Canada's Ring of Fire: Strategic Mineral Wealth Development — Conrad Black — Black describes the "Ring of Fire," a geographically remote region in northern Ontario approximately 500 miles from Toronto, containing vast strategic mineral deposits including chromium, gold, and other essential industrial metals. Black highlights unprecedented cooperation between Ontario Premier Doug Ford, the Canadian federal government, and First Nationsauthorities to construct a 500-mile transportation corridor enabling extraction and market delivery of these strategic resources essential for global supply chains and technological manufacturing. 1874 GREEENLAND
Political Horseshoe: Convergence of Left and Right on Interventionism — Veronique de Rugy — de Rugy describes the political "horseshoe" theory wherein ideologically opposed left and right political movements converge on preferences for expansive government intervention and managed economy policies. de Rugy documents that while left and right factions blame different villains—wealth inequality versus immigration—both now support agricultural subsidies, protectionist tariffs, and direct state economic intervention. de Rugy emphasizes that both extremes have systematically abandoned classical free-market principles in favor of comprehensive managed economy frameworks emphasizing state control and industrial policy direction. 1910
PREVIEW — Conrad Black — Canada's Strategic "Ring of Fire" Mineral Wealth. Black describes the "Ring of Fire," a geographically remote, mineral-rich region situated approximately 500 miles north of Toronto, containing strategically critical resources including gold, copper, and base metals essential for global manufacturing and technological advancement. Black acknowledges that the region currently lacks transportation and processing infrastructure necessary for large-scale extraction operations. Black emphasizes that elevated global demand for strategic minerals is catalyzing unprecedented cooperation between Canadian government authorities and private sector mining enterprises to develop extraction, processing, and export capabilities satisfying international market requirements and positioning Canada as a critical resource supplier. 1909
A great and fun hour 1.
Guy Kawasaki has had an amazing life and career. After growing up in Hawaii, he went to California for college and later went on to what was then known as Apple Computer where he was a self-described "brand evangelist" during some of their highest growth and most entrepreneurial years. He describes Steve Jobs as being optimistic almost to the point of being delusional, and working for him has inspired Guy to be interested in mold-breaking people ever since, hence the name of his popular podcast, Remarkable People. He has also written 17 books on a variety of subjects, his latest being Wiser Guy, which was released earlier this year. Chapters: 00:00 Welcome to Blue Sky Bill Burke introduces Guy Kawasaki as a remarkable guest on Blue Sky, highlighting Guy's background as chief evangelist at Apple and Canva, and his extensive writing. Guy shares his preference for being a podcast guest due to less prep work, contrasting with the host's five-hour preparation time. 03:10 From Hawaii to Stanford Guy recounts his childhood in Kalihi Valley, a lower-middle-income part of Hawaii, and how a public school teacher's advice led him to a private school, then Stanford. He describes feeling immediately at home at Stanford in 1972, despite it being pre-tech, and the campus's amazing atmosphere. 06:17 Apple, Steve Jobs & the 1984 Ad Guy discusses his two stints at Apple, particularly his time in the Macintosh division under Steve Jobs from 1983 to 1987. He reveals the Macintosh team's mission to preserve democracy and freedom through computing and shares the behind-the-scenes story of the iconic 1984 Super Bowl ad, which the board initially wanted to pull. 11:49 Evangelizing Apple & Sales Skills Guy details how Apple evangelized its new operating system in the 1980s through fervor rather than just money, contrasting with the corporate image of IBM. He also shares his 'checkered past' of dropping out of medical, dental, and law school, leading him to an MBA and invaluable sales experience in the jewelry business, which he considers essential. 17:02 Steve Jobs: Visionary & Demanding Guy describes working for Steve Jobs as the most formative experience of his career, calling Jobs a visionary and passionate, albeit demanding and intimidating, leader. He emphasizes that Jobs was a 'mission-driven egoist' who cared only about making the best computer, disregarding personal biases like race or gender. 23:01 Remarkable People Podcast Origins Guy explains his decision to start the 'Remarkable People' podcast, initially inspired by the lucrative ad model of another podcaster, and his realization that his access to remarkable individuals and business experience uniquely positioned him. He highlights the strategic advantage of having prominent guests like Jane Goodall to attract others. 30:08 Jane Goodall: A Source of Hope Guy recounts his personal connection to Jane Goodall, stemming from a TEDx interview, and how she became his first podcast guest. He describes her as the most remarkable person he's interviewed, embodying hope and tireless dedication to her cause, even declining a rest offer at 90 due to 'too much to do.' 36:30 Optimism as a Strategic Advantage Guy discusses optimism as a strategic advantage, asserting that it's crucial for achieving anything significant, combining realism with the belief that challenges can be overcome. He shares his experiences of taking up ice hockey at 44 and surfing at 60, attributing it to a 'growth mindset' and the belief that one is never too old to learn new things.
US Designates Muslim Brotherhood Branches and Ideological Threat — John Batchelor, Bill Roggio, Edmund Fitton-Brown — Fitton-Brown describes the Muslim Brotherhood (Ikhwan) as a secretive, transnational organization with deliberately decentralized hierarchical structure designed to obscure leadership and maintain operational security. Fitton-Brown articulates the organization's long-term strategic objective: establishment of a global Islamic caliphatestructure superseding nation-states. Batchelor reports that the US formally designated violent Muslim Brotherhoodaffiliates operating in Lebanon, Jordan, and Egypt as terrorist organizations. Roggio notes conspicuously that Turkishand Qatari Muslim Brotherhood branches were omitted from designation, likely because those nations are viewed as strategically important US policy facilitators requiring diplomatic accommodation. 1900 ISTANBUL POST OFFICE
Brussels Attempts Deregulation — Joseph Sternberg — Sternberg describes the European Union's complex multi-institutional governance structure and recent tentative moves toward deregulation, particularly regarding climate reporting requirements and digital technology regulations. Sternberg argues that Brussels officials are gradually acknowledging that excessive regulatory frameworks systematically damage economic competitiveness and drive entrepreneurs from European jurisdictions toward more favorable regulatory environments. Sternberg emphasizes that these modest deregulatory reforms confront a race against accelerating economic decline, requiring more aggressive structural reforms to restore European competitiveness relative to American and Chinese competitors. 1906 BRUSSELS
The day before Thanksgiving was the real celebration for an American family living in the occupied West Bank. Mohammed Ibrahim was released after nearly 10 months in an Israeli prison.

Topics We Cover: 00:00 – New data from Harvard/Mass General may classify nearly 70% of adults as having obesity 03:00 – A new oral triple agonist shows record-setting absorption rates 07:00 – Fractal Health's Revita procedure: weight maintenance after stopping GLP-1s 12:00 – Zepbound vial prices drop (full breakdown by dose) 16:00 – Dave's personal experience switching off Mounjaro and intense hunger return 22:00 – Novo Nordisk's EVOKE/EVOKE+ Alzheimer's trial: what the data really means 29:00 – Why GLP-1 neurological research is just getting started 33:00 – Updates on access, partners, and major news coming soon for Medicare patients If you're on Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound, Saxenda, Trulicity, or compounded versions, this episode gives you the insight and context you need to have more competent and confident conversations with your doctor. Bullet Point Summary of the Podcast Episode New Obesity Measurement Data (Harvard/Mass General Study) Harvard and Mass General propose adding waist circumference to BMI to better diagnose obesity. Traditional BMI misses key factors like muscle mass and body composition. Using the updated measure, Americans classified as obese jumps from ~43% to almost 69%. This means 7 out of 10 U.S. adults would now qualify as having the disease of obesity. Dave notes this validates many people who “feel” metabolically unwell despite a “normal” BMI. Reinforces his claim that “most people should be talking to their doctors about GLP-1s.” New Oral Triple Agonist (Ascletis – ASC41/ASC? Molecule) From Ascletis (A-S-C-L-E-T-I-S), developing an oral triple agonist targeting: GLP-1 GIP Glucagon Similar in mechanism to retatrutide, expected around 2027. Preclinical (animal) data show stunning results: Oral bioavailability of 4.2% 9× higher than tirzepatide 30× higher than oral semaglutide 6× higher than oral retatrutide 57× greater drug exposure than oral retatrutide Half-life ~56 hours Stronger receptor activation than retatrutide in vitro Suggests potential for the first powerful oral triple agonist—worth watching. ️ 3. Discussion of the Gray Market / TikTok Experience Dave briefly recounts losing his TikTok account and landing in an algorithm filled with teenagers promoting gray-market “retatrutide.” Expresses concern over unregulated peptide sales, especially to minors. Fractal Health's New Data – Weight Maintenance After Stopping GLP-1s New results from the Reveal One study (Fractal Health). Participants: lost 24% of body weight on GLP-1s → stopped injections → got one Revita procedure. At 6 months post-GLP-1 discontinuation: Weight changed only 1.5% (vs. ~10% regain in typical off-drug trials) HbA1c barely shifted Safety profile clean Suggests possible long-term weight maintenance without injections through gut mucosal re-lining. Dave describes his own recent attempt to switch drugs and significant hunger return. Food Noise & Biologic Hunger Dave discusses how stopping Mounjaro caused terrifying, primal hunger. Describes the distinction between: Food noise (brain-based thoughts) Hunger signals (biological/animalistic) Reinforces why many patients cannot maintain weight loss without support. Zepbound (Tirzepatide) Cash-Pay Price Reductions Eli Lilly drops cash-pay vial pricing: 2.5 mg: $349 → $299 5 mg: $499 → $399 7.5–15 mg: $499 → $449 Community feedback (informal poll): Most say still too high to leave compounded versions. Many would switch to branded if price hit $200–$300. Dave notes the Most Favored Nations agreement will push GLP-1 prices toward $250/month within 24 months. Alzheimer's Study (Novo Nordisk – EVOKE & EVOKE+) Oral semaglutide (Rybelsus, 14 mg) did not slow Alzheimer's clinical progression. Biomarkers improved but daily function and cognitive decline did not improve vs placebo. Important context: Oral Rybelsus is a weak form of semaglutide; stronger versions (like Wegovy 2.4 mg or upcoming high-dose oral Wegovy) not tested. Weight loss is not desirable in Alzheimer's patients, influencing drug selection. Dave emphasizes: This was a nearly $700M trial and an act of scientific courage. This is NOT the end of GLP-1 Alzheimer's research. Future molecules may target neurological pathways without suppressing appetite. Mentions Lilly's brenipatide, a GIP receptor agonist being developed for: Addiction Opioid dependency Possibly asthma ️ 8. Access, Cost, and Patient Empowerment Highlights Shed as a partner offering telehealth GLP-1 access. Notes many patients hide GLP-1 use from their primary care doctors. Reinforces OTP's mission: better, more honest conversations with clinicians. Shapa (Numberless Scale) & Dave's Personal Update Dave explains how the Shapa numberless scale helped him stay engaged during weight fluctuations. Finds stepping on “zones” (green/gray/blue) less emotionally damaging than numbers. Closing Notes Promises upcoming Eli Lilly savings card update.

7/8. The Snowy Egret, The Emperor Penguin, and the Climate Canary — Steven Moss — Moss describes the beautiful Snowy Egret, nearly driven to extinction during 19th-century "plumage wars," when its feathers, priced equivalently to gold, were harvested for women's millinery fashion. Moss emphasizes that the resulting systemic cruelty toward birds catalyzed women to establish conservation organizations including the Audubon Society. Moss identifies climate change as the current existential threat, exemplified by the Emperor Penguin, facing projected 98% extinction by 2100 due to habitat loss from sea ice decline. Moss characterizes the penguin, alongside migratory warblers affected by phenological mismatches with earlier insect emergence, as a "miner's canary" providing early warning of impending ecological and climate catastrophe confronting humanity. 1914
In this chilling Bigfoot Society episode, a Pennsylvania witness comes forward with a life-changing encounter deep in the woods near Alden Reservoir, Tomko Road, and Davis Street in the Scranton–Wilkes-Barre area. Frank recounts the unforgettable night he and his friends were camping at a spot they simply called “The Spot.” What began as a normal weekend in the Northeastern Pennsylvania mountains quickly turned terrifying when they experienced strange sounds, trees pulled across trails, and an encounter with something far larger—and far more intelligent—than anything they expected.Frank shares the exact locations tied to his experience, including Witkis Villa, Holly Street, and the surrounding ridgelines and creek areas. He also reveals unsettling local lore about mysterious small creatures said to inhabit the woods, and the disturbing reaction of longtime mountain residents when he accidentally spoke an unfamiliar word linked to these legends.If you're interested in real Sasquatch encounters, Bigfoot sightings in Pennsylvania, Appalachian creature stories, or unexplained wilderness phenomena, this episode dives deep into a firsthand account that still haunts the witness decades later.
PREVIEW — David Rooney — Rolls-Royce Engines and the 1919 Transatlantic Flight. Rooney describes the 1919 Atlantic crossing attempt, which definitively established Rolls-Royce's reputation as the premier manufacturer of aircraft engines. The company's Eagle and Falcon engines proved vital because they could sustain continuous operation for over 10 hours without requiring refurbishment or maintenance, making them ideally suited for the demanding 20-hour transatlantic journeY. 1921

Falcon 9 Full Thrust: Densification and Barge Landings. Eric Berger describes how, following a 2015 failure, SpaceX developed the Falcon 9 Full Thrust, version 3.0/4.0. Driven by the Mars vision, they adopted densification—chilling liquid oxygen to boost density and increase payload efficiency by 10 to 12 percent. Crucially, they focused on landing the booster vertically on a moving barge, skipping steps in the reusability process. This challenge required redesigned Merlin engines and advanced avionics, leading to several learning failures as they tried to figure out how best to line up the rocket with the ship. Guest: Eric Berger.
Xi Jinping's Exile and Family Betrayal. Joseph Turigian describes how political torment extended to Xi Zhongxun's family, forcing Xi Jinping's mother to denounce her teenage son when he fled incarceration, a difficult moral judgment made to protect the remaining siblings. During the Cultural Revolution, Xi Jinping was exiled to the countryside near Yanan, a sacred site of Chinese Communist Party history. This mass "sending down" of youth was intended to toughen them up and instill revolutionary spirit, becoming a deeply formative experience for Xi Jinping. Xi Zhongxun spent years in prison writing unanswered, plaintive letters seeking relief and reconsideration from the leadership. Guest: Joseph Turigian. 906 PEKING
Craig Unger describes his high-profile investigation at Newsweek, which surprisingly resulted in three articles denying the October Surprise occurred, a result Unger called a great disgrace in the history of American journalism. The subsequent Congressional investigation, led by Lee Hamilton, was dismissed by Unger as a complete whitewash that accepted weak alibis for Bill Casey. Unger was warned by investigative legend Seymour Hersh that he would be crushed if he continued his pursuit. Unger's colleague, Bob Perry, later found a massive archive of 23 gigabytes of documents containing secrets relevant to the investigation, abandoned in cardboard boxes in a former ladies' room under a tampon dispenser in a House office building. Guest: Craig Unger.
Young Activists Plan the Audacious Pan-European Picnic. Matthew Longo describes how in late June 1989, young activists Fedins and Maria in Debrecen conceived an audacious plan to throw a protest party—The Picnic—at the Iron Curtain near Sopron. They aimed to challenge communism and celebrate freedom. Though the Curtain was a deadly "death zone," not a simple fence, they secured a unique one-time crossing, allowing Austrians to join the Hungarians. Guest: Matthew Longo.
Cold Antarctic Air Collides with Tropical Front, Bringing Flash Flooding and Cyclone Warnings to East Coast.Jeremy Zakis describes severe weather on the Australian East Coast due to a clash between bitter cold Antarctic air and a dense tropical air mass colliding over land. This has caused rapid thunderstorms, flash flooding, and storm damage from Victoria up to Queensland. The Bureau of Meteorology now forecasts at least one major tropical cyclone for the Brisbane coastline later this year. Guest: Jeremy Zakis.
Paul Gregory describes his observations during the summer of 1962 while taking Russian lessons from Marina, noting Lee and Marina's poverty; Marina even lacked a baby carriage for infant June. Lee presented himself as an intellectual but was secretive about his desertion to the Soviet Union. Both Lee and Marina expressed admiration for President Kennedy, whose photo was on the only book they owned. At a dinner with the Dallas Russians, Lee was confronted by Anna Miller about deserting America for the Soviet Union, reacting with controlled rage that highlighted his discomfort. This encounter caused George Buha, the community leader, to decide the Russians must help Marina, whose isolation and Lee's abusiveness became apparent. Guest: Paul Gregory. 1963
Paul Gregory describes events on November 23rd when Margarite Oswald called Pete Gregory seeking shelter after she and Marina were essentially abducted by Life magazine. Pete notified Secret Service agent Mike Howard, who moved Marina, Margarite, and the two babies to the Six Flags Inn for interrogation. Margarite immediately began campaigning, demanding her "hero" son be rehabilitated as an innocent CIA/FBI agent. Pete's presence was vital, as Marina feared the Secret Service were the KGB. A crucial interrogation point was the famous photo of Lee with his rifle; Marina was reluctant to confess she took it, fearing reprisal. Upon hearing Lee was dead, Margarite demanded burial at Arlington National Cemetery. Guest: Paul Gregory.
Craig Unger describes his 2014 visit to Iran's "Den of Spies" embassy museum, where he interviewed Moshen Rafi Duce, Iran's arms procurement head, who seemingly made an accidental admission about meeting "the Republicans." Former Iranian president Abolhassan Banisadr confirmed the October Surprise was a double coup d'état, destabilizing both the US and moderate Iranian elements. The timing of the hostage release confirms a prior deal: they were freed only three minutes after Ronald Reagan took the oath of office on January 20, 1981. This event, Unger concludes, fits a pattern of Republican reliance on adversarial nations to intervene in US elections. Guest: Craig Unger. Retry

The Modern Marine Corps: MEUs, Amphibious Ship Shortages, and the Role in East Asia. Colonel Grant Newsham discusses the Marine Corps, celebrating its 250th birthday and historic legacy at Belleau Wood. Newsham describes the Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU) as a flexible force of about 2,000 Marines aboard amphibious ships, capable of missions from humanitarian aid to combat. A critical challenge is the Navy's low prioritization of amphibious ships, leading to a deployment shortage. In East Asia, Marines are expected to seize key terrain and use long-range precision weapons to control maritime territory, though prioritizing missile units has reduced overall mission versatility. 1920 JOHN CARTER ON MARS

Ancestral Native American Dispersal and Admixture 3. Meltzer describes the dispersal of the first peoples into the Americas, explaining that ancestral Native Americans likely arrived first and made it south of the ice sheets, splitting into Northern and Southern groups with the Southern group dispersing rapidly toward Tierra del Fuego. This rapid dispersal into completely unknown, people-free land suggests dogs—whose genomic history matches human travel—were likely part of their cultural repertoire for defense and hunting. Genomic data reveals that ancient groups later became isolated, developing distinctive genetic markers before experiencing later admixture as mobility increased, and critically shows no ancestral relationship between these first Americans and European, Ainu, or Polynesian populations.

Severe storms and reported nighttime funnels hit Queensland. The rapid growth of foliage due to this erratic weather is a dangerous omen, potentially creating extra fuel for future summer fires.

This new supply is also fundamentally transforming the European energy landscape, where Russian dominance has been eliminated. Simultaneously, sanctions are forcing major Russian companies like Rosneft and Lukoil into "fire sales" of assets outside Russia at steep discounts.
