Topher Gardner is the founder of Black Gold Biochar, a regenerative builder, a lifelong bodyworker, and a former Division I football kicker who has actually walked the path most spiritual seekers only theorize about. He played at Michigan State under Nick Saban, spent three more years in pro leagues, and rebuilt the body football broke through Rolfing and yoga. That work took him to southern India, where he served as operations director of an ashram before the new age yoga world wore him out. He landed in Costa Rica, where for nearly two decades he built domes, taught regenerative agriculture, partook in fifty-plus ayahuasca journeys, studied true sidereal astrology with John Lamb Lash, and found the work that now anchors his life: biochar.The conversation moves the way Topher's mind moves, between cosmology and concrete, between Wilhelm Reich's writing on why we build idols just to slay them and the chemistry of why a 2,000-degree kiln in the Missouri Ozarks turns hardwood waste into the most stable carbon you can put in soil. We get into the suppressed Christ archetype hidden in Ophiuchus, why the distinction between self and other is the actual purpose of incarnation, what ten years inside the ayahuasca world taught him about variability over devotion, and why the carbon they trained us to fear is the same carbon our bodies and our land are starving for. Hard-won wisdom, earned the only way it ever gets earned.(00:00) Why Is Carbon Demonized?

Eric Richins called his sister Katie from overseas years before his death and told her Kouri Richins had tried to harm him. He consulted a divorce attorney. He rewrote his will and restructured his estate to protect his three sons. He told family members that if anything happened to him, Kouri was responsible. He saw the threat clearly. And he still went home every night.Katie testified at sentencing that Eric made the decision to stay because he was afraid of what would happen to his boys if Kouri received equal custody. He believed he was the only barrier between her and them. Father as human shield. That calculation — staying inside a marriage you know is dangerous because leaving means your children lose the only person standing between them and the danger — is the psychological center of the Kouri Richins case.The Valentine's Day 2022 incident crystallized the split Eric was living inside. He called two friends the same afternoon. One heard a funny story about an allergic reaction — they laughed about it. The other heard fear. Eric told him directly he believed Kouri was trying to poison him. Same event. Same man. Two realities. He wasn't in denial. He was fluent in both versions because toggling between them was the only way to keep functioning inside something he hadn't escaped.His children's sentencing statements reveal what the household actually looked like from the inside. Locked rooms. A brother sneaking food to a sibling. Animals dying from neglect. Fear as the only constant. What Eric was trying to protect and what was already happening under the same roof reframe the entire case.Then Kouri's forty-five-minute speech. She rolled her eyes during her children's statements. She sobbed when her own family praised her. She told her sons the verdict was an "absolute lie." She called the marriage a love that "never failed." Her closing instruction: "Never apologize for something you didn't do." A recruitment pitch aimed at the only audience still persuadable — three boys whose father died trying to shield them from the person now planting seeds designed to grow for decades.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Gold miners working in the Yukon regularly find ancient ground squirrel burrows throughout the permafrost, many containing fossilized feces. Researchers analyzing these well-preserved poop piles found they contain some of the oldest DNA ever recovered, dating from 30,000 to 700,000 years ago. Tucked inside were traces of a wide range of ancient animals, including woolly mammoths, grasshoppers, steppe bison, ancient horses, American cheetahs, as well as hundreds of plant species.PLUS:‘Super-good, ice-making microbes' may trigger snow and rain, or help freeze foodWe're a hotbed of mutations, and scientists are leveraging that for our healthGoing out on a limb.

Calling someone an “animal” means they're less than human – not worthy of respect, rights, or even of life itself. But in truth — and in biological fact — human beings ARE animals. Scientists continue to find that intelligence and what we call “consciousness” appear to saturate all of nature. Clearly it's high time to think differently about just what it means to be an animal. Can we know what it's like to be other-than-human? How can we see into the minds of animals? Visionary naturalist, author and conservationist Carl Safina says that the first step is paying attention and observing. And, he suggests, if we had humility, we'd have everything.

A lead actor named Chris was more likely to headline one of the UK's top-grossing films over the past three years than a woman over 60. Even talking animals came out ahead according to a new study from the UK's Age Without Limits campaign. Animals were four times more likely to be the central character than an older woman. More than two decades ago, actress Geena Davis decided to challenge Hollywood's blind spots by founding the Geena Davis Institute, which tracks who gets seen and who gets left out and how women of all ages are portrayed. Madeline Di Nonno is the Institute's President and CEO where they use data to help the entertainment industry see what's missing on the screen.

When dogs aren't socialized properly to kids and odd things like scooters and wheelchairs, bad things happen, so do your due diligence to teach your dogs what is ok, and kids are ok! Remarkable Serval cat facts. Deb talks about different mama dogs she's experienced over the years and how they almost always want no other dogs around their newborns, but this mama doodle dog welcomes the poodle papa into the whelping pen like a wolf throwback.

While many dinosaurs were wiped out when a colossal asteroid struck Earth 66m years ago, one group survived: birds. Prof Steve Brusatte, a palaeontologist at the University of Edinburgh, has written a new book, The Story of Birds, tracing the evolution of our feathered friends from their dinosaur origins. He joins science correspondent Nicola Davis to discuss how scales first became feathers, how winged dinosaurs survived the impact of the asteroid and why their extreme adaptability offers hope that birds might also make it through the current environmental crisis.

The sea is filled with these living things, with each one producing more of its own kind. He also made every bird that flies, and each bird produced more of its own kind. God saw that this was good.

Our cities are anything but concrete jungles. Listen in as Therese Markow and Dr. Dan Werb reveal the hidden world of synanthropes - the wild animals that not only live alongside us, but thrive because of us. In this episode, Therese Markow and Dr. Dan Werb discuss Dan's new book "Our Wild Familiars", which explores how animals (and plants) adapt to urban environments. They dive into the history and impact of synanthropes, such as raccoons, coyotes, and rats. He also highlights the adaptability of these animals and why they have expanded into cities. Dr. Werb emphasizes the importance of viewing cities as living, thriving ecosystems and the need for human ecosystem-based solutions for the good of humans and animals alike in these ecosystems.   Key Takeaways: Humanity has a much higher risk of experiencing viral spillover events now than before, because we are increasingly intersecting with wild animals that we have never seen before in urban spaces that carry pathogens that we've never been exposed to before. As humans, we have a relationship with synanthropes that is so deep and long-standing that it has become central to our spiritual selves as well.  With more small animals being drawn into cities, that is going to continue to draw in more predators, such as coyotes, which have expanded their home range by about 50 kilometers per year for the last 150-200 years. It may be impossible to eliminate any synanthrope that has found an ecosystem within a city. Even if you remove one creature from an area, the niche they had developed will still be there ready for the next synanthrope to move in. Solutions that make life better for humans can actually be profoundly beneficial for animals as well, or at least for the functioning of our urban ecosystems.  "Cities are more biodiverse than the areas that surround them, and that's because humans, like any other organism, want to live in places that are as fertile and rich as possible." —  Dr. Dan Werb Connect with Dr. Dan Werb: Professional Bio: https://ihpme.utoronto.ca/faculty-profile/dan-werb/,  https://profiles.ucsd.edu/daniel.werb  Website: https://danwerb.substack.com/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/danwerb/  Books:  PREORDER: Our Wild Familiars - https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/769255/our-wild-familiars-by-dan-werb/  City of Omens - https://www.amazon.com/City-Omens-Search-Missing-Borderlands-ebook/dp/B07QLN4K3T  The Invisible Siege - https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/670859/the-invisible-siege-by-dan-werb/  Connect with Therese: Website:  www.criticallyspeaking.net Bluesky: @CriticallySpeaking.bsky.social Instagram: @criticallyspeakingpodcast Email: theresemarkow@criticallyspeaking.net Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

In this episode of the Time for Teachership Podcast, host Lindsay Lyons welcomes picture book author and illustrator Molly Arbuthnott for a rich conversation about why picture books are not the "bottom rung" of reading—but the top. This episode is part of a special mini-series for educators and families focused on how to support children's reading lives. Molly shares how picture books create space for deep thinking, emotional conversations, imagination, and student voice—without the pressure of "right answers." If you read with children at home or in the classroom, this episode will completely reframe how you think about picture books.   Big Ideas from the Conversation Children should not have books "dumbed down" for them Picture books can gently explore hard topics like death, accidents, grief, and resilience There are no wrong answers when discussing a picture book Art and story create safe practice for sharing different interpretations Kids should be "gatekeepers" in choosing what they read Animals as characters create freedom for interpretation beyond identity or politics Picture books are powerful entry points into discussions about climate change, community, resilience, and belonging Reading should stay joyful and imaginative—for adults and children   Get Your Episode Freebie & More Resources On My Website: https://www.lindsaybethlyons.com/blog/261   Connect with guest Molly Arbuthnott  Website: https://www.marbuthnottbooks.com

Send us Fan MailThis week on Mondays Down Under, Lee Salisbury, Shane Melrose, and Nick discuss one of the more unusual sides of the pool industry: pools built for animals. What starts as a conversation about winter swimming temperatures quickly turns into a fascinating look at dog splash parks, crocodile enclosures, equestrian facilities, koi ponds, and the unique water quality challenges that come with maintaining aquatic environments that weren't designed for humans. Nick shares his experience servicing a commercial dog splash pad attached to a boarding kennel and dog daycare facility. Complete with water features, filtration systems, UV sanitation, ORP control, and large hair-catching pre-filters, the installation demonstrates just how much engineering can go into keeping canine swimmers safe while maintaining water quality. The hosts discuss the realities of servicing these facilities, from dealing with dog hair and elevated sanitizer demand to understanding what pathogens and contaminants may be introduced by animal bathers. The conversation expands into public aquatic facilities that host special dog-swimming events after the regular swimming season ends. Lee describes a commercial pool that transforms into a dog-friendly attraction before winter closure, complete with dog treats, pup cups, and scheduled swimming sessions. The hosts explore why these events have become popular while also examining the additional maintenance and sanitation concerns that come with allowing animals into traditionally human-focused aquatic environments. Along the way, the team shares stories from the field, including crocodile enclosure maintenance, pools converted into fish ponds, koi installations, dogs trapped under pool covers, kangaroos damaging vinyl liners, and other unexpected encounters that remind listeners that pool service often extends far beyond residential backyards. The discussion also dives into commercial pool design and operations, including Australia's practice of color-coding commercial plumbing systems to identify filtered water, unfiltered water, waste lines, and chemical treatment circuits. The hosts explain how these visual systems help technicians navigate complex plant rooms and improve troubleshooting efficiency. Finally, the group reviews sanitation considerations for splash pads and interactive water features, including secondary sanitation requirements, UV systems, ozone treatment, pathogen control, chlorine contact times, and the challenges of maintaining safe water quality in facilities with high bather loads and small water volumes. The episode concludes with practical advice for service professionals managing pools where pets are frequent swimmers and why proper filtration, sanitation, and maintenance become even more important when four-legged bathers are involved. In This Episode Commercial dog splash pads and daycare aquatic facilities  Filtration and sanitation challenges created by animal bathers  Public pools that host dog swimming events  Crocodile enclosures, equestrian pools, and koi pond conversions  Commercial plant room plumbing color-coding systems  UV, ozone, ORP, and splash pad sanitation requirements  Microbiological concerns associated with animal swimming  Practical maintenance recommendations for pools used by pets  Real-world field stories from Australia and New Zealand  Why dog hair may be one of a technician's biggest challenges Connect With Talking PoolsListen to new episodes every week across the Talking Pools Podcast Network featuring industry professionals from around the world discussing pool service, water chemistry, commercial aquatics, equipment, operations, and the challenges technicians face every day.Available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, and everywhere podcasts are found.

What do you get when a stray dog becomes a hero, a police department gains its most compassionate officer, and an entire nation falls in love on live television? You get Sgt. Bo and one of the most heart-warming episodes of Working Like Dogs we've ever recorded. Host Marcie Davis sat down with Faye Okert, the devoted handler behind this four-legged phenomenon, and Robin Ganzert, President and CEO of American Humane Society to share the breathtaking journey of a dog who went from wandering the streets of Nashville to comforting children in the aftermath of tragedy — and ultimately winning the 2025 American Humane Hero Dog Award. Robin pulls back the curtain on the Hero Dog Awards and shares the most urgent issues American Humane is fighting for right now on behalf of animals everywhere. And Sgt. Bo's story is living proof that the dogs who need saving the most are often the ones who end up saving us. Faye and Robin remind us why dogs aren't just our best friends — they're our healers, our heroes, and sometimes, our greatest teachers.

150 years ago, Charles Darwin noticed that birds and humans were both drawn to bright plumage and elaborate display. He called this interspecies esthetic appreciation a “shared taste for the beautiful.” Now, in a recent study, an interdisciplinary team of scientists built an online game exploring the mating calls of 16 different species and discovered, to their surprise, that humans and animals agree on which sounds are more attractive.PLUS:How the brain can learn to truly multitaskFrom the archives: The Russian space mirror that flashed across Canadian skiesThe Matrix is real: birds, dragonflies and dogs see the world in slow motionCould the next giant particle collider unlock the mysteries of the universe?

While creepy crawlies aren't everyone's cup of tea, rodents are much less appealing and on Australia's remote Lord Howe Island, a pest eradication programme has got rid of the rats and mice. In their place, insects and lizards are flourishing - and it's all based on role-modelling from New Zealand. Maxim Adams is lead researcher at the University of Sydney. He speaks to Susie about how they did it.
