Building a Relationship with Self: Lessons from the AndesWhat does it actually look like to trust your intuition when everything in you wants to play it safe?In this vulnerable solo episode from Peru, I share the real, messy process of deepening the relationship with myself after selling everything and moving to South America.

Juan Ramon Matta Ballesteros began life as a pickpocket in his hometown of Tegucigalpa, before heading out on the perilous border roads of Latin America as an emerald smuggler. Soon he was making friends in high places, scoring deals on consignments of cocaine - and connecting coca producers in the Andes with up-and-coming narcos in Mexico. All the while, Matta forged ties with the elites and corrupt soldiers who'd run Honduras for a century, capturing the small state and ensuring its future as a coup-happy transshipment point for years to come. But when Matta took part in the narco world's most notorious murder, in 1985, his world came crashing down. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In the late 1700s, Indigenous peoples in the Spanish colonies of the Andes were forced to work for the Spanish. They tilled the land, worked in the textile mills and the mines. Those that didn't faced heavy taxes. But in early November 1780, Indigenous Incan leader Tupac Amaru II led an uprising against the Spanish that he hoped would end it all.It was the largest revolt against colonial Spain. Thousands would join the months-long rebellion. It would inspire uprisings elsewhere across the continent, and independence leaders. South America would gain its freedom from Spain just 40 years later.BIG NEWS! This podcast has won Gold in this year's Signal Awards for best history podcast! It's a huge honor.

https://vimeo.com/1131876810?share=copy&fl=sv&fe=ci As we look around the world today, there's so much going on that is traumatizing so many people, and we're seeing all these repeating patterns of human history, and you might wonder, have we learned anything from the past? Why do we keep repeating these things? What's going on? And it's possible, it's just possible, for a moment, that what's happening is actually calling us back to wholeness. That all these traumas are actually some kind of evolutionary intelligence, a sacred survival mechanism that, when we meet with compassion and presence, can become a gateway to wholeness. And we're gonna hear about that today from our guest, Michael Stone, who is the author of the book "Traumatized: A Love Story, Healing the Wounds That Separate, Alienate, and Marginalize Us."  Tune in, to find out more! Michael Stone was born committed to healing.  Michael has led many transformational programs. He is a Gestalt Awareness practitioner, certified as a  5Rhythms Teacher, Trance Dance and Soul Motion.   Michael Stone was a faculty member of The Shift Network and currently offers workshops and healing circles. Watch or listen to the show to discover ways to connect with community,  integrate trauma and heal your soul. You're Invited!

Still waiting to be met and embraced. My story is just one thread in a much larger tapestry of human resilience and return. Healing begins when we stop pathologizing trauma and start listening to our bodies.   MICHAEL STONE BIO Michael Stone is a spiritual teacher, author, and organizational consultant whose work integrates modern trauma understanding with ancient practices of soul healing. For more than five decades, he has led individuals and groups through processes of awakening, embodiment, and transformation. As a trauma integration facilitator, and author of "Traumatized: A Love Story – Healing the Wounds that Separate, Alienate, and Marginalize Us"s, Michael's work reframes trauma not as a flaw to be fixed, but as an intelligent, sacred response—a misunderstood love story embedded in our nervous systems, calling us back to wholeness. Drawing from his background in Gestalt psychology, somatic awareness, and shamanic traditions, Michael's teachings illuminate trauma as an evolutionary intelligence—a sacred survival mechanism that, when met with compassion and presence, becomes a gateway to wholeness. Through his Healing & Integration Circles, retreats, and mentorship programs, he supports people in releasing inherited wounds and reclaiming the creative vitality of the nervous system. A lifelong student of teachers such as Thomas Hübl, Gabrielle Roth, and Sandra Ingerman, Michael bridges science, mysticism, and human connection to address the wounds of separation within the individual, the family system, and the collective field. His recent book, "Traumatized: A Love Story — Healing the Wounds that Separate, Alienate, and Marginalize Us", offers a powerful vision of how love, awareness, and embodied community can restore balance in a fragmented world.

This week on Hold Your Fire!, Richard talks with Crisis Group experts Phil Gunson and Renata Segura about U.S. military build-up off Venezuela's coast, strikes on alleged drug smuggling boats and whether Washington could depose Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro.In this episode of Hold Your Fire!, Richard speaks with Crisis Group's Venezuela and Andes expert Phil Gunson and Latin America & Caribbean director Renata Segura about the escalating tensions between the U.S. and Venezuela. They assess the large-scale military build-up off Venezuela's coast, officially framed as a counter-narcotics operation but widely seen as part of a broader campaign to pressure Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro. They unpack U.S. strikes on suspected drug smuggling boats and how effective such measures are in curbing the narcotics trade. They talk about the evolution of U.S. policy toward Venezuela, divisions within Donald Trump's team over policy and how Venezuelans view the latest escalation. They look at the role of Venezuela's military and armed groups and how they might respond to foreign intervention. Finally, they consider Washington's next steps and assess Trump's approach to the Western hemisphere more broadly and how Latin American leaders view his policies.

  Where in the world am I? In San Diego, talking about Machu Picchu Are there any tips to help me avoid being cheated or robbed while traveling? Yes, you can take precautions like removing your expensive jewelry before traveling and not carrying expensive purses or shoes. Don't look like a target. Look like you belong, and try not to stand out from the usual crowd. Check reviews of any Airbnb or turo car rentals you book. Be careful not to walk alone in the dark at night, as much as possible. Think of the odds whenever you go out. Please put them in your favor, not a criminal. If you like today's Confidence Challenge, my book series dives deeper into safety and security while traveling solo—link in description""  See Book A for addressing this challenge. You can find it on our website​​ at https://www.5stepstosolotravel.com/ or on Amazon; it's a several-part series. Today's special destination is: Machu Picchu, Peru. I finally got there, after so many years of wanting to visit. And I had a great time. I hope the same goes for you. Peru is a wonderful place, but you do need to be prepared, and I was. I t'ss almost always a good time to book your ticket to Machu Picchu. So book it now if you are planning it. There is a daily cap of 5600 people. Once you get there, it will be too late to reserve a ticket. You could get lucky, so if you're in an emergency, you may be able to obtain one from a broker, but that will incur an additional cost. I was delaying the purchase for a few weeks, and I'm glad I booked my tour three months in advance. The tickets are not expensive, but it may be a challenge to afford them. I found a travel agency, but they wouldn't accept my credit card over the phone, and when I tried to set up a Western Union money transfer, it was a terrible experience. I'll share that in my mistakes later on. https://www.ticketmachupicchu.com/ticket-machu-picchu-2019/ Machu Picchu tips and insights on the travel for you. Step What to do Tips & costs 1. Tickets (book now!) Buy on Tuboleto.c ultura .pe – choose Circuit 2B (Classic Lower Terrace) for the iconic postcard view with moderate stairs. Cost 172 PEN ≈ US $45. Sales for 2025 opened on 19 Dec 2024; the daily cap is 5,600, so June slots sell out early. Peru RailEl País 2. Train 06:10 Inca Rail or 07:45 PeruRail Expedition from Ollantaytambo to Aguas Calientes; arrive 08:30‑09:30. Sit on the left‑hand side for Urubamba River views. Peru Rail 3. Bus up Buy a Consettur round-trip ticket (US$24) at the kiosk the night before; the first buses roll at 05:30, with a 25-minute ride. Ticket to Machu Picchu   4. Entry window Aim for the 09:00–10:00 slot (good light, less 6 am crowd, still before midday haze). Passport, ticket & small day pack only. My ticket was in the afternoon, and for that it was great. It was hazy that morning, I was told.         6. Optional short hike Huchuy Picchu add‑on (easy 1 km, 30‑40 min, extra 48 PEN) – great summit photo without the steep drop of Huayna Picchu. Ticket to Machu Picchu   7. Lunch & return Picnic outside the gate (no food inside), stamp passport, bus down, 16:20 train back to Cusco (arr. 20:30), or stay one more night at Aguas Calientes if you prefer a slower pace.   Packing checklist: passport, printed tickets, layers (for cool mornings/hot sun), rain shell, 1 L refillable bottle (no disposables), DEET, sunblock, walking poles with rubber tips, cash for snacks & toilets (2 soles). Quick Tips for a Smooth Trip Book everything online in advance, including flights, trains, Machu Picchu tickets, and buses, to avoid lines and secure cheaper fares. Cash is still king in small villages—carry small bills; ATMs are plentiful in Cusco. Solo safety basics: use registered taxis (Taxi Beat or Cabify apps), avoid isolated beach areas at night, and keep photocopies of your passport in separate bags. Enjoy Peru's vibrant coast, Andean culture, and the wonder of Machu Picchu—then you'll be perfectly primed for Brazil's beaches a few days later. ¡Buen viaje! Hard to use Western Union for a payment to my travel expert. Very challenging. It didn't happen; I brought it in person to Cusco. Paid by CC in person, but not to the travel agent. She had to find someone willing to accept the credit card payment in another shop. It was both a great deal and a great pain. The total cost was only $275.Here's a breakdown of my trip to Machu Picchu Machu Picchu: My One-Day Experience (start/finish in Cusco) Timeline & logistics 03:00 woke up; 03:30 ready; 04:00 pickup. Bus from Cusco → Ollantaytambo, then train to Aguas Calientes (Machu Picchu Pueblo)—you even shared the carriage with a few actors. Reached town around 08:30 in the rain; explored, then rented a bathing suit and towel and relaxed at the hot springs (20 soles entry; 5 soles suit; 5 soles towel). Met Eduardo, my English-speaking guide from Cusco (now living locally). I treated him to tea before we got started. Noon: lined up for Machu Picchu entry; private tour from ~12:00–16:30. You tipped 50 soles—he was excellent. The weather shifted from rain to cloudy to sunny, perfect for walking among the ruins. Stats: ~48 flights of stairs and 6.4 miles walked; lots of steps. Afterward, enjoy a massage (~$20), a chocolate bar, and plenty of water before heading back to Cusco at around 11 pm. It was a long, but so valued day. What I saw & felt The town is small: church (Virgen del Carmen, where I said prayers), district offices, train stations, and police clustered together. Wildlife moments: five llamas, including a 3-day-old nursing and another 3-month-old—adorable. The scenery felt grand and expansive—it reminded you of Yosemite for its scale, but with open, terraced mountains rather than dense trees. Photos turned out great. You loved the entire experience and happily checked off another of the Seven Wonders of the World. Language tidbit from your guide:"'ach'= old, 'icch'= mountain. You noticed so many other peaks around the citadel. What I learned….. The tour weaved together the Incas' worship, daily life, food, farming practices (especially corn/maize), and burial customs—you noted that mostly women's skeletons were found in the areas you discussed with your guide. Inca history (brief context): The Inca civilization flourished in the 15th–early 16th centuries across the Andes, constructing extraordinary stone architecture and terraced agriculture without the use of iron or the wheel. Machu Picchu itself sat hidden in the mountains for centuries, its location contributing to its preservation until its 20th-century reintroduction to global attention. The expansive mountain range around the site made it feel concealed and sacred, "hidden for centuries," much like the aura people describe with Angkor Wat (your comparison). Small moments that mattered Tea with Eduardo (my treat) set a relaxed rhythm for the afternoon, and since it was raining, it gave me a chance to dry out. Hot springs soak before the ruins helped counter the early start and altitude. I loved that I could rent a bathing suit for the morning. That was a first. The hot springs were soothing and an unexpected pleasure. Bring your suit if you remember. Private guiding made the history feel personal and clear. I thought I would be in a group, but this was a private tour. One-line takeaway A long, early start bloomed into a perfectly paced day—rain to sun, hot springs to high terraces—guided insight, baby llamas, countless stairs, and a deep, peaceful sense of awe among the Incas'""old mountain" Connect with Dr. Travelbest 5 Steps to Solo Travel website Dr. Mary Travelbest X Dr. Mary Travelbest Facebook Page Dr. Mary Travelbest Facebook Group Dr. Mary Travelbest Instagram Dr. Mary Travelbest Podcast Dr. Travelbest on TikTok Dr.Travelbest on YouTube In the news  

This bonus content is a reading from Platypus, the CASTAC Blog. The full post by Martina Di Tullio can be read at https://blog.castac.org/2025/10/the-ones-who-walk-away-from-the-internet/. About the post: In the Andean cosmovision, constellations are not formed by connecting the dots of stars, but rather from the spaces of darkness in the night sky. The most important one is the Yakana, shaped like a llama —the most essential animal for life in the Andes. What might be seen as void, then, can reveal as much as, or even more than, the brightest star. This brief text reflects on the relevance of attending to those spaces, moments, and situations that remain undigitized in order to understand the social role of digital technologies and how they shape our lives. Much like the dark voids that give form to Andean constellations, these intervals can illuminate dimensions of existence that are otherwise overshadowed by the glow of the screens.

TESTO DELL'ARTICOLO ➜ https://www.bastabugie.it/8331LA BAMBINA CHE SALVO' LA MADRE DA UNA VITA DI PECCATO di Marco e Caterina Vinciguerra Laura del Carmen Vicuña Pino nacque a Santiago del Cile il 5 aprile del 1891 da José Domingo, un militare in carriera di nobile famiglia, e da Mercedes Pino, una sarta di umili origini.Nell'anno della sua nascita, in Cile scoppiò una guerra civile e, a causa delle differenti idee politiche, la famiglia Vicuña fu costretta a fuggire verso il sud del paese stabilendosi nel piccolo borgo di Temuco e qui, tra tantissime difficoltà, nacque la sorellina di Laura, Giulia Amanda.Tre anni dopo il papà di Laura morì e la moglie, per le gravi difficoltà economiche, come era usanza comune a quei tempi, decise di andare in Argentina "a cercare fortuna" con le due figlie di 8 e 3 anni.Donna Mercedes aveva un solo desiderio: lavorare per mantenere e dare un futuro alle sue figlie. Per avere un buon tenore di vita e garantire gli studi alle figlie, accettò di convivere con il ricco imprenditore agricolo Manuel Mora. Per questo la famiglia Vicuña andò a vivere in uno dei possedimenti di Mora a Quilquihuè. Nel 1900 Donna Mercedes iscrisse le figlie a Junìn de los Andes in una missione-scuola aperta da poco delle Figlie di Maria Ausiliatrice, il ramo femminile dei Salesiani fondato da San Giovanni Bosco.In collegio Laura, stando con le suore e grazie anche al suo confessore, don Augusto Crestanello, imparò come vivere con Gesù. Da subito si distinse per la volenterosa applicazione nello studio, per la bontà e la generosità nell'aiutare gli altri e per l'intensità della sua vita interiore.L'UNICO SCOPO DELLA SUA VITAUn giorno, ascoltando una lezione di catechismo sul sacramento del Matrimonio, Laura comprese la situazione di peccato nella quale viveva la mamma, capì anche perché durante le vacanze alla fattoria la madre non si accostava ai sacramenti e perché la facesse pregare di nascosto. Da questo momento la salvezza della mamma diventò per Laura l'unico scopo della sua vita: intensificò la preghiera, cercò tutte le occasioni per fare sacrifici a tal punto che per la mamma offrì la sua vita a Dio.Non potendo essere ammessa ufficialmente come postulante delle Figlie di Maria Ausiliatrice a causa della condotta della madre, Laura, nel 1902, a soli 12 anni, fece in forma privata i voti di povertà, castità e obbedienza impegnandosi a ricevere tutti i giorni Gesù nella santa Comunione e a confessarsi frequentemente.Durante le vacanze scolastiche le due sorelle tornavano a casa e Mora, invaghitosi di Laura, più volte cercò di corromperla, ma la ragazza lo respinse sempre. Per vendicarsi, Mora decise di non pagare più la retta del collegio alle due sorelle. Ciò nonostante le due ragazze, per via della loro difficile situazione familiare, furono accolte lo stesso dalla scuola, però non più come semplici scolare ma come interne addette alla casa delle suore con dei compiti da svolgere.In seguito, per aver aiutato le suore a mettere in salvo le compagne di scuola in seguito a una grande inondazione, Laura si ammalò gravemente.UNA VITA OFFERTASolo sul letto di morte Laura confessò alla madre di aver offerto la propria vita in cambio del suo ritorno alla fede cristiana e le fece promettere di tornare a vivere in grazia di Dio. Laura morì giovanissima il 22 gennaio 1904, non aveva ancora compiuto 13 anni! La mamma mantenne la parola data alla figlia morente: lasciò Mora, dopo essersi confessata.Laura fu beatificata da Giovanni Paolo II il 3 settembre 1988 e la sua salma è venerata nella cappella delle Figlie di Maria Ausiliatrice a Bahìa Blanca in Argentina.Questa ragazza soltanto in apparenza può sembrare come tante altre ragazze: la sua vita è un esempio di fede incrollabile. È determinata nel suo proposito: «O mio Dio, voglio amarti e servirti per tutta la vita; perciò ti dono la mia anima, il mio cuore, tutto il mio essere. Voglio morire piuttosto che offenderti col peccato».Durante le attività ordinarie Laura diceva: «Per me pregare o lavorare è la medesima cosa; è lo stesso pregare o giocare, pregare o dormire. Facendo quello che mi viene chiesto di fare, compio quello che Dio vuole che io faccia, ed è questo che io voglio fare; questa è la mia migliore preghiera».La sua testimonianza di amore e speranza mostra come la preghiera possa trasformare le difficoltà in opportunità di grazia e insegna a non arrenderci mai. La sua vita ci ricorda che ogni difficoltà può essere affrontata con la fede e che possiamo diventare strumenti di amore e di consolazione per chi ci circonda.

As technology continues to evolve at a rapid pace, the ways in which people, governments, and other entities engage with it morph right along with these generational changes. This is true for the current wave of protests sweeping the globe that got its start in countries from the Andes to the Himalayas. What ties these protests together are not only the demands for a better future, in each country's context, but also the marrying of A.I. with social media to mobilize at hyper-speed. From Nepal, to Madagascar, to Peru and beyond, people are jumping online to then organize and bring people to the streets in protest of the "nepo-babies", living standards, and a lack of a clear path to a better future. In this month's episode we speak with Dr. Janjira Sombatpoonsiri, a Research Fellow at the German Institute for Global and Area Studies, about the features of these protests, what ties them together, and what drives them to change. Looking at the issues of how social media can be used to organize or infiltrate, provide anonymity or easy tracking, and a open playground for manipulation and rage. These trends have all been supercharged over the past several years, as Artificial Intelligence has allowed protest movements and governments to amplify their own messages at the speed of thought, creating catchy graphics, videos, and re-post chains that brings the fight online. Dr. Janjira Sombatpoonsiri is a political scientist whose work sheds light on how people organize, resist, and find their voices under authoritarian pressure. Based at the Institute of Asian Studies at Chulalongkorn University in Thailand and as a Research Fellow with the German Institute for Global and Area Studies, she studies social movements, digital repression, and nonviolent activism across Southeast Asia. The author of Humor and Nonviolent Struggle in Serbia, Dr. Sombatpoonsiri brings a unique perspective on how creativity and courage shape movements for change in today's complex political landscape. 

Harrison Viers Newberry has spent decades searching for life's deepest truths. After early success in corporate America, he faced unimaginable loss—losing his entire family in quick succession. Struggling with grief and alcoholism, he nearly gave up before finding salvation through a spiritual awakening that completely transformed his life.Drawing from his inner journey, Harrison rebuilt himself, launching a successful nationwide consulting business and later finding lasting love with his wife of over thirty-five years. His search for enlightenment took him across the Andes and into the Amazon, where he studied the ancient teachings of the Q'ero people of Peru.After losing his right foot in an accident, Harrison again turned tragedy into purpose, devoting himself fully to writing and research. Through this work, he uncovered profound insights into human happiness and the spiritual evolution of humanity. Today, his mission is to share those discoveries and guide others toward the lasting peace and joy he finally found within.https://a.co/d/8fP4vEwhttps://www.instagram.com/harrisonviers?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==Represented by Joseph A.

Donald Trump no ejecutó este lunes su amenaza de decretar nuevos aranceles a las exportaciones colombianas pero tampoco la ha retirado. Además, el día terminó con un encuentro entre el presidente Gustavo Petro y John McNamara, embajador interino estadounidense, lo que marca un respiro en la crisis entre Colombia y Estados Unidos, un día después de su fuerte choque con Donald Trump. Recordemos que el despliegue estadounidense en aguas del caribe ha matado ya 30 personas que Washington considera pertenecen a carteles de droga venezolanos y a la guerrilla colombiana del Ejército de Liberación Nacional. Petro sin embargo ha denunciado que estas operaciones no se produjeron en aguas internacionales, sino en aguas colombianas, violando así la soberanía del país. La maraña de insultos cruzados entre Donald Trump y Gustavo Petro apenas deja entrever los estrechos lazos que aún mantienen Estados Unidos y Colombia en materia de comercio, migración y seguridad. Las operaciones militares desplegadas por Trump en el Caribe son contrarias al derecho internacional, pero eso no parece un problema para el presidente estadounidense.  “Sin duda, se trataría de una violación al derecho internacional. Sería un irrespeto a la soberanía territorial colombiana, porque eso sería mar territorial colombiano, si efectivamente el gobierno colombiano logra probar que tuvo lugar esa incursión“, explica a RFI Sandra Borda, politóloga y profesora de Ciencias Políticas en la Universidad de los Andes en Colombia.  “No sería la primera violación al derecho internacional desde el despliegue de la flotilla en el Caribe Internacional por parte de Estados Unidos, porque lo que ha estado cometiendo Estados Unidos con los tripulantes de estas lanchas que en teoría están transportando droga, son ejecuciones extrajudiciales que también están prohibidas por el derecho internacional humanitario”, añade.  De acuerdo con su análisis, estas operaciones responden a una estrategia de Trump para involucrar a varios gobiernos de América Latina con el tráfico de drogas, lo que le sirve de excusa para llevarlas a cabo sin la aprobación del Congreso estadounidense. Primero lo hizo con el presidente venezolano Nicolás Maduro y ahora sin escrúpulos, ha calificado a Petro de líder narcotraficante acusándolo de fomentar los cultivos ilegales.  “Es un mecanismo de disuasión. Es un mecanismo de retaliación fuertísimo que está destinado a mostrar el músculo de Estados Unidos en la región. A retornar a las épocas en las que había un tutelaje claro de Estados Unidos sobre los países latinoamericanos y a dejar en claro cuáles son las consecuencias si no hay sumisión frente a eso”, asegura la especialista.  Donald Trump amenaza a Petro con suspender la ayuda financiera a Colombia, el país latinoamericano que más fondos recibe de Estados Unidos, más de 740 millones de dólares en 2023, de los cuales la mitad se destinan a la lucha antidrogas. Frente a esto, Gustavo Petro ha elevado el tono comparando a Trump con Hitler e incitando a darle un golpe de Estado.  “Petro ya no tiene nada que perder electoralmente hablando y está en proceso de gestar su liderazgo internacional justamente oponiéndose a Trump. Y el problema que tenemos es que a este paso, el daño que le pueden causar a la relación binacional puede ser un daño irreparable”, advierte Borda. A falta de diplomacia, las relaciones entre Colombia y Estados Unidos están en la cuerda floja y la alianza entre ambos países irreconocible.

La inteligencia artificial ya no es solo una promesa del futuro: hoy se usa en hospitales y clínicas para apoyar decisiones que antes eran exclusivas de los médicos. Desde corregir recetas en tiempo real hasta diseñar tratamientos más seguros y personalizados, la IA ya está transformando la medicina.Pero cuando una máquina empieza a tomar decisiones sobre la salud —y la vida— de las personas, los principios clásicos de la bioética, como la autonomía, la justicia o la no maleficencia, entran en tensión.En este episodio de IA, luego existo la 4ta temporada de Clase a la Casa, hablamos sobre los dilemas éticos de usar inteligencia artificial en medicina. Y lo hacemos con dos invitados que ya están trabajando con IA en sus campos:Iván Felipe Gutiérrez, infectólogo pediatra, implementó un sistema que revisa automáticamente las fórmulas médicas de antibióticos en clínicas en Bogotá.Y Ricardo Alfonso Peña Silva, profesor de medicina y doctor en farmacología, investiga cómo la IA puede mejorar la eficacia y seguridad de los tratamientos médicos.Una producción de 070 Podcasts y la Dirección de Comunicaciones de la Universidad de los Andes.

Nobel in Medicine for a leash on our immune systemOur immune system has enormous power to defend us against the wide range of pathogens and invaders that nature sends at us. But it's a double-edged sword, and can target its powerful weapons against us as well. This year's Nobel prize in Medicine or Physiology went to a group who discovered a critical mechanism that keeps the immune system in check, under normal circumstances, giving them new insights into the diseases that occur when it goes wrong.Yogurt with a creepy-crawly secret ingredientA team of researchers has duplicated an ancient recipe for yogurt that uses a unique ingredient to initiate fermentation: ants. They added squished ants to fresh milk, buried it in an anthill to incubate it, and enjoyed zesty yogurt soon after. A microbiological analysis showed that the ants contributed a bacteria to the yogurt that is also present in sourdough starter.An ancestor of the largest dinosaurs was a dog-sized bipedResearchers have discovered a 230 million year old fossil high in the Andes of Argentina that is the precursor to the giant, long-necked sauropod dinosaurs like the iconic brontosaurus. This animal, however, is a two-legged herbivore that likely weighed less than 20 kilograms.Nobel in Physics for making particles ghostlyQuantum tunneling is a strange phenomenon in which subatomic particles can pass through apparently impenetrable objects like magic. This year's Nobel prize in physics was awarded to a team that discovered that this strange quantum phenomena can happen on larger scales too, and this has been exploited in all sorts of modern technology, including quantum computers.Neanderthals systematically rendered fat from animal bonesScientists think that the fragmented bones of hundreds of animals discovered at a neanderthal site in Germany represent the remains of a large-scale processing site where they extracted nutritious and useful fat. This could be used for a range of things, from skin protection to preserving meat similar to pemmican.Moose are hot. Are they bothered?During the fall rut moose, particularly the males, are very active searching for mates and competing with rivals. This activity generates a large amount of heat, which could be a problem as moose don't sweat. Scientists are investigating if, in a warmer climate, this might be interfering with their reproductive success.

The ancient Inca citadel of Macchu Picchu is one of the new Seven Wonders of the World, but still to this day, no one knows what it was for or why it was abandoned. Do Athena and Tiernan have the theory that unlocks the mysteries to this mystical place high in the Andes? Or just a lot of jokes about sneezing? It's up to you, our Chief Detectives, to decide!

¡Vótame en los Premios iVoox 2025! En una noche gélida de julio de 1972, en un bar perdido de Tierra del Fuego, un viejo enjuto llamado Julián Díez relata la verdadera historia de Rancho Hambre. Entre copas de whisky y el humo del tabaco, transporta a dos forasteros a los años 30, cuando un grupo de trabajadores quedó atrapado en la cordillera de los Andes bajo una implacable tormenta de nieve. Lo que comenzó como una expedición rutinaria se convirtió en una pesadilla de supervivencia donde el hambre llevó a los hombres más allá de todos los límites de lo humano. Xavi Villanueva regresa a DÍAS EXTRAÑOS con este estremecedor relato de Federico Rodríguez, un escritor argentino que nos sumerge en las profundidades más oscuras del alma humana cuando la muerte acecha y las decisiones imposibles se vuelven cotidianas. Una historia que te perseguirá mucho después de escucharla. Escucha el episodio completo en la app de iVoox, o descubre todo el catálogo de iVoox Originals

It was once called Columbus Day, and it still is in many parts. A day to celebrate the Italian explorer Christopher Columbus, who supposedly “discovered” America. But America was there long before Columbus came. And so were millions of people up and down the continent. Experts estimate that there were anywhere from 60–90 million people in the Americas at the time. Possibly even more people in the Americas than in Europe at the time. But disease and successive wars by waves of invading Europeans decimated the local Indigenous populations. Over the next century, roughly 90% of Indigenous peoples in the Western Hemisphere had been wiped out.But they have constantly resisted to this day.Please consider supporting this podcast and Michael Fox's reporting on his Patreon account: patreon.com/mfox.

This week, we're thrilled to welcome Terry Cumes, Managing Director of the world-renowned retreat center Willka T'ika, nestled in Peru's Sacred Valley of the Incas. Raised in the U.S. yet deeply rooted in the Andes through family and spirit, Terry bridges two worlds, blending modern Western sensibilities with the ancient wisdom of Andean cosmology.Terry takes us on a transformative journey through the lush landscapes and spiritual heart of the Sacred Valley, where mountains are revered as living deities and the Quechua people honor Pachamama, Mother Earth, through rituals of gratitude and reciprocity. He shares the remarkable story of his mother's vision to build Willka T'ika nearly 30 years ago, creating one of Peru's first luxury wellness sanctuaries devoted to yoga, nature, and the spiritual traditions of the Andes. What began as a family dream has evolved into a destination for seekers from around the world, drawn to its sacred gardens, ancient energy, and timeless wisdom.In this episode, we explore the essence of Andean cosmology, including its three worlds of spirit, earth, and underworld, its deep reverence for the mountains known as Apus, and the practice of ayni, a guiding principle of balance and reciprocity with the natural world. Terry also shares how his Western business training and his father's background in both medicine and shamanism inform his unique approach to leadership, wellness, and purpose.Join us for a rich and soulful conversation about finding harmony between modern life and ancient truth, reconnecting with the spirit of the earth, and discovering what it means to live in true reciprocity with the world around us.

Los puercoespines, una de las criaturas más adorables y dolorosas a la vez, captan la atención en toda su área de distribución mundial. En este artículo, Héctor Ramírez-Chaves y sus coautores describen una nueva especie de puercoespín de los Andes colombianos. El trabajo los ha llevado a recorrer diferentes ecosistemas y a numerosos museos internacionales. Mientras Héctor describe la increíble biodiversidad de Colombia, también aborda la importancia crucial de su trabajo. "Aún necesitamos estudiar a los roedores aquí en Colombia", afirma. "Hay muchos grupos de especies nuevos que no se han estudiado en absoluto porque no son muy carismáticos, por lo que se los descuida. No se los estudia y son muy importantes para el ecosistema. Por eso, necesitamos más atención en estos pequeños mamíferos".Si no quieres enamorarte de los puercoespines, ¡no escuches este episodio! La alegría de Héctor es contagiosa y la curiosidad de estos misteriosos roedores es irresistible.El artículo de Héctor Ramírez-Chaves, “Una revisión del complejo Puercoespín Quichua Coendou quichua (Rodentia: Erethizontidae) con la descripción de una nueva especie de Colombia”, se encuentra en el volumen 106, número 3, de la revista Journal of Mammalogy.Puede consultarse aquí: https://doi.org/10.1093/jmammal/gyae140Puede consultar la transcripción de este episodio aquí: Héctor Ramírez-Chaves - Transcripción en españolNueva especie: Coendou vossiCrédito de la imagen del episodio: Omar Daniel León AlvaradoVisite el laboratorio de Héctor en Instagram: @izbd_labY consulte su enlace para ver investigaciones recientes: https://linktr.ee/izbd_labSiga a Nuevas Especies en Bluesky (@newspeciespodcast.bsky.social) e Instagram (@NewSpeciesPodcast) y dale a "Me gusta" en la página del podcast en Facebook (www.facebook.com/NewSpeciesPodcast).La música de este podcast es "No More (Instrumental)", de HaTom (https://fanlink.to/HaTom).Si tienes preguntas o comentarios sobre este podcast, escríbenos a NewSpeciesPodcast@gmail.com.Si quieres apoyar este podcast y disfrutar de episodios extra, puedes hacerlo en https://www.patreon.com/NewSpeciesPod

In this second part of our conversation with Oliver Treviso, we explore his experiences in the final two countries of Colombia and Venezuela. By all accounts, Colombia and Venezuela were believed to be the most risky countries to hike the Andes in, but what did Oliver experience? And so, Richard McColl of the Colombia Calling podcast continues his conversation with Ollie Treviso, who shares his incredible journey hiking through South America. They discuss Oliver's experiences in Ecuador, the challenges he faced while crossing into Colombia, and the kindness he encountered along the way. Oliver reflects on the dangers he encountered, including a mugging, and the resilience he found in the people he met. The conversation also touches on his experiences in Venezuela, where he was welcomed warmly and even invited to speak at universities. As Oliver contemplates his future adventures, he emphasizes the importance of storytelling and the lessons learned from his journey.   The Colombia Briefing is reported by Emily Hart: https://substack.com/@ehart

Dans cet épisode, on reçoit Ludovic, qui, étudiant, a troqué l'amphi pour… l'asphalte.Son pari ? Un tour du monde 100 % en auto-stop. Pas un an. Pas deux. Cinq ans de stop, d'auto-stop, camion-stop, voilier-stop, cargo-stop… jusqu'au brise-glace-stop pour toucher l'Antarctique.Au compteur : 59 pays, 170 000 km, 1 300 conducteurs et une avalanche de rencontres qui vous réconcilient avec l'humanité.Des routes alsaciennes de ses débuts aux stations-service de Shanghai, des passes des Tuamotu aux falaises des Andes, du Sahara aux neiges du Sud, Ludovic raconte l'inattendu permanent : nuits sous tente, cuisines de fortune, traversées d'océans “à la dure”, détours imprévus, portes qui s'ouvrent… et ce rendez-vous improbable avec le Dalaï-Lama, chez lui, en Inde.Ce tour du monde est surtout un tour des hommes. Des familles qui hébergent, des marins qui embarquent un inconnu, des profs qui ouvrent leurs classes, des ONG qui changent la donne. On parle hospitalité renversante (Iran, Pakistan, Afghanistan), dialogues improbables, quiproquos de langue et ce “document magique” écrit dans 20 langues pour briser la glace en deux minutes.Il y a eu des sueurs froides : routes vertigineuses, conducteurs pressés, armes brandies par peur plus que par malveillance. Mais, surtout, il y a eu des milliers de gestes de bonté et cette conviction qui change une vie : “la grande majorité des gens sont honnêtes et gentils.”Ludovic partage sa méthode, simple et imparable : PPPPS — Propre, Poli, Patient, Persévérant, Souriant.Il nous raconte aussi pourquoi il préfère les stations-service au bas-côté, comment il choisit sa voiture, gère la sécurité, transforme une attente de 28 heures en cours de portugais accéléré, comment faire du voilier-stop (les bonnes saisons, où chercher), cargo, et ce qu'il faut (vraiment) mettre dans son sac pour tenir cinq ans… léger.Résultat : 350 conférences sur la route, un livre, une ONG… et même une histoire d'amour croisée en chemin.Retrouvez-nous sur @beauvoyage !**************************************Production : Sakti ProductionsMusique : Chase The Mississipi, Michael ShynesVous êtes une marque et vous souhaitez collaborer avec Beau Voyage ?

Quand on évoque les grandes civilisations précolombiennes, deux noms surgissent immédiatement : les Mayas et les Incas. Pourtant, si elles ont toutes deux marqué l'histoire de l'Amérique, elles sont très différentes dans leur localisation, leur organisation et leurs héritages.Les Mayas apparaissent bien avant les Incas. Leur civilisation se développe dès 2000 avant notre ère, dans les forêts tropicales du Yucatán, au sud du Mexique, ainsi qu'au Guatemala, au Belize et au Honduras actuels. Les Incas, eux, émergent beaucoup plus tard, au XIIIᵉ siècle, dans la cordillère des Andes, principalement au Pérou. Cette différence chronologique explique déjà un contraste : quand l'empire inca atteint son apogée au XVe siècle, les grandes cités mayas étaient déjà abandonnées depuis longtemps.Sur le plan politique, le contraste est frappant. Les Mayas n'avaient pas un empire unifié mais une mosaïque de cités-États indépendantes, comme Tikal, Palenque ou Copán, qui rivalisaient entre elles par des guerres et des alliances. Les Incas, au contraire, fondèrent un empire centralisé : le Tawantinsuyu. Depuis Cuzco, l'empereur, appelé le Sapa Inca, exerçait un pouvoir absolu sur des millions de sujets et un territoire immense s'étendant de la Colombie jusqu'au Chili.Sur le plan culturel, les Mayas brillèrent surtout par leur écriture et leurs connaissances scientifiques. Ils développèrent un système d'écriture hiéroglyphique complexe, unique en Amérique, qui permettait de noter aussi bien des événements politiques que des récits mythologiques. Ils élaborèrent également un calendrier extrêmement précis, basé sur l'astronomie, et laissèrent des monuments impressionnants comme les pyramides de Chichén Itzá. Les Incas, eux, ne connaissaient pas l'écriture. Pour conserver la mémoire des tributs ou des recensements, ils utilisaient les quipus, des cordelettes nouées dont les combinaisons servaient de code numérique. Leur génie s'exprima surtout dans l'ingénierie : routes pavées traversant les Andes, ponts suspendus, systèmes d'irrigation et villes perchées comme Machu Picchu.Enfin, leurs religions différaient. Les Mayas pratiquaient des rituels sanglants pour apaiser leurs dieux, y compris des sacrifices humains. Les Incas, eux, adoraient surtout Inti, le dieu Soleil, et considéraient l'empereur comme son descendant direct. Leurs sacrifices humains existaient, mais étaient plus rares et souvent réservés à des moments exceptionnels.En somme, les Mayas furent des astronomes et des scribes brillants, mais fragmentés politiquement. Les Incas, eux, bâtirent un empire solide et organisé, mais sans écriture. Deux civilisations fascinantes, qui montrent la diversité et la richesse des mondes précolombiens bien avant l'arrivée des Européens. Hébergé par Acast.

Episode 211 of The Adventure Podcast features adventurer Ollie Treviso. Ollie recently completed a 14,000km, 20-month walk along the Andes, from Tierra del Fuego to the Caribbean Sea. In this episode, Ollie opens up about how far he's come - from a rugby-playing teenager abusing steroids and working as an insurance broker, to living in a cave in Gran Canaria, working on farms, and eventually discovering the power of slow, human-paced travel. Matt and Ollie explore his first long-distance walk across the UK, complete with an over-packed rucksack, no tent experience, and a rule never to pay for accommodation, and how these early stumbles laid the foundations for his South American journey. They also talk candidly about grief and loss, why walking feels most meaningful, resilience, identity, and the uneasy balance between adventure, ego, and storytelling. This conversation is longer than normal. But its honest, fun, and full of surprising side stories. What emerges is not just the tale of an epic trek, but an honest reflection on what drives someone to keep walking into the unknown.For extra insights from the worlds of adventure, exploration and the natural world, you can find The Adventure Podcast+ community on Substack.

Los españoles descubrieron América en 1492 por error. Cristóbal Colón buscaba una ruta occidental a Asia, pero su cálculo erróneo del diámetro terrestre le llevó a un continente desconocido. En principio creyeron haberse encontrado con las islas asiáticas cercanas a Japón, pero estaban muy lejos de allí. Para rentabilizar el hallazgo buscaron especias como la pimienta, el clavo o la nuez moscada, que los portugueses traían de la India y vendían con gran beneficio en Lisboa. Pero en América no había especias. Para compensarlo decidieron colonizar las islas grandes del Caribe, pero sus cultivos traídos de Europa no arraigaban bien. Se pusieron entonces a buscar metales preciosos, que eran dinero en efectivo en la Europa de la época. Durante las primeras décadas se dedicaron a la rapiña, pero eso no podía durar eternamente. Tuvieron entonces varios golpes de suerte. El primero fue que, con una mezcla de audacia y ambición, conquistaron los dos grandes imperios que había en América y, sobre sus cenizas, crearon dos virreinatos, el de Nueva España y el de Perú, hechos a la imagen y semejanza de Castilla. El segundo golpe de suerte llegó poco después. Se encontraron con dos grandes yacimientos de plata. Uno en los Andes, en Potosí, y otro en el interior de México, en Zacatecas. La extracción era en origen muy rudimentaria hasta que en 1554 un comerciante sevillano llamado Bartolomé de Medina innovó con el método de patios, un proceso de amalgama en frío con mercurio, sal y sulfato de cobre. Esto permitía procesar mucho más mineral más rápido, lo que multiplicó la producción. El mercurio necesario lo obtenían de las minas de Almadén, en la península ibérica, y en las de Huancavelica, en Perú, lo que abarató aún más el proceso. Para que la plata pudiese cruzar el océano crearon un sistema de flotas: dos convoyes anuales desde Sevilla, que era el único puerto autorizado para comerciar con América. Una parte de la flota iba a Veracruz, en Nueva España, la otra a Portobelo, en Panamá, y se reunían en La Habana para el regreso. Cargaban productos europeos en la ida. La vuelta la hacían con colorantes como la cochinilla y el añil y metales como el oro y la plata. El sistema de flotas fue muy efectivo para evitar los asaltos de los piratas, pero el contrabando era la norma, tanto mediante navíos sueltos como dentro de las mismas flotas en las que los comerciantes sólo declaraban una parte de la plata que llevaban a bordo. Esa plata viajaba en panes o en monedas. Estas últimas se acuñaban en los virreinatos. La denominación más acuñada era el real de a 8, una moneda de gran tamaño y unos 27 gramos de peso inspirada en los táleros alemanes. El real de a 8 no era la mejor moneda del mundo, de hecho presentaba muchos defectos de acuñación y no era especialmente atractiva, pero era muy abundante y generaba confianza en todos los comerciantes del mundo, que la empleaban de forma rutinaria en sus negocios. Durante cerca de tres siglos estos reales españoles acuñados con plata americana se convirtieron en la moneda más popular del mundo. Llegaba a Europa y desde allí se distribuía por todo el planeta, casi siempre con dirección a China, que era el mercado al que afluían los mercaderes europeos a proveerse de todo tipo de bienes de lujo. La plata americana en forma de reales de 8 abrió un nuevo capítulo en el comercio internacional, proporcionó liquidez y posibilitó la primera globalización de la economía mundial. Pero sobre España cayó como la lluvia que cae sobre un tejado. Surgieron gracias a ella dos imperios: uno político y otro monetario. El segundo sobrevivió al primero hasta el punto de que en la lejana China al rey de España se le empezó a conocer como el rey de la plata.

I came into this conversation thinking that I'd be chatting about the trivialities of an expedition through South America and I left in a state of absolute disbelief and awe. Oliver Treviso is a fascinating and incredible individual who has become the first person ever to hike the length of the Andes through Argentina, Chile, Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia and Venezuela. In this first episode, we discuss how this adventure came to be...his experience sailing in a catamaran across the Atlantic from the Canary Islands to Brazil, and by all accounts the boat was hardly seaworthy. Then, a love for South America was kindled and before long, he was back on the continent and hiked for 21 months, for 8000 miles and wearing out nine pairs of shoes. The journey was not without its hazards and dangers, but he made it. We'll record a second episode with Oliver to hear more about his time in Colombia and Venezuela, but for the time being, tune in to an amazing story of human kindness and spirit.

Esta noche escucharemos historias que se cuelan en casa y en la memoria. Un testimonio íntimo sobre una presencia que imita rostros cercanos; el reporte de un militar que, en la sierra de Durango, descubre que no existe entrenamiento para eso; y, desde los Andes peruanos, un ritual a mitad de la noche para traer de vuelta lo que nunca debió irse. Si estás aquí, ya sabes: hay tiempo para arrepentirse… pero no mucho. ¿Te atreves a escuchar? —
