Guest: Thiago Luiz Ticchetti – National Director of MUFON Brazil In this chilling and eye-opening episode, Tony sits down with UFO investigator and author Thiago Luiz Ticchetti to uncover the shocking truth behind one of the most terrifying events in ufology: the 1977 Colares UFO attacks in Brazil. Known as Operation Saucer, this government-backed investigation documented mysterious lights, unexplained burns, and a community living in fear. Thiago shares exclusive insights from official military files, eyewitness accounts, and decades of research that reveal just how real—and dangerous—this phenomenon was. From the physical effects on victims to the abrupt shutdown of the operation by the Brazilian Air Force, this episode pulls back the curtain on a story the world is still trying to understand.

On this weeks episode of One For The Road I am joined by Alexi Kruiz, a UK emotional being born to two different cultures, family split between love being expressed in chaos or avoidance. Using alcohol as a coping mechanism to feel more confident, feeling like the odd one out with sensory sensitivity.As time went on, gravitation towards chaos kept reappearing as it felt so familiar, though there were stints of sobriety throughout teens and twenties. Events such as having her mother become terminally ill, losing her first love, and being attacked abroad kept the dysregulation in motion, and without the right tools, alcohol and escape felt like the easiest way to cope. The grief became part of the addiction cycle, and it took lockdown, living alone, and a big awakening to moving into a guardianship of 40 people to bring up all the unprocessed feelings and emotions through all sorts of triggers. Once opening their own low-sensory hair business, which led to being headhunted to be a lead stylist, Alexi moved into their own home. The sudden loss of her stepmother to a long relationship with alcohol caused the family home to be lost, and Alexi's flat was filled with everything from the past. Overwhelmed, drinking came back as a coping mechanism — it all got too much. Waking up on the floor of the bathroom, two black eyes and a blackout, she knew that could have been her last day earth-side. Enough was enough. The victim of all things leading to that point had to be fully accepted with love. A late diagnosis of ADHD, self-work, and support from work, family, and friends — community really is key.Love is and can be peaceful. The search for chaos or comfort doesn't need to be the constant switch anymore. Chaos is now just an amazing tool and can be something powerfully productive. Being the love she needed will always be a reminder that we are our own remedy.If you want to connect with me via Instagram, you can find me on the instahandle @Soberdave https://www.instagram.com/soberdave/or via my website https://davidwilsoncoaching.com/Provided below are links for services offering additional help and advice.www.drinkaware.co.uk/advice/alcohol-support-serviceshttps://nacoa.org.uk/Show producer- Daniella Attanasio-MartinezInstagram - @TheDaniellaMartinezhttps://www.instagram.com/thedaniellamartinez/www.instagram.com/grownuphustle Hosted on Acast.

GDP Script/ Top Stories for November 6th Publish Date: November 6th PRE-ROLL: From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Thursday, November 6th and Happy birthday to Glen Frey I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia. Gwinnett stepping in to help as SNAP benefits partially cut Gwinnett passes latest round of E-SPLOST Democrats take rare statewide election wins Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on milk All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: Ingles Markets 2 STORY 1: Gwinnett stepping in to help as SNAP benefits partially cut Gwinnett County is stepping up—big time. With SNAP benefits slashed and the federal shutdown dragging on, officials announced $250,000 to help six local co-ops keep families afloat. “This is urgent,” said Chairwoman Nicole Love Hendrickson. “Over 90,000 Gwinnettians rely on SNAP, and federal employees are already going without pay. The need is only growing.” The funds, pulled from leftover summer lunch program money, will stock essentials like peanut butter, flour, and even dish detergent. The co-ops—Lawrenceville, Lilburn, Duluth, North Gwinnett, Southeast Gwinnett, and Neighborhood Cooperative Ministries—will divide the supplies and distribute them countywide. Meanwhile, the Sheriff’s Office is gearing up for its Thanksgiving food giveaway, expecting to serve 3,000 families. And on Veterans Day, the county’s Stand Down event will offer food, haircuts, and health screenings for veterans and their families. STORY 2: Gwinnett passes latest round of E-SPLOST Gwinnett voters have spoken—again. On Tuesday, nearly 70% said “yes” to keeping the extra penny sales tax for schools, marking the seventh time since 1997 that E-SPLOST has passed. It’s never failed. “Thank you, Gwinnett voters, for putting students first,” said Interim Superintendent Al Taylor. The $1.5 billion raised will fund everything from new roofs and security upgrades to air-conditioned buses and updated Chromebooks. Not everyone’s thrilled, though. Critics like Laura Hunt argue the school board’s spending is out of control. Still, many parents, like Sara Gard, see it differently. “It’s hard to cheer for more taxes, but investing in our kids? That’s worth it.” STORY 3: Democrats take rare statewide election wins In a rare shake-up, two Democrats flipped the script on Tuesday, breaking the GOP’s total hold on Georgia’s Public Service Commission. Alicia Johnson and Peter Hubbard ousted Republican incumbents Tim Echols and Fitz Johnson, riding a wave of frustration over rising utility bills and calls for cleaner energy. Their wins mark a rare statewide victory for Democrats, who haven’t seen much success here since Ossoff and Warnock’s Senate wins. The PSC, which regulates utilities, now has a 3-2 Republican majority—but Democrats now have a voice. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows.

We’ll be right back Break 2: 07.14.22 KIA MOG STORY 4: AROUND TOWN: Snellville police named one of Georgia's top law enforcement agencies Snellville’s police department just gave its residents another reason to brag—actually, make that two. The Governor’s Office of Highway Safety named the department one of Georgia’s best, awarding first place for Distracted Driving Enforcement and Education and second place overall for departments with 46-75 officers in this year’s Governor’s Challenge. “This reflects the hard work of every officer,” the department shared on Facebook. And this isn’t their first rodeo. Snellville PD has racked up awards over the years, including the Governor’s Cup in 2019, 2020, and 2022. Clearly, they’re doing something right. STORY 5: Travis, Harris defeat incumbents in Lawrenceville City Council races Lawrenceville voters shook things up Tuesday, ousting two sitting city council members in favor of fresh faces—including a retired investigative journalist. Randy Travis, a former FOX 5 Atlanta reporter, beat Councilman Austin Thompson by a wide margin: 1,062 to 527. Meanwhile, Gwinnett Sheriff’s Office Maj. Bryant Harris unseated Councilwoman Marlene Taylor Crawford, 1,021 to 562. This all comes as Lawrenceville faces big changes—like a vote to annex 19,000 residents.

My guest on today's episode, Juan Pablo Guzman, shared how his sister's health struggles inspired the family to reconnect with real food, creating snacks that nourish both people and the planet.“Our whole family went on this collective journey of reconnecting to real food,” Juan explained, adding, “We became passionate about using food as a way to heal ourselves, our communities, and our planet.” Artisan Tropic launched in 2014 with plantain and cassava chips and recently expanded to include grain-free crackers made from cassava and plantain flour.But Artisan Tropic is about more than just snacks. Juan's commitment to sustainability and regenerative agriculture sets the company apart. He described their efforts to work directly with small farmers in Colombia, implementing farming practices that prioritize soil health, biodiversity, and fair wages. “Regenerative agriculture is really just doing things the way our grandparents did them,” he said. “It's farming in a way that supports life on the farm—soil life, plant life, and biodiversity.”In 2021, Artisan Tropic piloted a regenerative farming project on a family farm, integrating crops like plantain, cacao, and coffee. Now, through a partnership with Acceso, Artisan Tropic is scaling this model, supporting over 4,000 farmers with technical training, small loans, and guaranteed crop markets. “Within two years of working with Acceso, farmers are making twice as much as they used to,” Juan noted.Artisan Tropic is currently raising capital through a regulated investment crowdfunding campaign on WeFunder. The funds will help the company expand its retail presence with partners like Whole Foods and Costco. “What better way to put your money to work,” Juan asked, “not just for a financial return, but also for the triple impact that your investment unlocks in our supply system?”Listening to Juan's story, it's hard not to feel inspired. Artisan Tropic is more than a brand—it's a movement toward healthier snacks, sustainable farming, and a better future.tl;dr:Artisan Tropic began as a family mission to heal through real food and better nutrition.The company uses regenerative agriculture, supporting small farmers and sustainable farming practices in Colombia.Artisan Tropic's snacks, including plantain chips and grain-free crackers, prioritize health and sustainability.Juan Guzman's family values and love drive the company's mission and commitment to future generations.Artisan Tropic is crowdfunding on WeFunder to scale operations and expand its triple-impact model.How to Develop Love for Family As a SuperpowerJuan Guzman's superpower is his deep love for family, which drives his personal and professional life. As Juan explained, “My love for my family is my superpower. I try to be present. I try to love and I try to listen.” This unwavering commitment to family has shaped Artisan Tropic's mission, inspired its founding, and continues to influence how Juan leads the company. His dedication to creating a better food system stems from a desire to leave a legacy for his children and future generations.Illustrative Story:Juan shared a touching story about how his family's bond deepened over time. While living in New Mexico, he and his sister dreamed of being closer as a family. When Juan moved to Dallas, his sister, her family, and their parents followed, creating a close-knit community where their children could grow up together. “There's nothing that makes me happier than seeing the cousins playing together,” he said. This family cohesion inspires Juan to build a company that reflects their shared values of love, health, and sustainability.Tips for Developing This Superpower:Prioritize Presence: Be fully engaged with your loved ones by putting away distractions like phones.Foster Connection: Create opportunities to spend meaningful time with family, even across distances.Lead with Love: Let your love for family guide your decisions, personally and professionally.Think Generationally: Consider how your actions today can impact future generations.By following Juan's example and advice, you can make love for family a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

Bookwaves/Artwaves is produced and hosted by Richard Wolinsky. Links to assorted local theater & book venues Chelsea Quinn Yarbro (1942-2025) Tanith Lee (1947-2015) This program honors two master practitioners of horror, fantasy and science fiction, Chelsea Quinn Yarbro and Tanith Lee, with two interviews back to back. In the first, in 1983, Tanith Lee is interviewed by Chelsea Quinn Yarbro. In the second, in 1979, Chelsea Quinn Yarbro is interviewed by Richard Wolinsky. Chelsea Quinn Yarbro, who died on August 31, 2025 at the age of 82, was best known for her historical horror novels featuring the vampire the Count Saint.-Germain. Along the way, she wrote in several genres, including science fiction and westerns, and wrote over seventy novels, along with several short stories. Along with her writing, which includes a series of books about a channeler, titled Messages from Michael, she was a cartographer, palm reader, and composer. In 2009, she received the Bram Stoker Lifetime Achievement Award from the Horror Writers Association. She also wrote novels under several pseudonyms. In this podcast, Chelsea Quinn Yarbro joins Richard A. Lupoff to speak with Tanith Lee. In the second interview, she talks about her vampire hero. Count Saint-Germain, and about writing historical horror fiction. It was recorded shortly after her second San Germain novel, The Palace, was published, which would put it in late 1978 or early 1979.. Tanith Lee, who died of breast cancer in 2015 at the age of 67, also wrote fantasy, science fiction and horror, and her work is considered to be similar and a forerunner of the work of Neil Gaiman. She received a lifetime achievement award from the World Horror Convention in 2013. Nominated for several awards for her novels and short stories, she won the 1980 British Fantasy Award for her novel, Death's Master. In this first undated tnterview from Probabilities, most likely recorded at BayCon in San Jose in November 1983, Tanith Lee is interviewed by Chelsea Quinn Yarbro and Richard A. Lupoff. This is the only interview conducted by Quinn Yarbro for Probabilities. Tanith Lee's novel set during the French Revolution was eventually retitled The Gods Are Thirsty, and was finally published in 1996. You've been listening to an interview with Tanith Lee, conducted by Chelsea Quinn Yarbro and Richard A. Lupoff for the Probabilities radio program on KPFA.

"Draft Week" continues on this Wednesday episode as Andy, Brendan, and PJ pick their favorite PGA Tour events of 2025. Speaking of draft picks, the show kicks off with Andy immediately having PJ answer for an explosive trade deadline for the 1-7 Jets. The Jets choosing to stockpile future draft picks rather than have actually good players on the current roster is quickly tied into golf and the constant need to find "who's next." Michael Brennan could be "next," and he's back in action this week as the PGA Tour heads to Mexico for the Worldwide Technologies Championship. Andy and Brendan briefly discuss the field for the event, including Brennan, Ben Griffin, and U.S. Open champ J.J. Spaun. The DP World Tour playoffs begin this week with Rory, Tommy, and more teeing it up at Yas Links for the Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship. Brendan mentions the event's defending champion, Paul Waring, which leads to a guessing game on Waring's 2025 PGA Tour earnings. There was some real, substantial golf news on Wednesday afternoon as it was announced that LIV Golf will begin playing 72-hole tournaments in 2026. Andy and Brendan find great humor in the fact that this is being spun as "innovation" and the next phase of growing the game, despite now being the same as the PGA Tour. They discuss whether the top players will start to separate themselves even more given another 18 holes at every event, and also mention some new trademarks filed by the league for potential team names. The back half of this episode contains a bit of a Year in Review appetizer in the form of a Best 2025 Events Draft. The three briefly look back at the year and select their favorite highlights from the PGA Tour schedule and a few wildcards.
Che Guevara – the man whose name became a global symbol of rebellion and justice. Born in Argentina, Ernesto “Che” Guevara transformed from a curious medical student into a fearless revolutionary who challenged empires. His deep compassion for the poor and oppressed pushed him to fight alongside Fidel Castro in Cuba's liberation, where his courage, strategy, and leadership changed history. From the jungles of Cuba to the mountains of Congo and Bolivia, Che's relentless spirit inspired millions to dream of freedom. He was not just a guerilla commander but also a thinker, writer, and a voice for the voiceless. Even after his death, his words and image ignite revolutions of thought across continents. Che's life is a story of ideals, sacrifice, and the belief that one determined soul can change the fate of nations. KiranPrabha narrates the interesting life journey of Che Guevara in this multi part series. This is Part -13. Events happened in During 1966 November to 1967 March - Arrival in Bolivia - Base Camp Set up - Initial Problems with Team Members - Unexpected encounter with Military and victory are covered in this episode.

Valid Reasons for Raising Funding Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. There are many valid reasons for raising funding. Here's a list of reasons to consider for your fundraiser: The business is growing and is now ready to scale. It can be hard to bootstrap a scaling effort. There's a clear need for a minimum viable product to establish the product and market validation. It takes some funding to build an MVP. The startup is seeking to prepare for a Series A raise, and the metrics are not yet aligned with the target investor's fund requirements. It can take additional funding to prepare to raise a Series A with an institutional investor. Here are some reasons that are not valid: The founder needs a salary to pay rent. The founder wants to hire a number of people, but doesn't know exactly what they will do. The founder wants to quit their day job to work full-time on the startup. The founder doesn't want to spend time on sales and wants to hire someone else to do it for them. A valid reason to raise funding comes down to building a key deliverable for the startup. Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding. Let's go startup something today. _________________________________________________________ For more episodes from Investor Connect, please visit the site at: http://investorconnect.org Check out our other podcasts here: https://investorconnect.org/ For Investors check out: https://tencapital.group/investor-landing/ For Startups check out: https://tencapital.group/company-landing/ For eGuides check out: https://tencapital.group/education/ For upcoming Events, check out https://tencapital.group/events/ For Feedback please contact info@tencapital.group Please follow, share, and leave a review.

The debate over Eden Park events has reignited, as the Government has proposed letting it almost triple its annual concerts from 12 to 32. It's also recommending more timing flexibility, with the park currently unable to host events on a Sunday - and it's asking Auckland Council for feedback. Eden Park CEO Nick Sautner says they've engaged with the residents in the area to get their views, and they're hoping for a positive outcome. "There's a variety of events that are impacted by our regulations - last Sunday night, we had to apply to Auckland Council at a cost of $15,000 to get an extension to the operating so we could have the league fixture."

My guest on today's episode, Juan Pablo Guzman, shared how his sister's health struggles inspired the family to reconnect with real food, creating snacks that nourish both people and the planet.“Our whole family went on this collective journey of reconnecting to real food,” Juan explained, adding, “We became passionate about using food as a way to heal ourselves, our communities, and our planet.” Artisan Tropic launched in 2014 with plantain and cassava chips and recently expanded to include grain-free crackers made from cassava and plantain flour.But Artisan Tropic is about more than just snacks. Juan's commitment to sustainability and regenerative agriculture sets the company apart. He described their efforts to work directly with small farmers in Colombia, implementing farming practices that prioritize soil health, biodiversity, and fair wages. “Regenerative agriculture is really just doing things the way our grandparents did them,” he said. “It's farming in a way that supports life on the farm—soil life, plant life, and biodiversity.”In 2021, Artisan Tropic piloted a regenerative farming project on a family farm, integrating crops like plantain, cacao, and coffee. Now, through a partnership with Acceso, Artisan Tropic is scaling this model, supporting over 4,000 farmers with technical training, small loans, and guaranteed crop markets. “Within two years of working with Acceso, farmers are making twice as much as they used to,” Juan noted.Artisan Tropic is currently raising capital through a regulated investment crowdfunding campaign on WeFunder. The funds will help the company expand its retail presence with partners like Whole Foods and Costco. “What better way to put your money to work,” Juan asked, “not just for a financial return, but also for the triple impact that your investment unlocks in our supply system?”Listening to Juan's story, it's hard not to feel inspired. Artisan Tropic is more than a brand—it's a movement toward healthier snacks, sustainable farming, and a better future.tl;dr:Artisan Tropic began as a family mission to heal through real food and better nutrition.The company uses regenerative agriculture, supporting small farmers and sustainable farming practices in Colombia.Artisan Tropic's snacks, including plantain chips and grain-free crackers, prioritize health and sustainability.Juan Guzman's family values and love drive the company's mission and commitment to future generations.Artisan Tropic is crowdfunding on WeFunder to scale operations and expand its triple-impact model.How to Develop Love for Family As a SuperpowerJuan Guzman's superpower is his deep love for family, which drives his personal and professional life. As Juan explained, “My love for my family is my superpower. I try to be present. I try to love and I try to listen.” This unwavering commitment to family has shaped Artisan Tropic's mission, inspired its founding, and continues to influence how Juan leads the company. His dedication to creating a better food system stems from a desire to leave a legacy for his children and future generations.Illustrative Story:Juan shared a touching story about how his family's bond deepened over time. While living in New Mexico, he and his sister dreamed of being closer as a family. When Juan moved to Dallas, his sister, her family, and their parents followed, creating a close-knit community where their children could grow up together. “There's nothing that makes me happier than seeing the cousins playing together,” he said. This family cohesion inspires Juan to build a company that reflects their shared values of love, health, and sustainability.Tips for Developing This Superpower:Prioritize Presence: Be fully engaged with your loved ones by putting away distractions like phones.Foster Connection: Create opportunities to spend meaningful time with family, even across distances.Lead with Love: Let your love for family guide your decisions, personally and professionally.Think Generationally: Consider how your actions today can impact future generations.By following Juan's example and advice, you can make love for family a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.
