La découverte d'Ötzi en 1991, une momie préhistorique exhumée dans les Dolomites italiennes, chamboule les certitudes : la haute montagne, que l'on croyait déserte, était bel et bien fréquentée par l'homme. En France, l'archéologie alpine connaît alors un nouvel élan. Florence Mocci, Archéologue CNRS au Centre Camille Jullian, choisit le massif des Écrins comme terrain d'exploration, sillonnant les hauteurs et scrutant chaque replat pour retrouver les traces des premiers montagnards et faire parler une histoire longtemps enfouie sous les glaces.Abonnez-vous à notre newsletter pour ne louper aucun épisode ➡️

This week, Matt and Ali have the pleasure of speaking with Audrée Lafrenière. Audrée is a coach, athlete, and dedicated lover of our sport and culture. You may know her best from the popular trail-running video series that Audrée and her partner, Jeff Pelleier, create.

Giunta nel 2026 alla sua sedicesima edizione, la Hero Sudtirol Dolomites è la maratona di mountain-bike più dura al mondo, organizzata con partenza da Selva Valgardena e disegnata al cospetto delle Dolomiti. Tre percorsi (86 – 71 – 60km) considerati tra i più duri e allo stesso tempo affascinanti, sui cui si sono confrontati poche settimane fa atlete e atleti di 54 Paesi. Senza dimentica la prova non agonistica che ha chiuso il fine settimana di pedalate, coinvolgendo centinaia e centinaia di appassionati amatori. Ma cosa spinge ad affrontare tali prove di resistenza? E quali messaggi lanciano queste prove a pedali nel cuore di alcune delle montagne più belle del pianeta? Ne parliamo oggi con due miti della Hero Sudtirol Dolomites, il colombiano Leandro Paez (vincitore di ben otto edizioni!) e l’italiana Sandra Mairhofer, insieme al campione paralimpico di ciclismo Fabio Radrizzani.olympia@radio24.it

(13)Headline: Latin America's Shift Toward Democratic Capitalism Guest: Conrad Black Conrad Black observes a "tidal wave" of reform across South America as nations reject left-wing "gangster" governments in favor of market economies.

(14)Headline: SETI Protocols and the Scientific Search for Extraterrestrial Life Guest: Michael Garrett Michael Garrett introduces updated SETI protocols for handling potential contact with extraterrestrial intelligence. The guidelines emphasize the scientific method and verification to avoid false alarms.

Join me for a fascinating conversation with Karoline Walch, fifth-generation owner of the renowned Elena Walch Winery in Alto Adige, one of Italy's most distinctive and exciting wine regions. Nestled among the dramatic peaks of the Dolomites, Alto Adige is a place where Italian and Austrian influences blend seamlessly, creating a unique culture, cuisine, and wine tradition unlike anywhere else in Italy. Karoline shares the remarkable story of how her mother, Elena Walch, an architect from Milan, helped transform a family winery and became one of the pioneers behind Alto Adige's quality wine revolution. We explore the estate's celebrated single vineyards, Castel Ringberg and Kastelaz, discuss why Alto Adige produces such exceptional Pinot Grigio and Gewürztraminer, and learn how sustainability guides every aspect of the winery's work. Along the way, Karoline offers insights into growing up among the vineyards, working alongside her sister Julia as the fifth generation of the family, and welcoming visitors to experience one of Italy's most beautiful wine destinations. Whether you're passionate about Italian wine, dreaming of a trip to Alto Adige, or simply enjoy stories of family businesses built on vision and dedication, this episode offers an engaging look inside one of Italy's most respected wine estates.

While Caroline is honeymooning in the Dolomites, Lily Shimbashi, founder of Sportsish, joins us to break down the most important news in sports and pop culture. Madison Square Garden is on our minds this week – and it's not just because the Knicks lost at home. Rumor has it that Taylor Swift's wedding will take place at the iconic New York City arena on July 3. Are we buying it? No. What's are people *actually* buying when it comes to the pop star? The literal chair she sat on during the Cav's Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Finals. We hate it here too.

There are 3 pieces of God's armor we are to “put on”. 1. The belt of truth. 2. The breastplate of righteousness. 3. The shoes of peace. In getting dressed for the unseen spiritual battle, the final thing we put on are our shoes. And think about it, you're not ready to leave if you don't have your shoes on. My husband knows I'm not really walking out the door if my shoes aren't on. My shoes are the sign I'm really ready and we're going … until then, I'm not really going anywhere. God has places for you to go. A stand you are to take. Purposes you are to fulfill. Good plans you are to walk in. But, without your shoes, you're not really ready to go with him. The soldier's shoes were a valuable piece of their armor. Remember in these days, they were foot soldiers. They weren't riding around in tanks and helicopters. They were marching in, climbing up, standing ground. In military battles of these days, the army who had the best battle shoes was set apart. There's a story of an army who won countless victories because they put nails in their shoes, creating the first cleats. They could climb what no other army could climb. As women, we know shoes make or break the outfit – but in battle, shoes can make or break the victory. So Paul says in Ephesians 6:15, “For shoes, put on the peace that comes from the Good News so that you will be fully prepared.” Without your shoes, you're not ready. With the wrong shoes, you're not winning. Barefoot, you're injured. The shoes in the Armor of God are specifically the PEACE that comes from the Good News. Sounds a little fruity doesn't it? That's sweet – but does it really mean anything to you? I'll be honest – that just never meant anything to me at all – until today. Until I really studied what Paul is saying. Now I get it, and I'm so excited to share it with you. Peace – what's your image of God's peace? Someone once asked 2 very famous painters to each paint a picture of God's peace. One painted the image of a beautiful, calm, serene lake in the most peaceful setting you could imagine. It's basically where I am right now – North Italy's Dolomite mountains. The lakes here are the deepest, calmest blue, fully protected by stunning mountains that reach straight up in the sky. Such calm. Such peace. That was one artist's painting. But the other artist paints the ocean. Not calm water, but the ocean in a violent storm. Massive waves crashing in the fierce winds. Lightening flashing in the sky. And in the very bottom corner of the painting was a small bird, totally protected from the storm, standing on a rock with a solitary beam of light shining on it. If there was a soundtrack to the painting it was the bird singing his completely unbothered song of perfect peace in the midst of that raging storm. Both are pictures of peace. One is a picture of peaceful circumstances – the other is a picture of the power of God's peace. God doesn't promise peaceful circumstances, in fact Jesus warns us of the oppoisite – “in this world you will have trouble”. But God does promise us the power of his peace – the unshakable knowing he is with you, he sees you, and he is in control. We're so quick to assume only the good days contain God's peace, but you've never experienced God's peace on the most extreme level until you're in the middle of something that demands you absolutely freak out, but instead you have an unspeakable peace within. With this peace you're not rendered incapable, you're strengthened in the battle. My friend, if you find yourself currently in a battle, God has peace available for you. And his word isn't just offering it to you as an option, his word is telling you, “PUT THIS ON!” But how? How do you put on God's peace? Thank God, his word actually tells us. We're not left to guess and wonder. It's clear. Philippians 4: 6-7. First, there is an offer you have to REFUSE to make room for God's offer of peace. If you don't refuse it, there will simply be no space for peace in you. What is the offer you have to refuse? Worry. Here's precisely what God's word says, “Don't worry about anything; instead pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. THEN you will experience God's peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.” This is a formula and a process. First you refuse worry. Worry is always in the offering. There's always something to worry about, right? But you must turn away from it. Turn it off. Resist it. Evict it. Absolutely take a stand against worry. You know what we often do instead? We make excuses for it. “Oh, it's just who I am. I'm a worrier. I always have been.” That's the equivalent of saying, “Oh, I'm just muddy, it's just who I am. I go out and roll around in the mud so I'm always muddy. I always have been.” ALL WHILE YOU COULD CHOOSE TO TAKE A SHOWER! If you're a worrier, there's something you can do that's the equivalent of a shower for a muddy person – PRAYER. And just as you have to take a shower again and again, you must pray again and again. The only way you refuse worry is to talk to God about it. Push it right over to God and let him have it. Tell him what you need. Thank him for everything he has already done for you. That's your part of the equation. Then, God does his part. His part is filling you with PEACE. Peace that doesn't make sense. Peace like the little white bird sitting in a beam of light during a furious storm on the ocean, just singing his happy song. I don't care how much you worry or how long you've been worrying, peace is available to you. But my sister, you always have to choose it. Now you may think your worrying is harmless, but it's not. Without God's peace, you're facing a battle with no shoes on. Without your shoes you're simply NOT READY!!!!! Now here's where this gets really really really good. This is the part you may not have ever understood before and you're going to have a little light bulb go off. Paul says these shoes of peace come from the Good News. What is the Good News? It's literally the message of Jesus. It's the salvation story of God sending his own son to die for you so that you might be saved. It's the promise of his Holy Spirit dwelling in you offering what you could never manufacture for yourself. It's all this GOOD NEWS, not bad news that applies directly to our lives because of Jesus. Good, good, good news. Shoes of peace from this Good News of Jesus. And here's why this is important in battle – GET READY … Your enemy, the devil, is always going to try and convince you that God is against you, that God doesn't love you, that God is too busy for you, angry at you, distant from you. The devil continually tries to convince you that every little bad thing, and certainly every big bad thing, that happens in your life is proof of God's absence, God's distance, or God's disapproval of you. You've heard it and felt it before. You've questioned why God would allow this to happen to your family and you start feeling like God doesn't care about your family. Like he's too busy for you. Like he doesn't hear your prayers. Like he's always out to take things from you. Like he's just against you. The more you hear it and the more you feel it, the more dark your thoughts become, the more alone you feel, and the more hopeless the future looks. And that's precisely what happens if you don't have your shoes on. Your shoes of peace from the Good News know exactly who Jesus is, what Jesus did, and what he has promised. And just like a pair of cleats can dig in and hold your ground, KNOWING the GOOD News can help you stand firm when every doubt comes to rock you. The devil wants to remind of you all the bad news, but Jesus says, “I've GOT GOOD NEWS!” Feel the peace in that! The shoes of peace tell you even when bad things have happened, “GOD USES ALL THINGS TOGETHER FOR GOOD”. The shoes of peace tell you even when the storm rages that, “YOUR GOD CONTROLS THE WINDS AND THE WAVES.” The shoes of peace tell you when everything falls apart that, “GOD HOLDS IT ALL IN HIS HANDS AND NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE WITH HIM.” The Good News fills us with peace when the battle rages. And in peace, we stand, We don't run. We don't panic. We don't worry. We stand firm. Girl, put your shoes on and dig in! Dig in to God's promises over you and refuse to back down. Refuse to be shaken. Refuse to give in to worry. His promises will fill you with peace so you can stand through the storm and come out the other side. Jesus made us a promise of HIS PEACE. His peace that would hold us steady. His peace that would guide us. His peace that would fill us in ways that don't make sense. But do you know precisely WHEN he promised us this peace? Jesus promised us that peace on the edge of his own horrific storm. On the very night one of his very best friends would betray him – on the night he would be arrested – on the night before he was to bear the sin of the entire world on the cross, on the edge of the greatest storm all creation had ever seen, Jesus promised us his own peace. John 14:27, “I am leaving you with a gift – peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don't be troubled or afraid.” Jesus had immeasurable peace, and he offers us that same peace. But it's always up to us to PUT IT ON. With peace, you are ready for battle. With peace you can stand on God's promises and not worry. With peace as shoes, you can dig in with cleats and stand your ground regardless of circumstances. With peace as shoes, you can climb any mountain and overcome the obstacles in your way. You have to choose what you're walking in – Peace or worry. Worry will never win the battle. Peace already has.

"I was drawn to the recording because the sound of the mowers felt like spring. I enjoyed the noise of the mowers and wanted to work with it. The mowers cut in an out, processed by my modular synth, with a noisy drone in the background from the synth. Some tape noise shows up too. Recorded in Ottawa, May 30 2026 (Drone Day!). Mixed and mastered the next day. Pls wear headphones, there's some funky stereo stuff going on." Strimmers in the Dolomites reimagined by Josh Yazbeck.

Four or five people work with lawnmowers and strimmers around the restoration of a cabin in the Dolomites - the sound travels wide and far, and reverberates off the rock faces to give a very particular mountain soundscape of work.Recorded in the Dolomites, July 2025 by Cities and Memory. 

Johan Bruyneel and Spencer Martin break down Sepp Kuss' incredible stage win on the Queen Stage of the Giro d'Italia, with his teammate and race leader Jonas Vingegaard easily defending his lead behind. They break down how Kuss turned things around, what to make of Derek Gee's impressive day up the road, and where the overall podium stands now, before previewing tomorrow's Stage 20, another hard mountain stage, and the last chance for the GC contenders to shape the overall classification.

Stage 19 of the 2026 Giro d'Italia took the race deep into the Dolomites, and Visma looked so in control that they were comfortable sending Sep Kuss up the road in the breakaway. A clear sign of just how confident they are in the General Classification battle. Elsewhere, it was a tougher day. Jhonatan Narváez and Ethan Vernon both abandoned the race, while EF Education-EasyPost made the difficult decision to withdraw Michael Valgren and James Shaw from the Giro.

Today's guest is an adventurer, filmmaker, writer and one of the most extraordinary travel storytellers of her generation.Eva zu Beck's life reads like something from a film. She was Oxford-educated, working in travel media, married, successful, and living the kind of polished, high-achieving life so many people are told to want. But behind the scenes, she knew something wasn't right. So she walked away from it all. The marriage, the career, the security, the neatly mapped-out future, and bought a one-way ticket to Nepal.Over the past nine years, Eva has travelled almost constantly, often to some of the wildest, most remote and most misunderstood places on earth. She has crossed the Mongolian wilderness on horseback, travelled through the mountains of Pakistan living alongside local families, spent months on the otherworldly island of Socotra in Yemen during lockdown, and driven her old Land Rover Defender, Odyssey, from Mexico through Central America and the United States, all the way to the northernmost point of Alaska.You're going to love this one guys.Destination recap:Holly - Forestis, Dolomites, ItalyCarpathian Mountains, PolandMarrakech, MoroccoNepalMongoliaUlaanbaatar, MongoliaGobi Desert, MongoliaPakistanNorthern Pakistan, PakistanHimalayas, PakistanKarakoram Mountains, PakistanArabian Sea, PakistanUnited StatesMontana, United StatesAlaska, United StatesMexicoDalton Highway, United StatesDeadhorse, United StatesRomaniaCarpathian Mountains, RomaniaTransylvania, RomaniaTransalpina, RomaniaMaramureș, RomaniaSocotra, YemenCentral AsiaRussiaCentral AfricaSaharaNorthern Canada, CanadaPatagonia, Argentina and ChileEva's new book, The Wilder Way, is out now, and if you loved this conversation, I think you'll absolutely love the book too.With thanks to...Richard Haworth - Discover their luxury hotel-quality bedding, towels and table linen at Richard Haworth At HomeAirbnb - Your home might be worth more than you think.

In November 1927, a young Italian racer named Tullio Campagnolo stood freezing on a mountain pass in the Dolomites, unable to change gear because his hands were too cold to loosen his wheel nuts. That moment changed cycling forever. Campagnolo would go on to invent the quick-release skewer, pioneer the modern derailleur, and build the components that carried legends like Coppi, Merckx, Hinault, Pantani, and Pogačar to victory. For decades, Campagnolo was cycling. So how did the company that defined the sport end up with zero teams in the 2026 WorldTour? This is the story of Campagnolo — and how greatness slowly lost the race.One of the tools you will have heard Anthony chat about in this podcast is Training Peaks.

Ciao a tutti ! Grand Plateau se met au rose pour la 109ème édition du Giro d'Italia. Le Tour d'Italie s'élance ce vendredi de Bulgarie pour trois semaines de course jusqu'à Rome le 31 mai prochain. Un favori écrasant, Jonas Vingegaard. On vous en a parlé en début de semaine. Aujourd'hui on va disséquer ce parcours : trois jours dans les Balkans avant de rejoindre la Calabre. Un premier test au Blockhaus, la montée légendaire des Abruzzes. Un long chrono individuel de 40 km. Les deux dernières semaines se déroulent dans le nord du pays : dans les Alpes et Dolomites avant de parader dans la ville éternelle.   Avec Georges Quirino, Pierre Koetschet et François de la Taille.     Production : Roxanne Lacuska

Le premier Grand Tour de la saison est là. Dès ce vendredi, départ de la 109ème édition du Giro d'Italia qui va s'élancer hors d'Italie pour la 16ème fois : cette fois-ci ce sera de Bulgarie pour trois jours. Direction ensuite le sud de la botte pour attaquer les cimes des Abruzzes avant les Apennins, les Alpes dans la vallée d'Aoste. Les coureurs finiront dans les Dolomites. Y aura-t-il de la neige ? De la pluie ? Un Giro peut être plus léger que d'habitude, sans Stelvio, ni Zoncolan, avec un chrono tout plat de 42 km en plein milieu et surtout un immense favori au milieu d'une cascade de forfaits de dernière minute. Avec Georges Quirino, Christophe Cessieux, Pierre Koetschet et Jérôme Coppel   Production : Roxanne Lacuska Réalisation : Loïc Peltier

Une jeune femme exceptionnelle est l'invitée de Pierre-Édouard Deldique dans ce nouveau numéro d'Idées. Née en Albanie, professeure de théorie politique à la London School of Economics, Lea Ypi est en effet considérée comme une des figures montantes de la vie intellectuelle en Europe. Dans le magazine qui interroge celles et ceux qui pensent le monde, cette intellectuelle de haut-vol parle à la fois de son travail de philosophe, de ses cours au Collège de France et de son roman intitulé Indignité, publié chez Calmann-Levy. Ce roman est à la fois une enquête familiale, une traversée du XXe siècle dans les Balkans, une réflexion sur l'identité, et une méditation sur la dignité humaine face aux régimes politiques. Le livre s'ouvre sur la diffusion sur les réseaux sociaux, d'une photographie de 1941 montrant la grand‑mère de l'auteure, Léman, souriante en lune de miel dans les Dolomites, alors que l'Albanie subissait l'occupation fasciste. Cette image, devenue virale, a provoqué un flot d'accusations et de jugements moraux. À tel point que Lea Ypi a entrepris de comprendre qui était réellement cette grand-mère au caractère bien trempé. Le roman est à la fois une reconstitution de la vie de Léman (où l'imaginaire joue son rôle, souligne-t-elle dans l'émission) née en 1918 à Salonique, issue d'une famille albanaise de l'aristocratie ottomane. Sa vie traverse la chute de l'Empire ottoman, la monarchie du roi Zog, le fascisme, le nazisme, la dictature communiste d'Enver Hoxha, la transition post‑communiste. Quel parcours ! Sa vie reflète pour le moins les profondes transformations politiques qui ont façonné l'Europe du Sud‑Est. Cette véritable saga s'avère aussi une enquête dans les archives d'État, où Lea Ypi a découvert rapports d'informateurs, dossiers de surveillance et documents incomplets. Ces archives, politisées et parfois trompeuses, révèlent autant qu'elles dissimulent. Elles démontrent en tout cas à quel point la surveillance policière sévissait sous l'ère communiste. Le roman montre ainsi la difficulté de reconstruire une vérité historique, celle qui est au cœur de la réflexion de Lea Ypi, dans un pays où l'amnésie a longtemps prévalu. Le titre de cette belle histoire renvoie à un thème central : la dignité humaine comme valeur menacée par les systèmes politiques. Léman est tour à tour considérée comme aristocrate ottomane, suspecte sous le communisme, puis traîtresse supposée dans l'Albanie contemporaine.  « Elle personnifie la responsabilité morale », dit notre invitée ce dimanche. Selon elle, ce récit romancé évoque la responsabilité morale dans des situations exceptionnelles, où les choix individuels sont en quelque sorte dictés par la violence des faits historiques. Dans Indignité et au cours de ce numéro d'Idées, notre spécialiste de philosophie politique montre que la vérité historique est fragile. Ne se construit-elle pas entre documents, souvenirs et interprétations ? De plus, l'auteure s'interroge au micro : « qui a le droit de raconter une vie ? ». Cette question donne au roman une dimension philosophique. Dans son « autre vie » , Lea Ypi, spécialiste de Kant, mène une réflexion sur « l'idée de socialisme moral ». Elle la détaille dans une série de leçons au Collège de France que je vous recommande.   Voici la page de Lea Ypi au Collège de France si vous souhaitez écouter ses leçons dans le cadre de la chaire intitulée : « L'invention de l'Europe par la langue et la culture ».

While Southern Italy is the land of sun-drenched tomatoes and olive oil, Northern Italy offers a completely different culinary landscape. Characterized by the dramatic peaks of the Dolomites, the mist of the Po Valley, and the sophisticated canals of Venice, the North is a region of rich history and hearty, “stick-to-your-bones” fare.In this final installment of our Italian culinary tour, we head to the cooler climates of regions like Piedmont, Lombardy, and Veneto. We explore how the landscape—shaped by French, Germanic, and Celtic influences—created a cuisine centered around butter, cream, and grains like rice and corn.But don't let the prevalence of animal products fool you; Northern Italy is also the birthplace of some of the world's most beloved plant-based staples. From the “king of rice” to the traditional art of handmade gnocchi and the vibrant pesto of Liguria, we uncover the vegan gems hidden within this elegant, mountainous terrain.In this episode you will learn:* The North-South Divide: Why the cooler climate and flat pasturelands led to a culture of butter and cream, while the south remained the land of olive oil.* Risotto Perfection: The secrets of risotto alla Milanese and why carnaroli rice is considered the “caviar” of grains.* The History of Polenta and Gnocchi: How these humble cucina povera (peasant food) dishes evolved from ancient Roman porridges and New World imports into modern delicacies.* Pesto and Focaccia: A deep dive into Liguria's most famous exports and why a mortar and pestle is still the superior way to handle basil.* The Geography of Bread: The origins of ciabatta (the “slipper” bread) and the strict Italian rules about when—and when not—to eat bread with your meal.* Regional Luxuries: The hunt for the elusive white truffle of Piedmont and the centuries-old tradition of producing authentic Aceto Balsamico Tradizionale in Modena.* Holiday Traditions: The Catholic roots of “Carnevale” and the delicious fried treats like crostoli and zeppole that mark the season.* A Toast to the North: A guide to regional wines, from the sparkling reds of Lambrusco to the “foggy” Nebbiolo grapes of Barolo and Barbaresco.

So, even though Mount Etna is  visible from everywhere, really, it's the olive groves and the vineyards surrounding the estate that make all the difference for an experience that makes it really relaxing and exclusive.”We're in great company with Fabio Cimenti, Operating Officer of Villa Neri Etna Resort & Spa, an extraordinary retreat nestled on the volcanic slopes of Mount Etna in the ancient hilltop village of Linguaglossa, Sicily—where a century-old family legacy of farming, winemaking, and quiet reverence for the land has blossomed into one of the island's most distinctive luxury escapes.Here, the silence is intentional, the materials are local, and every detail—from the lava stone underfoot to the Etna DOC wine in your glass—is a love letter to this remarkable corner of the earth.In the final episode of Season 9, Fabio teaches us that a sense of place isn't designed—it's inherited, tended, and passed down.Top Takeaways[1:55] From the Dolomites to the slopes of Etna—what does it take to leave a career in education behind and follow a feeling?[6:00] Greek, Roman, Arabic, Spanish, French—Sicily isn't just an island, it's a civilization layered on top of itself.[7:10] With its lava stone houses and a cuisine fed by volcanic soil—Linguaglossa is not the seaside Sicily you imagined.[11:00] A tenor's voice built the fortune. A brother's grief brought it home to Sicily. And four generations later, those first vines are now a five-star estate.[13:50] At Villa Neri, the roots aren't just a story—they're sitting in the hallway for guests to encounter. [16:35] Breakfast facing a volcano, lunch in the vineyards, dinner under a Sicilian sunset—Fabio's ideal day at Villa Neri is not a hard sell.[21:35] From marble floors, lava stone walls and a local sculptor's permanent collection to suite wine cellars and lodge spas facing the volcano—Villa Neri has thought carefully about what it means to wake up on these slopes.[27:15] Chef Elia Russo's memories menu at 12 Fontane is a journey through Sicily—from the volcanic highlands to the coastline—told through ingredients that have never left the island.[29:10] At Petra Spa, even the treatments are sourced from the land—because Villa Neri believes a guest should feel Sicily in every sense.[31:10] Casa Arrigo is where it all began—the original land, the first vines, the first olive press—and a minute's walk from Villa Neri, it's still where the best stories are told.Notable MentionsWhite Lotus Season 2 at San Domenico Palace in Taormina, Sicily Dolce & GabbanaArtist Salvatore IncorporaSicilian desserts, cassata cakes & cannoli Neri Etna Rosato DOC made of 100% Nerello MascaleseFerragosto in AugustNeri Agricola ShopVisit For YourselfVilla Neri Website | Neri Etna Website | @villaneri

In this episode of Crypto Town Hall, Scott and guests dive deep into the ongoing World Liberty Financial drama. What started as a Trump-backed DeFi project promising to help the "debanked" has turned into a major controversy, with massive token locking, high utilization on Dolomite lending pools, and over $150M reportedly extracted in stablecoins while investors remain locked out. The conversation explores the project's questionable origins, governance issues, and the broader implications for crypto's reputation and upcoming legislation like the CLARITY Act.

Michael Mazzara, CEO of Rogue Expeditions, breaks down one of the most overlooked trends in travel: running tourism. What started as a personal challenge turned into a global opportunity—multi-day running experiences that combine movement, culture, and community across destinations like Japan, Slovenia, and the Dolomites. In this episode, we get into why traditional race travel often falls short, who these trips are actually designed for (hint: not elite runners), and how shared physical experiences create deeper, more meaningful connections than typical group travel. If you've ever laced up your shoes in a new city or wondered what travel could look like beyond sightseeing, this one's for you.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/globetrotters-podcast--5023679/support.
