Perhaps it has been good. Perhaps it has been difficult. Maybe somebody said something that hurt, a plan went wrong, or the pressure of the day brought out emotions we wish we had handled differently. Lord, meet people in South Korea, Spain, Zimbabwe, Austria, Botswana and the United States. Bring peace to homes where tension has followed people through the door. Bring patience where frustration has taken hold, and kindness where words have become sharp. Jesus, we want Your character to shape us. We do not simply want peace when everything is peaceful; we want the peace of Christ when circumstances are difficult. Holy Spirit, grow Your fruit within us. Where anger needs surrender, give us humility. Where disappointment has become resentment, bring grace. Where we reacted too quickly, help us make things right. Teach us that self-control is not weakness; it is strength submitted to God. Father, let love have more authority in our hearts than irritation. Let kindness become stronger than frustration. Let patience give us room to breathe before we speak. God of Israel, bring Your peace into our homes tonight. Help families listen to one another. Help friends forgive one another. Help us recognise the person behind the behaviour and respond with compassion. Jesus, we place this day into Your hands. We cannot change every conversation that has already happened, but we can surrender our hearts now. Let the Holy Spirit continue His work within us. As this evening settles, let Your peace become deeper, Your love become clearer, and Your character become more visible in us. In Jesus' name, Amen. Gentle pause before the 8:00 p.m. prayer. Blessing May the Holy Spirit fill your home with peace tonight, soften difficult conversations, and grow the character of Christ within you.

We have worked, travelled, cared, decided, spoken and perhaps struggled. Now we come before You with everything the day has revealed. Your Word tells us to trust You with all our hearts and not lean entirely on our own understanding. Lord, meet people in South Korea, Spain, Zimbabwe, Austria, Botswana and the United States. Meet those facing difficult decisions, uncertain futures, family concerns or questions about what comes next. Where someone feels lost, bring direction. Where fear is making the decisions, bring peace. Where the road seems unclear, give grace for the next faithful step. Jesus, You understand the weight of human life. You know what it is to walk through uncertainty, yet You remained surrendered to the Father. Teach us that trusting God does not mean having every answer. It means knowing whose hands hold our lives. Holy Spirit, quiet the pressure to work everything out tonight. Give wisdom for what belongs to today and patience for what must wait. Help us listen before reacting, pray before deciding, and seek God's ways before our own preferences. Father, we place our families, work, relationships and tomorrow before You. We surrender the outcomes we cannot control. Where we have made mistakes today, give us humility to learn. Where we have made good decisions, keep us grateful rather than proud. Let Your peace guide our thoughts. As evening settles, turn our hearts back toward Jesus. We trust You with what we understand and what we do not. Lead us gently, guard us faithfully, and give us confidence for the road ahead. In Jesus' name, Amen. Gentle pause before the 8:00 p.m. prayer. Blessing May God guide your thoughts this evening, strengthen your trust, and give you peace about the things you cannot yet see clearly.

All but two of the University of Iowa's Center for Intellectual Freedom advisory council members resigned this week. On this episode, we find out why from 'Gazette' reporter Vanessa Miller. Then, we talk with Robin Opsahl of the Iowa Capitol Dispatch about President Trump's lawsuit over the Iowa Poll. A court orders the state to reopen its historical research center in Iowa City. We hear from IPR's Maura Curran about this decision. We also talk with Mark Licht of Iowa State University about what a soggy September means for harvest. Then, we meet Wame Molefhe, a writer in residence from Botswana. And IPR's Tony Dehner grooves us into the weekend.

John Neelo is one of the heros in the conservation of African Wild dogs. He lives and works in the field in Botswana and I had the great pleasure to sit down and have this conversation about how John became a senior researcher on dog project, how the latest technology is helping to minimise human-wildlife conflict between the dogs (Africa's most efficient hunter) and villagers and their livestock, and how tourism can be a positive in the Wild Dogs' ensured survival. We are in the Okavango Delta of Botswana, one of the best places in Africa to see Wild Dogs, and the story is a good one.

The world may still be noisy, but here we can become quiet. Some of us are grateful for today; others are relieved that it is nearly over. Some are carrying sorrow, loneliness or questions that have followed them into the night. And over all of us stands the beautiful truth: “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son.” Lord, let Your love become the deepest thing we remember tonight. Hold families in Belgium, South Korea, the United States, Botswana, the Netherlands and Israel. Draw near to those who feel forgotten, to those grieving quietly, and to those who have wondered whether they are still seen by You. Jesus, Your love is not an idea floating above our lives. You came into this world, gave Yourself for us, and opened the way to forgiveness and salvation. So tonight we bring You our regrets, our unfinished thoughts, our failures and our fears. We do not hide them. We place them beneath Your mercy. Holy Spirit, quiet the places in us that are still fighting the day. Help us forgive where forgiveness is needed, release what cannot be changed, and receive the peace that comes from knowing we are held by God. Let the lonely know they are not abandoned. Let the weary breathe deeply. Let faith rise gently as we remember Jesus. Father, we surrender this night to You. Watch over our homes, our loved ones and every person listening. Let sleep come without striving, and let tomorrow wait until tomorrow. We rest in the love of God, the grace of Jesus and the presence of the Holy Spirit. Amen. Blessing May the love of God surround you tonight, may the grace of Jesus bring you peace, and may the presence of the Holy Spirit rest gently upon you as you sleep.

Some things have gone well and others have not. There may be prayers that seem answered and others that are still waiting. Yet Your Word reminds us that Your purposes for Your people are not empty words: “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” Lord, hold those who are wondering what comes next. Bring hope to Ireland, South Korea, Botswana, the Netherlands, Israel and Zimbabwe. Meet people who are rebuilding after disappointment, waiting for an opportunity, caring for someone they love, or quietly asking whether their future still has meaning. Let hope become more than an idea; let it be anchored in Your character. Jesus, You are our hope, not because life always unfolds as we would choose, but because You remain faithful when circumstances change. Teach us to trust Your hands when we cannot see the whole road. Give purpose to ordinary acts of kindness, courage to unfinished assignments, and grace for conversations that still need healing. Holy Spirit, breathe fresh confidence into tired hearts. Help us look back without condemnation and look forward without fear. Where we have made mistakes, lead us toward repentance and restoration. Where we have done what we can, teach us to leave the outcome with You. Father, we place tomorrow before You tonight. We do not need to carry tomorrow's weight while living today's evening. Let the hope You give us settle deeply within us, and let Your purposes shape our next steps. We trust You with our future because we belong to Jesus. Amen. Gentle pause before continuing. Blessing May the hope of Christ meet you this evening, may God give purpose to your next steps, and may you rest knowing that your future is safely held in His hands.

Send us your feedback — we're listeningPhilippians 4:6 — Do Not Be Anxious About Anything: A Mid-Morning Prayer for Peace and Prayer Themes: Peace · Prayer · Trust Scripture — Philippians 4:6 (NIV) “Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.” By mid-morning, the pace of the day can already be demanding. The phone may be busy, the workplace may be loud, and responsibilities may be gathering faster than expected. For someone listening, anxiety may have arrived quietly and settled into the heart. Spoken Prayer Lord Jesus, by mid-morning the pace of the day can already be demanding. The phone may be busy, the workplace may be loud, and responsibilities may be gathering faster than we expected. For someone listening, anxiety may have arrived quietly and settled into the heart. Your Word tells us not to be anxious about anything, but to bring everything to God in prayer. Philippians 4:6 does not pretend that pressure is imaginary. It teaches us where to take it. So we pray for the person in Russia facing uncertainty, the family in Ireland carrying concern, the student in South Korea under pressure, the worker in Botswana trying to keep everything together, the household in the Netherlands waiting for an answer, and the person in Israel who needs peace in the middle of a difficult day. Jesus, we bring You the things we cannot control. We bring the conversation we are worried about, the decision we have been postponing, the financial pressure, the concern for someone we love, and the thoughts that keep running ahead of us. Holy Spirit, slow the rush within us. Teach us to breathe, to pray, and to trust. Let gratitude begin to interrupt anxiety, not because every problem has disappeared, but because Jesus is present in the middle of it. Lord, give us wisdom for the next conversation and grace for the next task. Guard our words when we are frustrated. Keep our hearts tender when pressure makes us defensive. We do not need to carry the whole day at once. We bring this moment to You. Let Your peace settle into the places where anxiety has been speaking the loudest, and help us continue with Jesus, one faithful step at a time. Amen. Blessing May the peace of Jesus meet you in the middle of this day. May anxiety give way to prayer, and may your heart discover fresh confidence in God's presence.

Send us your feedback — we're listening Hebrews 4:15–16 — Approach the Throne of Grace: A Night Prayer for Peace and Rest Themes: Jesus Understands · Grace · Rest Scripture — Hebrews 4:16 (NIV)  “Let us then approach God's throne of grace with confidence.” Night has a way of making the heart speak more quietly. When the noise of the day disappears, worries can seem louder. Some people are tired in their bodies; others are tired deep within. Tonight, we do not need to solve everything. We can come to Jesus. Spoken Prayer Jesus, night has a way of making the heart speak more quietly. When the noise of the day disappears, worries can seem louder. Some people listening are tired in their bodies; others are tired deep within. Tonight, we do not need to solve everything. We can come to You. Your Word says that we have a great High Priest who understands our weaknesses, and Hebrews 4:16 invites us to approach God's throne of grace with confidence. We do not come because we have earned our way in. We come because Jesus has opened the way. So tonight we pray for the person in Ireland who has carried too much, the family in South Korea waiting for peace, the person in Botswana facing uncertainty, the household in the Netherlands longing for reassurance, the person in Israel carrying concern, and the listener in Zimbabwe who simply needs somewhere safe to breathe. Lord Jesus, we bring You our tiredness without shame. We bring the thoughts that keep circling, the fears about tomorrow, and the disappointments of today. Holy Spirit, breathe Your quiet presence into every room and every heart. Teach us to receive rest as a gift, not something we have to earn. Let our breathing slow. Let our shoulders relax. Let the mind release what it cannot settle tonight. Jesus, You understand us completely, and You remain near. We place tomorrow in Your hands. We do not need to watch over everything through the night. Your grace is enough for this moment. So we rest beneath Your care, trusting that when morning comes, Your mercy will meet us there. Amen. Blessing May the peace of Christ settle over you tonight. May His grace quiet your heart, His presence remain near, and His love give you permission to rest.

« Rétablir la confiance et gérer la transformation » : c'est le thème officiel de la 81e session de l'Assemblée générale des Nations unies qui s'est ouverte hier mardi à New York. « Et l'Afrique dans tout ça ? », s'interroge L'Observateur Paalga au Burkina Faso. « L'ONU joue un rôle central mais complexe en Afrique, où se concentrent une grande partie de ses opérations de paix, de ses défis humanitaires et de ses programmes de développement. Certes, des pays comme le Lesotho, le Botswana et autres, sont censés avoir la même voix que les États-Unis ou encore la France… Mais en réalité, pointe le quotidien burkinabé, la tribune des Nations unies, bien que prestigieuse, permet à nos chefs d'État de s'écouter parler, souvent dans des salles vides. Ce ne sont pourtant pas les difficultés, les problèmes endémiques qui manquent sur le continent. Une guerre succédant à une autre, et aujourd'hui du Sahel à l'est du Congo, en passant par le Soudan, le Soudan du Sud… de nombreux pays sont désorganisés, en raison de conflits qui perdurent, sans que la fameuse Communauté dite internationale ne puisse y faire grand-chose ». Faut pas rêver… Le quotidien Aujourd'hui, toujours à Ouaga, renchérit : « Les questions de sécurité et de guerre en RDC, au Soudan, ou encore au Sahel, le problème de la dette et de la justice financière internationale seront aussi dans les discours de nos princes. Pour quels résultats ? Faut pas rêver ! », s'exclame le quotidien ouagalais. « Si l'Afrique est courtisée et est devenue le lieu d'une intense guerre géopolitique, c'est que les puissants de ce monde savent que c'est le continent de l'avenir pour sa jeunesse face à des pays anémiés démographiquement, mais aussi pour ses richesses en sous-sol. Ce sera donc le lieu de tenir des postures de fermeté, estime Aujourd'hui, face aux grands de ce monde dont les règles de coopération suivent le curseur de leurs intérêts : "dis-moi quelles richesses sont enfouies dans ton sous-sol et je te dirai quel genre de partenariat nous ferons". Les discours des Africains devront être de cette tonalité : "Respectez-nous et traitons d'égal à égal" ». Le beau discours de Guterres… C'était le sens d'ailleurs de l'intervention du secrétaire général de l'ONU lors du récent forum Unstoppable Africa 2026 à New York : « Antonio Guterres en effet a appelé à un changement de modèle dans les relations économiques avec l'Afrique, relève Afrik.com. (…) "Nous devons passer de faire des affaires en Afrique à faire des affaires avec l'Afrique", a-t-il déclaré devant des responsables politiques, investisseurs et dirigeants d'entreprises. Le secrétaire général de l'ONU a plaidé pour davantage de transformation locale des ressources, d'investissements et de partenariats. Objectif : permettre au continent de conserver une plus grande part de la valeur créée. Antonio Guterres a ainsi souligné l'importance croissante de l'Afrique dans l'économie mondiale, relève encore Afrik.com. Il a notamment cité un marché évalué à environ 3 000 milliards de dollars, ainsi que la présence de l'Afrique sur près de 30 % des ressources minérales mondiales et environ 60 % du potentiel solaire de la planète. Le secrétaire général de l'ONU a également mis en avant la progression de la population active africaine, qui constitue l'un des principaux moteurs démographiques de la prochaine période ».

Small Cap Breaking News You Can't Miss!Here's a quick rundown of the latest updates from standout small-cap companies making big moves today:BacTech Environmental Corp. (CSE: BAC) (OTCQB: BCCEF)BacTech, a leader in commercial bioleaching for the circular economy, announced it will attend the Centurion One Capital 4th Annual Bahamas Summit. The event places the company in front of institutional investors as it advances its bacteria-based approach to recovering valuable metals while stabilizing hazardous elements. The summit is a visibility catalyst for a company positioning itself in metals recovery and environmental remediation.SAGA Metals Corp. (TSXV: SAGA) (OTCQX: SAGMF) (FSE: 20H)SAGA reported a standout result at its Radar Titanium-Vanadium-Iron project in Labrador, cutting 485.4 metres at 32.21% Fe2O3, 5.30% TiO2 and 0.191% V2O5, including a higher-grade 56.8 metres at 49.56% Fe2O3, 8.17% TiO2 and 0.339% V2O5. The intercepts come from its maiden Mineral Resource Estimate program at the Trapper Zone. The scale and grade underscore the project's potential as a North American source of titanium and vanadium.Phenom Resources Corp. (TSXV: PHNM) (OTCQX: PHNMF) (FSE: 1PY0)An affiliate of major miner SSR Mining exercised its right to acquire a 15% interest in Phenom's Dobbin Project for US$4 million, forming a joint venture through a newly incorporated Nevada LLC with subsidiary Copper One. The deal validates the project's copper potential and brings in a well-capitalized partner. Backing from an established producer is a meaningful de-risking event for a junior explorer.NexGold Mining Corp. (TSXV: NEXG) (OTCQX: NXGCF)NexGold released further diamond drilling results from its Goliath Gold Complex in Ontario, intersecting 14.07 g/t gold over 7.0 metres, 9.76 g/t over 8.0 metres and 2.84 g/t over 13.0 metres at the Goldlund deposit. The high-grade hits come as roughly 31,971 metres of an expanded 35,000-metre program are complete. Continued high-grade continuity supports the resource-growth story ahead of further development work.Avanti Gold Corp. (CSE: AGC) (FSE: X370) (OTCQB: AVTGF)Avanti closed a bought deal private placement of 103,500,000 units at $0.50 for gross proceeds of C$51,750,000, including full exercise of the over-allotment option. The financing, led by SCP Resource Finance with BMO and Haywood, positions the company to fund a large planned drill campaign. A fully funded, large-scale program gives investors a clear catalyst pipeline.NexMetals Mining Corp. (TSXV: NEXM) (NASDAQ: NEXM)NexMetals reported 7.55 metres grading 6.48% copper-equivalent (2.70% Cu and 1.83% Ni) from drill hole SMD-26-219 at its Selebi Main deposit in Botswana, plus a new visual intercept in SMD-26-217. The results extend the high-grade trend to approximately 1.5 kilometres. Growing high-grade copper-nickel mineralization strengthens the case for redevelopment of the historic Selebi asset.Legacy Gold Mines Ltd. (TSXV: LEGY)Legacy Gold hit 3.7 g/t gold over 41 feet (12.5 m) near surface, including 15.1 g/t over 6.7 feet, plus four additional mineralized zones at its Baner project in Idaho County, Idaho. The near-surface grades point to potential open-pit ounces, and multiple mineralized zones in a single hole expand the exploration upside at Baner.Quantum eMotion Corp. (NYSE American: QNC) (TSXV: QNC) (FSE: 34Q0)Quantum eMotion's recently acquired subsidiary SKV Technology received a Notice of Allowance from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office for its SecureKey technology. The allowance strengthens the company's intellectual-property position in quantum-secure cybersecurity and can support future commercialization and licensing opportunities.Bottom Line: Today's small-cap moves were led by high-grade drill results in gold, copper and critical minerals, major financings, and validating partnerships and clinical and IP milestones across mining, biotech and technology.

Send us your feedback — we're listening— Proverbs 3:5–6 — Trust in the Lord With All Your Heart: A Midday Prayer for GuidanceThemes: Trust • Guidance • Surrender Proverbs 3:5–6 — NIV “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.” Emotional Hook By the middle of the day, we can find ourselves standing at crossroads we never expected. A decision needs to be made. A relationship needs wisdom. Money is tight. Work is uncertain. A family member needs help. And sometimes the hardest part is simply admitting, “I don't know what to do.” Spoken Prayer Father, we come to You in the middle of the day with the decisions we understand and the ones we do not. Across Russia, Ireland, South Korea, Botswana, the Netherlands and Israel, and among every person listening, teach our hearts the quiet strength of trust. Jesus, You know how easily we try to carry the future in our minds before it has even arrived. We analyse every possibility, replay every conversation and search for certainty before we take the next step. Yet You invite us to trust You. So today we surrender the need to understand everything. Give wisdom to the person facing an important decision. Give patience to the person waiting for an answer. Give discernment to those making choices for their families, their work and their future. Where anxiety is disguising itself as constant planning, bring rest. Where fear is pushing someone towards a decision they know is unwise, bring clarity. Where disappointment has made trust difficult, meet them gently. Holy Spirit, guide us without confusion. Close doors that should remain closed and give us courage when the right door opens. Help us recognise the difference between impatience and faith, between fear and wisdom, between simply wanting our own way and genuinely seeking the heart of God. Jesus, we do not need to see the whole road today. We need grace for the next step. So we place our plans in Your hands. We trust You with what we know, what we don't know and what we cannot control. Lead us, Lord. We are listening. Amen. Blessing May God give you wisdom for every decision before you today. May Jesus guide your steps, settle your uncertainty and give you confidence to trust Him even when you cannot yet see the whole way forward.

« Rétablir la confiance et gérer la transformation » : c'est le thème officiel de la 81e session de l'Assemblée générale des Nations unies qui s'est ouverte hier mardi à New York. « Et l'Afrique dans tout ça ? », s'interroge L'Observateur Paalga au Burkina Faso. « L'ONU joue un rôle central mais complexe en Afrique, où se concentrent une grande partie de ses opérations de paix, de ses défis humanitaires et de ses programmes de développement. Certes, des pays comme le Lesotho, le Botswana et autres, sont censés avoir la même voix que les États-Unis ou encore la France… Mais en réalité, pointe le quotidien burkinabé, la tribune des Nations unies, bien que prestigieuse, permet à nos chefs d'État de s'écouter parler, souvent dans des salles vides. Ce ne sont pourtant pas les difficultés, les problèmes endémiques qui manquent sur le continent. Une guerre succédant à une autre, et aujourd'hui du Sahel à l'est du Congo, en passant par le Soudan, le Soudan du Sud… de nombreux pays sont désorganisés, en raison de conflits qui perdurent, sans que la fameuse Communauté dite internationale ne puisse y faire grand-chose ». Faut pas rêver… Le quotidien Aujourd'hui, toujours à Ouaga, renchérit : « Les questions de sécurité et de guerre en RDC, au Soudan, ou encore au Sahel, le problème de la dette et de la justice financière internationale seront aussi dans les discours de nos princes. Pour quels résultats ? Faut pas rêver ! », s'exclame le quotidien ouagalais. « Si l'Afrique est courtisée et est devenue le lieu d'une intense guerre géopolitique, c'est que les puissants de ce monde savent que c'est le continent de l'avenir pour sa jeunesse face à des pays anémiés démographiquement, mais aussi pour ses richesses en sous-sol. Ce sera donc le lieu de tenir des postures de fermeté, estime Aujourd'hui, face aux grands de ce monde dont les règles de coopération suivent le curseur de leurs intérêts : "dis-moi quelles richesses sont enfouies dans ton sous-sol et je te dirai quel genre de partenariat nous ferons". Les discours des Africains devront être de cette tonalité : "Respectez-nous et traitons d'égal à égal" ». Le beau discours de Guterres… C'était le sens d'ailleurs de l'intervention du secrétaire général de l'ONU lors du récent forum Unstoppable Africa 2026 à New York : « Antonio Guterres en effet a appelé à un changement de modèle dans les relations économiques avec l'Afrique, relève Afrik.com. (…) "Nous devons passer de faire des affaires en Afrique à faire des affaires avec l'Afrique", a-t-il déclaré devant des responsables politiques, investisseurs et dirigeants d'entreprises. Le secrétaire général de l'ONU a plaidé pour davantage de transformation locale des ressources, d'investissements et de partenariats. Objectif : permettre au continent de conserver une plus grande part de la valeur créée. Antonio Guterres a ainsi souligné l'importance croissante de l'Afrique dans l'économie mondiale, relève encore Afrik.com. Il a notamment cité un marché évalué à environ 3 000 milliards de dollars, ainsi que la présence de l'Afrique sur près de 30 % des ressources minérales mondiales et environ 60 % du potentiel solaire de la planète. Le secrétaire général de l'ONU a également mis en avant la progression de la population active africaine, qui constitue l'un des principaux moteurs démographiques de la prochaine période ». Mieux se faire entendre… Voilà pour les paroles, reste à passer aux actes… C'était le sens, remarque le site Africa News, du discours du président kenyan William Ruto, qui a appelé, en marge du sommet onusien, à « repenser les partenariats internationaux avec l'Afrique et à mieux mobiliser les ressources dont dispose le continent : "la question, a-t-il dit, n'est plus seulement de savoir combien d'argent nos partenaires peuvent apporter à l'Afrique. La vraie question, c'est : comment pouvons-nous mobiliser les ressources que l'Afrique possède déjà ? Cela suppose de repenser notre conception du partenariat international" ». Déjà, un premier pas serait que l'Afrique puisse mieux se faire entendre… En effet, rappelle le site marocain Atalayar : « Paradoxe du multilatéralisme contemporain : l'Afrique concentre plus de 60 % des débats et des mandats opérationnels du Conseil de sécurité de l'ONU, mais ne dispose d'aucun siège permanent au sein de son instance décisionnelle ». Et depuis des années, l'Union africaine réclame « au moins deux sièges permanents dotés de toutes les prérogatives — y compris le droit de veto — ainsi que de cinq sièges non permanents ». Et pour l'instant, rien n'a bougé.

Send us your feedback — we're listening2 Timothy 1:7 — God Has Not Given Us a Spirit of Fear: An Evening Prayer for Strength and HopeThemes: Strength • Courage • Hope 2 Timothy 1:7 — NIV “For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline.” Emotional Opening Evening has a way of bringing everything back to the surface. Once the day's activity slows, the thoughts we pushed aside can become louder. Perhaps something happened today that frightened you. Perhaps you received difficult news. Perhaps you are carrying concern for someone you love, or simply feel worn down by everything happening in the world. Spoken Prayer Father, as evening comes, we bring You the fears we have carried through this day. Across Russia, Ireland, South Korea, Botswana, the Netherlands and Israel, and wherever this prayer is being heard, draw close to people who need strength tonight. For those who have lived through danger, give courage. For those facing uncertainty, give wisdom. For those grieving, give comfort. For those caring for others while quietly struggling themselves, give fresh strength. And for those whose minds have been trapped in fearful possibilities, let the Holy Spirit bring a deeper steadiness. Jesus, fear does not have to become the voice that defines our future. We can acknowledge what is difficult without surrendering our hearts to despair. We can be honest about what hurts while still believing that You are present. Holy Spirit, fill us with power that serves rather than dominates, love that reaches beyond fear, and a sound mind that can take one faithful step at a time. Where anger has taken root, soften the heart. Where hopelessness has settled in, breathe life again. Lord, we entrust tonight to You. We cannot repair every situation before we sleep. We cannot carry every person we love in our own strength. So we release what belongs in Your hands. Let hope remain when the answers have not yet arrived. Let courage rise quietly within us. And let Your presence carry us into the night. Amen. Blessing May the Holy Spirit strengthen you tonight with courage, love and a sound mind. May fear lose its grip, may hope remain alive, and may the presence of Jesus give you rest.

The energy may be fading, the workload may be growing and the thing you thought you could manage may now feel difficult. This is a moment to stop and remember where your strength truly comes from. Spoken Prayer Father, at this midday hour I pray for those listening in Ireland, South Korea, Botswana, the Netherlands, Israel and Zimbabwe. You know what has already taken place today. You know where people are tired, where patience has been tested and where someone is quietly wondering how they will keep going. Lord, meet them in that place. We do not come pretending that we are strong enough for everything. Jesus, You know our limits, our weaknesses and the pressures we carry. Teach us that depending upon You is not failure. It is faith. Where someone feels overwhelmed, give them grace for the next task. Where someone is discouraged, remind them that this difficult moment is not the whole story. Where someone feels alone in their responsibilities, let them become aware of Your presence. Holy Spirit, breathe strength into weary hearts. Give us perseverance without hardness, courage without pride and patience without losing hope. We release the need to prove that we can carry everything ourselves. Instead, we turn our attention towards Christ, who gives strength for what is before us. So take a slow breath now. Receive God's grace for this moment. You do not have to carry the whole day at once. Jesus, strengthen us to take the next step faithfully, trusting that Your grace will meet us there. Amen. Blessing: May Christ strengthen you in this moment, renew your courage and give you perseverance for the rest of your day.

Season 9, Episode 5: Sean Hehir has spent nearly three decades turning Trinity Investments into a specialist hospitality investor, and he joins the show to explain why his firm only buys resorts it considers truly irreplaceable. Hehir grew up in Botswana, trained at hotel school in Switzerland and Cornell, and joined Trinity in 1998 before taking over as CEO in 2009 and steering the firm to focus solely on hospitality real estate. He now oversees a portfolio built with Hilton, Marriott, and Hyatt, and with mega private equity funds that lean on Trinity's hospitality expertise. The tension worth tuning in for: Trinity has walked away from cap-rate arbitrage and ultra-luxury boutiques alike, betting instead that scale, counterparty discipline, and genuinely irreplaceable real estate are what hold up when the market throws a curveball — which, as Hehir tells it, happens on nearly every deal.

Decisions need to be made, people need answers and there may already be situations where you simply do not know which way to turn. When the road ahead is unclear, God does not ask you to have every answer. He asks you to trust Him. Spoken Prayer Father, I pray for those listening in Ireland, South Korea, Botswana, the Netherlands, Israel and Zimbabwe. You know the decisions sitting before them today. You know the questions they are carrying and the choices they may be struggling to make. Sometimes we want to see the whole road before we take the next step. We want certainty before obedience and answers before we move. But Your Word reminds us that we can trust You even when our understanding is limited. Jesus, come into the decisions we are making today. Where there is confusion, bring clarity. Where there are competing voices, help us recognise what is true. Where fear is influencing our choices, settle our hearts and teach us to listen to You. Holy Spirit, give us wisdom that is grounded in God's Word and shaped by love. Help us slow down enough to pray before we react, and give us courage to follow the direction You place before us. Lord, we do not need to know everything. We simply need to trust You with the next step. So we release the pressure of having every answer and place our plans into Your hands. Guide us today, Jesus. Straighten the path before us where You desire us to walk, and give us the confidence to follow You one step at a time. Amen. Blessing: May the Lord give you wisdom for every decision today and guide you faithfully as you trust Him with the road ahead.

There were decisions you made, conversations you had, moments you handled well and perhaps moments you wish you could do differently. This is not a time to punish yourself by replaying everything. It is a time to place the whole day into the hands of God. Father, I pray for those listening in Ireland, South Korea, Botswana, the Netherlands, Israel and Zimbabwe. Thank You that You have been with them through every step today, including the steps they understood and the ones they did not. Where we made mistakes, give us humility without condemnation. Where we made good decisions, keep us grateful rather than proud. And where tomorrow is still uncertain, help us trust that You are already there. Jesus, guide our lives. Establish our steps and teach us to follow You even when we cannot see the whole road ahead. We do not need every answer tonight. We simply need to know that You are faithful. Holy Spirit, quiet the questions that have no answer tonight. Help us leave unfinished conversations, unresolved decisions and tomorrow's responsibilities with God. We breathe, we release the day, and we receive the confidence that comes from knowing we are held by Christ. The road ahead may not be completely visible, but the One who walks with us is faithful. Amen. Blessing: May the Lord establish your steps, renew your confidence and give you peace about tomorrow.

Find us at www.crisisinvesting.com  Doug and Matt discuss escalating Yemen-Houthi conflict impacts, including disruption of Saudi oil infrastructure and potential wider geopolitical fallout as oil supplies to Europe tighten and fuel prices rise. They pivot to U.S. policy and market fragility, criticizing short-term political decision-making (including possible diesel export bans), warning about deficits, rising rates, and a looming financial crisis, while outlining a defensive investment stance favoring gold, agriculture, and energy. They debate AI fear narratives as regulatory capture, question returns on massive AI capital spending, and consider state intervention if major firms fail, noting cheaper Chinese models undercut U.S. frontier labs. Viewer Q&A covers taking state money as a moral dilemma, risk management without stop-losses in illiquid resource stocks, prospects for conflict in Latin America vs. Africa/Middle East, evaluating moral character, Botswana's diamond dependence, legal system critiques, offshore vs. onshore precious-metals storage, private deal drawbacks, and future drone warfare shifting to swarms and eventually nanotechnology. 00:00 News and Viewer Qs 00:08 Houthis and Saudi Setback 06:03 Oil Shock and Markets 08:22 Diesel Export Ban Fallout 10:02 Trade Threats and Politics 13:25 Rates Debt and Bear Case 15:15 AI Fear and Regulation 18:35 China Models and Bubble Risk 21:29 Taking Money from State 24:52 Managing Trades Without Stops 27:25 Wars Latin America Outlook 28:14 Testing Character in Relationships 34:19 Botswana and Diamond Risk 35:59 Legal System as Slavery 37:02 Battle Bank vs Offshore Vaults 38:19 Private Deals Pros and Cons 40:04 Drones Swarms and Nanobots 44:11 Wrap Up and Italy Trip

COSAFA has long been at the forefront of innovation in African football, and the TotalEnergies CAF Under-20 AFCON | COSAFA Qualifier in Mozambique will provide another example of that pioneering approach.In this episode of The COSAFA Show, we take a closer look at new video support technology that will be trialled during the tournament, with COSAFA becoming the first CAF Zonal Union to test the system.Designed to assist referees in making the correct decisions, the technology offers a different approach to the traditional Video Assistant Referee system and could provide another important tool for match officials in the future.COSAFA Referees Manager Felix Tangarawima joins us to explain how the technology works, how it differs from VAR and why COSAFA has been chosen to lead the trial.We also hear from two of the region's leading match officials, South Africa's Akhona Makalima and Botswana's Keabetswe Dintwa, who give their views on the use of technology in refereeing and how it can support officials on the pitch.Also on the episode, we speak to Bolton Wanderers left-back Max Conway, who has set his sights on representing South Africa at international level.Conway discusses his ambitions to play for Bafana Bafana, his South African connection and what it would mean to pull on the national team jersey.It is another packed edition of The COSAFA Show, combining innovation, refereeing and international ambition as the region continues to make its mark on African football.

Send us your feedback — we're listening2 Corinthians 5:17 — A New Creation in Christ: A Morning Prayer for a Fresh Start Themes: Renewal • Identity • Hope Scripture — 2 Corinthians 5:17 (NIV) “If anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come.” Sometimes a new day arrives, but yesterday seems to arrive with it. You remember what went wrong, what you wish you had said differently, or the things you wish you could change. And yet the gospel tells us that our past does not have to become the definition of our future. In Christ, there is a new beginning. Not because we have suddenly become perfect, but because Jesus has done something new in us. His grace gives us permission to stop living as though yesterday still has the final word. Father, I bring You the things I regret, the mistakes I have made and the memories I keep carrying. I do not want to be imprisoned by yesterday. Thank You that in Christ there is forgiveness, renewal and a new identity. I pray for those listening in Ireland, South Korea, Botswana, the Netherlands, Israel, and Zimbabwe. Some may be beginning again after disappointment. Some may simply need fresh courage for another day. Meet them with Your grace, Lord. Jesus, help us to see ourselves through what You have done, rather than through everything we have done wrong. Where shame has become loud, let Your grace speak more deeply. Where disappointment has made us hesitant, give us courage to begin again. Holy Spirit, gently renew our minds today. Help us leave behind what needs to be left behind, while receiving the lessons You have taught us. Give us a clean heart and a steady spirit. I release yesterday into Your hands. I receive today as a gift. And I trust Jesus with the person I am becoming. Amen. Blessing May you walk today in the freedom of Christ, knowing that His grace is greater than your past.

There is a lot to love about the English non-leagues, but it will be hard to top the sensational story that emerged about SE Dons goalie George Desmond Kamurasi last week. The 36-year-old, who plies his trade in England's ninth tier, has been chosen to be the next king of the Tooro people, one of the four traditional kingdoms in Uganda, following the death of his cousin, King Oyo, in late August. There are so many questions to be answered. Who, for example, has chosen him to be the king – and why? Could he miss his cousin's funeral for football? Does he want to be royalty in Africa? And what might happen if he rejects the offer and stays in the UK? Plus, Dominica's national team takes the unusual step of appealing on social media for a new goalkeeper, Vanuatu hosts its first professional matches, and Norwegian side Strømmen send their reserves to the Arctic Circle. You can already listen to Monday's bumper bonus podcast on Patreon.

Join renowned UK homeopath Hilary Faircloth as she shares her personal journey and the story behind the development of her transformative Triad Method. Hear about her groundbreaking work in Botswana through the Maun Homeopathy Project, where she and a team of more than 40 volunteer homeopaths worked with thousands of people affected by HIV, AIDS, and other complex health challenges. Hilary also shares some of the remarkable stories and outcomes documented in her book, offering a powerful glimpse into the work, dedication, and experiences that shaped this extraordinary project.   Episode Highlights: 02:03 - The turning point: How homeopathy reshaped my perspective 04:19 - A magical accident: How I ended up in Botswana 05:35 - The elephant story 12:35 - Unveiling the African understanding of health and spirituality 19:12 - Introducing the Triad Method: A revolutionary approach to Homeopathy 24:57 - Beyond Remedies: The power of intentions and healing space 27:01 - Healing beyond the physical 28:51 - The birth of the River School of Homeopathy 35:07 - The importance of teamwork   About my guest: Hilary Fairclough is a dedicated homeopath with over 25 years of experience, driven by her profound understanding of the limitations of conventional medicine through her work in the NHS. Witnessing the suffering of individuals with chronic illnesses due to the side effects of conventional treatments, Hilary sought a system of medicine that prioritized holistic well-being and embraced the profound experience of illness. This led her to discover homeopathy, a discipline that resonated deeply with her personal philosophy. After training at the London College of Classical Homeopathy, Hilary became a registered member of the Alliance of Registered Homeopaths, where she upholds their Code of Ethics and engages in regular professional supervision. With a background in sociology and nursing, including specializations in community nursing, palliative cancer care, and bereavement counseling, Hilary brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to her practice. She founded and directed The Maun Homeopathy Project, a charity providing free homeopathic outreach clinics for people living with HIV and AIDS in Botswana. Hilary's dedication and achievements in the field of homeopathy have been recognized with the Society of Homeopath's "Outstanding Achievement Award." Currently, she divides her time between treating clients and serving as the Assistant Director of the River School of Homeopathy, where she imparts her experience and passion to shape the future generation of homeopathic practitioners. Hilary practices homeopathy as both a science and an art, utilizing her extensive knowledge and intuition to provide personalized and compassionate care to her clients, creating a safe and nurturing space for healing and growth.   Find out more about Hilary Website: https://hilaryfairclough.com/ Email: info@hilaryfairclough.com   To learn more  about the River School of Homeopathy, please visit their website at https://www.riverschoolofhomeopathy.org   If you would like to support the Homeopathy Hangout Podcast, please consider making a donation by visiting www.EugenieKruger.com and click the DONATE button at the top of the site.

Many conversations about development for focus on aid: how much, from whom, and for how long. But aid has never been more than a small part of what pays for a country's development, and in 2025 it fell by 23.1%. The need to rethink our attitude to development has inspired the Future of Development Cooperation Coalition (FDCC). In this week's episode, Alexia Latortue and Radha Rajkotia of FDCC talk to Tim Phillips about its first report,. The report assesses the development challenges of LMICs using a balance sheet approach, with assets on one side and liabilities on the other. Tax revenue, remittances, pension and sovereign wealth funds, trade, natural resources and the skills of the population sit on the asset side. Unsustainable debt, illicit financial flows, poor credit ratings, weak institutions, climate exposure and conflict sit on the other.The idea? Each country focuses on the policies to develop their most important assets, and minimise their most problematic liabilities. They argue that governments and donors alike should stop thinking of developing countries as recipients of aid, and start thinking of them as partners in economic development.The research behind this episode:Future of Development Cooperation Coalition. 2026. "The Development Balance Sheet: Rethinking Development Cooperation from the Ground Up." Published 20 May 2026. Research team: Radha Rajkotia, John Norris and Mma Amara Ekeruche.To cite this episode:Phillips, Tim, Alexia Latortue, and Radha Rajkotia. 2026. "Rethinking development cooperation: The case for a 'balance sheet' approach." VoxDev Talks (podcast). About the guestsAlexia Latortue is Head of Secretariat of the Future of Development Cooperation Coalition and a Distinguished Non-Resident Fellow at the Center for Global Development. She served as Assistant Secretary for International Trade and Development at the US Treasury, where she led work on reforming the multilateral development banks and on using public finance to pull private capital into emerging markets. She was previously Deputy CEO and Managing Director for Corporate Strategy at the Millennium Challenge Corporation, sat on the Executive Committee of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, and spent ten years at the World Bank working on financial inclusion, ending as Deputy CEO of CGAP.Radha Rajkotia is Director of Research at the Future of Development Cooperation Coalition and lead researcher on this report. She was Chief Executive Officer of Building Markets and, before that, Chief Research and Policy Officer at Innovations for Poverty Action, running its strategy across 22 countries. She spent eleven years leading the economic recovery and development unit at the International Rescue Committee, on work spanning cash-based relief and job creation in conflict settings. She holds a PhD in Refugee Studies from the University of Sussex, is a Senior Policy Fellow at the Henry Leir Institute at Tufts University, and teaches at Georgetown.Research cited in this episodeThe balance sheet approach. The report sets out assets and liabilities but argues that neither is a checklist. Some entries are country-specific, such as natural resource endowments or exposure to climate risk. Others are structural, such as a sovereign credit rating, which constrains or enables progress regardless of what a government does at home. The point of the exercise is situational awareness before prioritisation, not a universal to-do list.The 30 national development strategies. The research team reviewed the current development strategies of 30 countries across Africa, Asia and Latin America. All 30 prioritise economic transformation and human capital. Governance appears as a stand-alone pillar in two-thirds of them. Inequality is a defining element in almost every Latin American strategy and largely absent as an explicit constraint in Africa and Asia. Most countries frame technology as digital economy rather than as AI governance or chip access, which the report reads as a widening sophistication gap.Nigeria and Ethiopia. The report's worked comparison. Ethiopia attracts more than three times Nigeria's foreign direct investment despite being roughly 100 million people smaller. Nigeria has strong tax revenues, considerable pension fund assets, a heavy debt servicing burden and large losses to illicit financial flows. Ethiopia has a narrow tax base and weak compliance, suffers far less from illicit flows, carries a lighter debt service burden and is nonetheless in debt distress.Debt as both asset and liability. Low-income countries spend 18% of government revenue on average servicing foreign debt. Angola, Laos, Bhutan, Pakistan, Egypt, Sudan, the Bahamas, Tunisia, Zambia, Benin and Senegal each spent more than 30% of tax revenues on debt servicing in 2024. As of 2026, 27 countries face a high risk of debt distress and nine are already in it, the majority of them in Africa. Latortue argues that the problem is the price, tenor and currency of debt rather than debt itself, and that restructuring machinery built around the Paris Club has not kept up with a creditor base that now includes China, Gulf states and a large body of commercial lenders.Credit ratings. Only eight countries across Latin America and Africa hold an investment-grade rating from Moody's, Fitch or S&P. They are Chile, Mexico, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Uruguay, Botswana and Mauritius. A UNDP analysis cited in the report estimates that flawed ratings have cost African countries as much as $74.5 billion in excess interest and foregone investment, more than the continent's entire net receipt of official development assistance. The African Union is launching its own credit rating agency in 2026.South-South trade. UNCTAD figures in the report put South-South merchandise exports at about $0.5 trillion in 1995 and $6.8 trillion in 2025. Some 57% of developing-country exports now go to other developing markets. Rajkotia points to the Africa Continental Free Trade Area and to Mercosur as existing infrastructure that could support production integration rather than trade agreements alone.Demographics. Africa's working-age population is expected to double by 2050, which the report treats as an asset conditional on policy. By 2050 only 26% of the world's population is projected to live in Europe, North America and China, falling to 18% by 2100.Domestic capital in Africa. Latortue cites more than $4 trillion of assets held across the African continent, a figure that combines central bank reserves, commercial bank assets, institutional investors, sovereign wealth funds, pensions and insurance. Her argument is that moving even a small share of it into productive investment would outweigh anything aid can now do. The report notes that Ghana mandated 5% of its pension fund for venture capital in 2025 and that Mexico legislated for an allowance of up to 30%.Conflict. The one item Latortue places firmly on one side of the ledger. She counts at least 60 live conflicts worldwide. The Peace Research Institute Oslo recorded more conflicts in 2024 than at any point since the Second World War, and more than half of all conflict-affected states now face at least two separate internal conflicts. Development work has a role in keeping the real economy going, she says, but the solutions are political.More VoxDev Talks episodesThe end of aid dependency. W.

Chris Chavez and Kyle Merber recap a wild day 2 of the 2026 World Athletics Ultimate Championship, including sprint finals, sub-44 history in the men's 400m, an American sweep of the 100m titles, and one of the deepest single days of racing the sport has seen in some timeThe biggest headlines:- Melissa Jefferson-Wooden and Kenny Bednarek gave the United States a sweep of the 100m titles. Jefferson-Wooden ran 10.62 — one hundredth off her personal best from winning the 2025 World title — to beat Julien Alfred (10.74) and Sha'Carri Richardson (10.76). She now has just one 100m defeat since taking bronze in Paris, and stands as the fourth-fastest woman in history.

I'm so sad I now live in a world without Gloria Steinem. Unlike many public personalities, Gloria was the real deal: modest, warm, smart, funny. She took her passion for equality, women's rights and human rights to a place that lit up the world. Gloria played a special role in my life: friend and mentor. She was the first guest on "Now What?" That was 11 years ago. We spoke in the brownstone she lived in since the '60s which is filled with objects she brought back from her travels around the world. Sitting in her living room, we chatted about her childhood, politics, feminism and Cathy, the elephant she rode in Botswana to celebrate her 80th birthday. Gloria wanted to live to be 100. She made it to 92. Her spirit lives on in this conversation. This episode of "Now What?" was produced with the help of Nellie Gilles, Allison Bernstein, Steve Zimmer, Lucy Little and Jackie Schwartz. Audio production is by Nick Ciavatta.

Chris Chavez and Kyle Merber are coming at you live from Budapest with Team USA relay coach and 400m legend Jeremy Wariner. The Olympic and world champion looks back on his legendary career, from winning Olympic gold at just 20 years old to becoming one of the most dominant 400m runners of his generation.Jeremy gets into his race strategy, the brutal workouts that told him he was ready to run fast, racing alongside LaShawn Merritt, and why he never really needed to train for the 200m despite making U.S. Championship finals. He also breaks down how the 400m has evolved, whether modern spikes and technology would have made him faster, and what he thinks of the current crop of 400m stars, including Quincy Wilson and Rai Benjamin.Now a high school coach and member of Team USA's relay staff, Jeremy also shares what he has learned from his longtime coach Clyde Hart, how he approaches coaching young athletes, and what it's like managing rivalries and egos when athletes have to put everything aside to get the stick around. Plus, we get his thoughts on the growing mixed relays, Team USA's battle with Botswana heading toward the 2028 Olympics, his Olympic medals and collection of glasses and uniforms, and whether he could still throw down a 400m if Team USA desperately needed him in 2028.There are also stories about dodging golf balls during practice, running 43-second 400s in workouts, and the one time he ran an 800m.____________Stay tuned for more live coverage from the World Ultimate Championships in the days to come and make sure you're subscribed to the CITIUS MAG YouTube channel so you don't miss any of our interviews.

On March 13, 1930, Adolf Hitler was sitting in the passenger seat of his chauffeur-driven car when a trailer truck sped through an intersection and struck the vehicle, pushing it across the road and stopping just short of crushing it. Everyone survived. Three years later, Hitler became chancellor of Germany. Would tens of millions of people still have died if the truck had killed him? To many people, the answer is obviously yes, because Hitler was uniquely evil. To many others, the answer is obviously no, because the Treaty of Versailles and hyperinflation had already created the conditions for catastrophe. Jared Diamond spent decades trying to figure out who is right, and his answer is: it depends on the circumstances, and we can actually test it. Today's guest is Jared Diamond, author of Guns, Germs, and Steel and now Profits, Prophets, Coaches, and Kings: (When) Do Leaders Matter? We discuss how the inbreeding of European royal families created a natural experiment proving that monarchs' intelligence directly affected national outcomes, why Botswana's founding president is the clearest modern example of an irreplaceable leader because only he could have given away his own tribe's diamond rights without starting a civil war, and why Genghis Khan's conquests depended on rainfall patterns revealed by tree rings. We also see that Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates, and Steve Jobs all made a difference but none of them passes what he calls the Hamlet test. Diamond's framework applies across politics, business, sports, and religion, and his conclusion is that leaders matter most when three conditions align: high discretion, genuine choices between balanced alternatives, and no one else who could have made the same decisions.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Is leadership overrated? That's one simple reading of what Jared Diamond argues in his new book. Asked by Tyler to name the least replaceable leader in human history, Jared declines to name one — not Christ, the Roman Empire having had prophets to spare — and observes that even Genghis Khan happened to be born at an auspicious moment for a conqueror of the steppes. Conditions ripen; somebody turns up. So which leaders do make a difference?   Tyler and Jared debate that question, including conditions what a religious founder needs to succeed, whether destructive leaders matter more than constructive ones, why individual leaders have mattered so little in Papua New Guinea, whether we undervalue preventers, how much Rachel Carson and the Resnicks really mattered, whether Botswana's success will endure, Jared's own place in intellectual history, and what he'd tell an ambitious 25-year-old about how to become consequential. They go on to cover whether New Guineans are smarter, his reasons for why the Industrial Revolution started in England, what he learned from Jim Robinson about natural experiments, why he's more optimistic about the environment than when he wrote Collapse, what he'd do about nuclear risk, the 189 bird species on his street in Los Angeles, why the MacArthur "genius grant" left him depressed for a week, why he's listening to one Bach cantata a week, what he hopes to work on as he enters his nineties, and more.

At the AIDS 2026 Global AIDS Conference in Rio de Janeiro, Ben interviews Dr. mike Reed about how global health technology succeeds or fails depending less on the tools than on governance, ownership, community co-design, and alignment with ministries of health and other relevant government authorities. Reed contrasts Rwanda's scaled Zipline drone deliveries and a government-led “sovereign” AI large language model and real-time health dashboards with the many HIV AI pilots that never scale due to weak partnerships, poor interoperability, and lack of sustainable financing. They discuss AI's potential to support marginalized communities with stigma-free access to information and care navigation, alongside risks around privacy, market capture by big tech, and the need for fair value exchange when community data trains models. Reed highlights a “force multiplier checklist,” Botswana's youth-designed prevention campaign, and the need to speed up rigorous implementation science and data-to-action timelines. 00:00 Intro 00:32 Drones and donor tech 03:45 Why pilots fail 06:56 Rooting tech locally 10:59 Sovereign AI example 12:43 AI for key populations 18:28 Governance and commons 25:06 Force multiplier checklist 29:36 Data sovereignty rules 31:24 Faster science with AI 36:19 Optimistic closing 41:12 Thanks and wrap Learn more about the book: https://bit.ly/redefining-global-health More from UCSF Institute for Global Health Sciences: https://globalhealthsciences.ucsf.edu Check Out mike Reid's Substack: https://substack.com/@reimaginingglobalhealth Check Out Ben's Substack: https://substack.com/@benplumley1 Join the Conversation!

Interview with Daniel Major, CEO of Eastport Critical Metals Recording date: 8th September 2026Eastport Critical Metals Corp. (TSXV:EVI) is a Botswana-focused critical minerals explorer with exposure to copper, rare earth elements, uranium, and nickel-copper-PGM across a combined land package exceeding 4,000 km². The company listed on the TSX-V in November 2025 via a qualifying transaction with Penbar Capital and appointed Daniel Major, former CEO of TSXV-listed GoviEx Uranium, as Chief Executive Officer in July 2026.The flagship asset is Matsitama Copper, a 1,845 km² district-scale position across six prospecting licences in an established copper district, sitting adjacent to the historic Kopano (~1% Cu) and Thakadu (~2% Cu) mines and roughly 10 km from the currently producing Moana mine. The project carries a historical - not current, not NI 43-101-compliant - resource estimate at Nakalakwana Hill of 9.9 Mt at 4,640 ppm Cu (45.5 kt contained copper), based on 2013 SRK Consulting work under the superseded SAMREC 2007 code. Drilling through 2025-2026 has extended the mineralised footprint east and west of the original zone, with three recent holes intersecting more than 100 metres of copper mineralisation at internal higher grades of 0.5% to over 1.5% Cu. Twenty priority targets have been defined across the licence, including the roughly 30 km Copper Snake trend, which the company plans to test with gravity and EM surveys in 2026 ahead of drilling.Semarule (250 km², ~40 km from Gaborone) is Eastport's rare earth optionality, hosting a syenite-carbonatite complex with mineralised outcrop across ~15 km². 2023 rock-chip sampling returned 0.5% total rare earth oxides plus yttrium, roughly a quarter of which is higher-value magnetic rare earth oxide. An eight-hole drill program has intersected mineralisation to depths exceeding 300 metres, with a further assay batch pending at the time of the interview. Management has indicated Semarule could be spun into its own listed vehicle if results confirm scale, given rare earth and base metal investors typically seek different exposure.Foley, a uranium project adjacent to the Letlhakane deposit, returned a maiden RC intercept of 8 m at 553 ppm U₃O₈, supporting the company's palaeochannel exploration model. Selebi-East (nickel-copper-PGM, ~7 km east of the historic Selebi-Phikwe complex) shows Ni-Cu-Co soil anomalies over reprocessed geophysical data but remains earlier-stage with limited historic drilling.Insiders hold 21.77% of the 33,490,774 shares outstanding, a level of alignment the company positions as a differentiator. Management's stated strategy is disciplined sequencing - inexpensive geophysics to define targets, RC drilling to confirm grade, and diamond drilling only once a target is proven - rather than funding all four commodities to feasibility within a single vehicle, with spin-outs or partnerships positioned as the likely route for whichever project demonstrates scale first.Near-term catalysts: 2026 gravity/EM results at Matsitama's Copper Snake trend, and the outstanding Semarule assay batch.Sign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com/subscribe

Ode (@thatsod.e / @thatsod_e) and Mo "Kid" Licorish (@licorishislegit) sit down with author and world traveler Phil the Blerd Explorer to unpack his journey from a university job board ad to nine years teaching English in South Korea, and eventually a second career as a licensed ESL teacher in Atlanta, Georgia. Phil explains how teaching pay, employer-covered housing, and currency exchange rates worked while living abroad, describes the housing discrimination foreign and Black expats can run into in South Korea, and details getting his Washington, D.C. and Georgia teaching licenses within days of each other. The conversation also covers his Black Travel Guide Series, upcoming travel plans across Namibia, Kenya, South Africa, and Botswana, and his advice for staying safe while traveling in countries dealing with visible poverty.Phil then joins the Anime or AniNay game, guessing alongside Ode whether Mo's anime synopses are real or invented, with titles including One Piece, Berserk, Code Geass, Food Wars, Violet Evergarden, Kill la Kill, and Steins;Gate all coming up in play. Big Mad covers Phil's missing teacher badge, Ode's long-running frustration with never learning to drive paired with a breakdown of MARTA and transit expansion in Atlanta, and Mo's criticism of social media platforms failing to flag graphic content for users. Making Us Happy closes the episode with Phil's excitement for Dragon Con and an Atlanta book festival, Ode celebrating friends' pregnancies, and Mo sharing a correctly guessed gender reveal.Phil the Blerd Explorer can be found on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_blerd_e...and TikTok: ⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@theblerdexplo...IndieGoGo: https://www.indiegogo.com/en/projects...Connect with the Snerdy Crew:Watch, Listen, or Sponsor the show: ⁠https://beacons.ai/blackandsnerdy⁠⁠

Datshiane Navanayagam discusses the impact of toxic masculinity in South Africa and South Korea. The United Nations has raised concern about online communities promoting misogynistic and anti-feminist views saying they're a serious threat to gender equality.    Kutlwano Mokgwathi is a doctoral researcher from Botswana, studying at the University of the Western Cape in Cape Town, South Africa - a country with some of the world's highest levels of gender-based violence. Her work is examining the emergence of the “Africana Manosphere” – with a focus on South Africa and Botswana.Seungsook Moon is Professor of Sociology at Vassar College in New York State. She grew up in Seoul, and her research includes gender and social change in South Korea. In particular, she focuses on the remaking of masculinities shaped by neoliberal transformation of economy, politics, and culture locally and globally. South Korea ranked the highest out of 30 countries for how citizens perceive tension between men and women, according to a study by King's College London. But what is driving the country's gender-divide and how is misogyny taking shape online?Produced by Elena Angelides(Image: (L) Kutlwano Mokgwathi, courtesy Kutlwano Mokgwathi.

Hey, DocI'm sharing part of an interview I did on my friend Dr. Weili Gray's podcast, *The Dare to Dream Physician Travel Podcast*. At the time, she had just pivoted her show to focus on travel, and listening back now feels like opening a time capsule.We talk about my journey from Trinidad to Howard University, residency, burnout, entrepreneurship, and coaching. But we also talk about one of my greatest passions: travel.From solo trips through South Africa... to scuba diving on the Great Barrier Reef... to standing inside the slave castles in Ghana while pregnant with my son... this conversation reminded me how much travel has shaped who I am.But the most surprising moment came near the end.I casually said, "I haven't really traveled that much."Then I started listing the places I'd been.Twenty-two countries.Five countries in Africa.Australia. Greece. Turkey. The Seychelles. Botswana. Ghana.I realized, in real time, that my brain had been telling me a story that simply wasn't true.That's what this episode is really about.The stories we believe about ourselves.In this episode, we talk about:- Why I started traveling alone during residency- My love affair with the African continent- The emotional experience of visiting Ghana and the slave castles- How scuba diving became one of my favorite adventures- Why I don't wait for other people before living my life- The surprising lie I realized I'd been telling myself- Why coaching and community help us see ourselves more clearlyOne of the biggest reasons we stay stuck is because we believe our own thoughts without questioning them.Sometimes all it takes is saying them out loud for someone else to hold up a mirror and say, "Wait a minute... that's not actually true."That's the power of community.That's the power of coaching.And sometimes, that's the power of a podcast conversation.
