#444: Harry Subertas -- Capital Backyard Ultra, Unlocking the 200+ Mile Distance by Chris Ward

Chris Ward says the U.S. consumer remains resilient, with retail sales posting their strongest gain in years as employment stays firm. He sees easing mortgage rates setting the stage for a recovery in housing, while industrial stocks offer a steady hedge amid reshoring efforts and global defense rebuilding. Ward also weighs whether defensive, low‑volatility sectors, including Apple (AAPL), can continue to cushion portfolios against inflation and rate uncertainty.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

BIGFOOT REPLAYS : Twelve Crazy Workouts from Cameron Dorn by Chris Ward

Now that the OT: team is back in one timezone, it's time to catch up on some spicy new releases Felix Saw at Dubai Watch Week, including the Ressence x Marc Newson collaboration, the third instalment of TAG Heuer's partnership with streetwear brand fragment and a surprising pocket watch. We also talk about the one new release so nice that it ended up on Andy's wrist #nospoilers.  Then Felix talks to the one and only Carlos Rosillo, co-founder and CEO of Bell & Ross. It's one of the best kinds of watch discussions, one where there's hardly any discussion of new releases or limited editions — instead it's a reflective conversation about the brand's history, legacy and 20 years of square watches.   Andy's new watch (01:00:24) The latest TAG Heuer x fragment (01:05:10) Ressence x Marc Newson (01:07:26) Temporal Works (01:10:23) Chris Ward x Studio Underdog (01:12:47) Vera Clocks (01:16:00) Interview with Carlos Rosillo (01:16:50)   Show Notes: https://www.otpodcast.com.au/show-notes   OT: Discord - https://discord.com/invite/X3Vvc9z7aV   How to follow us: https://www.instagram.com/ot.podcast https://www.facebook.com/otpodcastau https://instagram.com/andygreenlive https://instagram.com/fkscholz   Send us an email: otthepodcast@gmail.com   If you liked our podcast - please remember to like/share and subscribe.

 In part two Chris Ward moves from the personal story into the practical blueprint. This is where the conversation shifts gears and gets straight into the habits, behaviours and systems firefighters need if they want to stay fit for the job for decades, not months. Chris opens up about the emotional toll of testing, the stigma around capability, and the reality that annual fitness fear is often a lifestyle problem not a treadmill problem. He breaks down how shift work, on call pressure, modern declarations, poor recovery, bad sleep, erratic training and even small daily choices stack up into long term decline. Chris digs deep into programming, nutrition, movement, strength, cardio, and the mindset shift from “training for the test” to building year round operational readiness. From menopause to chronic disease, from confidence issues to the mental health benefits of discipline and routine, this episode gives firefighters a clear, honest, and achievable path back to control. If part one was the wake up call, part two is the map. Find Chris HEREAccess all episodes, documents, GIVEAWAYS & debriefs HEREPodcast Apparel, Hoodies, Flags, Mugs HEREPODCAST GIFT - FREE subscription to essential Firefighting publications HERE A big thanks to our partners for supporting this episode.GORE-TEX Professional ClothingMSA The Safety CompanyIDEXFIRE & EVACUATION SERVICE LTD HAIX Footwear - Get offical podcast discount on HAIX HEREXendurance - to hunt performance & endurance 20% off HERE with code ffp20Lyfe Linez -  Get Functional Hydration FUEL for FIREFIGHTERS, Clean no sugar  for daily hydration. 80% of people live dehydratedSend us a textSupport the show***The views expressed in this episode are those of the individual speakers.

In part one Chris Ward goes deep on the truth about firefighter fitness, long term health, and the realities of staying operational into your sixties. From the early days of joining the service to the shock of pension changes, chronic illness, fear of capability tests and the uncomfortable slide from “fit at twenty eight” to “struggling at forty five”, Chris lays out why fitness for firefighters is no longer about passing a yearly treadmill minimum. It is about health span, resilience, and building a fitness pension that carries you through a forty year career and out the other side with a life still worth living. Raw, honest and full of lived experience, this episode cuts through the noise and gets to the heart of what the job now demands.Find Chris HEREAccess all episodes, documents, GIVEAWAYS & debriefs HEREPodcast Apparel, Hoodies, Flags, Mugs HEREPODCAST GIFT - FREE subscription to essential Firefighting publications HERE A big thanks to our partners for supporting this episode.GORE-TEX Professional ClothingMSA The Safety CompanyIDEXFIRE & EVACUATION SERVICE LTD HAIX Footwear - Get offical podcast discount on HAIX HEREXendurance - to hunt performance & endurance 20% off HERE with code ffp20Lyfe Linez -  Get Functional Hydration FUEL for FIREFIGHTERS, Clean no sugar  for daily hydration. 80% of people live dehydratedSend us a textSupport the show***The views expressed in this episode are those of the individual speakers.

In this latest epsiode, I chat with Chris Ward a Seattle-based VP of Account Management at Digitas about how his broad curiosity for design, calm approach, and love of the outdoors fuel his work. Chris shares his origin story, why account managers should aim to be second-best at every job, and how he uses design thinking to solve real user problems. We also explore his personal projects, where he transforms his photography into tangible creations—from coffee-table books to retro park-poster prints—and how being outside helps him recharge. The conversation touches on finishing versus abandoning projects, balancing work and life, and the belief that everyone has the ability to ideate.Plus listen to our Human Spark Spotify Playlist~ NoelA76 and its episodes are created by Noel ChildsSeason 4 on the Human Spark is produced by Noel ChildsSeason 3 on Scale is produced by Noel ChildsSeason 2 on Change was produced by Noel ChildsSeason 1 on AI was produced by Casey Hudetz and Noel ChildsOur theme music was composed and performed by Stella Solveig and mixed and mastered by Abbey Nettleton The outro was read by Trudie and Storey Childs If you like what you hear, please give us a rating.Or become a member of the A76 Patreon at patreon.com/A76designpodHave a question or comment, email noel@A76pod.comAnd follow us on Instagram

#428: Ward Family Summer Adventures with Lindsey & Harper Ward by Chris Ward

In this episode, Mike Konrad is joined by Chris Ward, founder and managing director of Solderking Assembly Materials, a UK-based manufacturer of solders and chemical consumables for electronic, electrical, and engineered assemblies. Ward brings decades of experience in soldering materials and chemical formulations—and he's built a company committed to performance, consistency, and innovation.

They’re being targeted by investors who have figured out how to get rich by strip-mining local-news outfits. The model is simple: Gut the staff, sell the real estate, jack up subscription prices, and wring as much cash as possible out of the enterprise until eventually enough readers cancel their subscriptions that the paper folds, or is reduced to a desiccated husk of its former self,” the magazine wrote. Bottom line: I think the U-T’s journalism is worth $2,000 a year, if it were a philanthropic cause and I could afford that. We have lots of donors who make bigger contributions than that.

The film delves deep into the resilience of the human spirit, examining why individuals are driven to test themselves in extreme conditions and what they discover about themselves along the way. This episode offers a profound look into the mindset of an adventurer, the transformative power of endurance, and the light that shines after the darkest moments.

Famine and resilience. Around 2060 BCE, the Overlord Ankhtyfy was riding high. Then, a crisis hit southern Egypt. Drought, food shortages, and starvation swept through the region. From sites like Elephantine, Edfu, and historical texts, we get a picture of Egypt in difficulty. But also, a sense of communities perservering and rebuilding...
