale dick while being recorded on video, did neither make pro-, nor anti-whalers happy.Gasoline Prices In IcelandAccording to The Icelandic Competition Authority Icelandic oil companies have raised the prices for diesel oil by 50% since 2022 and 25% since 2022 and gasoline. The oil companies also raised their prices just prior to the so called milage tax in January of this year. The Icelandic Competition Authority also states that the price of fuel in Iceland has consistently been higher in Iceland than in 27 other European countries in the past decade. AmphetamineTwo men are in custody following an attempt of importing 14 liters of amphetamine to Iceland via an Icelandic transport vessel in April. The two men got two crew to help out with the smuggling. CocaineA 106 kilograms of cocaine were apprehended by the Icelandic authorities on a transport vessel named Koznitza, which arrived in Iceland on 22 June. The ship sailed from Brazil til Straumsvík in Hafnarfjörður, and was bringing materials for the Aluminum smelter located in Straumsvík. This is the largest amount of cocaine ever confiscated in Iceland and at least nine people have been arrested in association with the smuggling, of which at least three are Icelandic with a Romanian and Brazilians. One of the Icelanders arrested, Lárus Freyr Einarsson, was convicted of murder in Denmark in 2011, and arrested again in 2020 in relation to the production of amphetamines in a summerhouse in Kjós, near Reykjavík.WeedThe police apprehended just under 800 cannabis plants at three different locations in Iceland recently. 200 plants were confiscated near the small village of Reykholt, and more in a summerhouse in Kjós. Maybe a different summerhouse than the amphetamines mentioned above, but we just don't know.Fisheries Investing In Unrelated Businesses In IcelandAðalsteinn Kjartansson has been writing investigative peaces for Heimildin on the investments of persons and companies who've made billions through the fisheries. The investments of the family of Guðbjörg Matthíasdóttir are extensive, and while holding a large stake in Iceland's only daily newspaper, the family owns parts of import businesses, other media companies, and health industry companies. All of these investments, went underreported in a recent report on the investments of fisheries companies, the report was commissioned by the Icelandic Parliament.Ivanka Trump Visits IcelandYeah. That happened. Who gives fuck.Human Trafficking And Prostitution, In IcelandThe Icelandic police participated in a large international police operation in June, coordinated in 59 countries, targeting a Chinese crime syndicate which has been engaged in human trafficking and prostitution. Five purchasers of prostitution were arrested in Iceland, with another 45 recorded in the act on video, and 16 women, some of whom are believed to have been victims of human trafficking by said Chinese crime syndicate, were interviewed by the local authorities. Support the show------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------SHOW SUPPORTDonate to the Grapevine here:https://support.grapevine.isYou can also support the Grapevine by shopping in our online store:https://shop.grapevine.is------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------This is a Reykjavík Grapevine podcast.The Reykjavík Grapevine is a free alternative magazine in English published 18 times per year, biweekly during the spring and summer, and monthly during the autumn and winter. The magazine covers everything Iceland-related, with a special focus culture, music, food and travel.

On this, our 331st Evolutionary Lens livestream, we discuss sunscreen and vegans. It's Summer, and the sun is out! Should you slather yourself in sunscreen, stay indoors, or seek moderate exposure to the sun that grows in intensity that more your skin becomes acclimated to the season? The last, of course. Research has found that sunscreen use may be positively correlated with skin cancer, but a) “sunscreen” is not just one thing, and most but not all sunscreen is positively toxic, and b) all cause mortality is lower in people who get regular (non-sunscreened) sun exposure, so even if sunscreen does lower your risk of skin cancer—the sun is protecting your health in other ways. Also consider ditching the sunglasses, and donning a hat. Then: even the New York Times can't figure out whose team they're on, as a vegan in Portland tries to get Oregonians to outlaw hunting, fishing, animal research, conventional livestock production, and “lethal pest control.”*****Our sponsors:Mud/WTR: Start your new morning ritual & get up to 43% off your @MUDWTR with code DarkHorse at http://mudwtr.com/DarkHorse #mudwtrpodCaraway: save up to $230 on the 12 piece cookware set vs buying the products individually; include minis duo & save up to $350.

The beverage industry is hitting a catastrophic wall, but it isn't just standard inflation. A high-stakes "metallurgical siege" is unfolding at the exact intersection of consumer packaged goods (CPG) and defense economics. In this video, I break down why aluminum costs have recently surged on the London Metal Exchange and what this means for the future of grocery shelves and beverage coolers. From China's strict production caps to Middle East tensions in the Strait of Hormuz, global supply chains are fracturing. But the biggest threat? The Pentagon. Under federal law, defense contractors have prioritized access to American metals. As the U.S. modernizes its military arsenal under a $1T+ defense budget, the CPG industry is left fighting for the residual scraps...artificially inflating baseline costs and crushing profit margins for everyday brands. I'll dive deep into the companies caught in the crossfire, why the famous 2021-2022 Celsius Holdings survival playbook won't work today, and how "form-factor agility" (moving from cans to powder stick packs) will separate the survivors from the bankrupt in the late 2020s.Also, I'll be examining topics like: Why the U.S. only produces 1/3 of its required primary aluminumHow military procurement dictates commercial grocery marginsWhy venture capital is abandoning weak-margin CPG brands for defense technologyThe folklore of Celsius Holdings importing cans from Europe, and why protectionist tariffs killed that strategy for 2026 Why brands can no longer shrink past the standard 12-ounce sleeveHow functional wellness beverages hold the ultimate leverage over traditional soda and beer.
