Podcasts about Andes

Today I'm so pleased to welcome back someone who you all loved the first time around on the podcast - the brilliant author and travel writer, Monisha Rajesh. Her passion for trains, and for the way rail travel slows you down and opens you up to new worlds, was just infectious. And I'm so excited to say that she's back with a gorgeous new book called Moonlight Express, which takes us deep into the magical world of sleeper trains. In this new adventure, Monisha journeys across Europe, the Americas and beyond, trading airports for railway platforms and following moonlit tracks through some of the most cinematic landscapes on Earth, which we have the pleasure of chatting about today. From the soft snow and candlelit calm of the Norwegian night trains to the fairy-tale villages of Transylvania, glimpsed at sunrise through the window of a creaky couchette on the Dacia Express. Or to the pastel-painted streets of Savannah, Georgia, in the US, reached on Amtrak's Silver Meteor. She takes us high into the Andes too, aboard the luxurious Belmond Andean Explorer from Cusco to Arequipa, where the train carves through deserts and towering peaks, so close to everyday life you feel like you could touch it. And back in Britain, she celebrates her mum's 70th aboard the Royal Scotsman, sipping whisky in the observation car as the Highlands go past.She reminds us what makes train travel so unique: the romance, the community, and the chance to simply sit by the window and watch the world roll by.Destination Recap: Oslo to trondheim, Trondheim to Buda, NorwayTransylvania, Romania FinlandPeru - Belmond Andean Explorer - Cusco to ArequipaBelmond Royal Scotsman Caledonia Sleeper Train, London to Edinburgh Cornish Riviera trainSilver Meteor - Orlando, Florida to Savannah, GeorgiaSavannah, Georgia, USAMoonlight Express: Around the World by Night Train by Monisha Rajesh is published by Bloomsbury (28 August).With thanks to Airbnb for their support of today's episode.Thanks so much for listening today.

Nous sommes en 1542, au cœur de l'Amérique du sud. Deux conquistadors, Gonzalo Pizarro et Francisco de Orellana, tentent de trouver une nouvelle route vers l'Inde, au-delà de la gigantesque barrière des Andes. Leur quête se terminera par un échec et les contacts avec les populations indigènes seront la plupart du temps sanglants. En quête d'un mythique Eldorado, les conquistadors rencontrent de farouches guerrières et baptise l'immense fleuve sur lequel ils naviguent « Amazone ». L'Amazone qui draine 40 % du continent sud-américain. Le fleuve prend sa source dans les Andes, traverse le Pérou, la Colombie et le Brésil, et se jette dans l'océan Atlantique au niveau de l'équateur. Partons sur les traces de Gonzalo Pizzaro et Francisco de Orellana.

Rapid data collection can provide an insight into causation, the socio-cultural reality, and complex social processes. This is especially important in disease outbreaks when information is quickly required on local needs that is essential for success. My guest today will discuss rapid data collection and how it is applied in a hantavirus outbreak in Argentina. He will also discuss its use within the contact of Ebola. Joining me today is Glenn Laverack, PhD. Dr Laverack is a professor at the College of Medicine & Health Sciences, Institute of Public Health at UAE University. He is also the author of a number of books on health promotion and outbreaks.   The Challenge of Rapid Data Collection and Health Promotion: A Quick and Easy Approach

Mientras la IA se integra a decisiones que antes solo tomábamos los humanos —como otorgar un crédito, elegir un tratamiento médico o clasificar una hoja de vida—, crece también la urgencia por regularla. Pero regular no es fácil: ¿quién lo hace, cómo y bajo qué principios?En este primer episodio de la cuarta temporada de Clase a la Casa, hablamos sobre el documento CONPES 4144, que marca la hoja de ruta de Colombia para regular la inteligencia artificial hasta 2030.

Show Notes:Angel's Links:Rock IguanaCoast to Bluff Recreation Access and ConservationAngel Robeldo's InstagramEpisode Intro: Dear listeners of the Female Guides Requested Podcast, happy Wednesday! This is your host, Ting Ting. In this episode, I have guest Angel Robeldo from Rock Iguana, a guide service located in the Cayman Islands. Towards the end of last year, one of my SPI students told me he needed certification to work in the Caribbean, which piqued my interest. As soon as I knew the owner of the guide service was a woman, you can probably guess what happened next!Angel was born and raised in Sao Paulo, Brazil. She left Brazil in 2005 to discover the world and ended up discovering herself. She has climbed around the world and done a lot of high-altitude mountaineering, including in the Himalayas, Andes, and Denali. Angel has traveled through more than 80 countries but found Cayman Brac to be the perfect place to live and enjoy her lifestyle. Since 2013, she has promoted and helped develop rock climbing in the Cayman Islands. She also helped build a non-profit boulder gym in Grand Cayman where a climbing community started to grow. Angel is an AMGA Certified Single Pitch Instructor.One might say Angel is truly living the dream, but I'd say that is the guaranteed result because she has always followed her mind and heart. Now please enjoy the episode of Angel Robeldo.What We Talked About:From ocean to mountains and back to both ocean and mountainsAn injury changed Angel's life trajectoryFulfilled her dream of living in the CaribbeanPersonal and Professional climbing journey in Cayman BracGrowing up in BrazilFear of height | Fear of ExposureWhere are the clients from?Climbing courses and adventure travelClimb Iguana & Coast to Bluff Recreational Access and ConservationWork & life balanceBeing away helps strengthen the love of her residence Cayman IslandsHoliday guidingQuotes:I was terrified of heights.

That's my favorite because I know exactly where you are.Have the fear and go for it. And then suddenly there is no more fear.I keep doing what I love and what drives me and what makes me feel very alive.When you owe a guiding company when it's just you working it's way easier because you just have to manage you when it started to get big and they have all the employees it's just like sometimes it's way more work and no more moneyMost of the time what stop all of us doesn't matter if you are on a female body, on a masculine body, all stop us is on our heads

“Kuyfike awkiñ dungu, ecos de voces antiguas. Textos de la tradición oral mapuche recopilados a fines del siglo XIX”, de los editores Elisa Loncón, Belén Villena y Benjamín Molineaux y coeditado con CIIR (Centro de Estudios Interculturales e Indígenas de la UC) y Pehuén Editores corresponde a una reedición del primer registro sustancial de la literatura tradicional mapuche, compilada por el reconocido lingüista Rodolfo Lenz, en los últimos años del siglo XIX. Este destacado profesor alemán, llegó a Chile contratado por el gobierno chileno en 1889, ocasión en la que desarrolló una prolífica e importante labor científica y pedagógica, así como también en las áreas de la lingüística y los estudios del folclore nacional. Su trabajo se tradujo en un libro que incluye relatos realizados por hombres y mujeres mapuche representantes de una tradición oral de raíces ancestrales. En su interior, se pueden apreciar cuentos sobre animales y seres sobrenaturales, así como también narraciones históricas y canciones. Esta obra publicada originalmente por el lingüista alemán Rodolfo Lenz entre los años 1895 y 1897, forme parte de una tradición de estudio y documentación de la lengua y la cultura mapuche hecha por agentes de documentación alemanes. Esta tradición comienza en el año 1777 con la publicación, en Westfalia, Alemania, de la obra Chilidúgú sive tractatus linguae chilensis, del misionero jesuita Bernardo de Havestadt; y continúa con misioneros capuchinos alemanes, como Félix de Augusta, quien publicó, entre otras obras, una gramática (Gramática araucana, 1903) una compilación de textos (Lecturas araucanas, 1910) y un diccionario (Diccionario Araucano-Español y Español-Araucano, 1916), y Ernesto Wilhelm de Moesbach, a quien debemos, entre otras obras, la autobiografía del cacique Pascual Coña (Vida y costumbres de los indígenas araucanos en la segunda mitad del siglo XIX, 1930).   El texto original del lingüista Rodolfo Lenz tiene por título “Estudios araucanos: materiales para el estudio de la lengua, la literatura, i las costumbres de los indios mapuche o araucanos”, y fue publicado, entre los años 1895 y 1897. Es un texto extenso de gran relevancia y para ponerlo en valor, las académicas Elisa Loncón y Belén Villena, esta vez acompañadas de Alina Namuncura han ganado un apoyo para la traducción de uno de sus relatos, el relato denominado Miawmen waydüf mapu mew ‘Viaje al país de los manzaneros', narrado por Domingo Kintupüray. El texto fundamental y que las especialistas han escogido es el de Kintupüray con el propósito traducirlo al inglés para su promoción internacional, con énfasis en el mercado europeo y alemán considerando sus múltiples aspectos. La importancia de esta obra para la documentación del mapuzugun y de la cultura y literatura tradicional mapuche radica en primer lugar, que los textos recopilados en esta obra constituyen un extenso testimonio de la lengua y la cultura mapuche durante la mal llamada “Pacificación de la Araucanía” que permiten conocerlas tal como eran antes de ser afectadas por la sociedad chilena. En segundo lugar, a través de ellos hablan por primera vez los mapuches (antes, la producción escrita consistía en textos cristianos traducidos desde el español o el latín por parte de misioneros interesados en la evangelización). En tercer lugar, fueron recopilados, transcritos y traducidos con el máximo de rigor científico, de acuerdo con los avances que entonces había logrado la lingüística, lo que le permitió al autor plantear la existencia de 4 variedades dialectales: la nortina o picunche, la cordillerana o pehuenche, la central o moluche y la sureña o huilliche. La relevancia del relato escogido para su traducción al inglés (Miawmen waydüf mapu mew ‘Viaje al país de los manzaneros), aumenta en cuanto narra el cruce de la cordillera de los Andes por una ruta tradicional mapuche, referida en otros relatos y empleada para salir de Chile en tiempos de persecución política. En él, Domingo Kintupüray, oriundo de Osorno, narra en mapuzugun el viaje que realizó en 1871 para vender aguardiente a los mapuches establecidos en la falda oriental de la cordillera, entre los lagos Lácar y Nahuel Huapi. Esta ruta, denominada actualmente como paso Lilpela, conecta la Región de Los Ríos, en Chile, con la Provincia de Neuquén, en Argentina. Es una ruta tradicional empleada históricamente por mapuches para el intercambio cultural y comercial entre la población residente en ambos lados de la cordillera. Posteriormente, fue empleada por expediciones particulares con fines comerciales, como la llevada a cabo por el colono alemán Otto Muhm, a fines de 1857 y comienzos de 1858; y expediciones financiadas por el Estado de Chile, como la de Guillermo Cox, comisionado por el Gobierno de Chile para la exploración del río Negro en busca de una nueva línea de comunicación entre el lago Nahuel Huapi y el Atlántico, en 1863. En décadas más recientes, esta misma ruta fue empleada para salir de Chile en tiempos de persecución política; como lo hizo Pablo Neruda en 1949, cuando huyó del país debido a la Ley de Defensa Permanente de la Democracia, durante la presidencia de Gabriel González Videla. Referencias a este paso se encuentran en libros como Nampülkafe. El viaje de los mapuches de la Araucanía a las pampas argentinas (Bello, 2011) y Por aquí pasó Neruda (Bestard, 2020), y en artículos de investigación como “Reporte de viaje por el camino de Guillermo Cox desde Valdivia hacia el País de las Manzanas, siglos XVIII y XIX” (Vezub, Godoy, Alvarado, Urbina y Adán, 2021) y “Desde Valdivia al País de las Manzanas: el colono Otto Muhm y su diario de viaje al río Limay (1857- 1858)” (Reyes, 2024). Por todo esto, el texto presentado en este proyecto dialoga con una larga tradición histórica que une Alemania con Wallmapu; por lo tanto, ofrece un gran potencial dentro del mercado editorial europeo y alemán, donde hay un fuerte interés por los viajes, los relatos etnográficos y las sociedades originarias. Además, este texto puede inspirar nuevas rutas turístico-culturales, incentivando a lectoras y lectores germanoparlantes a conocer la ruta y geografía descrita por Kintupüray desde una perspectiva profundamente enraizada en el territorio y la cosmovisión mapuche. Los invitamos a escuchar a Elisa Loncón, Belén Villena y Alina Namuncura junto a la periodista Vivian Lavín sobre un trabajo de hondo calado histórico y actualidad.

My guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is Kent Merrell, author of the book The Conquest of Liberty. Meet A. Kent Merrell, a man whose creative spark has ignited award-winning advertising campaigns, inspired global leadership talks, and now fuels the pages of his vivid historical fiction. With his latest book, The Conquest of Liberty, Kent invites readers on a rollicking journey through the reformation in Europe, the discovery of the New World, and the dramatic fall and liberation of the Inca Empire. His storytelling, steeped in travels to far-flung lands and two years living atop the Andes, breathes life into history with a flair only a master of “ideas that work” could muster.   Kent's creative journey kicked off in a small Utah town, where he co-founded an advertising agency fresh out of Brigham Young University. His knack for crafting messages that make phones ring and perceptions shift drew heavyweights like Disney, VISA International, HBO, and Comcast to his doorstep. Recognized as a creative trendsetter in direct marketing, Kent's trophy case boasts 27 international awards, and his creative presentation expertise has lit up stages from Europe to Latin America. In the mid-1980s, a Madison Avenue legend advised him to stay in Utah, promising the work would come—and it did, in spades.   But Kent's story isn't just about ads that pop. Leadership runs deep in his veins, sparked by watching his father, an entrepreneur with no formal power, wield profound influence through honorable character. After his father's passing when Kent was 16, he devoured leadership books and seized every chance to lead—from Boy Scout troops to serving as President of Utah's Vocational Industrial Clubs of America in high school. Later, Dr. V. Dallas Merrell tapped him to transform “Leading Global Principles” into accessible wisdom, crystallizing Kent's understanding of influence and impact. Whether guiding corporate giants or mentoring youth, Kent's leadership is as creative as his advertising, always aiming to inspire and engage. Kent's take on leadership brings with it tasty chocolate chip cookie recipes with each leadership principle. Soon to be published will be the first ever delicious leadership recipe book “Leaderchip Cookies.   Now, Kent channels his global adventures and creative prowess into historical fiction. His debut, The Blade of Safavid, whisks readers across Ancient England, Persia, India, Africa, and the Americas. The Conquest of Liberty continues this tradition, blending meticulous research with storytelling zest. When he's not penning epics, Kent's busy with his wife of 46 years, raising five children and doting on 22 grandchildren. Follow his literary adventures at www.kentmerrellauthor.com or catch his broader musings at www.kentmerrell.substack.com.   With Kent, expect a tale well-told and a legacy that inspires.   In my book review, I stated The Conquest of Liberty is a detailed, many POV, Renaissance historical fiction. We follow the journey of several people - all of whom have incredible stories - and it isn't until the very end that we find out how all of these stories wind together into one. I was immediately hooked despite knowing next to nothing about the Moors, monarchs, and monks of the time.   Kent is a master at creating characters. For instance, Miguel, an archbishop's right hand man who lives in Granada should be very foreign to me. But within a few pages, I felt as if he were alive in my living room as he fled persecution, was kidnapped by pirates, and found himself questioning both his King and his Pope. Then, there is Alessandro, a young boy in the care of Balboa, the explorer, Maria, a women who fled her home and lived with the Gitanos, and Vano, the next leader of the Gitanos, not to mention Sayyida al-Hurra, a Morracan Privateer, Jalaf Morisco, a Morracan Exile, and Talavera, the Archbishop accused of heresy.   This novel is far more than a historical fiction - it contains within the pages action, adventure, mystery, and love.

This week's Cool Conversation is between Kenton and Richard Pyne, CEO of British clothing brand Páramo. Right from the offset, we understand that Páramo is unique: Richard describes himself as the Custodian of the brand, rather than the CEO; he tells us that the company is employee-owned; he tells us they have been repairing garments for customers for 30 years, whilst most others have only recently started to offer this; and he tells us that they designed their products by mimicking mammals - how does an otter stay dry and warm, even when his fur is soaked through? Most remarkable of all, Richard explains how the brand got its name from a range of mountains in the Andes and how the unlikely pairing of a nun and an entrepreneur has created untold opportunities for women and families in Colombia. This is the story of a brand that holds on tight to its values, that lobbies much bigger industry players to contribute to the circular economy, and that cares about people.

rWotD Episode 2997: Amazops Welcome to random Wiki of the Day, your journey through Wikipedia's vast and varied content, one random article at a time.The random article for Friday, 18 July 2025, is Amazops.Amazops is a monotypic genus of caecilian in the family Rhinatrematidae. It contains only one species, Amazops amazops. It is endemic to Ecuador and is only known from a single specimen collected around 1990 from the Virgen La Dolores Farm in the province of Orellana. The individual was found in very soft, red and muddy soil under some rocks on a dirt road in a portion of the Ecuadorian Amazon at an altitude of about 1000 meters above sea level. It is presumed that like most other rhinatrematids, it is oviparous and is aquatic during its larval phase.It is the first new species of rhinatrematid caecilian from the Andes described after more than 50 years, and can be distinguished from other members of the family by its elongated squamous bone that is a part of the eye's orbit and occupies anterior parts of the skull, parts that are normally occupied by the maxilla and palatine in other rhinatrematids. It shares these anatomical traits with other non-rhinatrematid caecilians, indicating that these are likely either a convergent or ancestral trait for Gymnophiona; if the latter, Amazops would be the most basal species of rhinatrematid caecilian, and likely of caecilians in general. Due to the only known specimen being over 30 years old at the time of description and the lack of research into rhinatrematids of the area, it has been recommended that the species be classified as data deficient by the IUCN Red List.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:13 UTC on Friday, 18 July 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Amazops 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 Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Joanna.

En Bolivie, la presse couvre la réouverture du procès contre les abus sexuels sur mineurs commis au sein de la Compagnie de Jésus. Cette congrégation catholique est mêlée à de nombreuses affaires d'abus sexuels sur mineurs dans le monde, particulièrement sur le continent américain.   En Bolivie, le scandale a éclaté en 2023 après la publication d'un rapport sur le journal intime d'Alfonso Pedrajas, dit Père Pica décédé en 2009. Dans ce document, le prêtre jésuite avouait avoir abusé d'au moins 85 mineurs entre 1972 et 2000, la plupart à Cochabamba, où se déroule le procès.   Aujourd'hui sur le banc des accusés, deux anciens dirigeants espagnols de l'ordre, Ramón Alaix et Marcos Recolons. Selon l'accusation, durant leur mandat, ils ont choisi de couvrir Alfonso Pedrajas rapporte la Patria. Le journal bolivien précise que Marcos Recolons occupait à cette époque le deuxième poste le plus élevé de la Compagnie de Jésus au niveau mondial.   Le procès a été reporté à deux reprises comme le rappelle el Opinion. Les victimes espèrent donc qu'il ne le sera pas une troisième fois. Parmi les dix-huit personnes qui ont porté plainte se trouve Wilder Flores, le porte-parole des victimes a été interviewé par notre collègue Carlos Pizarro : «Certaines victimes se sont déclarées, mais nous sommes sûrs qu'en réalité, il ne s'agit pas de dizaines ni de centaines, mais de milliers de victimes d'abus sexuels perpétrés par des jésuites. Alfredo Pedrajas n'est pas le seul. Nous avons identifié bien d'autres violeurs en série, mais ils ne passent pas devant la justice parce que les victimes ne sont pas là pour les dénoncer». Le journal bolivien El Deber souligne la facette historique du procès. C'est la première fois que ces deux anciens dirigeants jésuites sont jugés sur le sol bolivien. C'est aussi un moment historique après des dizaines d'années d'impunités offertes par les autorités boliviennes à la congrégation jésuite rappelle Wilder Flores : «D'après les expériences passées, les autorités boliviennes témoignent publiquement d'une volonté à collaborer, mais en même temps, ils travaillent en coulisses. Dans le cas du procès en cours, le ministère des Affaires a demandé le réexamen de l'accord avec le Saint-Siège et le gouvernement bolivien, qui établit clairement une voie d'impunité avec l'inviolabilité des archives de l'Église. Ça prive les victimes de la vérité. Nous espérons vraiment que les appels publics à la collaboration et à condamner ces actes se traduisent en fait. C'est lamentable que le gouvernement sortant agisse de cette manière.»  En effet, comme le rapporte El Pais, un accord mis en place en début d'année entre l'État bolivien et le Sant-Siège prévoit de protéger l'intégralité des documents de l'Église. Sous cet accord, le journal intime qui a révélé les agissements du père Pedrajas n'aurait, par exemple, jamais été révélé.    Haïti : l'école et le football au cœur de la crise  Comme tous les jeudis, nous retrouvons Frantz Duval, rédacteur en chef du Nouvelliste quotidien francophone haïtien. Dans son édito, il revient sur la situation de «l'école et du football pris en otage par un pays en chute libre». L'école est une machine à produire l'échec national, dit-il. Beaucoup d'argent est également dépensé dans le football. Pourtant, il est fréquent que des équipes de la Fédération haïtienne de football ne puissent pas participer à des tournois internationaux.     Pérou : la découverte d'une ville vieille de 3 500 ans  Au Pérou, les archéologues viennent de sortir de terre une ville vieille de plus de 3.500 ans, la cité de Peñico, au nord du pays. Une ville d'échange entre deux vallées fertiles, et point de rencontre entre l'océan Pacifique, les Andes et l'Amazonie. C'est une découverte majeure pour le Pérou qui héberge donc, la plus ancienne des civilisations connues jusqu'ici sur le continent. Reportage sur place de Martin Chabal.   Porto Rico : concerts de Bad Bunny, une opportunité économique pour l'île  À Porto Rico, le chanteur de reggaeton Bad Bunny enflamme la scène du Coliseo pour une résidence de 30 concerts. Une actualité culturelle qui a une haute valeur économique, voire politique.  Le chanteur portoricain a déclaré son amour à son île natale, ce week-end, avec le début 30 concerts dans la plus grande salle de spectacle de l'île. Le nom de cette résidence artistique veut tout dire : «No me quiero ir de aqui», «Je ne veux pas partir d'ici».   Selon le journal El Vocero, c'est une opportunité historique qui pourrait rapporter 377 millions d'euros à l'île avec la création de 3 600 emplois et l'arrivée de 600 00 visiteurs durant les onze semaines de résidence.   Porto Rico souffre d'une importante crise économique. L'île caribéenne étant un «État libre associé» des États-Unis, elle pourrait être directement affectée par les projets de coupes budgétaires du président américain, Donald Trump.   Le premier week-end a dépassé les attentes d'après el Nuevo Dia, avec près de 50 000 participants aux trois premiers concerts, un record sur l'île.   En septembre, Bad Bunny enchaînera avec une tournée mondiale dont les grands absents sont les États-Unis, souligne el Diario AS qui y voit une prise de position politique. Le chanteur qui habite aux États-Unis s'est affiché publiquement en détracteur du président Donald Trump et de sa politique anti-immigration. 

Join Fernando “Nando” Parrado, businessman, author, and internationally recognized speaker, and Hoover Senior Fellow H.R. McMaster as they discuss endurance, crisis leadership, and the remarkable will to survive. Surviving one of the most harrowing events of the twentieth century: the 1972 crash of Uruguayan Air Force Flight 571, tragically losing his mother, sister, and many rugby teammates, Parrado reflects on how the values and work ethic his family engrained in him, which was nurtured on the rugby pitch, helped build the resilience needed to withstand 72 days in extreme conditions and lead a mission across the Andes to save the remaining survivors. Author of international best-seller, Miracle in the Andes, Parrado describes why he chose to publish the book 36 years after the ordeal, how he went on to create a second life after the trauma, why rugby instills life lessons like no other sport in the world – moral clarity, collective responsibility, self-confidence, and his inspiring advice for young people today.

Certaines montagnes sont plus infranchissables que d'autres. Des trains à 30 millions d'euros l'unité, une maintenance quotidienne, des millions de voyageurs à transporter chaque année, une infrastructure publique tentaculaire, des optimisations et des algorithmes dans tous les sens...C'est littéralement des dizaines de problèmes de maths à résoudre tous les jours.Et pourtant, Rachel Picard se lance. Avec toute la détermination du monde.Ancienne directrice générale de Voyages SNCF, elle est la femme derrière les succès de Ouigo, Inoui, TGV Max, et même les pianos dans les gares… et d'autres initiatives inattendues, comme la création d'une station de ski au sommet des Andes ou l'augmentation des ventes d'Euro Disney.En 2024, avec son associé Timothy Jackson, elle lève 1 milliard d'euros pour créer Velvet, première compagnie ferroviaire privée “made in France”.85 % de cette somme est directement investie dans la commande de 12 trains auprès d'Alstom.Le défi est colossal : collaborer avec la SNCF, les industriels, les autorités… et convaincre 10 millions de passagers de monter à bord d'un train totalement inédit.Aujourd'hui, Velvet compte 18 personnes. Il en faudra 300 d'ici 2028, date à laquelle le premier train Velvet entrera en gare. En attendant, rien n'est laissé au hasard : Rachel mesure les sièges au centimètre près, échange des benchmarks sur un groupe WhatsApp baptisé Benchtrains… et construit, pièce par pièce, le train ultime.Dans cet épisode, Rachel partage son état d'esprit, ses méthodes et sa vision pour entreprendre dans des projets à l'ambition démesurée.Elle revient aux fondamentaux : créer une expérience client inoubliable, tout en naviguant entre contraintes physiques, économiques et réglementaires.TIMELINE:00:00:00 : Pourquoi les marques de trains se multiplient : entre pénuries et typologies de clients00:16:40 : Vous ne devinerez jamais le prix d'un train00:23:17 : La complexité des infrastructures et la répartition des coûts00:34:21 : L'étrange concurrence entre les compagnies ferroviaires00:43:05 : La vie d'un conducteur de train00:53:51 : Les prérequis pour entreprendre et lever des fonds01:01:04 : La distribution des billets et comment grignoter des parts de marché01:09:19 : Le goût pour les projets massifs et révolutionnaires01:22:20 : “Pourquoi vous limitez ?

Le 13 octobre 1972, un avion transportant une équipe de rugby uruguayenne s'écrase en pleine cordillère des Andes. À 3 600 mètres d'altitude, sans vivres ni secours visibles, 29 survivants affrontent le froid, la faim, la solitude. Face à l'impossible, ils commettent l'impensable : pour survivre, ils mangent les corps des passagers décédés. L'attente devient interminable : 72 jours de souffrance, de décès successifs et de silence radio. Deux hommes, Fernando et Roberto, entament une traversée héroïque des montagnes pour chercher de l'aide. Le 20 décembre, ils trouvent un paysan qui alerte les secours ; les derniers survivants sont sauvés le 22. Un prêtre, envoyé sur les lieux du drame, célèbre une messe pour les victimes et absout les vivants. Le pape Paul VI leur accorde une absolution exceptionnelle, reconnaissant l'extrême détresse de la situation. Les corps ont survécu, mais les âmes sont marquées à jamais par l'horreur vécue. Un demi-siècle plus tard, certains, comme Fernando, témoignent encore, hantés mais debout.

Travel with us to the high Andes of Cusco, Peru searching for folk tales with author Johnny Payne. Many know of Machu Picchu, but few Americans have heard the oral stories of the indigenous people who reside in the shadows of the 15th-century Inca citadel.

O Diretor executivo do Movimento Pró-Logística, Edeon Vaz Ferreira, analisa a viabilidade de construção dessa Ferrovia do Brasil até o Peru, passando pela Cordilheira dos Andes.

In this episode, social media chef and queen of potatoes, Poppy O'Toole, explores the world of her favourite ingredient, the Potato. Last year, Poppy appeared on Mastermind, choosing the history of the potato as her specialist subject. Let's just say… it didn't quite go to plan. So now, she's joining the team at The Food Programme to fill in the gaps in her knowledge.Along the way, she meets historian Professor Rebecca Earle from the University of Warwick, who explains how potatoes travelled from the Andes to Europe. She visits Lima, a Peruvian restaurant in London, where she speaks with sous chef William Coz about how potatoes remain central to Peruvian cuisine. Dr Stef de Haan from the International Potato Center shares how Peru continues to cultivate thousands of potato varieties.In Suffolk, Poppy visits James Foskett's farm to discover how he grows both organic and conventional potatoes. And she speaks with Dr Jean Beagle Ristaino—known by some as “the Sherlock of Spuds”—about her work investigating the pathogen behind the Irish Potato Famine.The programme includes archive from Mastermind which is co-produced for BBC 2 by Hindsight and Hat Trick.Presented by Poppy O'Toole Produced for BBC Audio in Bristol by Natalie Donovan

From “one of America's smartest and most charming writers” (NPR), an archaeological romp through the entire history of humankind—and through all five senses—from tropical Polynesian islands to forbidding arctic ice floes, and everywhere in between.Whether it's the mighty pyramids of Egypt or the majestic temples of Mexico, we have a good idea of what the past looked like. But what about our other senses: The tang of Roman fish sauce and the springy crust of Egyptian sourdough? The boom of medieval cannons and the clash of Viking swords? The frenzied plays of an Aztec ballgame…and the chilling reality that the losers might also lose their lives? History often neglects the tastes, textures, sounds, and smells that were an intimate part of our ancestors' lives, but a new generation of researchers is resurrecting those hidden details, pioneering an exciting new discipline called experimental archaeology. These are scientists gone rogue: They make human mummies. They investigate the unsolved murders of ancient bog bodies. They carve primitive spears and go hunting, then knap their own obsidian blades to skin the game. They build perilous boats and plunge out onto the open sea—all in the name of experiencing history as it was, with all its dangers, disappointments, and unexpected delights. Beloved author Sam Kean joins these experimental archaeologists on their adventures across the globe, from the Andes to the South Seas. He fires medieval catapults, tries his hand at ancient surgery and tattooing, builds Roman-style roads—and, in novelistic interludes, spins gripping tales about the lives of our ancestors with vivid imagination and his signature meticulous research. Lively, offbeat, and filled with stunning revelations about our past, Dinner with King Tut sheds light on days long gone and the intrepid experts resurrecting them today, with startling, lifelike detail and more than a few laughs along the way.Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://brandyschillace.com/peculiar/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Newsletter: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://eepurl.com/ixJJ2Y⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/PeculiarBookClub/membership⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Youtube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@PeculiarBookClub/streams⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Bluesky: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@peculiarbookclub.bsky.social⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠facebook.com/groups/peculiarbooksclub⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@thepeculiarbookclub⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

This week I'm taking a look at Bigfoot sightings in South America! Most people associate Sasquatch with the North American continent, but South America has its share of mysterious hairy humanoid sightings as well. A trucker sees a large, hairy ape-man in the Andes of Chile. Hunters spot a large hairy animal stand up on two legs and run away as they start shooting. A Brazilian man wakes up to find a one-eyes Mapinguari in his cabin roaring. All these stories and more are explored here, as well as the legends and folklore of these creatures, and I question if this cryptid isn't actually Bigfoot but an entirely different cryptid! Do you think Bigfoot or similar creatures roam the varied terrains of South America?

In this episode, I'm taking you along on the first half of my 9-day adventure through Peru with Intrepid Travel. From the bustling streets of Lima to the breathtaking ruins of Machu Picchu, I'm sharing what it was really like to experience this unforgettable trip.We start in Lima, Peru's vibrant capital, exploring Chinatown and the historic Plaza de Armas. Then, we head to Cusco—the former Inca capital—where I quickly fall in love with its cobblestone streets, colorful markets, and mountain views (plus some tips for navigating the 11,000-foot altitude).Next up is the Sacred Valley. I share highlights like feeding alpacas at Manos de la Comunidad, visiting the ancient Pisac ruins, enjoying a meal with local Andean women, and supporting single mothers through a social enterprise café in Urubamba.And of course—Machu Picchu. I give a behind-the-scenes look at what it's like to visit one of the Seven Wonders of the World, from the early morning bus ride to the awe-inspiring ruins perched high in the Andes.Whether you're dreaming of visiting Peru or curious about what it's like to travel with Intrepid, this episode is packed with practical travel tips, personal reflections, and inspiration to explore this incredible part of the world.

Not long ago, conditions like Alzheimer's were rare, but today, nearly one in two people over 80 are diagnosed with it. In contrast, in places like the Amazon, dementia affects only about one in a hundred—highlighting how modern lifestyle plays a major role in brain health. The brain isn't an isolated organ; it's deeply influenced by diet, sleep, movement, stress, toxins, and emotional well-being. Many people who once struggled with brain fog, depression, or memory loss have experienced dramatic improvements by healing their bodies—addressing gut health, detoxifying harmful substances, optimizing nutrition, and supporting the brain's energy systems. With the right tools, including targeted nutrients, lifestyle changes, and even therapies like breathwork or plant medicines, it's now possible not only to protect the brain from decline but also to enhance clarity, focus, and resilience at any age. In this episode, I discuss, along with Dr. Daniel Amen and Alberto Villoldo, how the body and brain are intimately connected and how we can think and feel better when we address our overall health first. Dr. Daniel Amen is a physician, double board-certified psychiatrist, twelve-time NY Times bestselling author, and founder and CEO of Amen Clinics, with 10 US locations. Dr. Amen is the author of many books including the mega-bestseller Change Your Brain, Change Your Life, as well as The End of Mental Illness, Memory Rescue, Healing ADD, and Your Brain Is Always Listening. In March 2022, Tyndale will publish his new book, You, Happier: The 7 Neuroscience Secrets of Feeling Good Based on Your Brain Type.   Alberto Villoldo, Ph.D., is a medical anthropologist, psychologist and shaman, who studied the spiritual practices of the Amazon and the Andes for more than 30 years. While at San Francisco State University, he founded the Biological Self-Regulation Laboratory to study how the mind creates psychosomatic health and disease.  Founder of The Four Winds Society, he instructs individuals throughout the world in the practice of energy medicine. Dr. Villoldo has written numerous bestselling books, including Power Up Your Brain: The Neuroscience of Enlightenment (with David Perlmutter MD), Shaman, Healer, Sage; and WSJ bestseller One Spirit Medicine.   This episode is brought to you by BIOptimizers.

¿Qué pasa con los territorios que han vivido del petróleo cuando el mundo deja de necesitarlo?En este episodio escucharemos voces desde el Putumayo y el Meta, dos regiones colombianas profundamente ligadas a los hidrocarburos, que hoy enfrentan el desafío de imaginar un futuro energético distinto.A través de los testimonios de líderes comunitarios, campesinas, jóvenes y expertos, exploramos que una transición energética verdaderamente justa no solo significa cambiar la fuente de energía, sino transformar la economía, la política y la vida cotidiana de miles de personas.El podcast Geografías de la transición hace parte del proyecto Bases para la diversificación productiva y la transición energética justa en Putumayo y Meta.Una producción de 070 podcasts y el Centro Interdisciplinario de Estudios sobre Desarrollo (CIDER) de la Universidad de los Andes, con apoyo del Natural Resource Governance Institute, NRGI.

***Producer's note: This is a preview of the latest episode of Kuskalla, a trilingual (Quechua-Spanish-English) podcast produced by Red Media and hosted by our comrades Yojana Miraya Oscco and Renzo Aroni. Listen to the full episode on the Kuskalla podcast feed*** In this episode, I talked with Jonathan Ritter, who is the Associate Professor of Ethnomusicology and Chair of the Department of Music at the University of California, Riverside. We discussed his viral Quechua Pumpin song “Karumanta Qamurqani” (I have come from far away).  Characterized by a carnivalesque style, Pumpin is often interpreted as testimonial music from the Fajardo province in Ayacucho, a central region deeply impacted by the Peruvian internal armed conflict between the Maoist Shining Path guerrillas and Peruvian state security forces, lasting from 1980 to 2000. This conflict resulted in nearly 70,000 deaths, primarily affecting Quechua-speaking Indigenous peasants in this region, as noted in the 2003 report of Peru's Truth and Reconciliation Commission. In 2001, shortly after the conflict ended, the Truth Commission began its efforts in communities throughout the Pampas River valley in central Ayacucho, where the Pumpin enjoys popularity. A year earlier, Jonathan Ritter started his fieldwork in the village of Colca for his dissertation focused on this music. After mastering the Pumpin guitar, he composed his song “Karumanta Qamurqani” to perform at the newly relaunched Pumpin contest held on the Waswantu plateau in February 2001. This contest had been on hold since 1983 when government security forces shut it down, targeting locals for allegedly supporting the Shining Path guerrillas. In February 2002, he performed his song again, and Asto Producciones filmed it for the first time on video cassette. In this episode, we talk about how Pumpin transforms from traditional music into a powerful form of testimony that recounts wartime experiences and survival in the aftermath. We then examine the lyrics of “Karumanta Qamurqani,” discussing their meanings and the song's reception both during the live performance in Waswantu and after its 2008 upload to YouTube. The response from Peruvians sheds light on issues of race, class, and identity, as well as the reclamation of Quechua language and culture in the post-war context.  This episode is dedicated to Alejandro Mendonza Alca from Colca, Jonathan Ritter's mentor and maestro of Pumpin, who sadly passed away a few years ago.

From greenwashed marketing campaigns to the real, tangible challenges of sourcing natural materials and overhauling entrenched supply chains, creating truly sustainable clothing is no small feat. And no one knows this better than today's guests: Meli and Rensso Hinostroza, the sibling co-founders behind Arms of Andes.Born in California and raised between the U.S. and Peru, Meli and Rensso have built a brand rooted in their heritage and a mission to reconnect people with nature through minimalist, purpose-driven design. Specializing in alpaca wool apparel, they're confronting the realities of working within a global manufacturing system that wasn't built for sustainability.In this conversation, we explore what it actually takes to make garments from 100% natural fibers, how to navigate trade-offs between durability, performance, and environmental impact, and how brands can (and should) communicate sustainability claims with honesty. If you've ever wondered what goes into making that "eco-friendly" base layer you bought for your last backpacking trip, or how to spot genuine sustainability from greenwashed marketing, this is an episode you won't want to miss.INSTAGRAM: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/outdoor.minimalist.book/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠WEBSITE: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.theoutdoorminimalist.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YOUTUBE: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@theoutdoorminimalist⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LISTENER SURVEY: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://forms.gle/jd8UCN2LL3AQst976⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠-----------------Arms of Andes Website: https://armsofandes.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/armsofandesTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@armsofandesFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/armsofandes

Q'eswachaka is the last Incan rope bridge. It's located down in a valley in the Andes mountains of Peru. And in early June, the residents of four Quechua communities hold a three-day-long festival, where they rebuild the bridge from scratch.This is not just a task to be done, but an ancestral ceremony. A means of holding on to their traditions and the story—resisting modernity and the passage of time, by preserving this piece of their history and their culture.The bridge itself is a symbol of the community's connection to their past, to their ancestors, to the next generations, to the land… and to Mother Earth. This is episode 48 of Stories of Resistance—a podcast co-produced by The Real News and Global Exchange. Independent investigative journalism, supported by Global Exchange's Human Rights in Action program. Each week, we'll bring you stories of resistance like this.
