Who we are as people, how we feel and receive ourselves, the state of our health, purpose, connection to nature and community determines our interactions, beliefs, choices in regards to the ways we act towards earth, other people etc. Nathan Maingard describes himself as having been a misfit in our society at a young age. Not fitting into the boxes that school, society, government, predetermined, which all seemed a skin too tight for him. In this episode he shares how he transformed from thinking he was the problem, acting out and feeling out of place, to living his truth and supporting other people in that journey as well. We reflect on the way many of us feel out of place or forced into structures and the fallacy of "this is just the way things are". Nathan argues that we ARE ALL already FREE. That with the decisions to show up for ourselves and making choices from the moment we get up in the morning that set ourselves up for peace and well-being, we are freeing ourselves. There is a place for everyone to bring value to themselves and community. We need to foster a society and atmosphere that let's everyone contribute, because everyone CAN. There is no useless or valueless person. We all have hands, feet, mouths, eyes, ears and brains to use. Each in their own way and we must let go of the constraints that say that there are only certain predetermined and economically imposed ideas that determine which inputs are worth anything. This way we can let go of feelings of uselessness of not being enough of being "misfits" in a society of essentially a majority of "misfits" that are struggling along, working against themselves and natural cycles and rhythms. "people sitting around a fire with their families, who are at peace with themselves, who have purpose and connection and live with the rhythms of nature won't even look up to listen to that pained, disconnected person coming along, proposing to start a war or plunder another family's home."

gwot.rocks - God, the World, and Other Things!

One of the earliest poems I remember hearing, that fundamentally stuck in my brain, it would have been 7th grade, is Robert Frost's “Mending Wall”. Two phrases that are cleated in my brain are: “Something there is that doesn't love a wall” and “Good fences make good neighbors”. I have included in the show notes a YouTube link to an actual recording of Frost himself reciting his poem. It's fascinating to hear. Frost makes the powerful statement- “Before I built a wall I'd ask to know what I was walling in and what I was walling out?” What about walls? Where do you end up as a person if there are no walls? Are ALL walls bad? The human spirit longs for freedom to soar and become, but how is that possible from the vantage point of fallen man, who transgressed that first wall of God mandated prohibition, only to land outside the wall in ruin and eternal damnation? There IS a spiritual wall that comes from God, that both protects, restricts, AND at the same time provides ultimate freedom and liberation. In this episode we will discuss how we arrived at our present state collapse in our society and how we get back to a place of peace, prosperity, and meaningful community.

Happy Monday!!! Yes. We're a bit early Let's do it anyway!!! Welcome to The Coffee Run The Coffee Run 612 - Accountant conversations this morning!! I had a meeting this morning with my accountant about last financial year (we run from 1 July - 30th of June here in Aus) and he asked me when looking at the numbers “Are you happy with your numbers from last year?” … to which I laughed!!!!! An important question you need to answer for yourself is: What are your measures of success? Your measures of success will be different to mine. Which are likely to be different to someone else you know.. not because one is better or worse than the other.. but because we all have different values. When we think about our hierarchy of values (which change, by the way)… it's important to think about how we are demonstrating those through what we put out there. Are ALL of our values important to communicate? Your values ripple through everything you put out there! They help people to see ‘behind the curtain' We talked about why is THAT important?

For example, I tease my friend and he teases me back because we think it's funny, but I won't do it to others because they don't think it's funny.8. 35:58 {Are All of God’s Actions Infallible?} How do I approach a conversation with someone who doesn't believe God is infallible? He believes in the God of the Bible, but he doesn't think all of God's actions are "good," like in the book of Job.9. 43:44 {Identifying & Rejecting False Teaching} What's up with all the bad hermeneutics out there? How can those of us without formal training avoid bad interpretation/application of Scripture by ourselves and be able to spot them in sermons, etc.?10. 46:21 {Does God Hate Satan?} Does God hate Satan and the demons?11. 48:01 {What Did Jesus Mean by “Be Perfect”?} What did Jesus mean when He said, "Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect" in Matthew 5: 48? Wouldn't that mean we're all condemned since we sin every day/week?12. 54:39 {About Jacob & Esau} Why didn't God punish Jacob and his mother for stealing Esau's birthright and blessing (Genesis 27)? In fact, why does He love Jacob and hate Esau (Malachi 1)?13. 57:53 {About “Unknown”/ Tongues in 1 Cor.} What do you make of the added word “unknown” in 1 Corinthians 14:2-3, which is not in the original Greek? Could it mean that it is not a different sort of tongues, rather, that no one understands them?14. 1:00:27 {A Difficult Passage – Ezekiel 45} Is Jesus offering sin sacrifices in Ezekiel 45?15. 1:03:23 {Should we Worship Using Instruments?} Should we use instruments in congregational church worship?

How can those of us without formal training avoid bad interpretation/application of Scripture by ourselves and be able to spot them in sermons, etc.?10. 46:21 {Does God Hate Satan?} Does God hate Satan and the demons?11. 48:01 {What Did Jesus Mean by “Be Perfect”?} What did Jesus mean when He said, "Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect" in Matthew 5: 48? Wouldn't that mean we're all condemned since we sin every day/week?12. 54:39 {About Jacob & Esau} Why didn't God punish Jacob and his mother for stealing Esau's birthright and blessing (Genesis 27)? In fact, why does He love Jacob and hate Esau (Malachi 1)?13. 57:53 {About “Unknown”/ Tongues in 1 Cor.} What do you make of the added word “unknown” in 1 Corinthians 14:2-3, which is not in the original Greek? Could it mean that it is not a different sort of tongues, rather, that no one understands them?14. 1:00:27 {A Difficult Passage – Ezekiel 45} Is Jesus offering sin sacrifices in Ezekiel 45?15. 1:03:23 {Should we Worship Using Instruments?} Should we use instruments in congregational church worship? Why or why not? The early church did not use instruments.16. 1:07:54 {What to Do When a Church Member is Out of Line} What should I do if a member of my fellowship with some mental issues has been making several false prophecies every day, saying literally "hear me for the lord speaks”?17. 1:09:27 {Book Recommendations?} What are some good books for important topics like systematic theology, hermeneutics, complementarianism, etc.?18. 1:11:50 {About the Subordination of the Son} How do you explain the subordination of Jesus (1 Corinthians 11:3; 15: 28) to the Father within Trinitarian t

Now, and today's topic is going to be dare to thrive and we're gonna be cleaning out700:01:23.820 --> 00:01:25.770Terry Wildemann: How did you get into this800:01:26.340 --> 00:01:29.040Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: Oh, sorry. Thank you so much for having me on your show.900:01:29.730 --> 00:01:34.200Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: I'm honored to be here with you and this is my I love talking about this. So the1000:01:34.470 --> 00:01:47.550Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: The short condensed version, how I really got into doing what I was doing what I do is that I got to a point in my life where I received a $50,000 check in the mail and I was able to take six months off to figure out what I wanted to be when I grew up.1100:01:48.090 --> 00:01:48.330Terry Wildemann: And at1200:01:48.360 --> 00:02:01.890Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: That point in my life I had, I was able to create order out of chaos. I loved creating order out of chaos and I had a background and energy healing Reiki and theta i didn't want to sit in a room with someone all day long and do sessions.1300:02:02.250 --> 00:02:03.330Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: And at that point.1400:02:03.510 --> 00:02:09.450Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: I watched that show hoarders for the first time and I became absolutely horrified.1500:02:10.200 --> 00:02:18.150Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: Because all of that stuff that's been accumulated around them that they've accumulated for years as like their Great Wall of China.1600:02:18.690 --> 00:02:27.600Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: And this show comes in and removes everything in a four day period and then films. The show in the process. And then they leave.1700:02:28.110 --> 00:02:38.490Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: And then that person has been completely exposed all of their defenses have been removed, and then you leave, and then the clutter comes back worse than it was before.1800:02:38.580 --> 00:02:42.390Terry Wildemann: Is the emotional stuff hasn't been healed that create clutter.1900:02:42.720 --> 00:02:51.990Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: It just causes more trauma by removing it all and leaving them exposed and raw and they're just out there like, and it just totally freaks them out and it gets worse.2000:02:52.320 --> 00:03:00.090Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: So that made me want to start a company that actually helped people get to the root of the clutter so that it didn't get that way in the first place.2100:03:00.360 --> 00:03:07.620Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: And that it doesn't keep coming back because it's our birthright to be happy and abundant in every area of our lives.2200:03:07.860 --> 00:03:15.480Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: And clutter is anything that gets in the way of that, whether it be the physical stuff in our environment or the mental stuff the limiting beliefs, the2300:03:15.690 --> 00:03:27.150Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: Repressed emotions resentments fears, all of that stuff. And so it made me want to create a company that could really help people access their birthright of being happy and abundant in every area of their life.2400:03:28.170 --> 00:03:32.520Terry Wildemann: How cool is that, so tell me, how do you work with people.2500:03:33.330 --> 00:03:41.460Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: I work with people in a couple ways. There's a lot of people that really just want to deal with the physical clutter and they don't want anything else and they want a solution they want2600:03:41.820 --> 00:03:51.870Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: They want you to help them get their office organized. They want you to help them with the pantry or the closet and you can kind of just feed them little pieces and little pieces and hope that someday they come along.2700:03:52.200 --> 00:04:04.200Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: But the real work happens when you actually start coaching with me. And we do the work on the inside because I have to teach you how to become present with your life because2800:04:04.440 --> 00:04:09.120Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: All of the clutter accumulates, because we avoid it, we resist it. And we deny it.2900:04:10.200 --> 00:04:19.950Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: Or we're hanging on to stuff because it feels really good. And when we're avoiding and hanging on. We can't allow what simply is to be3000:04:20.280 --> 00:04:29.640Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: And so the one thing that I teach my clients and I tell them this, I give them the keys to the kingdom in our first session. And if you just put this piece in practice, you'll be firing me shortly.3100:04:30.330 --> 00:04:44.370Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: All you need to do is learn to show up and bring your presence to your life. And when you can just sit with yourself and be present without judging yourself without trying to change anything. And just witness yourself exactly as you are.3200:04:44.760 --> 00:04:52.260Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: You begin to make space inside of yourself. Now the great thing about that is, there's a principle and operation in the universe that states.3300:04:52.830 --> 00:04:54.720Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: As above so below.3400:04:54.930 --> 00:05:07.620Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: As within so without it's the principle of correspondence. And so the outside is just a mirror of the inside. If you try to change the outside. First, it's really hard. It's like trying to get molasses to run up a hill in the middle of January. Right.3500:05:14.250 --> 00:05:21.900Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: And so when you do it from the outside, and it's going to drag yourself. It's so hard. But when you start making the space on the inside.3600:05:22.320 --> 00:05:25.920Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: It starts to happen naturally. And what's what changes is that3700:05:26.280 --> 00:05:37.440Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: Because you make space inside. You have to have space on the outside to it has to match. There's a law in place. So once you make the space you start wanting to make space outside3800:05:37.740 --> 00:05:49.950Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: And the reason, how I figured this out is, I was actually a really cluttered, messy kid growing up. You could not walk in my room. There were two paths on my floor, and I was the only one who knew where they were, they weren't existent to anybody else.3900:05:50.370 --> 00:05:59.910Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: I was super attached to stuff like office supplies containers books, CDs and people I had severe attachments to people and things and stuff like that.4000:06:00.450 --> 00:06:19.830Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: But I also experienced a lot of trauma and loss early in childhood and by the age of 15 I experienced what I consider to be the dark night of my soul, which for me was losing my older brother to suicide. It's tough, being the one to discover his body.4100:06:21.060 --> 00:06:39.690Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: And in the same moment in his suicide note inheriting all of his belongings. So at 15 years old. After finding him and his home. I had to then go back into that home and go through everything and figure out what I was going to keep and what other people could have4200:06:40.770 --> 00:06:42.180Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: So as you could imagine.4300:06:42.270 --> 00:06:43.890Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: At 15 years old my life pretty4400:06:43.890 --> 00:06:48.630Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: Much started to spiral into a black hole and I planned on killing myself. I didn't want to be here anymore.4500:06:48.840 --> 00:06:58.500Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: Oh, wow. And I also got kicked out of high school for being a danger to myself and others know men, mind you, a little hundred year old. I'm hundred pound like4600:06:58.710 --> 00:07:09.240Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: sophomore in high school, little tiny thing like maybe being considered a danger to myself and others and being kicked out of high school, and I wasn't allowed to return until I received intensive therapy.4700:07:10.440 --> 00:07:27.840Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: What that looked like was I spent the next year and a half of my life living in a residential treatment center for adolescence, but unbeknownst to me, that is where my life would drastically change because while I was living there. I was introduced to yoga in mindfulness4800:07:28.410 --> 00:07:28.620Terry Wildemann: And4900:07:28.860 --> 00:07:32.100Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: What yoga and mindfulness taught me in a nutshell was how to5000:07:32.100 --> 00:07:33.000Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: Come home.5100:07:33.030 --> 00:07:35.040Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: And be present in my body.5200:07:35.310 --> 00:07:46.350Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: For all that inner clutter repressed emotions resentments fears limiting beliefs. All of that stuff that had been accumulating. And as a result what started to happen was5300:07:46.890 --> 00:07:49.170Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: I got organized from the inside out.5400:07:49.350 --> 00:07:51.870Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: I started to go through my stuff.5500:07:51.930 --> 00:07:53.820Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: And I had to start going through it.5600:07:54.090 --> 00:07:58.710Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: But it was gradual.

I was like, I'm miserable. Like, I'm just tapped out I'm emotionally drained. I don't want to be here anymore.7300:10:05.340 --> 00:10:16.050Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: I'm not even connected to source anymore and I had remembered everything that I ever learned that it's our birthright to be happy and abundant in every area of our life. And I got to this point where I had to make a decision.7400:10:16.470 --> 00:10:24.690Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: I'm either going to end my life right now be done with this, or I'm going to do whatever it takes to get access to that and find out how to experience that.7500:10:25.050 --> 00:10:31.920Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: So I made that commitment to myself that I was going to make my happiness my number one priority because she was my number one priority for the longest time7600:10:32.220 --> 00:10:42.420Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: And so I had to put myself first. And when I made that decision. I started to practices in my life because I wasn't doing anything. I wasn't reading anything spiritual anymore because she didn't want to hear about it.7700:10:42.720 --> 00:10:49.680Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: I wasn't, you know, praying connecting meditating doing any of that. So I started with just five minutes a day.7800:10:50.040 --> 00:11:06.030Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: Sitting in my car before I went into work just doing this practice that I call allowing the now just showing up and meeting myself right where I am, without any judgment and letting whatever is simply be and I became what I call a happiness seeking missile.7900:11:06.810 --> 00:11:07.380Terry Wildemann: I love it.8000:11:07.740 --> 00:11:12.870Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: A heat seeking missile locks onto a heat signature and doesn't let go until it makes impact.

And then there are8100:11:13.290 --> 00:11:14.130Terry Wildemann: seeking missile.8200:11:14.190 --> 00:11:24.840Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: So I happiness seeking missile does the same thing everywhere I went I made it my intention to look for something that made me feel good or brought me joy because it was my default8300:11:24.990 --> 00:11:29.220Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: To find what I didn't like or what was negative. So I was always focused on the negative8400:11:29.490 --> 00:11:33.330Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: So I wanted to change the default from being negative to positive8500:11:33.360 --> 00:11:33.840Terry Wildemann: Positive8600:11:33.900 --> 00:11:34.530Right now.8700:11:35.940 --> 00:11:37.290Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: You know, you just raise your vibration8800:11:37.980 --> 00:11:46.410Terry Wildemann: Now some of the listeners to awaken the possibilities may not understand what you mean when you say it diminishes your light.8900:11:46.680 --> 00:12:00.330Terry Wildemann: Hmm, share a little bit more and explain to the awaken the possibilities audience. I think most of them do get it and understand but for new listeners. They may not get what you're talking about when you say your light was diminished.9000:12:00.450 --> 00:12:01.380Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: Yeah, so9100:12:02.820 --> 00:12:11.070Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: I'm a very vibrant bright person very connected to source my relationship with God is the most important relationship in my life and when9200:12:11.670 --> 00:12:20.460Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: And I'm very for a lot of people I'm considered out there, spiritually, and a lot of things that I would talk about Ascension not having to experience physical death, you know,9300:12:20.910 --> 00:12:32.010Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: Entities being channeled and reading that kind of stuff. And I was always talking about I'm someone who doesn't like to read fiction. I don't like to fill my head with anything that's not true or uplifting.9400:12:32.550 --> 00:12:39.510Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: And so I I was always reading spiritual books and she would always get pissed that I wouldn't read anything else. And I was always just talking about9500:12:39.900 --> 00:12:49.740Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: Spiritual stuff because that's just my focus. That's that was my thing. And I didn't want to lose her because I was codependent and I had separation anxiety from like losing my brother and stuff.9600:12:50.190 --> 00:13:03.540Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: But I didn't want to lose her so I just shut my light down to be what she wanted me to be. And then I just overtime. I got more depressed. I got miserable, and then I wanted to take my life because I just kept dimming my life for her.9700:13:03.630 --> 00:13:12.030Terry Wildemann: And that's a, that's a big deal. So I want, I want to just summarize here, shutting down someone's light is being9800:13:13.200 --> 00:13:17.250Terry Wildemann: What other people want you to be not who you actually are.9900:13:18.300 --> 00:13:29.250Terry Wildemann: And when we can't be who we actually ARE ALL the symptoms that you're talking about are what evolved from that, you know, I can appreciate what you're talking about.10000:13:29.790 --> 00:13:38.400Terry Wildemann: To share very quick story I under leadership center from 2001 to 2009 and I had various people working at the center and10100:13:39.390 --> 00:13:59.460Terry Wildemann: It was really a it was my center I put my heart. You know, it was my second home it I put my you know everything I had into it and I will never forget that one of the practitioners came to me and said, my client is coming and she can't handle your energy. I need to ask you to leave.10200:14:01.890 --> 00:14:04.320Terry Wildemann: And that was from my own center.10300:14:05.070 --> 00:14:05.310Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: And10400:14:05.490 --> 00:14:23.370Terry Wildemann: I walked into my office shaping shaking and unfortunately as strong as I am I allow that to affect me for many years and I dimmed my light.10500:14:24.030 --> 00:14:46.920Terry Wildemann: Right, because I do have big energy I you know I have always had a big energy. And what I realized was it constricted my voice and I couldn't really be who I wanted to be. And the bottom line was that counselor should have held her client accountable to that.10600:14:48.420 --> 00:14:50.880Terry Wildemann: I, in retrospect,10700:14:51.960 --> 00:14:54.180Terry Wildemann: As a coach of so stunned.10800:14:55.320 --> 00:15:01.380Terry Wildemann: It would have been wise for me to have said, that's your client problem and that's your problem. This is my center.10900:15:03.690 --> 00:15:12.660Terry Wildemann: But at that moment in time it. I was so thrilled by that I didn't do that and allowed it. And I'm going to say I allowed it.11000:15:13.230 --> 00:15:22.020Terry Wildemann: To affect me for a very long time. So I appreciate everything that you're talking about in dimming your light and it can be. And we, as parents, and as teachers.11100:15:22.800 --> 00:15:33.060Terry Wildemann: It really is important for us. And I don't want to say the word meat because meat is the lack when you say I need this, I need you know when we use that word mean it's like, but when we say11200:15:34.290 --> 00:15:46.020Terry Wildemann: When we watch our words and elevate people instead of diminish them. I mean, can you imagine telling somebody you've, you've got to leave because this person is intimidated by you.11300:15:46.110 --> 00:15:46.530And11400:15:47.820 --> 00:15:57.750Terry Wildemann: Am I, oh my gosh. So, gosh, do I understand exactly what it is that you're talking about. And as parents we need to be very cautious of the words that we use the phrases that we use.11500:15:58.110 --> 00:16:16.380Terry Wildemann: And what we say that diminishes our children, our spouses and the people who are who walk our, our path. So thank you for sharing that message. Thank you for allowing me to share my story because that's when I don't think I've shared ever awaken the possibilities. So that's11600:16:18.390 --> 00:16:33.570Terry Wildemann: That's really, really cool. So I know that you have a really big event coming up. Can you share, please, with the making the possibilities audience what this event is all about and the special people that you're going to have involved with this event.11700:16:33.780 --> 00:16:40.410Mel - De-Clutter Expert & Coach: Yes, I am super excited.

Water: EZ (Exclusion Zone), Memory and the Key to Life with Dr. Gerald Pollack

Dr. Craig Davies presents Achieve DEPTH Radio with Dr. Gerald Pollack This is an incredible podcast (the last 40 mins are amazing!) with one of the giants in the field of water. Quick note, when you here “Easy water” it is actually “EZ” water which stands for Exclusion Zone water. Here are a few of the incredible topics we cover: 1) Scientists can’t find memory or where memory is stored in the brain. Our bodies are 99% water by molecular count. Dr. Pollack and colleagues have shown strong evidence that water holds memory. Have we been looking for memory in the wrong place all along? 2) Can we transfer information over space and time and create the building blocks of life (DNA) … wait a minute, are we talking about the insights into time travel here? 3) If we are 99% water how come I don’t bleed out water when I’m cut or shot? 4) Are ALL the biology textbooks that teach about the sodium potassium pump and concentration gradient inside the cell wrong?! 5) At least we all know that ATP is the energy molecule in our bodies, right? Wait, that's probably wrong too?! 6) Water in living systems is a structured liquid crystal called EZ or Exclusion Zone water 7) Does water form a battery in our bodies? 8) We all know about ice, water and vapor but what do we know about the other phase, the 4th phase? 9) What happens to the body when different frequencies or wavelengths are sent though it? How does it store and use information and memory? 10) What has happened to those who have researched water in the past and made discoveries that didn't fit the current understanding? 11) Dr. Gilbert Ling, one of the pioneers in water research 12) How do saunas, infrared light and sunlight change the water in our bodies 13) Do EMFs and 5G affect our bodies, the structuring of water in our bodies and can this make us more susceptible to viruses? We go over many fascinating topics including, how water is structured in living systems and how this structuring enables the intriguing powers of water. Does water store memory? How does water enable life? This is one of the most information dense podcasts I have ever done. I am super grateful for the time Dr. Pollack spent with me and I hope you enjoy! ***Sound quality is little tough due to Zoom call but forge through it, its worth it! His most recent book The 4th Phase of Water and his previous book Cells, Gels and the Engines of Life are available everywhere including Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/dp/0962689548/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_U_u-vUEbRDJCPKZ https://www.amazon.com/dp/0962689521/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_U_ybwUEbM42STN Structured water (EZ or Exclusion Zone water): Crystal Water • 
Dr. Pollack, by molecule, we're close to 99% water in the body but for some reason, whenever I've been injured or my skin has been cut I've never bled water. Actually, I've never seen water leak from anywhere in my body. Can you start by explaining why this would be if we have so much water in our body to begin with?

A conversation with Mike Kuhn and Gunner Bergey about Pennsylvania Gravel and the Unpaved and Ironcross events. Upaved Websiste Unpaved Instagram Ironcross Website Ironcross Instagram Thesis Website Thesis Instagram   TECH CORNER sponsored by THESIS Thanks, Craig. In recent years, 1x drivetrains have taken over the mountain biking world. Today I’m going to argue why 1x should also be the default for most gravel riders. 1. With no front shifting, there’s less to go wrong, and less skill needed to dial things right. 2. With 1x, the user interface is vastly simplified. There’s no possibility of rubbing or cross-chaining, and you can just focus on the terrain ahead. 3. 1x drivetrains are cheaper to buy and generally cheaper to maintain. 4. In the case of some mechanical front shifters, you can modify them to activate a dropper post. This is actually super slick because it puts your dropper post at your fingertips at all times, whether you’re on the hoods or in the drops. Now there are two primary objections that I hear. First is range. This one’s actually a non-issue. You can get the same or greater range these days, with consistent jumps between gears as well. The second thing that often comes up is gear spacing. However, on dirt, the terrain is generally changing so frequently that you’re never at the same cadence for very long. Additionally, many riders, especially those of shorter stature, are running cranks that are too long for their inseam. Having a crank length that’s proportional to your inseam will allow you to spin at a wider range of cadences, which would in turn cancel out much of the perceived benefit of tight jumps. So that’s why, for most gravel riders, I recommend a 1x drivetrain. I’d love to get your feedback on this topic. In the meantime, back to Craig and this week’s guest. FULL EPISODE: Automated Transcript (please excuse the typos) Mike, Welcome to the show. Okay. Thanks for having me. It's great to be here. Yeah. I'm excited to talk about unpaved, but before we dig in, how did you get into event organizing and what attracted you to being a gravel cyclist? Uh, I, I know we don't have a whole lot of time so we'll try to keep it brief, but um, but many years ago and in Lewisburg where we based on pay from a, I went to school and I got involved in collegiate cycling at the time and we, we put on a couple of events and I put on my, my very first, uh, event production involvement was, was there, um, we did, we did road race weekend, we did a mountain bike event at Arby Winter State Park. And that over the years has blossomed into other things eventually. Uh, I was, I was part of that crew that brought an event called iron cross together, which, uh, is now 15 plus years in two years. Sort of a mixed, um, mixed surface type ride. Uh, and then the Transylvanian mountain bike epic was one that I did for almost a decade. And through those experiences in some bike racing experience too, we got to know the folks in Lewisburg and the tourism office there, the, um, Susquehanna river valley and, uh, have built a really wonderful relationship. That's why John Paved this point. For those of our listeners who don't know exactly the region you're talking about, can you describe where it is in the state of Pennsylvania? Yeah, it's pretty, it's pretty central in Pennsylvania. So, um, you're, you know, a couple of hours from Philadelphia. You're a couple of hours from Pittsburgh and north of both, both of them, um, and, and pretty central in the state. It's into what we call the ridges and valleys, uh, portion of Pennsylvania at Lewisburg itself. That's sits on the Susko Hannah River, which is one of the, uh, made perhaps the main, um, you know, uh, body of water that flows into the Chesapeake Bay. So it's a pretty big river. And then, uh, we, uh, we ride west from there. We ride West from there into, uh, towards state college, Pennsylvania. I'm at Penn State University and through the ridges and valleys of Pennsylvania. So what's your [inaudible] this is the second year of unpaved in the Susko Ohana Valley. Sounds like you've done a ton of event organizing in the mountain bike space and earlier in the road space. What drew you to this opportunity around creating a gravel event? So the gravel, I know the gravel things. So first off being in that area in college, you know, I was exploring some of these roads. Um, even back then I think that even even before we had sort of the specialized equipment that we do today though, the gravel in Pennsylvania is really welcoming to a wide range of bicycles. And so, uh, even getting out there on some, some road bikes as, as possible, um, from just south of there and Pennsylvania and have, um, and had that experience too. And then, you know, really iron cross I think was sort of the first, um, venture into this world. Uh, iron cross is a hundred kilometers. It's mostly gravel. We mix it a little bit. We didn't purposely mix in as much pavement and a little bit of single track and to that event so that we can, uh, we, we really try to make it hard to figure out exactly how to set up your bike. I mean that's really the purpose is like what, what is the, you know, how do you, how do you figure this thing out? But then within that, also as, as gravel grew, we, we started something that we called the a great gravel gathering, which was just a weekend, kind of in the same area in a little town called the Ohio. Um, that it, that, that on paved kind of reaches on its, its exploration of the Bald Eagle state forest. And, uh, and, and that once we figured out that, that a rail trail was being built because the rail trail that we use to get from Lewisburg, our starting location out to kind of the first section in the last section of the course did not exist. Um, until, and, and I'm going to get to, you know, I'm going to get the exact timeframe wrong, but I don't want to say until maybe eight years ago or so. And once we figured out that that connection was there that we could get into the volleyball state forest and have sort of this gravel connection, um, from Lewisburg out there, that's when we really, you know, went back to our friends at Susquehanna river valley and said, hey, this is gravel stuff is looking pretty cool. Um, that's probably about six years ago that we did that. And let's, let's start exploring this. What's it gonna take? And have worked through that process over a couple of years with and [inaudible] and, uh, which is our department of Conservation and natural resources in Pennsylvania. And now working with, uh, with those two entities in a whole lot of others to, to kind of bring the city together. Yeah, it's great when you can get those agencies involved because they can help open spaces that might not have otherwise been opened and really help show the athletes and the community how special those open spaces are. It's, um, you know, Pennsylvania has thousands and thousands of miles of trails and, um, kind of millions of acres of property between, you know, between the state portion and something else we call the state game lands and the gravel roads. It stretched through all of this stuff. And once you get to, I mean gravels everywhere in Pa and then especially once you get to kind of to the Louisburg area and endorse in the state, I mean, you could ride for days if not weeks, um, and on gravel. So it's really, it's pretty spectacular. First state that's as old as we are and as developed as we are, we also have this really wonderful way to escape into the back country. Yeah. Geographically speaking, as I mentioned when we were offline, Pennsylvania is so well located amongst a whole bunch of states. I, I gotta imagine you draw athletes from all over the place wanting to sample the trails you're talking about. Yeah, we just, um, W I mentioned Transylvania, you know, we, we were drawing folks from around the world to continuing to as a, as an a just kind of been reborn this year, uh, under a new director and continuing to draw writers from around the world to that event. And, uh, it's, you know, the, the trails here are technical and, and rocky and challenging in a different way than what most people are used to. And then, like I said, the gravel, just amazing how many miles of Babel roads exist. Um, w what we typically refer to in the northern tier of the state, but even, even coming down through the central part, and, uh, you can just, you can just find it everywhere. Um, it's, uh, it is geographically really well located in the u s and has some great, you know, between Philadelphia and Pittsburgh, couple of pretty big airports. Harrisburg offers another, you know, travel option in, it's about an hour or 15,000 of the venue. Another good place to travel in and out of. Uh, and certainly from, you know, from a connect connectivity by a interstates man, there's all sorts of stuff. 80, 81, 76, um, which depends on what you turned by all of them. All right. Pretty close to where we are. So it's pretty easy to drive fly, uh, access land rovers there if you know, you feel like paddle and then you can probably make that work too. But yeah. Good spot to be for sure. Absolutely. So speaking to you from the west coast and just sort of having an understanding of sort of the number of athletes we have here in northern California, in southern California over the last few years, have you been doing iron cross and last year with unpaved? How is the scene on the east coast? Is it growing as quickly as we see it in the West? Yeah, good question. I have not had the pleasure of making it a trip out to your negative woods, but eh, I mean I, if it's not, if it's not growing as fast, um, holy macro must you guys be blown up and you know, and say at an insane rate. Cause it's, it's picking up really, really quickly over here. I mean, we've gone from zero to 1,002 years at on and we have, you know, our friends putting on events like keystone gravel, just selling out, you know, immediately a little lack of Waco Hondo, uh, sells out immediately. Those are, you know, relatively big events. Of course. Yeah. North of us. There's some, some great stuff happening, um, in the New England states like the Vermont overland, you know, ted King has his event coming on. Um, it's big, right? It's big and it seems like it's getting bigger. Yeah. Well that's exciting to get that report from the east guest. I didn't doubt it. There's certainly a lot of effort and a lot of great events that have been going and are cropping up. When I look at the unpaved website, and I'll certainly put this in the, in the show notes so people can get to it, it's pretty easy to be attracted to the trails when I'm an athlete thinking about coming or signed, signed up already, what do I need to think about from an equipment perspective? Yeah, good question. I feel like, you know, I end up feeling like that so personal, so much of the time, it's so much, it depends on the experience that you've, you know, that you have, that you bring with your equipment I suppose. But I'm going to think a general rule of thumb is you for the most part. Now I'm going to, there's a little caveat in here because on the really long day on the one 20, on our longest distance, we throw a wet long well draft people along. They'll draft a is, is it very sort of chunkier type experience. It's not a, it's not Pennsylvania single track, but digging in pretty decent size, embedded rocks on a, on a downhill grade. And uh, and that's kind of its own thing. And if you're headed out there, you really want to protect yourself and protect your, you know, your equipment and they lessen the chance of flats or you might, you know, a little bigger tire might be a good choice for you. But you know, the vast majority of this course, the gravel is, um, unless we happen to hit a time when decent art has just graded one of their roads and kind of kicked it up a little bit and turned it up a man really well packed, really well maintained. And I've done, I've done large portions of the course on, you know, on, on 28. Now I don't recommend that. That's not the most enjoyable way to do it, but it can be done. Um, so maybe, maybe that, does that help you figure it out? It does. And when, when you talk about Pennsylvania fat tires, what, what kind of with are you talking about for that? Yeah. People who are experienced 40 ish really want to feel it. You know, if you're 40, 45, he really, he really want, like, if you're really like, mm, that's pretty, you know, I'm maybe really out here for the cruise and enjoy it. Just want to be, just want to be safe and happy or whatnot. You know, throwing something a little wider on there is not a, is not a bad idea. If you're taking on the one 20, I don't think I would say. I would say if you're not doing the one 20, there's a little section that gets pretty Chunky, um, early on in the course. But you know, you can really, I think most people are probably going to be pretty comfortable on that 40 45 sort of choice. Yeah. Yeah. It was. I recently had Alison Tetrick on the podcast and we were sort of laughing because she tends towards, in my mind what's a narrower attire. I told her I routinely run fifty's here in Marin County and she sort of laughed and she laughed at me and said, well actually I think that's stuff that you ride down in Marin county's actually mountain biking, which is probably true. Right. So that is fun. I mean that's why and how that's all changed. Yeah. I don't, I, you know, despite having this podcast, I don't like to geek out or agonize too much over equipment choices. I am very much at, you know, ride what you got and there's going to be advantages and disadvantages. Certainly when that the group is, is hauling butt through some of this, the uh, the more paved sections, having an hour or tire and lightweight setups going to be great. But as you said long into the day, that little bit extra comfort, you really need to balance that. If you, you know, are you out there really to, to kind of win and go for it? Are you just out there to kind of have a smile on your face all day long? Yeah, right. The last, right. You protect yourself a little bit, a little little, you pay a little penalty for, for carrying a little extra weight, but you don't have to stop, you know, you don't have to stop you on problems. There's, there's joy in that too, right? Like it just makes a day that much more fun potentially. So. Yup. Yeah, exactly. So you mentioned there's multiple distances for the event this year. There are, and I'll tell you what man, we are, we are so excited and so grateful to say that we're essentially, we have, we have literally one spot laughed and our three longest distances. So we do a one 20, a 90 and a 55 as of this morning. There is one spot last, um, in across the distances and it's in the 55 90 category. We kind of combine those for the field by met. So we do have a, we do have a uh, a little shorter category. It's kind of a taste of gravel. It's a lot of rail trail, a little bit of pavement. It does, you know, it hits the rest of the rail brewing company, which is, which is pretty cool out there. And Muslim various one of our aid stations. And uh, that one's about a 30 mile, a little less than that, about 27 I guess this year. Um, yeah, I saw that on your site and actually I was really excited to see that cause I think it's so important if you've got the terrain that you can make into a very enjoyable beginner experience. It's so important for the sport because obviously you're not going to sign up for a 121 miles with some steep technical terrain if you're a road rider that's never written off road. So I appreciate the efforts of inviting, you know, all categories to kind of join the event. Yeah. And it's, you know, for us to, uh, again get this wonderful experience up there and let us Berg w with school and, and we've got these great partners, not just the, uh, since Wayne at river valley, but the Miller center as well as our start finish location downtown Lewisburg is rolling out the, you know, red carpets for riders with, with stuff going on all weekend and they're really leading the effort on that, which is really cool. And we want to, we really want to encourage the, the local community, Lewisburg, Williamsport, even Harrisburg is not that far. We would encourage that community to come out and try this and be part of this weekend. And you know, and, and, right. I mean, every, you get a taste of this, you get a taste of this fun. The people that are involved and then you're like, I just want to do more of this. And you know, hopefully we over time encourage them to try the longer distances as well. So that's definitely part of what we're thinking too. Yeah, absolutely. I mean, you see, you see the events that have been around eight, 10, even longer number of years. And you've got kids who started their watching their parents who are all of a sudden now able to toe the line, which is, I mean obviously what the sport and what cycling needs. Absolutely. 100%. So when we look at the longer event, when I'm done with it, when I'm done with my one 21 miles, what are three sections that you think we're going to be talking about at the end of the day? Okay. Longwell draft, which we talked about, you go down long. Well, you're like, okay, I've had enough of that, but it's a good part of the courts, uh, and, and long, well, sort of that, that extra 30 mile loop is, is that meant that takes the 92, the one 20, uh, Dave, my coconspirator in this whole thing, day prior now calls out the difference in, um, it, you know, you feel that there's a lot of climate in Longmont wrapped in there. So, so long while that is, is, is a piece of that, I mean, there's, uh, Pine Creek, Raj, and we do roll out of town and it's relatively flat, a couple of rollers, then you hit, um, John's mountain road and John's mountain is, uh, the first climb of the day and it's one of the bigger clients of the day. I think that often sticks out in people's minds. There's a wonderful vista just over the top of it. Um, kind of have to, you know, heads up to, to catch it. But man, what a, what a wonderful spot for pictures and, you know, taking an idea if you can spare a second. But then after that, it is just this wonderful slight downhill grade for 10, 12 miles. And, um, something that we don't see a lot of in Pennsylvania actually. And that is probably my favorite part of the course. I mean, you can just grow and roll and roll and Rovell uh, on this beautiful gravel section of the course. And I really love that one. Um, and then we have some rail trail in there and then that doesn't sound very exciting, but man is that beautiful along Pans Creek. He goes through a tunnel as you come out of Pope Patti State Park. Uh, and, uh, and to me that's one of the other kind of unique features and highlights of the course as well. And then when we're all done, are you getting together for sort of a festival type atmosphere? Yeah, I'll tell you what we are, we're throwing a party all weekend long. You know, I say we, I mean, all those partners, it's, it's far more than just, uh, just unpaved that's doing that. So starting even earlier, as early as Friday evening, uh, a little fun. Graveled we're going to get on garage raveled unraveled on graveled uh, oh on Friday night with some fun town's Saturdays Expo. We've got a bunch of wonderful partners coming in salsa as they are, stands as their, uh, I think Floyd's and Ergon are coming in and it looks like, you know, a Jira will be there and a number of others. Vargo which is, uh, which, which some of our folks know, maybe not everybody would bargo make some really cool equipment for bike packing in there, right in town. They're actually based out of Lewisburg, which is a really cool connection. They're going to be, you know, part of this, we got all this stuff and then there's a bunch of local artisans. There's a wooly where and festival, which certainly appeals to me, but it's gonna appeal to my kids even more. Um, that's going on as part of this, uh, the wheeler center is working with us on daycare opportunities. So, you know, both parents want to come. Uh, maybe you can't, maybe there's not enough daycare for the full one 20, probably they may be for Alison Tetrick or somebody that fast. Maybe you can, you can blow through quickly enough, but from a mere mortals, you know, if you're going out for the 30, uh, one of the parents wants to do that and, and have the kids kind of engage in some super fun activities. That number center's got family friendly stuff going on. Uh, and then Monday even we've, you know, we have some rides happening conjunction with like at Buycott, Lewisburg, sort of local advocacy, um, folks there for, for cycling and pedestrian activities in those groups. So [inaudible] entire full weekend of fun, family friendliness, you know, Clyde peelings rep, they'll land reptile land is just up the road. That's a pretty fun stop for families while you're in town. So just tons and tons of stuff to do even in, you know, kind of small town Pennsylvania. But man, is it a beautiful spot on the Bucknell University and uh, and some good things that weekend. That's awesome, Mike. I appreciate the overview. Certainly from all accounts. Last year's event was amazing, so I'm sure this one will be even better. I hope the weather holds for you guys and you get a big turnout. It sounds like there's only maybe one slot left for some lucky, lucky person online who hears this. Go over and grab it. Say I'm Mike. Thanks again for the time. Hey, thank you very much for having us. Really appreciate it. I hope you can hope you can make it and, and you know, not this year decent. Our, we're hoping to work with us and we get this thing bigger and better. Next year or two, we're going to keep, keep a foot on the gas with it too. Right on Mike, I appreciate that. Cheers. PART 2: Gunner. I want to welcome you to this all Pennsylvania edition of the gravel ride podcast. It's great to be here. Craig, thanks for having me today. I'm really excited to help fill you in and get the listeners up to date on what's going on with iron cross. Yeah, I'm stoked to continue the conversation about Pennsylvania riding cars. As I was mentioning to Mike, I've done a bit as a mountain biker when I was living in the mid Atlantic. I love the terrain and I can see how it totally lends itself to gravel riding. I'm excited to get into a little bit to the, into the history of iron cross, but let's start off by just learning a little bit about you. How do you come to the sport of cycling? So I grew up, my dad got me into mountain biking when I was pretty young. Uh, I raced mountain bikes as a junior year and I eventually transitioned to focus on cyclocross. Um, I've raced with the national team over in Belgium. I went down to these McCray where I raced, uh, in college and was part of some teams that did pretty well national championships and uh, and just sort of grew from racing my bike to I got Lyme disease and it sort of took me off the racing side of things and that kind of opened up the door to help put on races. And I've been really enjoying being on the other side of the core state. Interesting. In Pennsylvania, is there a big cyclocross contingent? Okay. Yeah, the mid Atlantic has a pretty awesome series a, the mid Atlantic cross, they put on some really great events. They host a bunch GCI events. It was really helpful growing up as a junior to have such high quality events. Uh, you know, so close to where I grew up. And you mentioned Mike was there one of the original founders of iron cross. What was the vision? What time of year did it sit in and what was the intention to contribute to the cyclocross racing community there? So Mike definitely pushed that cross as a, when he started that race. This'll be at 17, 2019. We'll be at 17th year. So it was quite awhile ago when Mike got that off the ground and he was sort of doing something that no one else, no one else was offering. There weren't a whole sampling of gravel races back then. There were some minor cross claims to be the first one in North America and it was based off of, I believe it's called triple cross, that triple cross or triple peaks that was over in the UK. And that was sort of where he got his inspiration there and it was an old race where they would actually ride to the pills and then hike their bikes to the top and come back down and ride to the next step. So that was sort of what Mike used as says, um, idea and inspiration behind it. And it sort of grew from there. Um, it's interesting because it's, oftentimes it's with falling this year. It's on October 20th, 2019. And uh, it is in the middle of cross season and a lot of serious cross raisers have a hard time working into their schedule. You know, they're trading for short hour long efforts. So, you know, depending on how quickly you're going up, three to five hour effort on the bike doesn't really suit that sort of training. But people come out and they make adjustments to their schedule to make it because it's a, it's a pretty unique event. Yeah. It's interesting that you mentioned the three peak cyclocross race in the UK. My cousin Tim had competed in it, shout out cousin Tim Tebow Dalton. Um, and I remember seeing some of the pictures and I remember talking to them about how friggen hard that race was and seeing him struggle over those peaks carrying his cyclocross bike on his shoulder, you know, going back a decade ago or so. So it's a pretty interesting model and I think like three peaks, it's clear that iron cross is put on the calendar as a big adventure, which is, I think it's really cool and exciting for someone who maybe specializes in cyclocross to kind of go out of their comfort zone and tackle a longer event and tackle the adventurous route that you guys have laid out for people. Yeah, absolutely. I mean it's great. It's sort of pools, iron cross pools in a racers from road mountain and cross backgrounds. We've had people do it on road bikes with big tires. I wouldn't recommend it, but it is possible. Uh, and then you've got serious mountain bikers that are in the middle of their off season and then you've got serious cross racers in the middle of their, you know, racing season and they all sort of come out and they have a pretty good battle. It can neat to see a different groups that maybe don't get to race with each other the rest of the year. Um, sort of meet each other and, and meet people that maybe they do training rides with but don't, don't attend races but together cause they focus on different disciplines. Yeah. And I imagine it's fascinating as you look at the different parts of the course where they favor one bike or another, how you see athletes in that specific discipline close gaps or create gaps depending on their skill and their equipment. Oh, absolutely. Absolutely. Um, you've got, you know, sometimes there'll be road racers that know that their technical skills are lacking and are a lot for a mountain bike because they think that they can overcome, uh, the larger tire with and the drag on the road, uh, to be a most, maybe go faster on some of the offer sections and then they'll be the opposite people that are used to going downhill and used to navy riding, drop par bikes on some rough terrain that are worried about having to fitness to get up or some of the hills. So if I'm lining up at the start line, can you walk the listener through what an iron cross races, like, what's, what's the terrain that they're tackling, how does it unfold? And we starting out with more technical terrain. Are we starting out on fire roads? Just give us a brief overview of the exciting sections of the course. Yeah, absolutely. We can totally walk through the course here. Uh, so we start right outside of Williamsport in south Williamsport, uh, from the South Williamsport senior center. We go a neutral rollout through south Williamsport. And one of the cool parts about iron cross that we've been able to pull together in the past few years is it's neutral. And we have a replica cannon on the side of the hill and people always say, well, how will we know when the river starts? And I tell them that, well, the race starts from the cannon goes off and not everyone thinks I'm serious. And we have a full cannon that gets loaded with a, you know, gun powder in it. It makes a loud, loud blast. There is no confusion on when the race starts. So as soon as soon as the candidate goes off, they roll through the Williamsport. What authority property? It's kind of a nice intro, some rougher double tracks, smoother double track, and that sort of just gets the blood flowing and let everyone know what they're going to be in for for the rest of the day. Um, after that, they've got a road climb and he kind of works through the tie dot and state forest. Uh, just some absolutely beautiful views. Uh, some great descents, great climbs. Um, then the, the main thing that everyone fits, stands out in everyone's mind is the hike a bike. So we've, we've got a pretty, pretty unique section of trail where it just goes up this, this rocky in bank men and, uh, there's photos of people and there's often, often times you've got three points of contact with the ground, both your feet in one of your hands because it is so steep that, uh, when you leave for not that far, your, your face is right off the rocks and everyone's carrying their bikes. Some people put it on their shoulders, some people put it on their back, some people roll it up next to them. Um, and then about halfway up that climb is the unofficial aid station called Larry's tavern. And, uh, we often have someone there from SBDC and they're in the past, they've grilled bacon, they'd grilled a deer meat, venison. They've had all sorts of stuff on the grill there. They've had a, sometimes they have some, some special drinks. They're hanging out. And last year that the, uh, the winner of the overall winner of the race actually stopped. And, uh, took a Ciroc shot and kept going on afterwards. So it's a pretty cool spot to hang out. The Syrup shop might not be that bad of an idea. I get a little sugar and yet at the end of that climb. Yeah, absolutely. And after that you've got some more dre gravel and other descent and another climb and then the course finishes with a mountain top climb. Uh, and it's a pretty brutal, it's about two miles long, really nice double track. And uh, up at the top we normally have hot coffee cookies. And, uh, then it said, then you just take your time and roll back to your car, the race at the top of the hill. You've got a nice three, two mile descent back into town. And then, uh, that's sort of it. And then what do they expect after the race back in town? Do you have some events going on afterwards for people to enjoy themselves? Absolutely. We've partnered pretty closely with, uh, um, the brick yard restaurant and the stone house restaurant there. There are two restaurants that, uh, are operating under the same management open company. So laughter in everyone's ready to bag. They get a token for free beer and a burger or pizza for after the, um, after the events and they can come down and we do award ceremony in the courtyard and there's lots of lots of hanging out and people talking about the event and whether or not they had a good time and uh, there's been some, some really cool cool nights and it ends up people hanging out for a long time and really enjoying, enjoying what sport has to offer. Awesome. I was looking at the GPX file for the, for the race. So it looks like it's, it's just shy of 60 miles and about 6,200 feet of climbing, is that right? Yup. [inaudible] and looking at the elevation, there's no break in this bad boy. It goes up and down and up and down. And I could see that, um, that last finishing climb is as big as anything else earlier in the day. Yeah. The, the last line definitely. I mean when you're done, I don't care if you're the first finish or the last minister, you are happy to be done when you come across the line. The last time's pretty tough. It's a good one. Um, and it, it's when you get to the top and have that hot coffee and cookies, everyone's usually pretty excited to be wrapped up for the day. I bet. I bet. Are All these trails open to riders other times of the year or is this any private property? Uh, most of the courses open all the year. The glands. What, what our authority, uh, grants the event access. You're allowed to go there and ride. Um, and we, and uh, there's just, there's some rules there saw posted on a side but, but you are able to ride all the course all year round. Awesome. Well I encourage everybody to go to the iron cross website because there's a video of that cannon going off. There's a course profile across the board and a lot of information about how cool this event is and about the history. Like when we were talking to Mike earlier, I think this region is just so cool for people to visit for riding. And I can see how gravel riding is just exploding in the mid Atlantic area for, for events like this, just sort of setting the stage for what that community can can do. We'd love to have the hour, um, that there's a really, really great gravel community going on in PA. Uh, and then I think that you'd have fun at anything that's going on in the state. There's some really great stuff and we'd love to have, well I appreciate you taking the mantle of continuing the history of the Iron Cross race and continuing to have it evolve as new opportunities arise. It's amazing when I think multiple people in the community dedicate themselves to putting on events and thinking about this cause it really helps. It really helps people visiting the area to know where to ride and find some great loops. And it's just amazing to have these things on the calendar year after year after year. So gunner, thanks for joining us. I know you've got a busy weekend racing ahead of you, so thanks for the time and we look forward to another great iron cross later this year. Thanks for having me, Craig.

In this episode of Beneath the Subsurface we turn back time with Daniel Orange, our ONE Partner for multibeam technology and seafloor mapping - and incredible storyteller - and Duncan Bate, our Director of Project Development in the Gulf of Mexico and Geosciences. Dan takes Duncan and Erica on an expansive journey through time to meet a special variety of archea that dwell in the impossible oases surrounding sea bottom vents. We also explore the relatively recent discoveries in geoscience leading to seafloor mapping and how seep hunting offshore can enrich the exploration process today. TABLE OF CONTENTS00:00 - Intro03:35 - What is a seep?09:06 - The impossible oasis11:45 - Chemotrophic life24:15 - Finding seeps26:51 - The invention of multibeam technology30:11 - Seep hunting with multibeam32:48 - Seismic vs. multibeam34:43 - Acquiring multibeam surveys44:32 - The importance of navigation46:20 - Water column anomalies49:12 - Seeps sampling and exploration56:23 - Multibeam targets59:12 - Multibeam strategy1:03:11 - Reservoir content1:06:44 - A piece of the puzzle1:10:21 - ConclusionEXPLORE MORE FROM THE EPISODELearn more about TGS in the Gulf of MexicoOtos MultibeamEPISODE TRANSCRIPTErica Conedera:00:00:12Hello and welcome to Beneath the Subsurface a podcast that explores the intersection of Geoscience and technology. From the Software Development Department here at TGS. I'm your host, Erica Conedera. For our fourth episode, we'll welcome a very special guest speaker who offers a uniquely broad perspective on the topic of sea floor mapping. We'll learn about the technology of multibeam surveys, why underwater oil seeps are the basis of life as we know it and how the answer to the age old question of which came first, the chicken or the egg is the Sun. I'm here today with Duncan Bate, our director of projects for the US and Gulf of Mexico. Do you want to go ahead and introduce yourself Duncan?Duncan Bate:00:00:56Sure, yeah, thanks. I basically look after the development of all new projects for TGS in the, in the Gulf of Mexico. I'm here today because a few years ago we worked on a multi beam seep hunting project in the Gulf of Mexico. So I can share some of my experiences and - having worked on that project.Erica:00:01:15Awesome. And then we have our special guest star, Dan Orange. He is a geologist and geophysicist with Oro Negro exploration. Hi Dan.Dan Orange:00:01:24Good morning.Erica:00:01:25Would you like to introduce yourself briefly for us?Dan:00:01:28Sure. Let's see, I grew up in New England, Texas, so I went to junior high school, just a few miles from where we're recording this. But I did go to MIT where I got my bachelor's and master's degree in geology, then went out to UC Santa Cruz to do my PhD and my PhD had field work both onshore and offshore and involved seeps. So we'll come back to that. And also theoretical work as well. I had a short gig at Stanford and taught at Cal State Monterey Bay and spent five years at the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute. Again, pursuing seeps. I left MBARI and started working with the oil patch in 1997 and it was early days in the oil industry pushing off the shelf and heading toward deep water and seeps were both a bug and a feature. So we started applying seep science to the oil industry and have been doing that for oh, now 21-22 years.Dan:00:02:32The entire time that I was at Embargin, and working with the oil patch. And in fact, ongoing, I do research for the US Navy through the Office of Naval Research. It started out involving seeps and canyon formation and it's evolved into multibeam seafloor mapping and acoustics. And that continues. So in the oil patch I was with AOA geophysics, we formed a company AGO to commercialize controlled source EM sold that to Schlumberger. And then we formed an oil company, Black Gold Energy, that would use seeps as a way to, go into oil exploration. And we sold that to NYKO, since leaving Black Gold with Oro Negro. We've been teaming with TGS since 2014 so now going on five years mapping the sea floor, I think we just passed one and a quarter million square kilometers, mapping with TGS as we mapped the sea floor and sample seeps, pretty much around the world for exploration.Erica:00:03:35Awesome. So let's begin our discussion today with what is a seep, if you can elucidate that for us.Dan:00:03:41So a seep is just what it sounds like. It's, it's a place on the earth's surface where something leaks out from beneath. And in our case it's oil and gas. Now seeps have been around since the dawn of humanity. The seeps are referenced in the Bible and in multiple locations seeps were used by the ancient Phoenicians to do repairs on ships they use as medicines and such. And in oil exploration seeps have been used to figure out where to look for oil since the beginning of the oil age. In fact that, you know, there seeps in, in Pennsylvania near Titusville where colonel Drake drilled his first well, where Exxon, had a group of, of people that they call the rover boys that went around the world after World War II looking for places on the Earth's surface that had big structures and oil seeps.Dan:00:04:39Because when you have a seep at the sea floor with or on the Earth's surface with oil and gas, you know that you had organic matter that's been cooked the right amount and it's formed hydrocarbons and it's migrating and all those things are important to findings, you know, economic quantities of oil and gas. So seeps have been used on land since the beginning of oil and gas exploration. But it wasn't until the 1990s that seeps began to affect how we explore offshore. So that's seeps go back to since the dawn of humanity, they were used in oil exploration from the earliest days, the 1870's and 80's onward. But they've been used offshore now since the mid 1990s. So that's, that's kind of, that seeps in context.Duncan:00:05:31But it's actually the, I, the way I like to think about it, it's the bit missing from the, "What is Geology 101" that every, everyone in the oil and gas industry has to know. They always show a source rock and a migration to a trap and a seal. But that actually misses part of the story. Almost every basin in the world has leakage from that trap, either, either directly from the source rock or from the trap. It either fills to the spill point or it just misses the trap. Those hydrocarbons typically make their way to the surface at some point-Dan:00:06:04at some point and somewhere. The trick is finding them.Duncan:00:06:08Yeah, that's the seep. And thus what we're interested in finding.Erica:00:06:12As Jed Clampett from the Beverly hillbillies discovered.Erica:00:06:15Exactly.Dan:00:06:15I was going to include that!Erica:00:06:19Yes.Dan:00:06:19Jed was out hunting for some food and up from the ground came a bubbling crude. That's it.Erica:00:06:27Oil that is.Dan:00:06:29Black gold.Erica:00:06:29Texas tea.Dan:00:06:30That's right. So that's that seep science. So today what we're going to do is we're going to talk about seep communities offshore because what I hope to be able to, you know, kind of convince you of is if oil and gas leak out of the sea floor, a seep community can form. Okay. Then we're going to talk about this thing called multibeam, which is a technique for mapping the sea floor because where you get a seep community, it affects the acoustic properties of the sea floor. And if we change the acoustic properties of sea floor or the shape of the sea floor with this mapping tool, we can identify a potential seep community and then we can go sample that.Dan:00:07:14And if we can sample it, we can analyze the geochemistry and the geochemistry will tell us whether or not we had oil or gas or both. And we can use it in all sorts of other ways. But that's where we're going to go to today. So that's kind of, that's kind of a map of our discussion today. Okay. So as Duncan said, most of the world, he Duncan talked about how in- if we have, an oil basin or gas basin with charge, there's going to be some leakage somewhere. And so the trick is to find that, okay. And so, we could, we could look at any basin in the world and we can look at where wells have been drilled and we can, we can look at where seeps leak out of the surface naturally. And there's a correlation, like for example, LA is a prolific hydrocarbon basin. Okay. And it has Labrea tar pits, one of the most charismatic seeps on earth cause you got saber tooth tigers bubbling outDuncan:00:08:18It's literally a tourist attraction.Dan:00:08:20Right there on Wilshire Boulevard. Okay. And it's a hundred meters long by 50 meters wide. So a hundred yards long, 50 yards wide. And it, that is an oil seep on, on the earth surface in LA okay.Duncan:00:08:32Now, it's important to mention that they're not all as big as that.Dan:00:08:34No, no. Sometimes they're smaller. It could just literally be a patch of oil staining in the sand.Erica:00:08:41Really, that's little.Duncan:00:08:41Oh yeah. I mean, or just an area where there's a cliff face with something draining out of it or it, you know, it could be really, really small, which is easy to find onshore. You know, you send the rover boys out there like you mentioned, and you know, geologists working on the ground, they're going to find these things eventually. But the challenge, which we've been working on with, with the guys from One for the last few years, and now is finding these things offshore.Dan:00:09:06So let's, let's turn the clock back to 1977. Alvin, a submarine, a submersible with three people in it went down on a Mid-ocean Ridge near the Galapagos Islands. And what they found, they were geologists going down to map where the oceanic crust is created. But what they found was this crazy community, this incredible, oasis of life with tube worms and these giant columns with what looked like black smoke spewing into the, into the ocean. And so what they found are what we now call black smokers or hot vents, and what was so shocking is the bottom of the ocean is it's a desert. There's no light, there's very little oxygen, there's not a lot of primary food energy. So what was this incredible, oasis of life doing thousands of meters down on, near the Galapagos Island? Well, it turns out that the base of the food chain for those hot vents are sulfide rich fluids, which come spewing out of the earth and they fuel a chemically based, community that thrives there and is an oasis as there because there's so much energy concentrated in those hot sulfide rich fluids that it can support these chemically based life forms.Dan:00:10:34So that's 1977 in 1985 in the same summer, chemically based life forms, but based on ambient temperature, water, not hot water were found in the Gulf of Mexico and off the coast of Oregon that same summer, 1985 in the Gulf of Mexico, the base of the food chain, what was fueling this chemical energy was hydrocarbons, oil and gas, and off the coast of Oregon, what was fueling it was hydrogen sulfide. So this is 1985, the year I graduated college. And so I started graduate school in 1986 and part of my research was working with the group that was trying to figure out the plumbing that was bringing these chemically rich fluids up to the earth's surface that were feeding this brand new community of life. You know, what we now call cold seeps. So, we, you know, depending on what you had for breakfast today, you know, eggs or pancakes or had your coffee, all the energy that we've got coursing through our veins right now is based upon photosynthesis.Dan:00:11:45We're either eating plants that got their energy from sunlight or we're eating eggs that came from chickens that eat the plants that can, where the came from, sunlight. Everything in our world up here is based upon photosynthesis. So, but the seep communities, the hot vents and the black smokers and the cold seeps, the base of the food pyramid is chemical energy. So they're called chemosynthetic communities or chemoautotrophic because the bacteria get their trophic energy, the energy that they need to live from chemicals. And so the bacteria utilize the chemicals and organisms have evolved to host these bacteria inside their bodies. And the bacteria metabolize the chemical energy to produce the enzymes that these larger organisms need to live. So these larger organisms can include clams, tube worms, the actual bacteria themselves. But, so the kind of how does this work is- let's get, because if we understand how seeps work and we know that seeps can be based upon oil and gas seepage, then you'll understand why we're using these seeps to go out and impact, oil and gas exploration.Dan:00:13:09So the- at the bottom of the ocean, we have a little bit of oxygen, but as we go down into the sediments, below the surface, we, we consume all that oxygen and we get to what's called the redox boundary to where we go from sulfate above it to hydrogen sulfide below it. And so below this redox boundary, we can have methane, we can have oil, but above that redox boundary, the methane will oxidize and the oil will be biodegraded and eaten by critters and whatnot. Now, living at that boundary, are bacteria who metabolize these compounds, and that's where they get the energy they need to live. These bac- Okay, now kind of turned the clock even farther back before the earth had an oxygen atmosphere, the only way that organisms got energy to live was from chemicals. Okay? So before we had algae and we created this oxygen atmosphere that we breathe billions of years ago, the organisms that lived on earth were chemosynthetic.Dan:00:14:13So these bacteria survive today and they live everywhere where we cross this redox boundary. Okay? So there they're actually archaea, which are some of the most primitive forms of bacteria, and I'm not a biologist, so I can't tell you how many billions of years ago they formed, but they're ancient and they're living down there.Erica:00:14:33So they haven't changed since then. They're basically the same?Dan:00:14:36Nope.Erica:00:14:36Wow.Dan:00:14:36They figured out a way to get energy to survive. It works.Erica:00:14:40Why change it?Dan:00:14:41If you're an Archea, right? So they're living down there at that redox boundary. Now, if we have seepage-seepage, is the flow of liquids. You actually lift that redox boundary. And if you have enough seepage, you can lift that boundary right to the sediment water interface. If you step in a pond and you smell that, sulfide, that rotten egg smell, your foot has gone through the redox boundary.Dan:00:15:08Okay? And you've disturbed some archaea down there and they'll get nudged aside. They'll go find someplace else. Okay? So with seepage, we lift the redox boundary to the sediment water interface and, and the bacteria are there and they're ready to utilize the reduced fluids as their source of energy. And so you can see them, we have pictures. You can do an internet search and say, you know, bacteria chemosynthetic bacteria and images and look at and look at photos of them. They it, they look like, okay, when you put the Guacamole in the back of the fridge and you forget it for three weeks and you open it up, that's what they look like. It's that fuzzy. It's this fuzzy mat of bacteria. And those are the bacteria. They're out there. They're metabolizing these fluids. Okay. Now in the process of metabolizing these fluids, they produce the bacteria, produce enzymes like ATP.Dan:00:16:01And I wish my partner John Decker, was here because he would correct me. I think it's adinase triphosphate and it's an enzyme that your body produces and sends out to basically transmit chemical energy. Okay. Now at some point in geologic time, and I'll, I'll actually put a number on this in a second. The larger fauna like clams and tube worms, evolve to take advantage of the fact that the bacteria are producing energy. And so they then evolve to use the bacteria within themselves to create the energy that they need to live. Okay? So, what happens is these seep fauna produce larva, the larva go into, you know, kind of a dormant stage and they're flowing around the ocean. And if they sense a seep, okay. They settle down and they start to grow and as, and then they, they, they, the bacteria become part of them.Dan:00:16:56They're the, the clams. You open a clam in the bacteria live in the gills. Okay. And so they'd grow and, and so these clams and tube worms start to grow and they form a community. Okay. So that a clam, what a clam does these clams, they stick their foot into the, into the sediment and they absorb the reduced fluids into their circulation system. They bring that, that circulating fluid to their gills where the bacteria then metabolize these reduced fluids and send the enzymes out to the tissues of the clam so it can grow. So this clam does not filter feed like every other clam on the planet. The tube worms that host these bacteria in them don't filter feed. So the base of the food chain is chemosynthetic. But the megafauna themselves, don't get their energy directly from methane or hydrogen sulfide. They get their energy from the bacteria, which in the bacteria, you know, the bacteria happy, they'll live anywhere.Dan:00:17:59But sitting here in a clam, they get the reduced fluids they need to live and they grow. Now it's what's cool for us as, as seep hunters is different species have evolved to kind of reflect different types of fluids. So if you know a little bit about seep biology, when you pick up like a batheum Modiolus mussel, you go, Huh? There could be oil here. Okay. Because that particular mussel is found in association with, with oil seeps. Okay. So that we won't go too far down that path, but there are different organisms. The important thing is that these communities, form again an oasis of life, a high concentration of life where we have a seep. Now, the oldest seep community that I'm aware of is Devonian. So that's between 420 and 360 million years. It's found in the high atlas mountains of Morocco.Dan:00:18:58And that seep community, a fossil seep community includes the same types of clams in tube worms that we find today. Okay. But they're also found with authigenic carbonate. Okay. Which is like limestone. And so, and that limestone in cases, this fossil seep community and has preserved it for hundreds of millions of years. So where does limestone come from? So remember we've got methane, CH4 in our, in some of our seep fluids. Well, if that's oxidized by bacteria, cause they're going to get energy from the methane they produced bicarbonate, which is HCO3 as a negative charge on it. And that bicarbonate, if it sees calcium, they like each other. And so they'll form calcium carbonate, limestone. And since sea water is everywhere saturated with calcium, if we have a natural gas seep, the bacteria will oxidize in natural gas and the bicarbonate will grab the calcium to form this cement.Dan:00:20:04Now deep enough in the ocean, it actually is acidic enough that that cement will start to dissolve. So we just have this, we have a factory of of bacteria. It might be dissolving some places, but most of the places we look, the carbonate doesn't dissolve. So we've got clams, tube worms, we've got the limestone authigenic carbonate, and if the pressure and temperature are in the right field, that methane can also form this really cool substance called gas hydrate and gas hydrate is a clathrate the, it's a combination of water and methane where the water forms an ice-like cage and the methane sits in that cage. And so you can light this on fire in your hand and the gas will burn. Nice yellow flame will go up from your hand and the cage will melt. The ice melts. So you get cold water on your hand with flames going up. It, it's cool stuff.Erica:00:21:03Did you bring one of these to show us today?Dan:00:21:06The pressure and temperature in this room are not, methane's not an equilibrium. You need hot, you need high pressure, moderately high pressure and you need very low temperatures. So, if we had-Duncan:00:21:20Neither are common in Houston, (Laughter)Dan:00:21:22No, and we wouldn't be terribly comfortable if that was what it was like here in this room. But the, the important thing for us now as we think about seep science and, and seep hunting is that this, this limestone cement, the authigenic carbonate, the gas hydrate, the shells of a clam, okay. Are All harder. Okay? Harder, I will knock on the table. They're harder than mud. So the sea floor, most of the most of the world's ocean is gray-green mud and ooze from all sorts of sediment and diatoms and plankton raining down onto the ocean floor. So most of the world's oceans is kind of just muddy sandy some places, but sediment, it's where you get these seep communities that now we've, we've formed a spot that some that's harder and rougher than the area around it. And that's our target when we, deploy technologies to go out and, and look at seeps.Dan:00:22:26So, so hot smokers, hot vents were discovered in 1977. Cold seeps were discovered in 1985 and were found to be associated, in the Gulf of Mexico with oil and gas seepage. That's 1985. Those were discovered with human beings in a sub in submersibles. Later, we deployed robotic submersibles to go look at seeps, ROV's and even later we developed tools to go sample seeps without needing to have eyes on the bottom and we'll come and talk and we'll come back and talk about that later.Dan:00:22:57But for kind of recap, a seep is a place where something is leaking out of the earth surface. When we talk about seeps, we're talking about offshore seepage of oil and gas that supports this profusion of chemically-based life forms as well as these precipitants, the authigenic carbonate limestone and gas hydrate. And the important thing is they change the acoustic properties of the sea floor.Duncan:00:23:28Yeah. Then the key thing is that you've gone from having, seeps onshore, which are relatively easy to walk up to and see, but hard to find, to seeps offshore, which are impossible to walk up to or very difficult. You need a submersible to do it. But because of this, chemosynthetic communities that build up around it and our knowledge of that and now gives us something to look for geophysically. So we can apply some geophysics, which we'll get on to talk about next in terms of the multibeam, to actually hunt for these things in a very cost effective way and a very fast manner. So we can cover, as Dan said, right at the start, hundreds of thousands of square kilometers, even over a million now, in a cost effective, timely manner and identify these seeps from the sea surface.Dan:00:24:15Now fishermen, know where seeps are because all of this limestone provides places for fish to leave their larva where they might live, they call them refugia. It's a, it's a place where, you know, lots of little fish and where you have lots of little fish, you have lots of big fish. And since we're also increasing this primary productivity, you get, you get profusions of fish around seep communities. So we've found authigenic carbonate in the front yards of fishermen in areas where that we've gone to study seeps. And if you chip a little bit off it, you can go and analyze it in the lab or if you can get somebody who fishes for a living to tell you their spots. And that involves convincing them that you're not going to steal their spots and you're not gonna tell everybody where their spots are. But if you go into a frontier area, if you can get somebody who fishes for a living to talk to you, you might have some ideas of where to go look for them.Dan:00:25:14So it kind of, one other point that I wanted to make here about seeps is, remember I talked about how seep organism creates kind of a larva, which is dormant and it's kind of flowing through the world's ocean, looking for a seep community, doing some back of the envelope calculations. If, if a larva can survive for about a month. Okay. And you have a one knot current that larva can move about 1300 kilometers in a month, which is about the length of the island of Java. And it might be about the length of the state of California. So if you think now, so if you think about that, then all you need is a seep community somewhere to be sending out larva. Most of which of course never gonna survive. And then if we get a seep somewhere else, the odds are that there's going to be a larva bouncing along the sea floor that is going to see that and start growing.Dan:00:26:08So for us as explorationists as the, the important thing is if there's a seep, there's a pretty good chance that, that a seep community will start to form, if the seepage lasts long enough, it will form a community depending, you know, might be large, might be medium size, but it changes the acoustic properties of the sea floor. Okay, so that, remember we're going to talk about seeps what they, what, what's a seep and that is how it's related to hydrocarbon seepage out of the or natural gas oil, you know, reduced fluids. What we were going to talk about, and now we're going to talk about how offshore we use this technology called multibeam to go and find them. Okay.Dan:00:26:51So back in, back in the Cold War, the air force came up with a tool to map the former Soviet Union called synthetic aperture radar. And when the navy saw the air forces maps, they said, we want a map of the sea floor. And at the time, you know, if you remember your World War II movies, the submarine sends out a Ping, somebody listening on, their, on their headphones and and the ping comes back and the amount of time that it took for the ping to go out and the ping come back is how deep the water is. If you know the speed of sound in water. But that's, that's just one point directly beneath you, that's not good enough to get a detailed map of the sea floor. So, driven by these cold war needs, the navy contracted a company called general instruments to develop a tool to map the sea floor and they develop what's called SASS, the sonar array sounding system, which we now call multibeam.Dan:00:27:49In the 1960s, it was unveiled to the world during a set of, submersible dives to the mid Ocean Ridge, I believe in 1975 as part of the famous project. And the geoscientist looked at that map and it was a contour map of the mid ocean region. They said, holy smokes, what's that? Where'd that come from? And the navy said, well, we kind of developed a new technology and it was first commercialized in 1977 the same year hot smokers were discovered on the world's oceans. And it has been continuously developed since then. And in about the 1990s, it got resolute enough for, for us to take this, this kind of seeps, seep hunting science and take it offshore. So until then, 1980s, we were deploying submersibles. We were going down and looking at them. We had very crude maps. We had some side scan shows, a little bit about, the acoustic properties of the sea floor.Dan:00:28:46But it wasn't until the mid 1990s that we realized that with these tools, these sea floor mapping tools that had acoustic, analyzing techniques that we could identify areas that were harder and rougher and had a different shape, that allowed us to start, instead of just driving around and, and, we're finding one by, by luck or chance actually saying, Huh, there's a, there's an interesting acoustic signature over there. Let's go take a look at it. And deploying submersibles and ROVs and realizing that yes, we had tools that could, be used to, to map the sea floor and identify seeps and driven by their own interests. The Navy, the US navy was very interested in these and, was, was a early, early funder of seep science and they've continued with it as well as academic institutions around the world that got very interested in seep communities.Dan:00:29:45And in fact, NASA, NASA is really interested in seep communities because they're chemically based life forms in what are basically extreme environments. And so if NASA wants to figure out what life is going to look like on a different planet, or a different moon on it, or surrounding a different planet that doesn't have an oxygen atmosphere, here's a, a laboratory on earth that, that they can use. So NASA has been funding seep science as well.Dan:00:30:11So multibeam what is it and how does it apply to, to, to hunting seeps. So multibeam, which is this technology that was developed by and funded by the navy in the 1960s and commercialized in the 70s uses two acoustic arrays of transducers. one array is mounted parallel to the length of a ship. And when you fire off all those transducers, it sends out a ping. And the longer the array is, the narrower that beam is. That's how antennas work. So that that long array sends out a ping, which is narrow along track and a shape, kind of like a saucer. So if you can imagine two dinner plates put together, that's what this, ping of energy looks like. And that's what we call the transmit beam. So then if you listen to the sea floor with an array that's perpendicular to the transmitter ray, we are now listening to an area that's, that's narrow across track. Okay. And it's long elongate a long track. So we've got this narrow transmit beam in one direction that's, that's now perpendicular to the ship. And we've got a narrow receive beam that's parallel to the ship and where those two intersect is what we call a beam. And so with, with lots of different, transducers mounted, perpendicular to the ship, we can listen from all the way out to the port about 65 degrees down below the ship and all the way over to starboard, again, about 65 degrees. And we have lots of beams.Dan:00:31:51So right now the system that we're using, on our project has 455 beams across track. So every time we send out a ping, we ensonify the sea floor on, on these 455 beams. And as we go along, we send out another ping and another ping. And we're basically, we're painting the sea floor. It's, it's like mowing the lawn with a big lawn mower or using a Zamboni to drive around an ice rink. You can just think of it as as a ship goes along. We are ensonifying and listening to a wide patch of sea floor and we typically map, about a five kilometer, about a three mile, a wide swath, and we send out a ping every six or 10 seconds. Depends how, you know, depends on the water depth. And so we're able to map 1000 or 2000 square kilometers a day with this technique. This multibeam technique.Duncan:00:32:48Since a lot of our podcast listeners might be familiar with seismic is that's probably the biggest percentage of the, the geophysical industry. This is not too different. It's an acoustic based technique. I guess the main difference is are we live working in a different, frequency bandwidth. And also that we have both the receiver and the transmitter both mounted on the same boat. So we're not dealing with a streamer out the back of a boat. we have transmitter and receiver are both whole mounted. But after that it's all pretty similar to seismic. We go backwards and forwards, either in 2D lines or in a, in a 3D grid and we build up a picture. Now because of the frequencies we're working with, we don't penetrate very deep into the sea floor. but as, as we mentioned, we're interested in seeing those seep communities on the sea floor. So that's why we this, this is the perfect technology for, for that application.Erica:00:33:40Oh, can you talk a little bit about the post-processing that's involved with multibeam?Dan:00:33:44Well, let me- Erica, Great question. Let me, come back to that later cause I want to pay, I want to pick up on what Duncan talked about in and add one very important wrinkle. So first of all, absolutely correct, the frequencies are different. In seismic, we're down in the hertz to tens of Hertz and in Multibeam we're in the tens of kilohertz and in very shallow water, maybe even over higher than a hundred kilohertz. In seismic, we have air guns that send that radiate out energy. And we, we designed the arrays so that we get most of the energy in the direction that we're looking with multi beam. We have a narrow, remember it's one degree wide in here. If you got kids, see if anybody still has a protractor anymore, grab a protractor and look at how wide one degree is. It's very narrow.Duncan:00:34:39There's probably an iPhone app for that. (Laughter) see what one used to look like.Dan:00:34:43But with, with seismic, the air guns sends out energy and we listened to the reflected energy out on the streamer back behind the ship or on a node somewhere else. It's reflected energy. With multibeam, the energy goes out and it interacts with the sea floor and the shallow subsurface. Most of it gets reflected away and we don't, we don't, hear that it, but some of it actually comes back in the same direction that the sound went out and we call that backscatter. So backscatter energy comes back to you and it's that backscatter that, can increase when we have hard and rough material either on the sea floor or buried below the sea floor. So the way that we process it is since we know the time of length, the time of path on how long it took to get out, hit the sea floor and come back, or you can correct for path lengths, energy radiates outward and spherical patterns. So we correct for spherical spreading. we know the angle that it hit the sea floor, so we correct for angle of ensonification. And then the next and most important things are where was the ship, when the pulse went out? And where is the ship when the pulse comes back, including what's the orientation of the ship? So we need to know the location, the position of the ship in X, Y, and Z to centimeters. And we need to know the orientation of the ship to tenths of a degree or better on both the transmit and the receive. But the key thing is, if we know that path length in the spherical spreading and we correct for all of that and we get a response that's much greater than we expected, we get higher backscatter energy and it's, it's those clams and tube worms authigenic carbonate gas hydrate that can increase the hardness and the roughness of the sea floor that kicked back the backscatter energy.Dan:00:36:46Okay. Now what happens if the oil and gas, or the reduced fluids if they shut off? Well, I'm sorry to say for the clams and the tube worms that they will eventually die. The bacteria will still live at that redox boundary as it settles back below the sediment. And then when we pile some sediment on top of that dead seep community, it's still there. The shells are there, the carbonate's still there. So with the, with multibeam that the frequencies, we use 12 and 30 kilohertz penetrate between two, three 10 meters or so into the sediment. So if you shut off the seepage and bury that seep community, they're still there. And if we can sample that below that redox boundary at that location, chances are we're going to get a oil or gas in, in our sample. And in fact, we encounter live seep communities very, very, very, very rarely, you know, kind of one in a thousand.Dan:00:37:50But, we, we encounter seep fauna down in our sample cores, which we'll talk about later, much more frequently. And, and we, we find hydrocarbons, we are very successful at finding hydrocarbons. And the key thing is we're using seep science to go look in, in basins or extend outward from basins in areas where there may be no known oil or gas production. And that's why the seeps are useful. So multibeam unlike a seismic, we got to collect the data, then we got it and you to do all sorts of processing and it takes a while to, to crank the computers and whatnot. Multibeam we can, we can look at it as it comes in and we can see the backscatter strength. We can see what the swath that it's mapping every ping, every six seconds. And it takes about, it takes less than a day to process a days worth of multibeam.Dan:00:38:47So when our ships are out there working every morning, when we get the daily report from the ship, we see another thousand or 2000 square kilometers of data that were mapped just the previous day. So it's for, those who can't wait, it's really satisfying. But for those of us who are trying to accelerate projects, it's great because when the data come off the ship, they're already processed. We can start picking targets and we can be out there, you know, in weeks sampling. So that's so multibeam it's, it's bathymetry, it's backscatter, but we're also imaging the water column. So if there's, a gas plume, coming out of the sea floor, naturally we can see that gas plume and, so that we can see the water column. We can see the sea floor or the bathymetry, and the backscatter. Erica, you asked, you know, about the processing and I talked about how we have to know the position and the orientation, of the ship, that means that we have to survey in using a laser theodolight.Dan:00:39:54We have to survey in every component of the system on the ship to, you know, fractions of a millimeter. And we drive the surveyors nuts because we are, we are more demanding than the, the BMW plant in South Carolina. And they point that out to us every time. Yes, we're more demanding. But if they have a problem with, with a robot in the BMW plant, they can go out and survey it again, once we put this ship in the water, I can't go survey the array that's now welded to the bottom of the ship. It's there. And so that's why we make them do three replicate surveys and do loop ties and convince us that we've got incredibly accurate and precise system. So that's when we survey the ship. We use, well we go back and we go and we check their math and we make sure all the numbers are entered into the system correctly.Dan:00:40:46We, measure the water column every day so that we have the best velocity data that we use to correct the, that position. We measure the salinity in the water column because it affects how energy is absorbed. It's called the absorption coefficient. We measure the acoustic properties of the ship. So we understand maybe we need to turn off the starboard side pump in order to get better multibeam data. And we evaluate every component of the ship. Something. Sometimes they'll have, you know, the, the waste unit was, was mounted onto the, onto the deck of the ship and nobody thought about putting a rubber bushing between that unit and the hall to isolate the sound. And it just so happens it's at 12 kilohertz. So it swamps your acoustic energy or degrades our data quality because it's all about data quality so that we can find these small, interesting high backscatter targets. We polish the hull. We send divers down every eight weeks or 12 weeks or 16 weeks because you get biofouling you get, you get these barnacles growing in a barnacle in between your acoustic array in the sea floor is going to affect the data. So we send divers down to go scrape the hull and scraped the prop.Duncan:00:42:05So it's probably worth mentioning that this is the same type of multibeam or multibeam data is the same data that is used in other parts of the oil and gas industry as well. So I mean, any pipeline that's ever been laid in the last few decades has had a multibeam survey before it. Any bit of marine infrastructure that an oil and gas company wants to put in the Gulf of Mexico. Certainly you have to have a multibeam survey ahead of time. what's different here is that we're, we're trying to cover big areas and we're trying to get a very specific resolution. So maybe it's worth talking a bit about that. Dan what we're actually trying to achieve in terms of the resolution to actually find seeps.Dan:00:42:42You got it. So we, we can, we can control the resolution because we can control how wide a swath we go and how fast we go. So, if you're really interested in, if you want to do a site survey and you want to get incredibly detailed data of a three kilometer by three kilometer square, you could deploy an autonomous underwater vehicle or an ROV and get very, very, very resolute, like smaller than half a meter of bin size. for what we do, where our goal is exploration, the trade off is between, do I want more resolute data or do I want more data and it that that is a tradeoff and it's something that we struggle with. And we think that the sweet spot is mapping that five kilometers swath and three miles wide, swath at about oh eight to 10 knots. So let's say about 16 kilometers an hour.Dan:00:43:40That gets us a thousand to 2000 square kilometers a day. And by acquiring data in that manner, we get a 15 meter bathymetric bin independent of water depth and our backscatter since we subsample that bathymetric bin for the backscatter, we can get a five meter backscatter pixel. So now if I have four, if I have four adjacent pixels, you know, shaped like a square, that's a 10 meter by 10 meter spot on the sea floor, it's slightly larger than this room. We could, you could see that now you might need a couple of more to be larger than that. So to have a target actually stand out, and that's about how accurate our sampling is with the core barrel. So, the long answer to your question is about a 15 meter bathymetric bin and a five meter backscatter pixel is what we're currently doing for our exploration work.Dan:00:44:32Now we pay attention to what's going on in the navigation and the positioning world because it affects our data quality. So the higher the quality of, of our navigation, the higher the quality of our data on the sea floor. So about a decade ago, the world's airlines asked if they could fly their airplanes closer together and the FAA responded and said, not unless you improve GPS and so sponsored by the world's airlines. They set up ground stations all in, in the, in the most heavily traveled parts of the world that improve the GPS signal by having an independent orbital corrections. What that means is for us working off shore, we take advantage of it. It's called wide area augmentation. And, using this system, which is now it's a, it's add on for a GPS receiver, we're able to get six centimeter accuracy of a ship that's out there in the ocean that surveying.Dan:00:45:27So that's six centimeters. What's that? About two and a half inches. And for those of us who grew up with low ran and very, you know, where you were lucky if you knew where you were to within, you know, a quarter of a mile. it's, it's just astonishing to me that this box can produce data of that quality, but that flows through to the quality of the data that we get on our surveys, which flows through to our ability to find targets. So I think, I told you about sub sampling, the bathymetry for backscatter and I've told, I told you about the water column and we've talked about the resolution. I think we've, we've pretty much hit what multibeam is. It's, it's a real time near real time acquisition, high frequency narrow beam. We image the sea floor and the shallow subsurface. Okay and we use that to find anomalous backscatter targets.Duncan:00:46:20Well, let's talk about the water column a little bit more done because I know we've published some pictures and images from our surveys. Showing the water column anomalies. The backscatter data, in the water column itself can actually help us find seeps. The right mixture of oil and gas coming out of this, an active seep and migrating up through the water column can actually be picked up on these multibeam data also. So that's, a real direct hit that you've got to see and that it's actually still producing oil today,Dan:00:46:53Right, so when, when gas and oil leak out of the sea floor, the gas bubble begins to expand as it comes up, just like a would in a, in a carbonated beverage because there's less pressure. So that gap, that bubble is expanding. If there's oil present, the oil coats the outside of the bubble and actually protects it from dissolving into the water column. And so the presence of gas with a little bit of oil leaking out of the sea floor creates these bubbles that, are big enough to see with these 12 and 30 kilohertz systems. And so when we see a plume coming out of the sea floor, that's natural, a seepage of gas, possibly with a little bit of oil and it provides a great target for us to go and hit. Now those seeps are flowing into the water column and the water column has currents and the currents aren't the same from one day to the next and one week to the next.Dan:00:47:47So if we image a seep a couple of different times, one day it will be flowing in one direction and the next time we see it flowing in a different direction. The area in common between the two is pointing us toward the origin point on the sea floor. And that's what we're going to target. And if you, if you hunt around, look for NOAA studies of, of the US Gulf of Mexico, over Mississippi Canyon near where the deep water horizon, went down because there are, the, NOAA has published, images of the gas seeps in that area where there are natural oil and gas seeps leaking, leaking other, the sea floor. And these natural seeps occur all over the world. Okay? And they're bringing oil and gas into the water column. But remember, nature has basically provided, the cleanup tool, which is the bacteria. So where oil and gas settle onto the sea floor, there are bacteria that will consume it. You don't want a lot of it in one place, cause then then you've got, you know, a real environmental disaster. But natural oil and gas seepage goes hand in hand with natural seep consuming organisms that metabolize these fluids. So a multi beam seeps backscatter okay. That I think we've, we've talked about what the target looks like. Let's talk about how we go in and sample it.Duncan:00:49:12Yeah, no, I think that's the real key thing. Particularly here in the Gulf of Mexico. I mean we talked at the start about how I'm using seeps can tell you whether a basin has hydrocarbons in it or not. Clearly we're decades past the point of knowing whether there's oil and gas in the Gulf of Mexico. So even in the deep water gulf of Mexico, especially here in the US side, we know that there's oil and gas, so that information is long gone. We don't, we don't need an update on that anymore. What we need to know is information about the type of oil, the age of the oil, the deep positional environment that the oil is deposited in. And if we can actually get a sample from these seeps, then that's the sort of information that modern geochemistry can start to pull out for us.Dan:00:49:57we've sat in the same meetings where the, the potential client companies have said, why are you, why are you gonna map the deepest part of the Gulf of Mexico? There's no oil out there. And lo and behold, we found anomalous backscatter targets on a diapirs, which are areas, mounds out in the deepest parts of the Gulf of Mexico. And lo and behold, if you, if you look at the data, know that that statement was incorrect. There is oil and gas out there in other parts of the world. We've had companies say, oh, this part's all oil and this part's gas. Well, how do you know that? Well, because we've drilled for oil out here and we don't think there's any oil. Once you get out there and you don't know, you don't know what you don't know until you go map it and sample it and then you come back, you put the data on their desk and they go, huh, hey, we were wrong man. I guess there's oil out there. And, and in other parts of the world where you know, we've done all our exploration close to land or in shallow water, we go out into the deepest part and nobody's ever drilled a well out there. So, you use the seep science to go to basically fill that in.Dan:00:51:09So in order to make money exploring for oil, you had to have organic matter. Originally it had to be, it had to be buried and cooked. Okay. So you needed temperature and pressure. You need time takes time to do that, then it needs to migrate. Okay. With the exception of unconventionals, we're not gonna talk about unconventional today with the exception of unconventionals, the hydrocarbons have to migrate, so they're concentrated so that you can go drill them and recover them. And they need to be in a reservoir.Dan:00:51:41And it has to be sealed. And so when we find a seep and all of that goes into what we talk about in oil exploration as the risk equation, like what's the probability of success? If you don't know whether you have a migration, you have maximum uncertainty and that flows through into your, into your risk. Well, if we find a seep, remember we've proven that there was organic matter. We've proven that it was buried and cooked for the right amount of time to create oil and gas and that it's migrated. We can't tell you anything about reservoir or seal or timing, but we can, we can materially impact the risk equation by finding a seep. Okay. So right before you drill a well, wouldn't you like to know whether or not there's oil or gas in the neighborhood? Cause a well can be a can be $100 million risk.Dan:00:52:34Okay. Usually you wouldn't, wouldn't you like to know? So remember when we started looking at seeps, 1977 for the hot vents 85 for the cold vents, we used human beings in a submersible. Later we shifted to using robotic submersibles where a human being sit on a ship in a control room, operate the ROV with joysticks, and you watch the videos come through. Well, those are great, but they're really expensive and you can't look at much sea floor on any given day because you're limited to how fast you can move across the sea floor and how much you can look at. So if we surveyed 2000 square kilometers in a day, we want to be able to evaluate that in less than 20 years. We want to be able to evaluate that in, you know, in a similar length of time, a day or two. So what we've done is we've shifted toward using what we, what's called a piston core, which, which is a six meter long, 20 foot long tube with about a thousand kilos on a 2,000 pounds.Dan:00:53:37And we lower it through the sea floor, operating it with a winch from a ship. And by putting a navigation beacon on that core, we can track it through the water column in real time. And if we have this high backscatter target on the sea floor, we can lower it to the water column. Once we're about fit and we're within 50 meters, 150 feet of the sea floor, we can see whether we're on target and then we let it go. When the pist- when the, it has a trigger weight on it, you can look this up, how to, how do piston cores work, that the core, lets go and it free falls that last little bit and it penetrates the sea floor. You haul it back to the surface. Now if it had gas hydrate in it, if it has oil in it, if it has gas in it, you can see it right away. when you pull the clear liner out of the core, and there it is, you know, whether or not you've got success, for most cores, there's no visual evidence of hydrocarbons that we sample that core tube, three different samples. One of them, we take a sample into what we call a gas can and seal that. And then we put a couple of hockey puck size chunks of sediment into Ziploc bags and everything goes into the freezer. And you ship that back, from the next port call. And about a month later you get a spreadsheet in your email, that says, oh, guess what you found methane, ethane, propane, butane, and Pentane. And look at this, you've got enough fluorescents that this is a guaranteed oil hit. So, again, you think about the time we map a couple thousand square kilometers a day.Dan:00:55:18We mapped for a month, we'll look the data for a month. We go out and core for a couple of weeks and a month later the Geochemistry starts flowing in. So real quick, multibeam as we've, as we've discussed as a way to get a detailed map of the sea floor, both the shape of it and the hardest roughness, acoustic properties. So any company laying a fiber optic cable across the world's oceans is acquiring multibeam data. Any, municipality that's worried about how deep their ports are and whether there's enough space for the ships to come in, is acquiring multibeam data. The corps of engineers who pays companies to dredge sand in the Mississippi River has to have a before and after multibeam a map, when MH370 went down and needed to be hunted for before they deployed the real high resolution tools. They needed a map of the sea floor and that was a part of the ocean that has never been mapped in detail before.Dan:00:56:23So most of the world's oceans have net have never been mapped in the detail that we're mapping them. We're using the tool to go hunt seeps. But there are all sorts of other uses of, of that multi beam technology. So, what are we looking for when we, when we, when we're looking for seeps, you know, what have, where have people found oil and gas leaking out of the sea floor? What does it look like? Or what are the targets? Well, if the gas burps out of the sea floor, it creates a pockmark. And those are targets, in many parts of the world, the Apennines of Italy, Azerbaijan, there are what we call mud volcanoes, where over pressured mud from deep down in the earth is kind of spewing out gently, slowly and continuously at the earth's surface. And lo and behold, it's bringing up oil and gas along with it. So mud volcanoes are known, oil and gas seeps onshore. Of course we're going to use them, offshore. Any place where we have a fault, you can create fracture permeability that might let oil and gas up. Faults can also seal, but a fault would be a good target, an anticline, a big fold that has a, can have seeps coming out of the crest of, it's similar to the seeps that were discovered early in late 18 hundreds. And in, in the USA, we can have areas where we have oil and gas leaking out of the sea floor, but it's not enough to change the shape of the sea floor. So we get high backscatter but no relief. Those, those are targets. So when we go out and we sample potential seep targets, we don't focus on only one type of target because that might only tell you one thing.Dan:00:58:04So we spread our, our targets around on different target types and we'll spread our targets around an area. Even if we, if we have more targets in one area than another area, we will spread our targets all the way around. Because the one thing that we've learned in decades of seep hunting is we're not as smart as we think we are. Nature always throws a curve ball. And you should, you should not think that you knew, know everything before you go into an area to analyze it because you might, you probably will find something that's, that startles you. And you know, as someone who's been looking at seeps since 1986, I continue to find things that we've never seen before. like our recent projects in the Gulf of Mexico, we found two target types that we've never seen before. The nearest analog on earth, on the surface is called a Pingo, which is when ice forms these really weird mountains up in the Arctic. And the one thing I can guarantee you that's not on the bottom of the world's ocean is an ice mound similar to what's forming the Arctic. But, but it had that shape. So we went and analyzed it and lo and behold, it told us something about the hydrocarbon system.Dan:00:59:12So those are all different types of target types so that the core comes back, we send it to the lab, we get first the very, what call the screening geochemistry, which is a light gases, methane through Pentane. We look at how fluorescent it is, cause that'll tell you whether or not you, you have a chance of of having a big oil hit. And we also look at what's called the chromatogram, which is a gas chromatography. And that tells us between about C15 and C36 C being the carbon length. So the, all your alkanes. And by looking at a Chromatogram, a trained professional will look that and say, oh, that's biodegraded oil. Or, oh, that's really fresh oil cause really fresh oil. All the, alkane peaks get smaller as they get bigger. So it has a very, very distinctive shape. Or they can look at it and they can tell you, you can, you can figure out the depositional environment. You can figure out whether the organic matter came from a lake, lacustrine, or maybe it's marine algal. We can say something about the age of it because flowering plants didn't evolve on earth till about the end of the age of dinosaurs. So at the end of the cretaceous, we got flowering plants. And so flowering plants create a molecule called oleanane. And so if there's no oleanane in the oil, that oil is older than cretaceous. So now we're telling something about a depositional environment.Dan:01:00:39We're saying something about the age, we can say the, the geochemist can say something about the maturity of the oil by looking at the geochemistry data. So all of this information, is now expanding what we know about what's in the subsurface and everything we know about seepage is that it is episodic in time. And it is distributed on earth's surface, not in kind of a random scattered, fashion. You get seepage above above a mud mud volcano, but for the surrounding hundred square kilometers around this mud volcano, we don't find any seep targets. Okay. So, our philosophy is that in order to find, in order to analyze the seats, we have to go find where we've got the highest probability of seepage and leakage. And that's where we target. So if you went out and just dropped a random grid over an area, you have a very, very low chance of hitting a concentrated site of seepage. And so, our hit rate, our success rate is, is high because we're using these biological and chemical indicators of seepage to help us guide where we sample. We have very precisely located sampling instruments this core with this acoustic beacon on it. And so we have, we have a very, very high success rates. And when we get hydrocarbons, we get enough hydrocarbons that we can do all of this advanced geochemistry on it.Duncan:01:02:13That's a good point Dan, even with- even without just doing a random grid of coring, piston coring has been done in the the US Gulf of Mexico for a long time now. And using seismic information, to target it. So like you say, looking for the faults and the anticlines and those type of features and very shallow anomalies on the seismic data. Even even guiding it with that information, typically a, a 5% hit rate might be expected. So you take two or 300 cores you know, you're going to get maybe 5%-10% hit rate, where you can actually look at the oils, and the geochemistry from the samples that you get. Using the multibeam, we were more like a 50 to 60% hit rate. And that's even with like Dan said, we're targeting some features where we know we're not going to find oil. so we could probably do even better than that if we, if we really focused in on finding oil. But obviously we're trying to assemble all the different types of seeps.Dan:01:03:11One of the things that we're asked and that we've heard from managers since we started working in the oil industry is what is this sea floor seep tell me about what's in my reservoir. And there's only, there have been very few, what we, what we call the holy grail studies published where a company has published the geochemistry at the reservoir level and the geochemistry on a seep that they can tie to that reservoir in the Gulf of Mexico. We collected dozens of seeps that can be tied to the same basin where there is known production. So in that Gulf of Mexico Dataset, a company that purchased that data and who had access to the reservoir oils could finally have a sufficient number of correlations that they could answer that question. What is the sea floor seep? Tell me about the reservoir. Because once you're comfortable in the Gulf of Mexico, that that seep is really telling you what's down in your reservoir.Dan:01:04:08Now you go into other parts of the world where you don't know what's in the reservoir before you drill and you find a good, a fresh seep with fresh oil right at the sea floor. Now you're confident that when you go down into the reservoir that you're going to find something, something similar. So let me talk a little bit about other things that you can do with these cores. And I'll start by kind of looking at these mud volcanoes. So this mud volcano, it had over pressured mud at depth. It came up to the surface of the earth and as it came up, it grabbed wall rock on its way up. So by analyzing a mud volcano, if we then go look at, say the microfossils, in all the class in a mud volcano, we can tell you about the age of the rocks that mud volcano came through without ever drilling a well.Dan:01:04:54So you can look at, at the, at the vitrinite reflectance, you can look at the maturity of the, of these wall rocks that are brought to you on the surface. You can look at heavy minerals. And when we go out and we do field geology, you know, you remember you're a geologist has a rock pick they and they go, the geologist goes up to the cliff and, and she or he chips a rock out and they take it back to lab and take a look at it. And that's how they tell something about what's in the outcrop. Well, it's hard to do field geology on the bottom of the ocean using a multibeam map and - acoustically guided core. We can now go and do field work on the, on the ocean floor and expand our knowledge of what's going on in a field area.Duncan:01:05:42So maybe it's worth talking a bit Dan about how we're jointly using these technologies or this group of technologies, at TGS, to put together projects. So the, I think generally the approach has been to look at, basin wide study areas. So we're not just carving off little blocks and doing, one of these, one of these projects over, over a particular block. We'll take on the whole Gulf of Mexico. So we, we broke it up into two. We looked at the Mexico side and the US side. But in total, I think it was nearly a million square kilometers that we covered and, about 1500 cores that I think we took, so we were putting these packages together in different basins all over the world, whether they're in mature basins like the Gulf of Mexico or frontier areas like places we're working in West Africa at the moment. But I think we're, we're looking to put more and more of these projects together. I think the technology applies to lots of different parts of the world. Both this side of the Atlantic and the eastern side of the Atlantic as well.Dan:01:06:44So since 2014, five years, we've mapped, we as in One and TGS have mapped, I believe over 1,250,000 square kilometers. We've acquired over 2000 cores. Oh. We also measure heat flow. We can use - is how the earth is shedding heat. And it's concentrated in some areas in, and you want to know heat flow if you're looking for oil, cause you got to know how much your organic matter has been cooked. So we've, we've collected thousands of cores, at dramatic success rates and we've used them. We've used these projects in areas of known hydrocarbon production, like the shallow water Gulf of Mexico, but we've, we've extended out into areas of completely unknown hydrocarbon production, the deep water Gulf of Mexico, the east coast of Mexico over in the Caribbean. We're looking at northwest Africa, Senegal, The Gambia, Guinea-Bissau, and the area, that's a jointly operated AGC. And we're looking at other frontier areas where we can apply this to this technology in concert with traditional tools, multichannel, seismic, gravity and magnetics to help, our clients get a better feel for the hydrocarbon prospectivity. You've got to have the seismic cause you've got to see what the subsurface looks like. But the, the multibeam which leads to seep targets, which leads ultimately to the geochemistry is what then affects the risk going forward into a basin.Duncan:01:08:20That's a good point, Dan. We don't see this as a technology that replaces seismic or gravity or magnetics or anything else, but it's another piece in the puzzle. And it's a very complimentary piece as well.Dan:01:08:31It is. And any areas you could argue that probably the best places to go look are where, your colleagues and other companies have said, oh, there's no oil there. Well, how do you know? Well, we don't think there's oil because we don't think there was a organic matter or we don't think that it was cooked enough. Well, you don't know until you go there and you find, so if you found one seep in that field area that had live oil and gas in it, you would know that that premise was incorrect. And now you have a competitive edge, you have knowledge that others don't and that can, that can affect your exploration, strategy in your portfolio. we haven't talked about cost. Multi beam is arguably one of the least expensive tools per square kilometer in the geophysical toolkit. Just because we don't need chase boats. We're not towing the streamer, we're going 10 knots. We're covering a couple of thousand square kilometers a day. So it's, it's, it's a tool that's useful in frontier exploration. It is complimentary to seismic, and it's a tool that, that you can use to guide where you want to spend money and how much money if you, if we survey a huge area and let's say half of it has no evidence of oil and gas and half of it has excellent hydrocarbon seeps, both oil and gas. I would argue that as a company you might want to spend less money on the first and more money on the second. You migh

Our most valuable asset is time. we often don’t guard it like the precious commodity it is. We give it away freely, and then say we don’t have enough time, or we’re just too busy to get the things that are most important to us done. I’m super guilty of this. I’m a total people pleaser, and I’m an optimist thinking I can really get it all done in the time I have. When I say yes to something, I’m also saying no to many other things. Things I may really enjoy better. Things I may need to do that are important for my business. Things that may deepen my relationships. Things that may be good for my body and spirit. Are the things we say yes to more important than the things we unconsciously say no to? That’s what we’re exploring today.  In today’s mantra Monday, my invitation is to take a moment to look at your week. Are ALL of the things you said yes to important – are they crucial for your personal growth, your health and wellbeing, are they important because they’re strengthening your relationships that are most important to you, are they moving the ball forward in your business? When I did this exercise, I found over 2 dozen things I was doing this week that were not important. When I looked at what I could’ve been doing (or should’ve been doing) instead, it really put things into perspective. Just yesterday, for example, I cut a podcast, but really needed to get more done off my list because I had a babysitter – that’s golden time! Instead, I chose to go to 3 different stores looking for pots for my plants. Something I did not plan on doing, but took several hours – precious hours! I washed my car, paid some bills, took out the trash, checked instagram 3 times, email 6 times, hopped on an impromptu meeting call that could have waited, and looked online for shoes for an upcoming wedding. These are not important tasks. I will get to them eventually, but yesterday I had a babysitter and need to work and do self-care. We all have a CHOICE – I made a choice to do this over that, it really made me sad – and upset! Things I missed out were: a workout, (something I have promised myself to move my body every day), I didn’t do my pelvic floor exercises (which as y’all know, this is important on so many levels for myself and my romantic relationship with Jake and I), I didn’t make dinner for myself so I ate a slice of pizza on the road and felt guilty about it after, I didn’t write my blog or finish 2 other podcasts (which was on my things to do list), I didn’t reach out to potential guests for the podcast (also on my to do list) and I didn’t get a nap (which was really needed) because I taught late last night. Basically, I spent my time elsewhere, and I gipped myself. I didn’t give myself the things that I really needed and wanted for my business, my health, my relationships and honestly, my self-worth. When I look at this through the lens of choice, it makes me sad as well as upset with myself for prioritizing my time and giving it away so easily to things that don’t matter as much as other things that are critical to my wellbeing, relationships and business. So, I reviewed my week and what and who I have said yes to. I had to do some rearranging and say no, make some cancelations, shorten up meetings and prioritize what is important. So, this week’s mantra is: If it’s not a hell yeah, then it’s a hell no. not a maybe, or a wish that you can get it all done. Bring your choices to your consciousness and understand where you are spending your time. Ask yourself what are you sacrificing when you say YES to this person or this meeting, or call, or event, or task? What are you giving up? Is this more important? We go so quickly through our day, multitasking and being busy, and then feel exhausted and wondering where the time went. Time is your most precious energy. Protect it. Guard it. Remember everything is a choice. When you say yes to one thing, you are saying no to another. So consciously take control of your power and your life by only saying yes to what lights you up, yes to the people who energize you not to the people who deplete you or timewasters, yes to the things that move the ball forward for you. Try it this week – I’ll be right alongside you, and let me know on my blog or instagram how this one thing has impacted you.

Jay Prassl: Patch Your $#!% Are ALL of Your Apps and OSes up to date? Are you sure? How can you tell? An American Dental Association study in 2008 found that if you don’t brush your teeth you COULD DIE. The ADA recommends brushing your teeth twice a day for 4 minutes each time. What the hell does that have to do with anything? Stick around… According to Ponemon, nearly half of all companies they surveyed had suffered a breach. 57% of those companies were breached due to an unpatched vulnerability. A third of those companies KNEW they were vulnerable before the breach. The average company spends 321 labor hours a week managing their vulnerability response process. How’s that compare to spending 4 minutes, twice a day brushing your teeth? Starting to feel the connection there? In 2017, WannaCry affected over 200,000 machines in 150 countries over a weekend. The attack weapon was developed using NSA tools built to exploit Windows vulnerabilities. What I told you that Microsoft had released a patch for this vulnerability over a month before WannaCry hit? Speaking of Microsoft… our good friends at TripWire offer the following tell us that, in 2015, Microsoft alone issued 2804 patches. That’s roughly 56 patches every Tuesday… and that’s JUST Windows OS & applications Noodle on those numbers a bit… In this week’s episode of InSecurity, Matt Stephenson spoke with Automox CEO Jay Prassl about the role that patching plays in every business’s cybersecurity hygiene.

DESCRIPTION       In today’s episode you will hear how to dominate your life and business and not be dominated by it. You’ll also understand how to pick the right targets, the right goals and why so many of us struggle to achieve them. Here are some of the awesome things you will hear in this episode: Find out the what the people who win BIG today think and how they act differently. Find out how what you can ALWAYS do to get yourself out of the whirlwind of the day to day. And see how Satori reveals the secret to setting the right goals. So listen here to find out how Satori coaches the best and how you can have an opportunity to apply and talk directly to Satori about creating badass results in your life and business. INTRO… We have a problem that most people don't know they have and it's causing a lot of pain for business owners.It's causing pain for leaders for individuals for moms and dads in how they raise their children. Boom! Hey what’s up my friends, welcome to a new episode of Halfass to Badass. In today’s episode you will hear me in a training I did for a live audience on New Year’s Day 2019. It’s a training I’ve done every New Year’s Day for a few years now to get people to Dominate their life and business and take command right off the bat on the first day of the year. I know this is the day when most people have a hangover or they made a bunch of promises they know they won’t keep. And I want to change that. You may have heard me say that over 50% of Americans make new year’s resolution and already by the time we hit the end of February, only about 20% are still on track. And it just keeps going down after that. Not only did I do a four hour training (this is not going to be 4 hours) I also follow up and keep them accountable and focused every week for 90 days after that. And in this years training we had some amazing results. Some created changes they haven’t accomplished in years. Some may seem easy or small but for others they are huge. The key to understand is that whatever change you’re trying to make big or small it matters, especially, if you haven’t been able to follow through in the past, right? Think about it, most of the behaviors we don’t want we’re addicted to. We either don’t know how to stop them or we think we can’t.    We had a woman from Scandinavia, an amazing entrepreneur create a new morning routine, where she got up two hours earlier (which also meant a different evening routine. She used to go to be 2 or 3 in the morning and fall asleep in front of Netflix) and she dedicated that time in the morning for self care, and she also loves to sing. Much more fulfilling to her,  instead of starting the day with emails and social media, you agree? We had a Russian Entrepreneur that blocked off 4 hours of her work day, the first 4 hours in the morning to get her most important projects done before getting distracted by other people’s demands. She also during these time started publishing by going live on Facebook everyday and delivering her message. And that, was huge for her because that was really uncomfortable and nervous, but she did. Amazing accomplishment. Another business owner started making health a priority, drinking more water, taking daily 20 minute walks and committed to making 2 new business connections every week. These are just a few of the accomplishments off the top of my mind. Anyway, follow along, take some notes, and at the end of today episode I have a special surprise, so stay with me. Let’s cut to the training session, but before we do here’s the intro. --Script-- Okay, welcome to dominate. And this is about the roadmap to your business and your life, your income... Your whole life and your business is all integrated. So I'm not going to separate them. This is all part of your, of your journey, your life journey. This is really a systematic way of taking control of how you think, how you feel, how you behave so you can achieve really what you want and what really matters to you. And this is going to help you put you in charge of your dreams, put you in charge of your goals so you can dominate your life and not be dominated by it. I know you know the word domination, been used in many different ways, but I really, I really mean this in the purest sense. If you don't take control of your thoughts, if you don't take control of your  behaviors, your habits, then someone else is going to take control over them, right? You either dominating or being dominated, right? It's just a law of life. This training, this workshop is for you to make sure that you're not leaving your dreams, your thoughts, your feelings, right? The things you want for your life, “hoping” for it to happen, not something you can look back on and say, “It” didn't happen. All right. And it's also not about beating yourself up. We all have experiences of disappointment, right? Of goals and dreams that have not been met. We all have that. And most of the time it was not even your fault, really. It wasn't. I'll tell you why in just a moment. I want to start off by saying that because we live in the world that is moving so rapidly, right? Yet it may feel like you're standing still. Like you’re not moving toward what you want. Fast enough. That makes sense. Right? We live in this world, where we're, so many of us are overwhelmed, overworked, we're spread thin and we have a million plates spinning at all times, trying to make everything important. And as a result, nothing becomes important. Nothing gets the necessary focus and attention and therefore, momentum slows down or stops, right? And that's where we stop. We beat ourselves up with judge yourself and criticize yourself. We think we should be further along than we are and all these different things that complicate things. So today I want to demystify that and I want to clarify so that there's a way for you to set your intention and your focus on the right things and it's not the right things for me is what's right for you. So the people that are winning in today's marketplace, in today's world, they there are narrowing their focus, they're not going to wide. Everyone else is going wide, and they're lacking precision. So today will also be a small introduction to my precision based growth training. The people who are dominating, and crushing it today, have more of a sniper approach. It's very, very targeted. And everyone else who are, you know, losing battles, getting killed in the marketplace, are setting fantasy goals without a clear strategy for execution. Whether that's in your personal life or whether it's your in your professional life, it doesn't really matter. It's all the same, right? Because it still requires you, it requires your thinking, requires your feelings, requires your behaviors, right? The actions, if you're proactive or reactive. It all matters, right? So if you're caught in the whirlwind, right, of the day to day, you're going to be stuck there just like everyone else. And we need to be able to remove ourselves from that and take control and dominate our own thoughts, our own feelings and behaviors in order to change things. So that's why this really matters, right? Because we have a problem most people don't know about, and I think this is critical. We have a problem most people don't know they have and it's causing a lot of pain for business owners. It's causing pain for leaders for individuals for moms and dads in how they raise their children. The problem they don't know they have is that we've been indoctrinated and trained to adopt others' values rather than our own, right? We're trying to pursue others dreams, believing that they are the right dreams, the right values. And it's kind of a “good girl”, “good boy” syndrome that is dominating our thoughts and feelings and our behaviors and therefore, our results are going to be impacted, or the lack of results are going to be impacted. Right. We've been chasing a social conditioning, a fantasy and you can see it on social media all the time, right? I was having a conversation with a guy the other day, right? We're looking at social media and we see these pictures of these, you know, beautiful homes, beautiful cars, beautiful bodies. These are like moments, snapshots. And we believe this is the life that this person lives. And we don't understand that they have turmoil, they have disappointments, upsets and all these other things. So they put this person or this, you know, this guru on a pedestal, thinking they are a certain way and that they don't have the other side. And if you believe that, this is the time to demystify it because it's not true. We have all areas of life, right? And so we need to start getting clear on that. Even though you know that intellectually you can stop and think about that because you may have been chasing the wrong target. You may have been chasing the wrong goals. And when I say the wrong goals, I'm not saying that they're wrong because in of themselves, they may be wrong for you. And if they're wrong for you, they're wrong, right? If you've been chasing it because other people want you to chase them because your mom, your dad, you know, your boyfriend, your girlfriend, your cat, your dog wanted you to achieve those goals, you're chasing the wrong target. Okay? So this is not about beating yourself up. I want to clarify this. So going back to what I told you in the beginning here about why it's not even your fault is because of this. Because if you have set targets, goals, ideals, right? Social idealism that you have chased. And if you're chasing those because someone told you you should or because you've been so indoctrinated, so hypnotized to believe, to value that thing and you're not achieving it, it's not because you can't it’s because it really doesn't matter to you. You just believed it mattered. But you were chasing a lie. And that may sound kind of harsh to say, but I just want you to think about this. Why am I saying this? I'm saying this because if you don't start by identifying who you are, what you want, what you truly want, right? When I say truly want, I'm saying not based on a fantasy on what we might believe will give us more respect, more appreciation, more love, more significance from other people, because then we'll be chasing the wrong targets. So if you want to achieve the kind of goals and dreams that truly matter, that create a meaningful life and where you can be in control of your life, of your business or your health, and not be seduced, then this is what we're going to dive into today. Okay? So let me start first by just getting into the seven areas of life. You've probably seen many different versions of this, but I'm going to share these areas with you because I think they are the areas where most people want to make improvements. I'm going to classify for you how you can make these improvements or how you make these shifts, right? That you want to have happen. Before we do that, let's just go into the areaa so you can at least see them. We have 7 areas to look at. The first one is your mental area. Your mental capacities and your ability to focus or decision making. Your ability to handle the stress, your ability to have clarity, your mental capacity, right? Your mental focus. You may want to improve that, right? You got business and career. The business you’re in, the career, vocation you have, right? That's another area we can set goals and targets  You can use different words. Targets, goals, outcomes, dreams. Okay. Then we have your financial area. Your financial life, how you acquire money, how you manage money, how you invest your money, right? Your income. Then we have the relationship area, right? Your relationship with yourself. Relationship with a spouse, relationship with kids, your family, your mom and dad. Relationships. Sisters and brothers. You may have goals in that area, right? And we're gonna be able to answer a question around that. Meaning so we understand what, what you want. Like what's, what's one thing that you want to accomplish in the area of relationship? I don't know what that is. We're going to clarify that, whether that's more intimacy, better communication, right? I don't know what it is for you, but that's the one area. And then we have socially. The social area or being social, being with other people. Not directly connected to your closest family, right? People that you meet out. It can be work relationships, it can be friendships, it could be educational, it could be all kinds of people that you meet, right? It can even be social media relationships. Then we have there your of your physical area, right? Your physical health, your energy. How you physically feel. And we all know that, right? We would that if you don't feel good physically, nothing else really feels meaningful. I mean, I know this year's been quite a challenge for me in many ways physically. And it just makes it harder to enjoy life. Physical pain. If you don't have the energy to move, right? If you, your brain is not active fully, that's gonna impact you. Are All these areas going to impact you, right? So physical health, your vibrancy, the amount of energy that you have or the lack off, right? Whether it's a weight goal or muscle gain that you want or you just want more energy, I don't know what it is for you as this physical area. And then we have the spiritual area. The spirit spiritual area is one of those areas that people have in their 7 areas of life and sometimes they don't even know what it is. And they sometimes don’t know how to pinpoint what it is. There are many ways of describing it. In my perception of spirituality, there's no difference between inside, and outside. It's all the same. It's all part of being here. I also look at it as a way to live in alignment with your values so you’re congruent with your values and be able to contribute those values to other people as well. That I am congruent and aligned with who I am and be able to share who I am with other people to contribute to other people's lives. So that's the way I describe it. Which makes it more solid to me, not so abstract. Also something I can be more in control over and not leave it to other people or entities. So those are the seven areas. And this is what I'm planning in this first section today, to look at those seven areas, but also cover values. And the reason I want to cover values is because it's critical. That's what I'm going to go into right now... How’d you like that? Like I said, I have a surprise. Tomorrow I’m going to release a BONUS session for you where I will walk you through how to identify your values so that when you set goals, that they are aligned with what you’re going after. Sound good? So make sure you tune in to tomorrow’s bonus session on how to clarify your values.

You're probably studying all the different strategies out there, right? That's also great. But the hardest part is figuring out how to remove overwhelm and friction and get done what matters without burning yourself and without killing yourself in the process, right? That's what I struggled with for a while until I learned the secrets of Precision Based Growth.

In this video, I get myself worked up a bit over the confusion people experience when debating "Are ALL calories created equal?". You could argue this is semantics, but I still feel it is a foundationally important principle for us to all understand.

This is Part 2 that is following on from previous episode No. 142 where thousands have asked us questions on various media about religions, Ahonu asks Aingeal Rose these questions in the Akashic Records, and her answers will both inspire and astonish you! Part 1 ~ Part 2 In this episode, Ahonu asked her: What is Source's view of religions in general? What would the world be like if we weren't influenced by religions? Can you talk to us about the pagan influence behind the Catholic religion? Are all belief systems about God made up? Have religions helped our evolution or hindered it? What about the yogic way to enlightenment? Are ALL traditions, myths and cultures made up by man? What would the human being be like without outside influences? Are we as a species destined to always have hierarchy? Is it true that humanity naturally degenerates like in the book and film "Lord of the Flies"? Are we capable of evolving our own biology and consciousness? What influences predate religions and goddess cultures? Who would we be by now if there were no authority figures molding us? Can Source tell us what influences have helped us and what have stifled us? Can Source give us an assessment of the human race as it stands now? What is the most important thing Source would like us to know about ourselves? What was the intention behind the ancient practice of sacrificing lambs? ...and more!

Another Kind of Distance: A Spider-Man, Time Travel, Twin Peaks, Film, Grant Morrison and Nostalgia Podcast

What happens when Jane Austen meets Back to the Future? In LOST IN AUSTEN (2008), a modern-day Pride and Prejudice fan travels to the fictional past and tries not to screw up the canon pairings, but it's hard when you're irresistible to every man in the story, and some of the women. Dave and Elise try to figure out if Mary Sue can ever be an adequate substitute for Elizabeth Bennet, and whether the latter would really choose the internet over Mr. Darcy. Elise struggles to remember what she actually discovered as a research assistant on the Cambridge Edition of Jane Austen's Juvenilia (2006) except that Austen hated babies, and Dave laments his Stereo Mouth. The discussion leads inexorably to the interesting quetion: Are ALL time travel tales "Mary Sue" narratives? Don't forget, you can always write us at anotherkindofdistance@gmail.com, or contact us through our Facebook Page or Twitter account (@TimeTravelFilms).  We're on all of the podcast delivery services, including iTunes, TuneIn radio and Stitcher, so please rate/review us there, if you can! Finally, as suggested by listener Jay, here's an Amazon link to Dave's time travel novel, Hypocritic Days (published by Insomniac Press), which is set in the pulp magazine and film worlds of the early 1930s. Please do let us know if you check it out!

To celebrate the vernal equinox in the tradition of Chris’ ancestors, we at once lamely lament the continued dearth of female voices on our podcast, and simultaneously criticize The Agenda for their disingenuous comments about their own sausage party. We then recap this year’s Canada Reads series and how it brought some passionate discussion about colonization onto the mainstream airwaves, as well as the critiques and responses around Joseph Boyden’s book The Orenda. Then Chris launches an Escape Velocity Radio Reads segment featuring books he hasn’t yet finished, and we discuss some ideas on how decolonization, indigenous resurgence, and animal liberation might relate to each other.Episode LinksWhere, Oh Where, Are All the Female Guests?
