Podcasts about British Columbia

In November 2019, hikers traveling through a remote mountain region in British Columbia discovered a burned-out truck abandoned on a rugged forest trail. The area lies deep within the Tolkien Range, far away from any roads and even farther from the life of the man who owned the vehicle. The truck belonged to 26-year-old IT student Marshal Iwaasa, who had last been seen nearly 700 miles away in Alberta. How his truck ended up there and what happened to him remains a mystery. Just days later, another man, Daniel Reock, disappeared under strange circumstances not far from the same region. Are these two cases connected, or is it a chilling coincidence? Join Cam and Jen as they discuss '700 Miles to Nowhere: Marshal Iwassa.'

After many years of living in the higher realms of awareness, Ashley shares what it has felt like to come back down into the body and into the earth. In this personal update episode, she reflects on the past week of releasing the new A Line Within website, the first version of the site she truly feels proud of, and the deeper shift that occurred through the process. For the first time, she experienced what real nervous system regulation feels like in action. Not constant calm, but the natural rhythm between movement and rest. Knowing when to take action. Knowing when nothing more is required. Ashley explores how intuition actually moves through the body when the nervous system is regulated, and how this creates a completely different way of living and creating. She also shares reflections on a powerful meteor event seen over their home in British Columbia, the arrival of early spring, and the profound transformation she has experienced through the North Node work she is currently teaching. Two spaces remain in the current North Node journey, and Ashley shares why this work has been so meaningful in her own life. This episode is a reflection on embodiment, intuition, and what becomes possible when we return fully to ourselves. ********** Our New A Line Within Website! 2 Spots Left for the North Node - Sign Up Here Attend Ashley's Equinox New Moon Session Awaken Your Inner Guide in our GUIDED Membership  How to do The Line Activation ALN Live Events through March Book a Journey Home Akashic Records Reading with Faith Sign Up for Our Newsletter and Enter to Win a Free Year in GUIDED Download the A Line Within App for iOS Download the A Line Within App for Android Follow on Instagram @alnwithin and TikTok @alnwithin

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.Nextech3D.ai (CSE: NTAR) kicked off 2026 with strong momentum, announcing 50 new customer contracts worth approximately $230,000 for its AI-powered event technology platforms Eventdex, Map D, and Krafty Labs. These are all first-time customers and reflect a 73% increase in average deal size year over year, rising from $2,641 in early 2025 to $4,578 in 2026. Management says this growth highlights accelerating adoption of its unified AI event platform across enterprise, education, and government markets, as it continues integrating its technology stack into a scalable event operating system.Banyan Gold (TSXV: BYN) reported additional high-grade drill results from the Airstrip deposit at its AurMac Project in Yukon. Highlights include 6.80 grams per tonne gold over 9.3 metres and 2.99 grams per tonne over 5.7 metres, along with broad intervals such as 0.50 grams per tonne over 102.7 metres. Management says step-out drilling near the conceptual pit shell could support converting previously modeled waste into ore in an upcoming Mineral Resource Estimate update. With over 7.7 million ounces already defined in indicated and inferred resources, Banyan continues to strengthen and refine its large-scale gold system.Spanish Mountain Gold (TSX-V: SPA) delivered standout results from its 2025 Fall Drill Program at its Spanish Mountain Gold Project in British Columbia. One hole intersected 282.50 metres grading 0.70 grams per tonne gold, including 116.80 metres at 1.20 grams per tonne and a high-grade subset of 12.20 metres at 2.46 grams per tonne. Mineralization has now been traced across 530 metres of strike length in the Orca Fault area. The company is advancing toward a potential construction decision in 2027 and continues tightening drill spacing to enhance its open-pit resource model.Nevada Sunrise (TSXV: NEV) confirmed a historical gold intercept at its Griffon Gold Mine Project in Nevada through a 2025 resampling program. The company returned 1.013 grams per tonne gold over 50.2 metres, closely matching 2020 results, and identified key pathfinder elements commonly associated with Carlin-type gold deposits. Management says this new geochemical data will help guide future drill targeting as the company advances permitting for a planned 2026 drill program in the prolific Battle Mountain–Eureka Gold Belt.Power Metallic (TSXV: PNPN) reported what it describes as its best copper intersection to date at the Lion Zone within its Nisk Project in Quebec. Hole PML-26-049 intersected 16.55 metres grading 15.11% copper equivalent recovered, including 10.08% copper, along with gold, silver, palladium, platinum, and nickel. The company is conducting infill and step-out drilling to support a planned 2026 Mineral Resource Estimate and has highlighted strong metallurgical recoveries underpinning its copper-equivalent calculations. Management continues to target a near-term Preliminary Economic Assessment as drilling advances.For more breaking small-cap news, in-depth coverage, and exclusive CEO interviews, follow AGORACOM and subscribe to the AGORACOM podcast to stay ahead of the market.

Rob Nelson and Peter Parnegg explore the idea that fun should not be the reward for success but the fuel for it. The conversation begins with Peter sharing a 30 year life list goal he is about to achieve, a father son heli skiing trip in British Columbia. That story opens a broader discussion about how many professionals postpone joy until "someday" while building businesses that quietly consume their lives. Rob and Peter suggest that fun requires intention and planning. If it is not scheduled, work will always take its place. They contrast bucket list thinking, which often waits until later in life, with life list thinking, which prioritizes meaningful experiences now. The episode also connects fun to productivity, arguing that energy, presence, and joy improve performance rather than distract from it. Whether through small daily moments or major life list experiences, the message is clear: success should include a life you are actively enjoying, not just building. Key Takeaways Fun should be treated as fuel for success rather than something postponed until later Meaningful experiences require intention and scheduling or work will consume the time Small joyful moments can be just as powerful as big life list events Energy and consciousness are the most important professional tools and fun helps renew both Memorable Quotes "What if fun is actually the fuel for success?" "Fun requires intention." "Happiness is not the result of a sale. A sale is a result of happiness." "When there's that moment of should we do it or not, the answer is yes."

The Vancouver housing market has always been shaped by powerful forces — interest rates, government policy, global economics, and human psychology. But in early 2026, those forces appear to be colliding all at once, creating one of the most uncertain real estate environments the city has faced in decades.In this episode, we unpack the latest data revealing how dramatically the market has shifted. Sales in February fell another 10% year over year, following the lowest annual sales volumes in a quarter century. At the same time, home prices have now declined for 11 consecutive months — marking the second-longest price downturn in the region's modern history. For homeowners, investors, and prospective buyers alike, the central question is becoming unavoidable: how much further can the market adjust?Part of the answer lies in the broader economic backdrop. The market that once surged during the stimulus-driven boom of 2021 — fueled by ultra-low interest rates and unprecedented liquidity — is now navigating a dramatically different landscape. Today's environment is defined by global conflict, trade tensions, job insecurity, rapid technological disruption from artificial intelligence, and ongoing legal and political developments around land claims. The result is a level of uncertainty that has effectively frozen large segments of the housing market.At the same time, government policy is once again stepping into the spotlight. With transactions slowing and tax revenues under pressure, policymakers are beginning to introduce measures designed to stimulate activity. One of the most notable is the federal government's proposed housing affordability legislation, Bill C-4. If finalized, the measure would eliminate the federal GST on qualifying new homes for first-time buyers, potentially saving purchasers up to $50,000. While supporters argue this could meaningfully improve affordability, critics question whether demand-side incentives will meaningfully address supply shortages or simply inflate prices once again.Mortgage stress is also beginning to appear in the data. Canada's mortgage arrears rate has climbed to a five-and-a-half-year high, while British Columbia's arrears rate has reached its highest level in nearly a decade. Although the numbers remain low historically, the trend is notable — particularly as 2026 represents the largest mortgage renewal year in Canadian history. With millions of borrowers transitioning from ultra-low pandemic-era rates to significantly higher borrowing costs, economists are watching closely to see whether arrears continue to rise.Interest rate expectations remain relatively stable for now. Bond yields have recently moved higher following geopolitical tensions, pushing fixed mortgage rates upward as well. The Bank of Canada is widely expected to hold rates steady through most of 2026, leaving borrowers with little - further -  relief in the near term.And yet, not all signals point to collapse. Days on market have recently shortened, suggesting some buyers are beginning to re-enter the market as prices soften. Meanwhile, the sales-to-active listings ratio has moved out of deep buyer-market territory — a reminder that Vancouver's market rarely stays in extreme conditions for long.The coming months will determine whether this downturn becomes the longest in Vancouver's modern housing history — or whether the marke _________________________________ Contact Us To Book Your Private Consultation:

In October of 1955, a highway worker and experienced outdoorsman named William Roe climbed Mica Mountain in British Columbia on his own time, with no particular expectation of finding anything unusual. What he encountered near the summit that afternoon would stay with him for the rest of his life — and nearly two years later, he'd walk into a notary's office in Edmonton, Alberta, and swear a legal affidavit about it, making his account one of the first formally documented close-range Sasquatch encounters in North American history.This episode tells Roe's story as close to his own experience as the historical record allows. Drawing entirely from his sworn affidavit and the subsequent research of John Green, Ivan T. Sanderson, and others who documented the case carefully in the years that followed, we walk through the encounter from the first glimpse through the brush to the moment she disappeared back into the timber — including the moment Roe raised his rifle, looked through the sight, and made a decision he'd spend the rest of his life thinking about.Roe wasn't a man who sought attention.He was a trapper, a hunter, a working man who'd spent more time in serious wilderness than most people spend indoors, and who knew the difference between what belonged in a forest and what didn't. What he saw on Mica Mountain that October afternoon was a large, upright, bipedal creature — female, covered in dark silver-tipped brown hair, standing roughly six feet tall, with a face that he could only describe as more human-like than he'd expected or was prepared for. She was eating wild cherry leaves near an old abandoned cabin when he found her. She walked away on two feet when she was ready to go. And at the edge of the forest, she looked back.We also dig into why this account has held up under decades of scrutiny, what the sworn affidavit represents as a piece of evidence, and how the anatomical and behavioral details Roe recorded in 1955 would later align, in striking ways, with what hundreds of independent witnesses would describe in the years that followed.If you've had your own encounter and want to share it, reach out at brian@paranormalworldproductions.com.

Send a textWhat if the real value of prepping isn't gear or drama, but peace of mind when small crises stack up? We kick off with a spring reset and a candid question: is all the time, money, and effort we put into being ready actually worth it? Then we put that doubt under a microscope, drawing fresh lessons from two very different watches and a week of confusing headlines.First, we unpack American Apocalypse, a tight, indie post-apocalyptic film that skips the cause of collapse and zeroes in on choices that matter. Light and smoke discipline. Keeping a low profile. The risky calculus of helping a stranger with a story that might be true. It's not about fantasy scenarios; it's about friction points you could face even in a prolonged outage or neighborhood unrest. The film's hard ending drives home a quiet truth: resilience is built on small, layered decisions, not one grand gesture.We trade cinematic tension for real skills with Finding Nowhere, a British Columbia series where a seasoned outdoorsman mentors his city cousin. No caricatures here—just humility, rifle safety, ice fishing, remote living, and a deep respect for the animals and landscapes that feed us. It's a reminder that capability grows by doing, reflecting, and sharing. Gear helps, but mindset, ethics, and repetition do the heavy lifting.Then we turn to the noise online. A diverted Southwest flight labeled a bomb threat, a chaotic protest near Gracie Mansion, and viral posts that skip verification in favor of outrage. We peel back the claims and explain why getting multiple sources is a core survival skill. Bad info breeds bad reactions. Good info creates options and calm.Our takeaway is simple and strong: steady prepping still pays. A 20-minute pantry rotation each month, a clear water plan, backup power, and first aid transform uncertainty into manageable inconvenience. Maybe you'll never face a dramatic collapse—great. But when blackouts, storms, or supply hiccups hit, you won't be scrambling. You'll be ready.If this resonates, follow along for practical steps you can start today.

In this episode of the Mindful Hunter Podcast, I sit down with outdoor photographer Sam Averett to talk about hunting, storytelling, and the strange intersection between the two. Sam and I first met on a mountain goat hunt in British Columbia — the kind of hunt that makes you feel like you're standing on the moon. But beyond the mountains, Sam has quietly built one of the most respected careers in hunting media, working behind the camera with some of the biggest brands and personalities in the outdoor space. We dive into how Sam went from growing up hunting out the back door in eastern Oregon to working for the Forest Service and eventually making the leap into full-time photography. Along the way we talk about mentorship, breaking into the outdoor industry, and why relationships matter more than talent early in your career. The conversation also explores something that doesn't get talked about enough: the tension between documenting the hunt and actually experiencing it. In a world full of influencers and constant content, Sam made a deliberate choice to stay behind the camera and focus on the craft rather than building a personal brand around dead animals and social media validation. We also get into the art of capturing real moments in the mountains, the difference between filming your own hunts versus having someone document them, and why some of the most powerful stories in hunting might still be told through writing and print rather than short digital films. This is a thoughtful conversation about creativity, authenticity, and staying grounded in an industry that's changing fast. If you've ever wondered what goes on behind the lens of the best hunt films and photos in the industry — this episode is for you.   Sam Averett https://www.instagram.com/samaverett/ https://www.samaverett.com/   Jay Nichol jay@mindfulhunter.com https://www.mindful-reviews.com/ https://www.mindfulhunter.com/   Forged In The Backcountry https://forgedinthebackcountry.com/   Merch https://www.mindfulhunter.com/shop   Newsletter https://www.mindfulhunter.com/contact   IG https://www.instagram.com/mindful_hunter/   Podcast https://www.mindfulhunter.com/podcast   Free Backcountry Nutrition Guide https://www.mindfulhunter.com/tools      

Recent developments around Indigenous land rights have quickly become one of the most consequential—and least understood—policy discussions unfolding in British Columbia today. At the center of the debate is a newly announced “Rights Recognition” agreement between the federal government and the Musqueam Nation, a framework that signals a shift in how Canada acknowledges Indigenous authority within traditional territories across the Lower Mainland.For decades, governments typically treated Indigenous claims as unresolved legal disputes to be negotiated or settled through treaties. This agreement marks a notable evolution. Instead of simply acknowledging that claims exist, the federal government is formally recognizing that the Musqueam possess Aboriginal title within their traditional territory—an area that includes large portions of Metro Vancouver. While the agreement does not immediately alter land titles or the land registry, it establishes a framework for what officials describe as “incremental implementation,” meaning changes could unfold gradually through policy, negotiations, and future legal interpretations.For many residents, the implications are difficult to interpret. Nearly two million homeowners live within the broader area referenced in Musqueam traditional territory, and questions have emerged about how this recognition might intersect with long-standing concepts of private property ownership. Legal experts emphasize that the agreement is not a treaty and does not directly override existing property rights. However, it acknowledges a legal “burden” on Crown sovereignty—essentially recognizing an underlying Indigenous interest in the land that could shape future governance, land management, and resource decisions.Adding to the complexity is the broader legal context. Canada's commitment to aligning policy with the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP) establishes new standards for how governments consult and collaborate with Indigenous nations. To explore the issue in greater depth, this episode features Dallas Brodie, MLA for Vancouver-Quilchena and interim leader of OneBC. A former defence lawyer and broadcaster, Brodie has been one of the most outspoken political figures commenting on the implications of Indigenous rights frameworks and land-title recognition. Her perspective reflects a growing conversation taking place across the province about how reconciliation, economic development, and private property rights intersect in the years ahead.Throughout the discussion, we examine the legal mechanics of the Musqueam agreement, the role of federal and provincial governments, and how emerging court decisions recognizing Aboriginal title may influence future policy. We also explore questions surrounding transparency, the relationship between reconciliation initiatives and economic investment, and how governments can provide clarity for residents navigating these complex developments.As British Columbia continues to evolve its approach to Indigenous relations and land governance, one thing is clear: the conversation around land rights, shared authority, and reconciliation is entering a new and pivotal phase. Understanding the legal, economic, and political dimensions of these changes will be essential for policymakers, homeowners, and investors alike. _________________________________ Contact Us To Book Your Private Consultation:

Since then, the sense of loss and confusion over what happened has been overwhelming. This accident has impacted everyone in the Truckee and Lake Tahoe community on some level. Because of pending investigations, there are so many unanswered questions that will remain unanswered for a long time.As the community struggles to understand, people around the world continue to die in avalanches, including our friend, Stratton Matteson, who was taken by an avalanche in British Columbia a week after the Frog Lake accident. A gut punch made worse by finding out only minutes after we recorded the recap of our trip to Frog Lake. A trip to Frog Lake ending only 48 hours before the accident. Losing Stratton as we recorded made us realize it was too early to share. We needed more time to look inward and reflect.This episode is our second attempt, focused on the realizations we've had in the 18 days since the incident, and what we can all personally do to honor the lives lost, as well as move forward with compassion and a commitment to being safe and making smart decisions every time we step into the backcountry.We send our deepest sympathies to everyone involved in this tragic accident, and we encourage you to consider making a contribution to Tahoe Nordic Search and Rescue. We also urge you to not forget the names of those lost: Carrie Atkin, Lizabeth Clabaugh, Danielle Keatley, Kate Morse, Caroline Sekar, Katherine Vitt, Nicole Choo, Andrew Alissandratos, Michael Henry. 2:10 – 75 percent of this winter's snow came from 2 storms.8:00 – Reflecting on the moments leading up to the avalanche near Frog Lake on February 17.9:00 – Being pulled into the media frenzy in the hours after the avalanche.10:20 – Why we decided to speak up to the media about the avalanche.11:30 – The major red flag: the snowfall forecast.15:35 – Trail Whisperer issues an apology to families of the victims regarding our story in the New York Times.18:50 – The 8 Cs of dealing with a community tragedy.22:30 – The culture of judgement of avalanche accidents in the U.S.27:00 – Tom's sobering realization skiing on the Tuesday of the avalanche.32:15 – It's ok to not travel on high avalanche danger days.35:00 – Pow Bot shares his revelations from soul searching after the accident.37:20 – The Normalization of Deviance42:45 – Reviewing the Sierra Avalanche Center report of the avalanche below Perry's Peak.49:45 – Reviewing the human factor in avalanches from Bruce Tremper's book, Staying Alive in Avalanche Terrain.53:50 – Accountability – know what you're stepping out into, even if you are with a guide, and don't be afraid to speak up.55:40 – Planning around safety and implementing processes to eliminate group think.59:50 – Knowing your team, their specialties and how you can leverage them.1:02:20 – “Stick with the plan” versus “sick with the plan” and establishing the leader.1:04:35 – The importance of the debrief at the end of the day.1:06:10 – Matteo – East Coast Matt – calls in on the COR LORD hotline.1:08:20 – DOPE OR DERP – East coast backcountry skiing.1:09:30 – The importance of hiring a guide to help you learn the backcountry.1:12:00 – The assumption of risk and respecting people's differing levels of risk.1:13:50 – The boys get fired up for their trip to Ice Creek Lodge in British Columbia, Canada.1:18:00 – Honoring the life of Stratton Matteson – a legend taken way too early.1:22:50 – The funny story of Pow Bot's incident command rescuing a family member.

Interview with Steve Letwin, Chairman of Cassiar GoldOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/cassiar-gold-tsxvgldc-updated-23m-oz-project-fast-tracked-by-existing-infrastructure-8018Recording date: 2nd March 2026Cassiar Gold (TSXV:GLDC) is a pre-production junior gold company with a materially different risk profile to most of its peers at an equivalent stage of development. The project, located in northeastern British Columbia, benefits from over $100 million in pre-existing infrastructure including an operating mill, a camp, a core shack, an active tailings pond, and 170 kilometres of road acquired by the company for approximately $1 million worth of Cassiar shares. That infrastructure advantage has allowed the company to direct capital toward resource development, producing a current mineral resource of approximately 2.5 million ounces across two distinct geological zones.The project's chairman is Steve Letwin, who served as president and CEO of IAMGOLD from 2010 to 2020 and oversaw the development of the Côté Gold mine in Ontario, including securing a $450 million strategic investment from Japan's Sumitomo Corporation. Letwin holds over 7 million shares and has not sold a single one, representing meaningful alignment with retail and institutional investors. He is now applying the same development logic to Cassiar that he used at Côté: build the case, demonstrate the path to cash flow, and bring in a strategic partner with the balance sheet to accelerate development.The near-term strategy centres on Cassiar South, a high-grade narrow-vein system that historically produced at grades of 15–20 g/t. The existing mill is currently being refurbished by an engaged specialist firm, with metallurgical work running in parallel and completion expected within the current quarter. The mill is being optimised for Cassiar South feed at approximately 200 tonnes per day which is a scale Letwin argues generates compelling economics at current gold prices near $5,300 per ounce, with the refurbishment cost characterised as a rounding error relative to projected revenue.A Preliminary Economic Assessment targeting August 2025 will formalise the economics across three project components: Cassiar South high-grade mining, tailings reprocessing, and the longer-dated Cassiar North bulk tonnage open-pit scenario approximately one kilometre from the mill. Together, these represent a staged, self-funding development model in which early cash flow from Cassiar South finances further vein drilling and eventually supports the capital case for Cassiar North reducing ongoing dilution for shareholders.Key de-risking factors already in place include a live operating permit, direct highway access, settled First Nations agreements including a 0.8% NSR impact benefit agreement, a friendly BC jurisdiction, and a 59,000-hectare permitted land package with comprehensive road coverage. These are the same boxes Letwin ticked at Côté before Sumitomo committed capital, and they are the attributes he is now presenting to prospective strategic partners at Cassiar.The principal risks are execution-related: mill refurbishment timeline, metallurgical outcomes, PEA results, and the terms and timing of any strategic deal. Investors should treat the August 2026 PEA as the next material de-risking milestone and monitor the strategic partnership process as the potential step-change catalyst for the company's valuation.View Cassiar Gold's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/cassiar-goldSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Interview with Claudia Tornquist, President and CEO & Christopher Taylor, Chairman of Kodiak CopperOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/kodiak-copper-tsxvkdk-maiden-resource-hits-24b-lbs-to-show-potential-8750Recording date: 2nd of March 2026Kodiak Copper Corp. is positioning for significant growth after releasing its maiden resource estimate at the MPD copper-gold project in southern British Columbia in December 2025. Speaking at the PDAC conference in Toronto, President and CEO Claudia Tornquist and Founder and Chairman Christopher Taylor outlined an aggressive expansion strategy designed to double the resource base while maintaining capital discipline.The initial resource estimate totals 440 million tons of mineralisation containing 2.4 billion pounds of copper and 1.7 million ounces of gold across indicated and inferred categories. This follows seven years of district consolidation and over 90,000 meters of drilling, incorporating significant historical data from previous operators.Management characterised the resource as "a starting point not a finish line," emphasising substantial expansion potential. The company plans a sizable drill program in 2026 focused on systematic infill drilling and testing high-priority extensions. With 70,000 meters of historical exploration drilling creating defined gaps in the resource, management expressed confidence in substantially growing tonnage within 12 months, with an updated resource estimate expected in Q1 2027.The strategy comes as copper sector consolidation accelerates. Hudbay Minerals' recent acquisition of Arizona Sonoran Copper at a 30% premium represents the first material transaction involving a non-producing copper company, validating strategic interest in earlier-stage assets as majors seek to secure future supply amid electrification-driven demand growth.Tornquist explained that demonstrating the project can reach approximately 880 million tons would bring Kodiak into the size range of more advanced peers such as Faraday Copper, Cisco Metals, and Northisle, which trade at multiples of Kodiak's current valuation. Beyond resource expansion at known zones, the company has identified over 20 additional exploration targets across the MPD property, offering substantial discovery upside.With $56 million raised to date and only 96 million shares outstanding, Kodiak has maintained relatively low dilution while advancing the project, positioning the company for increased institutional participation as it transitions from explorer to developer status.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/kodiak-copper-corpSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Both Mark Carney and Pierre Poilievre were overseas this week, as the prime minister made stops in India, Australia and Japan and the opposition leader visited Germany and the United Kingdom. But while the trips were foreign, the politics are always domestic.This week on The Numbers, we take a look at polling numbers that shed some light on what Canadians think about a few hot button foreign policy issues and what bearing that could have on Liberal and Conservative support. We also chat about some of the latest federal polling numbers, including a new Léger poll that awards the Liberals a 14-point lead. Plus, we discuss some new provincial polls in Alberta, British Columbia and Quebec, where support for independence has hit a new low.Looking for even more of The Numbers?

In this installment, Daniel finds something he never expected: normalcy. A job at a local pizza place, the simple rhythm of work and home, the blessed absence of danger. After everything they've survived, boring feels like a gift.Meanwhile, Brian's podcast has exploded beyond anything he imagined. Five million downloads.Tens of thousands of community members. Emails pouring in from witnesses who've carried their secrets for decades, finally finding a place where someone believes them. A seventy-eight-year-old woman writes to share an encounter she's hidden since 1952, and Brian remembers exactly why he does this work.But success brings complications. For every credible witness, there are a dozen others whose stories fall apart under scrutiny. A construction worker from British Columbia claims an intimate encounter with a female Sasquatch, and Brian is forced to draw hard lines about what belongs on the show.Then a retired nurse from New Mexico shares something different entirely: a story of a young Navajo man brought to her hospital in 1992, speaking of being taken by "the big people," and the federal agents who confiscated every piece of evidence before intimidating him into silence. The wheat and the chaff. Sorting one from the other becomes Brian's constant burden. Then the men in black return. Different faces, same cold authority. They come with an offer: classified documents revealing decades of suppressed research, interdimensional hypotheses, everything Brian has been searching for. The price? Stop pushing for official disclosure. Become a partner in managing the truth rather than forcing it into the light. Brian refusesEighteen months later, they burn his studio to the ground. But fire has a way of spreading what it's meant to destroy. The attack makes national news. Donations flood in. A major network offers a television deal with full editorial control. And soon Brian finds himself leading an expedition into the Pisgah with a full production crew, thermal cameras, and night vision equipment.On the eighth night, in a hollow near where Austin Mercer vanished, the forest comes alive with wood knocks and howls. The creatures stay just beyond the cameras, too smart to be caught clearly, but their presence is undeniable.It isn't definitive proof.But it's evidence the world will have to reckon with.And at a simple wooden cross marking where Austin was last seen, Brian says a quiet prayer for all those who've disappeared into these ancient mountains, and for the truth still waiting to be found.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.Have you had a Bigfoot encounter, Sasquatch sighting, Dogman experience, or other cryptid or paranormal encounter?

Inspired by the approaching time change, we spring forward into two songs about winter sunlight and, specifically, Seasonal Affective Disorder. We expect a spooky twist from Lemon Demon's "SAD", but it mostly does what's written on the tin. There's also a literal story of SAD in Sunturns' "First Winter", but with layers of meaning and metaphor that give it the vibrancy of a sunrise. The ranking music in this episode is "Aurora Borealis" by Lemon Demon. Fun fact: we recorded this exactly one day before British Columbia announced that it's adopting permanent Daylight Savings Time, so we got to this theme just in time!!!

Dario Phillips, co-founder of Slowtide, built the surf industry's most recognizable beach towel brands by betting on a single product category and surrounding it with authentic art, meaningful collaborations, and a clear brand identity. In this conversation, Dario traces the full founder arc — from marketing director at Quiksilver to rolling the dice on 800 towels in a Venice Beach garage. He talks about the realities of licensing deals, co-founding remotely across two islands, and why a decade of building has taught him to trust his team's instincts over outside hires. He also shares how Slowtide is expanding beyond towels into outerwear and new product categories, while staying grounded in the values that started it all.A few of the topics from the conversation:Leaving Corporate Board Sports to Co-Found SlowtideThe Case for Category-Specific BrandsLicensing as a Growth StrategyCo-Founding Across Time Zones and IslandsFounder Confidence Over Outside HiresSustainable Growth and Giving BackLinks:SlowtideSlowtide's Custom ProductsSlowtide x New Balance Connect with Christian on LinkedInThe KORE Podcast is a production of the Kootenay Outdoor Recreation Enterprise.

In this episode, we break down a truly unexpected UFO story. A recent interview with former U.S. President Barack Obama ended with a rapid-fire round of questions, and one of them, about the existence of aliens, set off a strange chain reaction. The moment quickly spiraled beyond the interview itself, leading to current President Donald Trump announcing a full release of government files on UFOs, and even resulting in Hillary Clinton being asked about the topic during a deposition connected to Jeffrey Epstein. In the episode's second act, we dig into a collection of listener-submitted UFO sightings from across Canada. The stories include two mysterious cylindrical objects appearing over Alberta, a triangular craft spotted in the sky above Ontario, and a strange, deeply spiritual encounter reported in British Columbia.

Guests: Kyra Klein, Physiotherapist & Shamanic Healer | Matthew Johnson, Somatic Therapist Business: Body Language | Squamish, BC | trainbodylanguage.com   What if the pain you feel in your body is actually the voice of something your mind hasn't found words for yet? In this episode, hosts Harmony Slater and Russell Case sit down with two extraordinary healers—Kyra Klein and Matthew Johnson, co-creators of Body Language in Squamish, British Columbia—to explore what it really means to heal the whole human system.   Kyra is Harmony's cousin, reunited through Ancestry.com in one of the most unexpected family stories you'll ever hear. A trained physiotherapist, yoga teacher, and shamanic practitioner, Kyra has spent over a decade learning to read the body's deepest stories through touch, intuition, and energy work. Her partner Matt came to healing through a radically different path—as a nationally ranked sport climbing coach who suppressed his emotions with elite precision, until a family loss and near-death illness shattered everything he thought he knew.   Together, Kyra and Matt have built a practice that bridges physiotherapy, somatic therapy, breathwork, shamanic ceremony, and psychedelic integration—because they've learned that no single modality can heal the whole person.   In this conversation, you'll discover: Why the body stores emotional and traumatic history in physical form How Matt's three-month health crisis—where he lost a third of his body weight and negotiated with death itself—became his initiation into healing What somatic therapy offers that traditional talk therapy cannot How Kyra reads the emotional story underneath physical symptoms through touch The difference between caring for someone and carrying them Why breathwork ceremony can be as powerful as psychedelic medicine What the Pacha Mesa shamanic tradition teaches about reconnecting to the natural world How integration is the missing piece in most healing journeys Why the West is finally waking up to what indigenous and Eastern traditions have always known   This conversation is rich, tender, occasionally hilarious, and deeply grounded in the lived experience of two people who chose to turn toward their own healing—and built a business helping others do the same.   ⭐ Want to go deeper? The full conversation about Harmony and Russell's personal journeys with Kyra and Matt—including their integration experiences—is available exclusively inside the Finding Harmony Community: community-harmonyslater.com   Timestamps [00:00] Welcome to Finding Harmony [01:00] Introducing Today's Theme: Whole Human Healing [03:00] Meet Kyra Klein & Matthew Johnson: Body Language, Squamish BC [06:00] The Ancestry.com Discovery: How Harmony Found Her Cousin [09:00] Soul Collision: How Kyra and Matt Met on Hinge and Knew Immediately [12:00] What It Means to Build a Relationship Around Healing [14:00] Matt's Background: Canadian National Sport Climbing Coach [15:30] The Moment Everything Broke: A Family Loss and a Health Crisis [18:00] Three Months Without Food: Negotiating with Death [21:00] Cashews, Consciousness, and Coming Back [24:00] Kyra's Spiritual Awakening: Spirits in Her Bedroom as a Child [28:00] From High-Performance Sport to Physiotherapy: The Body as Teacher [32:00] Kyra's Approach: Reading the Emotional Story Beneath Physical Symptoms [38:00] The Mind-Body Split: What Western Medicine Got Wrong [40:00] Somatic Therapy: Getting Out of the Story and Back into the Body [44:00] Why Intense Practice Can Be a Way to Avoid Feeling [47:00] Body Language: Learning to Understand What Your Body Is Saying [52:00] How Healing Happens in Stillness [56:00] Matt's Spiritual Awakening Through Meditation [59:00] Kyra's First Psilocybin Journey and the Birth of Something New [01:01:00] Integration: Why Openings Without Integration Don't Stick [01:04:00] The Pacha Mesa Shamanic Tradition: Earth-Honoring Philosophy [01:09:00] Cultural Appropriation and Sacred Transmission [01:11:00] Ceremony, Ritual, and What We've Lost as a Culture [01:14:00] How Kyra and Matt Set Sacred Space for Breathwork Ceremonies [01:18:00] The Power of Collective Healing [01:19:00] Where to Find Body Language   Connect with Kyra & Matt Website: trainbodylanguage.com Instagram: @trainbodylanguage Somatic therapy & psychedelic integration support available virtually (sliding scale pricing) Physiotherapy, shamanic therapy, and holistic sessions in Squamish, BC   Resources Mentioned Gabor Maté – Compassionate Inquiry Professional Training Pacha Mesa Tradition teachers: Robin and Darcy Heart of the Healer tradition How to Change Your Mind – Michael Pollan Ancestry.com   Key Takeaways The body stores emotional and traumatic history as physical pattern Healing is a lifelong path—you either turn toward yourself or you don't Somatic therapy gets you out of your story and back into felt experience Integration is the missing piece in most spiritual and healing journeys Breathwork ceremony can occasion mystical experience without plant medicine You can become addicted to anything—even spiritual practice—as a way to avoid feeling Genuine spiritual connection to the natural world is what the West is hungry for Your outer healer helps clear the path; the healing intelligence lives inside you

Why should we be jealous of British Columbia?

Will you leave this episode feeling uplifted, envious, curious, or something else entirely? Yes. Billy-Ray Belcourt's poem “Subarctica” transports you to a vividly specific time — “the coldest December / on record, I haven't left my mother's / house in over a week” — where the primary view is of poplars in “a tiny schoolyard”. Amid the simplicity and snow, the speaker shifts their perspective, seeing beyond their past and towards the wonder in their present and in what is to come.  We invite you to subscribe to Pádraig's weekly Poetry Unbound Substack, read the Poetry Unbound books and his newest work, Kitchen Hymns, or listen to all our Poetry Unbound episodes.   Billy-Ray Belcourt is a writer from the Driftpile Cree Nation.

In this NBN episode, host Hollay Ghadery speaks with acclaimed author Lindsay Wong about her novel, Villain Hitting for Vicious Little Nobodies (Penguin Random House Canada, 2026). A woman signs her life away in the ancient Chinese tradition of corpse marriage in this wickedly hilarious novel about class, ambition, and the burden of being an impoverished model minority.Poor, vicious Locinda Lo is a nobody with a powerful witch for a grandmother and an undead corpse-kid-sister as her only friend. A broke MFA dropout living in Vancouver with six roommates and zero job prospects, she's buried so deep in debt she might as well be six feet under—and her family is in danger of being buried along with her.Desperate to escape her financial woes and save her grandmother and sister, Locinda signs a contract with a nefarious company, Joyful Coffin & Co. Matchmaking Services, to be auctioned off as a corpse bride to the highest bidder. Next thing she knows, she's being smuggled underground into the damp caves where her training coffin awaits.As Locinda prepares for a rich, dying dearly beloved to claim her as his bride-to-be in the Afterlife, her past becomes twisted with that of her grandmother, Baozhai. A feared and revered Villain Hitter, or witchy curse-monger, Baozhai's legacy stretches from 1920s China to the Battle of Hong Kong in the 40s to New York City thereafter. Across the generational divide, one thing becomes achingly clear to them both: you can't outrun your ghosts.Villain Hitting for Vicious Little Nobodies is a daring, genre-bending meditation on life, death, and the murderous cost of living in between. It lays bare the societal and cultural expectations placed on Chinese women and the devastating price of enduring them. This chilling masterclass in fiction cements Lindsay Wong as one of the most provocative Canadian horror writers of our time. Lindsay Wong is the author of the critically acclaimed, award-winning, and bestselling memoir The Woo-Woo, which was a finalist for Canada Reads 2019. She has written a YA novel entitled My Summer of Love and Misfortune.

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Are We Going to Strike Iran? In‑depth foreign policy analysis featuring Steve Yates, senior fellow at the Heritage Foundation and former White House national security official, who breaks down the intensifying risk of U.S. military strikes against Iran. Yates outlines how the administration is negotiating over Iran’s nuclear program even as it positions F‑35s, F‑22s, and other assets for what he describes as a “high likelihood” of targeted military action within the next two weeks. He explains that any strike would be aimed at degrading Iran’s nuclear and ballistic missile capabilities—not launching a full‑scale war—while regional powers aligned under the Abraham Accords weigh their own interests in the potential collapse of the Iranian regime. The conversation then turns to the complex geopolitical landscape involving Iran, Venezuela, and Cuba, where Yates argues that the U.S. is using “smart power”—economic, political, and strategic pressure—to create conditions for gradual regime transformation without repeating the mistakes of Iraq. Clay and Buck press Yates on possible successors inside Iran, the role of the Iranian diaspora, and whether Gulf nations secretly prefer the current Ayatollah in power as a known, contained adversary. This leads into a moment of levity as they mock Rep. Alexandria Ocasio‑Cortez’s widely panned appearance at the Munich Security Conference, where she struggled to answer a basic question about China–Taiwan tensions. Yates jokes that even a quick AI search would have prepared her better. Dirty Dem Playbook The James Talarico–Stephen Colbert controversy, which Clay and Buck argue has massively backfired on Democrats. They trace how CBS refused to air the Talarico interview over potential FCC equal‑time violations involving Texas Senate candidate Jasmine Crockett, but the decision instead triggered a “Streisand Effect”, catapulting Talarico to viral fame. CNN’s election data analyst Harry Enten confirms that Google searches for Talarico skyrocketed nationally and especially in Texas—over 1,100%—dramatically shifting prediction markets toward him in the upcoming Democratic primary. Clay argues that the real political victim is Jasmine Crockett, likening the situation to the Democratic Party “rigging” the 2016 primary against Bernie Sanders. The Trans Trend Karol Markowicz, co‑host in the Clay & Buck Podcast Network, who joins to analyze two high‑profile transgender‑related family mass murders—one in British Columbia and one in Rhode Island. The hosts argue that political activism and online rhetoric have normalized delusional thinking while discouraging honest discussions about mental health. Markowicz highlights the sudden spike in youth identifying as transgender as a “social contagion,” noting huge differences in rates between states like New York and Florida. The segment also covers a groundbreaking legal development: NYU Langone halting gender-transition procedures for minors amid growing malpractice lawsuits, including a recent multimillion‑dollar jury award to a detransitioner. The show then pivots to cultural commentary, including Markowicz's evaluation of Taylor Swift’s cultural power, where she agrees that Swift is comparable in scale to global icons like the Beatles and Madonna. Clay and Buck debate Swift’s influence across generations and joke about Clay’s much‑discussed mustache. The hosts also highlight uplifting Olympic news as Team USA men’s hockey star Quinn Hughes goes viral for calling America “the greatest country in the world” after scoring a sudden‑death goal over Sweden—one of the few unapologetically patriotic moments they say mainstream media rarely promotes anymore. Pro-Trump Granny Clay and Buck spotlight a powerful moment from President Trump’s Black History Month event at the White House, where an impassioned grandmother, Floresia Cook, went viral for defending Trump’s record on crime and public safety. They note Trump’s warm statements about Jesse Jackson following his passing. The hosts wrap with an economic update: 30‑year mortgage rates have hit a four‑year low, edging just above 6%, which they say may begin to thaw the frozen housing market locked up by years of Biden‑era inflation. They end on a light note about a typo discovered in Buck’s bestselling book Manufacturing Delusion.
