In the first part of this two part story about the Chateau De Amerois we learnt about the known history of this place and the deeply traumatic space it is surrounded by. A forest filled with the trauma of war and patriarchy.Now, Anne will be taking us into an even darker side - the stories of it's ghosts and the trembling wails of those that crossed the path of this building.On the surface it's known as a royal retreat, once connected to the Belgian monarchy and carefully kept out of public reach. But locals will tell you the woods around Amerois have always carried a certain heaviness — the kind of place where sound seems to vanish between the trees and the air feels older than the castle itself.Visitors have reported strange lights moving through empty rooms long after midnight. Staff have spoken quietly about footsteps on upper floors when no one else was there… doors opening on their own… and the uneasy sense that certain parts of the château simply don't want to be entered.But the most unsettling stories aren't about shadows in corridors.They're about a presence tied to the history of the estate itself — something that may have followed the royal family there… and never quite left.Tonight we're heading into the forests of southern Belgium, to a castle where privilege, secrecy… and something far older than either may still linger behind locked doors.WE NOW HAVE A SKOOL PAGE - https://www.skool.com/frightfully-good-paranormal-6267A community for curious minds exploring the paranormal with open minds, critical thinking, and healthy skepticism.
In this milestone 150th episode of the No One Fights Alone (NOFA) Podcast, Austin, Kevin, and Brad come together for a reflective and honest conversation about the journey of building a platform dedicated to first responder and veteran mental health.What started as a mission to normalize conversations around trauma, addiction recovery, resilience, and peer support has grown into a powerful community of listeners who understand the weight carried by those in law enforcement, fire service, EMS, military service, corrections, and other high-responsibility professions.This episode is less interview and more real conversation — a chance for Austin, Kevin, and Brad to pause, reflect, and express gratitude for the opportunity to bring meaningful dialogue to the first responder and veteran community. They discuss the joy of offering authentic conversations, the responsibility that comes with speaking into sensitive topics like PTSD and suicide prevention, and what it means to stay grounded in purpose as the show continues to grow.The conversation then shifts into a deeper discussion on integrity — living a life aligned with personal values and avoiding the quiet betrayal that can happen when someone drifts from who they truly are. The hosts explore how careers in high-stress environments can sometimes pull individuals away from their core identity, and why self-awareness, accountability, and connection are critical to long-term mental health.Austin brings insight rooted in recovery and personal growth. Brad shares perspective shaped by a career in law enforcement and leadership. Kevin adds reflections from his work in the behavioral health and trauma treatment space. Together, the three offer wisdom from different vantage points but with a shared mission: helping people live strong, connected, and value-driven lives.Topics discussed include:• First responder and veteran mental health • Trauma, resilience, and long-term recovery • Leadership and integrity under pressure • Identity beyond the badge or uniform • Avoiding value drift and personal burnout • Gratitude, growth, and sustaining purpose • Brotherhood and peer supportThis episode serves as both a celebration and a recommitment — a reminder that meaningful conversations can change lives, and that living with integrity matters just as much off the job as it does on it.Whether you've been with NOFA from the beginning or are just joining the community, this 150th episode reflects the heart behind the mission: honest dialogue, real stories, and the belief that no one has to navigate trauma, stress, or recovery alone.About the No One Fights Alone PodcastThe No One Fights Alone (NOFA) Podcast features real conversations about mental health, trauma recovery, addiction, resilience, leadership, and suicide prevention within first responder, military, and high-pressure professional communities.

In this episode of the No One Fights Alone (NOFA) Podcast, Brad sits down with Dr. Smith for a thoughtful and practical conversation about the psychological realities of working in public safety.Dr. Smith specializes in police and public safety psychology and has worked extensively with patrol officers, detention and corrections professionals, dispatchers, EMS personnel, full-time and volunteer fire departments, wildland firefighters, and agencies at the city, county, state, and federal levels. Her experience spans the full spectrum of first responder culture, giving her a comprehensive understanding of the operational stress and cumulative trauma that shape these professions.Brad and Dr. Smith bridge both clinical insight and real-world perspective in a conversation designed to be accessible to mental health professionals and first responders alike. They explore the difficult journey that often accompanies a career in law enforcement and emergency services — including identity shifts, hypervigilance, exposure to trauma, burnout, and the long-term impact of chronic stress.What makes this discussion especially unique is Dr. Smith's personal connection to the first responder world. In addition to her clinical expertise, she is also the spouse of a law enforcement officer. That dual perspective allows her to speak with credibility from both sides of the aisle — as a mental health professional who treats first responders and as someone who lives within the culture at home.Topics discussed include:• Police and public safety psychology • Cumulative trauma and operational stress • Burnout in law enforcement and emergency services • Hypervigilance and identity in first responders • The role of spouses and family systems • Barriers to seeking mental health support • Practical approaches to resilience and sustainable careersBrad and Dr. Smith emphasize the importance of normalizing therapy within first responder communities and creating systems that support emotional health as much as tactical performance. They also discuss how cultural expectations around strength and stoicism can delay help-seeking — and what leaders can do to change that narrative.Whether you serve in law enforcement, fire service, EMS, dispatch, corrections, or support someone who does, this episode offers valuable perspective on how to navigate the profession without losing yourself in the process.About the No One Fights Alone PodcastThe No One Fights Alone (NOFA) Podcast features honest conversations about mental health, trauma recovery, addiction, resilience, and leadership within first responder, military, and high-pressure professional communities.

Dans cet épisode de Diagonalistes, Michel Chateau, Diagonaliste breton, revient sur un parcours au long cours marqué par près de vingt Diagonales réalisées sur plusieurs décennies. Il raconte sa première Diagonale, Brest–Menton, vécue comme une aventure fondatrice : la découverte de l'effort continu, des nuits courtes, de la solidarité entre cyclistes et de la satisfaction d'aller au bout, parfois juste avant la barrière horaire.Michel explique ce qui l'a fait revenir année après année sur les routes des Diagonales : l'esprit de famille, les retrouvailles entre Diagonalistes, la simplicité des échanges et cette sensation de liberté unique. Il évoque aussi ses Diagonales réalisées en solitaire, un choix qui lui a permis de gérer pleinement son rythme, ses arrêts et son organisation, sans contrainte extérieure.Avec beaucoup de recul, il partage sa manière d'aborder l'effort : rouler calmement, rester patient dans les moments difficiles, ne jamais paniquer et continuer d'avancer, même lentement. Il parle enfin de son engagement comme sariste, heureux d'accompagner à son tour d'autres Diagonalistes, convaincu que la transmission et l'entraide font partie intégrante de l'aventure.
In this episode of the No One Fights Alone (NOFA) Podcast, Brad sits down with therapist and national presenter Cinnamon Reiheld for an in-depth conversation about trauma, childhood experiences, and the unique mental health challenges facing first responders.Cinnamon brings extensive clinical experience working directly with law enforcement officers, firefighters, veterans, and other public safety professionals. Throughout the episode, she shares insight into how unresolved childhood trauma, attachment patterns, and early life experiences shape the way first responders show up on the job — and at home.Brad guides a thoughtful discussion on how the coping strategies that help someone survive childhood or thrive in high-risk professions can later create emotional distance, hyper-independence, anger, or burnout. Cinnamon explains how trauma is not only about major critical incidents, but also about subtle relational dynamics that influence identity, resilience, and vulnerability over time.The conversation explores how early conditioning around strength, self-reliance, and emotional suppression often becomes amplified within first responder culture. Cinnamon offers practical perspective on why so many high-performing professionals struggle with connection, why shame keeps people silent, and how therapy can create space for healthier communication, emotional regulation, and long-term healing.Brad and Cinnamon also discuss:• Childhood trauma and its long-term impact • Attachment styles in first responders • Emotional regulation under chronic stress • Hypervigilance and identity formation • The intersection of early life conditioning and public safety culture • Trauma-informed therapy approaches • Breaking stigma around mental health treatmentCinnamon shares what she has learned as a national presenter teaching on trauma and first responder wellness, and why understanding your own story is one of the most powerful steps toward sustainable resilience.This episode offers both education and practical insight — whether you serve in law enforcement, fire service, EMS, military, corrections, or support someone who does. Understanding how childhood experiences influence adult relationships and leadership can be the key to breaking patterns and building healthier futures.About the No One Fights Alone PodcastThe No One Fights Alone (NOFA) Podcast features honest conversations about mental health, trauma recovery, addiction, and resilience within first responder, military, and high-pressure professional communities.

We return to the Escher drawing that is the Chateau d'Amour Inconnu, situated on an island that continues to baffle us with its weird geography. Yes, the twins have arrived at their new royal workplace, where their employers are charming but they are expected to sleep in a filthy garret. While Jessica skives off from her duties - looking after children who reinforce our belief that no one involved in the Pascalverse has ever met an actual child – Liz spots a mysterious stranger thrusting his sword outside a cottage (get your minds out of the gutter, people).

Behind locked gates in the Ardennes forest sits a château most people have never heard of — and that's exactly how some would prefer it. Château d'Amérois isn't splashed across tourist brochures or wedding websites. It doesn't trade on Instagram sunsets or glossy heritage grants. It sits quietly in Belgium, wrapped in trees and whispers, with a history that feels… curated. And whenever history feels curated, I start asking questions.On paper, it's aristocracy. Royal connections. Nobility. Perfect stonework and manicured grounds. But scratch just a little deeper and the story shifts tone. Rumours of secretive gatherings. Claims of ritual activity. Stories that refuse to sit neatly in the “just a beautiful old castle” category. Now — are all of those claims documented fact? No. And we'll separate what is provable from what is pure speculation, because that's how we do things here. But the sheer persistence of the allegations surrounding this place is enough to make even the most hardened sceptic lean forward.Tonight, we're stepping inside Château d'Amérois — not as gossip hunters, not as conspiracy chasers, but as investigators of narrative. What is known. What is alleged. And why certain buildings seem to attract stories that cling like damp to stone walls. Because sometimes a haunting isn't about a ghost in the corridor… sometimes it's about power, secrecy, and the uncomfortable feeling that something happened behind those doors that never quite made it into the official record. Stay with us. This one is layered.But a warning - if you feel that listening to a darker tale that may involve talk about abuse is too much for you, please look after yourself and consider if this episode is for you.We have also had to split this story into two parts - this episode delves into the history of the site.Our next episode expands on the mythology and what has been said to occur behind closed doors and away from the eyes of the world.When people throw mud - some of it will always stick.WE NOW HAVE A SKOOL PAGE - https://www.skool.com/frightfully-good-paranormal-6267A community for curious minds exploring the paranormal with open minds, critical thinking, and healthy skepticism.
In this episode of the No One Fights Alone (NOFA) Podcast, Brad and Maren take a deeper look at an often overlooked part of first responder and veteran life — the family at home.While public safety professionals are trained to run toward danger and provide physical protection, the emotional impact of that responsibility doesn't stay on shift. Brad and Maren explore how trauma exposure, hypervigilance, and operational stress influence relationships with spouses and children, often in ways families struggle to understand or talk about.They discuss what it can feel like for children growing up in a home shaped by unpredictable schedules, emotional shutdown, or heightened alertness. Many families learn to adapt silently, reading moods instead of having conversations, and those survival patterns frequently carry into adulthood.Brad and Maren talk about conflict — not as something to avoid, but as something families must learn to navigate in a healthy way. Avoidance, resentment, anger, and emotional withdrawal are discussed as common coping strategies that unintentionally create distance inside relationships. They emphasize that while first responders provide physical safety, emotional safety inside the home is equally important.The conversation also explores how childhood experiences shape adult behavior, why children often take on responsibility beyond their age in high-stress households, and how shame prevents both parents and kids from asking for help. Therapy and honest dialogue are presented not as signs of weakness, but as tools for rebuilding connection and breaking generational cycles.Listeners will hear practical insight into how families can communicate more openly, repair misunderstandings, and support each other through the realities of high-pressure careers.Topics discussed include:• First responder family dynamics • Children of law enforcement and veterans • Hypervigilance at home and emotional withdrawal • Anger, resentment, and communication styles • Healthy conflict resolution in relationships • Breaking cycles of shame and isolation • Therapy and rebuilding emotional safetyWhether you serve in public safety, are married to someone who does, or grew up in that environment, this episode offers perspective on why these patterns exist — and how families can move toward understanding instead of distance.About the No One Fights Alone PodcastThe No One Fights Alone (NOFA) Podcast features honest conversations about mental health, trauma, recovery, and resilience within first responder, military, and high-stress professional communities.

Brad welcomes Kevin Thacker to the NOFA Podcast microphone for his first full conversation as co-host. In this episode, Kevin shares the path that led him into the behavioral health and recovery field, the experiences that shaped his passion for helping others, and why he has chosen to dedicate his work to supporting individuals navigating trauma, mental health challenges, and addiction recovery.The conversation explores Kevin's background working alongside treatment programs and first responder communities, and how those experiences influence the perspective he brings to the show. Together, Brad and Kevin talk about the importance of connection, the role of peer support, and the reality that many high-performing professionals — especially in public safety careers — often struggle silently while appearing outwardly strong.They also discuss how recovery is not a single event but an ongoing process that involves identity, purpose, relationships, and learning how to move forward after difficult experiences. Listeners will hear why honest conversations matter, why stigma keeps people isolated, and why simply knowing someone understands can change everything.This episode offers a chance to get to know Kevin and what he hopes to contribute to the podcast moving forward — practical insight, open dialogue, and conversations that meet people where they actually are rather than where they think they should be.Topics discussed include:• First responder mental health • Trauma and stress exposure in high-responsibility careers • Addiction recovery and rebuilding life after crisis • Peer support and connection • Breaking stigma around seeking help • Finding purpose after hardshipWhether you work in law enforcement, fire service, EMS, corrections, healthcare, military service, or any demanding profession, this conversation is a reminder that strength and struggle can exist at the same time — and that support is available.About the No One Fights Alone PodcastThe No One Fights Alone (NOFA) Podcast is dedicated to honest conversations surrounding mental health, trauma, recovery, and resilience — especially within first responder and high-stress professional communities.

In Mary DeForest Denny's 1921 diary, she wrote of a journey to France with a good friend, artist Clara Greenleaf Perry. It was a trip filled with experiences: dining, sight seeing, French language lessons, conversations with fellow artists, and most importantly, a visit to the Chateau of Lafayette--the "Hero of two worlds"-- America and France. In this episode you will get to hear some of Mary's entries (mostly to do with the time spent at the Chateau) and the important work being done there to care for children. Many of whom were orphaned during WW 1. We also tell you a bit about the Marquis de Lafayette and finally, an interview with Stephanie Dray, the best selling author of a novel entitled "The Women of Chateau Lafayette". Interestingly, this historical fiction novel mentions several of the women our diary's author was friends with and visited while she and Clara were on this trip--a first for Sally in her years of research!

Bienvenue, listeners! Yes, we're living through the longest, grimmest winter ever, but Jessica and Elizabeth are heading to the south of France again (or as the ghostwriter would have us believe, the first time. René who?) to spend the summer (what summer? Who cares!) as au pairs. To our great delight, Todd basically tells Liz he can't trust her and sets her free for the summer. You'd think she'd be delighted given her previous antics but she spends the entire journey to the Chateau d'Amour Inconnu crying and sulking. Unlike Jessica, who strikes up an instant rapport with a hot young Frenchman and his roguish father. Jessica's fallen in love - but can Jacques and Louis be trusted? All we know is they're both too good for the Wakefields. And as they head south, meanwhile, down at the Chateau, a young prince confronts his destiny - and has a prophetic dream...

I have to say that I can pick ém. My love of Bordeaux and the volume of Bordeaux I have tasted has lead me to Chateau Haut Bailly. Under the tootlidge of Veronique Sanders-Van Beek, the winery continues to make great strides not only in quality, but developing the experience of wine. You see, wine it not just a beverage, it has a soul, a connection, an expression of its place and of it's time. I have been fortunate enough to consider Veronique a friend and I look for opportunities to tell the story of the Chateau. Here I speak with Cyprien Chamanhet, Marketing Director of the Chateau. I have to tell you, having Cyprien Champanhet from Chateau Haut-Bailly in the studio was a real treat and just the sort of conversation that reminds me why I love hosting Wine Talks. We sat down in Southern California on a January day, and from the get-go, Cyprien brought an honest and unpretentious energy to the discussion—he cuts straight to the point. "Do you like the wine?" he asked, and it was refreshing to hear someone in the trade boil things down to pleasure and emotion, not just technical complexity. Even with fine wines, the fundamental goal is enjoyment. That's a sentiment I think too often gets lost in the shuffle in our industry, which can sometimes take itself a bit too seriously. We quickly dove into the DNA of Chateau Haut-Bailly. Cyprien is both Sales Director and Marketing Communications Director, but more than wearing official hats, he embodies what makes the estate special—the constant drive to improve, to question, and to never stand still. It's not that they have some rigid, well-documented strategy; it's woven into their identity. Every decision they make at the château pivots on the question: will this improve the wine, the hospitality, or the relationships with their partners? That's where the magic really happens, not just in boardrooms, but passing in the vineyards, talking among the team, and always with the Wilmers family, their deeply involved owners. Speaking of the Wilmers, Cyprien talked about Chris Wilmers, their chairman, and professor of ecology at UC Santa Cruz. Now, there's a boardroom influence that definitely filters down into the vines—and you see it in their approach to sustainability. It's much more than lip service. The château doesn't use weed killers or insect killers, maintains century-old vines, and considers not just organic or biodynamic approaches, but a kind of "third way" that balances environmental impact, carbon footprint, and even workers' and neighbors' health. I love seeing how that academic, ecological mindset brings practical, tangible benefits to the vineyard. It's a beautiful fusion of tradition and progress. We did some deep thinking around terroir—that mysterious, oft-referenced concept that supposedly starts and ends in soil. But as I prodded Cyprien, he agreed terroir extends into philosophy, history, and—yes—the boardroom. The energy and ethos of a place, its leadership, and the team all seep into the bottle. That's why I've never bought the idea of "bad vintages" at places like Haut-Bailly. As long as what's in the bottle is an honest expression of what nature and experience handed you that year, it brings emotion and memory—like a great piece of music with recurring themes and intriguing variations. One of my favorite moments came when Cyprien talked about how the industry tries to please the consumer—with supermarket formula wines versus character-driven bottles. He wasn't going to pander; at Haut-Bailly, the style is distinctive, loyal to its roots, and never sacrificed for fast trends. The real reward is in education and curiosity—getting people excited about differences in vintage, terroir, and story. And as we swapped stories about wine tourism, he lit up describing the new tasting room and the personal touch they offer visitors. Every guest becomes an ambassador, every experience becomes a memory, and suddenly, the conversation around the table at home is about what happened at the château, not just what's in the glass. I have to say, trading observations and anecdotes with Cyprien made me optimistic. We're in an industry built on pleasure, memory, and shared stories. And if you ask me, keeping it honest and humble—like Haut-Bailly does—will always be the real cutting edge.

Fresh off a flight from LA, Vogue's cover star, Amanda Seyfried is back in New York and on The Run Through to talk about award season!“I will say my favorite part … was being at the A24 party at the Chateau,” says Seyfried reflecting on the Golden Globes that happened Sunday evening. “I was just on the couch with a bunch of people that I like and don't ever see except at award shows.” Seyfried says she was surprised when a conversation in the Golden Globes ballroom with Jennifer Lawrence was picked up by cameras. “There are still moments when I forget that people are watching it,” says Seyfried. “It was a little bit unnerving when I saw that because I just believed, I guess, stupidly that it was a private conversation.” Seyfried was a two-time nominee at the ceremony for her roles in the Testament on Ann Lee and the television series Long Bright River. With award season in full swing, she's been working closely with her stylist Elizabeth Stewart to make sure she is red carpet ready. “We've been wearing a lot of Prada and we decided to wear a Versace [to the Golden Globes], which is always trusted and beautiful and classic as well. Away from Hollywood, Seyfried's wardrobe is much more casual as she cares for 52 animals on her farm upstate. “I'll wear the big tall muck boots,” says Seyfried. “The ones you can't drive a car in 'cause your foot can't reach the pedal.” Her animals include peacocks, chickens, goats, horses, donkeys and a new rescue rabbit named Bugsy that is a bit stand-offish. “He could be 37 years-old.” says Seyfried. “ I have absolutely no idea. He's got a droopy wet eye. But he's very nice it seems.” In The Testament of Ann Lee directed by Mona Fastvold, Seyfried plays the titular character who is credited with creating the Shaker religious community in the mid-18th century. “The Shakers worshiped through song and dance,” says Seyfried on the challenge of undertaking the role as their leader.“The singing had to be second nature.” says Seyfried on her performance. “But with singing, I've always been judging myself as I've been doing it. Even in Les Mis, I wasn't present the way I was. So I had to let go of that very early on. And the key to that was she's human and I need to feel it. It's not about how it sounds. It's about how it feels. And I need the audience to become a Shaker for two and a half hours.”While promoting the film, Seyfried's 8 year-old daughter Nina was introduced to one of her mother's earlier roles in the cult classic Mean Girls. “She said that she didn't think it was that funny,” recalls Seyfried. “but she really loved my role. That was Nina's critique of Mean Girls at age eight.”The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture.

Episode 580: A Vacation in Southern Brittany with Elyse takes you on a journey through one of France's most enchanting yet underrated regions. Host Annie Sargent and Elyse Rivin dive into the hidden treasures of Southern Brittany, sharing their firsthand experiences and insider tips. This episode is perfect for travelers who love history, coastal charm, and authentic French culture—without the crowds. Listen to this episode ad-free Annie and Elyse start by exploring the Château de Suscinio, a 1,000-year-old castle that was once the second home of the Dukes of Brittany. Recently restored, this fortress now offers interactive exhibits, medieval crossbow demonstrations, and even a moat filled with swans. Elyse shares fascinating stories about the castle's past, including how it was gifted to a royal mistress and later abandoned before being brought back to life. If you're traveling with kids (or just a kid at heart), you'll love the hands-on activities and the chance to step into a real-life fairy tale. Next, they head to Île d'Arz, a peaceful island in the Gulf of Morbihan. Known as the "Island of Captains," this tiny gem is packed with history, from prehistoric megaliths to a medieval church and a working tidal mill. Elyse describes the island's unique vibe, where women once ran the farms while their men sailed the seas. You can walk or bike around the entire island in a day, stopping at quiet beaches, local crêperies, and even a sailing school. Elyse's personal anecdotes—like trying sesame ice cream for the first time—make the island feel like a place you need to visit. The episode also covers practical tips for exploring Southern Brittany. Elyse recommends basing your trip in Vannes, a charming city with a lively market and easy access to the gulf's many islands. She and Annie discuss the best ways to get around, including boat tours and bike rentals, and why the region's strong tides make every visit to the coast a little different. For food lovers, Southern Brittany is a dream. Elyse raves about fresh oysters for just six euros a dozen and the local Breton spritz, a cider-based twist on the classic Aperol spritz. The region's seafood, crêpes, and artisanal treats are not to be missed. Whether you're planning a trip or just dreaming of one, this episode is your guide to the best of Southern Brittany. Annie and Elyse's conversational style makes you feel like you're right there with them, discovering hidden gems and soaking up the local culture.

A century of seasons has worn the appearance of the log cabin Roy Fure built in present-day Katmai National Park and Preserve in Alaska, but his care of the small cabin, and later National Park Service restoration efforts, have enabled it to stand the test of time. Dovetail-notched spruce logs still sit tightly together, the corrugated metal roof Fure replaced his sod roof with in 1930 and painted red could use a new coat of paint, but otherwise looks rainproof, and the windmill he erected to generate electricity still stands tall. Across the 85+ million-acre National Park System there are tens of thousands of historic structures — 19th-century homesteads, Civil War structures, Civil Rights facilities, presidential homes, artworks and more — but not all receive the same treatment as Fure's cabin. • At Oregon Caves National Monument and Preserve in Oregon, the historic, and once charming, Chateau with 23 rooms has been closed since 2018 due to structural issues and a lack of funding to address them. • In Kansas, the Park Service last year gained title to the First Baptist Church at Nicodemus National Historic Site, but a lack of funding has left the 118-year-old house of worship boarded up. • At Gettysburg National Military Park the David Wills house, where President Lincoln spent the night before delivering his address, has been closed since fall 2024 when a water line burst and flooded the structure. Those are just a very small handful of historic structures in the National Park System that are among thousands competing for scarce rehabilitation dollars. To discuss the situation across the park system we've invited Pam Bowman, the senior director of government relations at the National Trust for Historic Preservation.

The Esplanade development finally broke ground in Chateau, after nearly a decade of planning, which means we're one step closer to a permanent Ferris Wheel on the North Side. Plus, there are fresh hopes and dreams for Station Square now that a new developer is taking over. Host Megan Harris, executive producer Mallory Falk, and producer Sophia Lo discuss what they'd like to see on the riverfront site, why alcohol sales are dipping in PA (and why Pennsylvanians can't get enough of Fireball and pink lemonade vodka), and why you'll soon see driverless taxis cruising down city streets.

Ce 235e épisode de Pos. Report clôt une série consacrée à la Transat Café L'Or en recevant un son directeur de course, tout juste rentré de Martinique, Francis Le Goff.Ce dernier confie son soulagement de voir tous les concurrents désormais à bon port - le dernier Class40 a franchi la ligne ce mardi 25 novembre à 10h07 - et sa satisfaction de voir que la transat s'est globalement bien déroulée, avec peu d'abandons (7 en Class40, 3 en Ocean Fifty sur 74 bateaux), preuve de la maturité technique des projets.Nous faisons ensuite un retour en arrière d'un mois, Francis Le Goff revenant sur la décision de la direction de course, à la demande de la classe, de lancer les Ocean Fifty le samedi 25 octobre, 24 heures avant le départ prévu. Il raconte dans le détail la première nuit, marquée par les chavirages successifs de Lazare x Helio, Koesio et Inter Invest, saluant le professionnalisme des secours.Il explique aussi pourquoi la direction de course a décidé d'arrêter les Class40 à La Corogne et les considérations qui l'ont conduite, plus tard, à raccourcir le parcours des Ultim, qui ne sont pas passés par le way-point de l'île de l'Ascension. Francis Le Goff se félicite de l'intensité de la course dans les quatre classes et se montre particulièrement satisfait, en sa qualité directeur de la Ligue de Normandie, de la victoire en Class40 du duo Guillaume Pirouelle/Cédric Chateau.D'autant qu'elle vient parachever une année normande historique, avec les succès de Charlie Dalin sur le Vendée Globe et d'Alexis Loison sur la Solitaire du Figaro Paprec et le Fastnet, mais aussi les titres de champion du monde et champion de France de match racing de l'équipage de Pauline Courtois.Diffusé le 25 novembre 2025Générique : Fast and wild/EdRecordsPost-production : Grégoire LevillainHébergé par Ausha.

Riding on the coat tails of last week's jewel heist episode, I'm back this week with the intriguing history of the Hope Diamond. The story of the Hope Diamond is convoluted. It changed hands many times, stolen on several occasions and was gradually cut down from 112 carats to just 45 and a half today. Known for its rich blue color and red phosphorescence, the Hope Diamond is extremely rare and highly coveted. But, a big part of the reason the Hope Diamond is so well known is not because it's pretty and sparkly. It's because it has a rather dark past. In fact, when you follow the story of the Hope Diamond back through its many owners, you may begin to notice a trail of destruction and tragedy left in its wake. For many, the tragic demise of many of the diamond's former owners is even proof of a curse. This infamy is a big part of what makes the Hope Diamond the most famous diamond in the world with an estimated value of between 200 and 350 million dollars. But, is any of it true? Or is it all a publicity stunt? Let's fix that. Support the show!

In this episode of the Join Us in France Travel Podcast, host Annie Sargent talks with Abigail Carter, a writer and YouTube creator who made a huge life change. Abigail lost her husband in the 9/11 attacks. She raised her two young children in Seattle. Then the pandemic hit and forced her to rethink everything. She realized she wanted a new chapter. Listen to this episode ad-free Abigail began watching videos of people renovating châteaux in France. The idea stuck. She loves travel. She loves houses. She has renovation experience. So she came to France to look at properties. At first, it felt like a fun adventure. But then she walked into a large maison de maître near Agen. It had high ceilings, old windows, caves in a cliff, and a lot of charm. Abigail made an offer the very next day. It was accepted. She found herself the owner of a twelve-bedroom home in the French countryside. Annie and Abigail talk about how to buy a property in France. They discuss inspections, banking, moving money, and dealing with renovations. They also talk about the language challenge. Abigail uses apps, Zoom lessons, and practice in daily life to improve her French. Abigail now runs creative retreats at the château. People come to sketch, write, enjoy food and wine, and discover the countryside. She has already formed a growing community around this project. Annie and Abigail share tips for anyone dreaming of a similar move. They also highlight great places to visit around Agen, including Nérac, Lectoure, Pujols, and Monflanquin. This is a story about resilience, creativity, and starting over in France. It's an inspiring reminder that you can build a new life in a new place. Join Annie and Abigail for an uplifting conversation full of practical advice and beautiful French scenery.
