Fourteen years after launch, Subway Surfers is still one of the biggest games in the world. In this episode, Kalie Moore sits down with Mathias Gredal Nørvig, CEO of SYBO, to unpack how a mobile game launched in 2012 continues to attract between 100 and 150 million monthly players while nearly every other hit from its era has faded away. They explore the philosophy behind Subway Surfers' iconic World Tour live operations, why empowering artists and designers has kept the game feeling fresh for more than a decade, how community ideas have directly shaped new characters and game modes, and why collaborations with games like Brawl Stars have become some of the studio's most successful partnerships. Mathias also shares how Subway Surfers Cities evolved from years of experimentation, why SYBO deliberately avoided cannibalizing its flagship title, and what they're still learning as they build the franchise's next chapter.The conversation also dives into one of gaming's most remarkable organic marketing stories: how Subway Surfers became one of TikTok's biggest gaming phenomena without spending on user acquisition, why SYBO gives its social team extraordinary creative freedom, and how the studio thinks about virality, platform expansion, and community-first marketing. Mathias shares SYBO's measured approach to AI, lessons from becoming part of Miniclip and Tencent, why the company stepped back from large-scale licensing despite nearly five billion downloads, and how sustainability, accessibility, and healthy gameplay have become core parts of the studio's long-term vision. The episode offers a rare look inside one of mobile gaming's most enduring success stories and what it takes to build an evergreen franchise that continues to evolve without losing what made it special.We'd also like to thank Heroic Labs for making this episode possible!

As part of our 4th anniversary series we are dedicating this episode to the Catholic Document, "Humanae Vitae". This document was released on July 25th, 1968 and 56 years later it is still shaping conversations on human love, responsibility, and the dignity of the human person. Many would agree few documents have carried as much influence in the life of the Catholic Church. We will deliver today's show in 2 parts with the beginning looking at some details about the document before transitioning into its history and prophetic nature.

Enduring uncertainty about prospects for a recovery in strait of Hormuz gas carrier transits continue to cloud LPG market outlooks following a resumption of conflict in the Middle East.    This episode of  Global LPG Conversations, was recorded on 8 July as initial hopes of a return to normality on the US-Iran memorandum of understanding were beginning to fade in the wake of renewed air strikes exchanged in the region. And it sees Peter Wilton (Editor, Argus International LPG) speak with Waldemar Jaszczyk (Deputy Editor, European Pricing) and Jack Greenwood (Head of LPG Consulting) in an attempt to explain how markets and prices have fared in recent weeks and understand what a path back from months of strait of disruption to global supply would look like if peace can return once more.    They examine how Asia absorbed the initial shock, why northwest Europe proved more resilient than expected, and what a slower recovery through Hormuz could mean for supply, freight and pricing into the heating season.

As the middle child of five, Ping experienced a lot of family pressure and political pressure as she was raised in China during The Cultural Revolution from 1966 through 1976. Enduring tremendous upheaval, it took a toll on Ping and her family. Perhaps because of Ping's past, she found it in her heart to stand up against society and family. Ping was there for her daughter at a number of crucial life changing events. She deserves a lot of credit for believing in her daughter and her daughter's behavior, when culturally it was frowned upon.  In one particular situation that you'll hear about in the interview  Leslie says "my mom's lack of response saved me." So many lessons to learn from two women, very similar personalities yet a generation apart. Leslie shares that she knew at a young age that she wanted to leave China and go to college in the United States and it was her mother who stood in front of thousands and advocated for her daughter and didn't succumb to the intimidation. Today, Leslie is a mom and business owner. She  is not a doctor, yet after her own experience of weight gain and years of studying and research, she now is able to help others with their food obsession. Her philosophy incorporates current day reasonings as well as Chinese traditions to reprogram your relationship with food.  "It's rather a lifestyle and a kind of mindset and routine which can help you loose the weight effectively without being addicted to this weight loss game," suggests Chen.   One of her suggestions for curbing further cravings for sugar is, "Teassert." She explains in the interview.  Hope you enjoy our conversation.   "Leslie Chen is a high-performance weight loss coach who helps high-achieving women all over the world get a head-turning body permanently and effortlessly, using timeless wisdom from Asia.

Marc Hopkins, author of Hard Things, set out to write a book about running the Bigfoot 200, but what emerged was something much deeper. In this conversation, he shares how endurance running became the lens through which he uncovered old stories about self-worth, fear, identity, and the belief that one more finish line would finally make him enough. Together, we explore why runners chase hard things, the difference between simply enduring life and living with purpose, and how the trail can expose what's really driving us. Marc also opens up about surviving a 99% heart blockage, learning when grit is a strength and when it's time to stop, and why vulnerability may be the toughest skill endurance athletes ever develop. If you've ever wondered why you run, or found yourself learning more about your life than your splits during a long run, this conversation will stay with you long after the episode ends.

Timestamps 00:00 | Why We Chase Hard Things Marc explains how a book about the Bigfoot 200 became an honest look at identity, purpose, and the reasons we pursue difficult goals. 08:00 | Enduring vs. Endurance The conversation explores the difference between simply surviving life and intentionally moving toward something meaningful. 18:30 | The Finish Line Won't Make You Whole Marc shares how he believed one more race would finally prove his worth, and why that mindset eventually fell apart. 30:30 | Lessons From a 99% Heart Blockage A life-threatening diagnosis forced Marc to rethink strength, vulnerability, and what it really means to listen to your body. 43:30 | The Pebble in Your Shoe A simple refrigerator magnet from Marc's childhood became one of the biggest life lessons in the entire book. 49:00 | Why the Next Finish Line Isn't the Answer The hosts discuss identity, self-worth, and why chasing bigger races can never solve what's happening inside. 53:30 | When Can You Finally Call Yourself a Runner? Marc explains why comparison steals joy and why every runner, regardless of pace or body type, belongs on the trail.

As we mark America's 250th birthday, we celebrate parts of America's enduring ecology, including our forests, national parks and other public lands. At the heart of one of Washington State's most expansive wild ecosystems is North Cascades National Park, just a three-hour drive from Seattle yet one of the lesser-known parks.   Also, around 30% of the United States is federal public lands, and the biggest chunk or 245 million acres falls under the purview of the Bureau of Land Management. BLM lands are sometimes called “leftover” or “forgotten” lands, but they offer free or very cheap camping and feature a stark beauty that captivated writer and photographer Josh Jackson, author of the 2025 book, ‘The Enduring Wild: A Journey into California's Public Lands.'   And when European colonists landed in North America, some of the most dramatic changes they made were to our forests. Clearcutting ran rampant, but now, on the 250th birthday of the United States, much of our forests have recovered, particularly in the Northeast. And today, maintaining our forests is vital for mitigating the effects of climate change. -- Sign up for the next virtual Living on Earth Book Club event on July 14 at 5 pm PDT / 8 pm EDT! We'll talk with Yurok activist and attorney Amy Bowers Cordalis about how multiple generations of her family have advocated for the protection of Northern California's Klamath River, a crucial habitat for salmon and the lifeblood of the Yurok tribe.

The Perils of the Northwest Coast. Guest Author: Hampton Sides. Cook mapped the coastline from Oregon to Alaska, enduring foul weather and perpetual fog. While the Spanish sought to arrest him for encroaching on their territory, Benjamin Franklin ordered American captains to protect Cook's scientific mission. The expedition spent a month repairing ships at Nootka Sound, interacting peacefully with the Mowachaht people. Cook meticulously charted the Alaskan coast, even navigating by the sound of walruses in low visibility. However, upon reaching the Bering Sea, he encountered the "ice blink" and an impenetrable wall of ice, proving the "open sea" theory wrong. Threatened by the encroaching pack ice, Cook was forced to retreat, abandoning the search for the season. 71810 DEATH OF COOK

What can sustain the will to die for others, when you are innocent? Jesus banked on love and future joy.
