Gina Johansen is a Swedish-born endurance athlete, adventurer, and a track work rider based in Sydney and Norway. She is currently preparing for a world record attempt to become the fastest woman to ski solo and unsupported to the South Pole in 2026.  She grew up on a horse farm in Sweden, where her love for horses and the outdoors began early. Gina spent eight years riding trackwork for leading Thoroughbred racing stables in Australia and is now back riding racehorses in Sydney alongside her polar training.  Her previous expeditions include becoming the first woman to cross Lake Baikal in Siberia solo by foot, skiing solo from North Cape to Jäckvik, crossing Svalbard on skis, cycling 2700km from Sydney to Cairns, and hiking the full length of Norway with her partner and their dog. She also spent eight years living near North Cape, the northernmost point of Europe, training in extreme Arctic conditions.  Through her journey, Gina hopes to inspire others—especially women—to push beyond their limits, take on big challenges, and discover what they're truly capable of. ***  New episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast drop every Tuesday at 7 AM (UK time)! Make sure to subscribe so you never miss the inspiring journeys and incredible stories of tough women pushing boundaries.  Do you want to support the Tough Girl Mission to increase the amount of female role models in the media in the world of adventure and physical challenges? Support via Patreon!

Running 230 km Through The Arctic Circle!   This is a one take 'press record and talk' episode about my experience running 230km through the Arctic circle. I talk a little about my preparation for the challenge but this episode is heavy on the mindset side of things and focuses heavily on the mental tools I used to get to the finish line after tearing my Achilles 86km from the end.   Today's episode is part of the 'best of' podcast series and first aired 11th March 2019.

Mark Piesing, author of N-4 Down: The Hunt for the Arctic Airship Italia, recounts a secret meeting in Norway in July 1925 that brought together legendary explorer Roald Amundsen and Italian engineer Umberto Nobile to plan the first airship flight over the North Pole. Amundsen, seeking a final financial triumph and the completion of his polar legacy, joined forces with Nobile, a brilliant designer facing political pressure from Mussolini's fascist regime. Their initial 1926 expedition in the airship Norge was a success, but it sparked a bitter rivalry as Nobile was celebrated as a "new Columbus" while Amundsen felt sidelined. By 1928, Nobile returned to the Arctic in a new airship, the Italia, a mission fueled by nationalistic pride and individual obsession. After reaching the North Pole, the craft encountered fierce winds and heavy ice, eventually smashing into the frozen wilderness. The crash split the crew; six men drifted away with the airship's envelope and vanished forever, while ten survivors, including Nobile, were stranded on the ice. A massive international rescue effort ensued, leading to the tragic disappearance of Amundsen, who vanished while flying to save his rival. The Soviet icebreaker Krassin eventually rescued the remaining survivors. However, Nobile's reputation was permanently tarnished when he allowed himself to be rescued first, leaving his crew behind. Upon returning to Italy, he faced the wrath of Mussolini, as the fascist state used him as a scapegoat to deflect from the expedition's failure. (1)1906 AMUNDSEN

Doctor Who's ⁠Cold War⁠ has the perfect pitch: an Ice Warrior wakes up aboard a Soviet nuclear submarine in 1983, with Matt Smith, Jenna Coleman, Liam Cunningham, Tobias Menzies and David Warner trapped beneath the Arctic ice. So why does it feel less like The Hunt for Red October with a Martian and more like an ordinary Doctor Who episode that happens to be wet? Join us as we crack open Skaldak's armor, question whether submerged missiles can actually launch, salute the man who may have saved the real world in 1983, and prosecute Mark Gatiss for choosing the wrong Ultravox song. The sets are drenched, the cast is stacked and the premise is nuclear—but the payoff? This means nothing to us.

What if one transformed life could change a family? What if one family could influence a community, one community could impact a nation, and one nation could help shape the world? From the frozen Arctic to the southern edge of South America, the Americas contain extraordinary diversity, beauty, creativity, influence, opportunity, and spiritual need. Some people live in global cities shaped by technology, commerce, education, sport, entertainment, and political influence. Others live in Indigenous settlements, mountain villages, border communities, coastal regions, islands, forests, rural farmlands, or neighbourhoods affected by poverty, migration, violence, disaster, and economic uncertainty. Yet behind every headline, national crisis, policy debate, and statistic are real people—people created in the image of God. 31 Days of Standing in the Gap for the Americas: The Americas Before God — When Nations Cry and Heaven Listens: A Journey of Life Stories, Prayer, Reflection and Kingdom Transformation is more than a prayer guide. It is a thirty-one-day journey through North America, Central America, South America, the Caribbean, the Arctic regions, and the islands of the seas. Through compelling life stories, thought-provoking questions, Scripture, reflection, prayer, declarations, and practical action, this book invites readers to see the nations through the eyes of God. The journey explores migration, family separation, Indigenous dignity, racial reconciliation, leadership, justice, poverty, healthcare, education, natural-resource stewardship, disaster resilience, environmental responsibility, sport, media, culture, missions, Church unity, and national transformation. Each day moves beyond awareness into informed intercession and practical Kingdom engagement. Whether you are an intercessor, pastor, missionary, disciple-maker, ministry leader, businessperson, educator, public servant, small-group facilitator, student, or believer seeking a deeper burden for the nations, this book will challenge you to think differently, pray intentionally, and participate more fully in God's redemptive purposes for the Americas. Because nations matter. Because communities matter. Because families matter. Because every soul matters. And because God is still looking for men and women willing to stand in the gap.

A brutal breakup. A six-pack on the cover of magazines. An engagement that ended. And the moment everything fell apart, the question that broke it all open: What have I actually been running from? Everything Brian built, every race, every trophy, every pound lifted, was fueled by self-hatred. The moment he stopped long enough to ask why, everything changed. Brian Keane is a 3x bestselling author, ultra-endurance athlete, and mindset coach who has helped 150+ entrepreneurs create sustainable change from the inside out. In this conversation, he and George go deep on identity, self-worth, the four quadrants of a fulfilling life, and what it actually takes to stop optimizing the wrong thing. What You'll Learn In This Episode: Why keeping weight off is harder than losing it and the real reason why The four quadrant framework: health, wealth, love, and fulfillment How scarcity scales with success and how to rewire your relationship with money The "chains of habits" and the oak tree analogy for behavior change Why most entrepreneurs are more comfortable in their old story than writing a new one The director's cut thought experiment for discharging trauma and limiting beliefs The horse experiment: how to identify when you're the common denominator Why your mess becomes your message and why vulnerability is the real competitive edge Key Takeaways: ✔️You can't give from an empty cup. Entrepreneurs are the last to prioritize themselves, and the first to pay the price for it. ✔️Fueling from gratitude instead of fear is not a mindset hack. It's the difference between a decade of anxiety and a decade of sustainable output. ✔️The chains of habits are too loose to be felt until they're too strong to be broken. A habit is a seed. Leave it alone long enough and it becomes an oak tree. ✔️The horse experiment: if three people call you a horse, get a saddle. The common denominator in every repeated pattern is you. ✔️The director's cut: create an alternative version of your charged story. Not to live in fantasy, but to discharge the energy so you can look at it clearly. ✔️Frequency attracts tribe. When you go deeper on your own work, what you attract changes — in relationships, in business, and in life. ✔️Water rises to the level it's comfortable at. Your environment, community, and inner work determine your ceiling. ✔️Your mess is your message. Being witnessed in vulnerability neutralizes the charge and unlocks your next chapter.

As Halloween season creeps closer, Terrifying & True begins the descent into darker stories with a special compilation of disappearances, ghost ships, lost colonies, missing people, wilderness mysteries, and unexplained cases that still haunt history.This is Vanished Without a Trace — a chilling collection of scary true stories about the places where people entered the dark and never came back.Inside this special Terrifying & True compilation:The Lost Colony of Roanoke — An entire English settlement vanishes from early America, leaving behind one haunting clue and centuries of theories. The Lost Franklin Expedition — A doomed Arctic voyage disappears into ice, starvation, fear, and one of exploration history's most disturbing mysteries. The Mary Celeste — A ship is found drifting across the Atlantic with its crew gone, its cargo intact, and no explanation that fully satisfies the imagination. The Disappearance of Angela Hammond — A late-night phone call turns into a terrifying missing-person case that still chills those who hear it. The Bennington Triangle — A quiet stretch of Vermont becomes linked to a series of strange disappearances, eerie folklore, and wilderness dread. Dyatlov Pass Mystery — Nine hikers die in the Ural Mountains under circumstances that have fueled decades of fear, investigation, and speculation. The Vanishing of Brandon Swanson — A young man disappears while speaking to his father on the phone, leaving behind one of modern true crime's most haunting unanswered questions. The Alaska Triangle — A massive wilderness region becomes infamous for vanished planes, missing travelers, strange legends, and stories that feel tailor-made for the Halloween season. Together, these stories form a journey through real mystery, dark history, eerie folklore, and the unsettling truth that sometimes the scariest thing is not finding a body, a killer, or a confession. Sometimes the scariest thing is finding nothing at all.

What would a failing city look like? Would one be able to tell if, for example, London or New York were a busted flush? What would be the markers? Social discord, unwalkable streets, cultivated inequality and polarization, declining mental and physical health might seem like some measures to test.Perhaps a better question is what would a growing city look like? This, as I read it, is the question Gabriella Bennett seeks to answer in her book, How to Build a City: Journeys into the Urban Future, which is coming out with Headline Press on the 13 August, and documents both her personal story and her explorations of places – from the Ukraine to Tokyo, from Florida to the Arctic - that have begun to remake themselves fit for us now. Given urbanisation, the central claim Bennett makes in How to Build a City is simple and insistent: the shape of where you live shapes the life you lead. Because cities both generate their crises and accelerate them, the act of rebuilding is the central moral and creative problem of any urban future.Gabriella's book is linked above; she can be found on her website, Instagram and LinkedIn. +Music credits: Bruno Gillick Image credits: © Gabriella Bennett.

Reneltta Arluk grew up on a trapline in the Northwest Territories, living off the land with her grandmother and the legendary Arctic dog team guide Archie Larocque. Those nomadic early years shaped a career that took her from founding the first professional theatre company in the Northwest Territories to becoming the first Indigenous woman to direct at the Stratford Festival. Now a leader at the National Gallery of Canada, she joins guest host Gill Deacon to talk about carrying stories forward from the trapline to gallery walls.

Wondering how to raise a reader?Worried about graphic novels, reluctant readers, or kids who just won't sit still long enough to finish a chapter?Trying to figure out whether screen time is killing your child's love of books — or whether your son who only reads Diary of a Wimpy Kid even counts as a reader?In this episode Stephanie reframes the whole conversation.Because the question most parents are asking, "how do I get my kid to read", is actually the wrong question. The better question is: how do you raise someone who thinks of themselves as a reader?Starting with the moment she discovered her daughter Katie used to cover her reading lamp with her hand when she heard footsteps in the hallway so nobody would know she was still awake reading past her bedtime. She wasn't sneaking her phone. She was sneaking her book.This episode covers: Are graphic novels real reading? (Yes.

Sustainability conversations usually center on ecosystems, emissions targets, and corporate pledges, but this episode makes the case that people belong at the center of that conversation too. Andrew looks at how communities living closest to refineries, extraction sites, and industrial waterfronts carry a disproportionate share of the pollution burden, often without having consented to the risk in the first place. Using a Philadelphia refinery as a case study, Andrew walks through how fenceline communities experience higher poverty rates, higher rates of residents of color, and elevated cancer and respiratory risk compared to their surrounding cities. He extends that pattern to wildfire response, contrasting how affluent California communities were able to evacuate and rebuild after the Santa Ana wind fires with how remote Northern Ontario and Arctic communities, some with only one road in and one road out, had to be airlifted out entirely. The episode also revisits New York's Hudson River, once devastated by industrial chemical runoff and now home to returning oysters, menhaden, and whales after decades of restoration work. The back half of the episode turns to policy. As federal environmental justice efforts recede in 2026, states including Minnesota, Illinois, and Massachusetts are stepping into that gap, and nonprofit legal teams are winning court challenges against federal rollbacks. Andrew closes with a reminder that protecting the environment and protecting people are frequently the same fight, and that sustainable business practices tend to protect local economies as much as they protect public health. Takeaways Communities near industrial facilities carry a disproportionate pollution burden, often without their consent Fenceline communities show higher poverty rates, higher percentages of residents of color, and elevated cancer and respiratory risk Wildfire evacuation capacity varies sharply by community resources and infrastructure The Hudson River's recovery shows environmental restoration is possible after decades of industrial damage States are advancing environmental justice policy as federal efforts recede in 2026 Courts have blocked some federal rollbacks of environmental justice funding Protecting the environment and protecting public health are frequently the same fight Support Independent Podcasts: https://www.speakupforblue.com/patreon Need help with your ocean non-profit, company, or project?

Host Larry Weishuhn welcomes Dr. Mike Arnold, a geneticist and well seasoned outdoorsman, to discuss his recent hunting adventures in Africa. Mike shares that he maximizes his transatlantic flights by booking mini-safaris to hunt multiple species across diverse terrains. Mike began his trip in Johannesburg before heading to the Great Karoo, a high-desert region sitting at 6,000 to 6,500 feet in elevation. He hunted on a newly organized 50,000-acre property divided into a 28,000-acre low-fenced area and a 20,000-acre high-fenced area used to protect white rhinos from poachers. His targets were the Bontebok and its closely related subspecies, the Blessbok, both of which were historically driven to near extinction by farmers but saved through agricultural game-farming systems. Mike noted that both species were highly flighty and challenging to stalk, comparing their behavior to North American Pronghorn antelope. He successfully harvested a beautiful Bontebok ram at 250 yards, and after missing two initial shots, harvested a Blessbok at the same distance. The high-elevation terrain was unseasonably cold, and the hunters were snowed on while pursuing game in the higher mountain property. Mike traveled higher into the Stormberg area for a bird hunt commissioned by Diana Rupp for Sports Afield magazine. Using a Fausti shotgun, he targeted Greywing partridge, Guineafowl, and Snipe. The Greywing population was surprisingly sparse, which locals attributed to a recent fungal infection. The wild Guineafowl proved to be incredibly fast runners, requiring a spot-and-stalk hunting approach to flush them out. Snipe hunting in the marshes was extremely difficult because the birds fly only a few feet off the ground, though Mike eventually harvested a female after two missed shots. Despite his wife Frances initially forbidding more taxidermy in the house, they agreed to commission a full-body mount of the snipe. The couple then flew to Coutada 11 in Mozambique, an area characterized by massive conservation successes, including hyena reintroductions and a lion population that grew from 24 to 100 individuals. At Frances's request, Mike embarked on a "community buffalo" hunt to provide meat for a local village. This was a "reverse trophy hunt" where hunters pay to harvest an old, non-exportable Cape buffalo bull solely to feed the community. After a grueling 10-hour track through woods and crocodile-infested marshes, Mike successfully shot the buffalo at 178 yards using a .416 Rigby CZ bolt-action rifle. Mike also hunted a Crawshay's zebra, a unique plains zebra noted for having stripes that go all the way down to its hooves and an asymmetrical backline. He harvested the zebra at 65 yards using his guide's custom .338-06 rifle loaded with Hornady ELD-X bullets. Frances requested the zebra be made into a flat skin rather than a traditional rug with a felt backing to avoid tripping on it in their bedroom. Mike is gathering material for his upcoming book focusing on hunters who have helped bring species back from the brink of extinction. He has two remaining hunts for the book: an Arctic snowmobile hunt for muskox and a hunt for chamois in Spain.

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. These bubbles change underwater sound and light, help transfer gases from ocean to atmosphere (helping the ocean breathe) and also eject ocean material into the air. She has spent months working on research ships in the Antarctic, the Pacific, the North Atlantic and the Arctic, and is an experienced field scientist. Helen has been a regular science presenter on the BBC for 15 years, covering the physics of the natural world in BBC2 landmark documentaries (including ‘Orbit', ‘Operation iceberg' and ‘Supersenses'), and the physics of everyday life in a range of BBC4 documentaries (including ‘From ice to fire: The incredible science of temperature', ‘Sound waves: The symphony of physics', and ‘Colour: The spectrum of science', along  with many others). She currently co-hosts BBC Radio 4's flagship climate and environment programme Rare Earth. Helen's first book Storm in a Teacup won the Italian Asimov Prize and the Louis J. Battan Author prize from the American Meteorological Society. Blue Machine won the Wainwright Prize for Conservation Writing. She was awarded the Institute of Physics Gold Medal in 2018 for her work on physics communication, and an Honorary Fellowship of the British Science Association in 2020. She has been a Trustee of Royal Museums Greenwich since 2018, and was one of the 2020 Royal Institution Christmas Lecturers, giving her Lecture on the topic of the ocean.

For decades, Canada has enjoyed the benefits of NATO while spending comparatively little on its own military. That era may be coming to an end.This episode is brought to you by BioCanRx, a federally-funded Canadian not-for-profit research network dedicated to cutting edge cancer immunotherapy research that they're helping Canadian researchers bring from labs to patients in clinical trials –– all in Canada.If a drug is discovered in a Canadian lab, and conducts successful clinical trials in Canada, there's a chance it will be launched in Canada. So how do we get more drugs out of Canadian labs and keep them here? Every year around $500 million is spent on Canadian cancer research, but 70 per cent of that is for early-stage work –– discovering whether a therapy can do something in the lab. That leaves limited resources for the complex and often disjointed process of moving Canadian innovations from discovery to a clinical trial and hopefully into the health system.BioCanRx has stepped into the gap. They specialize in "translational research" –– the unsexy work that makes for boring press releases, but gets results: 16 Canadian cancer immunotherapy clinical trials in just a decade, treating more than 400 patients.Thanks to this, BioCanRx has first-hand experience with the systemic disconnects that are trapping discoveries in Canadian labs, or sending them out of the country to be developed. They have straightforward ideas about how to fix the problems, and spoiler alert: the answer isn't just 'add more money." Visit BioCanRx.com to learn more.This week on On The Line, host Jen Gerson is joined by Jean-François Bélanger, Senior Non-Resident Associate Fellow at the NATO Defense College, for a wide-ranging discussion about Canada's long-overdue military buildup and what it means for the future of the Alliance. Bélanger's work focuses on deterrence, nuclear strategy, wargaming, multi-domain operations, and military decision-making, making him well placed to explain the strategic thinking behind today's defence debates.As Ottawa commits to dramatically increasing defence spending, Gerson and Bélanger examine what those promises will actually require. Is Canada genuinely preparing for a more dangerous world, or simply catching up after decades of underinvestment? What capabilities do the Canadian Armed Forces need most urgently, and how should those investments be prioritized?The conversation also explores how NATO has evolved in recent years, how the Alliance has adapted to the return of Donald Trump to the White House, and what Canada's role should be in an increasingly uncertain international environment. They discuss the growing strategic importance of the Arctic, the impact of emerging technologies on military planning, and how the character of warfare is changing.This episode is also brought to you by the Forest Products Association of Canada. Canada's forest products sector is not asking Ottawa to start over. The federal government has heard the advice. It has recognized the challenges. And it has put a plan on the table. Now the test is action.That means clearing made-in-Canada barriers: regulatory duplication, transportation bottlenecks, and uncertainty around predictable access to manage our forests. It means working with provinces to protect communities from wildfire risk and giving companies the confidence to invest here at home. Nearly 200,000 Canadians working in this sector are looking for results.The playbook is written. Now Ottawa needs to deliver. Learn more at fpac.ca.Along the way, Bélanger explains why modern defence planning increasingly relies on forecasting, simulations, and sophisticated wargaming, and why many Canadians misunderstand both NATO's purpose and Canada's obligations within it.It's a timely conversation about deterrence, alliance politics, and the difficult choices Canada faces as it prepares for a less stable world.For more, be sure to check out our main page at ReadTheLine.ca.

Why does Canada speak both English and French? Why is Canada's head of state the King of the United Kingdom? Why didn't Canada become part of the United States when the rest of Britain's North American colonies rebelled? Canada is one of the largest countries on Earth. It stretches from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific, and all the way north to the Arctic. It has one of the world's wealthiest economies, consistently ranks among the best places to live, and is often seen as one of the most multicultural societies in the world. Every year, hundreds of thousands of people choose to make Canada their new home. The history of Canada is fascinating. Indigenous peoples lived there for thousands of years before Europeans arrived. It was claimed and settled by both France and Britain. It developed differently from its neighbour the United States and gradually evolved into an independent country while still having a close relationship with the British Crown. So, in today's episode, we're going to explore how Canada was formed, why English and French coexist, how Canada developed its unique relationship with Britain, and the biggest challenges shaping Canada's future. And we will do all of this while practicing your English listening comprehension and learning some new vocabulary.

On this unscripted Friday livestream edition of Right On Radio the host returns to a stripped-down format (no camera) to cover breaking news, follow-ups from the previous show, and faith-focused reflections. The episode opens with an update on controversial pastor Steven Anderson — the allegations from his children, the online influencer reaction, and a plea for accountable, loving correction rather than fanaticism. The program moves into a "Word on Word" moment, comparing two Bible verses (1 Corinthians 10:13 and Psalm 112:5) and inviting viewer feedback, followed by listener interaction about the show format and streaming platforms (Rumble vs X). Major news segments include a clear, listener-oriented explainer of the NDAA House votes using a viral Marjorie Taylor Greene clip — the difference between the rule vote and final passage and why the "courageous no" matters — and a deep dive into the growing surveillance-camera controversy. The host examines the Flock camera backlash, alleged ties between competing firms (Axon), and implicated investors — from Silicon Valley firms to institutional shareholders — stressing that brand labels don't change the core threat of mass surveillance and urging civic action over vigilante responses. In a substantial geopolitical analysis, the host frames the Israel–Iran tensions as part of a larger banking/energy struggle: control of choke points (Panama Canal, Strait of Hormuz, Arctic routes), insurance and shipping pressures, and Trump-era moves to realign global power (energy leverage, Abraham Accords outreach). The segment connects these developments to broader themes about the City of London, central banking, and a speculative thesis that Jerusalem could emerge as a new global power center — plus a candid take on Trump's role in the unfolding end-times narrative. Throughout the episode the host references clips and positions from public figures (Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Thomas Massie), offers practical context for listeners trying to follow complex policy maneuvers, and recommends community-level responses where possible. The show closes with an uplifting Friday music pick, reminders for Saturday night prayer and Sunday night Bible study, and a call to love God, family, and neighbors while engaging your community.

Karl Hinett is a British Army veteran, ultra-endurance athlete and motivational speaker whose life is a lived example in resilience and the power of the human spirit. Born and raised in Tipton, West Midlands, Hinett's journey from a wounded soldier to a world record breaking runner has inspired many around the globe.Service and SacrificeDriven by a desire for adventure and service, Hinett joined the Staffordshire Regiment at just 16 years old. By age 18, he was deployed to Basra, Iraq, serving as a gunner in a Warrior armoured vehicle. In September 2005, his life changed forever during a mission to rescue two fellow British soldiers. Amidst a violent riot, his tank was hit by multiple petrol bombs. Engulfed in flames, Hinett was forced to exit the vehicle while still alight. He sustained 37% third-degree burns to his face, hands, arms, and torso.The road through to recovery is now life long. Hinett spent ten days in an induced coma and underwent over 20 major reconstructive surgeries at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham. Rather than allowing his injuries to define his limitations, he used his recovery period to set a radical new goal: he would run for those who couldn't.Reclaiming Life Through EnduranceIn 2011/12, Hinett made global headlines by completing 100 marathons in two years, raising significant funds for the burns unit that saved his life. This was only the beginning. He transitioned into the world of high altitude mountaineering and ultra endurance racing, summiting Mount Manaslu and joining the Walking With The Wounded team for an Everest expedition.His competitive drive led him to the Invictus Games, where he represented the UK and secured a Silver medal in the 1500m at the 2018 Sydney games. His thirst for extreme challenges recently culminated in "Project Fire and Ice," a 514km trek across the Arctic Circle in early 2025. Alongside SAS: Who Dares Wins stars Jason Fox and Aldo Kane, Hinett braved temperatures of -30°C to raise over £190,000 for SSAFA, the Armed Forces charity.Legacy and AdvocacyToday, Hinett is a sought-after motivational speaker in the UK, specialising in mental fortitude and overcoming trauma.

Ron Clutz summarizes themes from his “Science Matters” blog, framing climate change as three linked claims: humans warm the Earth, the warming is dangerous, and government can stop it. He argues climate sensitivity estimates are declining and models overpredict warming, citing comparisons of model outputs to observations, weak long-term temperature correlation with fossil fuel use, and claims that storms, wildfires, sea level rise, Arctic ice, and drought trends are not worsening as asserted. He criticizes “reductionism” to CO2 and radiative forcing, emphasizing water vapor, convection, and hydrology, plus solar/cloud and ocean-cycle influences (ENSO/PDO/AMO). He also questions adjusted temperature records and UN policy effectiveness.00:00 Meet Ron Clutz01:13 Climate Change Three Claims05:18 Is Warming Dangerous10:17 Can Government Stop It12:23 Reductionism In Climate Science17:32 Greenhouse Physics And Water Vapor23:10 CO2 Sources And Temperature Lag25:26 Complexity And Data Adjustments33:29 Extreme Events And Attribution35:53 Model Failures And Scenarios42:10 Testing Greenhouse Theory51:02 Sunshine Clouds And Solar Cycles55:19 Oceans Drive Climate Cycles01:02:24 Hydrology And Closing Thoughts01:04:17 Wrap Up And Next Sessionhttps://rclutz.com/=========Slides, summaries, references, and transcripts of my podcasts: https://tomn.substack.com/p/podcast-summariesMy Linktree: https://linktr.ee/tomanelson1

Can a trek become a work of art? As British artist and theatre-maker Tom Bailey starts his 600km on skis, Jo Morris tracks his progress through the borderlands of the Arctic where he encounters communities under threat from the climate crisis. As melting ice opens up new shipping routes, sparking debates over sovereignty Tom's ultra-slow journey will also examine the future of cultural tourism.

The Arctic serves as the world's refrigerator, keeping the planet cool. But temperatures in the Arctic are rising nearly four times faster than the rest of the world and its sea ice is near a historic low. We put out a call to scientists aboard research vessels currently sailing in the Arctic Ocean, and two answered “aye.” Hear our ship-to-shore conversations with them about how warmer temperatures affect life on land and sea. Plus, a biologist who recently returned from the field describes how he inadvertently stumbled upon surprising data during his decades-long study of polar bears.  Guests: Autun Purser – Marine biologist at the Alfred- Wegener Institute and the current Chief Scientist on the Arctic research vessel, the Polarstern  Andrew Derocher – Zoologist at the University of Alberta in Canada who is leading a decades-long study on polar bears of the West Hudson Bay region, in the high Canadian North    Jonathan Nash – Oceanographer, Oregon State University, and member of the GIANT team sailing near Greenland aboard the RRS Sir David Attenborough  Descripción en español Big Picture Science is part of the Airwave Media podcast network. Please contact advertising@airwavemedia.com to inquire about advertising on Big Picture Science.

Deserts, the Arctic, outer space—these extreme environments are often seen as inhospitable places at the edges of our maps. But from the 1940s through the 1960s, spurred by the diverse and unfamiliar regions the US military had navigated during World War II, the United States defense establishment took a keen interest in these places, dispatching troops to the Aleutian Islands, North Africa, the South Pacific, and beyond. To preserve the country's status as a superpower after the war, to pave runways and build bridges, engineers had to understand and then conquer dunes, permafrost, and even the surface of the moon. Sand, Snow, and Stardust: How US Military Engineers Conquered Extreme Environments (University of Chicago Press, 2025) by Dr. Gretchen Heefner explores how the US military generated a new understanding of these environments and attempted to master them, intending to cement America's planetary power. Operating in these regions depended as much on scientific and cultural knowledge as on military expertise and technology. From General George S. Patton learning the hard way that the desert is not always hot, to the challenges of constructing a scientific research base under the Arctic ice, to the sheer implausibility of modeling Martian environments on Earth, Dr. Heefner takes us on a wry expedition into the extremes and introduces us to the people who have shaped our insight into these extraordinary environments. Even decades after the first manned space flight, plans for human space exploration and extraplanetary colonization are still based on what we know about stark habitats on Earth. An entertaining survey of the relationship between environmental history and military might, Sand, Snow, and Stardust also serves as a warning about the further transformation of the planet—whether through desertification, melting ice caps, or attempts to escape it entirely. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

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.

Three Kalaallit Inuit women sit with Zaya and Maurizio Benazzo, who met them while filming on their traditional land in Kalaallit Nunaat (Greenland). Ikimaliq Pikilak carries the revival of Inuit tattooing, Nuka Alice carries drum dance, and Avianja Rakel Sanimuinaq carries her family's lineage of healing. Together they speak about what colonization severed, what gratitude makes survivable in the Arctic, and Sila, the word that holds weather, breath, and the consciousness connecting all living things. Recorded in June 2025 during the launch week of The Eternal Song, this conversation arrives now to celebrate Sila, the new film from Science and Nonduality featuring all three women, streaming at theeternalsong.org/sila. Guests Ikimaliq Pikilak is a Kalaallit tattoo practitioner. Trained in the Western tattoo industry in Denmark, she returned to Greenland and, through the traditionally tattooed mummies of Qilakitsoq, began an eleven-year journey of reclaiming Inuit women's markings: their meanings, their protocols, and their place in healing. Nuka Alice Lund is a drum dancer and teacher from the west coast of Kalaallit Nunaat. Taught by Paulina, who gathered songs from the elders of East Greenland, she works to normalize the use of Inuit drum dance and its songs, teaching adults and carrying the stories, intentions, and patience the practice asks for. Avianja Rakel Sanimuinaq is a healer working within her family's ancestral lineage. Her practice spans soul retrieval, putting souls to rest, and the older responsibility of rebalancing relations between people, land, and the spirit world. Of mixed Inuk and Danish parentage, she speaks in the conversation about finding her roots through her ancestors and helping others use her roots to find their own.

Guest: Dr. Jennifer Francis, Woodwell Climate Research CenterWhen we think about the Arctic, it's easy to picture a remote landscape of sea ice and polar bears. But what happens in the far north doesn't stay there. As the Arctic continues to warm at an unprecedented pace, scientists are uncovering how those changes may be influencing weather patterns across the Northern Hemisphere—from prolonged heat waves and persistent droughts to heavy rainfall and unusual swings in the jet stream. Today on Weather Geeks, we're joined by atmospheric scientist Dr. Jennifer Francis, whose pioneering research has helped shape our understanding of the connection between Arctic climate change and the behavior of the jet stream. We'll explore why the Arctic is warming so rapidly, how those changes can ripple through the atmosphere, and what they may mean for the persistent weather patterns we've seen in recent years—including the extreme heat that has gripped much of Europe this summer.Chapters00:00 Dr. Jennifer Francis's background and interest in weather05:22 Jet stream patterns and their role in extreme weather13:21 Break 114:31 Mechanisms of Arctic amplification and feedbacks22:57 Stratospheric polar vortex and winter weather effects25:04 Break 225:58 Summer jet stream behavior and climate connections32:08 Ocean heat waves and their influence on jet stream patterns34:33 Current research and future challenges in Arctic climate studies37:06 Closing remarks and resourcesResourcesWoodwell Climate Research Center - https://www.woodwellclimate.org/Jennifer Francis - Research Profile - https://www.woodwellclimate.org/our-scientists/jennifer-francis/Clausius-Clapeyron Relationship - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clausius%E2%80%93Clapeyron_relation Guest linksTwitter - https://x.com/WoodwellClimate https://x.com/JFrancisClimateResearch Center - https://www.woodwellclimate.org/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Three experts on Extreme Heat: Elizabeth Hanna, Robert Kopp and Jonathan Patz. Deadly heat in India, unheard-of heat in France. The Arctic is thawing out. The U.S. East Coast roasted over 100 degree F. Around the world, people have died and many more  …

For generations, Inuit communities lived across the Arctic, travelling with the seasons and relying on the land. But in the mid-20th century, Canadian government policies, including relocations, moved many into permanent settlements, reshaping their way of life.In the 1970s, a new generation of Inuit activists launched a movement to reclaim control over their land and push for greater autonomy.In 1999, the newly created Nunavut territory gained its own government.Inuit politician and activist Paul Quassa tells Sam Gruet about the fight to regain control over their land, the long negotiations with the federal government, and the moment he felt the campaign had succeeded.Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive. Witness History is for those fascinated by and curious about the past. We take you to the events that have shaped our world through the eyes of the people who were there. For nine minutes every day, we take you back in time and all over the world, to examine wars, coups, scientific discoveries, cultural moments and much more. Recent episodes explore everything from how the Excel spreadsheet was developed, the creation of cartoon rabbit Miffy and how the sound barrier was broken.We look at the lives of some of the most famous leaders, artists, scientists and personalities in history, including: the moment Reagan and Gorbachev met in Geneva, Haitian singer Emerante de Pradines' life and Omar Sharif's legendary movie entrance in Lawrence of Arabia.You can learn all about fascinating and surprising stories, like the invention of a stent which has saved lives around the world; the birth of the G7; and the meeting of Maldives' ministers underwater.

Something tall and black is standing on the mountain above the Arctic outpost, it hasn't moved in days, and every man who sees it is a man who has something to answer for.EPISODE BLOG PAGE (includes sources): https://weirddarkness.com/shapeinthesnowFEATURED STORIES IN THIS EPISODE: A machinist ships out to an Arctic research outpost for a one-month government contract, keeping a journal at his wife's insistence to pass the time. The work is dull and the crew gets along. Then he sees something standing on the mountainside — tall, black, motionless, miles off — and finds he isn't the only man in camp who can see it. His roommate has heard of it before, from a grandfather who spent his life being watched by it, and who left behind a single line copied from an asylum patient's journal: “All of our mistakes are never forgotten.” Day by day, the thing on the mountain is closer.LISTEN ON PODCAST APPS: Look for this podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, Amazon Music, Pandora, TuneIn Radio, and other podcast apps.

The Cold War is now beginning to look a bit colder, and the game of spy vs. spy isn't just between Russia and the West, but between agents of the Deep State who wish to use a third world war to deliver a World Order packaged with a bow to the globalist superstate. The question now worrying Europe is whether or not this is all that Russia is doing in the Arctic, and the conspiracy theory is that now that the United States Deep State wants a war with Russia, are they testing nuclear weapons in the Arctic as well? On this chilling episode, Clyde Lewis exposes the ARCTIC TRINITY. The original broadcast was on February 20, 2017.
