Louis-Carl Vignon, Président de Ford France - L'automobile US en France depuis plus d'un siècle Je reçois aujourd'hui Louis Carl Vignon, Président de Ford France. Qui ne connaît pas Ford ? Personne. Mais connaissez-vous leurs véhicules ? Et savez-vous ce que représente Ford en France et en Europe ?  Avec Louis-Carl, j'ai rencontré un homme à l'opposé des hommes que je connais déjà dans cette industrie folle qu'est le secteur automobile. Le secteur auto est l'un des plus difficiles, des plus complexes, des plus compétitifs au monde. Pour être à la direction de ces géants dont les CA dépasse souvent les 100Md€ - le CA de Ford dans le monde fut de 187Md$ l'année dernière - , il faut des hommes et des femmes hors normes.  Souvent, pas toujours, ils sont difficiles d'accès. Souvent, pas toujours, même après leur avoir serré la main, ils ne sont pas les plus commodes. Louis-Carl est loin de tous ces clichés même si son métier n'est pas moins difficile que celui de ses confrères. Vous vous en rendrez compte en nous écoutant. Aujourd'hui, nous parlons de Ford en France, en Europe et aux US. Nous parlons des concurrents de Ford dans le monde. Nous parlons de l'avènement de l'électrique, des obligations réglementaires qui façonnent déjà le marché européen. Nous parlons des véhicules chinois aussi. Bref, nous parlons du monde automobile actuel et de celui qui vient.  Passionnant. Suivre Louis Carl sur LinkedInSi cette nouvelle interview vous a plu, parlez-en autour de vous, notez 5 ⭐ le podcast (Spotify, Deezer, ApplePodcast...) et rédigez un avis.N'hésitez pas à m'écrire sur LinkedIn, à vous abonner à notre Newsletter hebdo et à notre nouvelle chaîne YoutubeToutes les Histoires d'Entreprises sont également disponibles sur histoiresentreprises.com et sur le site de bluebirds.partners, site de la communauté d'indépendants que j'anime et qui conseille ou remplace des dirigeants. Un podcast co-réalisé avec Agnès GuillardHébergé par Ausha.

Allie breaks down Albert Mohler's proposed “Truth and Unity Amendment” to the SBC constitution that would reinforce the biblical standard prohibiting women from filling any pastoral roles in a Southern Baptist congregation. She examines whether Christians should ask God for signs — like bluebirds — during decision-making, weighing Scripture against modern practices and emphasizing the sufficiency of God's word. Finally, Allie responds to pro-abortion claims that twist the Bible's silence on the issue, affirming the clear biblical value of unborn life. Allie ends the episode on a high note, interviewing Fox News host Ainsley Earhardt about her new book, "America, I'm So Glad You Were Born," exploring faith, patriotism, and raising the next generation with truth and hope.

A male Eastern Bluebird stands on a wooden nestbox attached to a fence post. The bluebird's song – and his alert presence - assert his claim to this territory. In the mid-20th Century, the numbers of bluebirds in the Northeast declined to the lowest level ever, due largely to nesting competition from non-native starlings and House Sparrows. Then, conservation groups stepped up, setting out “bluebird trails” of nestboxes. Thanks to groups like the North American Bluebird Society, we can still count on bluebirds to welcome the arrival of spring.

[Rediffusion] Valérian Giesz, co-fondateur de Quandela - Une vision européenne du quantiqueIl y a quelques mois, nous recevions Valérian Giesz, co-fondateur de Quandela, la pépite française de l'ordinateur quantique photonique.On vous avait dit que ça allait vite.Depuis,  « Lucy », l'ordinateur quantique photonique made in France le plus puissant au monde a été inauguré au CEA.Et Quandela et Safran viennent de lancer un projet de recherche commun sur la simulation quantique des moteurs d'avions.Annoncée le 7 mai dernier, cette collaboration doit explorer l'apport potentiel des algorithmes quantiques à la modélisation des écoulements de fluides.Ça vallait bien une rediffusion de cet épisode passionnant.

Matthieu HEDE, Président groupe FMH & MH industries Président UIMM LIMOUSIN - L'industrie 2026 dans les yeuxNe me demandez pas comment je suis tombé un jour sur MH Industries. Ne me demandez pas non plus comment j'en suis venu à contacter son Président Matthieu Hede que j'interviewe aujourd'hui. Je ne les connaissais pas avant de vouloir vous les faire découvrir. C'est la chance je pense qui m'a fait rencontrer Matthieu. Aucun doute, nous nous reverrons. Comme souvent dans ce podcast, MH Industries est industrielle, ancrée dans nos territoires et familiale. Comme toujours, l'histoire de MH Industries devrait vous plaire.  Moi, ce qui m'a plu au fond dans cet épisode, c'est surtout l'homme. Je suis parfois en colère quand j'observe la destruction systématique de notre industrie. Mathieu, lui, est bien plus cash que moi. Lui connaît la vraie vie, celle qui vous fait dire qu'un jour il faudra aller en Espagne ou ailleurs parce qu'en France, cela ne devient tout simplement plus possible. Il y avait 1000 fonderies en France dans les années 80. Il n'y en a plus que 200. Ce chiffre continue de décroître. « Créer une usine devient mission impossible » nous dit Matthieu. L'amour, cela va dans les deux sens. Nous aimons notre pays. Aucun doute, Matthieu aussi l'aime. Il est plus que temps que la France prouve à ses industriels qu'elle les aime en retour.  Et nous le savons tous, il n'y a pas d'amour, il n'y a que des preuves d'amour. Suivre Matthieu sur LinkedIn Si cette nouvelle interview vous a plu, parlez-en autour de vous, notez 5 ⭐ le podcast (Spotify, Deezer, ApplePodcast...) et rédigez un avis.N'hésitez pas à m'écrire sur LinkedIn, à vous abonner à notre Newsletter hebdo et à notre nouvelle chaîne YoutubeToutes les Histoires d'Entreprises sont également disponibles sur histoiresentreprises.com et sur le site de bluebirds.partners, site de la communauté d'indépendants que j'anime et qui conseille ou remplace des dirigeants. Un podcast co-réalisé avec Agnès Guillard©Nathalie-OundjanHébergé par Ausha.

Summary In this episode, Ashley Kennedy and I discuss the results of her research on the diets of nestling eastern bluebirds. Ashley used GoPro cameras located on active bluebird nestboxes to take pictures of what eastern bluebirds were bringing back to the nest to feed their young. Over the course of several seasons, she obtained over 8,000 pictures which clearly showed food being brought back to the nest.    3 things you'll learn from this episode: The most common food items brought back to eastern bluebird nestlings, plus some less common and very unexpected prey items. Some of the reasons why caterpillars are such an important food source for baby birds. Insights into eastern bluebird food preferences.   Today's guest Ashley Kennedy is an entomologist who recently published her research on what eastern bluebird nestlings eat.    Resources: Ashley's research  The Backyard Ecologist's Newsletter  Backyard Ecology™ Community    Thank you!

Sophie Robert-Velut, CEO des Laboratoires Expanscience/Mustela - La science dans la peau Quand on a un jour changé les couches de son bébé, on connaît Mustela. Vous connaissez donc la marque phare du Groupe que dirige mon invitée du jour, Sophie Robert Velue. Je me rappelle bien de cette époque pas si lointaine où le week-end venu, mon épouse qui avait tout géré à la maison ou presque pendant la semaine me demandait de prendre le relais. Pendant quelques mois, je me suis donc occupé en continu le samedi et le dimanche de la propreté de nos deux aînés. Mes week-ends avançaient au rythme d'un change par heure. Et évidemment, cela passait le plus souvent par un instant crème hydratante. Si je prends le temps de vous raconter cette anecdote personnelle en introduction, ce n'est pas pour crâner que j'ai été ce père moderne s'étant occupé d'hydrater les fesses de ses enfants quand ils étaient bébés. Tous les pères ou presque s'y sont mis. Non, c'est pour vous dire que l'épisode qui vient parle de produits géniaux inventés par deux copains à la sortie de la guerre et surtout qu'il parle de nous. Nous quand nous étions bébés, puis enfants, nous devenus adultes à nous soigner la peau, nous devenus parents puis grands-parents à détecter nos premières rides et à tenter d'attirer le regard.  On y parle de notre peau, cette drôle d'armure pas tout à fait prête quand nous sortons du ventre de notre mère et qui tout au long de notre vie sera là à nous protéger. L'histoire d'Expanscience et de Mustela, c'est aussi l'histoire de notre peau. Suivre Sophie sur LinkedInSi cette nouvelle interview vous a plu, parlez-en autour de vous, notez 5 ⭐ le podcast (Spotify, Deezer, ApplePodcast...) et rédigez un avis.N'hésitez pas à m'écrire sur LinkedIn, à vous abonner à notre Newsletter hebdo et à notre nouvelle chaîne YoutubeToutes les Histoires d'Entreprises sont également disponibles sur histoiresentreprises.com et sur le site de bluebirds.partners, site de la communauté d'indépendants que j'anime et qui conseille ou remplace des dirigeants. Un podcast co-réalisé avec Agnès Guillard© Photo Alain GoulardHébergé par Ausha.

José Saloio, PDG de Floa - Devenir leader du paiement fractionnéJe suis reçu aujourd'hui en bord de Garonne, à Bordeaux, par José Saloio, PDG de Floa. Nous devons beaucoup à Floa qui pourtant se fait discrète comme beaucoup de sociétés B2B. Elle est leader en France et en Europe du paiement fractionné. Le paiement en 3 fois ou 4 fois, le « Buy Now Pay Later », c'est elle. 10% des paiements en ligne en France sont réalisés en BNPL. Pour les marchands proposant l'échelonnement des paiements, 25% des transactions passent par le BNPL. Pour le dire autrement, le paiement fractionné est devenu incontournable. Il n'y a pas si longtemps encore, quand vendant vos produits et vos services à vos clients vous leurs proposiez le BNPL, vous vous démarquiez de la concurrence. Aujourd'hui, à ne pas le proposer, vous vous démarquez aussi, mais pas dans le bon sens. Quel est le modèle économique de Floa ? Comment fait-elle pour vous autoriser un délai de paiement en moins quelques milli-secondes ? Comment est née puis a grandi la société ? Comment continue-t-elle de grandir ? Pourquoi sommes-nous si nombreux à échelonner nos paiements ? C'est à ces questions et à quelques autres que répond mon invité.  Plongez avec moi dans nos nouvelles habitudes de consommation. Comme souvent quand on parle consommation de masse, on parle société et on parle développement durable. Voilà un épisode 360 tout à fait passionnant. Bonne écoute. Suivre José sur LinkedIn Découvrir le dernier baromètre Kantar qui s'intéresse à l'évolution de l'utilisation des solutions de paiement en France Si cette nouvelle interview vous a plu, parlez-en autour de vous, notez 5 ⭐ le podcast (Spotify, Deezer, ApplePodcast...) et rédigez un avis.N'hésitez pas à m'écrire sur LinkedIn, à vous abonner à notre Newsletter hebdo et à notre nouvelle chaîne YoutubeToutes les Histoires d'Entreprises sont également disponibles sur histoiresentreprises.com et sur le site de bluebirds.partners, site de la communauté d'indépendants que j'anime et qui conseille ou remplace des dirigeants. Un podcast co-réalisé avec Agnès GuillardHébergé par Ausha.

My guest today is Lynda Baldauf, co-founder of the Swedish dishcloth Three Bluebirds. With mindfulness, humility and an open heart, Lynda and her Finland-born husband Lasse, started their company in 2013. Their Eco-friendly cleaning cloth replaces paper towels, rags and sponges, absorbs 20 times its weight and lasts 6-9 months. The cloth is made in the US with sustainable wood pulp, certified organic cotton and water-based inks so they are 100% compost-able with zero waste.  You never know what a chance meeting will offer. I'm grateful that the stars aligned for me to meet Lynda in a crowded NYC holiday market; it was a gift to be in her kind presence and resonate with her positive energy. In addition to being inspired by Lynda's conscientious dish cloth, I was inspired by Lynda, as I learned about her life, her choices, her adventures and the grace and integrity infused in all she has experienced. I was delighted to meet this lovely woman, as well as incorporate a tangible product like Three Bluebirds Swedish dishcloth. Check out the Show Notes for a link to her website and join me in doing our part to protect and care for our planet.  Enjoy the podcast! Links: www.threebluebirds.com

Kevin Machefert, CEO du Groupe Machefert - Diriger un groupe hôtelier après la tempêteC'est un coup de cœur que nous vous présentons aujourd'hui. Je discute dans une suite de luxe en face du Louvre avec Kevin Machefert qui dirige le Groupe Machefert. Machefert opère une petite vingtaine d'hôtels haut de gamme ou très haut de gamme.

We've all seen the jokes about getting older and the requirement to get into birds. But you know, they ARE fascinating. Today, we talk with Kelly & John Gjovic, the owners of Wild Birds Unlimited in Edgewater, who were a wealth of information and likely the impetus for my next hobby! After a career in the retail and restaurant industry, they decided to make a more relaxing move. Nature is in John's DNA; hailing from North Dakota, he fondly recalls outings with his father and seeing the wealth of birds! While we are not North Dakota, we do have a wealth of birds in the area from finches, to robins, to bluebirds, to cardinals, and they all have different "personalities." And Wild Birds Unlimited has what is needed to bring it all together to make your yard attractive to our flying friends! Stop in and see for yourself and pick up some fresh seed, maybe a bird house or feeder, or go high-tech with a smart bird house and witness the circle of life! And don't forget the Daily Savings Club! But first... Have a listen! PS: On March 7th, Wild Birds Unlimited will host a free seminar with ornithologist Judy Wink, from the Chesapeake Bay Environmental Center (CBEC), to talk all about Bluebirds. Mark the calendar!

It's a double dose of delirium! We've packaged both the Cricket and the Genie tracks together, as they were released as one to promote the release of Monolith of Phobos, and these two tracks have always been performed together at every single CLD show thus far. Josh's longtime pal Jerry Roscher drops by the pod to discuss why these tracks and this album as a whole speak to him so deeply; for him, it's the sense of melody and songwriting that Sean Lennon brings and how it incorporates with all things Claypool. Great talk about the musical influences and the lyrical narrative!Find Jerry's band, Bluebirds:https://bluebirdsmusic.org/BandcampYoutubeGet involvedInstagramFacebookEmailBurn your money

Psalm 31:19–20 (NKJV)Oh, how great is Your goodness,Which You have laid up for those who fear You,Which You have prepared for those who trust in YouIn the presence of the sons of men!You shall hide them in the secret place of Your presenceFrom the plots of man;You shall keep them secretly in a pavilionFrom the strife of tongues.This is one of those Psalms where David is in the middle of deep distress, yet he still remembers the goodness of God and finds refuge in the secret place of His presence.I'll be honest — I don't always wake up with Mr. Bluebird on my shoulder. Some days it feels more like a raven has taken up residence on my head. But David shows us that God's goodness isn't tied to our mood or our circumstances.David came to God in every state. He didn't wait until he felt presentable, and there is so much for us to learn from that kind of faith.I'll close with the song, "Come Away."If you would like to support this podcast with a monthly or one-time gift, thank you!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.sherriyoungward.com/support⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠To find out about upcoming gatherings and new projects, please join my email list at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.sherriyoungward.com

Is Cardiff City's immediate return to the Championship an inevitability? The Bluebirds are now 10 points clear of the League One play-off places after a comfortable midweek win over Barnsley, prompting comparisons with Birmingham's march to the title last season.Life is far harder for Newport County, who failed to build on the feelgood factor of a rare win on Saturday by losing to fellow strugglers Accrington Stanley on Tuesday. Manager Christian Fuchs might insist his team are not in a relegation battle, but the coming games - starting with Bristol Rovers - could define their whole season.Wrexham showed their winning mentality with two added time goals to snatch a win at Queens Park Rangers that lifts them to the top six in the Championship for the first time this season. But an inexplicable handball and a missed open goal continued Swansea City's away woes.And Iwan and Sam share their Welsh Cup memories as the competition reaches the last eight - with several lower league clubs dreaming of lifting the cup and booking an unforgettable ticket to Europe.

In this episode of the Scarf Bergara Wore, Steve is joined by Si from the Cardiff City World Podcast to dissect a massive clash at the top of League One. With Brian Barry-Murphy's Bluebirds sitting pretty at the summit, we dive deep into the tactical "revelation" that has transformed Cardiff into a possession powerhouse. We discuss the stability under the Tan and Dalman era and why Yousef Salech is the man Stockport must stop. On the flip side, we explore whether the 4th-placed Hatters can exploit Cardiff's vulnerability to the counter-attack to keep their back-to-back promotion dreams alive. From shared legends like Anthony Pilkington to score predictions, this is your ultimate guide to Saturday's showdown at the Cardiff City Stadium.Sign up to get ad free and exclusive special guest podcasts, a monthly giveaway plus first dibs on live events with former players (no extra cost!).

Life with Cardiff City has started well for Brian Barry-Murphy. The Irishman has a 65% win ratio from his first 20 games. The Bluebirds have spent the majority of the season at the top of League One. A standout win over Wrexham has secured a place in the last eight of the EFL Cup against Chelsea. And host of talented youngsters are starting show their true potential. No wonder he's in relaxed mood as he discusses his first four months in charge, and how he relishes the "refreshingly honest" demands given to him by the owner Vincent Tan.

All 50 states and the District of Columbia have official birds. To become a state bird, it helped to be familiar, colorful, and have a punchy song. The Northern Cardinal perches as state bird in seven eastern states, the Western Meadowlark in six western states. Bluebirds — like this Western Bluebird — and goldfinches are mascots of another seven. The country's most insistent songster, the Northern Mockingbird, holds down five states. And Washington, D.C.'s official bird? The shy Wood Thrush! Find out which bird is your state bird.More info and transcript at BirdNote.org.Want more BirdNote? Subscribe to our weekly newsletter.

An arrest was made in Florida for Jonathan Flendernik in connection with the fire. Video evidence suggests the LA Fire Department failed to fully extinguish the initial fire, which spread through root systems. In business news, the family-owned In-N-Out chain, known for high profits and employee treatment, is expanding with five new stores. The Boring Company's Prufrock tunneling machine is operating in Las Vegas. 915-930 Mixed Economic Signals and High-Tech Development in Lancaster County GUEST NAME: Jim McTague Jim McTague reports on Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, which is introducing high-tech industry by building two data centers on the former RR Donnelley printing plant site.

Consumers are cautious, engaging in "inflation shopping." 930-945 The Perpetual Conflict Over Executive Power and the Rise of Lawfare GUEST NAME: Professor Richard Epstein Professor Richard Epstein analyzes the perpetual clash between executive and congressional power, particularly regarding the Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974. He notes the Roberts court generally protects executive power. The dispute over fund impoundment, seen in Department of State et al. versus AIDS Vaccine Advocacy Coalition, reflects deep polarization, hindering compromise. Epstein criticizes the use of lawfare, exemplified by the indictments of Letitia James and James Comey, stating it fails long-term and leads to cycles of violence and discord. 945-1000 The Perpetual Conflict Over Executive Power and the Rise of Lawfare GUEST NAME: Professor Richard Epstein Professor Richard Epstein analyzes the perpetual clash between executive and congressional power, particularly regarding the Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974.

He argues the US should stay to enforce the NPT by clarifying red lines, justifying the bombing of nuclear facilities. Sokolski also discusses the proposed Golden Dome defense system, intended to protect the Western Hemisphere against missiles and drones. The viability of the system, particularly regarding Low Earth Orbit defenses, remains unclear and requires greater Congressional buy-in. 1015-1030 NPT Enforcement and the Golden Dome Defense Concept GUEST NAME: Henry Sokolski Henry Sokolski, executive director of the Non-proliferation Policy Education Center, debates whether the US should abandon the 1970 Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), citing foreign criticism and industry constraints.

He recalls the 1980s Ronald Reagan tax cut where promised spending cuts never materialized. The deficit is the annual gap between taxes and spending, accumulating into the national debt. Michel identifies a "deficit hawk coalition" split between deficit hawks (agnostic on revenues/spending) and budget hawks (concerned with government size), advocating for spending cuts to solve the crisis. Entitlement programs like Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid are the root of fiscal problems. 1045-1100 The US Fiscal Crisis: Spending Cuts Are the Only Way Out GUEST NAME: Adam Michel Adam Michel, director of tax policy at the Cato Institute, discusses the US fiscal crisis stemming from large deficits and overwhelming debt.

The consensus, achieved by expanding the negotiating scope, is that established states are preferable to terrorist operations. 1215-1230 Italy's Rising Diplomatic Status Amid Economic Headwinds GUEST NAME: Lorenzo Fiori Lorenzo Fiori details Italy's enhanced diplomatic role, noting that Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni has been invited to the Israel-Gaza peace agreement signing. Italian carabinieri are already training local police near the Rafah border. Meloni has friction with French President Macron over migration policy and Africa. Italy's production index has fallen below mid-2021 levels due to weak internal demand and the highest energy costs in Europe.

The Bluebirds are PURE JOY for me.

From muddy fields, makeshift goalposts, and a sport just beginning to take root in the valleys and towns of Wales.

It's the beginning of a new era at Cardiff City and Newport County as both clubs prepare for life under new, and inexperienced, managers. The Bluebirds, playing in the third level of English football for the first time in 21 years, have opted for the blue side of Manchester by appointing for former Manchester City youth coach Brian Barry-Murphy. The Exiles, meanwhile, have gone for the red side by choosing former Manchester United youth coach Dave Hughes. Both clubs have ample room for improvement after hugely disappointing performances last season. But is there room for optimism this season?Wrexham and Swansea have another week's preparation for the start of the Championship season - and both have been making plenty of headlines over the summer. The Dragons have showed their promotion intent again with some eye-catching signings, and they're not finished yet. The Swans took everyone by surprise with the announcement that Snoop Dogg has become a co-owner as an investor. It's building up nicely to be another fascinating season for Welsh football.

Didn't I write this when Indy Pass added Bluebird back in 2022?:Wait a minute, what the f**k exactly is going on here? I have to walk to the f*****g top? Like a person from the past? Before they invented this thing like a hundred years ago called a chairlift? No? You actually ski up? Like some kind of weird humanoid platypus Howard the Duck thing? Bro I so did not sign up for this s**t. I am way too lazy and broken.Yup, that was me. But if you've been here long enough, you know that making fun of things that are hard is my way of making fun of myself for being Basic Ski Bro. Really I respected the hell out of Bluebird, its founders, and its skiers, and earnestly believed for a moment that the ski area could offer a new model for ski area development in a nation that had mostly stopped building them:Bluebird has a lot of the trappings of a lift-served ski area, with 28 marked runs and 11 marked skin tracks, making it a really solid place to dial your uphill kit and technique before throwing yourself out into the wilderness.I haven't really talked about this yet, but I think Bluebird may be the blueprint for re-igniting ski-area development in the vast American wilderness. The big Colorado resorts – other than Crested Butte and Telluride – have been at capacity for years. They keep building more and bigger lifts, but skiing needs a relief valve. One exists in the smaller ski areas that populate Colorado and are posting record business results, but in a growing state in a finally-growing sport, Bluebird shows us another way to do skiing.More specifically, I wrote in a post the following year:Bluebird fused the controlled environment and relative safety of a ski area with the grit and exhilaration of the uphill ski experience. The operating model, stripped of expensive chairlifts and resource-intensive snowmaking and grooming equipment, appeared to suit the current moment of reflexive opposition to mechanized development in the wilderness. For a moment, this patrolled, avalanche-controlled, low-infrastructure startup appeared to be a model for future ski area development in the United States. …If Bluebird could establish a beachhead in Colorado, home to a dozen of America's most-developed ski resorts and nearly one in every four of the nation's skier visits, then it could act as proof-of-concept for a new sort of American ski area. One that provided a novel experience in relative safety, sure, but, more important, one that could actually proceed as a concept in a nation allergic to new ski area development: no chairlifts, no snowmaking, no grooming, no permanent buildings.Dozens of American ski markets appeared to have the right ingredients for such a business: ample snow, empty wilderness, and too many skiers jamming too few ski areas that grow incrementally in size but never in number. If indoor ski areas are poised to become the nation's next-generation incubators, then liftless wilderness centers could create capacity on the opposite end of the skill spectrum, redoubts for experts burned out on liftlines but less enthusiastic about the dangers of touring the unmanaged backcountry. Bluebird could also act as a transition area for confident skiers who wanted to enter the wilderness but needed to hone their uphill and avalanche-analysis skills first. …Bluebird was affordable and approachable. Day tickets started at $39. A season pass cost $289. The ski area rented uphill gear and set skin tracks. The vibe was concert-tailgate-meets-#VanLife-minimalism-and-chill, with free bacon famously served at the mid-mountain yurt.That second bit of analysis, unfortunately, was latched to an article announcing Bluebird's permanent closure in 2023. Co-founder Jeff Woodward told me at the time that Bluebird's relative remoteness – past most of mainline Colorado skiing – and a drying-up of investors drove the shutdown decision.Why now was a good time for this interviewBluebird's 2023 closure shocked the ski community. Over already? A ski area offering affordable, uncrowded, safe uphill skiing seemed too wedded to skiing's post-Covid outdoors-hurray moment to crumble so quickly. Weren't Backcountry Bros multiplying as the suburban Abercrombie and Applebee's masses discovered the outside and flooded lift-served ski areas? I offered a possible explanation for Bluebird's untimely shutdown:There is another, less optimistic reading here. Bluebird may have failed because it's remote and small for its neighborhood. Or we are witnessing perception bump up against reality. The popular narrative is that we are in the midst of a backcountry resurgence, quantified by soaring gear sales and perpetually parked-out trailheads. Hundreds of skiers regularly skin up many western ski areas before the lifts open. But the number of skiers willing to haul themselves up a mountain under their own power is miniscule compared to those who prefer the ease and convenience of a chairlift, which, thanks to the megapass, is more affordable than at any point in modern ski history.Ski media glorifies uphilling. Social media amplifies it. But maybe the average skier just isn't that interested. You can, after all, make your own ice cream or soda or bread, often at considerable initial expense and multiples of the effort and time that it would take to simply purchase these items. A small number of people will engage in these activities out of curiosity or because they possess a craftsman's zeal for assembly. But most will not. And that's the challenge for whoever takes the next run at building a liftless ski area.Still, I couldn't stop thinking about my podcast conversation the year prior with Lonie Glieberman, founder of the improbable and remote Mount Bohemia. When he opened the experts-only, no-snowmaking, no-grooming freefall zone in Michigan's Upper Peninsula in 2000, the ski industry collectively scoffed. It will never work, they promised, and for years it didn't. Boho lost money for a long time. But Glieberman persisted and, through a $99-season-pass strategy and an aggressively curated fist-bump image, Boho now sits at the aspirational pinnacle of Midwest skiing, a pilgrimage spot that is so successful it no longer sells Saturday day-time lift tickets.Could Bluebird have ascended to similar cult destination given more time? I don't know. We might never know.But shortly after Bluebird's shuttering, Erik Lambert, who co-founded Bluebird with Woodward, reached out to me. He's since helped with The Storm's digital-marketing efforts and knows the product well. With two years to process the rapid and permanent unraveling of an enterprise that had for a time consumed his life and passion, he felt ready to tell his version of the Bluebird story. And he asked if we could use The Storm to do it.What we talked aboutHow an East Coast kid developed a backcountry obsession; White Grass, West Virginia; the very long starter-kit list for backcountry skiing; Bluebird as backcountry primer; Jackson Hole as backcountry firestarter; why a nation as expansive and wild as the United States has little suitable land for ready ski area development; a 100-page form to secure a four-day Forest Service permit; early Bluebird pilots at Mosquito Pass and Winter Park; a surprising number of beginners, not just to backcountry, but to skiing; why the founders envisioned a network of Bluebirds; why Bluebird moved locations after season one; creating social scaffolding out of what is “inherently an anti-social experience”; free bacon!; 20 inches to begin operating; “we didn't know if people would actually pay to go backcountry skiing in this kind of environment”; “backcountry skiing was wild and out there, and very few people were doing it”; who Bluebird thought would show up and who actually did – “we were absolutely flummoxed by what transpired”; the good and bad of Bluebird's location; why none of the obvious abandoned Colorado ski areas worked for Bluebird; “we did everything the right way … and the right way is expensive”; “it felt like it was working”; why financing finally ran out; comparisons to Bohemia; “what we really needed was that second location”; moving on from failure – “it's been really hard to talk about for a long time”; Bluebird's legacy – “we were able to get thousands of people their best winter day”; “I think about it every day in one way or another”; the alternate universe of our own pasts; “somebody's going to make something like this work because it can and should exist”; and why I don't think this story is necessarily over just yet.What I got wrong* We mentioned a forthcoming trip to Colorado – that trip is now in the past, and I included GoPro footage of Lambert skiing with me in Loveland on a soft May day.* I heard “New Hampshire” and assigned Lambert's first backcountry outing to Mount Washington and Tuckerman Ravine, but the trek took place in Gulf of Slides.Podcast NotesOn White GrassThe Existing facility that most resembles Bluebird Backcountry is White Grass, West Virginia, ostensibly a cross-country ski area that sits on a 1,200-foot vertical drop and attracts plenty of skinners. I hosted founder Chip Chase on the pod last year:On Forest Service permit boundariesThe developed portion of a ski area is often smaller than what's designated as the “permit area” on their Forest Service masterplan. Copper Mountain's 2024 masterplan, for example, shows large parcels included in the permit that currently sit outside of lift service:On Bluebird's shifting locationsBluebird's first season was set on Whiteley Peak:The following winter, Bluebird shifted operations to Bear Mountain, which is depicted in the trailmap at the top of this article. Lambert breaks down the reasons for this move in our conversation.On breaking my leg in-boundsYeah I know, the regulars have heard me tell this story more times than a bear s***s under the bridge water, but for anyone new here, one of the reasons I am Skis Inbounds Bro is that I did my best Civil War re-enactment at Black Mountain of Maine three years ago. It's kind of a miracle that not only did patrol not have to stuff a rag in my mouth while they sawed my leg off, but that I've skied 156 days since the accident. This is a testament both to being alive in the future and skiing within 300 yards of a Patrol hut equipped with evac sleds and radios to make sure a fentanyl drip is waiting in the base area recovery room. Here's the story: On abandoned Colorado ski areasBerthoud Pass feels like the lost Colorado ski area most likely to have have endured and found a niche had it lasted into our indie-is-cool, alt-megapass world of 2025. Dropping off US 40 11 miles south of Winter Park, the ski area delivered around 1,000 feet of vert and a pair of modern fixed-grip chairlifts. The bump ran from 1937 to 2001 - Colorado Ski History houses the full story.Geneva Basin suffered from a more remote location than Berthoud, and struggled through several owners from its 1963 opening to failed early ‘90s attempts at revitalization (the ski area last operated in 1984, according to Colorado Ski History). The mountain ran a couple of double chairs and surface lifts on 1,250 vertical feet:I also mentioned Hidden Valley, more commonly known as Ski Estes Park. This was another long-runner, hanging around from 1955 to 1991. Estes rocked an impressive 2,000-foot vertical drop, but spun just one chairlift and a bunch of surface lifts, likely making it impossible to compete as the Colorado megas modernized in the 1980s (Colorado Ski History doesn't go too deeply into the mountain's shutdown).On U.S. Forest Service permitsAn oft-cited stat is that roughly half of U.S. ski areas operate on Forest Service land. This number isn't quite right: 116 of America's 501 active ski areas are under Forest Service permits. While this is fewer than a quarter of active ski areas, those 116 collectively house 63 percentage of American ski terrain.I broke this down extensively a couple months back:The Storm explores the world of lift-served skiing (and sometimes adjacent things such as Bluebird) all year long.
