Podcasts about Basque

There's a certain ache in the bones—no, more like pain behind the eyes brought on by fatigue with the world—that overtakes a man when he's gone too long without talking about etymology. We here at The Remnant have been feeling that deeply, and we know you have too. That's why Jonah Goldberg is sitting down with fellow word nerd Colin Gorrie to talk about everything he's ever wanted to know about language. Jonah and Colin cover Old English dialects, prescriptive vs. descriptive, the world's biggest language, Latinization, early dictionaries, class, accents, linguistic hygiene, the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis, metaphors, the euphemism treadmill, borrowed words, Shakespearean coinages, Australian English, gender in language, Basque, and the hardest European language to learn.  Show Notes: —Colin's Substack —Colin speaking Old English  —John McWhorter Remnant —Paul Bloom - Just Babies: The Origins of Good and Evil —George Lakoff and Mark Johnson - Metaphors We Live By The Remnant is a production of ⁠The Dispatch⁠, a digital media company covering politics, policy, and culture from a nonpartisan perspective.

The Basque people live between Spain and France, but their blood matches no one else in Europe. One in three carries Rh-negative blood, a rare trait that turns pregnancy into a genetic gamble. Their language, Euskera, has no relatives anywhere on Earth. Linguists have searched every continent and found nothing that connects it to another tongue. The Basques say their ancestors came from a lost island called Atlaintika, destroyed thousands of years ago. Plato told almost the same story, about a civilization called Atlantis that vanished beneath the sea in a single night. A 2,000-year-old bronze hand found in Spain carries a word modern Basque speakers can still read on sight. What that word protected, and why it mattered enough to survive a dictatorship, ties an ancient legend to the blood in Basque veins today. Learn more about your ad choices.

A colony built on cod: We follow how the massive seasonal fishing industry of the 1500s, with its intense competition among Spanish, English, French, Basque, & Portuguese mariners in the frigid North Atlantic waters off of Newfoundland, eventually went ashore and began to construct year-round “plantations” around coves on the rugged shoreline, usually without state involvement or approval. We observe how planters, migratory fishermen, and aristocratic proprietors vied for control of the makeshift colonies in Newfoundland, leading to the emergence of a free-wheeling and hard-drinking colonial society, and ultimtately, to a cataclysmic war between France and England for control of the world's richest fishing grounds.

« Agissez comme si tout ne dépendait que de vous, priez comme si tout ne dépendait que de Dieu » : des mots de saint Ignace, sorte de maxime, qui en disent beaucoup sur ce Basque espagnol du XVIe siècle, gentilhomme converti grâce à une blessure de guerre. De Jérusalem à Paris, il discerne sa mission. Une vocation fructueuse : il engendrera la Compagnie de Jésus, les Jésuites, et écriera des " Exercices spirituels ", une méthode de discernement toujours utilisée. Son oeuvre « Ad majorem Dei gloriam » (à la plus grande gloire de Dieu) - devise de la Compagnie- est à approfondir au regard de l'homme qui s'y donna, sur ce plateau de Régis Burnet. Emission du 5 juin 2011.

Ezpeletar comme on en fait peu, Peio grandit à la ferme avec ses parents et ses 3 petites sœurs. Attiré par les sports locaux, à savoir la pelote et le foot, il s'essaie au rugby à l'adolescence sous l'impulsion de son professeur, contre la volonté de son papa !Faisant ses débuts à Cambo, il s'engage l'année suivante à l'Aviron Bayonnais et y évolue bientôt en équipe première.Il y jouera pendant près de 2 décennies, devenant une référence internationale à son poste : et pour cause, puisqu'il remportera le Grand Chelem 1981 avec ses coéquipiers du XV de France.Raccrochant les crampons en 1988, il s'est alors consacré à son bar/restaurant le bien nommé "Chez Doxpi", devenu au fil des ans une institution à Espelette.Curieux comme pas deux, Peio a toujours entrepris, menant à bien divers projets dans des domaines très différents : il a par exemple rempli Bercy à l'occasion de concours de force Basque, organisé de nombreuses compétitions de pelote Basque, été président de l'Aviron Bayonnais, élevé des toros, et même chanté à l'Olympia ou en Nouvelle Zélande.Véritable force de la nature, Peio a pourtant trop souvent frappé par des drames, mais a su se relever et fait montre d'un optimisme à tout épreuve.Vous allez le découvrir, son parcours ne ressemble vraiment à aucun autre, et j'ai adoré passer ce long moment avec ce personnage hors du commun.Bonne écoute !-----------------------------

This is the story of my rock and roll butler. Welcome to the Rock and Roll Geek Show. 00:00:24 My name is Michael Butler. Thanks a lot for joining me. I really appreciate it. 00:00:27 Today is Tuesday, the 14th of July and it is 8.35, I’m doing this, 8.35 p.m. 00:00:36 We are in, where are we, Evans, Evans, Evans, Evans, Evans, uh, Evans, Evans, somewhere in Wyoming. We’re in Wyoming at a place called, Evanson, somewhere, somewhere in Wyoming. At a place called Highway 30 Tavern. 00:01:03 There are the all-star games going on right now. I had no idea the all-star game was happening. There are, it’s kind of a dive bar, yeah it’s pretty much a dive bar but they do serve food so we ordered some wings. 00:01:17 We got a cup, we’re drinking a fine Corona, an undisclosed person and cheers. Cheers. Beautiful undisclosed person, do you feel like introducing yourself or do you still want to stay undisclosed? 00:01:33 Introduce myself. Do you want to give your name or do you want to stay undisclosed? I like to stay undisclosed. 00:01:38 We’ll call her, um, Legit. We’re going to call you Legit. I prefer Raquel. 00:01:47 Alright, Raquel. Raquel is the undisclosed person. We just ordered two Coronas. I’m going to make this short because I’m not going to stay here all night and do a podcast 00:01:55 but we drove, what did we do? We stayed in Winnemucca last night and drove to Elko, Nevada, ate at a Basque restaurant, pretty good Basque lunch, apparently there’s a big Basque population in Elko, Nevada. I think there is in Winnemucca as well. We looked for a dive bar last night and we walked around, we were a little bit afraid 00:02:23 walking in the dark but we managed to make it back alive. The first place we were going to go to was the Butch Cassidy Hole in the Wall, Butch Cassidy Waterhole in the Wall, something like that. It looked shitty, it had fluorescent lights, so we said, ah, we’ll look for somewhere else, maybe we’ll go to the casino and on the way to the casino we found the perfect dive bar. 00:02:45 I don’t remember what it was called, do you remember what it was called? Something tap room, but they didn’t have any tap, oh, the Cheers Tap Room, but there was no tap, it was just a dive bar. That was a really good dive bar, so we had a good time, we had a few drinks and then came back to the room, left this morning and stopped in Elko, Nevada, had lunch, where we parked there was a strip club, it said, I forget what the name of it was, but it said Dancing and Diddling, and we’re like, what’s diddling, I don’t know what that means, I 00:03:25 know what diddling means, it means, isn’t diddling when you put your finger down there on the girl and you mess around with her, and I said, oh, huh, okay, it’s a joke, then I looked to the left and there’s a legal brothel right across the street and then there’s an Asian legal brothel right next to that, one was called Ann’s, what was it called, Mona’s what, Mona’s Dollhouse or something like that, Mona’s Ranch, and then there was Anna’s Ranch, 00:03:59 one had Chinese lanterns hanging out of it, hanging outside, and the other one didn’t. So there were two brothels, then we walked over to have a nice basket lunch and got back on the road and here we are in Evans something Wyoming, moving right along in the Penske truck, friends, I don’t think I got any donations, I haven’t looked at the Venmo, but if you care to contribute, it would be much appreciated, I’m hoping to meet with Ken Grossman tomorrow, I’m not positive where we’re gonna be driving through, I thought I was gonna be driving 00:04:36 through Boulder, Colorado, and I have to check, if I am, I’m gonna meet up with Ken Grossman, I don’t know if I’ve ever met in person, if not we’re gonna head up towards Chicago that way, I don’t know, but look at the map and if I’m on that way friends, hit me up, I would love to meet you for a beer or stay on your couch or just to have some food, whatever, or we just shake hands, you can call me an asshole to my face and you can take a look at beautiful Raquel, the undisclosed travel companion. All right friends, that’s gonna do it, I’m gonna close out with a song sent to me, we’re doing all road songs, we are doing all road songs on this trip, 00:05:19 Kirk Crawford sent me a song, he said Michael Attach is one of my favorite Alvin Lee songs, from a solo album he did in 1973 while still leading 10 years after, and he did it with a country rock singer named Mylon Lefevre, all kinds of British rockers guest appeared on this album, including George Harrison, Steve Winwood, Ron Wood, Mick Fleetwood, among others. Anyway, you may not want to play it on the show as the chorus refrain of the song is, I’m on the road to freedom, on the road to love, that kind of fits, regardless it’s a great song written solely by Alvin and he sings lead and plays all the guitar parts, safe travels. All 00:05:59 right, for you Kirk Crawford, I’m gonna play some Alvin Lee, thank you for listening friends, rockandrollgeek.com is where you can find the show, send me an email rockandrollgeek at gmail.com, hit the donate button at rockandrollgeek.com, all the ways you can contribute to the show, if you get any value out of this, if you don’t, don’t contribute anything, and you can find me on the Facebook rnrgeek, happy birthday Adam Gerstein, friend of the show, he’s what, is he 35 today, probably something like that, find me on the Instagram rockandrollgeek, 00:06:33 don’t ask, find me on the Twitter rnrgeek, and say goodbye, goodbye, Rock Hill, goodbye, and she doesn’t really quite talk, all right I’ll talk to you later friends, here’s Alvin Lee, I’ll talk to you tomorrow.The post Road Trip in Penske Truck – Day 2 first appeared on The Rock and Roll Geek Show.

If Part 1 was about who the Basque people are, Part 2 is about how they celebrate. Edgar Carranza is back to walk us through the food and drink culture that comes alive at Basque festivals — including kalimotxo, a drink with an origin story that genuinely made me lose it, and the bocata tradition that feeds the cuadrillas who show up every year for their town festivities.We also get into the great Basque cheesecake conversation — where it comes from, why Bilbao has feelings about San Sebastián getting all the credit, and what makes that burnt, creamy, slightly chaotic cake so different from anything else. From there, Edgar explains txoko gastronomic societies: private spaces where Basques have been gathering to cook, eat, and preserve their culinary traditions for generations — and why they might be part of the reason the Basque Country has more Michelin stars per capita than anywhere else in the world.This one ends with big feelings about food, home, and what it means to eat somewhere that is truly yours.

L'élimination de la France hier soir contre L'Espagne en demi-finale de Coupe du monde marque la fin d'une ère : 14 années passéees à la tête de la sélection tricolore pour Didier Deschamps. Entre juillet 2012 et juillet 2026, l'ancien capitaine français aura guidé son équipe vers quatre derniers carrés de Coupe du Monde et Euro avec le sacre de 2018 en point d'orgue. Si statistiquement, en palmarès comme en longévité, le Basque semble tout en haut au panthéon des sélectionneurs français, dans l'impression, son approche très pragmatique a souvent été discutée. Après un Mondial marqué par un jeu plus offensif et spectaculaire, l'élimination contre l'Espagne a remis Deschamps au centre des critiques et responsabilités. Alors quel bilan pour DD ? L'équipe du WFC fait le point !Aussi, à retrouver dans cette vidéo : la preview d'Angleterre - Argentine, l'autre demi-finale de cette Coupe du Monde 2026 ! Une rivalité exacerbée dans le football des sélections pour un morceau d'Histoire ? Emmenée par Messi, l'Argentine a-t-elle les capacités d'aller chercher une 4ème étoile ? les Three Lions, eux peuvent-ils vaincre le signe indien et mettre fin à 60 ans sans sacre ?Ce podcast est hébergé par Podcastics, la plateforme pour créer et diffuser votre podcast facilement.

The Andoni Iraola era at Anfield has officially begun!

2026 marks the centenary of Ernest Hemingway's novel ‘The Sun also Rises', which brought Pamplona's San Fermín festival international fame. Yet beyond its place in Hemingway's iconic novel and the yearly international news reports of tourists injured or even dying in the running of the bulls, the fiestas of San Fermín has also served as a symbolic battleground in Navarre's unresolved identity conflict. As the capital of Navarre, Pamplona sits at the intersection of two competing national projects: Basque nationalists regard the region as an inseparable part of the historic Basque homeland, while Navarrese regionalists and Spanish unionists insist on Navarre's distinct political identity and institutions. Every July, those rival visions spill into the festival through disputes over flags, language, official ceremonies and the public symbolism of the encierro. Today on Sobremesa Podcast we look to go beyond the cliches and instagram posts generated around Sanfermin and look at its deeper cultural, historical and political significance. To do so, I am joined once again by Tulane University's Brittany Kennedy - an expert in Basque culture. If you like what we are producing and want to keep the podcast sustainable, please consider donating to our buy me a coffee page. The link is the show notes. Okay, I hope you enjoy my interview with Brittany.

Liverpool has sent shockwaves through the Premier League yet again. Just twelve months after lifting their 20th league title under Arne Slot, a catastrophic second-season collapse has led to Slot's dismissal and the high-profile appointment of Basque tactical mastermind Andoni Iraola. To make matters even more dramatic, the new boss inherits a squad completely stripped of its iconic talisman.In this episode, we unpack the massive tactical and cultural shift taking place at Anfield:How a historic title-winning debut campaign completely unraveled during a torrid autumn collapse, prompting Sporting Director Richard Hughes to pull the trigger. Breaking down Mohamed Salah's dramatic free-agent exit following his public fallout with Slot. We look back at his legendary legacy—257 goals, 442 appearances, and Liverpool's all-time Premier League assist record—and his decision to delay his next club announcement until after the World Cup.Why Richard Hughes reunited with his former Bournemouth manager, betting on Iraola's fearless, high-pressing, front-footed football to re-energize the Anfield faithful.Analyzing how Liverpool plans to replace the irreplaceable, with the club already heavily linked to RB Leipzig's Yan Diomande and PSG's Bradley Barcola.Tune in as we debate whether Iraola's brilliant overachievements on the south coast can scale to the immense pressures of Anfield, and how he plans to reconstruct a legendary frontline from scratch.

Sauce Béarnaise: The Classic French Sauce That Isn't From Béarn | Food Tour de FranceSauce béarnaise — one of the great sauces of classical French cuisine, named after the Béarn region of the southwest and associated with the city of Pau — was not actually created in Béarn at all. Today's Food Tour de France episode finishes in Pau and tells the full and rather wonderful story of a sauce invented in Saint-Germain-en-Laye, just outside Paris, by a chef called Jean-Louis-François Collinet who looked up at a bust of Henri IV on the wall — the king who was born in Pau — and named his accidental creation after the king's hometown on the spot. A hot emulsified sauce of clarified butter, egg yolks, shallots, tarragon and chervil that became one of the defining preparations of French gastronomy. Named after a place it has nothing to do with. Which is, in French food history, not even slightly unusual.The episode covers the full origin story of béarnaise — the failed shallot reduction that became a classic, the involvement of Alexandre Dumas as possible co-inventor, the specific role of tarragon that makes béarnaise béarnaise and nothing else — and the technique that Fernand Point, whose episode we covered earlier in the main Fabulously Delicious series, described with characteristic precision. A béarnaise, he said, is nothing but an egg yolk, a shallot and a little tarragon — but it takes years of practice before the result is perfect. The episode also covers the small family of derivatives that béarnaise has spawned — sauce Choron with tomato, sauce Foyot with meat glaze, and the sauce paloise of the Basque country, where mint replaces the tarragon and the result is served with lamb.The Food Tour de France is a daily series running alongside the 2026 Tour de France on Fabulously Delicious — one episode for every stage start and finish. Pau gets two episodes in the series — yesterday's garbure episode covered the great slow-cooked cabbage and duck stew of the Gascon tradition, and today the béarnaise completes the picture of a city whose name is attached to two of the most celebrated things in French food culture — one of which it actually produced, and one of which it definitely did not.

Episode 200: The Long Arc of Witch Hunts—From Connecticut to a Global CrisisThe Thing About Witch Hunts: We mark episode 200 by tracing the full arc of witch hunts from ancient prosecutions to early modern demonology, colonial New England, and today's escalating global violence. We begin with Connecticut's executions—starting with Alice Young in 1647—and the 2023 resolution absolving the indicted victims, then widen out through England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland, the Basque country, Sweden, and Salem, emphasizing how courts, texts, and laws shaped prosecutions and how “hysteria” does not accurately describe these bureaucratic trials. We connect historic concepts like the diabolical pact, the sabbath, and “crimen exceptum” to modern accusations, banishment, torture, and killings across at least sixty nations, citing UN-documented violence, Ghana's Akua Denteh, and contradictory legal responses. We center survivors and the accused as people, invite action, and point listeners to endwitchhunts.org and World Day Against Witch Hunts (August 10).Thank you to the 175 guests who have appeared on the podcast and to all who have viewed or listened to The Thing About Witch Hunts.

The Basque Country sits between Spain and France, but it doesn't fully belong to either — and that's kind of the whole point. In this episode, I sit down with Edgar Karranza, a Bilbao-area native currently living in Almaty, for my first-ever in-person podcast interview. Over a very good bottle of wine, we dig into what it actually means to be Basque — the deep roots, the fierce community identity, and a language called Euskera that has no known relatives anywhere in the world.From there, we get into the food. Edgar walks us through the foundational flavors of Basque cuisine — bacalao (and why that word is Basque, not Spanish), chipirones en su tinta, chuleta grilled over open fire, and the cider culture that shapes how Basques gather and eat together. We spend a good amount of time on pintxos — not just what they are, but the entire social ritual around pintxo pote Thursdays, the txikiteo tradition in Bilbao, and why food in the Basque Country is never just about eating.This is Part 1. Part 2 covers Basque cheesecake, txoko gastronomic societies, the Michelin star legacy, and Edgar's last meal.

Miriam Gonzaléz Durantéz is a force, and Claire loved cooking with her for this episode of 5 O' Clock Apron Podcast. Worth noting here that Claire is keen to get the elephant in the room over with as soon as Claire and Miriam start cooking in Miriam's immaculate London kitchen with Claire quizzing Miriam on her title of Lady Clegg. Miriam is quick to dismiss the title, with characteristic grace, as one she doesn't necessarily identify with, saying it was given to her, because she is the wife of Nick Clegg. Clegg being the one-time deputy prime minister for the U.K. Miriam is a busy woman with a distinguished career to showcase, splitting her week between London and Madrid. An international lawyer, founder of the charity Inspiring Girls and, just as pressing, now shouldering a new responsibility of politician. When Claire and Miriam meet to cook and record this episode, Miriam is in the midst of setting up a new political party in Spain (she can't say the name of the party at the time of the recording), aiming, she tells Claire; “to stop the country from going further right” and as Miriam says; “I've been involved in politics all my life, now is the time for me to stand up”. For the episode, Miriam cooks a Basque tuna stew called Marmitako, clearly an intuitive and skilled cook, she is also quick to hold Claire to account during much of the cooking process; “no Claire, your peppers need to be thinner” and “no, Claire,this is how you prepare the potato, you need to do it like this and you need to listen for the crack as you cut the potato”. Claire is enthralled throughout, because this, in a nutshell, is what this podcast is all about. Food and cookery knowledge shared through the prism of good conversation, two people cooking side by side, chopping and chatting about why a recipe means so much to them, and how it fits into their lives. Miriam's stew is undoubtedly delicious, as the cooking is wrapped up, husband Nick walks into the kitchen introducing himself, meanwhile Miriam's son waits patiently to eat the dish his mum has just cooked; “he's always so hungry, he eats all the time, teenage boys” she says with a chuckle. Conscious of the clock, Claire makes tracks to leave, after all Miriam, has got a lot to do, a plane to catch, a country to run and so on and so on…. Miriam's Marmitako, Basque Tuna Stew  Serves 4  500g fresh tuna, cut into large chunks 2 tbsp plain flour 2 peppers, green, red or yellow  2 onions, finely sliced  3 garlic cloves Small bunch of parsley  200mls dry white wine 1kg waxy potatoes, peeled   Salt and pepper, to taste Olive oil, quite a bit to fry tuna and shallow fry the potatoes    1. Dust the pieces of tuna all over with the flour and season well with salt and pepper. 2. In a large pan, add 3 tbsp of olive oil and fry the onions and the peppers over a moderate heat until softened, around 10 minutes. Push the onions and peppers to one side of the pan, add a splash more olive oil and fry the pieces of tuna to get a little golden in colour, but not cook all the way through, though this will depend on the thickness of the tuna. Remove the pan from the heat and keep to one side.  3. Use a pestle and mortar or use a small food processor or blender to blend the garlic, parsley and white wine together. Keep to one side.  4. Use a small saucepan and fill 1/3 with olive oil (working in batches and using a smaller pan will help you to use less oil). Use a small knife to make small, sharp indentations in the potatoes and “crack off” small pieces of the potato, about the size of a shell on walnut is a good approximation. This is Miriam's way, and she suggests preparing the potatoes likes this gives them a better texture once cooked, see reel for video explanation. Fry the potatoes in hot oil at 180C until nicely coloured and nearly cooked through. 5. Put the tuna, onions and peppers back on the heat, add the parsley, garlic and wine mix and add the fried potatoes, mixing gently to combine. Bring the pan up to the boil and simmer for 30 seconds. Put a lid on the pan and reduce the heat to moderate – low and continue cooking until the potatoes are soft, the tuna will be cooked through. 6. Remove from the heat, check the seasoning and serve.

What does it take to quit the comfort of Sydney's eastern suburbs, pack a single bag, and talk your way into one of the world's best restaurants, without speaking the language? For Remy Davis, it just takes curiosity, the right contacts, and a willingness to scrub stairs with a metal scourer until you've earned your spot at the fire. In this wide-ranging conversation with Tawnya, Remy traces his journey from shucking oysters at Otto in Woolloomooloo to grilling €600-a-kilo turbot at Elkano in Spain's Basque Country, to cooking for a fully booked Bessie's in Surry Hills, with stints across London, Italy, and a full year in San Sebastián along the way. Three passports. Countless kitchens. Zero recipes (more on that later). He's back in Australia now, buzzing with optimism about Sydney's evolving dining scene, and sitting on something exciting he's just not ready to reveal yet. This is a chef who backs himself and has the passport stamps to prove it. Key Takeaways On backing yourself: "Why not me?" Remy's answer to imposter syndrome is simple: back yourself and take the leap. On Elkano's no-recipe kitchen: Expecting secret formulas, Remy instead found a culture built on intuition, craftsmanship and not a recipe in sight. On produce philosophy: Spain's markets taught him that great produce starts with people who dedicate their lives to mastering a craft. On kitchen culture: Skills can be taught. Curiosity, respect and work ethic matter most. On travel as a career strategy: Passports help, but curiosity is what opens doors. His advice? Get out and cook somewhere new. On Australia's dining scene: Diners are seeking experiences, not just meals. The venues succeeding are delivering genuine value and connection. About Remy Davis Remy Davis is a Sydney-based chef with stints in London, Italy, and Spain's Basque Country under his belt, including a formative year at Elkano, one of the world's most revered fish restaurants. He completed his culinary training at TAFE Ultimo and cut his teeth at Otto on the Woolloomooloo wharf before heading overseas to work in Michelin-calibre kitchens. Back in Australia, he was the chef behind the opening menu at Bessie's in Surry Hills, and most recently cooked at Fire Kitchen as part of Vivid Sydney. He's currently working on an unannounced project in Australia at the intersection of food and art. Watch this space.

Ahmed Eldin | 12 June 2026 This article is reproduced from Ahmed Eldin's Substack (https://ahmedeldin.substack.com/p/spanish-police-beat-global-sumud) with thanks. We note that the relationship between Israeli and western security forces is a circular one. The brutal beating of flotilla activists in Bilbao highlights the deep interconnections between the state institutions of western powers and those of their zionist proxy, which has become the ‘global specialist' in terroristic policing methods. Basque police beating Israeli torture survivors is institutional. These are the same cops who've taken €1.6m in Israeli security contracts, been trained by former Mossad agents, and equipped with Israeli surveillance tech. ---------------------------------------------- Subscribe!

Jeremy Lent (author, systems thinker) is a leading authority on civilisations and has just created a manifesto on how to shift from the current crumbling one to what he calls an Ecocivilization. He joins me to discuss how we can actually get there, drawing on real-life, tangible examples and a bunch of concepts that tend to get people excited. In this chat, we cover: fractal flourishing, phase transition, mutually beneficial symbiosis and the Basque self-governing cooperative Mondragón.Jeremy is the founder of the Deep Transformation Network, an online discussion community, and convenes the Ecocivilization Coalition. He has been described by George Monbiot as “one of the greatest thinkers of our age”. Lent's latest book, Ecocivilization: Making a World that Works for All, follows two previous award-winning books, The Patterning Instinct and The Web of Meaning.SHOW NOTESYou can learn more about Jeremy Lent's work via his website.Get your copy of his book Ecocivilization: Making a World that Works for All here. ---Watch on YouTube or SubstackIf you need to know a bit more about me… head to my "about" pageFor more such conversations, subscribe to my Substack newsletter, it's where I interact the most!Let's connect on Instagram Hosted on Acast.

The economy was designed to serve life. At some point, it forgot. This article traces how that happened - through colonial extraction, currency manipulation, and centuries of treating the Earth as an inexhaustible resource - and more importantly, what is already being built in its place. It is also worth naming what is being built against it. Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDC), digital identity systems, and the broader technocratic agenda advancing through institutions like the World Economic Forum represent a competing vision of the future - one where economic participation is surveilled, programmable, and ultimately controlled by the few. That is not a regenerative economy. It is the extractive economy in a new interface. The regenerative economy moves in the opposite direction: toward decentralization, sovereignty, reciprocity, and life. From Time Banks in New York to community currencies in Ecuador to worker cooperatives in Spain, it is not a future vision. It is a present reality, waiting to be joined. And while blockchain and regenerative finance are real and important parts of this picture, the regenerative economy is bigger than any single technology. It is a whole-systems redesign - cultural, spiritual, and practical - of how human beings relate to value, to each other, and to all living beings on Earth.A System Feature | Designed to ExtractA president steps up to the podium in Manila, praising the economic progress their country has fulfilled after, what many of us call “ the plandemic”. Outside the auditorium, a young mother carries her child on her hip, knocking on car windows at a red light, eyes down, asking for alms. The applause inside the hall doesn't reach her. It never does.The president says the currency has strengthened. That prices are coming down. Meanwhile, across the city, a farmer named Rodrigo is standing in the field he has worked for thirty years, calculating whether this harvest will cover the loan he took out before the last typhoon swept his crop away. It didn't. This is not an exception to the economic system. It is a feature of it. A reflection of a culture that does not care about those actually in need.Many nations measure their health through GDP - Gross Domestic Product - which essentially dictates whether or not an economy is “progressing.” It runs under one quiet assumption: that the Earth will keep giving. Indefinitely. Without asking anything in return. That before the calculations around supply, demand, and the balance of everything else, all the raw materials are already ideally supplied.The Earth is answering. Typhoons that once came once a generation now arrive like clockwork. Harvests that fed communities for centuries are failing across the Andes, the Sahel, the Mekong delta. The seasons that indigenous peoples read as living calendars have become erratic, unreliable, grieving. None of this is random. It is a response - accurate and proportional - to an economy built on the assumption that extraction has no cost.If we were truly “abundant” financially, we would not have billions of people at risk of starvation, homelessness, and other manifestations of neglect and poverty. The economy was supposed to serve all life. It has forgotten this. And in forgetting it, it has begun to abandon human life itself.The Story We InheritedMoney was supposed to be a promissory note for the gold reserves one actually held. The paper was a symbol - pointing at something real, something held in a vault somewhere, something that could be touched.Then the notes began circulating. And the longer they circulated, the more people forgot what they were pointing to. Eventually, the circulation gave rise to the idea of turning the notes into currency itself. The symbol became the standard. It became backed not by gold, but by story - a story so strong, so repeated, so programmed into every transaction of daily life, that we began to mistake it for the truth.We placed a middleman between ourselves and our needs. And somewhere along the way, we forgot we had done it. Perhaps, by design. Here is what the story never tells you: the gold itself did not arrive innocently.In 1302, Pope Boniface VIII issued Unam Sanctam, declaring papal authority supreme over all earthly power - making the Earth itself, philosophically, ownable. A century and a half later, that claim became economic policy. Dum Diversas (1452) authorized the enslavement of non-Christians across the globe. Romanus Pontifex (1455) granted Portugal the right to colonize and extract across Africa and the New World. Inter Caetera (1493) extended the same to Spain and the Americas.These were the founding economic legislation of the extractive world we live in - all cloaked in religious language.What followed was centuries of forced extraction. Economists Flynn and Giráldez have documented that colonial American silver - mined through indigenous forced labor in Potosí and across Peru and Mexico - became the standard monetary foundation of early global trade. The gold in the vault was never simply there. It was coercively taken.And then, on August 15, 1971, even that material trace was erased. President Nixon closed the gold window, ending the Bretton Woods system and severing the dollar's convertibility to gold. According to the Federal Reserve's own record, the international community was not consulted. From that moment, currency was backed by nothing but the authority of the government printing it.Knowing that we wrote ourselves into this story, we are now remembering that we can write ourselves out of it. Not only by writing new stories, but by reconnecting with stories that existed long before our current economic situation - stories that are still alive, still practiced, still remembered by the communities that never abandoned them.What Has Always WorkedBefore the conquest of certain nations to centralize power into their hands, other societies practiced more communal and regenerative ways of exchanging value. To them, considering other people and the Earth itself was not an ethical add-on. It was integral to the flourishing of their economies.Pre-colonial PhilippinesLong before the Spaniards arrived, the Philippine archipelago was a major hub in the maritime Silk Road - one of Asia's most active trade networks. Communities exchanged with Chinese, Japanese, Arab, and Indian traders at coastal ports and river settlements.The archipelagic geography made it impossible to consolidate wealth in any single place. Different tribes like the Maranao exchanged surplus agricultural produce, textiles, metalware, and forest products through robust barter systems built on kinship ties and alliances among polities. Value moved between two people who chose to relate. No middleman. Mutual trust was the economic infrastructure.Andean PeoplesThe Quechua people organized their economy around a relational foundation that lives in the language itself. Ayni - sacred reciprocity. Minka - collective community work. Randi-Randi - generalized reciprocity, the understanding that what circulates returns. All three connect to the broader principle of Sumak Kawsay: good living in right relationship with community, land, and the living world.Sumak Kawsay does not separate prosperity from the wellbeing of ecosystems. It understands them as one thing. This recognition runs so deep that Ecuador enshrined it as the central guiding principle for its national development in its 2008 constitution - the living legal inheritance of an ancient economy that knew how to stay.Haudenosaunee in North AmericaIn their 1981 formal statement to the United Nations, the Haudenosaunee Council of Chiefs articulated what their communities had practiced for centuries: that the earth was created for all to use, forever - not for the present generation to exhaust. Under their law, land is held by the women of each clan, who farm and care for it for the benefit of future generations.The Haudenosaunee saw land as a responsibility to be stewarded in trust. Anthropologist Kurt Jordan from Cornell University documented their economic practices and described them as “a reasonably sustainable, localized economy” even under intense external pressure. They had embodied communal stewardship long before theories about such things were written down.Southern Africa“I am because we are.”This is Ubuntu - the philosophy at the core of both social and economic life across Southern Africa. Communities in South Africa and Mozambique relied on mutual aid networks, intergenerational knowledge systems, and participatory rituals as practical economic infrastructure. These systems enhanced community cohesion and collective resilience precisely in the moments when extractive economies failed them. They understood, bone-deep, that no human being thrives in isolation.Diversity of Regen Economic SystemsMany communities across continents are actively rebuilding economic systems beyond the extractive model. The following are not theoretical. They are actively running. Hence, the more diversity of economic systems each person and community practices, the more abundant, unbreakable and independent we are from degenerative systems from governments and corporations that want to control it all. The Commons FoundationOne body of research forms the intellectual foundation for nearly all of them: the life's work of Elinor Ostrom, the first woman to receive the Nobel Prize in Economics. Ostrom spent decades documenting over 800 cases of communities successfully governing shared resources - in Switzerland, Kenya, Guatemala, Nepal, and beyond - without either privatization or state control.Her conclusion was simple and radical: communities do not inevitably destroy what they share. Given the right institutional design, they protect it and pass this duty to the next generation. And her eight design principles for successful commons governance - the framework that emerged from all that fieldwork - describe, as she herself acknowledged, the same governance systems that indigenous communities had been practicing for centuries.Her work is not a new idea. It is a confirmation of ancient ones.Regenerative Economics | Beyond ReFi - The Whole-Systems VisionWhen most people first encounter the term “regenerative economy,” they arrive through crypto. Through ReFi - regenerative finance - and the promise of blockchain as a tool for funding ecological restoration, decentralizing power, and making impact transparent. These are real contributions. They matter.But John Fullerton, founder of the Capital Institute and one of the most rigorous thinkers in this field, spent two decades on Wall Street before arriving at a different and more fundamental question: what if the entire framework of modern finance is running in conflict with how life actually works?Fullerton's work focuses on building an economic framework that supports the long-term health of people, communities, and the planet - not by tweaking the existing system, but by replacing its underlying logic. His core argument is that we are running our society in conflict with the patterns and principles that explain how life works.His answer is what he calls regenerative economics: eight principles drawn from living systems science that describe how healthy economies - like healthy ecosystems - actually function. Diversity. Balance. Circular flow. Robust circulation. Surplus financial capital, in his framework, needs to be recycled and regenerated into other forms of capital - natural, social, and cultural. Not hoarded nor extracted. Composted back into the living system that produced it.ReFi, in Fullerton's framing, is one tool within this larger architecture. Blockchain can decentralize power. Tokenized nature credits can make ecological value legible to markets. Community currencies can circulate value locally. But the technology is only as regenerative as the values underneath it. A crypto project built on extraction logic is still extraction, regardless of the chain it runs on.Regenerative economy is not a financial product. It is a civilizational shift - in how we measure wealth, in what we decide to protect, in whose voices count when decisions are made. ReFi is welcome in that shift. It is one current in a much larger river.Time BanksIn Jackson Heights, Queens, a retired nurse named Gloria hasn't touched the formal economy in months for the things that matter most to her. She spends three hours teaching English to a recent immigrant. Those hours become credits. She spends them on home repairs from a neighbor who knows carpentry. He spends his credits on childcare. The loop keeps moving.This is a Time Bank - a community exchange system built on one radical premise: everyone's time is worth the same. One hour of legal advice equals one hour of gardening equals one hour of emotional support. The hierarchy of market wages disappears. What remains is a web of people who need each other.Edgar Cahn, who developed Time Banking in the 1980s after surviving a near-fatal heart attack, called it “co-production” - the idea that the economy needs what the market can never price: care, community, civic participation, the work of raising children and holding elders. Time Banks make that invisible labor visible, and circulate it back into the community that produced it.Today there are over 500 Time Banks operating in more than 30 countries. Some have formalized into neighborhood institutions. Others run through apps. All of them rest on the same foundation the Quechua called Ayni - sacred reciprocity - translated into the language of modern urban life.Mondragon CorporationThe Mondragon Corporation in Spain's Basque region remains the most studied proof that democratic ownership functions at scale. Founded by six worker-owners in 1956, it now comprises 96 cooperatives employing over 70,000 people, with annual revenues exceeding €11 billion. Workers own the company collectively, vote on strategy at general assemblies, and operate under a constitutionally capped pay ratio of 6-to-1 between the highest and lowest earners.Traditional Dream FactoryIn a 25-hectare village in Alentejo, Portugal, Traditional Dream Factory is a living prototype of the self-sustaining regenerative community - blending collective ownership, ecological restoration, intentional community, and decentralized economy in one working place. They have raised over €1.25 million in total capital across 280+ token holders. Their 2026 build phase is completing co-living rooms, artist studios, a farm-to-table restaurant, a mushroom farm, and a biopool wellness space.AtreyuInvestment, as most of us have encountered it, prioritizes short-term financial returns above all else. Atreyu challenges this at the root by approaching investment through living systems principles and deep relational due diligence. They support their investees to ensure that both the enterprises and the ecosystems they steward realize their potential - together. They focus on early-stage businesses and actively encourage steward-ownership models that enshrine self-governance and purpose orientation.Muyu CoinOne of the first social coins in South America, Based in Ecuador - Muyu serves as an alternative exchange system rooted in community trust and an understanding of sacred economy. It protects the sovereignty of communities in their production, distribution, exchange, consumption, and post-consumption - keeping the loop of value inside the community rather than extracting it outward. It uses Cyclos, an enchrypted platform, a base.It first did an attempt to start in 2015, but not many people showed interest. It then came back very strong in 2020, due to the “plandemic”. People felt the need to have alternative ways to transact that was not controlled by limiting governments. Giving communities complete independence. Currently with over 150+ members who are exchanging goods and services in different nodes throughout the country. From food produce, clothing and art -to- car mechanic, dentists and school teachers serving to the community.Grassroots EconomicsFounded in Kenya, Grassroots Economics supports communities in building their own self-sustaining economies - even when national currency is scarce - through a model called Commitment Pooling.Consider Wanjiru, a vegetable seller in Mombasa's Bangla Pesa network. During a slow week when Kenyan shillings are tight, she issues a Community Asset Voucher - a commitment to provide vegetables - and deposits it into a communal pool. Her neighbor, a carpenter named Kamau, redeems it. He offers his own labor in return. The loop closes. Food reaches a family that needed it. A roof gets repaired. No national currency changes hands.This is not a workaround. It is a return to how value was always supposed to move.Since Grassroots Economics was established in 2010, they have supported 26,600 people across 290+ communities, issuing over 2,140 vouchers. Their protocol is inspired by indigenous Rotational Labor Associations similar to Kenya's mwethya and harambee traditions. It is open-source and blockchain-agnostic - meaning any community, anywhere, can deploy it.The Choice in Front of UsThese regenerative endeavors share one answer to the core assumption of the extractive economy: the economy does not need to extract in order to function. Value can circulate and regenerate rather than accumulate. Ecological health, community resilience, and the wellbeing of the next generations are not costs to minimize - they are the actual metrics that demonstrate economic success.The question is no longer whether it is possible. It is happening. The question is whether enough of us choose to participate in building it, and whether we remember our roles as stewards of the Earth that has always sustained us.We get to choose the future we want for ourselves, our children, and the seven generations that come after.Your Role in the Regenerative EconomyReading this is already a kind of remembering. The question that follows is simple: where do you begin?The regenerative economy is not waiting to be invented. It is waiting to be joined. Every one of the models described here started with a small group of people who decided to practice a different relationship with value - before it was proven, before it was popular, before it was funded.Here are real entry points, available now:Start with your immediate circle. Identify three skills or resources you have in excess - time, knowledge, food from a garden, tools sitting unused. Offer them. Ask for what you need in return. This is Ayni. It requires no platform, no signup, no permission.Relocalize your spending. Every dollar (fiat currency) that circulates inside a local economy multiplies its impact without leaving the community. Farmers markets, community-supported agriculture, local cooperatives, regenerative small businesses - these are not lifestyle choices. They are votes for a different system, cast weekly.Find or start a Time Bank in your area. hOurworld.org and TimeBanks.org maintain active directories. If nothing exists near you, starting one requires little more than a spreadsheet and a Telegram/Whatsapp group.Join a community working on this. It can be our Regenerative Leadership Community from www.regenerativeculture.life is one place. There are others - transition towns, ecovillages, commons networks - in most regions of the world. Find your people. The regenerative economy is, at its root, a relationship economy. It does not work alone.Learn the language. Permaculture design, commons governance, cooperative economics, sacred reciprocity - these are not abstract concepts. They are practical skills with deep traditions behind them. The more fluent you become, the more useful you are to the communities building this.The scale of what needs to change can feel paralyzing. It is not meant to. The models described in this article did not begin at scale. Mondragon began with six people. Grassroots Economics began in one neighborhood in Mombasa. The Quechua did not design Ayni for a movement - they designed it for a harvest.Start where you are. With what you have. With whoever is near you. That has always been enough to begin. It's not easy, but it is possible.Written by Gertie Farenas and Yoshi Pantera - 90% by us humans and 10% AI assisted.This Audio is recorded by a true voice - Yoshi PanteraThis article is part of the Regenerative Culture Chronicle - a publication exploring the ideas, practices, and communities building a world that benefits all life.Learn more at RegenerativeCulture.LifeThanks for reading Regenerative Culture Chronicle!

On this very special episode, we traveled to Ondarroa, a fishing port in the Basque Country of northern Spain, and followed a team of Whole Foods Market buyers and sourcing experts to find out how they interact with partners at the source—in this case, the legendary Spanish tinned seafood producer Ortiz. Joining us was AnaMaria Friede, who oversees grocery merchandising strategy and has spent two decades advancing Whole Foods Quality Standards. Category Merchant Julia Merid lives inside the canned seafood aisle and works directly with producers on everything from the fish itself to the packaging to how the story gets told. And Carrie Brownstein has spent 25 years researching and writing the actual standards that govern what Whole Foods can and can't sell—she's the person who established what “sustainable wild-caught” actually means and what it doesn't. At the center of it all: Conservas Ortiz, a fifth-generation, family-owned company working the Basque coast since 1891.

Radio Foot ce mercredi en direct 16h10 T.U., rediffusion 21h10 T.U. : - Enfin titrés ! Après une longue attente, des espoirs déçus, les Gunners se sont installés sur le trône d'Angleterre. ; - Le long travail de Mikel Arteta et de son staff. ; - Un trophée à aller chercher aussi pour le RC Lens. - Enfin titrés ! Après une longue attente, des espoirs déçus, les Gunners se sont installés sur le trône d'Angleterre. C'est le match nul de Manchester City à Bournemouth (1-1) qui permet aux Londoniens de se mettre d'atteinte des Cityzens avant l'ultime journée, et de devenir champions d'Angleterre 22 ans après les « Invincibles » des Pires, Vieira, Henry, et de leur entraîneur Arsène Wenger. - L'équipe a résisté à la pression, après 3 saisons terminées à la 2è place. - Les clés du succès ? Expérience des grands matches (C1), régularité, pressing et transition rapide, profondeur de banc, défense imperméable. - Les coups de pied arrêtés. Ils représentent 40% des buts inscrits en championnat. 18 l'ont été sur corner cette saison.  - Le long travail de Mikel Arteta et de son staff. Arrivé en décembre 2019, le Basque, longtemps frustré, a porté son projet de 6 ans à maturation, avec des joueurs-clés, un onze capable de gagner même en jouant moins bien. Peut-il s'installer durablement en haut de l'affiche ? Est-ce le meilleur Arsenal depuis longtemps, qu'est-ce qui le distingue des années Wenger ? Un soulagement pour les supporteurs, le prochain objectif, soulever le trophée de la Ligue des champions.  - Un trophée à aller chercher aussi pour le RC Lens. La Coupe de France pour couronner une saison réussie. Il n'y a eu (ou presque) que les Sang et Or et le PSG cette saison en L1. Saison que les Artésiens ont conclue par un festival de buts sur la pelouse de l'OL dimanche dernier (17 mai 2026). Une formation qui a aussi bénéficié de l'irrégularité des autres favoris, et de la concentration parisienne sur son nouvel objectif européen. Sans avoir les moyens des clubs anglais, le RCL a effectué un recrutement cohérent. Un effectif stable et discipliné. Là encore, le succès (plus fulgurant) d'un entraineur. Pierre Sage a réussi à maintenir son groupe performant sur la durée, mis en confiance par l'ex-éducateur, qui a donné à ses joueurs une identité de jeu forte. Lens sera porté par ses fameux supporteurs vendredi soir au Stade de France face à Nice. Quelle sera la saison prochaine ? pour revenir sur celle qui s'achève : Roger Boli, ex-canonnier nordiste et chouchou de Bollaert est notre invité.    Roger Boli, Frank Simon, Marc Libbra et Nabil Djellit débattront avec Annie Gasnier - Technique/réalisation : Laurent Salerno - Coordination : Pierre Guérin.

This week's guest is American photographer Tim Rice, whose career has covered everything from social photography and headshots to branding and commercial work, the sort of varied, real-world photography that has supported generations of working professionals behind the camera. Tim began his journey running a one-hour photo lab before the arrival of digital photography changed the industry almost overnight. Our conversation explores that transition, alongside his enduring affection for film, analogue processes, vinyl records, and cinema. In the first part of this extended conversation, we talk about photography's changing landscape, craftsmanship, and the value of physical media in an increasingly digital world. We also discuss Tim's upcoming photographic road trip across America's "middle ground", inspired by the observations and journeys of photographers Todd Webb and Robert Frank during the 1950s. In this week's mailbag, R.J. Campbell reflects on a photograph of his father and on how certain pictures seem to take on more meaning as the years pass. The biscuit tin question produces a wonderfully inventive collection of answers, Kari Price writes in from Australia with a letter that somehow manages to connect macro photography, street observation, Honeybrown beetles and burnt Basque cheesecake, Kelvin Brown is tempting us with barge life and Dennis Muir reflects on the hidden realities of photography, including muddy parking spots and creaking joints. Read more about our photographic adventures on our photography travel website, The Journey Beyond. Links to all guests and features will be on the show page, my sincere thanks to our Extra Milers, without whom we wouldn't be walking each week and Arthelper.ai, giving photographers smart tools to plan, promote, and manage your creative projects more easily. WHY: A Sketchbook of Life is available here.

"The Basque region..." Mike went to see Mortal Kombat II, and while he and the rest of the group were at the movie, Amin did the unthinkable. Zaslow is headed to Rolling Loud with his son this weekend, and while that's important, the Cyclones' title game tonight has taken over the discourse.

Nadia Erostarbe joins Joe Turpel on MEET THE ROOKIE after making history as the first Basque and Spanish woman to qualify for the Championship Tour. Raised in the surf-rich town of Zarautz in Spain's Basque Country, Nadia grew up surrounded by a tight-knit surf community and inspired by trailblazer Aritz Aranburu. She reflects on watching contests at her home break, learning from local big-wave surfers, and building confidence through international competition. Nadia opens up about the emotional journey to qualification, coming within one spot the year before, battling injuries, and overcoming self-doubt during the Challenger Series season. She shares how working with sports psychology, leaning on her support system, and believing in her dream helped her finally secure her place on Tour. She also discusses traveling with her boyfriend and coach, preparing her quiver with Darren Handley at DHD Surfboards, and her rookie season goals including Rookie of the Year and a Top 10 finish. From representing both the Basque Country and Spain to competing against world champions, Nadia breaks down what this historic qualification and season means to her.

Sign up at thecyclingpodcast.comTo say that Paul Seixas has taken the world of professional cycling by storm this spring would be an understatement of similar proportions to the 19-year-old Frenchman's gift for riding bicycles.His victory in Flèche Wallonne was just the latest in a series of jaw-dropping performances in 2026. That first win in a World Tour one-day race was preceded and no doubt informed and abetted by an equally remarkable display in Itzulia or the Tour of the Basque Country, where Seixas took three stage wins and cruised to the overall title. Daniel Friebe was in Spain that week to witness the definitive explosion of a cycling superstar. In this special episode, we go on a journey into the heart of the race, as history is made and the future of the sport rewritten.Seixy Basque was written and produced by Daniel Friebe. Art is by Daniel Friebe. The episode features music by Blue Panda and Amaraterra.
