For much of their outlaw careers, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid weren't the inseparable duo that Hollywood made us believe with its 1969 depiction of the pair. But the movie isn't the only reason the two are inextricably linked: The two members of the Wild West crew known as The Wild Bunch were wanted men when they opted in 1901 to disappear together. The official story is that the pair died in a shoot-out with the Bolivian army, but more than a century later, questions remain.

We were delighted to have CEO of Untamed Angling Brazil and master fly fisherman, Rodrigo Salles, join us on the podcast. If you don't know, Rodrigo runs one of the premier fishing lodge operations on the planet. The Untamed Angling group operates 9 locations throughout Brazil and Bolivia. This includes the famed Rio Marie lodge which credits over 15 world record fish to its name. Its also home to the renowned 5-Star “floating lodge” that takes you to different destinations along the river throughout your stay and has every amenity you could imagine. I was captivated to hear about Rodrigo growing up in a place that we in the States consider so out of reach and exotic. Over time, he and his partners have grown this platform into one of the most special and unique fishing destinations in the world. It's unheard of really, how they've pioneered this business to break new ground. If you listen to or watch the podcast, you'll hear amazing stories about how they worked with native tribes and both the Brazilian and Bolivian governments to secure the rights to fish and charter these extraordinary waters. You'll find out how they defied odds and quite frankly were laughed at when suggesting catching new species like the Arapaima on fly. They worked in harmony with the tribes so their camps and lodges could provide for these native communities in ways never before seen. It doesn't stop with Arapaima though. These destinations have been well known for catching the world's largest species of Peacock Bass, Golden Dorado and have revolutionized catching Payara on fly among many others. If you're looking for an unforgettable adventure and trying to widen your portfolio and species caught, then look no further than Untamed Angling. You won't find an operation that does it better. It's incredible to think about all the widespread types of fishing there are in the world, and yet we can still be such a tight knit community. That's the power of being Connected By Water. Rodrigo is such an amazing person - Kind, genuine, intelligent and a wealth of knowledge when it comes to world-class angling. I think you'll really love this episode.

RA Beattie was the man behind the camera for many of the most influential fly-fishing films of the past several decades. It's no exaggeration to say his work changed the culture of fly fishing. Beattie's work has always told the story behind the story – transcending just a sport about catching fish, and allowing us to connect with the why. From giant Arctic char to dorado in the Bolivian jungle, to steelhead on the Deschutes and milkfish in Dubai, RA has set the standard for fly-fishing films and inspired countless others to expand their work beyond “fish porn.” Watch two of his latest- The Hard Way and The Silent Spotter to see what we're talking about, and then explore more of RA's work through his Off the Grid Studios/RA Beattie Productions. Join us for a conversation with RA about his work, his passions, and a life behind the camera in some of the most exotic flyfishing destinations on earth. And if he ever gets tried of traveling for filmmaking, he travels some more, to places like Suriname and Cameroon, to verify sustainable wood sources for a guitar maker. As RA says, every fly-fishing filmmaker needs a second job at times.    --- The Podcast & Blast with Hal Herring is brought you by Backcountry Hunters & Anglers and presented by Silencer Central, with additional support from Decked, Dometic, and Filson.  Join Backcountry Hunters & Anglers, the voice for your wild public lands, waters, and wildlife to be part of a passionate community of hunter-angler-conservationists.  BHA.

Text and Be HeardWhat role does a mother's love truly play in the path to recovery? Join me as I share an intimate glimpse into my personal journey, shaped by the unwavering support of my late mother, Consuelo Guzman Vrsalovic. As the son of Bolivian immigrants, I navigate the complexities of addiction and recovery, with my mother's lessons on prayer, nutrition, exercise, and the arts serving as my guiding light. Her steadfast love proved to be a powerful force, laying the foundation for my transformation and resilience against gambling and alcohol addiction.Our conversation extends beyond personal anecdotes as we explore the broader impact of family dynamics on addiction recovery. With a focus on emotional security, I discuss how the absence of emotional expression within my family contributed to my struggles and how I learned to transcend these challenges. The enduring influence of my mother's values not only guided me toward a healthier life but also instilled in me the importance of cherishing family bonds. This episode serves as a heartfelt tribute to the enduring significance of parental love and guidance, urging listeners to reflect on the value of family, love, and purpose in their own lives.I Love You and I Will Miss You Mom.Enjoy Heaven!!Support the showRecovery is Beautiful.

Elon Musk's DOGE helps lead an effort to pull out the rug from under Sri Lankan pronoun education, Vietnamese inclusivity programs, Bolivian transgender operas, and more—with the U.S. Agency for International Development caught in the first sweep. An outrage! Or so say leftists. In retaliation for that and more, the liberal media unearths the qualifications of Musk's young staff, who turn out to be…educated, accomplished, and competent. Whoops. The guys sit down to talk wasteful spending and managerial efficiency, along with Christianity's role in government.

In today's episode, we have an inspiring conversation with Guides and Podcasters Jose and Sebastian Camarlinghi. We dive into the world of mountaineering and filmmaking, exploring how their shared passion for the outdoors has shaped their lives and careers.

You can contact me here:  rick@theoutdoorbizpodcast.com Show Notes What Happens When a Mountain Guide and Filmmaker Team Up? What Happened: Do you know those stories your dad tells—the ones you've heard a million times but somehow still pull you in? That's how Voices de Montaña started. Growing up, I (Sebastian) was surrounded by tales of glaciers, daring rescues, and llamas trekking salt across Bolivia's rugged terrain. My dad, José, a mountain guide with decades of experience, always had a story worth telling. But here's the thing: these incredible moments were fading into the ether, known only to close friends and family. One day, after kicking around ideas for documentaries that felt too logistically impossible, we realized there had to be another way to share these mountain memories. That's when we decided: let's start a podcast. Just two guys, a love for storytelling, and a small but passionate team. And guess what? What started as an experiment to preserve these stories turned into a platform that captured the hearts of listeners across Latin America. From climbers to casual outdoor enthusiasts, people weren't just listening—they were connecting with these tales of adventure, resilience, and passion. Principle: Here's the truth: stories aren't just entertainment—they're bridges. They connect people to places, to history, and to one another. In a world overwhelmed by noise, the power of authentic storytelling cuts through. Whether it's the tale of a Bolivian climber turned hero in Pakistan or the rituals of llama caravans, these stories inspire and remind us why nature is worth exploring and protecting. Transition: But here's the thing: most of these stories might have been lost if we hadn't taken that first step. It's not easy carving out space in a niche that barely exists, but it's even harder to stay silent when you know your story matters. If you've ever felt like you're up against the impossible, whether it's launching a creative project, exploring a new path, or simply trying to make your voice heard, you're not alone. That's Why: That's why we started Voices de Montaña. It's not just about mountains or adventures—it's about keeping stories alive and inspiring a community to dream bigger, climb higher, and value the world around them. And in our latest episode, we share the journey of a Bolivian guide who risked it all to bring a legend home. If you're ready to connect with stories that inspire and remind you what's possible, Voices de Montaña is for you. Don't let your dreams—or someone else's story—fade into the background.

For this last Founder Friday of 2024 we are featuring a story that I believe really embodies the spirit of entrepreneurship that fuels so many coffee shops. From a cart in the pandemic, to a thriving cafe and catering business, Thrd Coffee, Lead by Raoul Adwan, has shown what is possible when you build with passion and focus.  Raoul Adwan is a Chicago native of Mexican and Bolivian descent who turned a passion for coffee into a thriving business. Raoul launched his venture during the pandemic with the help of a stimulus check, starting off with a single coffee cart offering street-side brews. What began as a humble pop-up operation quickly gained traction, and within four years, Raoul's business expanded to a brick-and-mortar location (currently in the works for his second shop) , complemented by multiple carts equipped with top-tier coffee gear. Today, Raoul leads one of Chicago's top coffee catering operations, serving corporate spaces and buildings across downtown with full-service coffee bars. His innovative approach and commitment to quality have positioned his business for rapid growth, with projected 2024 sales of over $600K and total gross revenue (starting from 2020 to now) hitting $1.15M. Raoul's journey is a testament to entrepreneurial spirit and community-driven success.   Links: https://www.thrdcoffee.com/ @THRDCOFFEECO   Related episodes:  453 : The Craft of Operations   432 : How to Win in Specialty Retail Coffee   Creative Avoidance : Thoughts on Long-game Management   169 : Designing the Guest Experience w/ Dr. Lisa Waxman   115 : Finding Success in Mobile Coffee w/ Tim Cox / Communion Coffee   422: Coffee Truck Success w/ Vincent LaVolpa of Green Joe Coffee School   384 : How to Run a Successful Coffee Cart w/ Sarah Naylor of Daybreak Coffee Cart   385 : Founder Friday! w/ Arick Davis and Sarah Laman of Last Mile Cafe, Grand Rapids, MI   187 : A Conversation with Nikki Outlaw of Anecho Coffee   Want a beautiful coffee shop?

When Rowan Jacobsen first heard of a chocolate bar made entirely from wild Bolivian cacao, he was skeptical. The waxy mass-market chocolate of his childhood had left him indifferent to it, and most experts believed wild cacao had disappeared from the rainforest centuries ago. But one dazzling bite of Cru Sauvage was all it took. Chasing chocolate down the supply chain and back through history, Jacobsen travels the rainforests of the Amazon and Central America to find the chocolate makers, activists, and indigenous leaders who are bucking the system that long ago abandoned wild and heirloom cacao in favor of high-yield, low-flavor varietals preferred by Big Chocolate.What he found was a cacao renaissance. As his guides pulled the last vestiges of ancient cacao back from the edge of extinction, they'd forged an alternative system in the process-one that is bringing prosperity back to local economies, returning fertility to the land, and protecting it from the rampages of cattle farming. All the while, a new generation of bean-to-bar chocolate makers are racing to get theirhands on these rare varietals and produce extraordinary chocolate displaying a diversity of flavors no one had thought possible. Full of vivid characters, vibrant landscapes, and surprising history, Wild Chocolate promises to be as rich, complex, and addictive as good chocolate itself.Rowan Jacobsen is the author of eight books, including the James Beard Award-winning A Geography of Oysters and 2021's Truffle Hound. He has written for the New York Times, Harper's, Outside, Food & Wine, Forbes, Mother Jones, Scientific American, Smithsonian, Vice, and others, and he appears regularly in Best American Science & Nature Writing and Best Food Writing. He has been an Alicia Patterson Foundation fellow, a McGraw Center fellow, and a Knight Science Journalism Fellow at MIT. The creator and host of the 2022 podcast series "Wild Chocolate," he lives in Vermont.Buy the book from Wellington Square Bookshop - ​https://www.wellingtonsquarebooks.com/book/9781639733576

Is our obsession with optimization actually making us weaker?  In this episode of the Habits and Hustle podcast, I am joined by Michael Easter, author of "The Comfort Crisis" and "Scarcity Brain," to explore how modern society's relentless pursuit of wellness and optimization might be backfiring.  We discuss the possibility that the more requirements we add to basic human functions (like sleeping, exercising, or working), the more fragile we become. We also dive into elaborate morning routines, sleep-tracking devices, how subtraction, not addition, might be the key to building real resilience in our overly-comfortable world, and the best way to end a day of intellectual work.  Michael Easter has made a career as a New York Times bestselling author by traveling the world to uncover practical ideas that help people live healthier, happier, and more remarkable lives. His research spans from war zones to the Arctic to the Bolivian jungle, where he's interviewed thousands of experts including Nobel laureates and world-class athletes. Easter shares these science-backed insights in his books, including Scarcity Brain and The Comfort Crisis, as well as in his newsletter, Two Percent with Michael Easter. His work has been adopted by professional sports teams, Fortune 500 companies, and elite military units to transform their approaches to physical health, mental well-being, and performance.

*) Hamas calls Gaza truce proposals with Israel a 'smokescreen' Palestinian resistance group Hamas has called Gaza ceasefire proposals a “smokescreen" as they do not include an end to the Israeli war or withdrawal from the enclave. Senior Hamas member Izzat al-Rishq said ceasefire proposals floated in recent days don't include an end to the Israeli assault, withdrawal from Gaza, or the return of displaced Palestinians to their areas. He added that Hamas is positively engaged with any proposals and ideas that ensure the cessation of aggression and the withdrawal of the occupation forces from Gaza. *) Israel kills 71 in Lebanon as death toll nears 3,000 Meanwhile, in Lebanon, the Health Ministry has said Israeli air strikes killed at least 71 people and wounded 169 others. The new fatalities brought the number of people killed in Israeli attacks in the country since October 2023 to 2,968, while 13,319 others were wounded. This week Israel intensified its strikes in the eastern Lebanese region of Baalbek and displaced thousands more. *) Israel hinders polio vaccination campaign in northern Gaza The emergency polio vaccination campaign in Gaza entered its second phase though areas in northern Gaza, experiencing ongoing Israeli military offensives and a humanitarian crisis, were excluded from the campaign. The initial phase of the campaign began two months ago, however, offensives in the north delayed the rollout, leading to a partial implementation. In a statement, the Palestinian Health Ministry confirmed that northern Gaza could not proceed with the second phase due to the ongoing hostilities, and plans for the next round of vaccinations in the north remain postponed. *) Supporters of Bolivia's ex-leader Morales detain 200 soldiers Supporters of former Bolivian president Evo Morales have taken at least 200 soldiers, hostage. Three military units in Chapare province were assaulted by irregular groups, The hostage situation marks a dramatic escalation in their standoff with the state after Morales blamed the current President for attempting to assassinate him earlier this week. The hostage situation comes nearly three weeks after backers of Morales the country's first Indigenous leader began blocking roads to prevent his arrest on what he calls trumped-up charges aimed at thwarting his political comeback. *) Hundreds of media members accuse BBC of biased Gaza coverage The BBC has been accused by more than 100 of its staffers of providing Israel favourable coverage in its reporting on the war against Gaza, calling on the broadcaster to "recommit to fairness, accuracy, and impartiality." The letter sent to BBC Director General Tim Davie was signed by more than 230 media industry members, including 101 anonymous BBC staff, journalists from other media organisations, historians, actors, academics and politicians. It criticised the news outlet for failing its editorial standards by lacking "consistently fair and accurate evidence-based journalism in its coverage of Gaza."

Georgia's PM denies vote rigging claims in Saturday's election as the president blames Russian involvement. Also: ex-Bolivian leader Evo Morales says he was shot at, and where there's no sunlight for three months.

This Day in Legal History: Che Guevara ExecutedOn October 9, 1967, Ernesto "Che" Guevara, a prominent figure in revolutionary movements across Latin America, was executed by Bolivian forces after being captured during a failed guerrilla campaign. Guevara was a key leader in the Cuban Revolution and sought to spread Marxist insurgencies throughout Latin America, hoping to ignite similar revolutions. His execution without a trial, carried out with the assistance of the CIA, became a controversial event, raising questions about the legal treatment of non-state actors under international law.Che Guevara's death highlighted the evolving legal frameworks for dealing with insurgencies, guerrilla warfare, and the rights of captured combatants. At the time, international law, including the Geneva Conventions, offered limited protection to guerrilla fighters, whose status as non-traditional combatants fell outside of established norms for prisoners of war. The Bolivian government's decision to execute Guevara without due process sparked widespread condemnation and intensified debates on the legality of such actions.The legacy of Che Guevara's execution extended far beyond his death, as it became a symbol of the broader struggles for political justice, human rights, and the use of state power to suppress insurgencies. His killing underscored the need for clearer international legal standards governing the treatment of insurgents, contributing to later discussions on how to apply humanitarian law to non-state actors and revolutionaries.The U.S. government may seek to force Google to break up parts of its business, such as its Chrome browser and Android operating system, to address what it argues is an illegal monopoly in online search. A judge found in August that Google's dominance—processing 90% of U.S. searches—violates antitrust laws. The Justice Department's proposed remedies aim to end Google's control over search distribution and prevent its dominance from expanding into artificial intelligence (AI). One suggestion is to stop Google from making billion-dollar payments to device manufacturers like Apple to have its search engine pre-installed as the default. Google plans to appeal, calling the proposals radical, and arguing that users choose its search engine for its quality. The company also claims it faces competition from platforms like Amazon. Additionally, a recent court ruling requires Google to allow more competition in its app store. The Justice Department's more detailed proposal will be submitted in November, and Google can respond by December.The antitrust ruling against Google could have significant consequences for smaller companies like Mozilla, which heavily relies on Google's payments to make its Firefox browser financially viable. If Google is forced to stop paying for default search positions, Mozilla could lose a substantial portion of its revenue—more than $500 million annually—putting its future in jeopardy. This would limit Mozilla's ability to compete with larger players like Apple and Microsoft, and could further consolidate market power in the hands of Big Tech.US considers breakup of Google in landmark search case | ReutersWill Google's historic monopoly lawsuit be the death knell for Mozilla and Firefox? | FortuneThe U.S. Supreme Court will hear arguments in the case of Oklahoma death row inmate Richard Glossip, who is seeking to have his conviction overturned for a 1997 murder-for-hire. Glossip, now 61, was convicted of paying Justin Sneed to kill Barry Van Treese, the owner of the motel where Glossip worked. Sneed, who confessed to the murder, testified against Glossip in exchange for avoiding the death penalty. Glossip admits to helping cover up the crime but denies commissioning the murder. Newly uncovered evidence suggests that prosecutors withheld information that could have helped Glossip's defense. Oklahoma's Attorney General, Gentner Drummond, now supports Glossip's appeal, acknowledging flaws in the case, though he still believes Glossip should face some punishment. Due to the attorney general's stance, the Supreme Court appointed an outside lawyer to defend the conviction. The justices are expected to rule by June 2025.US Supreme Court to weigh appeal by Oklahoma death row inmate Glossip | ReutersThe U.S. Supreme Court is signaling support for President Biden's regulation of "ghost guns," or build-at-home firearm kits, by likely allowing the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) to regulate these kits as firearms. The rule, introduced in 2022, would require serial numbers, background checks, and record-keeping for gun kits, treating them like fully assembled guns. Challengers, including gun-rights advocates, argue that the rule expands beyond the authority granted by the 1968 Gun Control Act. However, several justices, including Chief Justice Roberts and Justice Barrett, expressed skepticism about the challengers' claims, noting how easily kits can be turned into functioning firearms. The case echoes past legal battles over firearms regulation, such as the one involving bump stocks, and centers on the scope of the ATF's power.Supreme Court Signals Backing for Biden's ‘Ghost Gun' Rule (1) This is a public episode.

Read our book, The Score That Matters https://amzn.to/3XxHi7p Full show notes at www.LearningLeader.com Michael Easter's investigations have taken him to meet with monks in ancient monasteries in Bhutan, lost tribes in the jungles of Bolivia, US Special Forces soldiers in undisclosed locations, gene scientists in Iceland, CEOs in Fortune-500 boardrooms, and more. He's a professor at UNLV and he's the best-selling author of The Comfort Crisis and Scarcity Brain. “The modern world is designed for short-term survival and pleasure. It is not set up to help us thrive in the long term.” “Have fun, don't die, read books, and do strange things.” Be a 2 percenter. 98% of people do the easy thing. We are programmed to do the easy thing. The world was uncomfortable a while ago... It makes sense to do the easy thing. You get the short-term reward for it. Handle adversity, adapt, do the slightly harder thing Some ideas: do walking meetings, work in silence, embrace hunger, don't cut corners, pick up the trash, call people on the phone. Ruck the airport. Don't sit down, walk. Read while exercising. Workout outside. Sprint. Lift weights. The ability to move a limb quickly is what helps old people not fall. Need to be powerful and springy to move quickly (and not fall). Diet - One ingredient foods. Tribe in Bolivia with the healthiest hearts in the world. Be outside, eat one ingredient foods. Scarcity brain - We all suck at moderation. We overconsume... Casinos, slot machines. Quick, repeatable, predictable. The speed makes it powerful. Silicon Valley learned this from casinos and it's how they build their apps. The smartphone withdrawal effect. Worse in short term. Better in the long term. Break bad habits - Slow down. Respond, don't react. Wait 72 hours to buy the thing in your online cart. Junk food is super easy to eat fast. It was designed that way. Your body doesn't know it's full because of the speed. What did Michael learn from a tribe in a Bolivian jungle? They seemed very happy. What did they do? They ate single-ingredient food. They spent a lot of time outside. And they spent a lot of time together. What can we learn from that? Eat healthy, go outside, and spend time with people you love. “A lot of problems are not our fault, but they are our problems to solve.” Remember, we are wired to choose the escalator, fast food or to cut the corner. We need to be intentional in taking the stairs, slowing down, and responding instead of reacting. How the scarcity loop works: It has three parts: opportunity, unpredictable rewards, and quick repeatability. Becoming aware of it can help you fall into it less often. Michael has been sober for 9 years. His drinking addiction stemmed from having a boring life (job he didn't like). Needed to explore the edges. Booze did that for him. Iraq - Sandstorm. We don't read books here. We don't have that luxury. We have too many problems to deal with. In America, we live in a country where we can read books.

Happy Monday! Sam and Emma speak with Melissa Jacoby, law professor at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, to discuss her recent book Unjust Debts: How Our Bankruptcy System Makes America More Unequal. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on SCOTUS' affirmation of presidential immunity, Joe Biden's Presidency, Boeing's plea deal, Bannon's prison time, Oklahoma and Texas Supreme Court decisions, the failure of the US aid pier in Gaza, Israel's attempted annexation of the West Bank, the French snap elections, and the Bolivian coup attempt, before diving deep into the Supreme Court's recent decision to officially place the President of the United States above the rule of law, and unpacking what exact acts might fall in the purview of this decision. Professor Melissa Jacoby then joins, briefly giving her own reactions to recent SCOTUS developments, before diving into the concept of bankruptcy in a society that runs on debts as a much-needed safety valve for the individual (or family), a need directly contrasted by the staunch moral stigma around the “personal-failing” of bankruptcy when it comes to people – a stigma that is not applied when it comes to corporations. Stepping back, Professor Jacoby walks through the major role the 2005 bankruptcy act (BAPCPA) played in making the bankruptcy system even more inaccessible for the individual, walking through various stories told in “Unjust Debts” that exemplify the problematic and unreliable role bankruptcy plays in practice, and why the contrasts between Chapter 7 and 13 bankruptcy (and who is filed into which) exacerbate these issues. After expanding on the particular role race plays in the bankruptcy system, Sam, Emma, and Melissa briefly touch on how corporations can take advantage of bankruptcy law – particularly when it comes to avoiding paying fair damages – and wrap up with hopes for the future of bankruptcy law and policy. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma unpack the developing conversation around Biden's future as the Democratic candidate for president, with Rep. Jamie Raskin and Mika Brzezinski exemplifying the Democratic establishment's worried (and worrying) response, and parse through the politics that got us to this point. They also touch on Donald Trump's continued use of “Palestinian” as a derogatory term for Democrats, Biden's leadership problems, and Bannon's prison Tim, before wrapping up with some (satirical) ponderings about how SCOTUS' presidential immunity decision could play out in practice, and the Trump Campaign's new tact for the Black vote (it's a doozy!), plus, your IMs!

The president of Bolivia, Luis Arce, seems to have defeated a military coup attempt in the city. He later made a social media address from inside the presidential palace, a short time after a tank knocked down a main gate, allowing troops to enter the complex. Also: Sunak and Starmer clash in final UK election debate, and music festival blamed for gazelle deaths in Spain.

It's an EmMajority Report Thursday! She speaks with freelance writer and author Arthur Goldwag to discuss his recent book The Politics of Fear: The Peculiar Persistence of American Paranoia. Then, she's joined by Manpreet Kaur Kalra, development economics & legal scholar with an emphasis on business and human rights, to discuss her recent piece in In These Times entitled "The Landmark Ruling Against Chiquita Exposes the Failure of Voluntary “Corporate Social Responsibility”, co-authored with Anna Canning. First, Emma responds to the military coup attempt in Bolivia that was beaten back by President Arce, organized labor, and the Bolivian people in the nation's capital, La Paz. Afterwards, Emma speaks with Arthur, and they trace the history of paranoia in American politics, and how that history intersects with the rise in anti-Semitism, conspiracy theories, and hatred on the right today. Arthur traces back the racial, ethnic, and religious animus on the right even further back then contemporary American racism and anti-Semitism, discussing the history of anti-Masonic tropes in American history, which also dovetailed with another great American prejudice: hatred towards Catholics and Catholicism, which dissipated mostly only after the election of John F. Kennedy in 1960. Arthur reckons with a question from an MR IM'er as to whether there is a capacity for this conspiratorial, hate-filled energy to be translated and minimized, potentially into a outlet that isn't characterized by those things, into something more pro-social. He's not convinced. Then, Emma is joined by Manpreet to discuss her reporting on the ruling against Chiquita, the banana company that funded paramilitary groups in Colombia. Manpreet discusses the particulars of the lawsuit, the history of paramilitary groups in Colombia during its pitched, extended Civil War, how companies would gain footholds with those groups, and what this ruling means for corporate governance and its social responsibility. And in the Fun Half, Emma and the MR Crew are joined by Matt Binder and Brandon Sutton, as they discuss yet another day's worth of expectation setting by Congressional Republicans ahead of tonight's Biden-Trump debate. This time, Tennessee Rep. Andy Ogles touts his "No Juicing Joe" legislation in the sake of transparency (i.e. forcing President Biden to admit whether he's taken mind altering stimulants while in office). They then discuss Sen. John Fetterman's pow wow in Israel with Netanyahu, a bipartisan vote to amend an appropriations bill to bar departments from citing the Gaza Health Ministry and Rep. Rashida Tlaib's excoriating speech on the House floor in response, and a crazy story out of West Virginia about a couple now in court for allegedly engaging in human trafficking and what could amount to modern slavery inflicted upon adopted black children.

Alcohol offered Michael Easter a cheap thrill. But when he got sober, he needed to fill the void with other stimulating experiences. So, he turned to travel, surrounding himself with brilliant thinkers and people living at the extremes. From hunting in the Arctic to living in the Bolivian jungle, his experiences have helped him uncover practical ideas for optimizing life.
