In order to understand the issue of the cocaine trade in Colombia, we need to look at three factors: 1. Drugs Policy as a Geopolitical tool. 2. Markets: A Political Economic issue. 3. Narratives: the Myth of the Narco. On the Colombia Calling podcast this week we speak to Estefanía Ciro Rodríguez, expert on drug politics, the cocaine economy and the Colombian armed conflict. We discuss la Escombrera in Medellin, Pablo Escobar, Álvaro Uribe Vélez, Arms trafficking by the Sinaloa cartel and the Cártel de Jalisco Nueva Generación to Colombia, genetically modified coca, cocaine seizures, the price of cocaine, and why Colombia as a nation needs to look in the mirror.

What's at stake when a child has their first meal in a new home? For children entering care, especially those who have faced food insecurity, that first plate of food can be a big moment. In this programme, Ruth Alexander explores how food and mealtimes can help children feel safe and give them a sense of belonging. She meets Jessica-Rae Williamson, a 21 year old care leaver from Manchester, England, who still remembers the first meal she ate with her foster family, aged 13. In Wrexham, Wales, Ruth meets long-term foster carers John and Viv, Cath and Neil and Rosemary, who have opened their homes to dozens of children through Foster Wales. They discuss their strategies for dealing with picky eating and hoarding. Dr Katja Rowell, feeding expert and author of the book “Love Me, Feed Me: The Foster and Adoptive Parent's Guide to Responsive Feeding”, gives her counter-intuitive tips for avoiding mealtimes becoming a battleground. And Melissa Guida-Richards, author of the book “What White Parents Should Know About Transracial Adoption”, shares her experience of being adopted from Colombia by Italian and Portuguese parents living in the US and her subsequent search for her Colombian heritage through food. This programme contains discussion of food poverty and insecurity, and disordered eating. If you've been affected by any of the issues raised and need support, speak to a health professional.

In 1991, Daniel Petrie, the director of Beverly Hills Cop and Turner & Hooch, brought a script he'd co-written with David Koepp, based on the novel by William P. Kennedy, to the big screen. Starring Sean Astin a year before he had everyone chanting his name in Rudy and Wil Wheaton a year after he'd beamed off the Enterprise in Star Trek: The Next Generation, this film had its finger on the pulse of moviemaking trends. When the red dawn sees an elite boarding school under siege by Colombian terrorists, leaving the students running scared from lethal weapons, these kids must stand and deliver to defend their home away from home alone, or risk dying hard and ending up in the dead poets society. With Louis Gossett Jr., Denholm Elliott, Jerry Orbach, R. Lee Ermey, and Andrew Divoff rounding out the ensemble cast, this coming-of-age action flick was a modest success at the box office, but quickly forgotten, finishing 87th at the ‘91 box office. But old playthings never die, they just sink to the bottom of the toybox, so we're digging up and dusting off Toy Soldiers - and we're gonna play with it for a little bit.

Ibrahim Akasha was the kingpin of East Africa's heroin highway, setting up a massive tracking empire that stretched from Afghanistan, Pakistan and Iran to Kenya, South Africa and Europe. When he was gunned down in 2000, his sons stepped into the void, hungrier and even more violent...but also, more sloppy. They struck deals with Pakistani mobsters and Colombian cartels, turning Kenya's ports into gateways for global dope. But their empire crumbled in a DEA sting straight out of a Hollywood script.

This week, Kelly talks with International Crisis Group Analyst Elizabeth Dickinson about the surge in cartel-driven violence in Colombia and how USAID cuts have impacted the country. Elizabeth discusses how criminal groups have filled the vacuum left by FARC's demobilization in 2016, leading to the highest coca cultivation levels in Colombia's history and a surge in political instability that is testing the country's democratic institutions. Elizabeth Dickinson has been Crisis Group's Senior Analyst for Colombia since 2019, based in Bogotá. Her work centers around armed conflict dynamics in the country, organised crime, military strategy, and the implementation of the 2016 peace accord between the Colombian government and militant guerrillas. She leads ongoing work around defence strategy reform and regional drug trafficking. Prior to joining International Crisis Group, Elizabeth worked for a decade as a journalist, including roles at Foreign Policy magazine, The National and The Economist.

Jovencio de la Paz (b. 1986) was born in Singapore, and currently lives and works in Eugene, OR. They received their BFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, IL, in 2008, followed by an MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art, Bloomfield Hills, MI, in 2012. De la Paz has been included in group shows at Museum of Contemporary Art Denver, CO; EFA Project Space, New York, NY; Museum of Craft and Folk Art, Los Angeles, CA; Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art, Eugene, OR; Cranbrook Art Museum, Bloomfield Hills, MI; The Franklin, Chicago, IL; Uri Gallery, Seoul, Korea; among others. In 2022, Jovencio de la Paz was named a United States Artist Fellow for their significant contribution to the field of craft. The title of the exhibition, el lugar de los milagros / the place of miracles is a quotation from didactic signage at the necropolis of Mitla. Located in San Pablo Villa de Mitla, Oaxaca, Mexico, this archaeological site is ritually significant to the history of textiles. The walls of the pre-Colombian settlement depict traditional weave structures from the region, considered to be sacred pathways for the souls of the dead to traverse between the seen and unseen worlds. De la Paz likens the site to a massive computational device transmitting sacred data via circuitry of carved stone, aiding the spirit in its negotiation between worlds. Re-coding the mathematical pattern language of Mitla into digital weave structures, de la Paz confronts their own colonial displacement as an immigrant and cultural descendent of Spanish colonialism.

As global clinical trials become more competitive and data-driven, Latin America is stepping up with a new global standard in clinical trial quality. In this episode, Etienne Nichols speaks with Julio Martinez-Clark, CEO of BioAccess and a key advocate for clinical site certification in Latin America. They discuss the launch of the GCSA certification and IAOCR accreditation now available in the Americas, exploring how these standards improve site credibility, de-risk clinical trials, and offer faster pathways for medtech market access. From regulatory advantages to site selection strategies, this episode is essential listening for sponsors, CROs, and MedTech leaders navigating global trials.Key Timestamps00:02 – Introduction to Julio Martinez-Clark and episode overview02:10 – What is GCSA and IAOCR certification?06:00 – Why certification is emerging now: volume, complexity, and patient safety09:42 – Certification structure: site vs. individual requirements13:45 – The Colombian model: First mover in Latin America17:55 – Global harmonization vs. local certification pitfalls21:30 – Measuring ROI of certified vs. non-certified sites26:15 – Future of global site certification and Latin America's role30:00 – Regional differences: speed vs. patient pool in trial site selection36:15 – Final thoughts on FDA trends and LATAM's emerging positionQuotes“It's appalling that in an industry that deals with lives, there was no global standard to certify site or individual competency—until now.”– Julio Martinez-ClarkWhy it matters: This underscores the critical gap in clinical research infrastructure and the urgent need for standards like GCSA.“You can't measure quality without a shared framework. Certification levels the playing field globally.”– Julio Martinez-ClarkWhy it matters: This highlights how global certification allows consistent benchmarking across clinical sites, benefitting sponsors and patients alike.Key TakeawaysGCSA Certification Elevates Site Credibility: Clinical sites with GCSA certification are fast-tracked for sponsor consideration, leading to better trial access and more robust patient recruitment.IAOCR Accreditation Validates Individual Competency: For investigators, coordinators, and site managers, individual accreditation under the UNESCO-backed IAOCR framework offers a portable, verifiable skillset.Latin America Offers Dual Advantages: With rapid recruitment and cost-effective data generation, LATAM is uniquely positioned to lead in globally certified trials—especially Colombia, which already mandates certification.Global Harmonization is Critical: Fragmented local certifications can deter sponsors. A unified global framework like GCSA simplifies compliance, increases efficiency, and builds trust.The FDA Bottleneck May Shift Market Entry: With regulatory delays in the U.S., more medtech firms may turn to Latin America for first-in-human trials and initial commercialization.ReferencesJulio Martinez-Clark on LinkedInBioaccess LATAMIAOCR – International Accreditation Organization for Clinical ResearchEtienne Nichols on LinkedInMedTech 101: What
Bad Bunny, born Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, is dominating headlines and social media this week with a series of bold artistic moves and major cultural statements. Just days ago, he premiered the music video for “NUEVAYoL,” the lead single from his latest album, Debí Tirar Más Fotos, intentionally dropping it on July 4th. This release date was not chosen at random; Bad Bunny's decision reframes American Independence Day through a Puerto Rican and immigrant lens, sparking conversation across the internet. According to Los40, he confirmed the date with a simple “sí” to a fan online, making it clear this was a deliberate act.The “NUEVAYoL” video is already causing waves for its political and cultural impact. Set in New York neighborhoods with deep Puerto Rican roots—like the Bronx and Harlem—the video pays homage to the Nuyorican legacy and features updated references to the classic salsa anthem “Un verano en Nueva York.” But the real headline is its unapologetic pro-immigrant message. About halfway through the video, there's a striking sequence where a Donald Trump impersonation plays over a 1970s-style boombox, with the voice declaring, “I want to apologize to the immigrants in America… this country is nothing without the immigrants. This country is nothing without Mexicans, Dominicans, Puerto Ricans, Colombians, Venezuelans, Cubans.” The visuals reinforce the statement, showing Puerto Rican flags, quinceañera celebrations, and everyday life in New York, ending with the phrase, “Juntos somos más fuertes”—“Together we are stronger.” Outlets like New India Abroad, Harper's Bazaar, and Hits Daily Double agree: this is Bad Bunny's most pointedly political work yet and lands at a time when immigration is hotly debated in the United States, especially with Congress passing new powers for immigration enforcement just days before.Beyond his music video, Bad Bunny is gearing up for a massive summer: his 30-show residency in Puerto Rico, entitled “No Me Quiero Ir de Aquí,” begins July 11 at the Coliseo de Puerto Rico José Miguel Agrelot. This residency is both a homecoming and a love letter to his island roots, and according to Travel Noire, all shows are already sold out. He's also announced a global stadium tour for later in the year, with stops across Latin America, Europe, and Asia.Bad Bunny's new album and recent singles are being praised for their deeply personal and socially conscious direction. The album, Debí Tirar Más Fotos, explores nostalgia, memory, and the immigrant experience. Rolling Stone and Variety report that Bad Bunny feels an obligation to use his platform to speak out on social and political issues, even if it makes some uncomfortable. He's committed to being a voice for Latinx unity, resilience, and pride, as he told Rolling Stone: “I'm going to talk, and whoever doesn't like it doesn't have to listen to me.”Thank you for tuning in to today's update on all things Bad Bunny.

In this episode, I am giving you the “quick and dirty”: what this medicine actually is, why I felt called to it, and how it changed me. Let me be clear: this is sacred. Not a wellness trend. Not a party drug. Not something you DIY with a dude named Chad who ordered a vine online. This is indigenous medicine, with a deep history and lineage that deserves reverence, not appropriation. I chose Rythmia specifically because of their relationship with respected indigenous leaders like Taita Juanito, a Colombian shaman who led one of the most profound nights of my entire experience. They do it right: sacred space, trained facilitators, traditional songs and prayers, deep intention-setting. Ayahuasca is a full-body, full-soul, spiritual experience. Not recreational or for kicks. It's for healing, and if you feel the quiet pull toward it, there might be something there for you. And if you don't? That's okay, too. This path isn't for everyone, and it's not supposed to be. There are so many other transformative modalities to support your healing. Listen to that voice, she knows what's right for you. What you'll hear about in this episode: What Ayahuasca actually is, and the powerful compound it shares with the brain during birth and death The sacredness of honoring the cultures and lineages that carry this medicine (*see below for more cultural context) Why some people feel called to sit with this medicine (and how you'll know if that's you) What happens in ceremony, like, yes, the purging, but also the healing Why this isn't a magic bullet, but a powerful tool for release, rebirth, and reconnection Want more details? I'll be breaking down each ceremony: including the wild fourth night where I thought I was gonna die over in my free private Ketamine Therapy podcast series. Head to andreaowen.com/journey for access. *Now for some more cultural context: cultures and lineages who have used Ayahuasca for generations: Shipibo-Conibo (Peru): Known for their healing songs, icaros, and intricate patterns that come from ayahuasca visions Asháninka (Peru and Brazil): Use ayahuasca as part of spiritual practice and plant dietas Kofan and Siona (Colombia): Taita Juanito (facilitator I experienced at Rythmia) is from this lineage Huni Kuin (Brazil): Use ayahuasca (called nixi pae) in collective healing rituals Tukano and Yawanawá peoples (Brazil/Colombia): Deep ceremonial history with plant medicines, including ayahuasca Resources: Devotion: A 6-Month Private Coaching Experience My Ketamine Therapy Journey secret podcast series Rythmia Retreat Andrea on Instagram @heyandreaowen Episode 666: 365 Happy Bedtime Mantras with Shannon Kaiser Episode 636: Letting Go of What's Holding You Back with Shannon Kaiser ✨Interested in a future Rythmia Ayahuasca retreat with me?

Amado Carrillo Fuentes was one of the most powerful drug traffickers of the 1990s, moving hundreds of tons of cocaine and amassing billions while forging deep ties with Colombian cartels and corrupt Mexican officials. At the height of his power, he controlled the Juárez Cartel and operated a fleet of private jets, outpacing rivals and law enforcement alike. His influence stretched from Mexico to South America and the U.S., making him a near-mythic figure in the drug world—until his sudden death during a secret plastic surgery left more questions than answers.

Follow Atlas Obscura co-founder Dylan Thuras on a quest to discover South America's hidden wonders. From the Last Incan Bridge and the Machu Picchu of the North to the Everlasting Lightning Storm and a statue of a squid fighting a whale the size of the statue of liberty (yes, you read that right), this is an epic ride through Colombia, Venezuela, Bolivia and Peru's weirdest and wildest wonders. The stuff glittering in the shadows that you may never have heard of before, but you'll be desperate to see after. But it's more than that too. When we think of wonders of the world we think of The Grand Canyon, the Great Pyramids. These are undeniably awe-inspiring, but they're obvious. Everyone goes there, and all too often the experience and the destination suffer as result. Atlas Obscura's mission is to open our eyes to the wonders all around us, the bizarre, hilarious, incredible things that inspire our curiosity and make our jaws drop at the amazing world we share. Wonder is a state of mind, they say, not a place; and the more we look for it, the more it becomes a part of who we are. This is a quest to discover South America's hidden wonders, but we may just discover something hidden in ourselves too. “The problem of failing to recognise the magic in the world lies not with the world, but with us; and it is our job to turn ourselves into vessels of recognising that magic.” - Dylan Thuras, co-founder Atlas Obscura Highlights include: · Visit the Last Incan Bridge, an 120-foot long woven grass suspension bridge, straight out of Indiana Jones, which has been re-built every year for more than five centuries. · Stand at the base of Gocta Falls, the most incredible waterfall you've never heard of – twice the size of the Empire State Building. · See Venezuela's Everlasting Lightning Storm, the most electric place on the planet. · Meet the Colombian village who travel by home-made zip-line across the jungle. · Find out about the inspiration for Atlas Obscura, how it went from a childhood love of weird Midwestern roadside attractions to a global phenomenon and New York Times bestseller. · Hear about such crazy historical inventions as the cat piano, the vomiting statue and a language created entirely out of music · Learn how by changing our mindset we can escape the wonder deficit of the modern world and live more meaningful and extraordinary lives Atlas Obscura tells extraordinary stories about hidden places, incredible history, scientific marvels, and gastronomical wonders. www.atlasobscura.com / @atlasobscura Dylan's book, ‘Atlas Obscura: An Explorer's Guide to the World's Hidden Wonders', is a No. 1 bestseller on Amazon and in the New York Times: https://www.atlasobscura.com/unique-gifts/atlas-obscura-book This episode is brought to you by BetterHelp.

When British foreign correspondent Richard McColl purchased, on a whim, a ruined colonial building in the rural Colombian town of Mompós, he imagined a lifestyle of relaxation, with idle afternoons reading the works of Gabriel García Márquez, writing glib observations and enjoying the hypnotic momentum of a Caribbean tropical narrative, swaying in a hammock and the promise of an ice cold beer never far away. He was mistaken. His first restoration yields a hostel, which later becomes a hotel and then spirals into further projects including the restoration of three more colonial houses, experiencing challenges that make him reconsider his upbringing, education and outlook on how he fits into his adopted homeland. With two hotels in Mompós, he experiences the joy of new friendships and a despair over the predictability of guests. With a journalist's eye for a story, McColl navigates the history of Mompós and how its society is a microcosm of today's Colombia, with its feudal system still very much in place, inherent prejudices, stigma surrounding the politics, the people and the past, all coming to the fore.

The business combines Mediterranean and Latin cuisines, reflecting Amarildo's Albanian heritage and his wife's Colombian background. Recently, they expanded their operations by opening a brick-and-mortar establishment called Drunken Hen Eatery and Winery in Mayfair. Although guests can visit Drunken Hen during regular operating hours, your next event can be catered via Byz Empire Catering as well as the Drunken Hen, with a wide variety of foods to choose from. He explains that the Drunken Hen focuses on comfort food with a fine dining twist, and can offer that same level of service through Byz Empire Catering's food truck. Looking forward, Mo will be vending at this year's Summer Ale Festival at the Philadelphia Zoo on July 19th, and Northern Liberty's night market on July 23rd!

En 1983, un artículo de la Revista Semana catalogaba a Pablo Escobar como un “Robin Hood” colombiano. Pasaría muy poco tiempo desde ese entonces para que Escobar se convirtiera en el principal capo de la droga del mundo y uno de los victimarios más sangrientos que ha visto Colombia en su historia. En este segundo episodio del especial del narcotráfico en el país, Alejandro y Luis Guillermo hablan de la segunda etapa del negocio ilegal que ha permeado por décadas la vida política y social del país. Abordan hoy el periodo entre finales de los 70 y la primera etapa de los 80, cuando el cartel de Medellín comenzó a cometer sus primeros actos terroristas y magnicidios.

When the Medellin Metro opened in 1995, the Colombian city had recently been called the “murder capital of the world” due to the high homicide rate caused by Pablo Escobar's drug wars. The network has grown to include a large cable car network which stretches to the neighbourhoods built into the sides of mountains that surround Medellin. It has helped transform the city into a tourist hot-spot – something unimaginable 30 years ago. Tim O'Callaghan has been speaking to Tomas Andreas Elejalde, who is the general manager of the Metro.
