Marine veteran Akshay Nanavati joins Marcus Aurelius Anderson to discuss how he turned PTSD, addiction, and a suicide attempt into a life defined by extreme self-mastery. He survived 17 days in total darkness and dragged a 420-pound sled 500 miles solo across Antarctica, losing fingers to frostbite along the way. They discuss method acting as a tool for identity construction, the value of choosing your suffering on purpose, the "apex moment" that defines who you become, and why stillness may be the most important discipline of all. Episode Highlights: 1:30 — Akshay describes surviving 100 days alone in polar regions and dragging a 420-pound sled 500 miles solo across Antarctica, calling it "the boldest Antarctic expedition of modern time." 15:08 — Every part of our identity is a construct rather than an inherent truth, which means we get to create ourselves instead of simply finding ourselves. 35:26 — Every worthy mission needs two whys: a selfish curiosity that drives you inward, and a duty to bring what you learn back to others. 40:39 — In his darkest moment dragging a stuck sled through Antarctic snow, a single quote turned his despair into what he calls his "apex moment," the instant of transcendence that defines who you become. Akshay Nanavati is a Marine combat veteran who overcame PTSD, addiction, and a near-suicide to become one of the most extreme human-performance explorers alive today. He has run multiple ultra-marathons, spent 17 days in complete darkness, survived 100 days alone in polar regions, and completed a 500-mile, 60-day solo trek across Antarctica dragging a 420-pound sled. He combines lived experience with neuroscience, psychology, and spirituality in his book Fearvana, which was endorsed and forwarded by the Dalai Lama. He is an international keynote speaker and mental performance coach who helps leaders and teams break through limits and perform at their peak. His next book, The Work Is the Win, releases in spring 2026.

Kerri dives into the tragic 2018 killing of University of Utah student-athlete Lauren McCluskey, who was murdered by a man she had briefly dated after he lied about his identity and criminal past. The episode examines the warning signs Lauren reported to campus police in the days before her death and the systemic failures that followed, which ultimately led to major reforms in campus safety policy. Donna explores the eerie phenomenon known as "the Third Man," where people in extreme situations—mountaineers, shipwreck survivors, and disaster victims—report sensing an unseen presence guiding or comforting them. From Shackleton's Antarctic expedition to 9/11 survivors, she unpacks the science and speculation behind this strange, recurring experience of feeling accompanied when utterly alone. If you have any local true crime, local urban legend/lore, ghost stories.. we want them all!! We want to hear from YOU. Especially if you have any funny Ambien stories!

The Himalayas are one of the world's greatest biodiversity treasures, yet they are also among the most vulnerable mountain systems on Earth. Stretching across multiple countries and supporting millions of people, this extraordinary landscape is home to remarkable wildlife, diverse ecosystems, unique cultures, and some of Asia's most important freshwater sources. But rapid climate change, ecosystem degradation, habitat fragmentation, unsustainable development, and increasing human pressures are transforming the region at an unprecedented pace.In this episode of the Think Wildlife Podcast, we are joined by Dr. Nakul Chettri, Senior Fellow and Associate Director of ATREE's Himalayan Initiative, to explore the future of Himalayan biodiversity conservation and why protecting these mountains is essential not only for wildlife, but also for people across South Asia.Growing up in the shadow of Kanchenjunga, Dr. Chettri shares how his childhood experiences inspired a lifelong journey into conservation science. He explains why the Eastern Himalayas are globally recognised as a biodiversity hotspot, where steep elevation gradients, tropical forests, alpine meadows, glaciers, and unique microclimates create exceptional levels of biodiversity and endemism. Alongside this ecological richness lies an equally remarkable cultural landscape shaped by indigenous communities whose knowledge and stewardship have protected these ecosystems for generations.The conversation explores how ATREE's Himalayan Initiative works at the intersection of science, policy, and local communities to address the complex relationship between conservation and sustainable development. Dr. Chettri highlights why community-based conservation remains one of the most effective approaches for protecting biodiversity while supporting livelihoods, and why indigenous knowledge is essential for long-term resilience.Climate change is one of the central themes of this discussion. Often called The Third Pole, the Himalayas contain the largest concentration of ice outside the Arctic and Antarctic. As glaciers retreat, rainfall patterns shift, and extreme weather events become more frequent, the consequences extend far beyond mountain communities, affecting water security, agriculture, biodiversity, and disaster risk throughout Asia. Dr. Chettri discusses these emerging challenges and explains why climate adaptation and ecosystem restoration must become central priorities for governments and conservation organisations alike.We also explore the importance of agroforestry, sustainable agriculture, and restoring degraded ecosystems to strengthen biodiversity while improving rural livelihoods. Dr. Chettri explains why restoring forests alone is not enough and how integrated landscape approaches can simultaneously support food security, climate resilience, and wildlife conservation.Another fascinating part of the discussion focuses on the overlooked importance of rangelands and pastoral communities. These high-altitude ecosystems support unique wildlife, store significant amounts of carbon, and provide livelihoods for indigenous pastoralists, yet they remain poorly understood and increasingly threatened by changing land use and climate pressures.Human-wildlife conflict is another growing concern throughout the Eastern Himalayas. Dr. Chettri discusses practical approaches to reducing conflicts between people and wildlife—including elephants—and explains why coexistence requires both scientific solutions and meaningful community participation.Since wildlife and ecosystems do not recognise political boundaries, we also examine why transboundary conservation is essential across the Himalayan region. Countries must work together to conserve shared landscapes, protect ecological connectivity, and build resilience against climate change. Dr. Chettri also reflects on his contributions to the IPBES Global Assessment, sharing insights into how global biodiversity science can influence national conservation policy and international decision-making.Whether you're interested in wildlife, ecology, climate science, conservation policy, ecosystem restoration, or sustainable development, this conversation offers a comprehensive look at one of Earth's most important mountain ecosystems and the people working to protect it.If you enjoyed this episode, please like, subscribe, and share to support independent conservation conversations.

The space around our solar system is cloudy. Astronomers have mapped 15 individual clouds within a few hundred light-years. The clouds are moving in different directions, and they have different mixtures of ingredients. Some of those ingredients were forged by exploding stars. Over the past few years, scientists have used one of those ingredients to trace the solar system’s path through the Local Interstellar Cloud. It’s about 30 light-years across, and we’re close to its edge – perhaps in the transition zone with the next cloud. The scientists have looked at a radioactive form of iron that’s produced when a massive star explodes as a supernova. The explosion scatters the atoms, creating clouds of debris – including iron-rich dust grains. As Earth flies through a cloud, it sweeps up some of the dust, which falls to the surface. The scientists have found the iron in sediments on the bottom of the ocean, and in fresh snow in Antarctica. And recently, they found it in layers of ice deposited 40,000 to 80,000 years ago, also in the Antarctic. Those samples fell to Earth before the others did. And they have lower amounts of the radioactive iron. That could mean that Earth was just entering the Local Cloud during that period. The amount of iron went up as we passed deeper into the cloud. Now, the amount is going down again – perhaps heralding the solar system’s exit from the Local Cloud. Script by Damond Benningfield

THE THING (1982) shot its Antarctic scenes on the refrigerated soundstages of Universal Studios, where special effects designer Rob Bottin spent months building creature work nobody in Hollywood had attempted before. This episode breaks down the freezing interior shoots, Dean Cundey's stark visual palette, and the physical toll of pulling off the film's groundbreaking prosthetic sequences.

Original Air Date: March 30th, 2026 In this fresh clip, the man who's been wrong for three decades is at it again, solemnly declaring that some climate damage is already “not reversible” while warning it's “probably inevitable that we're going to see Greenland go and the west Antarctic ice sheet go.” He tells us the world's shallow coral reef systems are “very much in danger,” so if you want to see them, you'd better “get scuba certified immediately” — right before casually throwing in that New Orleans might need saving too. Gore admits the most dangerous impacts are “still avoidable and preventable” if we just “stop using the sky as an open sewer for this civilization-destroying pollution”… because apparently the same scientists whose 20-year-old doomsday predictions he now calls “dead right” have suddenly nailed it this time. No new data, no evidence, just the same recycled panic, the same furrowed brow, and the same urgent plea to trust him — again. Same Gore, same script, different decade. The ice sheets, the reefs, and the sky are all doomed… unless you buy what he's selling. Classic.

Royal Caribbean is testing digital scratch-off lottery tickets through its onboard app aboard Utopia of the Seas, with tickets priced from $2 to $20 and a top jackpot of $100,000; prizes under $2,000 post automatically to guest accounts, while larger wins require a Casino Royale visit and tax paperwork. The test follows Carnival Millions, launched in February 2026 with daily drawings offering up to $1 million, and an earlier BetMGM trial with Carnival that ended over satellite-internet lag and limited passenger interest. At Port Canaveral, construction has begun on a $95 million expansion of Cruise Terminal 10, a 145,000-square-foot facility roughly 30 percent larger than the existing building and able to handle ships carrying up to 6,700 passengers, with completion set for November 2027. The port recorded 8.6 million passenger movements and 1,038 ship calls in fiscal 2025. And Heritage Expeditions has completed drydock on Heritage Discoverer in Bremerhaven, Germany, ahead of the ship's first Antarctic passenger cruise, a preview voyage from Ushuaia running November 19 to December 9, 2026.

You may have heard about the recent and extraordinary midwinter rescue mission that took place in Antarctica.  Flying into temperatures of -43°C and complete darkness, the Australian aviation crew behind the rescue landed at McMurdo Station to carry out an urgent medical evacuation of a US expedition member from the station.  And there's a lovely Clare connection too, through Captain Louise Robertson, who was part of the crew behind the rescue mission.  Louise is connected to the Banner County through her grandparents, Paddy Duggan from Ballina/Killaloe and Bridget Quinn from Ruane/Tubber, who both hailed from County Clare.  Alan Morrissey was delighted to be joined by Captain Louise Robertson to learn more.

photo by derek oven on unsplash A live, off-air, half-hour recording of the BBC World Service special Antarctic Midwinter Broadcast on 21 June 2026 beginning at 21:30 UTC.The broadcast, hosted by Cerys Matthews, featured messages and music for the members of the staff of the British Antarctic Survey (BAS) overwintering in Antarctica at the Rothera (Antarctic Peninsula), King Edward Point, and Bird Island (South Georgia) research stations. In addition to personal messages from family and friends, there were interviews with Professor Dame Jane Francis, Director of BAS; and Lousiane Ferlier, an archivist at the Royal Society in London who is digitizing the photographs of the first midwinter celebration during Robert Scott's discovery expedition of 1901-04. As sometimes happens, the first few words of the introduction were not transmitted: "This is the BBC World Service calling Antarctica ...".The recording is of the transmission on 12070 kHz from the BBC's Woofferton, England, transmitting station. The sender had a registered power of 300 kW with antenna beam 182 degrees. The transmission was received on a Belka-DX receiver with a Sangean ANT-60 7-metre wire antenna outdoors in Hanwell (just outside Fredericton), New Brunswick, Canada, in pseudo-synchronous (AM2) mode with 50 Hz - 2.7 kHz bandwidth. Reception was quite good with excellent signal strength but with occasional lightning burst noise and digital utility station interference. The additional parallel frequencies of 9510 kHz from Woofferton and 9460 kHz from Ascension were heard but not as well as 12070 kHz. A studio quality, slightly longer, podcast version is available on the BBC World Service website. BBC World Service Annual Antarctic Midwinter Broadcast: June 21, 2026 Richard Langley Download

See the full webinar list → Robert Holmes, founder of Spectrum Weather and Specialty Insurance, joins Phil to demystify weather insurance for the snow and ice industry. From explaining what an independent broker actually is, to walking through real-life examples of how contractors use lack-of-snow policies to protect equipment rentals, collateralize operating loans, and build client-loyalty credits, Robert shows why weather insurance isn't just for the biggest operations. He also shares the story of his 18-year path from research meteorologist and Antarctic weather-station builder to founder of a family-run brokerage that helps contractors turn weather risk into a Lego box of solutions. Key Learnings Know the Difference Between Agent and Broker - An agent works for the insurance carrier, but an independent broker's fiduciary responsibility is to you, which means access to the best coverage across carriers instead of whatever one company sells. Weather Insurance Triggers on Snowfall, Not Expenses - Claims are paid based on measured snowfall against a defined threshold, so you don't have to prove salt costs went up or your labor spend spiked to collect. Airport Measurements Keep Things Clean - Coverage typically uses a central, historically tracked location like a major airport because it's a disinterested third party with reliable data underwriters can price against. Insurance Offsets Big Contract Risk - Landing a large contract usually means renting or buying expensive equipment that has to sit ready, and weather insurance can protect that outlay if the snow doesn't come. Weather Policies Can Collateralize Bank Loans - Snow-only contractors going into winter cash-poor can use a lack-of-snow policy to name their bank as an additional loss payee, giving lenders peace of mind on operating capital loans. Whoever Owns the Risk Buys the Policy - Property managers, HOAs, landlords, and even municipalities buy weather insurance too, so if the risk lives with your client, they might be the buyer instead of you. Buy Insurance Earlier in the Season - As winter approaches, carrier capacity in high-demand markets like Chicago fills up, so a policy that costs $X in August could cost 20% more if you wait until Octob...

Who decided that the sea — cold, dangerous and full of smugglers — was somewhere you went for fun?What kind of doctor prescribes plunging into the Channel naked in the dead of winter, and then drinking it?And how did the towns Britain built to enjoy itself end up among the most deprived places in the country?The holiday — the whole idea that ordinary people are owed one — starts with a Brighton doctor, a shed on wheels and an Act of Parliament, and Peter Frankopan and Afua Hirsch follow it from there to the boarded-up promenades of the present.Dr Richard Russell published a book in the 1750s arguing that seawater cured everything from scrofula to melancholy, and that you ought to drink it by the pint, with milk or port to take the edge off.

PBYs, Sikorsky 51s, and Antarctica.  The episode I'd fabricate from whole cloth if the events didn't actually happen.   Peter Mott leads the British effort to map the Antarctic Peninsula before any pesky Patagonians steal the cartographic glory constituting the last low hanging Antarctic fruit.  The Falkland Islands Dependency Aerial Survey Expedition drew together broad talents and drew the ire of less glamorously tasked FIDS. Recorded on location in Gippsland and atop Bass Strait. A visit from a kitty cat and a song by Ellis Piper to round out my happiness with episode 167.  

What can glaciers teach us about our changing planet, and why should people thousands of miles away from the world's great ice fields care?In this episode of The Intelligence Report Podcast, Dylan Welch sits down with glacier researcher, journalist, and explorer Grace Cordsen to discuss her work across the Arctic and Antarctic and what she has witnessed firsthand in some of the planet's most remote environments.Grace shares her journey from joining an Arctic expedition as a young researcher to working aboard expedition vessels across both polar regions. She discusses researching the visual history of the Arctic, witnessing glaciers retreat over time, the importance of understanding the communities and cultures connected to these environments, and how exploration can transform the way we think about conservation.One of the most powerful lessons from Grace's work is also one of the simplest: seeing environmental change can change the way we understand it. She describes returning to the same glaciers and comparing them with historical records from decades earlier revealing landscapes that have changed dramatically within a relatively short period of time. The conversation also explores the role of scientists, journalists, educators, travelers, and everyday people in protecting glaciers and the broader cryosphere. As Grace explains, one of the first things anyone can do is learn about these environments, understand how they are changing, and find meaningful ways to support their protection. Topics include: Arctic and Antarctic exploration, glacier retreat, climate communication, polar research, conservation, Indigenous and local communities, sustainable expedition travel, and how storytelling can help people understand, and protect, the world's frozen environments.Support the show

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for August 5, 2026 is: colloquial • kuh-LOH-kwee-ul • adjective Colloquial is used with words like term and word and expression to describe language that is used in familiar and informal conversation. // The author can switch from formal academic language to a charmingly colloquial style, depending on the audience and subject of her writing. See the entry > Examples: "The American woodcock is a native North American bird species found in Wisconsin and much of the eastern United States and Canada. Known by a host of colloquial names, including timberdoodle, ... bogsucker and mudsnipe, the species is about the size of the American robin ..." — Paul A. Smith, The Green Bay (Wisconsin) Press-Gazette , 1 May 2026 Did you know? The noun colloquy has since the 15th century referred to a conversation or dialogue, and when the adjective colloquial was formed in the mid-18th century it had a similar focus. (Both words trace back to the Latin verb colloquī, meaning "to converse.") Over time, however, colloquial developed a more specific meaning related to language that is most suited to informal conversation, and it ultimately garnered a secondary use for language that is so informal as to be inappropriate for a given situation. For instance, when writing an academic paper about Antarctic explorer Ernest Shackleton, it would not serve to say that the crew of the Endurance was "in quite a pickle" when they became trapped in ice off the Caird coast. Although pickle does indeed mean "a difficult situation" in this context, its flavor—ahem—may be considered too colloquial, that is, "unacceptably informal," for academic use.

Hello and welcome to episode 98 of TheDX Mentor – a discussion with Steve, W0ZB, Violletta, KN2P, and Joe, W8GEX, about the upcoming VP0SG DXpedition to South Georgia. December 2025 - Amateur Radio DXpeditions (ARD) (⁠https://www.ardxpeditions.com/⁠ ) is pleased to announce a major milestone in the preparation of the VP0SG South Georgia 2027 DXpedition. We have successfully signed the vessel contract and first deposit is being paid, officially securing our expedition vessel: the MV MEREDIAN, operated by 60° South Expeditions.  The MV MEREDIAN is a robust, ice-strengthened expedition vessel capable of safely supporting land-based operations in the challenging sub-Antarctic environment. The experience of the 60° South team, combined with their long track record in the region, makes them an ideal partner for this ambitious project. Securing the vessel represents a crucial step that moves VP0SG from planning to reality. We are pleased to report positive progress in our ongoing dialogue with the Government of South Georgia & the South Sandwich Islands (GSGSSI). Our early planning has been well received, and the framework of our proposed operation is considered consistent with current guidance. While the formal permit process will open in 2026, GSGSSI has expressed a willingness to continue working with us as we refine our plans throughout the coming months. This represents a highly encouraging step toward obtaining the final landing permit required for onshore operations in 2027. If you have a comment or a question, please drop me a note at thedxmentor@gmail.comBelow are the links that we alluded to: https://www.ardxpeditions.com/Website: www.aj8b.comYoutube & Podcast TheDXMentorReal Time DX Info (DailyDX https://www.dailydx.com/Southwest Ohio DX Assoc. https://www.swodxa.orgDaily DX https://www.dailydx.com/DX Engineering https://www.dxengineering.com/Icom https://www.icomamerica.com/IC-7760 Product Page: https://www.icomamerica.com/lineup/products/IC-7760IC-PW2 Product Page: https://www.icomamerica.com/lineup/products/IC-PW2IC-7300 MK2 Product Page: https://www.icomamerica.com/lineup/products/IC-7300MK2/IC-9700 Product Page: https://www.icomamerica.com/lineup/products/IC-9700/IC-905 Product Page: https://www.icomamerica.com/lineup/products/IC-905/IC-R8600 Product Page: https://www.icomamerica.com/lineup/products/IC-R8600/IC-52A Plus Product Page: https://www.icomamerica.com/lineup/products/ID-52APLUS/

På våningarna i Göteborgs universitetsbibliotek ligger Otto Nordenskiölds personarkiv, fyllt av kartonger märkta Sydpolen, Grönland och Peru. Bland godbitarna finns loggboken från ångbarken Antarctic, med anteckningar som följde med när fartyget övergavs och senare krossades i Weddelhavets is 1903. Här finns också originalfakturan på den forskarstuga som fraktades i byggdelar och restes på Snow Hill, tänkt som bas för mätningar medan fartyget arbetade vidare i de okarterade haven.Dokumenten visar hur expeditionen 1901–1903 drogs in i oväntade isförhållanden, hur grupper hamnade på skilda platser och hur en vinter i provisoriska hyddor kom att prägla både människor och forskning. Telegram och brev speglar väntan hemma, tills argentinska örlogsfartyget Uruguay till sist nådde fram. I samlingarna finns även korrespondens med polarupptäckare som Roald Amundsen, Robert Falcon Scott och Ernest Shackleton, samt manus till ett tal i Göteborg 1908.Föreståndaren Anders Larsson pekar också på material om Nordenskiölds liv i Göteborg, från Geografiska föreningen till arbetet med den blivande Handelshögskolan och fredsengagemanget under första världskriget.

The polar regions are still some of the most inaccessible and least touched by humans, but they are deeply linked to the rest of Earth. We will cover the history of exploring them, the challenges of measuring this environment, and the current state of knowledge about the ice at both poles.  We will also cover the likely future for the polar regions – the incentives driving different actions, what science suggests about the consequences, and coming events to look out for.This lecture was recorded by Helen Czerski on the 21st of May 2026 at Barnard's Inn Hall, LondonHelen Czerski is a physicist and oceanographer with a passion for science, sport, books, creativity, hot chocolate and investigating the interesting things in life. She is a Professor at the Department of Mechanical Engineering at University College London and her research focus is the physics of breaking waves and bubbles at the ocean surface.

A lot of bird nerds and nature lovers have been keeping an eye on the bird flu arrival in our country. What can we do, what can't we do and what should we do to keep them as healthy and as safe as we can? Here are some things we can consider, published by Predator Free NZ staff: Image credit: John Bruin We are aware that some migratory birds have always been seen as carriers of that flu - it's quite logical that the skua was first found. It probably indicates that many more of these Antarctic birds are full of flu, especially when they get together in places where we, humans, rarely get to. MPI 0800 80 99 66 to report sick birds Image credit: Alex H Weller Using bird feeders? I am not too convinced that is a good idea. Big flocks of all sorts of birds could cause contaminations, maybe not bird flu, but I have seen a lot of silvereyes with Pox on their feet and faces. Yes, I know that Pox is a different issue with birds, but it simply pays to be careful with large numbers of birds hanging around bird feeders. While there is currently no official recommendation to take down bird feeders, they need frequent cleaning to help protect birds. The disease can spread through saliva on nozzle feeders, so clean them daily by scrubbing with hot water and dishwashing liquid (wear gloves and a mask!).  Open dishes and containers accumulate poop and are high risk. Predator Free recommend stopping their use immediately, which makes total sense. If you are trapping pests with eggs and raw poultry as lures… A big bucket of mayonnaise and a small squeezable container. Raw eggs and bird meat could contribute to the spread of disease. While the risk is very low for now and there is no official recommendation to stop using these lures consider phasing them out for now, especially if you use raw egg as a lure in and around your trap. As an egg alternative, we recommend egg-based mayonnaise, which is pasteurised and therefore doesn't pose the same risks as raw eggs. Image Credit: Predator Free Tamahere Keep cats safe and happy at home Cats seem to be very susceptible to severe illness from Avian Influenza H5N1 and could contract it from exposure to wild birds. Keeping cats safe and happy at home minimises the risk of being exposed to the disease, and it's best for our wildlife too. Oh, and while we are at it, keep your dog on a lead too! Makes sense, don't you think? Image credit: Fiona Taylor MPI: 0800 80 99 66 to report sick birds See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

For decades, cabins around Maine's North Pond were burgled by someone who took food, books, and propane — and fixed the doors on his way out. Locals called him the North Pond Hermit, and plenty of them doubted he existed at all. Then, one April night in 2013, a silent alarm at a summer camp brought a game warden face to face with a man carrying stolen groceries and a secret almost too big to believe. What he told police that night launched one of the strangest criminal cases in Maine's history — and left an entire state arguing over what, exactly, he was guilty of. Julie and Kaycee unravel how he pulled it off, what it cost the people around that pond, and the one question the courts never fully answered. 00:44 Show Intro And Setup 01:06 Caught In The Kitchen 03:32 North Pond Burglar Legend 07:34 Pine Tree Camp Sting 10:14 Who Is Christopher Knight 12:43 Hidden Camp And Winter Routine 16:11 Survival By Burglary 20:00 Close Calls And Capture 21:44 Jail Fame And Finkel Interviews 23:57 Court Program And Sentencing 26:58 Stillness And Final Thoughts 30:36 Outro And Takeaway Listen AD FREE: Support our podcast at patreaon: http://patreon.com/TheCruxTrueSurvivalPodcast Email us! thecruxsurvival@gmail.com Instagram https://www.instagram.com/thecruxpodcast/ Get schooled by Julie in outdoor wilderness medicine! https://www.headwatersfieldmedicine.com/ REFERENCES: "Christopher Thomas Knight," Wikipedia (accessed July 2026) — biographical overview, camp details, 2012 cabin encounter, Bellavance discovery.

Brrr! It's chilly at the South Pole! The boys are joined by comedian & videogame sage Ellie Gibson (Scummy Mummies, Go 8-bit), who takes us on a guided tour of Antarctica in all its creepy splendour. And then Alasdair takes us on a quick tour of the Arctic, for a very good reason that is absolutely not a clerical error. With penguin hi-jinks, Lord Franklin's passage and Ernest Shackleton's indispensable banjo player, this ep is so cool it's sub-zero. Plus, it really felt like there was a fourth presenter, silently following us across the Antarctic* tundra... *Or was it the Arctic?

Hey, mystery enthusiasts, get ready for the scoop on Blood Falls! Scientists have cracked the case behind this Antarctic crimson waterfall. Turns out, it's not blood but rather iron-rich salty water interacting with oxygen that gives it that eerie hue. The source? A subglacial lake beneath the Taylor Glacier, where conditions are harsh but fascinating. The discovery sheds light on the unique microbial life thriving in extreme environments and adds another intriguing chapter to Earth's scientific mysteries.

Human Hybrids or Interdimensional Creatures: Cryptids Compilation Vol. 5 Cryptids exist in the space between known and unknown—creatures reported for generations but never officially acknowledged. From Mothman's glowing red eyes to ancient predators beneath Antarctic ice, from Australia's deadly Yowie to interdimensional beings along New Jersey rivers, witnesses describe encounters that defy explanation. Underground electrical anomalies connect these sightings across continents. Cave networks form impossible geometric patterns. Physical evidence vanishes into government storage. Some reports trace back thousands of years through indigenous cultures. Modern technology captures footage mainstream science won't examine. These aren't isolated stories—they're pieces of something larger. Something watching. Something waiting. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Midsummer in the Northern hemisphere marks the dead of winter in Antarctica, usually a time when temperatures plunge and the surrounding ocean ices over, nearly doubling the continent's size. But this June, scientists found Antarctica's west coast was missing a chunk of sea ice the size of France. How unusually warm ocean water is affecting sea ice as well as massive Antarctic glaciers. Also, recent findings that peatlands are expanding northward as the Arctic warms might sound like good news, since peat has powerful carbon storage capabilities. But it takes millennia for peat to sequester large amounts of carbon, while we are burning fossil fuels far more quickly than the Earth can absorb. And much of the world's staple crops of corn, wheat, rice and soy are grown in huge monocultures that disrupt ecosystems and require massive amounts of fertilizer, pesticides, fossil fuels and water. The author of ‘Feed Us with Trees: Nuts and the Future of Food' offers a more sustainable vision of food production. She shares how nut trees can offer alternative sources of starch, protein and healthy fats that integrate well into local ecosystems and can help feed a growing population. -- Don't miss the next virtual Living on Earth Book Club event on Tuesday, July 14 at 5 pm PDT / 8 pm EDT! We'll talk with Yurok activist and attorney Amy Bowers Cordalis about how multiple generations of her family have advocated for the protection of Northern California's Klamath River, a crucial habitat for salmon and the lifeblood of the Yurok tribe.

In this Tuesday brief of The Wright Report, Bryan unpacks the latest on the US-Iran Peace Memo, which still hasn't been released to the public, and what VP JD Vance's televised comments reveal about what may or may not be in it. With the Strait of Hormuz still not fully open, nearly 500 ships stuck in the Persian Gulf, and Iran's lead negotiator already offering a very different version of the deal than the White House, the stakes couldn't be higher. Bryan walks through why the text is being withheld until after Friday's signing in Switzerland, what that says about the political strategy behind the deal, and why Netanyahu is making clear that Israel considers itself bound by none of it. Plus, California Governor Gavin Newsom is under DOJ investigation, surveillance pricing is costing you up to 30% more on everyday purchases based on your digital footprint, SpaceX wants to put AI data centers into low Earth orbit while a Peter Thiel-backed startup wants to drop them into Antarctic waters, and new research shows a ketogenic diet may protect against Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and other neurodegenerative diseases.

What is OCD really like beyond the stereotypes? In part two of our three part series on deepening the understanding OCD, Marine biologist and author Ally Kristan shares her lifelong experience living with OCD, challenging common misconceptions that reduce the disorder to cleanliness or organization. Ally discusses the intrusive thoughts, compulsions, shame, and relentless search for certainty that characterize OCD, as well as the relief of finally receiving a diagnosis and effective support. Together, Ally and Dr. Ann Kelley explore themes of control, uncertainty, mindfulness, relationships, self-compassion, and how healing can come from understanding—not fighting—the parts of ourselves that struggle. The episode offers an honest, hopeful look at living with OCD and finding ways to transform fear into meaning and connection. “We’re not out of touch with reality.
