11-23-21 Tonight we're venturing back into the world of mead sensory analysis. Stephen from experimeads.com will be joining us again to talk about the latest mead experiments he's been conducting. Stephen is a home mead maker, three time Canadian mead maker of the year, and BJCP certified beer and mead judge. In the process of honing his craft, he has been testing the parameters of mead fermentation and conducts formal sensory analysis to compare methods. Given the lack of scientific evaluation of meads relative to wine and beer, he has been sharing his findings with other mead makers via experimeads.com to try and push mead quality to the next level. We will be talking to him on how and why to design experiments on sensory analysis. Whether conducting triangle tests or bench trials, why is formal evaluation needed to take your mead consistently to the next level? He will cover recent findings from experiments on water chemistry, nutrient off-flavor thresholds, acidity, nutrient levels for ale yeasts, and the effect of kieselsol and chitosan. We find out why he has been focused on session meads, and how the experiments on nutrient timing, pitch rates, nutrient types, dried vs wet yeasts, and alternative ale yeasts inform his recently published recipe? Also, we chat with him about evidence that online calculators can lead to off-flavors. Why does he suggest that the next generation of calculators should formalize the risk from Go-ferm and vary the YAN recommendations by pitch rates, oxygenation regimes, acidity, and temperature? Finally, we will also get an exclusive sneak peek of results from other experiments that have not been published on experimeads.com.

We can never know another person's thoughts and motivations. Most killers have a reason to commit murder; whether for revenge, jealously, or money, they understand why they killed their victim. Kyung Yoon, though, said he did not know why he killed Amy Sue Patrick. He claimed he murdered her on the spur of the moment, but some evidence suggests Yoon premeditated the crime.

Murder, My Dude returns to Fridays (well, every other Friday), with a new story just in time for the upcoming cold months. When you think cold weather in the US, you think Alaska, and no killer terrorized our 49th state more than Robert Hansen, better known as Bob The Baker or The Butcher Baker (it's not known if he ever made candlesticks). After moving from Iowa to Anchorage, Alaska in the 1960s, Hansen engaged in a decade-plus long reign of terror that could've gone longer if it hadn't been for one victim that refused to be victimized. This week, we explore his story. BUT FIRST! On This Week In Murder, we take a deep look at the horrific accident on the set of the film Rust and a Minnesota Man who may have successfully employed a legal defense based around energy drinks.

This is the third episode to come out of a podcasting trip I made two Austin right after the East Texas Showdown. I interviewed five participants of the ETS in less than 20 hours just days after the their ride ended. It was really cool as a first time event director to get all of their feedback shortly after finishing the event. Alicia Danze and Hannah Simmons shared first place this year on the East Texas Showdown route with a time of 2d, 1h, 21m. It was both of their first times to do a bikepacking race, but they each came in with experiences that gave them confidence. Alicia is a well rounded cyclist with bikepacking experience and as a member of Ultra Violet Racing. Hannah is the shop manager at CycleEast in Austin and the first bike tour she did was the Texas 4000 that starts in Austin, TX and ends in Anchorage, AK, she did it almost on a whim because a friend asked. This time she was sucked into the ETS by her Austin friends, Alicia included, but I don't think she needed much convincing. Full writeup along with a nice gallery of images of Alicia and Hannah from the race on www.bikesordeath.com. EPISODE SPONSORS These episodes aren't possible without support!

Even the best earthquake early warning systems will give you only five to eight seconds of notice before you experience ground shaking. This week, Jonathan and geotechnical engineer Ashly Cabas take more than an hour exploring seismic waves, soils, risk assessment, and other earthquake fundamentals so that you can be prepared in the event of a natural hazard. Ashly Cabas, Ph.D., is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Civil, Construction, and Environmental Engineering at North Carolina State University (NCSU), where she investigates seismic hazards and earthquake effects on civil infrastructure. Her team at NCSU collaborates with seismologists, geologists, and structural engineers to understand how the response of soils and rocks to earthquake loading can influence the damaging potential of earthquakes. Her research group's work has also been recognized with EERI best paper awards in 2014 and 2018, and she has served in reconnaissance missions after the 2018 M7.1 Anchorage, Alaska earthquake, and more recently the 2021 M7.2 Nippes, Haiti earthquake. You can follow Professor Cabas on Twitter @amcabas, and keep up with her work at NCSU on Twitter @NCStateCCEE and on the Cabas Research Group site. Want to learn more about earthquakes?

[Part 2 of 2] In June 1983, Cindy Paulson ran out onto a highway in Anchorage, barefoot and handcuffed. She was the prized prey of a prolific serial killer who was plaguing the region and had escaped his plans to hunt her down in the Alaskan wilderness – something he had done with many other women...
