Podcast appearances and mentions of Ben Nevis

Talisker Resources CEO Terry Harbort discusses the company's rapid progress at the Bralorne Gold Project, including a 3.36-million-ounce resource, high-grade underground development results, and the rollout of an ore-sorting system designed to cut transport costs and improve payable grades. Harbort also outlines the company's $11 million equipment financing, expansion of its land package through the Ben Nevis acquisition, and plans for a hybrid DSO-to-mill strategy. The conversation also covers permitting, production ramp-up, upcoming quarterly results, and a preliminary economic assessment expected this fall, as Talisker advances its district-scale growth strategy.

Terry Harbort, President and CEO of Talisker Resources (TSX: TSK) (OTCQX:TSKFF), joins me to review the continued success sampling high-grade gold over broad strike lengths from underground development on the 1045 Level at the Mustang Mine at the Bralorne Gold Project, British Columbia, Canada. We also discuss their recent loan for purchasing ore-sorting equipment, the acquisition of Ben Nevis property, and the big-picture vision for the company's future growth into multiple mines and satellite areas across their district.   The Company has successfully developed at the 1045 level on a continuous 127-metre strike length of high-grade gold mineralization along the BK-9870 Vein, averaging 21.52 grams per tonne (g/t) gold across an average true width of 0.83 metres.  Terry outlines that these encouraging results provide further validation of Talisker's geological model, demonstrating increasing grade and improved continuity of mineralized structures with depth within the Mustang Mine. This was after the company had recently reported on previous results from the BK vein that returned a 60m strike length at 27g/t also on the 1045m level, and their team is pleased that lateral development at Mustang is returning results well beyond initial expectations. He mentioned they are awaiting upcoming assays from development on the 1105m level above and from the new 1030m level, 15m below the 1045.   Next we discussed the news out July 17th which announced that the Company has entered into a loan agreement with Two Shores Capital Corp. for a delayed-draw term loan of up to $11.0 million to fund the acquisition of ore sorting and processing equipment.  Terry mentions that they've already purchased the equipment, and some of the front-end crushing machinery is already showing up to site and then walks listeners through the timeline of final on-site testing of the ore sorting in the latter part of this year, and that it may impact run-of-mine material and show a significant reduction in waste rock as soon as H1 2027.   Additionally, we discussed the news out on July 13th that announced their acquisition of a 100% interest in the Ben Nevis property located contiguous to the Company's Bralorne Gold Project in southwestern British Columbia from Coast Copper Corp. The Property is strategically located south of the current Bralorne Gold Project and comprises 16 mineral tenure claims totaling 10,404.15 hectares. The expanded land package lies southeast along the strike of the Cadwallader fault system which hosts the Bralorne deposits. The new property expansion adds seven historic mineral occurrences and strengthens the Company's exploration position by increasing the Bralorne Gold Project to 24,000 hectares spanning a 40-kilometre long mineralized district.     If you have any follow up questions for Terry regarding Talisker Resources, then please email me at Shad@kereport.com.   In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Talisker Resources at the time of this recording, and may choose to buy or sell shares at any time.   Click here to follow the latest news from Talisker Resources     For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

This is the final episode of the series and it is one that I originally recorded for the F Word at Work podcast, but I am so glad it is finding its home here. As we head into summer and those of you in education start to think about fitting treatment around the school calendar, I wanted to make sure this conversation reached you.I am joined by Caroline Biddle and Devon-Louise Oakley-Hogg, both teachers, both with their own lived experience of fertility treatment, and both co-founders of One Full Round: a campaign to bring fair, funded fertility leave to schools across the UK. Together they have developed a free model policy that any school can adopt, which has already been taken on by the Avanti Schools Trust, making it the first multi-academy trust in the country to offer full paid fertility treatment leave.Devon's story is particularly raw and honest. She stopped treatment two years ago at the age of 30, having spent £25,000 and gone through three rounds of egg collection without success. She talks about what it felt like to get devastating embryology phone calls at break time and then walk straight back into a Year 11 classroom. Caroline's story ended with a successful outcome, but the decade it took to get there, including having her pay docked when appointment letters started saying 'fertility' instead of 'gynae', shaped everything that One Full Round is now trying to change.Content note: This episode includes discussion of male factor infertility, azoospermia, failed IVF cycles, embryo loss and the decision to stop treatment.What we discuss in this episode:Caroline's experience of having her pay cut mid-treatment when appointment letters changed from 'gynaecological' to 'fertility' and the headteacher's response when she raised itWhy the line manager relationship in schools works differently: it is the headteacher, not the line manager, who has the final sayDevon's fertility journey: her husband's azoospermia diagnosis, three rounds of egg collection, £25,000 spent, and the decision to stop treatment at 30The phone calls from the embryologist at break time, and having to walk into a Year 11 class immediately afterWhy Devon says she does not yet feel ready to consider parenthood because she has not yet got back to who she was before treatmentThe guilt that comes from being a teacher going through fertility treatment: letting down your classes, taking sick leave, going in ill after egg collectionWhat Caroline's 2022 survey of more than 120 teachers found: guilt was one of the most recurring themes in over 3,200 words of open commentsWhy a written fertility policy matters even in schools that 'already let everyone go to appointments'What the One Full Round model policy actually covers: one full round of treatment from investigations to embryo transfer, paid leave, partner leave, and provisions for a cancelled cycleHow Avanti Schools Trust became the first trust in the country to adopt the policy, offering six weeks of full paid fertility leaveWhy some schools resist the policy and why they are short-sighted to do soThe recruitment and retention crisis in teaching and why 9,000 women left between the ages of 30 and 39 in a single yearGen Z teachers checking for fertility and wellbeing policies before accepting jobsOne Full Round's ambassador programme: free training, resources and templates for teachers who want to take the policy to their schoolDevon's PhD in student misogyny towards teachers and how it connects to the wider pictureThe Keeping Women in Teaching conference and the issues it set out to address: menstruation, misogyny, menopause and infertilityCaroline's PhD research into line managers and the support they offer women going through fertility treatmentFertility Matters at Work and why the workplace fertility conversation has shifted significantly in the last decadeAlso mentioned in this episodeFollow One Full Round @onefullround Fertility Matters at Work: fertilitymattersatwork.comAm I Overreacting?

This episode is a gentle one. It is about grief, about the body, about what happens when the path you imagined does not unfold the way you hoped, and about where you can find peace when words are not enough.I am joined by Ellen Mary Webster, horticulturalist, floral designer, author and host of the award-winning Plant Based Podcast. Ellen navigated a decade-long fertility journey that included a near-fatal ruptured ectopic pregnancy, a diagnosis of severe endometriosis, three rounds of IVF and ultimately a hysterectomy in her early 30s. Throughout all of it, she turned to her garden. And in this conversation she explains why that was not just a coping mechanism but a genuine form of healing.Whether you have a large garden, a windowsill, a balcony or just a park nearby, this episode will make you want to go outside.Content note: This episode includes discussion of ectopic pregnancy, pregnancy loss, endometriosis, IVF, hysterectomy and involuntary childlessness.What we discuss in this episode:Ellen's decade-long fertility journey: from ectopic pregnancy to endometriosis diagnosis to IVF to hysterectomyThe ruptured ectopic pregnancy that nearly cost Ellen her life and the eight hours of dismissal that preceded emergency surgeryThe health anxiety that stayed long after the physical recoveryWhy gardening became Ellen's constant throughout all of it, from the very first loss to the weeks recovering from a hysterectomyWhat it means to garden for process rather than outcome and why that mindset maps directly onto a fertility journeyThe science behind soil: why getting your hands in the dirt genuinely affects your brain chemistryWhy just seeing a flower can momentarily shift your mental state even when you are in deep griefForest bathing: what it actually is, what the Japanese have known for centuries, and how 40 minutes among trees can reduce anxiety and increase natural killer cellsHow to do forest bathing on your own and why walking slowly with intention is where to startWhat Ellen did during the five weeks she could not garden after her hysterectomy and what sitting still in her garden taught herThe anger and the unfairness of watching friends fall pregnant and how Ellen processed that over timeWhy you do not need to be a gardener for nature to help you: one plant, a garden centre coffee and a short walk all countThe fertility journey and what it taught Ellen about the miracle of lifeEllen's wellness retreats, forest bathing sessions and what a day or weekend immersed in nature can offerEllen's invitation to anyone who feels like this will not work for themWe are not separate from nature. We are part of it. And we have just become so far detached from it that we have forgotten that going outside, even briefly, even reluctantly, is going to make you feel a little better. Start with one plant. Go to the garden centre. Get a coffee and a piece of cake. Buy the one plant you like and try to nurture it. That is enough.About Ellen Mary WebsterEllen Mary Webster is a horticulturalist, floral designer, author and wellness retreat host. She is the author of The Joy of Gardening and How to Grow a Garden, and the host of the award-winning Plant Based Podcast.

One year in. And what a year it has been.In this episode I am joined by Katie Rollings, founder of Fertility Action, to mark the charity's first birthday. We talk about everything from the support groups that have quietly changed people's lives, to the campaign work happening at the highest levels of government, to what Katie believes the next big push needs to be: a national fertility strategy.This is a conversation full of hope. There is still so much to do, but the momentum is real, the people are extraordinary, and the case for change has never been stronger.What we discuss in this episode:What Fertility Action has achieved in its first year and the stories that have kept Katie goingHow the support groups actually work and why showing up with your camera off is completely fineThe Trying to Conceive group, the Positive Test and Beyond group, the Secondary Infertility group and what each one has becomeThe in-person walk-and-talk meetups in London and ManchesterThe woman who found her best friend through a Fertility Action support groupWhy the Life After Treatment group has been harder to grow and what Fertility Action is learning from thatThe South Asian support group and why in-person connection is what that community really needsThe new NICE guidelines and the change that barely made the headlines: up to six cycles in selected patientsWhy campaigning at ICB level has not worked and why Fertility Action is now pushing for central commissioningHow fertility treatment compares across Europe and why the UK is falling behindWhy fertility still sits awkwardly between the Women's Health Strategy and the Men's Health Strategy and gets properly covered in neitherWhy Katie believes the UK urgently needs its own national fertility strategyThe education project Fertility Action has launched with colleges and the National Education UnionThe moment a 17-year-old student challenged them in a college debate and what happened nextThe Three Peaks Challenge: why Katie chose it, who is doing it and how to donateFertility Action's birthday celebrations and what the next two years look likeHow to get involved as a volunteerAbout Katie Rollings and Fertility ActionKatie Rollings is the founder of Fertility Action, the UK's newest fertility charity, now celebrating its first birthday.

If you have Endometriosis, you will know that the pain and fatigue can feel relentless. In our episode last week, we discussed consideration around egg freezing and IVF for Endo Warriors with Dr Shirin Khanjani. This week, we're bringing it right down to what you're eating day to day as the right approach to food can make a real difference to how your body manages inflammation, metabolises hormones and supports you through the difficult days.In this episode I am joined by Jane Aherne, a Registered Nutritionist with an MSc in Nutrition from the University of Westminster. Jane specialises in fertility, reproductive conditions and chronic inflammation, and has worked with women dealing with endometriosis and PCOS across functional medicine environments including IVF Matters and TIC Health. This is not about a restrictive diet or a long list of rules. It is about understanding why certain foods make your symptoms worse, why others help, and how to make small, sustainable changes that your body will actually thank you for.What we discuss in this episode:Why Endometriosis and chronic inflammation are so closely linkedThe difference between pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory foods and why it mattersWhy Omega 3 is Jane's first recommendation for almost every client with endoThe best food sources of Omega 3 and what to do if you are vegan or do not eat fishThe role of the Mediterranean diet in reducing inflammationWhy trans fats, ultra-processed foods and alcohol can actively worsen symptomsHow gut health and liver function affect the way your body processes oestrogenThe blood sugar spike and crash cycle: why it matters so much in an inflammatory environmentHow constant blood sugar spikes can drive insulin resistance and compound existing inflammationWhy comfort eating during flare ups can actually make things worse and what to do insteadPractical swaps: dates, nuts, seeds, high protein meals and how to make them work in real lifeWhy how you eat can be just as important as what you eatMindful eating, stress and the rest-and-digest responsePlanning and preparation for shift workers and people on the goBalancing oestrogen naturally through fibre, cruciferous vegetables and liver-supporting foodsHow soon you can expect to feel the benefits of dietary changesWhy there is no single perfect diet for endometriosis and what personalisation actually looks likeThe biggest misconception Jane wants to set the record straight onJane's one piece of advice if you can only do one thingJane's five small changes to start this weekAdd two portions of oily fish (salmon, sardines, mackerel) or a quality Omega 3 supplementIncrease fibre gradually through whole grains, fruits, vegetables and legumesInclude more cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, cauliflower and kale for oestrogen metabolismSwap high-sugar snacks for a date with a Brazil nut or a handful of mixed nuts and seedsSit down for meals away from screens and allow your body to move into rest-and-digest mode Jane on InstaThis episode is sponsored by Wild NutritionI know how overwhelming it can be figuring out which supplements actually make sense for your body, especially when you are already managing a condition like endometriosis.

If you have endometriosis and you're thinking about your fertility, this is one of those conversations I really want you to hear.In this episode, I sat down with Dr. Shirin Khanjani, Consultant Gynaecologist and accredited subspecialist in reproductive medicine and surgery, to properly unpack what's actually going on when endometriosis and fertility collide.This chat comes off the back of the government's Renewed Women's Health Strategy, which has once again highlighted just how many women are still being dismissed, delayed, or left without answers. And when it comes to endometriosis, the reality is still pretty shocking. On average, it takes seven to eight years to get a diagnosis.So this episode is about what happens next. Once you finally have that diagnosis, what do you actually need to know?We talk through everything, from how surgery can affect your egg reserve, to why IVF isn't a one-size-fits-all approach for endometriosis patients, to the emotional weight of trying to navigate all of this at the same time.What we cover in this episodeWhy endometriosis has been one of the biggest gaps in women's health and how that is slowly starting to shift The many different ways endometriosis can show up, from period pain to IBS, fatigue, back pain and infertility Why diagnosis still takes years and what you can do to advocate for yourself What to ask for at GP level and how to push for proper investigations The nuance around surgery and when it can help fertility or potentially reduce egg reserve What happens to ovarian reserve when chocolate cysts are removed Why fertility preservation, like egg or embryo freezing, should be considered before surgery in some cases How endometriosis changes IVF protocols and why specialist care matters The impact of fluid-filled tubes on implantation and when surgery becomes necessary The emotional and psychological toll of managing endometriosis alongside fertility treatment Why continuity of care makes such a difference to outcomes Common misconceptions around natural conception with endometriosis Why waiting too long without investigation can cost valuable reproductive time The impact of endometriosis in the workplace and why awareness still matters Why endometriosis and IVF is not one-size-fits-allOne of the biggest takeaways from this conversation is that standard IVF pathways don't always apply if you have endometriosis.Dr. Khanjani explains that specialist protocols often need to include:Managing oestrogen levels carefully during stimulation Navigating more complex egg collections due to scar tissue or cysts Using antibiotics during egg collection to reduce inflammation risk Supporting the body after collection to keep endometriosis under control Her advice is simple but important. When you walk into a clinic, ask directly if they have specific protocols for endometriosis patients. If they don't, that tells you something.Misconceptions we really need to clear upThere are a few things Dr. Khanjani is very clear on:You can still fall pregnant naturally with endometriosis. The chances may be lower, but it's not impossible Egg quality is not automatically worse. IVF outcomes can be comparable once eggs are retrieved Surgery is not always the first step. In some cases, it can delay treatment or reduce egg reserve Being told to “just keep trying” without investigation can waste valuable time There isn't one perfect pathway. Everything needs to be individualised About Dr. Shirin KhanjaniDr. Shirin Khanjani is a Consultant Gynaecologist and accredited subspecialist in reproductive medicine and surgery.She holds a PhD from Imperial College London and is an Honorary Associate Professor at University College London. In her NHS role at UCLH, she focuses on low ovarian reserve, recurrent implantation failure and endometriosis.She is also a co-founder of Fitzrovia Fertility, a London clinic built around genuinely personalised, evidence-based care.Find out more: https://fitzroviafertility.co.uk https://fitzroviafertility.co.uk/about-usWhy this conversation mattersI hear from so many of you who've been dismissed, misdiagnosed, or passed from one specialist to another for years.By the time you get to a fertility clinic, you're often already exhausted, anxious, and unsure who to trust.This episode is about helping you feel more informed and more prepared. So when you walk into those conversations, you know what to ask and what to look out for.This episode is for you if you are:Newly diagnosed and trying to understand what this means for your fertility Considering surgery and want to understand the impact on your egg reserve About to start IVF and unsure whether your clinic has the specialist knowledge needed Trying to conceive and being told to wait without investigation Supporting someone navigating all of the above Support and resourcesThe Fertility Podcast is the official podcast for Fertility Action, a charity providing education, support and campaigning for fairer access to fertility treatment.Fertility Action runs free drop-in support sessions twice a week.

What does it feel like to reach the end of your fertility journey , not with the family you imagined, but with the one you have? In this episode, host Natalie Silverman sits down with patient advocate, writer, and blogger Seetal Savla for an honest, moving conversation about secondary infertility, the decision to stop treatment, and the complicated emotions that don't simply disappear after a hard-won pregnancy.Seetal spent six years trying to conceive, went through five rounds of unsuccessful IVF (including one with a donor), experienced multiple losses, and eventually conceived her daughter naturally. Now living in Berlin, she and her husband have made the deeply personal decision not to pursue further treatment , and she speaks candidly about what that letting go actually looks and feels like.This is also a conversation for those of you who are still on the journey. Because the feelings Seetal describes , the sting of pregnancy announcements, the guilt, the grief for the family you thought you'd have , are feelings many of you will recognise wherever you are right now.Trigger warning: This episode includes discussion of pregnancy loss, pregnancy after loss, and the emotional impact of making the decision to stop fertility treatment.What we discuss in this episode:Secondary infertility and what it means when there's no clear diagnosisThe decision to stop treatment , and the grief and relief that can come with itHow to navigate the sting of pregnancy announcements, even as a parentAllowing yourself to feel the 'negative' emotions: sadness, jealousy, resentmentSeetal's two-part answer to the question: 'Do you want another baby?'Donating remaining embryos , and the complicated emotions around thatThe language we use: why 'only child' and 'one and done' don't always fitHow to handle intrusive questions, especially within South Asian communitiesForewarnng friends and family about pregnancy announcements , what actually helpsWhen fertility friendships shift or break downSeetal's in-person support group for South Asian women in BerlinThe power of lived experience communities , and why you don't have to speak to belongSeetal's 13-part Ferring video diary series documenting her final cycle through to motherhoodAbout Seetal SavlaSeetal is a patient advocate, writer, and blogger who supports the South Asian fertility community both in the UK and internationally.

But what happens when there is no next step? When the path ends somewhere different from where you thought it would?This episode is for anyone who has made , or is close to making , the decision to stop treatment. It's for anyone navigating secondary infertility, sitting with grief alongside gratitude, or trying to find the words for feelings that don't have easy names.

Witajcie w podcaście Black Hat Ultra!Dzisiaj usłyszycie gościa, którego historia jest równie mocna jak jego nogi. Pochodzi z Piły, gdzie uczył angielskiego. W 2013 roku przeprowadził się do Szkocji, do Mallaig - małej rybackiej miejscowości w Highlands. Ten rok był jak nowy początek życia, bo za zmianą miejsca zamieszkania poszło również odstawienie używek i rozpoczęcie biegania po okolicznych wzgórzach.Paweł Cymbalista, bo tak się nazywa dzisiejszy gość, od tamtej pory nie zatrzymał się ani razu.W ciągu ostatnich lat nazbierał imponującą listę wyników. Cape Wrath Trail 376 kilometrów, 13 000 metrów przewyższenia, bez wsparcia, w 3 dni i 14 godzin. West Highland Way FKT. Great Glen Way FKT. Highland 4 FKT. A do tego rekord świata na Ben Nevis siedem wejść i zejść w niecałe 23 godziny. Plus trzy klasyki brytyjskiego biegania górskiego: Ramsay Round, Buckley Round i Bob Graham Round wszystkie poniżej 24 godzin.Za swoje dokonania został doceniony na festiwalu w Fort William i otrzymał nagrodę za wschodzący talent szkockiej kultury górskiej.Droga Pawła jest niezwykła, a to, co mnie chyba najbardziej zaskoczyło, to fakt, że Paweł rozpoczął swoje bieganie nie od błędów początkującego, ale od kursu instruktorskiego słyszeliście kiedyś taki przypadek?Ostatnio Paweł stanął na starcie niezwykle trudnego Zimowego Spine Race z zamiarem walki o najwyższe miejsce na podium w tym podcaście usłyszycie, jak ta historia się potoczyła.Zanim zaczniemy, dziękuję bardzo patronom podcastu Black Hat Ultra.

This is a short, daily podcast for intermediate to advanced English learners who want to build natural English vocabulary through stories and real-life usage.In this episode of The English Like a Native Podcast, Anna continues Week 9, Day 4 of Gabriel's journey through the Scottish Highlands as he decides to head towards Ben Nevis in the hope of witnessing something extraordinary. You'll learn five powerful adjectives for describing experiences that feel beyond ordinary.

What does it take to bring wild nature back to a country that has forgotten what it looks like? Can rewilding truly benefit local communities and rural economies or does it come at their expense? And is Scotland really thirty years behind the rest of Europe when it comes to restoring its landscapes? This is a Podcasthon episode and this year I've chosen SCOTLAND: The Big Picture as my featured charity. Founded by nature photographers and filmmakers it has grown from a single employee to a team of twenty-four in just a few years. Today I'm joined by Lisa Chilton, CEO, and Stef Lauer, Rewilding Training Lead.Lisa and Stef walk us through the extraordinary scope of what SCOTLAND: The Big Picture has built. At the heart of it all is the Northwoods Rewilding Network, a string of over a hundred land partners spanning the country from the Solway Firth to Shetland. The research backing this work is striking. Rewilded sites within the network have recorded more than 250% more bird species and a tenfold increase in pollinator abundance compared to control sites that weren't rewilded. Beyond the network, the Loch Abar Mòrr poject brings together fourteen landowners across 120,000 acres, working to a fifty-year vision that stretches from the summit of Ben Nevis right down to seagrass beds and native oysters on the seafloor.Our conversation also covers the long and careful effort to bring lynx back to Scotland. Lisa explains how Lynx to Scotland, a partnership involving SCOTLAND: The Big Picture, Trees for Life, and the Lifescape Project, has spent years engaging over fifty national stakeholder organisations and is now conducting one-to-one consultations in the communities most likely to be affected by any future release. The process is slow and deliberate. But as Stef puts it, the question is really about what kind of ecosystem we want to leave for the next generation. On that front, the ambition and the optimism coming from Lisa and Stef are genuinely infectious.Further reading:Working to return lynx to northern Scotland | Lynx to ScotlandRewilding training | SCOTLAND: The Big PictureThe Big Picture Conference | SCOTLAND: The Big PictureDonate | SCOTLAND: The Big PictureOur Big Picture Community | SCOTLAND: The Big PictureSubscribe to Tommy's Outdoors: Conservation and Science NewsletterSupport the Podcast and Buy Me a Coffee.Follow Tommy's Outdoors on Bluesky, Instagram or YouTube

Aujourd'hui, je vous emmène en Écosse avec François, Marie et leurs trois enfants de 8, 6 et 3 ans.Pendant quinze jours, ils ont parcouru les Highlands en Defender, entre routes étroites, lochs à perte de vue, ascension du Ben Nevis, paysages grandioses à Glencoe, traversée vers les Hébrides et retrouvailles avec le clan familial écossais de Marie.Tout au long du voyage, leur petite dernière a repéré chaque mouton croisé — et il y en a beaucoup en Écosse… ce qui a ajouté un certain rythme aux trajets. Ils ont aussi fait un stop à Glenfinnan pour voir passer l'incontournable train d'Harry Potter.Et comme dans tout chouette voyage, il fallait bien une petite galère. Une nuit, le vent s'est emballé un peu trop fort sur la tente de toit, au point qu'il a fallu réveiller les enfants en pleine tempête pour changer d'endroit. Et là, chacun a réagi à sa manière… ce qui a donné une scène assez mémorable….Si l'idée d'un voyage en famille où on s'adapte à tout avec le sourire vous parle, cet épisode devrait vous plaire.-----------Si l'épisode vous a plu, laissez-moi une note 5 ⭐️ou un commentaire sur Apple Podcasts ou Spotify

Today we are looking at the shoes of the Gospel of Peace that is part of the Amour of God. In modern sport, there are specific shoes for each sport. Shoes on a tennis court are different from shoes on a football pitch. Different surfaces require different shoes. When we go hillwalking, we wear proper shoes. The last thing you would want is improper shoes that may cause you to slip or fall. Flip-flops might not be the best choice for climbing Ben Nevis. I have an uncle who took me and my brothers to Sea World. It was an aquarium and amusement park combined. For whatever his reasons were that day, he wore cowboy boots. His feet were so sore that we had to leave early. Those weren't the best choice for walking miles and miles. Have you ever worn the wrong shoes or broken in a new pair and got the blisters that go with it? Soldiers know the importance of their feet and take precautions to keep them dry and safe. If an army can't move. They can be easily defeated. Pun intended!Preparation is a word meaning “a prepared foundation.” The gospel provides the footing for everything we do.

Joshua and Jason have a sit down to discuss the upcoming Retail Release # 13 for the US. There are 8 bottlings all in all but, to give you and idea, they've bottled a 17yo Balblair in PX Sherry, a 10yo Ben Nevis in Spanish Oak, a 12yo Benrinnes in New Charred Oak... some real charmers to discuss and a lot of ground to cover. Add to this, the boys share the details of the August 2025 US Online Exclusive bottlings. Three American whiskies sure to knock your socks off! Somehow 35 minutes became 59 minutes. How did that happen (again)? ...as usual, have a seat, have a pour, and listen in. Unless you're driving. If you're driving, be smart and stay sober but be sure to listen into the conversation!

¿Alguna vez os habéis preguntado por qué Filomena se llama Filomena o por qué un huracán lleva nombre de persona? En el episodio de hoy de DIAS EXTRAÑOS, nos sumergimos en la vida absolutamente fascinante y estrambótica de Clement Lindley Wragge, el hombre que no solo fue un pionero de la meteorología moderna, escalando a diario cumbres infernales como el Ben Nevis para tomar mediciones, sino que también inauguró la tradición de nombrar las tormentas... ¡y a menudo lo hacía con los nombres de los políticos que peor le caían! Pero esperad, que hay más: desde intentar hacer llover a cañonazos en Australia hasta un viaje espiritual que lo llevó de la teosofía y el ocultismo a convertirse al Islam y buscar al Mahdi, pasando por charlas sobre espiritismo con el mismísimo Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Una existencia tan borrascosa como los fenómenos que estudiaba, ¡no os la perdáis! Escucha el episodio completo en la app de iVoox, o descubre todo el catálogo de iVoox Originals

On the banks of the St Lawrence River in Quebec stands a 100-year-old lighthouse. While initially built to help boats navigate one of Canada's most difficult waterways, the Point-de-Père site now also holds a different responsibility: it is a key reference for measuring sea levels around the entire North America continent. But this is all set to change. With the development of new satellite technology, the tricky task of measuring sea levels is being updated - which could mean mountains around North America get brand new official heights. In this episode we revisit a question from CrowdScience listener Beth, who wondered about the elevation signs she saw scattered along a mountainous road, indicating how high above sea level she was. As sea levels rise, will all the elevation signs need repainting? And how do you measure sea level, anyway? The height of an enormous pile of rock like Ben Nevis, or Mount Everest feels unchangeable. But we measure them relative to the nearest patch of sea, which is where our story becomes complicated. Unlike water in a bath, sea level is not equal around the world. In fact, nothing on earth - not the sea, the shore or the mountains - is stable or constant, so the question of what you measure from and to becomes incredibly tricky. But that hasn't stopped scientists risking life and fingers to use an ever-evolving array of technologies to find answers. Join host Marnie Chesterton as she dives into the mechanics of the latest sea level technology, and how it could make a big difference to understanding our unpredictable world.
