Cette semaine, Battlefield viens à peine d'arriver qu'il nous lancer sa version Battle Royale gratuite, Redsec, et on se demande si c'est vraiment différent de Call of Duty: Warzone? On parle aussi de Fortnite qui fait un détour vers Springfield avec les Simpsons pour toute une saison (avec Stupid Sexy Flanders) et Microsoft continue de faire des vagues avec la Gamepass, cette fois-ci avec le départ imminent de S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Shadows of Chernobyl. En impression, je vous parle de l'impressionnant Absolum, publié par Dotemu et développé par Guard Crush Games et Supamonk, un beat ‘em up à saveur roguelite (ou rogue ‘em up?) qui va certainement plaire aux amateurs de Streets of Rage 4 et Hades / Dead Cells! Finalement en question, on parle de la possibilité d'offrir Steam sur console de salon ainsi que de mon aversion pour le carton, à savoir si j'aime vraiment ça des jeux dans des boîtes en carton dans ma collection et pourquoi?

When you hear the word nuclear, does your mind flash to mushroom clouds, Chernobyl, or maybe the glowing three-eyed fish from The Simpsons? Well, what if nuclear electricity — far from being an environmental villain — is actually one of the safest, cleanest, and most land-efficient energy sources we have? It turns out that former fashion model Isabelle Boemeke is on a mission to change how we think about nuclear energy. When she and I met a few years ago, in Italy of all places, she was known by many simply as Isodope, her online persona that blends fashion, futurism, and fission to make nuclear cool again. And now, in her new book Rad Future, Isabelle argues that nuclear power isn't just misunderstood — it's essential to solving climate change, land preservation, and numerous other important concerns. In our conversation, Isabelle details: Why fear of nuclear power stems more from cultural trauma than from science, Why nuclear electricity is safer and environmentally-friendlier than not just fossil fuels, but also solar and wind, What's fact vs. fiction when it comes to the world's biggest energy disasters, And why, despite all the excitement about fusion and modular reactors, maybe the smartest thing we can do right now is simply pick a proven fission design — and start building them fast. I always love when it turns out that the thing we thought was the villain is actually a hero, or at least better than what we thought. If you do too, this is the episode for you, as this episode may challenge your assumptions about what's truly "green" and is actually safe. Discussed in this episode The 2019 Amazon Rainforest fires and Australian fires that decimated massive amounts of wildlife habitat helped inspire Isabelle to focus on environmental concerns such as climate change. The 1975 Baquiao dam collapse killed hundreds of thousands of people. Isabelle recommends checking out www.whatisnuclear.com and the Decouple Podcast. Commonwealth Fusion recently raised $863 million. The US military is investing in small, mobile nuclear reactors. Paul recently read a sci-fi book about nuclear-powered wildlife called The Kaiju Preservation Society. Get to Know Isabelle Boemeke With her signature mix of humor, sharp research, and optimistic vision, her debut book, Rad Future, makes the case for nuclear electricity as one of the best tools to solve the climate crisis. Boemeke is also known as Isodope, the irreverent digital persona on a mission to make nuclear cool. She is the Founder and Executive Director of Save Clean Energy and board member of Nature is Nonpartisan and Nuclear Scaling Initiative, where she works at the intersection of policy, culture, and technology to accelerate pragmatic solutions. She delivered a TED Talk that has been viewed nearly 2 million times, led a grassroots campaign that helped delay the closure of California's Diablo Canyon Power Plant, and is a TIME Magazine "Next Generation Leader."
In the first half of this episode, Patrick and Tommie investigate the mystery of the blue dogs of Chernobyl, meet the Pastor Garafiano, remember Fanny Brice on her birthday, Tommie sings a duet with Barbra Streisand, they say goodbye to actresses June Lockhart and Prunella Scales, get caught in The Act with Liza Minnelli, throw (kitty) litter at National Cat Day, wonder if the Supreme Court will take another look at same-sex marriage, question if President Trump is serious about running for a third term, worry if Trump will place military forces on American soil in the future, and ogle at the hot white men in the U.S. Labor Department's Soviet-style posters. (Part Two will be released on November 4.)

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by the incredible screenwriter, showrunner, producer and dungeon master CRAIG MAZIN!Craig is a self proclaimed Pipster! Which bodes incredibly well as an opening gambit right there... This is such a treat of an episode which anyone possessing an interest in the making of television (and cinema in general) will get an immense kick out of. Chances are you will know Craig from his recent work on The Last Of Us, some of you may go back to the Chernobyl miniseries times, and some even further to the Hangover movies, but none of these can be considered pigeonholes. There is so much in the craft of these projects, and as viewers of them will know - the humanity is undeniable, and that's something that just cannot be faked or phoned-in. So what you hear here is a conversation with someone who makes incredible shows and movies, informed by a love of the work, the people involved, and life in general. To hear that he was once blamed by a critic for being "singularly responsible for degrading Western Civilization" will make absolutely negative sense by the time you've heard this. Oh and stay for the shared Barney story too, cos that rules. Basically - too much to sum up here - just listen and enjoy, it's a classic DPP right here!PIP'S PATREON PAGE if you're of a supporting natureIMDBSCRIPTNOTES podcast (book here)THE LAST OF USCHERNOBYLSPEECH DEVELOPMENT WEBSTOREPIP TWITCH • (music stuff)PIP INSTAGRAMPIP TWITTERPIP PATREONPIP IMDBPOD BIBLE Hosted on Acast.

Happy Hump Day!!!! Just a few more sleeps until Halloween. Speaking of Halloween, we ran down a list of the top Pop-Culture costumes of 2025 and which horror movie you should watch based on your Zodiac sign. In the news, nobody won the Mega Millions drawing last night, Hurricane Melissa continues to batter Jamaica, and we might get contacted by aliens today. In sports, the Blue Jays bounced back last night in Game 4 of the World Series, the Bucks beat the Knicks, a Penguins fan suffered life-threatening injuries after falling from the upper level of their arena, and a look at Week 9 of the NFL. Elsewhere in sports, some interesting stats from the epic Game Three of the World Series. With Week 9 kicking off tomorrow, we made our Pigskin Picks this morning. And we also discussed the latest trend on TikTok…something called "Bird Theory". We talked about the Fat Bear contest a few weeks ago, and now a parks department in Texas just conducted the first ever Fat Squirrel Week! Cool kid from the Philly area raised a bunch of money for his town's K-9 unit. And check out this incredible video of officers near Fort Worth saved a child's life after it was pinned underneath an overturned car. New month starts on Saturday, so we gave you a list of things to look forward to in the month of November. And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a #FloridaMan who got busted for smashing a bunch of pumpkins at Target, a truck carrying a bunch of aggressive lab monkeys crashed and now they're on the loose, a guy who shot his neighbor because he thought she was over-feeding her horse, A Chinese family sued their daughter's school after the child was diagnosed with "acute and transient psychotic disorder" that was allegedly caused by a HORROR movie she had watched in class, the wild dogs at Chernobyl are apparently turning blue, and a #FloridaWoman who might be the worst criminal in the world.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
This week, Moscow's top general has claimed that Russia has tested a low-flying experimental nuclear-powered cruise missile. It is said to be powered by a nuclear reactor and is capable of carrying a nuclear warhead with a potentially unlimited range. Russia calls it Burevestnik, Nato have codenamed it ‘Skyfall', and others have said it's a ‘tiny flying Chernobyl'. Western experts have previously cast doubt over missile's strategic value and Russian claims of having successfully tested it.But how dangerous is it?Victoria is joined by the BBC's Ben Tavener and Catriona Perry in Moscow and Washington respectively, plus Dr Justin Bronk who is a senior research fellow for Airpower and Technology at the military think tank RUSI.Plus, after Trump shifts his positions on sanctions, we look to the future to ask how the US president could potentially put more economic pressure on Russia.Today's episode is presented by Victoria Derbyshire.

“They know we have a nuclear submarine, the greatest in the world, right off their shore,” Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One on Monday as he prepared to travel to Japan. He was speaking after Putin on Sunday hailed an 8,700-mile, 15-hour test flight for Russia’s “unique” nuclear-powered missile, dubbed a “flying Chernobyl,” which the country says could strike targets in the US.

Let's face it: in the long run, there's either going to be safe AI or no AI. There is no future with powerful unsafe AI and human beings. In this episode of For Humanity, John Sherman speaks with Professor Stuart Russell — one of the world's foremost AI pioneers and co-author of Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach — about the terrifying honesty of today's AI leaders.Russell reveals that the CEO of a major AI company told him his best hope for a good future is a “Chernobyl-scale AI disaster.” Yes — one of the people building advanced AI believes only a catastrophic warning shot could wake up the world in time. John and Stuart dive deep into the psychology, politics, and incentives driving this suicidal race toward AGI.They discuss:* Why even AI insiders are losing faith in control* What a “Chernobyl moment” could actually look like* Why regulation isn't anti-innovation — it's survival* The myth that America is “allergic” to AI rules* How liability, accountability, and provable safety could still save us* Whether we can ever truly coexist with a superintelligenceThis is one of the most urgent conversations ever hosted on For Humanity. If you care about your kids' future — or humanity's — don't miss this one.
In Italia e in Europa, l'energia nucleare rappresenta uno degli argomenti più complessi e dibattuti, eppure spesso la percezione pubblica diverge notevolmente dalla realtà dei fatti. Per comprendere come la tecnologia nucleare si sia evoluta negli ultimi decenni e quali sistemi di sicurezza la caratterizzano oggi, vogliamo ripercorrere gli incidenti storici che hanno plasmato questa industria, da Three Mile Island a Chernobyl, fino a Fukushima, analizzando cosa abbiamo imparato e come le moderne centrali di terza e quarta generazione rispondono a queste lezioni. Proviamo anche a capire cos'è il principio della "difesa in profondità" e come i livelli di protezione ridondanti e indipendenti rendono i reattori straordinariamente sicuri.Nella sezione delle notizie parliamo dei disservizi di Amazon AWS, del debutto italiano di Prime Vision, la modalità di visione per il calcio che integra realtà aumentata e intelligenza artificiale e infine di un impianto di vetrificazione dei rifiuti radioattivi.--Indice--00:00 - Introduzione00:59 - I disservizi di Amazon AWS (IlSole24Ore.com, Luca Martinelli)02:20 - Prime Vision debutta in Italia (DDay.it, Matteo Gallo)03:32 - Una nuova gestione dei rifiuti radioattivi (HDBlog.it, Matteo Gallo)04:59 - La sicurezza nelle centrali nucleari (Matteo Gallo)17:57 - Conclusione--Testo--Leggi la trascrizione: https://www.dentrolatecnologia.it/S7E43#testo--Contatti--• www.dentrolatecnologia.it• Instagram (@dentrolatecnologia)• Telegram (@dentrolatecnologia)• YouTube (@dentrolatecnologia)• redazione@dentrolatecnologia.it--Immagini--• Foto copertina: Wirestock su Freepik--Brani--• Ecstasy by Rabbit Theft• Falling For You by SouMix & Bromar
The forests hid beasts. The deep hid Leviathans. But the sky has always hidden judgment. From the Mothman of Point Pleasant to the Black Bird of Chernobyl and the winged figures over Chicago, the same red-eyed watcher returns whenever disaster is near. Are these warnings from something above—or projections of fear made flesh?In Week 3 of Juxtober, Juxtaposition looks up and asks: What if our omens are of our own making?

What if the figures we fear… aren't here to harm us, but to warn us?Tonight on Late Night Legends, special guest Stormphrog guides us into the realm of Harbinger Entities — mysterious beings who appear before world-changing events. From Mothman's shadow over Point Pleasant and whispers of Chernobyl, to entities we refuse to name here (you'll have to listen to learn the rest)… we ask the ultimate question:Are these omens of doom, or guardians at the threshold of destiny?Between philosophical terror and Taco Bell theology, the LNL crew wrestles with fate, free will, and fire sauce. Some warnings come with wings. Some arrive in dreams. All of them… mean something.
Nuclear disasters like Chernobyl and Fukushima leave morethan just ruins; they cause profound and lasting biological damage that echoes through generations. This episode explores how ionising radiation affects DNA, cells, and entire ecosystems, revealing the hidden costs of these catastrophicevents. From cancer risks to ecological disruption, I uncover the complex science behind the invisible fallout that shapes lives long after the blasts.

È il 1986: un comitato scientifico internazionale stabilisce un nuovo nome per indicare il virus dell'Aids: d'ora in poi si parlerà soltanto di Hiv, ovvero “Virus dell'immunodeficienza umana”. Nel corso della seconda conferenza mondiale sulla pandemia che si tiene a Parigi, l'OMS fornisce una stima dai 5 ai 10 milioni di sieropositivi, mentre i morti si contano già in alcune migliaia. Non stupisce che, in un mondo in cui per telefonare fuori casa si usano ancora i gettoni, passi quasi inosservata ai più l'emergenza pandemica causata da C-brain, il primo virus informatico della storia.Ma a impressionare e a incutere timore e insicurezza nell'opinione pubblica mondiale, nel corso dell'anno concorrono anche altri eventi tragici e fatali: come l'esplosione avvenuta il 28 gennaio in diretta televisiva, nel corso della fase di decollo dello Space Shuttle Challenger, con il sacrificio di tutti e sette i componenti dell'equipaggio… eppure l'esplosione avvenuta il 26 aprile del reattore numero 4 della centrale atomica di Chernobyl, nell'Ucraina ancora sovietizzata, che libera una spaventosa nube tossica e radioattiva che si espanse nei cieli di tutta Europa.In questo episodio:La chiusura della Steps - Il PCI e la questione omosessuale - La mozione della CGIL sul movimento - L'inchiesta di Babilonia sugli omosessuali perseguitati dal fascismo - L'attentato a Ivan Teobaldelli - Il caso di Bruno Deiana - L'impegno di Lina Sotis nei confronti delle iniziative del movimento gay.Interviste a:Daniele Cassandro, giornalista e critico musicale; Franco Grillini, attivista, politico e giornalista, già segretario nazionale di Arcigay: Roberto Dartenuc, responsabile organizzativo Arcigay; Pietro Folena, politico e giornalista; Giovanni Dall'Orto, attivista, giornalista, storico; Ivan Teobaldelli, attivista, giornalista, scrittore, co-fondatore del mensile Babilonia; Enzo Cucco, attivista, giornalista e membro del Fuori!; Lina Sotis, giornalista e scrittrice.Per approfondire gli argomenti di questo episodio:BIBLIOGRAFIA:Fabio Giovannini, Comunisti e diversi - Il PCI e la questione omosessuale, Bari, Dedalo Libri, 1980COLONNA SONORA:On the beach - Chris ReaA kind of magic - QueenDon't leave me this way - The CommunardsCarovan of love - The HousemartinsIn between days - The CureVampirella - The SystemNotorius - Duran DuranTrue colors - Cyndy LauperWord up - CameoDon't dream it's over - Crowded HouseHanging on a heart attack - DeviceDriving satisfaction - Grace JonesTake my breath away - BerlinAdrenalina - Giuni Russo e Donatella RettoreLive to tell - MadonnaOh, l'amour - Erasure
"What is the cost of lies? It's not that we'll mistake them for the truth. The real danger is that if we hear enough lies, then we no longer recognize the truth at all".

For fifty years, we've been told that nature is fragile — a porcelain Eden, easily shattered by the slightest human pressure. But history tells a different story. From the fall of Rome to the Black Death, from Chernobyl to Detroit, every time people retreat, the wilderness rushes back with astonishing speed. In this episode, we examine the reality that civilization is fragile while life on Earth is ferociously tenacious. Drawing on historians like Bryan Ward-Perkins and William Cronon, and ecologists like C.S. Holling, we discover how fast forests and animals can reclaim human spaces, and why the modern myth of a delicate planet misses the deeper truth. Nature is not fragile. Civilization is.

Kyle tries to excuse a blackout weekend by saying he was “over-served,” but nobody's buying it. What follows is a full-scale meltdown intervention where clown college, Swedish couples, corgis, and the Chernobyl disaster all collide into one of the sharpest accountability lessons of all time.
In this fascinating episode, Bryan welcomes back longtime friend and nuclear industry veteran Bill Nowicki to discuss a recently released document from DHS and NUSTL that provides new recommendations for HVAC operations during nuclear events. Bill brings over 40 years of nuclear experience, starting as a 19-year-old Navy nuclear operator (after being deemed "not ready for the grill" at Friendly's restaurant) and progressing through various roles, including lead engineer on critical control systems at nuclear facilities. Bill shares his journey from nuclear plant evaluator to leadership trainer, now working internationally to help nuclear professionals develop their skills. His current podcast, "The Nuclear Leader," continues this mission alongside his passion project, "Navigating Mental Illness: Parent Stories." Bill provides an accessible explanation of nuclear reactor operations, using the analogy that "contamination is the poop and radiation is the smell" to help listeners understand the difference between radioactive material and radiation itself. He walks through the three-barrier system in nuclear plants: fuel cladding, reactor coolant system, and containment structures. The discussion covers how fission works, the controlled chain reaction process, and what happens when these systems fail, using examples from Three Mile Island, Chernobyl, and Fukushima to illustrate different failure modes. The episode explores the current nuclear renaissance driven by AI data centers and industrial companies seeking clean baseload power. Bill explains how private industry is now directly funding nuclear projects, bypassing traditional utility structures, with companies like Microsoft and ExxonMobil investing billions in new nuclear facilities. This represents a dramatic shift from the post-Three Mile Island era when nuclear construction essentially stopped in the United States. The core discussion focuses on updated emergency guidance that reverses previous recommendations. Instead of the old "shelter in place and shut off your AC" advice, the new guidance suggests keeping HVAC systems running while eliminating outdoor air intake. This approach recognizes that modern, well-sealed buildings with high-efficiency filtration can provide better protection by maintaining positive pressure and filtering recirculated air rather than allowing uncontrolled infiltration. Bill and Bryan discuss how building characteristics dramatically affect the best response strategy. High-performance homes with tight construction, MERV 13+ filters, and controlled ventilation systems offer significant advantages, requiring only the ability to shut off outdoor air intake. Conversely, older, leaky buildings may still benefit from complete system shutdown to prevent contamination circulation. The conversation highlights how lessons learned during COVID-19 about airborne contamination and filtration directly apply to nuclear emergency preparedness, emphasizing the importance of case-by-case analysis rather than one-size-fits-all approaches. Topics Covered Nuclear industry career paths - From Navy nuclear training to civilian plant operations and leadership roles Basic nuclear physics - Fission process, chain reactions, and the difference between contamination and radiation Nuclear plant safety systems - Three-barrier containment approach and historical accident analysis Current nuclear renaissance - AI-driven power demand and private industry investment in new reactors Emergency preparedness evolution - How COVID-19 research influenced nuclear emergency HVAC guidance Building performance factors - Impact of construction quality, filtration, and ventilation design on safety HVAC system modifications - Importance of outdoor air shutoff capability and high-efficiency filtration Case-by-case response strategies - Why building characteristics determine optimal emergency procedures Podcasting journey - Early days of niche podcasting and building communities around specialized topics Leadership development - International nuclear industry training and professional development Personal stories - Navy submarine experiences and nuclear plant operational challenges Here is the full document from the DHS: https://www.nrc.gov/docs/ML2425/ML24250A059.pdf Have a question that you want us to answer on the podcast?

Show Notes:https://wetflyswing.com/802 Presented By: Intrepid Camp Gear Sponsors:https://wetflyswing.com/sponsors Mckenzie Johns' fly fishing road trips have taken her from small Pennsylvania streams to epic solo journeys across the Rockies. On her recent fly fishing road trip from Colorado to Alberta, Mckenzie combined her passion for trout fishing with the freedom of rooftop tent camping, traveling with her blue heeler, and testing the Intrepid Geo Solo tent. Along the way, she shared how fitness helps her stay strong and confident outdoors, making long days on the river and setting up camp effortless. Her approach blends gear know-how, solo travel safety, and a love for exploring wild, beautiful places. For women looking to plan their own fly fishing road trips, Mckenzie's story shows it's possible to merge fishing, camping, and fitness into one unforgettable experience. From choosing the right tent and packing fly fishing essentials to embracing solo travel and building outdoor strength, her advice encourages confidence on and off the water. Whether on a calm lake, a fast-moving river, or a mountain campsite, Mckenzie Johns proves that fly fishing road trips—when combined with skill, preparation, and passion—lead to adventures worth remembering. 01:14 - Mckenzie Johns was introduced to fly fishing by her father in Pennsylvania, stepped away from it for years, and reignited her passion after catching her first trout at Deckers, Colorado, about 7–8 years ago. She is now in Canmore, Alberta, preparing for her first fishing trip with her father since 2019, highlighting the deep bond they share through the sport. 05:46 - Mckenzie Johns discussed her Intrepid Camp Gear setup, which she tested during an eight-day solo road trip from Colorado to Canada. She uses a 2024 Toyota 4Runner equipped with a Geo Solo rooftop tent and a 190 cargo box, a combination that keeps her organized, allows for quick setup in under two minutes, and provides safety and comfort, especially valuable for solo female travel in remote, scenic locations. For more information, view here. 12:45 - Mckenzie Johns explained that when she first committed to fly fishing, she relied on guidance from her then-partner, supplemented by podcasts, YouTube tutorials, and self-study, but ultimately improved through hands-on practice. She identified casting as her biggest early challenge, starting with Euro-nymphing before transitioning to traditional fly fishing, and now relies on a few “confidence” patterns—especially a size 18 perdigon, flashback hare's ear, and hopper-dropper rigs with a chubby Chernobyl and egg pattern—favoring an intuitive approach over strict hatch-matching. 19:03 - Mckenzie Johns shared that she hasn't been Euro-nymphing much lately, instead fishing with an indicator setup holding two to three subsurface flies—often using a bright pink indicator for visibility. With rivers blown out from recent rain, she's considering lakes while enjoying the rare chance to fish alongside her father, a dedicated trout angler from Connecticut who's always ready to pull out a fly rod whenever he's near water. 22:18 - Mckenzie Johns said road trips let her explore beyond Colorado into places like Wyoming, Montana, and now the Canadian Rockies—finding beauty in the landscapes and the waters she fishes. Her tip for a long journey is to research for safety but embrace solo travel for its empowerment, noting that a reliable vehicle like her Toyota 4Runner makes it easier to be ready for adventure anywhere. 29:15 - Mckenzie Johns described how her fitness journey began from a low point in her life, where hiking in New Hampshire sparked the realization that better physical health would let her enjoy the outdoors more fully. After moving to Colorado, she shifted her mindset from exercising for appearance to training for strength, endurance, and mental clarity—eventually embracing home workouts and even coaching other women to build the fitness needed to explore and adventure confidently. 35:00 - Mckenzie Johns explained that anyone can start a fitness journey at home with just a yoga mat, a few sets of dumbbells, and a focus on weightlifting mixed with some cardio, noting that expensive equipment or a gym membership isn't necessary. She also shared how the fly fishing community has become more inclusive for women in recent years, though challenges remain, and emphasized the importance of female-led groups that create safe, welcoming spaces for beginners to learn and grow in the sport. 46:18 - Mckenzie Johns advised that anyone looking to improve their health can start small with regular walking for low-impact cardio and basic stretching to keep muscles limber before and after activities. She also shared about her blue heeler, Sari—nicknamed “Smooch” for her affectionate nature—who often joins her adventures and enjoys relaxing in their rooftop Geo Solo tent, where she can watch the outdoors through the open windows. 50:26 - Mckenzie Johns shared that she still uses her first fly rod, a nine-foot five-weight Orvis Clearwater, which has proven versatile for Colorado waters, and that she often wet wades in warm weather but relies on her well-patched Patagonia waders—purchased secondhand—when conditions call for it. On the road, she enjoys a collaborative Spotify playlist she created with her social media followers, featuring a mix of genres from classic rock to pop, including songs by Kansas that bring back fond memories of time spent with her dad. If you're looking for the playlist, go here. 57:43 - Mckenzie Johns said this Canadian Rockies road trip has inspired her to return next summer for a longer stay when the fishing conditions are at their peak. She took eight days to make the nearly 2,000-mile drive from Boulder, savoring stops in Wyoming, Montana, and along the scenic Trans-Canada Highway through British Columbia before arriving in Canmore. Conclusion with Mckenzie John on Fly Fishing Camping In this episode, Mackenzie Johns shares her journey into fly fishing and camping, from her solo road trip across the Rockies to testing the Intrepid Geo Solo rooftop tent. She talks about her blue heeler travel companion, how fitness plays a role in her outdoor adventures, and tips for women looking to start their own fishing and camping journeys. Along the way, Mackenzie offers gear advice, safety insights, and encouragement for embracing the outdoors with confidence. Have you ever tried planning your own adventure “on the fly”?
