Send us a textA single choice can shape a lifetime. When Nigel Hughes told a careers panel he'd choose ballet over the Marines, he set a compass for courage, creativity, and connection that still points true decades later. We invite you into Nigel's “clearing”—a 1642 Suffolk cottage turned open house—where hedges host micro-moths, neighbours drop by for sugar-free Black Forest gâteaux, and leadership looks like tending land until it teaches you how to lead.The story travels far beyond the garden gate. In Papua New Guinea, Nigel and his partner used theatre—songs, stories, and dugout canoes—to help local communities see what was at stake as industrial logging closed in. Their work helped protect 2,000 square miles of primary rainforest and seeded a long-term push toward World Heritage status. He calls it global kinship, a respectful exchange that begins with listening rather than lecturing. Along the way, we meet mentors who challenged him to be “dangerous or dead,” and we hear how personal rituals—like watching evening primrose bloom at dusk—guided him through cancer and back into purpose.Closer to home, Nigel's philosophy shows in the details: a biodiverse, organic landscape that encouraged neighbouring farms to go chemical-free; a practice of meditation and deep listening; a belief that internal diversity—ballet in the morning, county rugby in the afternoon—creates stronger, more human leaders. He worries about phone addiction and the loss of face-to-face connection, yet remains relentlessly optimistic that attention, courage, and care can leave places and people better than we found them. If you're ready to rethink leadership as leaving more life behind than you took, this conversation will meet you where your feet are and invite you to stand for something that lasts.Subscribe, share with someone who loves nature and bold ideas, and leave a review to help others find the show.

In the early 1990s, the Lee family moved into their dream home deep in Colorado's Black Forest, five acres of quiet, towering pines, and distance from the world. What they found instead was a living nightmare. A home filled with orchestral music that played from empty rooms, chains dragging across empty floors, burning chemical fumes, and streaks of intelligent light moving through walls. Their security system was tripped over sixty times. Deputies witnessed the activity. Psychics claimed the land was a vortex. Others whispered about military experiments.For the Lees, the haunting wasn't a story, it was a siege. One that drained their savings, fractured their family, and left behind a legacy of tragedy.This is one of the most documented and most disputed hauntings in American history. And still, after decades, nothing about the Black Forest makes sense.Some mysteries linger. Some wounds don't close. And some houses never let go.Plus, the original story Lost in the pine - Chris takes a caretaker job in the Black Forest, but the woods don't just watch him—they remember him.hauntedamericanhistory.comPatreon- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/hauntedamericanhistory⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LINKS FOR MY DEBUT NOVEL, THE FORGOTTEN BOROUGHBarnes and Noble -   https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-forgotten-borough-christopher-feinstein/1148274794?ean=9798319693334AMAZON: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FQPQD68SEbookGOOGLE: https://play.google.com/store/books/details?id=S5WCEQAAQBAJ&pli=1KOBO: https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/the-forgotten-borough-2?sId=a10cf8af-5fbd-475e-97c4-76966ec87994&ssId=DX3jihH_5_2bUeP1xoje_SMASHWORD: https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/1853316 !!

On these dark and cold nights it would seem we have forgotten their purpose. We used to gather around the fire and tell stories, of better and of worse times. Of heroes and myths and monsters. I wish that would come back, so I am participating to the best of my ability. Here you will find a recounting of the Brothers Grimm 'The Golden Bird' and two new Black Forest inspired poems; "She Paints Flowers" inspired by Persephone and "Sentient Shadow" about the phenomenon most commonly called Dog Man.

An eyebrow-raising quote regarding King Charles.  Our insider Deep Crown advises extreem caution.Meanwhile, the Germans were in town for a full-scale Windsor extravaganza: a glittering state banquet, a Black Forest–inspired cocktail, and Princess Catherine stealing the show (again) in white-tie and a tiara. The King and Queen even capped the visit with a chaotic, charming game of giant snakes and ladders. And in a rare fashion twist, Kate and Camilla broke long-standing royal protocol by turning up in matching shades of blue. We break down the drama, the diplomacy, and why this state visit ended with declarations of “unbelievable” hospitality — and a very enthusiastic “Happy Christmas!” from President Steinmeier.Hear our new show "Crown and Controversy: Prince Andrew" here.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.

In this chilling episode, Jon Herold and Zak Paine take viewers deep into one of the darkest corners of global corruption as they continue their exploration into elite human-hunting networks and international organ-trafficking operations. Picking up where last week left off, Jon and Zak break down the disturbing disappearance of model Ryan Singleton and the haunting evidence suggesting his organs were harvested in the California desert. Their investigation stretches across continents, from Peru's online-dating organ-trafficking murder to Syrian black-market networks, to allegations involving Israeli pathologists, and even European aristocrats evading exposure. The hosts then push further into testimony from whistleblowers like Kathy O'Brien and Fiona Barnett, whose firsthand accounts place high-ranking political, royal, and religious figures inside hidden hunting lodges, ritual-abuse networks, and MK-Ultra programming systems. The episode also revisits Q-posts pointing to the Rothschilds' Black Forest estate sale and its potential connection to these networks. Tense, unfiltered, and relentlessly probing, Jon and Zak deliver a shocking look at power, secrecy, and the lengths elites may go to remain untouchable.

With the Black Forest, Lake Constance and Heidelberg Castle, Baden-Württemberg is an impressive federal state. Several years ago, The Länd wanted to show just that and launched one of Germany's most successful advertising campaigns. The stickers with the slogan “Nice here, but have you ever been to Baden-Württemberg?” were found everywhere, even on public buses in Berlin. Our reporter Kaspar spoke to those responsible and learned the story behind these stickers. - Mit dem Schwarzwald, dem Bodensee und dem Heidelberger Schloss ist Baden-Württemberg ein beeindruckendes Bundesland. Vor mehreren Jahren wollte The Länd genau das zeigen und startete eine der erfolgreichsten Werbekampagnen Deutschlands. Die Aufkleber mit dem Slogan „Nett hier, aber waren Sie schon mal in Baden-Württemberg?” waren überall zu finden, sogar auf Linienbussen in Berlin. Unser Reporter Kaspar hat mit den Verantwortlichen gesprochen und dabei die Geschichte hinter diesen Aufklebern erfahren.

Also, analysts will be watching to see if Thrive-owned firms actually succeed in building long-term profitable businesses using OpenAI's tech, or if the result is really just pumped up valuations based on speculative market potential.

In this episode of Superlative, host Ariel Adams, Founder of aBlogtoWatch, sits down with Felix Wallner, CEO of Hanhart, for a wide ranging conversation that explores the deep heritage, technical ingenuity, and modern evolution of one of Germany's most storied watch manufacturers. Felix discusses Hanhart's origins in the Black Forest and its longstanding ties to Swiss horology, the company's early breakthroughs in accessible mechanical stopwatches, and the military specification chronographs that later defined the brand's identity. He explains how Hanhart maintained its leadership in mechanical stopwatch production even as the rest of the industry moved toward wristwatches, and why the company continues to manufacture more than ninety percent of its stopwatch components in house today. Ariel and Felix also examine the modern landscape of German watchmaking, Hanhart's product first philosophy, and the engineering driven mindset that shapes everything from movement regulation to hardened HD12 steel, anti magnetic construction, and mono pusher modifications. The conversation reveals how a small authenticity focused brand balances heritage with innovation, how customer interaction directly informs product refinement, and how Hanhart preserves its identity in a competitive market without compromising on integrity or craftsmanship. Whether exploring the technical complexities behind mechanical timing instruments or the cultural nuances of German tool watch design, this episode offers a thoughtful and comprehensive look at what makes Hanhart a unique force within the industry.Check out Hanhart watches:- Website: https://www.hanhart.com/ - Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hanhart_watches/ SUPERLATIVE IS NOW ON YOUTUBE!

In 2015, while exploring the Black Forest, Weird Book researchers discovered a large hole in the ground and eventually uncovered a peculiar tape recording in a vast underground antechamber. Its origins remain unknown, though it appears to have been made by researchers who were once in the area. The contents of the recording are still hotly debated within both academic and paranormal circles.Cast:Mary: Harper Tacent Jacob: Matt Van HoveDevon: Lou SutcliffeEmma: Gina Sutcliffe Hosted on Acast.

My Story   Talk 31   Life after Mattersey (1) Welcome to Talk 31 in our series where I'm reflecting on God's goodness to me throughout my life. In this talk I shall begin to talk about our life and ministry after we left Mattersey. I'll explain why I decided to retire from Mattersey when I did and why we moved to Devon. I'll describe my continuing involvement with Mattersey for a further 12 years and conclude by outlining our wider ministry in Europe.   Why I decided to retire when I did In 2004 both Eileen and I had reached the age of 65. As was customary for women at that time, Eileen had retired as Matron of the College five years previously and I had told the Lord that, unless he clearly showed me that I was to stay on, I would retire as Principal when I was 65. First and foremost, we both wanted only to do what the Lord wanted and as we prayed about it became convinced that the time was right for our departure.   Our decision was based on several facts. The Lord had not given us any indication that I should stay on, and he had clearly shown me that the man who would be appointed as my successor would be the man of his choosing. And, as I mentioned in an earlier talk, I had already discussed the matter with other leaders who had agreed with me that the timing was right.   It was not as if my relationship with Mattersey was at an end. I was not retiring from Mattersey. I was retiring as its Principal.  Increasing requests for my ministry overseas had meant that a decision had to be made. I could not do justice to my role as Principal and accept so many invitations to minister elsewhere. But that did not mean that I could not continue to teach in the College as a visiting lecturer, and, at the kind invitation of successive principals, I continued to do so for another 12 years.   Why we moved to Devon Of course we had always known that we would have to move because the house we were living in belonged to the College and would be needed by my successor. And we knew that we would have to move immediately. That's why we were considering our options two or three years beforehand.   Colin Whittaker had written to me encouraging me to move right away from Mattersey and Eileen and I both felt that this would be wise. For one thing, the new principal would almost certainly want to make some changes and it would be easier both for him and us if we were not living close by and being asked by our friends in the local church if we approved! Apart from that, our first consideration, wherever we moved, was to be sure that there was a good local AoG church within easy reach where we could become members. Of course, there were plenty of places like that all over the country, so why did we choose Devon? One option might be to move near to one of our children, but as they were all serving the Lord in different parts of the country and might move on at any time, that might not be the wisest course of action.   So we felt it would be better both for them and for us if we were to move to a part of the country where the grandchildren would enjoy coming for their holidays. And we could think of no better place than Devon. I had been there on holiday as a teenager, and it was there that I had felt God calling me to the ministry. We knew that there were three AoG churches in Torbay, one in Torquay, one in Paignton, and one in Brixham, where Bob Hyde, one of our former students, was the full-time pastor and leader of the ministry team.  Bob had invited me down to minister on at least two occasions and we were very happy with the way the church was structured and with the spiritual atmosphere in the meetings.   Neither of the other churches had invited us to minister and so we knew very little about them, so we started to seriously consider fellowshipping with the Brixham assembly if we were able to afford to move into the Torbay area. I phoned Bob and asked if he would be happy about this, explaining that I was not looking for any position in the church and that my ministry would be further afield.   For two or three years we had been looking at property prices in the area and, as it was not convenient to make regular 600 mile round trips to view properties as they came on the market, decided on a new property that was to be built in Paignton. We were able to view one just like it and choose a plot where another was to be built – a four-bedroom house with spectacular views over open countryside and the sea, the nearest beach being only a ten-minute drive away.   We decided very quickly that this would be the house for us and, because of God's wonderful provision, were able to buy it in 2003 and move in immediately after we retired from Mattersey in July 2004. We spent ten very happy years there until we felt the Lord prompting us to move into Brixham to be nearer to the church in 2013, more of which later. Meanwhile I continued to teach at Mattersey and expand our travelling ministry overseas.   Continuing Ministry at Mattersey It was always a great joy to revisit Mattersey each year to teach various M.Th. courses, specialising on The Baptism in the Holy Spirit, Spiritual Gifts, and Divine Healing. Each time we stayed with our friends, William and Anthea Kay who were still living close to Mattersey and enjoyed renewed fellowship with them.   It was on one such occasion, in September 2005, that Eileen was involved in a serious accident. I was teaching a combined class of students in the College chapel when I was surprised to see Dr Dave Allen come in at the back. He walked quietly forward and approached me on the platform. Then he whispered to me,   You need to go. Eileen is all right, but she's been involved in an accident. I'll take over here. They'll tell you more in the office.   The accident had happened less than a mile outside Mattersey on the Retford Road. Someone, I don't remember who, drove me there immediately and the first thing I saw was a fire engine and an ambulance. I was so glad that Dave Allen had already told me that Eileen was all right, or I would almost certainly have feared the worst. I later discovered a voice-mail message on my phone, which had been switched onto silent while I was lecturing. It was Eileen saying,   David, I've been in an accident. You need to come. I can't breathe…   … and her voice petered out. I'm so grateful that I didn't receive that message until after I knew she was all right. It was the airbag that had saved her, but the pressure of it was causing the difficulty in her breathing.   The accident was not Eileen's fault. She was driving into Retford to do some shopping when another car coming in the opposite direction overtook a cyclist on a blind bend and crashed head-on into Eileen. As both cars were probably travelling at 50 m.p.h., the full force of the impact would have been about 100 m.p.h. Both cars were a write-off and the other driver was told that she would probably never walk again as a result of the injuries she suffered. Eileen escaped with two cracked ribs from which she recovered relatively quickly.   Our insurance company provided a courtesy car for us and a few days later we drove home to Devon after I had finished the series of lectures I had been giving. Fortunately, we had enough money to buy a replacement vehicle without waiting for the insurance settlement to come through, as less than a week later I was committed to teach an MA course at the Continental Theological Seminary in Brussels. We were both so grateful for the loving care of Trude and Sylve, twin sisters from our church in Brixham who looked after Eileen during my absence. I have always been amazed at Eileen's patience and fortitude in situations like this and the courage she displayed in face of adversity. I have already mentioned this when speaking about the accident which prevented her from travelling with me to Burkina Faso. But these qualities became even more evident in later life about which I will say more in a later talk.    A Wider Ministry Apart from my continuing input at Mattersey in the years that followed our departure to Devon in 2004, much of my ministry involved teaching in Bible Colleges and speaking at National Conferences overseas. Invitations came from former students and because of contacts through EPTA, PEF, and the PWF. Eileen was usually able to accompany me and between 2005 and 2012 I ministered in churches, colleges and conferences in Belgium, Ethiopia, Finland, France, Germany, Ghana, India, Ireland, Luxembourg, Madeira, Netherlands, Nigeria, Poland, Portugal, Réunion, Slovakia, South Africa, Sweden, and Ukraine. In this talk we'll just be referring to countries in Europe.   Some of these places I visited only once, while others, like Finland and Belgium, were countries where I taught in their Bible colleges annually. The subject was almost invariably connected with the work of the Holy Spirit – his person and work, the baptism in the Spirit, spiritual gifts, and healing. Of particular importance was the time I spent with pastors and national leaders sharing with them on how to encourage spiritual gifts in the local church.   Places I visited only once during these years were Sweden (05), Ukraine (06), Poland (07), and Slovakia (08). Eileen accompanied me on the trips to Sweden, for a week's teaching in Kristinehamn, and Slovakia, for an EPTA conference in the vicinity of Bratislava. I travelled unaccompanied to Poland to teach for a week in the Warsaw Theological Seminary and preach in the local Pentecostal church.   But when I visited Ukraine I was part of a three-man team from our church in Brixham.  As it was my first (and only) visit, Bob Hyde and Mark Goodyear, both of whom had been before, let me do most of the teaching. In all the churches we visited the subject they asked me to speak on was spiritual gifts. There, as is sadly the case in so many places elsewhere, there is very little teaching on this important subject, so when the opportunity was given in each church, at the end of the meeting the people flocked forward for prayer.   Visits I made to Ireland (06, 07, 08) were mainly in connection with my new role as a member of the Board of Governors of the Irish AoG Bible College in Greystones, a seaside village a few miles south of Dublin, where Daniel Caldwell, a former Mattersey student was now the Principal and where several other Mattersey graduates like Roy Leith and Sandy Tutty were now involved . I also had the privilege of preaching at their graduation service in September 07.   Eileen and I had often visited our friends John and Ann Leese in Luxembourg as we were en route for our holidays in France or Germany and were always grateful for their hospitality. And in 2006 I was asked to be the guest speaker at their church's weekend retreat held in Arlon in nearby Belgium. It was always a joy to renew fellowship with our friends from that wonderful church. I also preached there in September 2012 after teaching at CTS in Brussels and before driving on for a week's teaching in churches in the Paris area of France.   Over a period of about 20 years we regularly went to France for our holidays and I would often end up preaching in one of the ADD (AoG) churches there. I don't have detailed dates for these occasions, but I remember preaching in Auch, Bordeaux, Clermont Ferrand, Metz, Mourrenx, Toulouse, and Versailles, sometimes with less than 24 hours notice! But perhaps the most interesting part of France we ever visited was the Ile de la Réunion.  To which I will return next time.   The countries I visited most frequently were Germany (3x), Portugal (4x), Belgium (8x), and Finland (11x). With the exception of Germany, this was because I was annually teaching in their Bible Colleges. Having said that, in 2009 I did teach for a week at Kniebis in the Black Forest at the European Theological Seminary, a beautiful college belonging to the Church of God, where the EPTA conference was to be held the following week.   And in 2007, after attending a PEF related conference in Oslo, Norway, we flew to Germany to conduct seminars at the national pastors' conference of the BFP (Bund Freikirchlicher Pfingstgemeinden), the nearest equivalent to the AoG in Germany. It was also in Oslo that I bumped into Werner Fraas, the president of the Volksmission group of German churches and was invited to conduct a tour of their churches in southern Germany in 2008. Eileen always remembered this well as we slept in a least ten different beds during the course of two weeks' ministry there before driving on to the EPTA conference in Slovakia.   I first visited Portugal in 1982 for an EPTA conference, but it was many years later that I had the opportunity to teach in their Bible College and preach in their churches. Harry Osland was an American missionary who, at the time, was director of the Portuguese Bible College in Fanhoes near Lisbon. It so happened that in 2006 he was in an MA class I was teaching in Belgium at the Continental Theological Seminary and he asked me if I would be willing to come to teach in Portugal.   So for three years (07, 08, and 09) I spent a week or so in Portugal, teaching in their college and preaching in their churches. Harry not only organised the itinerary for me but also arranged for several of my books to be translated into Portuguese. He and his wife Beth became good friends and Eileen and I really appreciated their kindness and hospitality.   Another contact I had with Portugal was Reginaldo Azevedo de Melo, a Brazilian brother based in Portugal who came to Mattersey as one of our students. With the cooperation of Pastor Luis Reis, who knew me through PEF, after he graduated Reginaldo arranged an itinerary for me preaching in several churches.   Our trips the Portugal gave us a taste for Portuguese cuisine, something we also experienced in Madeira, a Portuguese overseas territory, and popular holiday destination because of its pleasant climate all the year round. We first went there in 2008 courtesy of our friends William and Anthea Kay who let us use their lovely time-share apartment. This inspired us to get our own time-share and we returned for three weeks in 2010 when I was asked to preach in the small AoG church in Funchal, about which I shall say more later.   My ministry in Belgium was due first to my work with the International Correspondence Institute, which I referred to in an earlier talk, and secondly, to my contact with CTS, the Continental Theological Seminary, through fellowship with friends in EPTA. Roland and Judy Dudley, American AoG missionaries, had led the Portuguese Bible College back in the eighties and had moved on to Sint-Pieters-Leeuw near Brussels to head up CTS. At Roland's invitation I taught on the Baptism in the Holy Spirit, Spiritual Gifts, and Divine Healing on their MA programme for eight consecutive years (2005-2012). I was often asked to preach in their chapel services when we saw many students receive the baptism in the Spirit. Eileen and I were housed in one of the well-equipped apartments in the college.   We always enjoyed our visits to Belgium and took the opportunity to admire the wonderful architecture in cities like Brussels and Ghent as well as preaching in churches there. And every year we were at CTS made sure that we made a visit to the outlet store of a nearby chocolate factory and bring back plenty in time for Christmas!   And finally Finland, a country we visited even more often that Belgium. Apart from my contact with Teuvo Valkama that I mentioned in an earlier talk, it was friends I met at PEF and EPTA meetings who were the main instigators of our visits to that beautiful country. I first met Arto Hamalainnen at the ICCOWE conference in Brighton in June 1991 but later got to know him much better as we both served on the PEF Presidium, he as secretary and I as vice-chairman. Arto was the Missions Director for the Finnish Pentecostal Churches and was responsible for recommending me for my first visit to Ethiopia in 2005 and my visit to India in 2010, about which I will say more next time.   But it was Pasi Parkkila, the Director of the Finnish Bible College, who was responsible for most of our visits to Finland. I first met Pasi at an EPTA conference – I don't remember which, possibly at CTS in 02 or in Nantwich in 04 – but he asked me if I would be willing to teach on their MA programme at Iso Kirja, which incidentally means The Great Book – what a name for a Bible College! So, apart from 2010 when I was too unwell to go, I taught at Iso Kirja the same subjects as I was teaching at CTS every year from 2005 to 2012. But apart from teaching at Iso Kirja I also visited Finland for the EPTA conference in 06 and was the guest speaker at their National Pastors' Conference both in 08 and 09.   Eileen invariably travelled with me on our visits to Iso Kirja when most years we were accommodated in a comfortable log cabin overlooking a beautiful lake.  Tuula, Pasi's wife, a primary school teacher, kindly loaned us her car throughout our visits which gave us a measure of independence while we were there enabling us to drive into the nearest town, Keuruu, or to Jyväskylä a larger town a little further away.   We were also able to visit a number of churches during our trips, including one at Seinäjoki where outstanding miracles of healing were regularly taking place in their meetings. From the reports I was hearing I could hardly imagine that there was anyone in the church left with a problem, but after my preaching some fifty or sixty people came forward for prayer, all expecting to be personally prayed for. And as we had to communicate through an interpreter this inevitable took twice as long as usual. An hour and a half after the end of the meeting I laid hands on the last person and was feeling in need of prayer myself. I was extremely tired and hungry but felt I had learnt a lesson – even when miracles are happening there will always be people in need of prayer.   Perhaps the final thing to say about Finland is that at the request of Aikamedia, the Finnish Publishing Department, at least four of my books have been published in Finnish. I am encouraged that my teaching in Finland still goes on even though I have not been there in person since 2012.   The Lord had certainly extended the scope of my ministry and confirmed that it was right for us to leave Mattersey when we did.   Next time we'll talk about our trips to Reunion, Africa and India.

Hey guys, I hope you all had a wonderful Spooky Season as we at IYHGYHE did! I have been working on a number of books including the 2027 Practical Distillers Almanac and have become quite taken with writing fairytales and poems expressing the Majik of this place where I live. I decided to narrate a few of these for you this evening. To be quite honest this is by far my most personal episode to date and I think represents the purist expression of my thoughts as of yet to be represented to the public.We all have limits and boundaries to overcome in life and I think I may have found a way to overcome mine and bring the various disperate pieces together into a cohesive whole in coming years. I do hope you will enjoy them and please, please share them. They will all see some published form in the near future. Here you will hear a folk tale about a hidden fountain that produces ardent spirits with the help of a Clurichon. Folk Majik I leaned from my grandparents. A poem about a folk distiller on the edge of town. How the highway meets the sky in the Black Forest, and my personal favorite, Felix, the maybe friendly feral, feline, familiar!A huge thank you to my friend Stephen Smith for inspiring me to pursue this path. 1.

You know those trips where everything teeters on the edge and then someone steps in and changes the story? That's the energy here: a cast member who gifts a last-minute Lightning Lane before revealing a tiny hometown connection, an advisor who tracks a looming Italian air traffic strike and coaches clients through a cross-terminal sprint, and a catamaran lesson in motion sickness that turns into a masterclass in what to pack and where to keep your valuables.We bring together a chorus of travel advisors with hard-won tales from Disney to Rome, the Maldives to the Black Forest, Bologna to Istanbul. You'll hear how a simple Instagram connection became a day of Parmesan, balsamic, and prosciutto tastings with local hosts, and why those relationships matter when you want authentic food tours and reliable guides. You'll laugh at the near-miss with a five-foot barracuda, nod along to a suitcase fished from the sea, and get the candid breakdown of a traditional Turkish hamam near Hagia Sophia—steam, marble, exfoliation, and the kind of calm that follows a shock of cold water.Threaded through every story is the real value of a travel advisor: real-time problem solving, local partnerships, itinerary triage, and empathy. Whether you're planning Disney with Lightning Lane strategy, navigating strikes across Europe, booking Mediterranean cruises, or weighing a hamam experience, these insights help you travel smarter and with less stress. We close with practical takeaways, links to each advisor's specialty, and an invitation to choose the right expert for your next adventure.If these stories made you smile or scribble notes, tap follow, share the episode with a friend who needs a smarter trip, and leave a quick review so more travelers can find us.

To be frank. This is different. Not just the topics and the complex nuances of Shaun's work and visionary perceptions around ‘herbal medicine', but how the podcast unfolds. From the start Shaun turns the question on me, for the right reason that he will share this podcast with friends, so they get a better sense of what we do at Soulhub.I have learnt to trust all my conversations and allow them space to feel safe. That whatever comes out of our mouths is what's meant to be said and heard in the world. For that reason, as Shaun knows, we love to flow with topics, not divert with the usual ‘here's another question', but rather, okay I can hear you're going somewhere you need to go with this, so let's just see. And as a result, we go deeper and deeper into how Shaun observes and absorbs himself into his natural surroundings. How we can use the plants and animals as local remedies to heal and transform our minds, body and spirit. Anything from a crows feather to ginseng. We talk about the seasons, the Pagan Wheel of the Year, life in the Black Forest in Germany and the sharing his poetry as an explanation of the emerging feelings from his private process. I'm particularly struck by his sensitivity to our connectedness. His ability to feel. That may sound flippant, but believe me, I rarely hear humans that can actually feel energy flow, feel sensations, deeply know if the answer is a ‘yes' or a ‘no'. And each of us have that capability, but we're so over-stimulated or disconnected by noise, self, tech disruptors, anything and everything. For me, this truly invites us to question. To listen and respond. If you listen carefully you'll hear, what I believe are old ancient ways. How do you think we found out about our medicines back before big ‘pharma' got involved. We tried things. For many of us, we may recall rubbing our nettle stings with dock leaves, or using witch-hazel for our swelling and itching bits. To learn this we had to try it, test, observe, and ultimately learn what healed us. So thanks Shaun for the exploration of the natural world around us. For reminding us to drop in, clean the window, and be. We'd both love to know what you heard, and if you have any questions for Shaun. Please do drop them in the comments below, or contact us directly. For more information on Shaun or to be added to his weekly email poetry posting, email him at shaunsutton2016@icloud.com and if you'd like to talk to him directly he's open to receiving calls on +44 7712605537. PS. As we listened back to the recording, Shaun wanted to further clarify the reading of faces, and the purpose is to learn of the condition or intentions of others. i.e. The person's actual left side reveals what may be really going on for the person at that time, whereas their right side is how they portray themselves to the world. Hope that helps. Get full access to Sole to Soul Inspiration by Soulhub at soulhub.substack.com/subscribe

Send us a textEpisode 303 Hannah Arends - Black Forest TroutIn this episode I speaks with Hannah Arends, an enthusiastic fly fisher from Germany, who shares her journey into the world of fly fishing. She tells me about her best fishing season yet, the balance between family life and her passion for fishing, and the importance of mentorship in her growth as an angler. Hannah talks about fly tying and why the pheasant tail nymph is her go-to choice for a day on the water. We look at some of her dream destinations and how she has met like-minded people through her use of social media.Fishing means so much to Hannah and I guarantee you'll smile while listening.

We spent time in the Black Forest, where innovation met inspiration at our latest industrial AI gathering. In this episode, we share stories—from empowering autistic talent in data annotation to the technical leaps in foundation models for time series. You'll hear from leading minds like Jakub Tomczak, who flew in from San Francisco to challenge what's possible in generative AI, and explore how the landscape is shifting from traditional machine learning to adaptive, context-rich automation. Join us as we question what makes AI truly intelligent, debate the role of human factors, and look ahead to the next wave of industrial transformation. If you're curious about how AI is evolving in real factories, how new job profiles are emerging, or why continuous learning and time series matter more than ever, this conversation is for you.

DC talks about the three weeks he and his wife Katrinka spent at Dharma Sangha's Zen Center in the Black Forest, a visit with Vanja Palmers at his home on Mt. Rigi in Switzerland just below Felsentor, the Zen practice center he founded. And more.

In 2015, while exploring the Black Forest, Weird Book researchers discovered a large hole in the ground and eventually uncovered a peculiar tape recording in a vast underground antechamber. Its origins remain unknown, though it appears to have been made by researchers who were once in the area. The contents of the recording are still hotly debated within both academic and paranormal circles.Mary voiced by Harper TacentJacob voiced by Matt Van HoveEmma voiced by Gina SmithDevon voiced by Lou Sutcliffe Hosted on Acast.

Cozy is the new zombie. Or Cthulhu. Seriously -- just keep your eye on those store shelves (especially over the next few months), and you'll likely see so many new board games themed around the art of non-conflict. Maybe you'll be cuddling up with kitties. Or you'll be sitting around, peacefully matching tiles at your own pace. Or you'll be arranging books around your home in ways that please only you, as in our guest's co-designed A Place for All My Books. Alex Cutler joins the podcast this week to talk about what exactly makes a game "cozy." Plus we lean into his experience as a developer (not just designer) to learn what makes for a good product. Sure, great gameplay is a must -- but what else will make gamers want to make that purchase?

RANDOM ATTACKS TAKE PLACE IN MULTIPLE RECREATIONAL AREAS AROUND THE USA.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE----- -International Events-Global: Around the world, the push for more censorship and a reduction of privacy continues to grow in size and scope. In the United Kingdom, politicians have called for an expansion of the Online Safety act to include generic search engines such as Google. Following the implementation of the Online Safety Act, several other EU member states have also voiced their support for similar efforts in their nations, which include: Italy, Greece, Denmark, Spain, and France.Germany: Outrage has resulted from a recent push in Bavaria to tax groundwater. As of January 1, 2026, residents of the region will be taxed 10 cents per cubic meter of groundwater that is pumped out of the ground on one's own property.Analyst Comment: Once various entities around the world realize that this tax will just result in general discontent, and not an outright open rebellion, this tactic will expand greatly to be utilized by other nations.Ireland: New footage has come to light regarding an Islamic terror attack that took place in Dublin on Tuesday. The video of the attack confirms that the assailant shouted Islamic phrases during the attack, in which he approached a police officer from behind, stabbing him with a large knife.Analyst Comment: Continuing the trend of European media, all references to this attack strategically omitted all references to terrorism, with all media groups calling this incident an "unprovoked attack" and protecting the identity of the terrorist. This half-truth omits the detail that the individual was attempting to commit an act of jihad.-HomeFront-Washington D.C. - Various trade deals remain in development with the White House granting Mexico an extension regarding the implementation of a deal with the United States. South Korea also finalized their re-negotiation of trade policy with the United States yesterday.North Carolina: A shooting was reported at the Avalon Fishing Pier in Kill Devil Hills this afternoon. One person was killed and another wounded during the engagement, with the shooter egressing from the area before being immediately captured nearby. No further details have been provided on this shooting, or what prompted the incident in what is normally a low-crime area.Colorado: This afternoon an ICE-involved shooting was reported in the Black Forest area near Colorado Springs. Federal authorities state that immigration enforcement operations were underway throughout the area this afternoon, when two illegals in a vehicle attempted to ram an officer while trying to escape the scene. One agent engaged the vehicle with small arms, which was later abandoned by the assailants. The status of the illegals remains unknown, and a significant police presence has been noted throughout the area.Georgia: Four people have been arrested for an attack that took place at the Low Gap Campground last weekend, and more details pertaining to the case have also come to light. A man and his daughter were fishing when four individuals hit him over the head with a glass bottle, knocking him unconscious and causing severe bleeding. The man's daughter was also attacked, but managed to stab her attackers with her knife, causing the attackers to flee.Arkansas: An assailant has been arrested in conjunction with a double-homicide investigation at  Devil's Den State Park, following the discovery of the remains of two hikers on a trail in the park on Saturday. The attacker has been identified as Andrew James McGann, who was arrested today after confessing to the murders.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: These attacks are an unfortunate reminder
