#213 - A hurricane on New Year's Day, a shredded tent, and a sudden slide toward hypothermia at 1,600 meters—Belinda Coker's Canary Islands traverse didn't go to plan. That sharp turn, and her decision to bail out, reveals the heartbeat of this conversation: how true adventure balances awe with judgment, and how choosing safety can be the bravest move on the trail.We walk back to Belinda's roots in New Zealand, where tramping was part of school life, then through years of work and parenting that muted her spark. A pandemic mirror moment sent her back to dirt: sunrise hikes, then multi-day routes across Australia's red centre, where Indigenous stories and women's spaces shape how she moves through country. She takes us to Greenland's Arctic Circle Trail, tracing Inuit hunting paths from ice to sea, learning to read cairns, and soaking in a silence so complete it resets your nervous system.Threaded through every mile is a practical guide to hiking safety and self-reliance. Belinda breaks down wilderness first aid, recognizing the danger of core shivers, navigating when electronics fail, and why snakebite treatment differs between Australia and the U.S. She also shares a smart, sustainable way to fund long seasons on foot: house sitting. By caring for homes and pets, she and her partner remove lodging costs, cook real food, and settle into neighborhoods from Scotland to Spain. If tents aren't your thing, we explore hut-to-hut and inn-to-inn options across Europe and New Zealand's hut network, including Camino routes that keep packs light and spirits high.Come for the storm story; stay for the blueprint of a second act that blends grit, gratitude, and slow, immersive travel.

Lai reiterates 'status quo' at China-based Taiwanese event President Lai Ching-te is reiterating his commitment to "maintaining the status quo" in cross-strait relations. Speaking at a Lunar New Year event in Taichung attended by China-based Taiwanese businesspeople, Lai described "maintaining the status quo" as "key" to safeguarding national security and preserving cross-strait stability and peace in the Indo-Pacific. The annual event is organized by Straits Exchange Foundation and saw around 300 attendees. Compared with his speech at the same event last year, Lai this year did not mention the term Republic of China during his speech. He used the term multiple times last year and reiterated the position that the R-O-C and the People's Republic of China are not subordinate (從屬的) to each other. MOL releases forced labor prevention guide for businesses The Ministry of Labor has released a reference guide to help local businesses prevent forced labor and "reduce operational (工作的) risks" According to the ministry's Workforce Development Agency, the guide is intended to help businesses build "effective mechanisms" to prevent forced labor and embed (把…嵌入) "respect for human rights" in supply chain management. Agency head Lydia Huang, says there have been multiple cases showing that once forced labor conditions arise in a company or its supply chain, it can face consequences such as product detention, import bans or even the return of shipments. Huang also says the guide introduces the International Labour Organization's 11 forced labor indicators, including signs of forced labor such as debt bondage, restriction of movement, excessive overtime and retention of identity documents.

Welcome back to Colonize The Ocean, the short podcast exploring the technologies that will make manned underwater living a reality. I'm your host from Atlantis Sea Colony.Today, we're diving into scaled Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion, or OTEC—a renewable powerhouse that taps the vast temperature difference between warm tropical surface waters and the frigid depths below 800 meters or more. In closed-cycle systems, warm seawater evaporates a working fluid like ammonia to drive turbines for steady electricity, while cold deep water condenses it to loop endlessly. Scaled versions mean pushing beyond small pilots to commercial plants delivering megawatts—reliable, 24/7 baseload power without the intermittency of solar or wind.For underwater habitats, this is transformative. It delivers uninterrupted electricity right on site for life support, lighting, pumps, communications, and everything a sealed colony needs—no risky fuel deliveries or noisy diesel backups. Recent studies and developments highlight how OTEC's cold deep water enables seawater air conditioning, slashing energy demands for cooling in warm ocean environments. Open-cycle variants even produce fresh desalinated water as a byproduct—essential for drinking, sanitation, and hydroponic food growth in isolated habitats.Beyond basics, scaled OTEC brings nutrient-rich deep seawater to the surface through artificial upwelling, supercharging aquaculture. Imagine growing algae, shellfish, fish like salmon or prawns directly around or integrated with the habitat structure—boosting self-sufficiency and turning the platform into an artificial reef that enhances local marine life. Multi-use platforms could combine power generation with these extras, even serving as foundations for expanded seasteads or research outposts in international waters.We're seeing real momentum: pilots in Hawaii, Japan, and new floating designs in the Canary Islands are advancing, with commercial-scale modules targeted for deployment. Market projections show the OTEC sector growing rapidly through 2035, driven by island nations and tropical regions seeking clean, constant energy. In a warming world, the thermal gradient often strengthens, making OTEC more viable over time.Scaled OTEC isn't just energy—it's core infrastructure for ocean colonization: reliable power, fresh water, efficient cooling, and integrated food production, all drawn from the sea itself. This could light the path to permanent human presence beneath the waves.Thanks for listening—subscribe for weekly shorts on the future of ocean living. Until next time, keep dreaming deep.

Welcome to the Sailing and Cruising the East Coast of the United States Podcast! In this episode, hosts Bela Musits and Mike Wasserman chat with longtime sailor Chris Blankenship, a passionate mariner based in New Jersey. Chris is a perfect guest for anyone looking to find new, creative ways to expand their sailing experiences and build expertise.Chris shares his extensive personal history on the water. He details his progression through different boats, starting with the beginner-friendly Catalina 22, moving up to a Catalina 27, a 34-foot Gemini catamaran, and his current vessel, a PDQ32 catamaran. He talks about the joys and challenges of cruising in his local New Jersey bay, a spot often skipped by those transiting the ICW. He also recounts the recent two-week delivery trip from Brunswick, Georgia, to New Jersey on his new PDQ32, explaining why they chose to stay on the Intracoastal Waterway due to his wife's seasickness and concerns about the boat's new davits.The core of the conversation focuses on Chris's incredible experiences as a crew member on numerous long passages and boat deliveries. He explains that he secures these opportunities, which often involve working with professional captains, through an organization called OPO (Offshore Passage Opportunities). OPO helps vet both the captains and the crew, which is vital for safety and matching skills. Chris gives a firsthand account of a major international delivery: flying to France to join a new catamaran and undertaking a multi-stage journey that included a 19-day Transatlantic crossing via the Canary Islands.This episode is a must-listen for aspiring blue water sailors. Chris's story proves that you don't need to own your own large yacht to gain valuable offshore sailing experience. He offers practical advice and highlights the supportive nature of the sailing community.Keywords for Search: Sailing, Cruising, East Coast, New Jersey, Offshore Sailing, Boat Delivery, OPO, Offshore Passage Opportunities, Catalina 22, Catamaran, PDQ32, ICW, Intracoastal Waterway, Transatlantic, Crewing, Long Passages.If you enjoyed this episode, please hit the like button and subscribe!Email: sailingtheeast@gmail.com Happy Sailing!Bela and Mike

Episode Title: "From Carnage to Cleavage" - Planet of Fire Review PLANET OF FIRE (February-March 1984) Writer: Peter Grimwade (his final Doctor Who work) Director: Fiona Cumming (her last story, dating back to The Highlanders) Location: Lanzarote, Canary Islands - chosen after Cumming promoted it with holiday photos! THE SHOPPING LIST EPISODE: Peter Grimwade faces an enormous writing burden with his final Doctor Who script - a literal checklist: Introduce Perry, reintroduce Kamelion (and write him out), fill in Turlough's background, bring back the Master and kill him off, and oh yes, set it all in Lanzarote because we want a holiday! PERI: The accent is terrible, the acting is broad, the costumes are... strategic. But she's a complete 180 from Tegan, which makes her "a refreshing change" in Jim's words. Also: Why does Fiona Cumming, a female director, go along with the obvious cheesecake shots? THE QUESTION: Why was Turlough sent to Earth instead of being on the ship with the others? THE DEATH: The Doctor hesitates as the Master burns in the flames. Both hosts question whether he could've saved him (echoing the Davros dilemma from Resurrection). KAMELION'S END: The prop finally works by having Kamelion transform into Howard (Perry's stepfather) and then the Master. Jim asks the obvious: "Why didn't they just do that all along?" THE PSYCHOLOGICAL WOUND THEORY: Jim theorizes that while previous Doctors showed physical deterioration before regeneration, Davison is being psychologically and mentally wounded - all the ethical dilemmas (Davros, the Master, Kameleon) are wearing him down, setting up the regeneration. LOCATION WORK: Both hosts praise the Lanzarote filming and volcanic landscapes doubling for Sarn. Jim wanted more of the shipwreck dive sequences. The café scene where the Doctor leaves alien money behind stands out as atypical behavior. THE SOPHIE ALDRED ACE PODCAST UPDATE: John reports the interviews barely discuss Doctor Who - Sylvester McCoy talks about pissing off Richard Burton and friendship with Ian McKellen; Katy Manning discusses life philosophy ("Every day is a blessing"). The hosts approve: "We've heard all the Doctor Who stuff for years!" NEXT TIME: The Caves of Androzani - "Once daily Androzani! Major and minor!" The end of Peter Davison, the introduction of Colin Baker, and the return of Robert Holmes! Subscribe on all platforms. Email thedoctorsbeardpodcast@gmail.com.

Send us a textIn this episode, I chat with author and Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Mirta Ojito about her novel Deeper Than The Ocean. This book is one of my top reads of 2026!A century-old shipwreck with no survivors. A journalist haunted by dreams. A family secret whispered across oceans. Mirta Ojito shares the real history behind Deeper Than the Ocean and the intimate choices that make a sweeping story feel startlingly close.Ojito takes us from Spain to La Palma in the Canary Islands, to Cuba, and to Florida, tracing the hidden currents that shaped migration from 1919 to today. She opens the archive on the Valbanera, the “poor man's Titanic,” and shares how one chance encounter with a Spanish-language book in Key West became the seed for a dual-timeline novel. We explore Spain's post–World War I turmoil, the Spanish flu's shadow, and why economic windfalls can deepen inequality when systems fail. Along the way, silk traditions, natural dyes, and island geography anchor the narrative in physical detail that lets history breathe.We also talk about craft and conscience. As a newsroom standards leader and Pulitzer-winning reporter, Ojito explains how trust is built word by word, why details matter, and how to tell the truth without exploiting suffering. Her fiction draws on lived experience—from the Mariel boatlift to the tenderness and terror of motherhood—and on the unsettling idea that trauma can cross generations. The result is a story about courage, belonging, and the complicated love we carry for places we cannot return to, and places that no longer exist.If you're drawn to literary fiction rooted in real events, migration history, and ethical storytelling, this conversation will stay with you. Listen, then share your answer: what does home mean when it spans more than one shore?

In episode 376 of The Physical Performance Show, professional triathlete Ellie Salthouse joins Hugh Darnell and Brad Beer for a deeply honest conversation about resilience, pressure, and longevity in elite endurance sport. Recorded following knee surgery and a strong return to racing, this episode unpacks what it truly takes to rebuild confidence, performance, and belief when the path back to the start line is anything but straightforward. Ellie reflects on her Wollongong T100 performance, the physical and mental demands of injury rehabilitation, and the systems that now support her consistency at the pointy end of the sport. From working with specialist coaches and reshaping her mental game, to mastering race-day execution, fueling, recovery, and decision-making under pressure, Ellie shares the frameworks that continue to sustain her elite career.

Go to www.therehabmechanics.com.au Enter discount code TPPS20 at checkout.

A thought is just a thought." "If it's a chore or doesn't integrate into your life, it's probably not the right 1%er." "Who's willing to suffer the most — that's the name of the game."

"If Jeffrey was the enigma, she was the translator."On the morning of 5 November 1991, a body was found floating in the Atlantic near the Canary Islands. It was Robert Maxwell, one of Britain's most famous and controversial businessman. Hours earlier he had vanished from his yacht, the Lady Ghislaine, anchored off the Spanish coast. His death immediately became front-page news in the UK and across Europe, especially when it came to light that Maxwell's businesses had engaged in massive frauds.For Maxwell's youngest daughter, Ghislaine, the loss was more than financial. With her father dead and his business empire collapsing around her, she tried to escape the scandal and rebuild somewhere where she would not be defined by her family's collapse. So in early 1992, she moved to New York City...Part 2/7Research & writing by Amelia White and Ira RaiHosting, production, and additional research & writing by Micheal WhelanLearn more about this podcast at http://unresolved.meIf you would like to support this podcast, consider heading to https://www.patreon.com/unresolvedpod to become a Patron or ProducerBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/unresolved--3266604/support.
In this episode of the Progression Project Podcast, Erik Antonson sits down with Lucas Schuler (@foilonly) to tell an inspiring, real-life leap-of-faith story rooted in foiling, family, and purpose. Lucas shares how he walked away from a successful social media company in Germany, moved with his wife and two young kids to the Canary Islands without a clear plan, and ultimately built a new life centered around foiling—now working with Foil Drive, coaching, and chasing big downwind adventures. From 50-kilometer crossings and island life to deeper reflections on flow states, risk, skill acquisition, and trusting your intuition, this conversation goes far beyond gear talk. It's a powerful reminder of what can happen when you fully commit to what you love—and let the process shape who you become. Hit up Lukas on instagram if you'd like to experience the Canary Islands or are looking for foil drive, wing, parawing or downwind coaching.

Where does localism end and insanity begin? Particularly in the Canary Islands, where a crazed, scooter-riding, rock-wielding man just went full Joe Namath on a visiting surfer. Buck and Mikey break this down along with an exclusive Kolohe Andino interview, Nate Florence's Austrian torture chamber, Mikey Feb's broken board theory, the world's best artificial wave and some exciting news from Hawaii.
Galway man Daragh MacLoughlin will be attempting to row across the Atlantic as part of the World's Toughest Row race. He'll be setting out on his 4,800 km journey on December 12th, but joins Seán from his starting point in the Canary Islands ahead of his epic voyage…
On today's fun-packed Mailbag show, David and Joe read messages about a film and television scenery painter, thanks from a retiring builder, a few more quips, observations on Joe visiting Princess Diana's memorial flowers, some Italian translations, Canary Islands life and having parents with the same name. Plus, an offer from Cameo (the personalised video service, not the 80's band) and David tries to get ChatGPT to write a funny story - spoiler alert, it doesn't do very well.

Welcome back to Lez Hang Out, the podcast that is moving on up! This week, co-hosts Leigh (@lshfoster) and Ellie (@elliebrigida) hang out with Marita Prodger (@maritaprodger) who you may recognize as one of the stars of Season 2 of Netflix's The Ultimatum: Queer Love. This episode is full of feels (three Pisces in one podcast makes for quite the fluid conversation), lesbian math, and musical manifestation. Quick disclaimer that we recorded this prior to the announcement that The Ultimatum: Queer Love has been cancelled, so please keep that in mind while listening. Marita began her Ultimatum journey when she was just 24 years old, and now at 27 she credits her experiences on the show with helping her to grow, create an incredible community, and rediscover her self-worth. Although she did not come away from the show with “her person”, she walked away with a renewed sense of self-love and the understanding that she didn't need to beg someone to love her. The right person would just do it naturally. Ending up with Britney as a trial marriage partner may not have been what either of them planned for, but it turned out to be the best thing for Marita to see her own energy reflected back like a mirror. It's easy to end up in a relationship that feels comfortable enough to stay, but still isn't quite right for you. We may see going on the Ultimatum as a really drastic measure for fixing a relationship, but sometimes it takes blowing everything up to see what remains. Seeing how simple it was for Britney to show up and consider her in the small day-to-day moments was a huge eye-opener and helped to break Marita out of a cycle that without the show, she may still have been trapped in today. You can find Marita on all the socials at @maritaprodger. Follow for information on how you can join her in the Canary Islands in January and for the chance to hear new music as she releases it.

Audiovisual ➡️ fanlink.tv/Y0UTUBE Tracklisting ➡️ https://bit.ly/tracklist_ronmiel Aitor Robles brings the warmth of the Canary Islands straight into this special episode with 'Ron Miel' — a mix named after Tenerife's beloved honey-rum. Smooth, sweet, and full of golden depth, Ron Miel captures the spirit of his homeland, and Aitor's set mirrors that essence beautifully: comforting yet powerful, rooted in tradition yet ready to ignite the senses. With more than 25 years behind the decks, Aitor is far more than a DJ — he's a true sonic storyteller. What began on Tenerife's volcanic shores has grown into a global journey through Ibiza, London, Mauritius, the Maldives, Oman, Switzerland and beyond. His sound blends melodic electronic flow with organic rhythms and subtle ethnic influences, creating immersive landscapes shaped by emotion rather than geography. His signature style has resonated worldwide, earning him over 2 million SoundCloud streams and collaborations with iconic brands like Café del Mar, Buddha Bar, and Virgin. Whether performing as a longtime resident at Le Club Playa Fañabé, energizing nights at Papagayo Club, or setting the tone at luxury resorts and beach clubs, Aitor's sets are experiences you feel. This mix is no exception: a rich, honeyed journey through melody, movement, and memory — as irresistible and soulful as a chilled glass of Ron Miel itself. Cheers!

Episode Summary In our newest episode, Bioluminescent Symbiosis, we speak with Dr. Margaret McFall-Ngai, an animal physiologist and biochemist about her work with the Hawaiian bobtail squid (Euprymna scolopes) and its partner, the luminous bacterium Vibrio fischeri. McFall-Ngai provides a great synopsis of how this stable beneficial relationship not only creates light, and supports the bobtail maturation, but can also help us understand what could be going on in the light organs of deep-sea animals. Check out our lovely new website where you can find more detailed notes, images and links to the wider reading. In this episode… Welcome back to the Deep-Sea Podcast, your punk take on all things deep sea! The Professor is jetsetting as always, back in Edinburgh after a stint getting all the equipment ready in the Canary Island and is now happily being confused with professional racecar drivers. He will be back in Perth shortly to celebrate the Deep-Sea center paper publishing streak and reconnect with his Capybara spirit animal. Thom is being called out in New Zealand Parliament, for all the right reasons, and he spent some Deep-Sea conference time in China, avoiding typhoons and pondering science ideas. We are also celebrating 300,000 podcast downloads of the podcast, and appreciate our fans immensely! Our guest this month is Dr. Margaret McFall-Ngai, an animal physiologist and biochemist who is a staff researcher at Carnegie Institution for Science's Division of Biosphere Sciences and Engineering, with her lab stationed at the California Institute of Technology in Biology and Biological Engineering. Dr. McFal-Ngai talks us through her work on the stable beneficial relationship between the Hawaiian bobtail squid (Euprymna scolopes) and its partner, the luminous bacterium Vibrio fischeri. Although technically not a deep-sea species, this relationship and its details might help us understand how deep-sea life creates bioluminescence and the possible life cycle impacts for the creatures involved.

Uncovering the deep connection between Buddhism and Martial Arts, Damiano Seiryū Finizio joins Vincent Moore to explore what it truly means to face our most powerful opponent: the mind.This conversation was originally recorded on Paths of Practice Podcast. Listen to more episodes HERE.Today's podcast is brought to you by BetterHelp. Give online therapy a try at betterhelp.com/beherenow and get on your way to being your best self.This time on the BHNN Guest Podcast, Damiano and Vincent discuss:What initially brought Damiano to Buddhism after growing up in Italy, a predominantly Catholic countryHow Buddhism can be harmonious with martial arts Working on self-development and mutual growth rather than sparring Maintaining perfect mental presence during times of physical discomfort Following the Buddhist precepts and adopting a vegan diet for the principal of no-harmMountains as natural energy centersDamiano's global work and exposure to unique cultures in Vietnam, Cambodia, The Canary Islands, and moreBringing the message of peace, awareness, and compassion into the westDamiano's advice for beginners walking the Buddhist pathAbout Damiano Seiryū Finizio:Damiano Finizio was born in Italy in 1992. He began practicing traditional Japanese martial arts in 2012, where he met the Buddhist monk Seiun, who transformed his curiosity for Eastern disciplines and philosophies into dedicated practice. In 2014, he officially took refuge in the Dharma at Tenryuzanji Temple, receiving the name Seiryu, symbolizing his deep bond with his teacher and the temple. Since 2020, he has been living and working in Spain as a hostel owner, while also working seasonally in Italy and Croatia as a trip leader during the warmer months. Despite his commitments, he remains an active member of the Tenryuzanji community and continues to participate in its activities whenever possible.For more information about Tenryuzanji Temple, please click HERE. To keep up with Damiano, visit his Instagram.“The advice is don't do it yourself. It's very likely to happen that you're trying to tame your mind, but if you don't know how to do it, most likely your mind will tame you and make you feel like you're moving forward, but you're just looking for comfort. This is why a teacher is important.“ –Damiano Seiryū FinizioAbout Vincent Moore:Vincent Moore is a creative and creative consultant living in San Francisco, California, with over a decade of experience in the entertainment industry and holds a graduate degree in Buddhist Studies. For years, he performed regularly at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre, an improv and sketch comedy theatre based in New York and Los Angeles. As an actor, Vincent performed on Comedy Central, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, The Late Show with Seth Meyers, Above Average, and The UCB Show on Seeso. As a writer, he developed for television as well as stage, including work with the Blue Man Group, and his own written projects have been featured on websites such as Funny or Die. Additionally, he received a Masters of Buddhist Studies from the Institute of Buddhist Studies with a Certificate in Soto Zen Studies and engages in a personal Buddhist practice within the Soto Zen tradition. Vincent is also the creator and host of the podcast, Paths of Practice, which features interviews with Buddhists from all over the world.

In this episode, we speak with Dr. Mar Fernández-Méndez, founder of MacroCarbon and professor at the University of Bremen, about her journey from Arctic ice researcher to seaweed entrepreneur. Dr. Fernández shares how she's turning pelagic sargassum into sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) while creating a carbon-negative process that enhances marine biodiversity.Dr. Fernández discusses:How Sargassum differs from other algae approaches, avoiding the pitfalls that have plagued microalgae biofuel attempts for decades.MacroCarbon's integrated biorefinery that produces multiple revenue streams: bio-stimulants for agriculture, biochar for permanent carbon sequestration, carbon black for tyres and batteries, and ultimately SAF through Fischer-Tropsch synthesis.The company's unique approach to hydrogen production, generating its own hydrogen internally rather than requiring external green hydrogen inputs.Competitive economics at scale: producing SAF for lower than current market biofuel prices, while being species-agnostic and able to use any brown or green seaweed.Securing partnerships with Iberia, Airbus, and Repsol through Spain's All 4 Zero Challenge, with plans to produce test samples for certification and eventual off-take agreements.The roadmap from pilot to first-of-a-kind commercial facility in the Canary Islands, then expansion to Morocco, Azores, Cape Verde, and the Caribbean.Balancing academia and entrepreneurship: maintaining her professorship while commercialising proven technology, and the parallels between academic grant-writing and startup fundraising.The importance of storytelling in deep tech, moving beyond just having good data to communicating vision effectively for investors.The "BlueSaf Plus" vision for 2035: carbon-negative biofuels that enhance marine biodiversity by maintaining floating ecosystems, proving we can have both healthy oceans and sustainable aviation.Learn more about the innovators who are navigating the industry's challenges to make sustainable aviation a reality, in our new book 'Sustainability in the Air: Volume 2'.

How is the Spanish sparkling wine Cava different from the Italian bubbly Prosecco? What makes Xarel·lo stand out from Spain's other traditional Cava grapes? How did Alicante's Monastrell grape give rise to the rare Fondillón wine, and what makes it different from Port or Sherry? In this episode of the Unreserved Wine Talk podcast, I'm chatting with Sarah Jane Evans, author of the terrific new book The Wines of Central and Southern Spain: From Catalunya to Cadiz. You can find the wines we discussed at https://www.nataliemaclean.com/winepicks. Giveaway Two of you are going to win a copy of Sarah Jane Evans' wonderful new book, The Wines of Central and Southern Spain: From Catalunya to Cadiz. To qualify, all you have to do is email me at natalie@nataliemaclean.com and let me know that you've posted a review of the podcast. I'll choose two people randomly from those who contact me. Good luck! Highlights What do you need to know about Xarel·lo and Spanish sparkling wine? How does Cava compare to Prosecco? What effect does the aging process used for premium Cavas have on their taste profile, and how does it compare to Champagne? What is the historical significance of the Terra Alta region? Which historical artifacts has Sarah Jane encountered while visiting Spanish vineyards? How does Richard Ford's 1840s observation about Valencia still define Spanish wine culture in the Valencia region? What might surprise you about the ancient amphorae in Valencia and how they're used in modern winemaking? How do the three main styles of Sherry differ? Which types of glassware and food pair best with Sherry? What are copitas, and how do they differ from other glasses used for Sherry? How does serving temperature affect our enjoyment of Sherry? What do you need to know about wine and the Canary Islands? What challenges and opportunities does Sarah Jane see for the future of the Spanish wine industry? Key Takeaways How is the Spanish sparkling wine Cava different from the Italian bubbly Prosecco? Prosecco bubbles are created and captured in the tank to make it a pleasantly fizzy drink. Whereas Cava is made exactly like Champagne. It's aged in the bottle with its yeast. It begins to develop other aromas which are nothing to do with flowers or fruits. The youngest Cava, can be released at nine months, younger than the youngest Champagne. If you're going to have a very young fizzy wine, then Prosecco is very appealing. What makes Xarel·lo stand out from Spain's other traditional Cava grapes? People have started to recognise that this white grape variety, once just a component in blending, can be grown on its own and produces lovely, fresh, excitingly lively wines that are not very high in alcohol. If you're making Cava, it's the one that will last. It has a capacity to age, which is better than the other two. How did Alicante's Monastrell grape give rise to the rare Fondillón wine, and what makes it different from Port or Sherry? Alicante is one of the places for Monastrell. Historically, they used to make a wine out of this red grape that got so ripe they didn't need to fortify it because the grape on the vine got so sweet that it turned itself into alcohol. Then it was a wine that was stable enough you could have it in a barrel. Then you could send it to India or to Africa, all around the world.

I came into this conversation thinking that I'd be chatting about the trivialities of an expedition through South America and I left in a state of absolute disbelief and awe. Oliver Treviso is a fascinating and incredible individual who has become the first person ever to hike the length of the Andes through Argentina, Chile, Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia and Venezuela. In this first episode, we discuss how this adventure came to be...his experience sailing in a catamaran across the Atlantic from the Canary Islands to Brazil, and by all accounts the boat was hardly seaworthy. Then, a love for South America was kindled and before long, he was back on the continent and hiked for 21 months, for 8000 miles and wearing out nine pairs of shoes. The journey was not without its hazards and dangers, but he made it. We'll record a second episode with Oliver to hear more about his time in Colombia and Venezuela, but for the time being, tune in to an amazing story of human kindness and spirit. Oliver is raising money for, Mind Ystradgynlais, a mental health charity and you can donate here: https://minditv.org.uk/walking-the-andes/ The Colombia Briefing is reported by Emily Hart: https://harte.substack.com Support us: https://patreon.com/colombiacalling
