Millennial Potash Chairman Farhad Abasov joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the company has been granted the “Haute Banio” exploration permit, located adjacent to its core Mayumba exploration permit in southern Gabon. The Haute Banio exploration permit covers 261.39 square kilometres and is contiguous with the Mayumba permit. Strategically positioned, it fills the gap between the existing Mayumba exploration area and the Atlantic Ocean to the north, as well as the border with the Republic of the Congo to the south. A portion of the new permit also encompasses marine coastline areas, significantly enhancing the company's coastal access. Abasov explained that the addition of the Haute Banio permit is strategically important to Millennial's long-term development plans. With this award, the company now controls all of the western coastline areas tied to the project. He noted that the issuance of the permit reflects strong and ongoing support from the Gabonese government and recognizes the substantial progress the company has made advancing the Mayumba project. Drilling planned for the second half of 2026 will target the westward extension of the thick potash mineralization identified at Banio to date. The new permit also provides direct ocean access for potential future development requirements stemming from the ongoing Definitive Feasibility Study. In addition, it includes access to an existing road linking the project area to the local airport and the nearby town of Mayumba, supporting future logistics planning. The Haute Banio exploration permit is valid for an initial three-year term and may be renewed for two additional three-year periods. Millennial has committed to a comprehensive exploration program that will include geological and geophysical studies, seismic data reinterpretation, drilling, a new resource estimate, and the development of an Environmental and Social Management Plan. With this addition, Millennial Potash now controls approximately 1,500 square kilometres of exploration ground, fully covering the prospective potash-bearing units in Gabon and further consolidating its position in the region. #proactiveinvestors #millennialpotahscorp #tsxv #mlp #otcqb #mlpnf #potash #HauteBanio #MayumbaProject #GabonMining #PotashProject #ExplorationPermit #FertilizerMarket #CriticalMinerals #DFS #ResourceExpansion #CoastalAccess #MiningDevelopment #AfricanMining #SeismicStudies #Drilling2026 #InfrastructureAccess #EnvironmentalPlanning #GlobalAgriculture #ProjectGrowth

Most people avoided George Chase. He lived in a twelve-foot-square shack in the woods where New England’s Pawcatuck River meets Little Narragansett Bay. To the locals, it was obvious George didn’t have a bathtub. They could smell the evidence. One day a hurricane brought the Atlantic Ocean rushing over the seacoast, washing away the beachfront with its attractive homes. Survivors pulled themselves from the bay and began searching for refuge. Eleven of them, soaked and shivering, found it in George’s cabin. He gave them everything he had: water, milk, ginger tea, and shelter. After the hurricane of 1938, the townsfolk had a far different opinion of George Chase. It’s sad when we make superficial judgments about others, yet it’s our nature to do so. We do that with Jesus too. We might picture Him as He’s portrayed in old paintings, serenely handsome. But the prophet Isaiah said of the Messiah, “He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him . . . . like one from whom people hide their faces, he was despised, and we held him in low esteem” (Isaiah 53:2–3). Yet this Man gave us everything He had. “He took up our pain and bore our suffering” (v. 4). He offered His life for ours. It’s tragic when we miss the humanity of our fellow human beings. How much more tragic to miss the divinity of the One we despised!

This week on the Mark Levin Show, AOC, Gavin Newsom and Hillary Clinton trash our country overseas because they hate our country. While our brave and patriotic military personnel stationed overseas are protecting the free world, they give aid and comfort to our enemies. And none of them have done anything for the betterment of our country. Later, a massive raw sewage spill is occurring in the Potomac River due to a break in a six-foot pipe on the Maryland side, dumping millions to hundreds of millions of gallons of raw sewage into the river flowing through Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, D.C. This poses serious health risks, environmental damage, and threats to people, wildlife, the regional water supply, and potentially the Atlantic Ocean. This is Democrat mismanagement—particularly by Maryland's Democrat leaders—for causing the crisis. Meanwhile, Democrats in Congress have defunded FEMA forcing its employees to coordinate cleanup efforts without pay. Also, processed foods should be defended against their common portrayal as dietary villains. About 100 years ago, mass urbanization, poverty, and lack of refrigeration made fresh food scarce, expensive, and prone to spoilage or contamination in cities, leading to widespread issues like foodborne illnesses, malnutrition, stomach cancer, dysentery, and short life expectancy. Processed foods, including canning, pasteurization, and preservatives, emerged as a critical solution to feed growing populations safely and affordably, preventing starvation and reducing risks from rancid or adulterated items. While some synthetic additives may have downsides, they are far safer than historical alternatives like rotten eggs or swill milk. Our military personnel deserve our respect and our gratitude. They stand ready to act on orders from President Trump to protect current and future generations from Iran. Ordinary Americans strongly support the military, unlike Marxists, Islamists, woke individuals, neo-Nazis, and isolationists. Isolationism against evils like Islamism, Communism, and fascism is suicidal. Sen Bernie Sanders continues to display a perplexing misunderstanding of economics with his recent attacks on billionaires like Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg. He claims these wealthy individuals are thwarting a wealth tax measure and insists they should pay their "fair share," ignoring the fact that the top 1% already contribute over 40% of federal income taxes. Instead of fostering an informed dialogue about economic realities, Sanders resorts to Marxist and Socialist rhetoric that vilifies success and oversimplifies the complexities of wealth creation. It's high time we confront this misguided socialist perspective and recognize the vital role that successful entrepreneurs play in driving our economy forward. Learn more about your ad choices.

In November of 1979, a man was found beaten to death along a quiet trail in a New Hampshire college town. Within a day, police had a suspect, but the case was hardly open and shut.The college student convicted of the murder – and the family who stood by him – were prepared to spend a lifetime fighting to prove his innocence. They believed the investigation narrowed too quickly, that key questions went unanswered, and that the truth had yet to fully surface. But before the courts could decide what came next, the Atlantic Ocean wrote the final chapter of this story.View source material and photos for this episode at: darkdowneast.com/josephwoodside Dark Downeast is an Audiochuck and Kylie Media production hosted by Kylie Low.Follow @darkdowneast on Instagram, Facebook, and TikTokTo suggest a case visit darkdowneast.com/submit-case Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show, Liberty's Voice Vodcast launched today and it's different from radio or TV. Today's first episode focused on a detailed, phrase-by-phrase breakdown of the Declaration of Independence, providing historical context and highlighting its unique, inspiring, and exceptional nature as the foundation of the nation. And contrasted it with the core ideological principles of Marxism, noting how Marxism was adapted into an Americanized form by the progressive movement in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Also, there's confusion about the current situation with Iran, we initially thought military action was imminent but recent reports of another meeting in two weeks have created uncertainty. Iran continues repressing and killing its opposition while tightening its police state control. Any deal lifting sanctions would allow the regime to survive indefinitely, gain funds to strengthen its military and Islamist control, and lie about compliance, similar to North Korea. President Trump understands that if he does attack, he must win decisively. Later, a massive raw sewage spill is occurring in the Potomac River due to a break in a six-foot pipe on the Maryland side, dumping millions to hundreds of millions of gallons of raw sewage into the river flowing through Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, D.C.

This is get rich education.   Keith Weinhold  2:35   Welcome to GRE from the Adriatic Sea to the Atlantic Ocean and across 188 nations worldwide, I'm Keith Weinhold, and this is get rich education. Sometimes we all need a mindset reset, and this can include me. Sometimes. James clear, the author of atomic habits, says there are four types of wealth, financial wealth, which is money, social wealth, which is status, time, wealth which is freedom, and physical wealth, which is health. Be wary of jobs that seduce you with one and two but rob you of three and four. That is to say, be careful with jobs that seduce you with financial and social wealth but rob you of time and physical wealth that is definitely going to happen to you during your life, especially early in your working career. But many people, even most people, they don't do much about this. They just go on and on, selling their soul to their employer for decades. Sometimes paychecks aren't compensation. They're a bribe from an employer to give up your dreams early in your career, delayed gratification actually makes some sense, because you need capital formation, you need down payments, you need dry powder. That is totally fair and the time in your life for delayed gratification. But there's a point that most people miss, the point where delayed gratification quietly mutates into denied gratification. This is huge. Most people miss this inflection point. When is this point in your life? That's when I'll do it later becomes, well, I guess I never did it at all. They look up at what they've got at age 65 and realize that they have a respectable title. They still wear Dockers pants. They have a 401, K that they must start paying tax on, and knees that creak louder than. The front door. Compound Interest hardly outpaces taxes and inflation. That's just going to keep you in one spot, you know, and you're never going to get that time back. There is no do over there. So you need to get to the point where you can be more frugal with your time than your money. Younger people have a harder time adopting this mindset, and that's a little natural, because they have more time and less money. Sooner than later, you must desperately get financially free so that you can simply be your self workaholics, optimize income instead of assets, and you can't let that happen, because labor does not compound and capital does compound, your quality of life will exceed your cost of living when your life is funded by what you own, not by what you do that takes a different mindset. You can either be a conformer or you can build wealth when you invest in real estate that pays five ways. It's like what you're doing is buying future Tuesdays, where you never have to work again and then later, add on future Wednesdays, where you never have to work again because you got the compound leverage instead of the impotent compound interest. I mean, just consider your two and a half million dollar portfolio that is passively doing the same work as someone who sells 40 to 50 hours a week of their life away for 100k in yearly salary. All right, maybe you're thinking, Oh, that all sounds thought provoking, but if you're not engaged on that, it can sound airy and philosophical and even risky. It's sort of like, yeah, you're cueing the acoustic guitar music and slow motion images of someone pensively gazing at a sunset.   Keith Weinhold  7:12   All right, what is the concrete plan? It's not all about mindset. It only starts with mindset. You got to make that actionable. Well, we constantly provide concrete plans for you here on this show, and I've got another concrete plan for you toward the end of the show today. This harkens back to what I discussed with you seven weeks ago, seven episodes ago on the show. That's when I discussed the world's first billionaire, John D Rockefeller and his enduring quote from about 100 years ago, he who works all day has no time to make money. Yeah, that's the quote a little review. What you learned seven episodes ago is that Rockefeller meant, if you spend your life doing tasks, you're never going to rise high enough to own things that pay you for life. The bottom line here is that earning a living is a distinctly different activity than building wealth. That's what we're talking about here.    Keith Weinhold  8:14   Well, there is a new wave of landlords entering the market, and they are reshaping what owning rentals looks like. One survey by rental platform avail of nearly 2000 users. It's really influential. It found that 53% of landlords became landlords in the last five years. So you have a lot of new landlords with the most 17% of landlords entering the market in just the last year, most purchased a property specifically to rent it out, and 1/3 sort of backed into this business by renting out their former residence. Of course, some people want to rent out their former residence today, if they got locked into that sexy owner occupied three and 4% financing from 2022 and earlier, the survey went on to tell us with some really good takeaways here, 72% of landlords manage between one and four units, and this avail survey. I mean, it's just another one that shows that the majority of landlords operate small portfolios, classic mom and pop investors. That one's not too surprising. The top three reasons that landlords gave for entering the rental market, they're pretty interesting. The number one reason for getting into this at 41% of respondents is building long term wealth. Next 33% for generating passive income, and the third most popular one, it's a distant third, it is preparing for retirement at 13% so building long term wealth is the number one reason for getting into this, and that is the right reason. Them when it comes to ownership structure, 64% said that they own the property individually, whether that's through a single member LLC or in their own name, doing it, yeah, individually, rather than with a family member or a business partner. So really, the summary of this terrific, recent avail landlord survey is that if you're just getting started, you're not alone. A lot of people are most own properties solely in their own name, and the number one reason for doing it is to build long term wealth. Now there's another pervasive set of economic trends out there in the broader economy, but it's really a benefit for real estate investors, and that is the fact that wage growth has now outpaced consumer price growth for three years. Yeah, another way to say that is that wage growth has outpaced inflation for fully three years. Yeah, most people just aren't feeling it yet. So you might be taken somewhat aback by that, and why aren't people feeling that wage growth is faster than inflation, the pandemic inflation spike that was so huge, it was like getting hit with a freight train, and then someone tells you, good news, the train has stopped. Yeah, that's nice. You are still lying on the tracks, rubbing your ribs. That's because we're all still absorbing spiked prices for everything from a lumber two by four to a York Peppermint Patty, year over year, wages are up 3.8% and consumer inflation is 3% All right, so wages above inflation, that means things are getting a little more affordable, but both wages and inflation have grown faster than home prices, which have only grown about one and a half percent, and this is all per the BLS in the FHFA, so wage growth Being more than double home price growth. Well, that trend really makes properties more affordable, but historically, they're still not that affordable. Everybody knows that home prices soared until about 2023 that was the turning point, and now wages are in their catch up phase. All right, but what really matters to real estate investors is, when will this wage growth translate to rent growth, historically, big rent growth that lags big home price growth by about two to four years. So you have the big home price growth, big rent growth hits two to four years later, historically. Now, if that holds true, we should finally see substantial rent growth this year or next year. Rent growth has still been pretty soft in the one to four unit space, and even there are rent decreases in the overbuilt apartment space. Future income growth promises to make homes more affordable. Affordability has already improved, with mortgage rates hovering near three year lows. There's one problem, though, that most people overlook, and that is this wage growth has been skewed toward the higher income deciles, renters, especially workforce renters, they don't feel it until later. So this 3.8% wage growth, it's heavier for higher income people, and it's lighter for lower income people. I swear, when there are enriching economic trends, it always hits the higher income people first, and it doesn't trickle down until later. So if you as an investor, are positioned before the rent wave hits, you are surfing, and if you wait to feel it, you're swimming behind the boat. Higher wages should translate to higher rents in the next one to two years. And as far as some other forces, as we all know, the man occupying the oval office in the White House, the President, he wants lower rates. The current Fed Chair isn't so willing to do that. The next one, the one he appointed, Kevin Warsh, who arrives in May. He seems more receptive to lower rates, but it's gonna take a while. It all moves so slow. We have had 16 fed chairs before worsh over 112 years. And look how much of an econ nerd Are you? Are you as bad as me? These voices are in chronological order, and I can name each speaker.   Corey Coates  14:47   You're going to have to live with the fact that forecasts have a range of uncertainty, irrational exuberance.   Corey Coates  14:54   In my opening remarks, I'd like to briefly first review today's policy decision, but   Corey Coates  14:58   first I'll review recent. Economic developments in the Outlook, and we are well positioned to wait to see how the economy evolves.   Keith Weinhold  15:06   If you can name each of those speakers, I would love to give you a free property from gremarketplace.com but I can't quite swing that in order. Those voices are Paul Volcker. He served from 1979 to 87 he was known for crushing double digit inflation by jacking rates to near 20% it was painful medicine, but it worked the next one. Alan Greenspan sir, from 1987 to 2006 that was a long reign, almost 20 years. He oversaw the 90s economic boom, the.com bubble and the early housing bubble. Years so far, Greenspan is the only Fed chair that I have met in person. Then Ben Bernanke, he was the Fed chair from 2006 to 2014 he took the helm right before the 2008 financial crisis. He rolled out QE and emergency lending on an historic scale. In fact, he was nicknamed helicopter Ben because it's like he would print so much money that he just dropped it out of huge sacks, dollar bills in huge sacks, dropping them from an airplane, metaphorically, not literally. Then Janet Yellen, 2014 to 2018 she kind of continued this post crisis normalization, and she was the first woman to chair the Fed and then, of course, Jerome Powell serving from 2018 to 2026 he navigated the covid stimulus, ultra low rates. And then after that, the fastest rate hiking cycle in decades to fight inflation back in 2022 being the Fed chair is the most important job in this economy, and over the decades, there's been more of a movement of the fed into the public eye. You just hear about them more in the media than you used to. But like I touched on last week, it just still doesn't mean as much to real estate investors as a lot of people think, people sometimes look for someone else to come save them, but it's more about you and the choices that you make that's what means more housing supply and demand means more real estate investors have profited during every one of those Fed Chair reigns, which go back almost 50 years from Volcker to today, I think everybody knows that fed chairs don't control property prices, and they don't even control long term interest rates. What's a little paradoxical is that Trump has been vocal about how he wants more affordable home prices, yet at the same time he wants existing homeowners to have their home prices go up, those two things seem to be in tension. They're in conflict with each other. The only way you can possibly get both are through lower mortgage rates. But is he going to see later today you as a GRE follower, you don't have to wait for lower rates income, property still feels less affordable than it did five years ago, because it is that's real but here's the key distinction in what makes real estate investors different from owner occupied homeowners. Affordability isn't about the price of the property, it's about whether the property pays for itself and grows your net worth while inflation does the heavy lifting. Higher prices don't kill investors. Inaction during inflation does you're not buying a say, $350,000 property. You're controlling it with $70,000 while your tenant and inflation do the rest. We do not rely on hope or appreciation. We start with income tax benefits and debt pay down and then leverage appreciation typically happens as well. GRE only succeeds when investors close on properties that perform long term. One bad referral costs us years of trust, so we don't do that. The best question for you really isn't whether property is affordable. The question is whether owning an investment property is better than inflation compounding against you. That's the investor lens today.    Keith Weinhold  19:24   coming up next week on the show here, we're going to discuss apartments. It's been a truly be leaguered sector, where their prices have fallen 2030, and 40% in many markets. We've discussed apartments here on the show a lot before, like with Grant Cardone on episode 264, with Ken McElroy, countless times with me monologuing about apartments. And next week, we're going to talk to a multifamily educator who is known as the apartment King. Later on, a future show, we've got the return of the financial. Firebrand, and lately, the financial comedian Garrett Gunderson, a powerful speaker. That's definitely going to be interesting. As for today, you'll hear a first person account from a Florida resident about why he's moved to Florida and why he invests there. You've heard of this guy before. That's next. I'm Keith Weinhold.

Thanks for having me on.   Keith Weinhold  23:16   We're just playing it all casual and comfortable here in house.

Well, you know you do live in Florida, so you must have your own perspective on the Florida market. You live in the Tampa area, and the reason that that's a germane topic is that's something we've been talking about here lately as really an opportunity, and that is because most of Florida has seen some temporary property price attrition, but yet more population growth is projected. So that's why we feel like that's temporary. But why don't you tell us about what you see on the ground there?   Naresh Vissa  24:07   Keith, I've lived in Florida for 11 and a half years now. That's Tampa, Florida. I like Florida a lot. I moved here December 2014 for similar reasons that many people are moving here today. So I moved to Florida in December 2014 because of no state income tax, because of, at the time, lower cost of living. Florida was one of the states I got hit the hardest during the 2008 financial crisis, or nothing called in a real estate crisis, Florida, Arizona, those few others got hit really, really hard. So Florida at that time was still rebounding from 2008 so I moved for the affordability, the no income tax, of course, the weather better. Weather. And then most places in the Northeast I've lived so weather is a big deal when it comes to real estate and geography as well. These are all different reasons to move to Florida, and these are the reasons why I moved to Florida. I was also single in my 20s, so I was much younger at the time. I was single in my mid 20s, and Florida is very good for that too. For 20 something Gen Z folks today, Florida is definitely a place that they should consider. I moved down here and I fell in love with it. From day one. I got a place living right on the water, a beach. Got beaches everywhere. Florida's tour. And I say all this because these are all enticing features of Florida, for renters, for tenants, for snowbirds. I had never even heard of what a snowbird was until I moved down to Florida, where you have people who literally live here for seven months of the year, and then they live in their home state for five months of the year. So that's generally what it is, seven months in Florida, five months in their home state, which can be the people I know personally are from New York, Connecticut, Illinois, Ohio. The list goes on and on. Basically anywhere that's north of Florida could be considered a snowbird area. So that's another reason why Florida is a very hot market. Now, obviously, during the pandemic, in end of 2020, people started moving to Florida in droves. Part of it was politically, because you didn't have the restrictions that other states had during that crazy time that we lived through. And another part of it was work from home. So similar to me, in 2014 when I became full time work from home, I wanted to move somewhere for all those different reasons that I gave you the total package, and Florida fit that there was maybe one other state that fit the bill, based on everything that I told you, probably one other state. That's it. So Florida fit the bill, and that's why I think Florida is always going to be despite the hurricane prep, Florida is always going to be a destination that people will seriously look at whether you're older, retirement age or younger. Like I said in my mid 20s, single guy Florida is always going to be that destination for all the reasons that I laid out. So with that being said, what does that mean for real estate? What that means for real estate is that there's going to be a constant supply of people coming into Florida, and when there's a constant supply of people coming into Florida, then you can expect real estate prices to at least not decline. We passed, you know, all sorts of bills, including Dodd Frank post 2008 to prevent people from taking out mortgages that they couldn't afford. So now that that's out of the way, when you have a constant supply of people who are able to afford homes, who are able to afford rents, well, that's going to be a constant supply. So that's good for investors, that's good for appreciation. It's good for cash flow. And that's why I'm a huge fan, not just of the state of Florida, but also investing in Florida. And I own real estate in Florida, and you can say that I lucked out, but I bought a property in 2019 and it nearly doubled in value, yeah, when I say doubled in value in a matter of I want to say, like, two years, two and a half years, it nearly doubled in value. So with that being said, Florida, this was a rare cyclical trend when we just saw this huge upswing, rare cyclical trend. But I don't anticipate cycles like this, where you're going to have booms and busts. Moving forward, we haven't seen a bus since 2008 like I said, the the law has been taken care of in that sense, the regulation. I love the state. I've lived in six major cities, but maybe five different states, and Florida is hands down my favorite. That's why I've lived here for what did I say? 11 and a half or 12 and a half years? I don't even remember anymore. It's actually 11 and a half. My roots are here. I now consider myself a Florida person, even more so than the state of Texas, where, which is where I spent 18 years. I have no doubt that I'll surpass 18 or 19 years in Florida, and that this is it, right here. And a major reason is because this is just such a great state. It's free, it's real estate friendly. This is for people who are looking at buying primary residences, not for investment properties. But the governor has put on the ballot this coming election cycle to remove, to abolish the property tax in the state of Florida. So if you own, if you live full time, not a snowbird, not investors, but if you live in Florida permanently, then no more property tax if the vote passes. So that's another huge plus for owning property if you're a permanent resident in Florida,   Keith Weinhold  29:57   yeah, even if the property tax is abolished. Which seems unlikely, you could just tell what the tenor and the temperature of the tax climate and the investing climate is like in Florida, if they're even spearheading such a proposal, and they're a national leader in something like property tax abolition, like they are and Naresh about eight years after you moved there, which would be, what about 2020? 2022, somewhere in there, we had that strong pandemic migration push into Florida. What's happened is that that flow has slowed down. There's still positive net in migration in there in Florida. But the builders, they got ahead of this, and the pandemic migration wave waned, and they had a temporarily overbuilt condition, and they still do now, which is one reason why we've seen prices fall somewhat in most Florida zip codes, and this spells part of the opportunity. So you do have all these new build properties, some of which are vacant, but you have a good chance they're going to get absorbed pretty soon. And there are some obvious advantages to owning new build.   Naresh Vissa  31:11   Well, Keith, there is brand new construction in Florida, like you said. The work started in 2021 and there are homes that have not been sold. I don't want to say, since they were finished building in 2021 they recently finished building in 2025 and these homes could be a variety of reasons. It could be economic related. It could be hurricane related. In Tampa, the Central Florida, we had two horrible hurricanes back to back within a 15 day period, two really bad hurricanes towards the end of 2024 September and October 2024 and people lost their homes. Renters lost their homes. Other people just were freaked out and scared and said, You know what? I don't want to deal with. I've got PTSD from these hurricanes. I'm moving up to Alabama or Georgia or Orlando, you know, somewhere in Central Florida, that's a way. But even that area, you know, the hurricane still made it through to those areas too. People just picked up and said, You know what I'm done with Florida. It's a great state, but I don't want to deal with these hurricanes. And so regardless, whatever the reason, this is a pie, and these are all slices of the pie, I don't know what's been more of a contributing factor than which one has been more than the others. But with that being said, there are tons of properties in Florida, pretty much the entire state of Florida, where, especially new construction properties, are below at the time when they were being built, they're below what they anticipated being listed as. And So Keith, we're having a special webinar this Thursday, talking about these properties because they are discounted properties. They are properties that are selling at tremendous discounts, like I said to when Ground was broken years ago. So join that webinar. Gre, webinars.com gre webinars.com. Again, brand new construction. Many of these properties already have tenants in place. Not all of them, but many of them do already have tenants in place. There are all sorts of incentives that the builder is offering. And there are many builders in that, not just this one that's going to be on the webinar, but in Florida, there are many builders who are offering discounts, rate, buy downs, other incentives, because the home values have fallen somewhat a bit. Why have the home values falling? Because the demand has fallen as well. So again, the next question people might have is, well, if the demand is falling, if home home values are falling, why would I buy the trend is downward. And the answer is, whether it's a stock or any other security, you don't necessarily want to have the FOMO to buy at an all time high, just because everyone else is buying it. And I actually have family members who bought real estate at the peak of 2022 there was FOMO and there was, hey, you know, I need to get a flip, and they're down. They bought peak 2022, and they're down today. Because, look, you can pick any housing market in the country, especially a prime state like Florida. Look at any 30 year period, and you will see that home values are up double digits, even if you look at 2009 when the housing market crashed and we reached something like 10 year bottom in housing, if you look at the 30 year period, well, if someone who bought a house in Florida in, say, 1979 was still way up on their property in 2009 30 years later, we're not buying Bitcoin here where it can go up 30% in one day or go down 30% in one day. We're talking real estate, and real estate has been proven. It's been tested. It's been proven throughout time, not even a 30 year period. I think if you take any 20 year period, you're going to see the same trend of double digit gains, double digit growth. On real estate appreciation. So I'd say, if you're skeptical about Florida, you see these home values, all these discounts, that's the first thing I hear from followers. They say, why are they offering so many discounts? I'm a little concerned about all these discounts and incentives, and I don't know if that's a good thing. Well, I say, Well, I mean, you can buy full price in another state, if you'd like, you know, in California or so you could, you're more than free to buy full price. But we're talking Florida here. We're not talking about West Virginia or Rhode Island, or, you know, Nebraska. We're talking Florida. This is still the land of Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse, this is the land of the best beaches in the country. I mean, they there's just no arguing or debating these facts. Florida all the reasons that I stated earlier, is going to continue to be a hot, hot market. So I highly recommend people, if you want to get in on these discounted deals, G R E, webinars.com G R E, webinars.com register for our upcoming online and live special event this Thursday evening at 8pm Eastern Time, 8pm Eastern Time, gre webinars.com you won't want to miss this free, online and live special event.   Keith Weinhold  36:25   When a pound of oranges is on sale or a pound of zucchini is on sale, consumers are often attracted to that sale. Should probably be the same way with you considering adding to your real estate portfolio, and it's funny, when oranges of zucchinis are on sale, no one tries to find fault with it and think that they're rotten inside or something like that. But somehow with real estate or an investment that tends to get scrutiny from people, but these are real discounts that you're getting over buying, say, two years ago, and we're talking about a motivated seller here. And as you know, Naresh, we had the builder on the show last week, the one that's going to be co hosting the webinar with you on Thursday, and he talked to us about buying down mortgage rates to between 3.75% and 4.25% and we're here at a time where the owner occupied rate is six to six and a quarter the investor rate is seven, so you're getting about a three percentage point buy down. That's really the attraction. And Naresh, before I ask you, if you have any last thoughts, yes, again, it is our live event that you can attend from the comfort of your own home, Thursday the 19th, at 8pm eastern in just a few days, here with Naresh and the builder who you heard on last week's show, co hosting a live webinar for Central Florida so inland new build income property. It's free. You're invited, and the benefit of you attending live is that you can have any of your questions answered in real time. You're going to learn more about the Central Florida market and more about the home building process, and you are going to be able to see available new bill property, real addresses, with some of these pretty grand incentives that we've talked about again. GRE webinars.com, any last thoughts? Naresh   Naresh Vissa  38:17   I get a lot of questions about is right now the time to buy? Should I buy later? What's going to happen with real estate? And I know the number one question, or the number one caution our followers are going to have, is, is right now the time is March or April, the time. And I say, look, with real estate, I already gave you the figure that you take any 20 year time period, any 30 year time period, and that's our time horizon here at GRE again, we're not trying to buy bitcoin here and flip it, you know, two days later, we're looking to buy and hold for, I don't want to say forever, but I know my time horizon in general is the full 30 year term, at least for my properties, and some people you know, want 10 or 15 years. That's fine too, but that's the time horizon. It is not one year, two years. We're not flipping new construction properties here in Central Florida. We are looking to buy and hold over the long haul, get some very good, high quality tenants in there, in these new construction properties, so that you, the GRE follower and the investor, can collect your monthly cash flow as well as over that 20 year period, or that 30 year period take part in appreciation as well. We've also talked extensively, Keith in previous episodes about interest rate cuts that the Federal Reserve is going to be doing, and just know this, there's a reason why the builder is offering these incentives where you can get the rates so low, your mortgage rate can be so low, and it's going to take at least a year, even if the Fed goes to zero. I mean, it's going to take mortgage rates a very long time. And to reach that point of getting such low interest rates that you just laid out, so that even makes it more enticing, like, Hey, I basically have a head start on the Federal Reserve because I follow the Fed pretty closely. We don't need to get into those details, but it's looking heavily like they are going to be start cutting again later this year, this summer. So it's looking like they're going to do that, but again, now you can have a head start, because when the Fed starts doing that, and when the mortgage rates fall, then everybody's going to jump in. And what's going to happen to the home values once everybody jumps in, well, they're going to go up. You want to jump in when everybody is not jumping in, and when you can get an amazing deal on these interest rates thanks to the builder buying down your interest rate. So this is a GRE special you can't get these deals. I challenge our followers to go on the internet and try to find better incentives or deals. And what you're going to see on this webinar, on this online, live special event. So gre webinars.com you can join me as well as our special guest. He heads up the builder. His name is Jim. He's going to be on with me. And please join us at grewebinars.com sign up for this free and live online special event.   Keith Weinhold  41:20   These are some great points. There's a lot of anticipation for Thursday, Naresh. We'll see you then.   Naresh Vissa  41:25   Thanks, Keith.   Keith Weinhold  41:32   Oh yeah, a first person account on Florida life and opportunity from our own Naresh nationally, the build to rent model that has been a real success, building single family rentals with the intent that they are rentals. From day one, over 321,000 homes have been built specifically as rentals this way since 2012, and more than three quarters of those in just the last five years. So the build to rent trend is picking up steam. About 1/3 of Americans rent their home, and although the word rental for some people that still conjures up visions of high rises packed with apartments, but a growing number of today's rentals are these freestanding, single family homes and duplexes like we're talking about today, nestled in suburban communities with top notch schools, and that's why a growing number of mom and pop investors have hopped on the build to rent bandwagon. They take less maintenance. It attracts quality tenants who stay longer, and the rentals have changed, but so had the renters. 20 years ago, it felt like tenants had to rent, like they had no choice. Today, you've got more and more tenants that choose to rent. Many of them make 100k to 125k or more. Today, rentals are cheaper than owning for those people, and they're less of a headache. A lot of them don't want to fix things, and you as the owner, don't want to either. That's why new build is attractive. Then, you know, I just sent that great map to our newsletter subscribers about which states saw the most population gain from 2020 to today, the South had more population growth than every other US region combined, which is jaw dropping and within the South, the state with the most population growth since 2020 is Florida, with An 8.9% population gain in that span, narrowly beating out Texas and South Carolina. By the way, even if it weren't for the attractive builder interest rate near 4% these Sunshine State deals could still make sense. New build single family rentals from the 270s new build duplexes, 395 to 420k low insurance rates, positive cash flow, a builder warranty. And it's really even better than that. These properties are centered on Ocala, Florida, which received national recognition as the fastest growing city for this second year in a row. That's according to a U haul report, and Florida is the epitome of investor friendly. Florida is the first state to enact a law allowing law enforcement to immediately remove squatters. It distinguishes them from legal tenants. You might come to the webinar event, perhaps thinking about 80k or 500k that you want to allocate toward property or maybe nothing and you just want to learn at the event you will evaluate realistic opportunities learn how property management is handled, and understand how today's inventory fits into your disciplined, long term strategy that all takes place on. On Thursday the 19th at 8pm Eastern. It's our biggest event of the year, and it is called Why Central Florida is the year's most compelling housing market. One last time for Thursday, it is gre webinars.com, until then, I'm your host.

Interview with Nolan Peterson, CEO of Atlas SaltOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/atlas-salt-tsxvsalt-developer-targets-north-americas-30-40-de-icing-salt-supply-gap-8975Recording date: 5th February 2026North America faces a growing crisis in road salt supply that most investors have overlooked. While the US$26 billion global salt market operates largely beneath public awareness, severe winter weather across the northeastern United States and Canada has exposed a structural deficit that has persisted for decades. Atlas Salt (TSXV:SALT) is developing the Great Atlantic Salt Project in western Newfoundland—the continent's first new salt mine in nearly 30 years—to address this critical infrastructure gap.The North American deicing road salt market imports 8-10 million tons annually to meet demand that domestic production cannot satisfy. Existing mines date predominantly from the mid-20th century, with operations beginning between 1906 and 1982. These aging facilities operate at depths of 500-600 meters, often beneath lakes, requiring high operating costs and substantial capital expenditures. Regulatory challenges and thin historical margins have prevented new mine development despite growing demand from population growth, expanded road networks, and increased vehicle numbers.Atlas Salt's competitive advantage stems from its shallow 200-meter deposit depth, which allows access via horizontal drift rather than expensive vertical shaft construction. Located just three kilometers from an existing port facility, the project gains direct access to Atlantic Ocean shipping lanes and the eastern seaboard market. The simplified production process requires only mechanical crushing of 96% grade salt—no chemical processing, tailings, or refining—enabling two-month environmental assessment approval.At full production capacity of 4 million tons annually, Atlas would need to capture only 30-40% of current import volumes, targeting non-cyclical government customers legally mandated to purchase salt for road safety. The market's inelastic demand was demonstrated in January 2026 when Ontario spot prices surged from $65-75 per ton to over $190 during severe winter conditions. CEO Nolan Peterson emphasizes the dual investment appeal: "We are working with lenders who view this as investing into an airport or power plant—something that has long-term sales baked in because you're selling your product to governments, citizens and people."View Atlas Salt's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/atlas-saltSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

In the 1920s, Józef Piłsudski was a household name not just in Poland, but across Europe and across the Atlantic Ocean as well. Yet this complex and contradictory figure – a socialist and a nationalist, a clandestine agitator and a legendary military strategist, protector of Jews and other national minorities on Polish soil who was nonetheless often accused of imperialism – has eluded serious biographical treatment in English until now. Yeshiva University professor Joshua D. Zimmerman offers a nuanced, readable, and definitive account of the man who re-founded the independent state of Poland in 1918. Jozef Pilsudski: Founding Father of Modern Poland (Harvard University Press, 2022) could not be more timely, given the lessons to be learned from Piłsudski's career by today's opponents of far-right populism in Eastern Europe, and even more urgently – by English-language readers seeking to understand the imperative of preserving an independent Ukrainian state in the face of Russian aggression. Piotr H. Kosicki is Associate Professor of History at the University of Maryland, College Park. He is the author of Catholics on the Barricades (Yale, 2018) and editor, among others, of Political Exile in the Global Twentieth Century (with Wolfram Kaiser). Learn more about your ad choices.

Imagine a building project that involved moving 7000 large stones across the Atlantic Ocean to reconstruct a building that was about 400 years old. That's...

In Episode 2, State of Delaware v. Thomas J. Capano, Part 1, Lisa and Kyle looked at the case against Thomas Joseph Capano. On June 27, 1996, Anne Marie Fahey, the scheduling secretary for Delware Governor Thomas Carper, went to dinner with Thomas J. Capano, a local attorney and the son of a prominent real estate developer in Wilmington, DE. The last time anyone saw Annie alive was at the restaurant in Philadelphia. After a lengthy joint state and federal investigation, in 1997, Capano's brother, Gerry, admitted that he'd helped his brother dump Annie's body in the Atlantic Ocean. In Part 1, Lisa and Kyle talked about the investigation, Capano's 1998 trial, his conviction on 01/17/1999 and the outcome of his direct appeal.

Islamic terrorists attacked the US Consulate in Benghazi on September 11, 2012, eleven years after the attacks on the World Trade Center. As noted previously, the Libyan nightmare was the result of a war that President Obama and Hillary Clinton started.  They never should have started the war in Libya, never should have placed Americans there unprotected, and when the Americans in Benghazi were under attack on 9-11, 2012 they should have provided help.  Instead, four Americans died in Benghazi as was famously portrayed in the movie 13 Hours. For days after the attack on Benghazi, President Obama and Hillary Clinton blamed the attack in Benghazi on a made up story about a US citizen who incited protests in Benghazi from a YouTube video about Islam. They continued with the story as the caskets of the four dead Americans, including Ambassador Chris Stevens, were shipped back to the US. Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton left the Consulate to fend for itself and never sent military support to rescue the men trapped at the Consulate. Attorney General Pam Bondi: On September 11th, 2012, Americans watched horrified as our embassy in Bengasi came under a vicious terror attack. We lost four American lives that day: Ambassador Chris Stevens, Sean Smith with the State Department, and two CIA contractors, Glenn Dordy and Tyrone Woods. We have never forgotten those heroes, and we have never stopped seeking justice for that crime against our nation. In fact, from day one, Cash and Dan would sit in meetings and say, We're going to get them, and they did. Today, I'm proud to announce that the FBI has arrested one of the key participants behind the Bengasi attack. Zubar Albaqash landed at Andrews Air Force Base at 03: 00 AM this morning. He is in our custody. He was greeted by Director Director Patel and US attorney Jeanine Piero.

The Government of Iran continues to restrict access to mobile, landline, and national internet networks. Airlines continue to limit or cancel flights to and from Iran. U.S. citizens should expect continued internet outages, plan alternative means of communication, and, if safe to do so, consider departing Iran by land to Armenia or Türkiye. Actions to Take: Leave Iran now. Have a plan for departing Iran that does not rely on U.S. government help. Flight cancellations and disruptions are possible with little warning. Check directly with your airlines for updates. If you cannot leave, find a secure location within your residence or another safe building. Have a supply of food, water, medications, and other essential items. Avoid demonstrations, keep a low profile, and stay aware of your surroundings. Monitor local media for breaking news. Be prepared to adjust your plans. Keep your phone charged and maintain communication with family and friends to inform them of your status. Enroll in the Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP)  to receive the latest updates on security in Iran. If You Plan to Leave Iran:  U.S.-Iranian dual nationals must exit Iran on Iranian passports.  The Iranian government does not recognize dual nationality  and will treat U.S.-Iranian dual nationals solely as Iranian citizens. U.S. nationals are at significant risk of questioning, arrest, and detention in Iran. Showing a U.S. passport or demonstrating connections to the United States can be reason enough for Iranian authorities to detain someone.  U.S. citizens who do not have a valid U.S. passport in their possession should apply for one at the nearest U.S. embassy or consulate after departing Iran. The U.S. government cannot guarantee your safety if you choose to depart using the following options. You should leave only if you believe it is safe to do so.

Democrats Cry As Trump Makes It Easier to Fire Federal Workers The Trump administration is planning to make it easier to discipline—and potentially fire—career officials in senior positions across the government, a move that would affect roughly 50,000 federal workers. The U.S. Office of Personnel Management, which oversees the federal workforce, issued a final rule on Thursday that creates a category of worker for high-ranking career employees whose work focuses on executing the administration's policies. Workers who fall into that category would no longer be subject to rules that for decades have set a high bar for firing federal employees.  The Trump team, however, characterizes the move as one that gives the executive branch the ability to better shape the bureaucracy to help serve its agenda, instead of allowing it to clandestinely thwart it: The administration has been clear that the goal of the rule is to more easily fire workers they argue are hindering Trump policies — a nod to the president's claims of a “Deep State” within the federal government trying to undermine him. “This is not about people's views or ideas. This is about whether they are refusing to actually affect their duties on behalf of the American people consistent with the objectives of this administration,” said Scott Kupor, director of the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), which promulgated the rule.   Source: redstate.com https://twitter.com/drawandstrike/status/2020298873923567783?s=20   doesn’t agree with the 5th Circuit’s ruling. How in the world would you REINSTATE a policy where an illegal who successfully evaded detection at a port of entry has legal recourse to bond when those illegals detected at a port of entry do not? The 5th just rightfully found that NEITHER kind of illegal should have recourse to bond – whether they are detected at a port of entry or they successfully sneak into the country and are here for months/years before being caught. The fact this absurd situation persisted for decades shows you the system was rigged to allow human trafficking and to create a literal legal industry to facilitate it.      Trump can “legally” mass deport ALL illegals, whether they have committed a crime or not. “A federal appeals court ruled that Trump administration can lock up the vast majority of people it is seeking to deport without offering a chance for bond, even if they have no criminal records and have resided in the country for decades.        https://twitter.com/alexahenning/status/2020196173663867144?s=20 https://twitter.com/HansMahncke/status/2020253940374245522?s=20   https://twitter.com/DNIGabbard/status/2020227805976678574?s=20  control of the Whistleblower's complaint, so I obviously could not have “hidden” it in a safe. Biden-era IC Inspector General Tamara Johnson was in possession of and responsible for securing the complaint for months. – The first time I saw the whistleblower complaint was 2 weeks ago when I had to review it to provide guidance on how it should be securely shared with Congress. – As Vice Chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee, Senator Warner knows very well that whistleblower complaints that contain highly classified and compartmented intelligence—even if they contain baseless allegations like this one—must be secured in a safe, which the Biden-era Inspector General Tamara Johnson did and her successor, Inspector General Chris Fox, continued to do. After IC Inspector General Fox hand-delivered the complaint to the Gang of 8, the complaint was returned to a safe where it remains, consistent with any information of such sensitivity. – Either Senator Warner knows these facts and is intentionally lying to the American people, or he doesn't have a clue how these things work and is therefore not qualified to be in the U.S. Senate—and certainly not the Vice Chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee. Here is a detailed chronology of the situation: – June 2025, I became aware that a whistleblower made a complaint against me that after further investigation, neither Biden-era IC Inspector General Tamara Johnson nor current IC Inspector General Chris Fox found the complaint to be credible. – The complaint required special handling and storage in a safe because the complainant chose to include highly sensitive information within the complaint itself rather than referencing the sensitive reporting and leaving the complaint at a lower level of classification. – Security standards for complaints that include such sensitive intelligence required the Inspector General to keep the complaint and the intelligence referenced secured in a safe from the time the complaint was made, until now. – In June 2025 after Biden-era Inspector General Tamara Johnson completed her review of the complaint, no further oversight or investigative activity took place. – Biden-era Inspector General Johnson had communicated with me directly throughout the course of her investigation into this complaint, yet neither she nor anyone from her office informed me that the Whistleblower chose to send the complaint to Congress which would require me to issue security instructions. – When a complaint is not found to be credible, there is no timeline under the law for the provision of security guidance. The “21 day” requirement that Senator Warner alleges I did not comply with, only applies when a complaint is determined by the Inspector General to be both urgent AND apparently credible. That was NOT the case here. – I was made aware of the need to provide security guidance by IC Inspector General Chris Fox on December 4, 2025, which he detailed in his letter to Congress. – I took immediate action to provide the security guidance to the Intelligence Community Inspector General who then shared the complaint and referenced intelligence with relevant members of Congress last week. Senator Warner’s decision to spread lies and baseless accusations over the months for political gain, undermines our national security and is a disservice to the American people and the Intelligence Community. https://twitter.com/seanmdav/status/2020151219210137711?s=20   https://twitter.com/AlecLace/status/2019802427487027667?s=20 https://twitter.com/WallStreetMav/status/2020150184374681890?s=20 https://twitter.com/AlecLace/status/2019849309148311983?s=20 https://twitter.com/TheStormRedux/status/2019941561367191842?s=20 https://twitter.com/Rasmussen_Poll/status/2020183096667128211?s=20  2.

We break down multiple federal investigations into Democratic state lawmakers accused of stealing COVID unemployment benefits while they were fully employed and collecting taxpayer-funded salaries. According to prosecutors, three Georgia Democrat legislators allegedly pocketed tens of thousands of dollars meant for families who were truly out of work during pandemic lockdowns. This wasn’t a paperwork mistake but a clear abuse of emergency relief funds, exposing a broader, nationwide problem of Democrat-led fraud during COVID. From hypocrisy over lockdown policies to the DOJ finally stepping in, this conversation takes a hard look at accountability, government corruption, and who really benefited from pandemic relief programs. 16:00 American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson weigh in on one of the most talked-about political documentaries of the year: Melania. They react to the surprise box office success of the film, which follows the 20 days leading up to Donald Trump’s second inauguration and Melania Trump’s return as First Lady. With more than $7 million in ticket sales, the documentary shattered expectations—and sparked curiosity. From Melania’s privacy, intelligence, and faith to her fashion choices and life behind the scenes, the conversation explores why she remains one of the most mysterious and misunderstood First Ladies in modern history. The Mamas compare her to past First Ladies, push back on media narratives, and explain why this film feels like a moment of redemption after years of controversy. Love her or hate her, this is a cultural moment—and a documentary—that has people talking. If you'd like to ask our American Mamas a question, go to our website, AmericanGroundRadio.com/mamas and click on the Ask the Mamas button. 23:00 A shocking line is crossed when a sitting member of Congress suggests Americans could be “justified” in shooting masked federal agents—and the fallout sparks a much deeper conversation. We react to explosive comments from Rep. Jerry Nadler targeting ICE agents, accusing them of “fascism” and igniting concerns about political rhetoric, law enforcement safety, and the rule of law. But the discussion doesn’t stop there. The controversy opens the door to a fascinating interview with author Jack Bialik, whose book Lost in Time explores how entire civilizations have lost—and later rediscovered—critical knowledge. From ancient cataract surgery to forgotten technologies and the fragility of digital data, the conversation connects today’s political chaos to a broader warning: when societies lose institutional memory, they lose stability. 32:00 Get Prodovite Plus from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 32:30 We break down President Trump’s latest move on Small Business Administration loans. After fraud scandals involving foreign nationals, the Trump administration now requires SBA loans to go only to businesses that are 100% owned by U.S. citizens or nationals. The logic is simple: taxpayers shouldn’t bankroll people who haven’t sworn allegiance to the country. Government-backed loans without accountability corrupt the system and punish honest entrepreneurs. 36:00 Apartment rents are quietly falling—and that’s no accident. We break down new CNBC data showing national median rents dropping to their lowest level in four years, a rare bright spot amid the affordability crisis. We dive into why rents are falling now, from increased housing supply and lighter regulation in red states to market forces finally speaking louder than politics. Also, thanks President Trump’s immigration enforcement, higher vacancy rates in states like Florida and Texas are forcing landlords to lower prices. With construction booming in Republican-led states and confidence returning to the economy, this is a case study in how border enforcement, deregulation, and market-driven housing policy can put downward pressure on rent—and put American renters first. 39:30 Pop star Billie Eilish’s “no one is illegal on stolen land” comment sparks instant backlash—and major irony. We break down how the Tongva tribe publicly responded by pointing out that Eilish’s $3 million mansion sits on their ancestral land. What starts as a celebrity soundbite quickly turns into a deeper debate over “stolen land,” property rights, and the logical contradictions behind activist talking points. 41:30 And we wrap up today's show with an incredible voyage that will make you say, "Whoa!" In an inspiring reminder of grit and personal growth, we spotlight Taryn Smith, who set out to row across the Atlantic Ocean—despite never having been in a rowboat before making the decision. Just 46 days after leaving the coast of Africa, Smith arrived in Antigua, becoming the first American woman to row solo across the Atlantic.

And I'm really glad my husband likes to cycle alone!  Far away from tunnels. The Road Unveiled by Tim Bishop Two wounded hearts. Long, winding roads. And second chances neither saw coming. Lauren Baumgartner pedals toward Yellowstone National Park, anticipating a grand celebration when she reaches the Atlantic Ocean. But when her wedding plans collapse, old wounds resurface—and a haunting secret still holds her heart hostage. Traveling alone with bear spray and a one-woman tent, she shares the highway with motorcyclists bound for a massive rally, including gang members who eye her as theirs for the taking. Doug Zimmer, another lone cyclist, is grappling with loss and wondering if anyone will be alongside him when he figures out what's next. He isn't the only one drawn to Lauren's vitality and spirit. But Lauren may already be in too deep. What she faces on the Golden Prairie Indian Reservation tests her courage—and her faith—more than anything she encountered as a missionary in Uganda.

On Jan. 28, 1986, NASA's 25th space shuttle mission, Challenger, left the launchpad in Cape Canaveral, Florida. Seventy-three seconds into flight, Challenger exploded over the Atlantic Ocean as millions of people watched. All seven people on board died. Now, forty years later, journalist Adam Higginbotham chronicles what went wrong. His book Challenger: A True Story of Heroism and Disaster on the Edge of Space pieces together stories from key officials, engineers and the families of those killed in the explosion – and details how its legacy still haunts spaceflight today. Consider checking out our episode speaking to an astronaut while she's in space.Have a scientific question you want us to answer?

Twenty years after the 2006 migration crisis, the Atlantic route between Senegal and the Canary Islands remains one of the most dangerous for migrants.

Bermuda Triangle is a large area in the Atlantic Ocean between Florida, Puerto Rico, and Bermuda. This region is notorious for its mysterious phenomena. Huge amounts of ships and planes have disappeared here. How many creepy stories about the disappearing of airplanes and ships in the Bermuda Triangle have you heard? We guess many. And here's another one. In 1880, the Ellen Austin, a big ship, left the port of Liverpool to make its trip to New York. The ship was carrying a load of people hoping to find a better life in the New World. A few weeks, they found themselves north of the Sargasso Sea, known for its lack of winds and strong circling currents. Worse still, the area belonged to the notorious Bermuda Triangle. One day, the Ellen Austin lost its speed one day and fell adrift without the winds. It was fine, though: they had ample provisions and were still on schedule. Captain Griffin was walking around his ship, giving orders. But then, the lookout shouted from above that a ship was in sight. As it came closer, it became apparent that the way the strange vessel moved wasn't right. The captain frowned and examined it through his spyglass. The schooner was untouched but eerily silent. There wasn't a single soul on board... Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Gather round for three campfire stories that cannot be explained.A corrections officer watches water materialize inside a concrete prison cell with no source. A YouTube channel uploads 72,000 videos in nine months at an impossible rate, then vanishes after pointing to coordinates in the Atlantic Ocean.Three Royal Navy cadets walk into an English village and find themselves surrounded by rotting oxen, frozen smoke, and watchers behind dark windows. These aren't urban legends or campfire tales passed down through generations.These are documented events with multiple witnesses—police officers, prison officials, military personnel, and investigators who went on record about what they saw. Water that falls upward. Channels that shouldn't exist. Villages trapped in time.Each story breaks something fundamental about how we understand reality. The witnesses had everything to lose and nothing to gain.Yet they couldn't deny what happened.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1HwC9L4BDpE

In this episode of the Daniel Leese Podcast, Guinness World Record holder Adam Ratcliffe shares the full story behind rowing across the Atlantic Ocean for 56 days — and why the hardest part wasn't the ocean, the capsizes, or the exhaustion… but the decision to change his life. Adam opens up about growing up lacking confidence, feeling stuck in the corporate world, and hitting a point where everything felt empty. From there, we explore how discipline, fitness, and doing hard things reshaped his identity — ultimately leading him to become an adventurer and take on one of the most mentally and physically demanding challenges on the planet. We dive deep into the real reality of ocean rowing: 3-hour sleep cycles, claustrophobia, injury, fear, and the moment the boat capsized in the middle of the Atlantic. Adam also explains the mindset that kept him going when quitting felt easier, including his powerful “90-year-old self” decision framework. This conversation goes beyond adventure. It's about purpose, resilience, men's mental health, discipline over motivation, and the uncomfortable truth that no one is coming to save you. If you're feeling lost, stuck, or questioning your direction in life, this episode is for you.

The United States Coast Guard seized another oil tanker, the Olina, on Friday. It is the fifth Venezuela-linked tanker seized by US forces under President Trump, and the third since the capture of former Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro. Earlier last week, the US seized a vessel near Iceland following a slow chase across the Atlantic Ocean. That ship, the Bella 1, was renamed the Marinera and started flying the Russian flag after US forces first tried to board it back in December. So, what's going on with all of these sneaky name changes? To find out, we spoke to Shelby Holliday. She's a senior video producer and journalist for The Wall Street Journal, where she focuses on geopolitics.And in headlines, protests across the U.S. continue following the death of Renee Good at the hands of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, Russia's war in Ukraine rages on, and Trump weighs his options in Iran as state violence against protestors ramps up.Show Notes:Check out Shelby's story – https://tinyurl.com/mv2tz794Call Congress – 202-224-3121Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this week's episode of Crux True Survival Stories, hosts Kaycee McIntosh and Julie Henningsen tell the extraordinary story of Poon Lim—a Chinese sailor who survived 133 days alone on a life raft in the Atlantic Ocean, the longest solo life raft survival ever recorded. When a German U-boat torpedoes the SS Ben Lomond in 1942, Poon Lim becomes the ship's sole survivor. Adrift with minimal supplies, he battles dehydration, starvation, and despair. Using nothing but his wits and will to live, he catches fish with makeshift hooks, snares seabirds, collects rainwater, and even kills a shark with his bare hands. Discover how Poon Lim endured repeated near-rescues, brutal sun exposure, and complete isolation—and what it truly takes to survive when hope seems impossible. 00:00 Introduction  00:47 Meet the Hosts 01:11 Setting the Scene: Poon Lim's Ordeal Begins 02:39 The Sinking of SS Ben Lamond 06:18 Surviving the Open Ocean 09:39 Crafting a Survival Strategy 11:32 Near Rescues and Psychological Strain 17:08 Storms and Setbacks 18:48 Desperation and Determination 19:49 The Struggle for Survival 20:25 Desperation and Hard Measures 21:26 Sharks: A New Challenge 22:19 Catching a Shark 26:03 The Mental and Physical Toll 27:02 Near Rescue and Renewed Determination 29:19 Final Rescue and Recovery 34:57 Post-War Life and Legacy 37:39 Podcast Outro and Listener Engagement Listen AD FREE: Support our podcast at patreaon: http://patreon.com/TheCruxTrueSurvivalPodcast Email us! thecruxsurvival@gmail.com Instagram https://www.instagram.com/thecruxpodcast/ Get schooled by Julie in outdoor wilderness medicine! https://www.headwatersfieldmedicine.com/ SOURCES Wikipedia: "Poon Lim" Wikipedia: "SS Benlomond (1922)" War History Online: "Mess Steward Poon Lim Survived 133 Days Lost At Sea" History Defined: "Surviving 133 Days at Sea: The Remarkable Life of Poon Lim" Outdoor Revival: "Adrift - Poon Lim survived 133 days at sea on a wooden raft" Factinate: "The Unbelievable Survival Story Of Poon Lim" Today I Found Out: "The Man on the Raft: The Story of Poon Lim" RECOIL OFFGRID: "Survival at Sea" Ships Nostalgia: "Benlomond survivor WWII" Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Have Europeans become desensitized to Moscow's actions? 2025 saw Moscow fly armed drones into Poland; aerial incursions in Estonia, Denmark, Finland, Norway, Germany, and The Netherlands; seaborne and subsurface reconnaissance and attacks on the seabeds of the Atlantic Ocean, North, Baltic, and Norwegian seas; numerous incidents of water poisoning in Germany; parcel bombs being sent through the courier system; propaganda, cyber, information attacks and disinformation campaigns across European outlets; armed military personnel crossing Europe's borders; power outages across European countries; and political interference in most elections. President Putin has been orchestrating campaigns of sabotage, subversion, and attacks on most European states for 12 months (and hence attacks against the global economy), as well as continuing his long conventional military campaign that seeks the end of Ukraine as a country. According to Keir Giles we can expect more of the same in 2026.

  Is it 1985 or 2026? Because the air in Chicago hasn't felt this electric since Coach Mike Ditka was roaming the sidelines in his famous sweater vest. Did you see Walter Payton :) I did in all those players. The smiles gave it away.  In this episode, I am breaking down the legendary Bears vs. Packers rivalry and how the city of Chicago has finally found its soul again.  For years, critics looked down on Caleb Williams questioning their style, his swagger and attitude, and whether he had the right "mojo" to lead any NFL team. Caleb Williams was treated like an fishing expensive lure that looks good on the shelf but can't catch a thing in rough water. But look at him now. We're diving into how the right mentorship has unlocked his potential.  It's a reminder that in football—and in fishing—you don't have to change your nature to succeed; you just need the right environment and a good mentor that understands you. When the city gets behind you and the right coaches believe in you, you stop playing "safe" and start playing like a legend. Same holds true in fishing.  We also explore why this rivalry brings out the absolute best in sports. While Chicago brings the urban grit, the Packers draw from the collective energy of the entire state of Wisconsin—a "small-town" force that fuels a global powerhouse. It's a clash of cultures and you gotta love that!  In this episode: The Culture Shift: Why Chicago finally feels like a "Ditka-era" football town again. Silencing the Doubters: How Caleb proved that with the right mentorship, you can be exactly who you are. State vs. City: How the Packers' statewide energy forces the Bears to elevate their game. The Fisherman's Perspective: Why the best Bears seasons—much like the best fishing trips—require patience, the right "fishing spot," and a whole lot of heart.

TWA Flight 800. July 17, 1996. JFK International Airport. Trans World Airlines Flight 800 was to takeoff for Paris, France at around 7pm EST. Various issues kept it from taking off until 8:19pm. Just 12 minutes into the flight, at 8:31pm, the plane exploded. Efforts were made to rescue anyone alive in the Atlantic Ocean from the destroyed Boeing 747, but none of the 230 passengers and crew had survived. Terrorism was suspected early on as the United States was facing threats at home and abroad. As the investigation continued, though, the evidence began to point to an issue with the plane itself.

A fascinating question arises in the case of a boy whose family travels across the International Date Line to celebrate his Bar-Misva. If, for example, the boy was born and raised in the U.S., and the family travels to Australia via the Pacific Ocean, they cross the Date Line during the trip, thus jumping one day ahead. The question becomes whether the boy becomes Bar-Misva on his birthday in Australia, or if he must wait another day, until it is his birthday back in the United States where he was born. Some Poskim maintain that in such a case, he indeed does not become a Bar-Misva until the next day. Since he moved ahead one day during his flight, the date in his current location does not determine his halachic status as a Bar-Misva. If, however, the family traveled to Australia eastward, such that they did not cross the International Date Line, then he becomes Bar-Misva once the date of his birthday arrives in Australia. In this case, he follows the date of his current location, even though his birthday has yet to arrive back home which is in a later time zone. This ruling would apply in the reverse case, as well, if an Australian boy travels to the U.S. for his Bar-Misva. If the family travels eastward, arriving in the U.S. via the Pacific Ocean, and thus having crossed the International Date Line and moving back one day, the boy becomes a Bar-Misva a day before the date of his birthday in the U.S., since this is the day of his Bar-Misva in Australia. If, however, the family traveled westward, reaching the U.S. via the Atlantic Ocean, then since he did not cross the Date Line, he does not become a Bar-Misva until the date of his birthday in the U.S. Rav Yosef Shalom Elyashiv (Jerusalem, 1910-2012) disagreed. He maintained that the boy becomes a Bar-Misva on the date of his birthday in his current location, and crossing the International Date Line has no effect on the timing of his becoming a halachic adult. This is the accepted Halacha. Another intriguing case, is that of a boy who crosses the Date Line on the day of his Bar-Misva, moving him back one day. In such a case, after becoming a Bar-Misva, the boy enters a region where his thirteenth birthday had not yet arrived. A number of Poskim, including Rav Haim Kanievsky, ruled that once a child becomes a Bar-Misva, there is no possibility of him losing this status and reverting to being a minor, and thus crossing the Date Line would not affect the boy's status in this case.

In Episode 579: Basque Country and Learning French After 50, host Annie Sargent chats with Deborah Pham Van Xua of Feel Good French for a lively chat about two things you'll love: the vibrant Basque Country and the joys of learning French later in life. Ever dreamed of exploring a region where lush green hills meet the Atlantic Ocean? Deborah, a proud native of Bayonne, takes us on a tour of her homeland. She shares the magic of Bayonne's famous festivals, the charm of Biarritz's beaches, and the hidden gems of Saint-Jean-de-Luz. You'll hear about the unique Basque architecture, the flavorful piment d'Espelette, and even the thrill of watching (or playing!) pelote Basque, a sport deeply rooted in local culture. Deborah's insider tips make this episode a must-listen for anyone planning a trip—or just dreaming of one. But this isn't just a travel guide. Deborah also runs Feel Good French, where she helps adults learn French without the stress. If you've ever thought, "I'm too old to learn a new language," think again! Deborah breaks down her simple, effective methods for picking up French after 50. She talks about shadowing techniques, setting realistic goals, and embracing mistakes.

Fighter Pilot Survival: Kegan Gill's Battle Beyond the Battlefield In this extraordinary episode, Marcus and Melanie meet with retired U.S. Navy Fighter Pilot Kegan Gill, whose story is nothing short of miraculous. Kegan survived a catastrophic ejection from his aircraft during a training mission over the Atlantic Ocean, where he ejected directly into the sound barrier. The injuries he sustained in that moment were severe enough to kill most people – his limbs torn apart and a traumatic brain injury among them. But Kegan's ordeal was only beginning. Plunged into the icy waters of the Atlantic with his parachute still attached, his wetsuit torn, and his arms unable to move, Kegan was forced to endure a two-hour battle with hypothermia as rescue teams raced to find him. Miraculously, his hypothermic state prevented fatal blood loss. Following this harrowing experience, Kegan faced months of grueling recovery, eventually achieving a perfect Physical Fitness Test score and returning to flight duty. However, Kegan's journey didn't end with physical recovery. He began experiencing severe psychotic episodes due to his brain injury, leading to a stint in a VA Mental Health Facility. Pharmaceutical treatments only worsened his symptoms, and he endured dehumanizing treatment from caregivers who misunderstood his unique needs. Now, Kegan is finding renewed hope through alternative treatments for brain health. Through the Warrior Angels Foundation, he has discovered the power of nutraceutical and hormonal interventions, offering a glimmer of healing. Beyond his personal health battles, Kegan is a dedicated father and husband, working tirelessly to support his young family. Join us as Kegan opens up about his incredible journey of survival, resilience, and healing. His story is as inspiring as it is shocking – a testament to human strength and the will to overcome even the darkest of circumstances. Tune in to hear a story of grit, determination, and the relentless pursuit of healing against all odds.  In This Episode You Will Hear: • When I was about 10 years old, my family had a friend that had a Cessna, and he took me up on this lawnmower with wings, and we went buzzing around, and it felt like a freakin' rocket ship. I absolutely loved being above the earth, and I felt so free. (6:36) • In May of 2012, I graduated as a winged aviator, and I got those wings pinned on my chest. (23:40) • [Marcus] It's an absolute transition into a different human being the minute those wings touch your chest. (24:02) • [In flight school] you showed up there, and you had your wings, and you thought you made it. They made it very clear you have not made anything yet. (26:40) • It just so happened on this day there was a 16 foot, 3,500 pound Great White Shark named Mary Lee directly under my airspace, and my buddy pointed out,  “Hey man, Today would be a terrible day to eject,” and an hour after having that conversation, I found myself out on what turned into a pretty freaking wild experience. (36:23) • [Melanie] Q: Is it common to eject?”  [Keegan] A: It happens more than you hear about in the news. We lose a few naval fighter jets every year to mishaps. (37:16) • When you show up at flight school, they say “Look to your left and look to your right. One of you is gonna have a serious mishap or be dead choosing this job. Are you sure you wanna be here?” (37:49) • You think you're invincible, and you don't really think anything of it. (38:04) • Keegan tells the detailed story of that fateful day. (Starting at 41:21) • When I punched out, I got the initial blast from the ejection seat, and then immediately impacted the sound barrier with my body. At that speed, the human body is not aerodynamic. (50:58) • The aircraft impacted the water so fast, it just vaporized. (52:50) • They ended up wheeling me in, and treated me for severe hyperthermia. They took my core body temperature. I was at 87 degrees. [Marcus] “That should've killed you.” (60:13) • One of the more senior guys takes me into his office and he goes: “Congratulations, Lieutenant Gill. If you can figure out how to get your body working again, we'll get you back in a Super Hornet. (68:14) • My brain was just not working the way it was supposed to from TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury). (75:04) • I had a deep sense of betrayal from all that thought I had served. To see the treatment, it seemed like everything I was fighting for was a joke. (89:53) • I've had a number of psychedelic-assisted therapies that have been really helpful. (95:54) • Ibogaine has been studied pretty thoroughly at this point. It's showing that it triggers neuro-regeneration.

"In the fall of 1620, the Mayflower embarked on a 3,000-mile journey across the Atlantic Ocean. Over the next nine weeks, its passengers and crew battled fierce storms and rampant illness. They had left England dangerously late in the season, and provisions ran low. In the ship's cramped cabins, the Puritan Separatists shared close quarters with a group known as “Strangers” who did not share their tight bonds or religious beliefs. When strong gales blew the ship off course, tensions between the Puritans and the Strangers exploded, threatening to tear the colony apart before they even set foot in the New World.Be the first to know about Wondery's newest podcasts, curated recommendations, and more!
