In Australia, no wedding or school dance is complete without the Nutbush, Australia's unofficial national dance. The Nutbush – a simple line dance to the song “Nutbush City Limits,” by Ike and Tina Turner – has become as stereotypically Australian as kangaroos, boomerangs, and Vegemite.And yet, hardly anyone outside of Australia even knows the Nutbush exists. Here at Decoder Ring, we certainly didn't – until we started getting emails from Australians asking us to investigate its origins. How did an American song become the soundtrack for an Australian national tradition? Who invented the iconic steps, and why does every Australian know them?Our producer Max Freedman put on his dancing shoes to get some answers. The global, century-spanning story of the Nutbush involves Australia, Tennessee, Denmark, primary schools, gay discos, and demonstrates that even the goofiest cultural touchstones can go surprisingly deep.In this episode you'll hear from culture journalists David Mack and Angus Kidman; Nutbush researchers Panizza Allmark and Jon Stratton; dance historians Erica Okamura and Richard Powers; Dr. Fiona Chatteur, Jeremy Santolin, and Brian Kerr.This episode was written and produced by Max Freedman and edited by Evan Chung, our supervising producer.

Introduction Across Asia, Africa, and Latin America, two-wheeled vehicles are the backbone of everyday transportation. With roughly one billion two-wheelers on the road globally, their collective carbon footprint is enormous. Briz, a brand developed by Hong Kong-based One Energy (HK) Limited, is tackling this head-on with affordable electric two-wheelers paired with a rapid battery-swapping service that makes going electric cheaper than filling a tank. Background Two-wheelers dominate personal mobility across the Global South for one simple reason: cost. Cars remain out of reach for hundreds of millions of people, making motorcycles and scooters the primary mode of getting to work, school, and the market. They also power much of the last-mile delivery economy such as food, parcels, and pharmaceuticals in dense urban environments across Southeast Asia, Sub-Saharan Africa, and South America. Since most of these vehicles run on gasoline, they collectively represent a significant and often overlooked source of global CO₂ emissions. Briz electric two-wheelers are designed to be price-competitive with their gas-powered equivalents from the outset. Rather than relying on home charging, which requires a stable power supply, time, and upfront infrastructure, Briz customers subscribe to a battery-swapping service. When the battery runs low, riders visit a nearby swap station, slide out the depleted battery, and click in a fully charged one. The company says the swap takes under a minute. Critically, the monthly cost of the swapping service is designed to be lower than what a rider would typically spend on gasoline, lowering the financial barrier to switching. One of the most persistent obstacles to electric vehicle adoption in emerging markets is charging time. Early Briz models required up to five hours to recharge, a dealbreaker for riders who depend on their vehicles for daily income, but the battery-swap model sidesteps this entirely. It also removes battery degradation. Since customers are subscribing to a service rather than owning a battery outright, the often steep cost of battery replacement falls on the operator, not the individual rider. Advantages By targeting a vehicle category that has historically been overlooked in the electrification conversation, Briz has the potential to generate outsized climate impact. Electrifying even a fraction of the world's one billion two-wheelers, especially in regions where electricity grids are increasingly powered by renewables, could deliver meaningful reductions in transport emissions. The business model is also structured to work for people with lower and irregular incomes: the subscription pricing removes large upfront costs, and the swap infrastructure means riders aren't dependent on owning or accessing home charging equipment. Drawbacks and Critiques The battery-swap model works well in cities and dense corridors with swap station coverage, however it creates real limitations for long-distance travel. Riders venturing beyond the swap network face the same range anxiety that affects all battery electric vehicles. Expanding station infrastructure into rural and peri-urban areas will be essential and expensive if the model is to reach its full potential. Safety is another concern. Battery swap stations concentrate large numbers of lithium-ion cells in a single location, creating a fire risk. One Energy says its stations are equipped with automatic fire-extinguishing systems designed to respond to any battery fire before it can spread, but the risk is worth monitoring as the network scales. Kevin To's Perspective Kevin To, CEO of One Energy (HK) Limited, brings the operator's view to the challenge of electrifying the world's most common vehicle. His company's approach of supplying affordable hardware, subscription-based battery access, and a focus on markets where two-wheelers are a necessity rather than a lifestyle choice reflects a pragmatic bet that climate solutions need to make economic sense for the people adopting them, not just for investors or policymakers. About Kevin To Kevin To is the CEO of One Energy (HK) Limited, the parent company behind the Briz brand of light electric vehicles. Based in Hong Kong, he leads the company's efforts to bring affordable, battery-swappable electric two-wheelers to mass markets across Asia and beyond.

Electrifying the transport system will require strong bi-partisan action. The Drive Electric State of the Nation report has found globally, one in four new vehicle purchases are electric – up from one in five in 2024. Chair Kirsten Corson says strides are being made in public transport, with New Plymouth's bus fleet being 100% electric, and Auckland Transport having more than 300 electric buses. She told Mike Hosking it's not an environmental decision anymore – it's an economic one. In the past three years they've seen the percentage of new vehicle sales that are electric increasing in countries like Ethiopia, Vietnam, Thailand, and Turkey, Corson says, as from an economic perspective, they no longer want to import fossil fuels.

In this episode, I talk with Addison Stark of AtmosZero about why replacing the standard fossil-gas boiler requires an entirely new approach to industrial heat pumps. We discuss the engineering behind his high-temperature system, the challenges of scaling up, and the growing imperative to get free of global LNG markets.

Send us Fan MailThe clinical trial system is starting to look like a motorway at a standstill: more and more drugs are lining up, but the lanes ahead are already full. We sit down with Pamela Tenart to unpack why the industry may have reached the limit of human-only clinical development, and why “adding more people” is no longer a realistic plan when experienced CRAs, site co-ordinators and trial operators are already stretched thin.From there, we get practical about what agentic AI could change inside clinical trial operations. We talk about AI agents that can pull context across CTMS, EDC, safety reporting and TMF, helping monitors prepare for site visits, flag missing fields, propose next best actions, draft communications, and reduce the dead time where teams are simply waiting for updates. The point is not to automate judgement, but to automate the admin and co-ordination work so humans can focus on strategy, enrolment, quality, and patient safety with a clear audit trail and human-in-the-loop control.We also zoom out to the bigger bottleneck: sponsors, CROs and sites are part of one connected system, so optimising one party can just shift the pain elsewhere. Along the way we explore why better, more sensitive endpoints can shorten trial timelines, how policy and regulation might need to evolve, and a memorable metaphor from industrial history: electricity boosted individual productivity first, but factories only truly improved once they were rebuilt for the new technology.If you're working in clinical research, drug development, biotech, or health tech, this conversation will help you think more clearly about where AI genuinely shortens the critical path and where it simply adds noise.

Every single scenario for the future that looks at a cleaner energy system has electrification growing to 60, 70, 80% or more, and yet we don't make rapid progress. Why? One of the reasons we don't make progress lies in narratives and culture wars. We hear about heat pumps that don't work, we hear about electric vehicles that don't work, we hear that electrification can't work for high temperature heat and so on, and then we hear a narrative that there is a false solution that will work much better: hydrogen.  So how do we electrify things faster? By focussing on what we can do right now, commercially at scale, and removing the barriers that slow those sectors down.  Presenting the Electrification Staircase, a tool that breaks down the “Electrify Everything” argument into what can be achieved now, what will be in the near future, and what needs more support to come into being by the middle of the century.  This week on Cleaning Up, Michael is joined by the authors of the Electrification Staircase to explore their thinking behind it, how it can be used, and what can be done to get electrification moving even faster.  The authors are Adrian Hiel, Director of the Electrification Alliance, Silvia Madeddu, Solutions Architect at Schneider Electric, William Drake, analyst at Liebreich Associates and Thomas Butler, associate at the Regulatory Assistance Project, as well as Michael Liebreich.  Leadership Circle: Cleaning Up is proud to be supported by its Leadership Circle.

It's the end of April, and a reopening of the Strait of Hormuz is looking further away than ever. Its closure looms large over everything else at the moment, and risk asset investors are starting to worry for the first time in several weeks. However, there are still signs of life across the market. In this week's episode, we look at some of those rebound stories and discuss whether recoveries can persist in the face of ongoing stress. Michael Fahy discusses the electronics sector – companies such as Renishaw, Oxford Instruments and XP Power, which are belatedly starting to benefit from supplying the semiconductor industry.We then move to this week's Big Read on electricity and electrification. Could the defining, if sometimes forgotten, story of the past century be the characterising feature of this century, too? Alex Newman has the answers.Finally, Julian Hofmann talks about chemicals supplier Synthomer, whose refinancing and improved full-year figures provide the first signs of recovery.

The EV platform frees up more interior space than any previous C-Class, and the car adds a new multi-source heat pump that heats the cabin twice as fast as combustion models while using roughly half the energy, alongside Vegan Society-certified upholstery, electropneumatic lumbar seats with massage and ventilation, an optional Burmester 4D system with seat exciters, and an optional Sky Control roof with 162 illuminated stars.MUSK COMPANIES PROPPED UP CYBERTRUCK Q4SpaceX purchased 1,279 Cybertrucks in Q4 2025, accounting for nearly 20% of all US Cybertruck registrations in the period, with Musk-owned entities including xAI, The Boring Company, and Neuralink collectively taking 1,339 units out of 7,071 total US registrations. Analysts estimated that without these affiliated-company purchases, Cybertruck registrations would have fallen more than 50% year-over-year, and Musk-linked companies continued buying in early 2026 with 158 units in January and 67 in February.MAZDA6E UK PRICED FROM £38,995Mazda will launch the all-electric Mazda6e in the UK this summer with orders open now, priced from £38,995 for the Takumi trim and £39,995 for the Takumi Plus, featuring a 78kWh LFP battery with up to 348 miles of WLTP range and a 10–80% DC fast charge time of just 24 minutes. Unlike mainland European versions, the UK model gets a single-battery setup, paired with a rear-mounted motor doing 0–62mph in 7.9 seconds, a five-door hatchback body, a 14.6-inch touchscreen, and an augmented reality head-up display.BMW ADDS CONTRACT-FREE PLUG & CHARGE IN GERMANYBMW Group has launched a contract-free Plug & Charge service in Germany, allowing drivers of compatible BMW and MINI EVs to authenticate at public DC charging points simply by plugging in, with billing going directly to the credit card stored on their BMW or MINI account. The first rollout covers over 1,400 charging points across Germany and Austria via partner Mer Germany using Hubject's system, and is the first time Plug & Charge has been extended to drivers without an existing charging contract, including tourists and fleet users.BYD ADDS TWO SHARK 6 VARIANTSBYD has expanded its Shark 6 ute range in Australia from one model to three, adding the Shark 6 Dynamic Cab-Chassis (from A$55,900) and the Shark 6 Performance (from A$62,900) alongside the existing Shark 6 Premium. All variants use BYD's Dual Mode Off-Road plug-in hybrid system combining a turbocharged petrol engine with front and rear electric motors and a Blade battery, with the Performance variant boosting towing capacity to 3,500kg and adding a dedicated Crawl Mode for off-road use.ALLEGO ADDS SMART OVERNIGHT CHARGING IN DUTCH MARKETAllego has launched a smart overnight charging scheme in the Netherlands using Deftpower technology, offering drivers a choice from 6 PM between immediate and smart charging, with the latter shifting sessions to off-peak hours to reduce grid strain during evening peaks. Drivers who opt in receive cashback rewards of up to 5% of charging costs, and Allego plans to expand the model from its initial rollout to around 9,000 charging points in the Netherlands before extending it to Belgium.FUEL SPIKE PUSHES DRIVERS TOWARDS EVSA survey by Electrifying.com of over 1,000 visitors found that more than 70% of non-EV drivers said rising fuel prices — spiked by US-Israel air attacks on Iran and disruption to oil supply through the Strait of Hormuz — are making them more actively consider switching to electric. Electrifying.com founder Ginny Buckley reported a near-50% week-on-week surge in site traffic since the start of the US-Iran conflict, while analyst Tom Barnard noted some used EVs priced under £5,000 can pay for themselves within a few years through fuel savings alone.RIVIAN MAKES FOUR RAN SITES NACS-ONLYRivian has converted four California-based Rivian Adventure Network charging sites to NACS-only, removing CCS1 connectors entirely in a first for the network, a move likely driven by the ramp-up of the R2 and the 2026 R1S and R1T, all of which ship with NACS as standard. Owners of older CCS1 Rivians and other non-NACS EVs will need a NACS-to-CCS1 adapter to use these four sites, with the switch also simplifying site logistics as NACS-equipped Rivians grow in number.HONDA SUPER-N SET FOR UK JULY LAUNCHHonda has revealed the Super-N, an all-electric kei-inspired hatchback measuring 3.4 metres in length, due on sale in the UK from July at under £20,000, directly rivalling the Dacia Spring and Hyundai Inster. Power comes from a compact e-axle producing 47 kW (rising to 70 kW in BOOST Mode), with Honda quoting a UK urban range of 199 miles and a combined range of 128 miles, though battery and charging specifications have not yet been disclosed.MAV SYSTEMS LAUNCHES BAYIQ FOR EV BAYSUK-based MAV Systems has launched BayiQ, an ANPR camera system designed to help parking operators, councils, and transport authorities tackle overstaying, ICEing, and poor turnover at EV charging bays. A single BayiQ unit can monitor multiple adjacent bays simultaneously, unlike conventional ANPR systems that require one camera per bay, reducing installation costs and civil works for operators managing busy charging locations.

We're back after Easter (and far too much chocolate), and yes… we're starting exactly where we left off. Nicola's now-infamous rant about the Polestar 4 infotainment system returns for part two – complete with your brilliant reactions and a slightly more… calming reset guide. Public service, Electrifying style.Elsewhere, it's been a busy week behind the wheel. There's a twin test fresh from the barn, Vicky's been driving the Tiggo, and we've even squeezed in a first go in the new Jaguar GT.In the news, EV sales are booming, and Octopus Energy is shaking things up by slashing on-street charging costs – in some cases making it cheaper than charging at home. Is this a turning point for EV drivers without driveways?We also dive into your comments and questions, including first-time EV buyers, real-world efficiency wins, and one listener's frustrating experience with the Citroën e-C4. Plus, we tackle everything from Renault feature updates to which EVs actually cope with Britain's worst roads.And finally… are modern car interiors getting a bit dull?

Electrification at pace? You betcha! Gas import terminals? Some still like ‘em! Global fuel crisis? So far unaccounted for, but we can't say the same for one c-word. Run, don't walk, over to www.letmesumup.net and subscribe to our Patreon to check it out. — Wouldn't you know, the world is *still* cray cray, but extant so let's take that win! The PM is one national address into this crisis and throw in the National Cabinet's latest four point plan (the National Fuel Security Plan) and some COVID-style PTSD is kicking in! But not to worry folks, we are at Level Two and the message is very much Don't Panic, Take The Train Or Work From Home If You Can. We reckon this is a fascinating exercise in laying down markers for messaging that will be ramped up, and we'll continue to speculate over some of the woolier bits in Levels 3 and 4. WATCH THIS SPACE. Our main course There's no shortage of ideas abounding at the moment on how exactly not to waste the current fuel crisis, but your intrepid hosts landed upon the Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis' latest paper, ‘The perfect storm to boost energy security: How Australia can reduce its oil exposure in the wake of the Iran conflict.' Brought to us by Kevin Morrison and Amandine Denis-Ryan, the crew at IEEFA do a splendid job of laying out the history and context around Australia's current predicament of much more marginal reserves than our IEA counterparts and while they're at it, serve up a menu of sensible solutions on the supply and demand side, to ensure we don't find ourselves in this particular pickle again. Bilateral crisis supply agreements? We're seeing some signs of that! Electrification and energy efficiency? That sounds like a thing we're about! One more things Tennant's One More Thing is: true nerd appreciation for the just launched Artemis II! A cool, technically stupendous and peaceful adventure into space!

99% of registered fleets belong to small and mid-size businesses — but the EV industry wasn't built for them. High upfront costs, years-long waits for grid access, and charging solutions designed for large operators have left the backbone of the American economy behind.This week on Everybody in the Pool, we meet a founder who's changing that. Galina Russell, co-founder of Mitra EV, built a turnkey solution that bundles electric trucks and vans with charging infrastructure, so plumbers, electricians, and delivery companies can electrify their fleets without the logistical headache.We talk about:Why small commercial fleets are the most overlooked (and impactful) EV opportunityThe barriers to EV adoption for small and mid-size business ownersMitra's "laptop and charger" model: leasing vehicles and installing charging together, from day oneHow Mitra works within existing grid capacity instead of waiting years for new powerBattery storage, peak shaving, and the vision for 50 megawatts of distributed backup powerWhy cost savings — not climate ideology — is the killer pitch to small business ownersLinks:Mitra EV: https://www.mitra-ev.com/Galina's book recommendation, The Grid by Gretchen Bakke: https://www.bloomsbury.com/us/grid-9781632865687/All episodes: https://www.everybodyinthepool.com/Subscribe to the Everybody in the Pool newsletter: https://www.mollywood.co/Become a member for the ad-free version of the show: https://everybodyinthepool.supercast.com/ Hosted on Acast.

In this episode, we explore the powerful connection between mitochondrial dysfunction and heart rhythm disorders, including AFib. Often called the “powerhouses” of the cell, mitochondria play a critical role in cardiac energy production, electrical stability, and overall heart performance. When these cellular engines falter, the effects can ripple through the cardiovascular system.We'll break down the emerging science linking mitochondrial health to arrhythmias and structural heart disease — and more importantly, discuss the foundational role of nutrition in supporting lifelong cardiovascular resilience. From essential micronutrients and metabolic balance to strategies that optimize cellular energy, this conversation bridges cutting-edge research with practical, actionable insights.Whether you're a clinician, health professional, or someone seeking a deeper understanding of heart health, this episode will expand your view of cardiovascular care — from the heartbeat to the mitochondria that power it.https://www.georgebatista.com/  http://www.myvitaminresource.com/ - Wellness Resources

Bad Bunny, the Puerto Rican superstar Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, remains at the center of headlines this week following his explosive Super Bowl LX halftime show at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara. According to The National Desk, controversy erupted as Republican lawmakers like Rep. Andy Ogles of Tennessee demanded a Congressional investigation into the NFL and NBC, labeling the performance inappropriate and pushing for FCC scrutiny over potential indecent language violations. Rep. Randy Fine of Florida echoed this in a letter to FCC Chairman Brendan Carr, calling it vulgar, while Rep. Mark Alford noted ongoing probes into the lyrics. The New York Post's On The Money column reports the FCC reviewed the show, noting lyrics were censored to avoid references to sex acts and genitalia, and is shelving further action without new evidence. Ogles and Alford criticized it as an NFL bid to expand into Latin America over American patriotism.Musically, Business Insider details the epic setlist Bad Bunny delivered last Sunday, opening with hits like "Tití Me Preguntó" and "Yo Perreo Sola" from his albums Un Verano Sin Ti and YHLQMDLG. He mixed in tracks from his Grammy-winning 2025 album Debí Tirar Más Fotos, such as "Voy a Llevarte Pa PR," "Eoo," "Baile Inolvidable," "Nuevayol," "Café Con Ron," and "DTMF." Surprise guests included Lady Gaga for a salsa twist on "Die With a Smile," Ricky Martin on "Lo Que Le Pasó a Hawaii," plus cameos from Karol G, Cardi B, Jessica Alba, and Pedro Pascal. Other songs spanned "Safaera," "Party," "Monaco," and "El Apagón."Apple Music reports unprecedented buzz: listens spiked 7x post-show, with "DtMF," "BAILE INOLVIDABLE," and "Tití Me Preguntó" topping streams. The pre-show press conference shattered records with over 63 million views, and Shazam saw massive upticks, especially for "BAILE INOLVIDABLE" in the U.S. Spotify now hosts the live halftime single, keeping the momentum alive.Listeners, thank you for tuning in.

Your home might be polluting more than your car, and the fix is closer than you think. In this episode of Disruptive CEO Nation, I'm joined by Stephen Lake, co-founder and CEO of Jetson Home, a company making home electrification simpler and significantly more affordable. We talk about why heating and cooling is one of the biggest decarbonization opportunities, what's been holding heat pumps back in North America, and how Jetson Home is scaling fast across the U.S. and Canada. Stephen also shares the founder's lessons behind rapid growth, the importance of building scalable systems early, and why he's committed to mentoring the next generation of entrepreneurs. Here are the highlights: -The hidden emissions story: Why residential heating and cooling is a massive climate lever, and why most homeowners underestimate their home's footprint. -Why heat pumps haven't taken off here (yet): The “green premium,” confusing rebates, and an opaque contractor process that makes switching feel like a major project. -Jetson Home's “make it dead easy” model: Online, upfront pricing in minutes, a remote quoting process, and a streamlined install designed to get homes converted fast. -Scaling without breaking: How Stephen thinks about the tension between growth and chaos, and why the team prioritized systems, tools, and repeatable processes from day one. -Founder mindset + giving back: Lessons from building his first company North Inc. (and selling to Google), launching Jetson Home in a completely different industry, and the role mentorship programs played in shaping his leadership.   About the guest: Stephen Lake is the co-founder and CEO of Jetson Home, a home electrification company making the shift to all-electric systems more affordable and accessible. A mechatronics engineering graduate from the University of Waterloo, he previously co-founded North Inc. (formerly Thalmic Labs) and led the development of augmented-reality and wearable-tech products before the company was acquired by Google in 2020. In 2024, he turned his focus to climate tech and launched Jetson Home, which rapidly scaled with hubs in Vancouver, Colorado, and Massachusetts and has installed nearly 1,000 proprietary heat pump systems in homes. For his work advancing clean energy solutions, Lake was named to the 2025 TIME100 Climate list.   Connect with Stephen: Website: https://jetsonhome.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/slake/   Connect with Allison: Feedspot has named Disruptive CEO Nation as one of the Top 25 CEO Podcasts on the web.

Send me a messageIndustrial heat powers half of manufacturing - and almost no one is talking about it.What if one of the biggest supply chain emissions problems has been hiding in the boiler room all along?In this episode, I'm joined by Addison Stark, CEO and co-founder of AtmosZero, to tackle one of the most overlooked risks in industrial sustainability: steam. A 160-year-old technology that still delivers roughly half of all industrial heat, quietly underpinning food, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, brewing, and more.We explore why industrial heat is routinely labelled “hard to abate” and why that label may be more habit than reality. You'll hear how electrified, drop-in steam boilers can replace combustion without forcing factories to redesign their operations, and why productised solutions matter more than bespoke decarbonisation projects if we want scale.We break down why heat pumps can outperform resistive electric boilers by a factor of two, how ignoring waste heat can actually accelerate deployment, and why engineers and plant managers, not press releases, ultimately decide what technologies make it into supply chains. You might be surprised to learn how Europe's energy volatility and policy certainty are reshaping the economics of industrial heat, and why steam decarbonisation could follow a very different curve from solar or EVs.This is a conversation about resilience, risk, and the unglamorous infrastructure that keeps global supply chains moving. Hidden systems. Real impact. No hype.

Send us a textTransportation contributes to 20% of carbon emissions globally, and there is progress in using electricity to replace conventional transportation systems that use hydrocarbon fuels.Is there enough attention paid to the development of the infrastructures to support this transition?What will it take for consumers to buy-into increased electrification of their transportation choices and what kind of eco-system is required for this transformation to succeed? How similar are Europe and the U.S? Could Hydrogen be considered a viable power source? Thanks for listening!

This week on Everybody in the Pool, we're starting in full aspirational mode (with one of my least climate-friendly obsessions) — with iconic classic cars rebuilt as state-of-the-art EVs. Think: vintage Porsches, Land Rovers, Pagodas, even a GT40… all stripped to bare metal, fully restored, and reborn as clean-air electric machines. Yeah, I'm dying over here.My guest is Justin Lunny, founder and CEO of Everrati, a company that electrifies beloved classic cars while also building a cutting-edge EV powertrain platform used by new low-volume automakers around the world.It's a story about craft and circularity — giving existing cars a new, zero-emission life — and about how aspiration drives climate adoption. Wealthy early adopters (and their garages) help prove what's possible, push down cost curves, and build social permission for the EV future.We get into:How Everrati “redefines” classic cars using full CAD modeling, advanced engineering, and hand-built restorationWhy their EV powertrains use motors and components normally found in hypercars and Formula EThe economics: donor cars, bespoke builds, and why the least-loved 964s are perfect candidatesWhy keeping old cars alive — electrically — is a circularity winThe B2B side: powering new sports cars and specialty vehicles for low-volume OEMsWhy electrifying halo cars helps drive broader consumer aspirationBattery modularity, future upgrades, and designing for long-term sustainabilityJustin's personal journey from tech entrepreneur to climate-driven car nutLinks:Everrati: https://everrati.com/All episodes: https://www.everybodyinthepool.com/Subscribe to the Everybody in the Pool newsletter: https://www.mollywood.co/Become a member for the ad-free version of the show:https://everybodyinthepool.supercast.com/ Hosted on Acast.

When it comes to battery electric trucks, is real-world data beating consumer expectations?  According to findings from The International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT), the real-world driving range of heavy duty electric trucks is 10 to 20% better than what is communicated by truck manufacturers. It's an exciting finding — and one that could propel the decarbonization of freight forward.   To learn more, we sat down with Hussein Basma, Senior Researcher at the ICCT, for an eye-opening look at the electrification of Europe's heavy-duty trucking sector. From ambitious regulations to rapid advances in battery technology and charging infrastructure, you'll discover how the EU is driving toward decarbonizing freight — and what that means for the rest of the world.

Jamie Raskin delivers a sweeping call to defend democracy, uplift voting rights, and reject rising authoritarianism at a Texas Democratic dinner.SUMMARYRep. Jamie Raskin charges into a Texas Democratic dinner with a constitutional call to action rooted in courage, love of democracy, and a refusal to surrender to authoritarianism. He recounts his early political battles, celebrates Texas activists who fight against disenfranchisement, and urges Americans to reclaim the constitutional promise that anti-democratic forces are trying to crush. He frames the struggle not as left vs. right but as democracy vs. authoritarian rule. His message becomes a roadmap for a movement grounded in participation, truth-telling, and the unshakeable belief that the people—not oligarchs, not demagogues—must govern.Raskin uplifts Texas Democrats as frontline defenders of democracy against voter suppression and political sabotage.He recounts his own improbable rise to office to show that impossible victories become real when people organize.He invokes the Constitution not as a relic but as a living mandate requiring civic courage and participation.He warns that extremists and would-be authoritarians depend on apathy—so mass democratic engagement becomes the antidote.He calls on Texans to help “take the country back” from forces that undermine equality, truth, and the rule of law.Raskin's speech becomes a rallying cry for a multiracial, pro-democracy America grounded in civic courage. He makes clear that Texans—and all Americans—hold the constitutional power to defeat authoritarianism by organizing their communities, defending voting rights, and standing firmly on the moral arc that bends toward justice. His message reminds the country that democracy survives only when ordinary people choose to act.Subscribe to our Newsletter:https://politicsdoneright.com/newsletterPurchase our Books: As I See It: https://amzn.to/3XpvW5o How To Make AmericaUtopia: https://amzn.to/3VKVFnG It's Worth It: https://amzn.to/3VFByXP Lose Weight And BeFit Now: https://amzn.to/3xiQK3K Tribulations of anAfro-Latino Caribbean man: https://amzn.to/4c09rbE

In the race to decarbonize agriculture, the spotlight often falls on carbon sequestration, genetics, and alternative proteins. But have we overlooked something that's right in front of us? Electricity.Mike Casey is a self-described “tech bro turned farmer” from Cromwell, New Zealand. Mike runs what's believed to be the world's first fully electric farm, made up of 21 electric machines, from irrigation systems and frost-fighting fans, to electric tractors and forklifts. His business is aptly named Electric Cherries, where power is generated from renewable sources on-farm. Mike says this has enabled him to save tens of thousands on energy costs every year, while also developing a business model for farming that's both profitable and low-carbon.Sarah and Mike discuss:How an old diesel pump kicked off Mike's electrification crusadeThe economics of going electric on a farm (and is it only possible in New Zealand or on a cherry farm?)What electric machinery changes (and doesn't) about running a farm business Why farmers stand to benefit from the shift away from centralized, fossil fuel power generation to decentralized renewable energyMike is also the CEO of Rewiring Aotearoa, a movement helping Kiwis switch from fossil fuels to renewable energy. His mission is simple: make electric technology an economic no-brainer for every farmer and household.Useful Links:On-Farm Electrification isn't an equipment change, it's a systems change, Agtech So… What?Electric Cherries,  Evoke Ag presentation by Mike CaseyElectric Farms Report, Rewiring AotearoaThe future of (decentralized) fertilizer, with Jupiter Ionics (Tenacious portfolio company)For more information and resources, visit our website. The information in this post is not investment advice or a recommendation to invest.

On this episode of “Fearless,” Jason Whitlock comments on Shohei Ohtani being the greatest athlete on earth. He explains why it's more difficult to connect with Shohei and basketball star Victor Wembanyama than it was with American-born athletes of the past, such as Magic Johnson, Larry Bird, Tom Brady, Michael Jordan, and others with whom fans had a more personal connection. Danny Kanell joins the show to offer his insight into the Shohei phenomenon; Brian Kelly's firing from LSU; Deion Sanders' future at Colorado; and whether the rumors are true that Steve Sarkisian is interested in an NFL gig. Guests Paul Burkhardt and Jay Skapinac join Whitlock to remark on Kendrick Perkins firing a shot at Ja Morant for off-the-court antics; whether Victor Wembanyama is the best player in basketball; and Bronny James' unimpressive latest game, in which he played for 20 minutes and went 0-2 with three turnovers.
