In this episode, James sits down with Nigel Preston from Singletrack Events for a rare behind-the-scenes look at what it actually takes to build, grow, and deliver some of Australia's biggest trail running events.Nigel shares his journey from growing up in Bendigo's cross-country scene, to working in events and sponsorship, before helping launch Singletrack Events out of the chaos of COVID. From the early days of taking over Buffalo Stampede and Roller Coaster, through to the growth of GPT100, Hounslow, Running Wild, Wonderland and the World Trail Majors, this conversation pulls back the curtain on the business, logistics, risk, and passion behind modern trail events.James and Nigel also dive into some of the bigger questions facing the sport: whether the Australian trail calendar is becoming saturated, how we bring more young runners into trail running, why shorter distances matter, what role prize money should play, and how events can better support both elite athletes and the back of the pack.They also cover the importance of volunteers, the Singletrack Trail Team, live streaming, national championships, international athletes, and why creating a great event experience is about far more than just putting flags in the ground.A big conversation on race directing, community, growth, and the future of trail running in Australia.***Don't forget, use code PEAK at Bix's website for 20% off Bix products, exclusive to PPP listeners!***Thanks for tuning in to Peak Pursuits!

Former investment banker Bix Weir rejoins the program for a deep discussion on the manipulation of reality through fiat currencies, global finance, monetary metals and silver. We discuss the endless money printing taking place behind the scenes with little realistic oversight or transparency and the growing concerns surrounding the stability of the global financial system.  Bix shares his perspective on the true role of gold and silver within the monetary system and why he believes there is far more gold in existence than the public has been led to believe. We explore how monetary metals continue to play a central role in global power structures even as governments and central banks publicly downplay their importance. We also discuss the Epstein case and how deeply intertwined it appears to be with powerful institutions, industries and global influence networks. Bix argues that fully exposing the extent of the corruption and compromise could unleash a level of distrust that threatens confidence in the broader system itself.Learn more and follow Bix Weir at RoadtoRoota.comSee exclusives and Webinars at SarahWestall.Substack.comProtect your assets with a company you can trust - Get the private & better price list - Go to SarahWestall.com/MilesFranklin

Hunter and Jessica have finally reached the end of the road with the Andor Season 2 finale, and it's a straight shot right into the events of Rogue One. The hosts break down the claustrophobic Coruscant rescue where a spectacularly lethal K-2SO helps create the ultimate "ISB sandwich," putting a permanent "hurt" on Officer Heurt. Meanwhile, Major Partagaz realizes his tyrannical web has finally collapsed, choosing to ironically listen to Nemik's rebel manifesto one last time before making his dark exit.Back on Yavin 4, Cassian's massive intel dump about the critical phrase "Jedha, Kyber, and Erso" gets a surprisingly underwhelming reaction from Rebel command. The hosts discuss Mon Mothma's tense Zoom call with a paranoid Saw Gerrera, and hilariously debate whether Bail Organa is secretly shopping on Coruscant for metal bikinis—or just practical claw clips—for a teenage Princess Leia. They also marvel at Cassian's miraculously fresh Rogue One haircut and his adorable dedication to watering his plants before heading off on a suicide mission to the Ring of Kafrene.Hunter and Jessica try to hold back tears discussing the emotionally devastating final montage, which features Dedra Meero sporting Narkina 5 prison stripes, Krennic admiring his shiny new Death Star, and Bix hiding out on "fake Lothal" with a very surprising baby Andor. Stick around as the hosts map out their upcoming pod schedule, transitioning from a Rogue One rewatch straight into the highly anticipated April release of the Darth Maul: Shadow Lord series.Join us on Facebook: The Purrgil Pod.

You hear Vlad Ixel every week on Peak Pursuits, but this episode is the deeper story behind the mic.Vlad takes us back to the early days: the lifestyle he was living, the moment he decided to make a clean break, and how signing up for a marathon became the switch that changed everything. We get into the family thread too: his dad's ultra background in the Soviet Union, and why that planted the seed for Vlad to chase the marathon and bigger challenges later on.From there, Vlad explains what hooked him: the simple power of finishing something, and how that turned into an obsession that's now led to hundreds of races. Then we go behind Bix Nutrition. We also touch on his North Face sponsorship chapter: how it started, how it ended, and what he learned from that period.If you've ever wondered what shaped Vlad into the runner, coach, and founder he is now, this is the episode.And if it hits, share it with a mate, especially someone who's in that “new chapter” phase and needs a nudge to back themselves.Check out Bix***Don't forget, use code PEAK at Bix's website for 20% off Bix products, exclusive to PPP listeners!***Thanks for tuning in to Peak Pursuits!

On this episode of Embracing Marketing Mistakes, I'm joined by Gareth Turner, founder of Big Black Door and former Head of Marketing at Weetabix. Gareth has over 23 years of experience in food and drink, having led marketing for brands like John Smith's, Bulmers, Lurpak and Arla. From buying a racehorse for John Smith's to launching Bulmers fruit ciders and leading the viral Beanz on Bix campaign, his career is packed with bold ideas and brilliant lessons.Gareth opens up about one of his biggest missteps: a bizarre PR stunt involving a coat made of human hair to promote a chocolate milkshake. The idea aimed to poke fun at over-the-top masculinity in advertising but fell flat due to a lack of strategic grounding and a weak link to the product.• Created a coat from barbershop hair to promote protein chocolate milk • Concept satirised extreme masculinity in ads • Missed the mark with an unclear product connection • Broke a key food marketing rule by undermining appetite appeal • Gained international attention, including CNN Japan • Might spark social media buzz today, but still fails on brand relevanceIs your strategy still right in 2026?

Episode 100 of Peak Pursuits!Today, James, Jess, Brodie, Simone and Vlad come together for a special milestone episode to reflect on how the podcast started, the moments that have stood out across the first 100 episodes, and what it has meant to help grow and spotlight trail running in Australia.

Jess talks training with new coach Kate Avery and what's changed in her approach, while Brodie recaps his Donna Double experience after somehow forgetting his shoes on race morning.There's also discussion around different coaching styles, how athletes respond to training in different ways, ASICS Trabuco Max 5 review, results from the weekend, including the Donna Double, and a look ahead to races like Six Foot Track and Razorback.As always, there's plenty of banter along the way — and a big thank you to everyone who has listened, supported and helped Peak Pursuits reach 100 episodes.Results: Trans Gran Canaria Warbutron Trail Run Festival Pinnacles Classic***Don't forget, use code PEAK at Bix's website for 20% off Bix products, exclusive to PPP listeners!***Thanks for tuning in to Peak Pursuits - Join us on Patreon!Connect with us on Instagram @peakpursuits.pod to share your thoughts, questions, and your own trail stories.

Hunter and Jessica are back to break down what might be the most stressful 24 hours in galactic history. In this episode, the political, militaristic, and underworld factions of the rebellion are finally colliding, and Mon Mothma is officially done playing the polite politician. The hosts dissect her epic, bridge-burning Senate speech where she bravely drops the "M" word—Monster—on Emperor Palpatine right before the ISB literally pulls the plug on the power. Meanwhile, Cassian Andor's retirement plans are once again spectacularly ruined. Despite telling everyone who will listen that he is completely "done," he inevitably ends up playing bodyguard, throwing his gross brown jacket over Mon Mothma's couture to rescue her down a 187-step OSHA nightmare of a staircase. Jessica and Hunter also dive into Luthen's terrifying puppet-master skills, Bix's heartbreaking farewell recording (could there be a baby Andor on the way?), and the highly anticipated boot-up of a certain KX security droid. Plus, stick around for some quick thoughts on The Mandalorian and Grogu trailer and those glorious X-Wing sunset shots.Join us on Facebook: The Purrgil Pod. We are also on Blue Sky and Mastodon.

Episode Overview: Andor Season 2, Episode 7 – "The Messenger"Happy New Year, 2026! Hunter and Jessica are finally back to break down the calm before the storm in Andor Season 2, Episode 7, "The Messenger".In this episode, the Empire is busy staging false flag operations, and Dedra Meero is choking on her ambitions while trying to keep Syril Karn in line. Jessica has some choice words for Dedra's manipulation tactics, describing her farewell to Syril as the "most unpassionate kiss ever"—akin to kissing a "stranger's dog". Meanwhile, on Yavin, a Force healer gets inside Cassian's head (and shoulder), planting the seeds for Bix to realize she might be holding him back from his destiny. From Mon Mothma's senate struggles to the "dead meat" rookie troopers arriving on Gorman, the hosts analyze how all the pieces are being placed for a massive catastrophe.

Today we present two piano instrumentals that explore the mysteries of Mist.  Strictly speaking, a “mist” can be defined by some water vapor that obscures your vision, but how many more evocative instances can you think of where a mist appears in a story or film, usually preceding an arrival of some spiritual manifestation? There was a video game called “Myst” (spelled with a Y) which featured a series of puzzles saturated with a heady whiff of the arcane. Your sight is always obscured; your emotional restlessness is never assuaged.  Erroll Garner and Bix Beiderbecke were two jazz titans writing compositions separated by 30 years that hint at this other-worldly quality inherent in the idea of the Mist. Their music excites the senses and tugs at the heart simultaneously; it's music that lifts off and keeps insinuating an urge to maintain altitude in an unresolved quest for landing, but never deciding on a perch.ERROLL GARNERMost of you probably know Johnny Mathis's version of Misty, with lyrics by Johnny Burke, that was a monster hit of 1959, but Erroll Garner wrote the song as an instrumental 5 years earlier, on a plane flight to Chicago's OHare airport, after seeing a rainbow through the airplane window. That's a fitting image for the complicated feelings invoked here: a glimpse of hope through tears. Influenced by Earl Hines, Garner played with spontaneous timing changes, liquidy octaval melodies, and improvised chordal voicings, and his contribution to jazz evolution was to reconcile the gap between BeBop spontaneity and Orchestral formalism. His style was so free that he was dubbed “the happy man” because this joy he exuded was so palpable. Misty was concocted from the eternal music of the spheres - maybe because his feet were not on the ground when he composed it.BIX BEIDERBECKEThe comet of Bix Beiderbecke's talent was a mystery in itself: dead from alcohol in 1931 at the age of 28, his cornet style and compositional originality continues to fascinate almost 100 years later. A self taught musician, Bix appeared from podunk Iowa and immediately became a ragtime sensation at the height of the Jazz era with The Wolverines, then with Paul Whiteman's orchestra (along with Bing Crosby). He was a white man playing a traditionally black form of music, which was a novelty, and that made him easier to market to middle America - but such genius is color blind.Although renowned for his horn playing, he composed In a Mist on piano in 1927 (he was 24), and it's here that you see the influence of the impressionist composer Claude Debussy, the creator of such sensuous works as Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun and La Mer. Is this Jazz? How did he do it? Clearly, Bix was in touch with mystical forces beyond human understanding, or maybe, like Robert Johnson, he just made a deal with the devil. Either way, the spiritual quest suggested by these chord changes transports us into a misty continent of emotional confusion.

Growing up in Milwaukee, expectations were clear for Bix Firer: go straight to college and stay on a traditional path. He tried — and quickly learned it wasn't his path at all. After dropping out, Bix spent several years exploring unconventional jobs, traveling, and learning through lived experience rather than a classroom. Those detours became the foundation for discovering who he was and what he valued. In this episode of Success is Subjective, Bix shares how listening to his intuition — even when it meant starting over — eventually led him into outdoor education, meaningful community work, and a values-aligned career in conservation with the Ice Age Trail Alliance. His journey is a grounding reminder that success isn't measured by speed or status, but by alignment, joy, and how we show up for ourselves and others. If you or a young adult in your life is questioning “the expected path,” Bix's story offers reassurance that stepping off course may be the most important part of finding your way. Bix's Resources: Website: Ice Age Trail AllianceInstagram: @iceagetrailorgEmma's book: Dead ReckoningPodcast features: The Dirtbag DiariesConnect with Joanna Lilley  Therapeutic Consulting AssociationLilley Consulting WebsiteLilley Consulting on Facebook Lilley Consulting on YouTubeEmail joanna@lilleyconsulting.com#TherapeuticConsulting #LilleyConsulting #Successful  #TherapeuticPrograms #Therapy #MentalHealthMatters #Podcast #PodcastCommunity #TheJourney #SuccessIsSubjectivePodcast #TheUnpavedRoad #PFCAudioVideo #IceAgeTrail #FindYourTrail #ExploreWisconsin 

On the latest episode of the Gentlemen's Wrestling Podcast, David Bixenspan, co-host of the Between the Sheets podcast joins the show to discuss the tumultuous discourse that has infected all of pro wrestling.

The Purrgil Pod: Calibrate Your Enthusiasm (and Your Cough Medicine)Welcome back to The Purrgil Pod, where hosts Jessica and Hunter are battling colds and exhaustion to recap a very tension-filled episode!It was a festive evening indeed, where the ISB looked fantastic in their dress whites (don't get us started on Krennic and his little sash—oh, hot!). We debate why Mon Mothma's amazing, ribbon-covered outfits and great collar pieces aren't already available on Etsy!The tension is building as the Coruscant party and the Gorman heist go down simultaneously. While Cassian worries about protecting Gorman, Luthan is looking at the bigger picture, stating that if the effort "goes up in flames, it will burn very brightly". You definitely won't be laughing when we cover the heartbreaking tragedy involving Vel and Cinta, or when Bix decides she's had enough and delivers fiery closure to Gorst.Also, learn why you must "Calibrate your enthusiasm" when dealing with the ISB! And please, somebody tell us: Do we really need more Porgs in the next Mandalorian movie?This episode has everything—even Hunter forgetting the name of Coruscant. And not even one joke about this being our 69th episode. We are so grown up! Tune in!

The hosts of Star Wars Generations reunite after their hiatus to discuss rewatching Rogue One following the conclusion of Andor Season Two. This episode explores how the Disney+ series fundamentally changes the viewing experience of the 2016 film, adding emotional depth and context that wasn't there before.How does Cassian Andor's character development in the series change his role in Rogue One? The hosts examine how knowing Cassian's backstory makes every decision and mannerism more impactful, particularly that opening scene where he shoots his informant Tivik. Understanding his journey from reluctant participant to committed rebel adds weight to moments that previously felt surface-level.What does Andor reveal about the Empire's political machinery? Beyond the obvious evil of planet-destroying superweapons, the series shows the propaganda, political maneuvering, and systematic oppression that drives people to rebellion. The hosts discuss how this context makes characters like Director Krennic more menacing and the rebels' desperation more understandable.How does the Rebel Alliance's internal structure affect the story? Seeing the fractured, bureaucratic nature of the rebellion in Andor makes the "going rogue" aspect of Rogue One more meaningful. The hosts explore how the series shows rebels literally rebelling against their own leadership.What's the real nature of Cassian and Jyn's relationship? The episode tackles online discourse about whether their connection was romantic, especially given Cassian's relationship with Bix in Andor. The hosts argue for a more nuanced interpretation that doesn't require choosing sides or diminishing either relationship. **************************************************************************This episode is a production of Star Wars Generations, a The Ethical Panda Podcast and part of the TruStory FM Entertainment Podcast Network.

Bix has 30 years' experience in the financial industry with various fortune 500 companies. He has dedicated his efforts over the last 15 years to exposing the long term manipulation of the gold and silver markets. Bix has worked closely with the Gold Anti-Trust Action Committee helping to pull the curtain away from the Cabal of International Bankers that has taken control of our free market system. He is the creator of the "Road to Roota Theory", RoadtoRoota.com Bix begins the conversation talking about the magic computer that Elon found. These computers create money out of thin air with no record. We are in the exposure phase of the plan. The people need to understand how the money is created and how the fraud is done. Trump is using tariffs to setup a parallel system. As more money comes in from taxes Trump will be able to transition us away from the CB. Gold, Bitcoin will be used for the new system. Liberation day is coming

Bix begins the conversation talking about  the events that we saw in the beginning of Jan. The fires in California are being pushed purposely. The economy is about to change, the old system is being removed and the new system is being introduced. The economy will be bumpy moving from the old and to the new. Trump has placed many safeguards into place to weather the storm. The [CB] will cease to exist the way we know it today, we will be going back to a people's economy.
