Please make sure to click the 'Follow' the show - it really helps surface the show to a wider audience (which i thank you for!)What does it feel like to immersive in the landscape, to meet strangers with no barriers, to carry your home on your back and sleep under the stars? In this recap episode, adventurer and Desert Island Survival founder Tom Williams joins us to explore the raw intimacy of travel, from bike packing the Spanish coastlines to makeshift raft rides down the River Severn.LISTEN TO THE FULL EPISODE HERE Tom's passion isn't just for castaway survival—though that's his day job—it's for microadventures that anyone can begin. He shares his love for wild kayaking trips, inflatable river journeys, and a recent first-time bike tour across Spain. These aren't just travel stories. They're invitations to reconnect with our senses, our surroundings, and the strangers we meet along the way.And when it comes to giving back, Tom offers a deeply considered pay-it-forward: GiveDirectly (givedirectly.org), a nonprofit that sends money directly to people living in extreme poverty. No middlemen. No assumptions. Just trust in the agency of those who need it most. In Tom's words: “They don't lack motivation. They lack money.” You don't need to start with a grand escape. Begin with a weekend. Inflate a kayak. Ride your bike somewhere unknown. Share a meal with strangers. The more personal and low-to-the-ground the adventure, the more it opens you up. And as Tom puts it, “You smell the rosemary, you feel the landscape, and you can eat so much.”Resources & Guest Links:Tom Williams:Instagram: @tomwilliamsaloneWebsite: desertislandsurvival.comReferenced Charity:GiveDirectly: givedirectly.orgLearn more about the charity model: Doing Good Better by William MacAskillAdventure Mentions:Bike tour from Bilbao to ValenciaKayak microadventures in ChileSevern Estuary float trip (inspired by Alastair Humphreys' microadventure)Send us a textSupport the showThanks For Listening.If you enjoyed this episode, please leave a comment and subscribe for more exciting content.

Amid all the wonderful wildlife that is attracted to rivers, birds are some of the most spectacular. In this episode of Waterlands, Megan McCubbin hears stories of birding and freedom, kingfishers and kittiwakes. David Lindo, aka the Urban Birder, “hit the wall” a couple of times in a gardenless flat in Spain during lockdown. He shares how he sought out a river as soon as the restrictions were lifted, and was brought to tears by the sight and sound of nightingales and Cetti's warblers. The sound-recordist Chris Watson takes a bus into town to visit the very noisy, furthest inland colony of kittiwakes in the world. He explains how the birds choose to spend their summers amid the hustle and bustle of downtown Newcastle, under the Tyne bridge.  And musician Nick Penny reveals what he discovered about the iconic kingfisher when he dedicated a year of his life to watching them on the River Nene near his house. Featuring: David Lindo, Chris Watson and Nick Penny. Presented by Megan McCubbin If this episode has inspired you to take action for wetlands or discover more about our rivers, visit wwt.org.uk. Waterlands is brought to you by WWT. It's an 18Sixty production, produced by Ellie Richold, mixed by Melvin Rickarby and original music by Noah Bloom.

Working with artists such as composer, Owen Pallet, harpist, Mary Lattimore, pianist Kelly Moran and nature recorder, Chris Watson, Christopher Weingarten is exploring the market for "artisanal" white noise with his Fuzzzel app.

In this episode, Michael speaks with Alex Smalley, an expert in Environmental Psychology and researcher at the University of Exeter. Alex's research program explores, in his words, “the cognitive and emotional impacts of virtual encounters with the natural world”. He has collaborated extensively with the BBC in the UK, including in the creation of a wonderful podcast entitled “The Healing Power of Nature”. An important take-away from Alex's work is that virtual experiences with nature can have a positive impact on our well-being, and that this effect is stronger for those with previous experiences with the natural environment itself. This undelies another important lesson, that virtual experiences in nature should be seen as an important complement of but not a substitute for the real world. But with many of us spending most of our time indoors, such a complement can prove to be very important, as Alex explains during the interview.   References: Alex's website: https://medicine.exeter.ac.uk/people/profile/index.php?web_id=Alexander_Smalley Audible podcast: https://www.audible.com/podcast/The-Healing-Power-of-Nature/B0CLW481KM Smalley, Alexander J., Mathew P.

In this episode of the More Than Velocity Podcast, we dive deep into the intersection of strength and spin in pitching with special guests from PitchLogic and Louisiana Tech University.  Join this team of experts as we explore the impact of training and forearm strength on spin characteristics. We're excited to welcome Larry Sorenson and Steven Cukiernik from PitchLogic to discuss their groundbreaking pitching measurement system.

Larry shares his insights as a former professional pitcher, emphasizing the importance of individualized training programs to enhance performance and prevent injuries. Dr. Szymanski takes us inside the Human Performance Laboratories at Louisiana Tech, where they conduct extensive research on baseball players. From measuring arm speed and body composition to analyzing pitch movement with advanced motion capture systems, Louisiana Tech is at the forefront of integrating sports science with baseball training. Chris Watson, a graduate student at Louisiana Tech, presents his thesis findings on forearm strength biases and their influence on pitch characteristics.

Discover how these insights can help pitchers optimize their performance and stay healthy throughout the season. Whether you're a coach or player, this episode is packed with valuable information on how to blend strength training with skill development to achieve pitching excellence.

Wildlife sound recordist Chris Watson joins John to discuss a remarkable project undertaken with researchers and filmmakers. A year of underwater audio recording of blue whales in the Indian Ocean around the Seychelles found that they had made a rebound where they were previously wiped out by whaling.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The award-winning Sound Recordist and Musician, Chris Watson nominates his hero, Ludwig Koch. In 1889, German-born Koch was the first person ever to record birdsong (at the age of 8) onto a wax cylinder recorder, given to him by his father as a toy. Despite a promising baritone voice and being a very good violinist, the first world war put paid to Ludwig Koch's career as a musician and he began working for the German branch of EMI recording cityscapes, before going on to invent the ‘sound book', a nascent sort of multimedia that became very popular in Germany before the second world war. As a Jew and an outspoken critic of the Nazi regime, Koch fled Germany in 1936 for England, sadly leaving his many recordings behind. But his theatrical delivery, unique voice and the fact that, as Chris Watson notes, "He was not shy about his achievements", soon made him a household name in broadcasting here in the UK. Chris Watson is joined by emeritus professor Sean Street. Together and with the aid of archive, they marvel over the great lengths Koch went to to capture his 'performers'.
