Anyone can bolt parts to a truck—but building a factory overlander is something else entirely. In this episode, recorded live at Overland Expo, we sit down with Dave Harriton, founder of AEV (American Expedition Vehicles), to explore what it actually takes to engineer an OEM-validated overland vehicle. From Jeep and Ram to full production lines at GM, Dave shares what goes into building expedition-ready platforms that roll straight off the assembly line—vehicles that have to meet the same durability, safety, and emissions standards as any other factory model. It's a rare look into the world where overlanding meets automotive engineering at scale—and why most aftermarket builds aren't playing the same game.

Caledonia Mining Corporation PLC (AIM:CMCL, NYSE-A:CMCL, VFEX:CMCL) CEO Mark Learmonth talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's improved production guidance for 2025 and its plans to diversify revenue streams, following its press release on 16 July. The cautionary note concerning forward-looking information in the announcement applies to the content of this video. Learmonth said the company produced just over 21,000oz of gold in the second quarter, slightly ahead of expectations, leading to an upgrade in full-year production guidance to between 75,500oz and 79,500oz. "The critical difference being that they spend much more time on the ground," Learmonth explained, referring to the newly restructured management team at Blanket Mine. This shift has enhanced two-way communication and operational oversight. Learmonth also discussed ongoing efforts to extend the mine's life through exploration at depth and the development of new areas adjacent to the existing footprint, including shallow drilling near Blanket and further exploration of the banded ironstone formation. He highlighted cost control as a major focus area, noting plans to optimise labour and reduce electricity consumption amid inflationary pressures on consumables. Additionally, the company is evaluating the Bilboes project to balance growth ambitions with prudent financial management.

Henry Hudson. We don't know too much about his life prior to becoming a captain for the Muscovy Company of England. In his life he would tale 4 voyages looking to reach the east coast of Asia. 3 of those 4 voyages would start out going east only to run into ice. 2 of those voyages would discover some very cool things in the western world that would take his name (Hudson River, Hudson River Valley, Hudson Strait, Hudson Bay). Interestingly enough, all of his even numbered voyages had some degree of mutiny. The first mutiny-lite forced him to find a new country to sail for. His 4th and final voyage would return to England without him aboard. We don't know exactly what happened. What we know for sure is there is no way of knowing how or where Henry Hudson took his final breath. That mystery still lives on today. Join us as we get Historically High on Henry Hudson.

HIGHLIGHTS“The continuity, depth, and scale of the structures we're seeing suggest the original mine was just the tip of the iceberg.” — Gordon Robb, CEO, ESGold Corp.District-scale potential: 1,200m deep structures may indicate a much larger system beneath the historic mineDual-track upside: Near-term gold-silver production alongside deep exploration potentialLow-risk entry to cash flow: Fully permitted tailings operation means no big CAPEXNo dilution model: Exploration to be funded by internal cash flow, not equity raisesHigh-margin profile: Surface tailings allow for low capex and rapid paybackTop-tier jurisdiction: Located in mining-friendly Quebec with strong infrastructureWith gold reaching all-time highs in both USD and CAD, ESGold Corp. (CSE: ESAU | OTCQB: ESAUF) is emerging as a rare junior with both near-term cash flow and long-term exploration potential. The company is advancing toward gold-silver production at its fully permitted Montauban Project in Quebec, while newly released subsurface data points to a potentially district-scale system beneath the historic mine.In its latest technical update, ESGold reported the identification of geological structures extending to depths of 1,200 metres — far beyond previously mined zones — based on results from advanced seismic imaging.NEW TECH UNLOCKS OLD GROUNDThe discovery was made using Ambient Noise Tomography (ANT), a modern, non-invasive technique that maps subsurface structures using naturally occurring seismic waves. This method allows ESGold to model underground features without drilling, minimizing cost and surface impact. The early results suggest the Montauban system may be significantly more extensive than previously believed.“We're seeing signatures that resemble the structural architecture of globally significant systems — but we are still in the early stages of exploration.” — André Gauthier, Director of Exploration, ESGold Corp.PATH TO PRODUCTION ALREADY IN MOTIONWhile exploration potential is expanding, ESGold remains focused on near-term production. The company is fully permitted and in the midst of facility construction, targeting initial operations by late 2025. By processing surface tailings — already stockpiled — ESGold aims to generate early revenue with minimal capex and no underground mining.The newly expanded 4,000 sq. ft. processing facility is being designed to handle 500–1,000 tonnes per day. An updated Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA), expected by the end of summer, will reflect current metals pricing and provide further economic detail.DE-RISKED EXPLORATION FUNDED BY CASH FLOWUnlike many exploration juniors dependent on public financings, ESGold intends to use its production-generated cash flow to support future drilling. This strategy helps preserve shareholder value and reduces dilution. A 3D geological model, incorporating data from the ANT survey and historical drilling, is in development and will guide next-phase targeting.A JUNIOR WITH MAJOR AMBITIONESGold is positioning itself to become both a producer and a long-term explorer — a rare dual capability in the small-cap mining sector. With construction progressing, a PEA pending, and district-scale potential under evaluation, the company is entering a high-catalyst phase.Watch the full CEO interview with Gordon Robb on AGORACOM to learn how ESGold is transforming historic ground into a modern growth story in Canadian gold.

Some subjects are way too dicey address publicly - electrified third rail subjects which zap anyone who approaches it. But Blake Cohn is not afraid of third rails. In fact, he recently launched a podcast that is dedicated exclusively to the untouchable "Third Rails" of Judaism. Fittingly, his show was called "Third Rail Judaism", where he explores and ponders some of the forbidden subjects that others are too scared to tackle. I was honored when Blake asked me to be interviewed for the first episode, an exploration of the kidnapping and assault of Dina, daughter of Jacob.

The Balance Between Logic and FaithIn this episode of the Zach Schuenke podcast, Zach discusses the complex interplay between logic, reason, and faith. He reflects on how too much reliance on logic can sometimes be a hindrance in life, business, and personal relationships. Using various examples, including a scene from the movie 'iRobot' and personal experiences, Zach illustrates how self-confidence and faith can often lead to success where logic alone might instill doubt and prevent action. He also shares his views on the importance of investing in skills and taking calculated risks, emphasizing the role of self-belief and external factors. Zach concludes with a personal note on gratitude, faith, and perseverance.00:00 Introduction and Topic Overview00:47 The Concept of Logic and Reason01:15 Illustration with iRobot04:47 Real-Life Implications of Logic and Reason05:37 Logic and Reason in Business and Faith07:17 Overcoming Self-Doubt and Embracing Confidence09:48 The Importance of Balance in Logic and Reason24:48 Personal Reflections and Gratitude25:58 Conclusion and Final Thoughts
It's easy to get caught up in the business of overlanding and forget to actually travel. But Basil Lynch never stopped. In this episode, we sit down with the founder of Basil's Garage—an overland outfitter based in San Diego—to talk about why staying on the road matters more than ever. From international travel to local weekend getaways, Basil's real-world experience continues to shape how he builds vehicles, advises clients, and runs his shop. We dig into his background, his favorite travel moments, and why firsthand experience is still the best way to know what gear works—and what doesn't. This is a reminder that in an industry built on adventure, the best advice still comes from those who live it.

In this episode, we have a returning guest who last appeared on the show back in July 2023 (Ep 360). Scott Williamson, MD of Blackstone Minerals, a listed mining company who are developing a high-grade undeveloped copper-gold porphyry projects in the world and is uniquely positioned to capitalise on the untapped potential of the Mankayan Copper-Gold Project in the Philippines. Scott is a mining engineer by background, working in operations and corporate roles during his career and has exposure to corporate finance and capital markets, investor relations, and project management during his career. He has been at the helm of Blackstone for nearly 8 years now and gives us an update since he was last on, discusses the Mankayan project, talks about gold and copper porphyry, and what the Philippines is like as a mining jurisdiction, and more. KEY TAKEAWAYS The current copper market is experiencing tight supply due to increasing demand driven by electrification and the transition to electric vehicles. This has resulted in high copper prices Blackstone Minerals plans to conduct extensive exploration, aiming to drill around 50,000 meters over the next 12 to 18 months. This includes systematic exploration techniques to identify new ore bodies Strong community relations have been established, with previous owners successfully engaging local stakeholders. Blackstone has inherited a solid foundation, including a 25-year mining license and agreements with indigenous communities The project offers multiple development pathways, including the potential for a smaller-scale operation focusing on high-grade ore, which could generate cash flow to support larger-scale mining in the future BEST MOMENTS "Copper is probably the tightest copper concentrate market the world has ever seen... Unfortunately, the supply is quite limited, and it takes a long time to bring copper mines online." "This particular ore body has already got 10 million ounces of gold and another 10 million ounces of gold equivalent in copper... It's already a world-class scale." "We want to drill around 50,000 meters... We want to do a lot of drilling, but we also want to do that systematic exploration." "The good thing is that we're not just inheriting a world-class ore body, we're inheriting all of that great work that the previous owners have done."

For fans of the compelling critical and investigative style of best-selling authors Graham Hancock and Brian Muraresku, the first detailed account of the history and science of the world's strangest and most mysterious drug - DMT.DMT is the world's strangest and most mysterious drug, inducing one of the most remarkable and yet least understood of all states of consciousness. This common plant molecule has, from ancient times to the modern day, been used as a tool to gain access to a bizarre alien reality of inordinate complexity and unimaginable strangeness, populated by a panoply of highly advanced, intelligent, and communicative beings entirely not of this world.In a story that begins in the Amazonian rainforests and ends somewhere beyond the stars, Andrew Gallimore presents the first detailed account of the discovery of DMT and science's continuing struggle to explain how such a simple and common plant molecule can have such astonishing effects on the human mind. The history of the drug involves many fascinating characters from the scientific and literary worlds ― including legendary ethnobotanist Dr. Richard Schultes; renegade beat writer and drug aficionado William S. Burroughs; philosopher and raconteur Terence McKenna; and the high priest of the 1960s psychedelic revolution, Dr. Timothy Leary. In the end, the story of DMT forces us to reconsider our most basic assumptions about the nature of reality and our place within it.ANDREW R. GALLIMORE is a chemical pharmacologist, neurobiologist, and writer, and one of the world's leading experts on psychedelics. He is the author of two books on the science of psychedelics, Alien Information Theory: Psychedelic Drug Technologies and the Cosmic Game and Reality Switch Technologies: Psychedelics as Tools for the Discovery and Exploration of New Worlds. He lives and works in Tokyo.GRAHAM HANCOCK is the author of major international non-fiction bestsellers including The Sign and the Seal and Fingerprints of the Gods. His books have sold more than seven million copies worldwide and have been translated into thirty languages. His public lectures, radio and TV appearances, including the TV series Quest For The Lost Civilization and Flooded Kingdoms of the Ice Age, as well as his strong presence on the internet, have put his ideas before audiences of tens of millions. He resides in the UK.www.buildingalienworlds.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/earth-ancients--2790919/support.

WAITING FOR THE CAPTAIN COOK OF MARS: 1/8: The Wide Wide Sea: Imperial Ambition, First Contact and the Fateful Final Voyage of Captain James Cook Hardcover – April 9, 2024 by Hampton Sides (Author) 1930 COOK https://www.amazon.com/Wide-Sea-Imperial-Ambition-Contact/dp/0385544766/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&dib_tag=se&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.xvSnWMwZwkRk3nB_oha-u7YL0k9kTC4voIQCoSWDz75eZXBRk_ZvRqUZ_P6pMaemKHJ8AhEdiyCpLrikQsp9iSIHNpX0v0n71kJqmCUW1VujrRMuDnenOyoWd5NtaDroImV4hSJ-hXf41L0HQmBS2q4Ws_PUqdVAXpvxskDgbzkPGE54c4xCqXxznyoRsahmmC7zXsNKkmipQCOKWZt728zHdG1ntVV4xSjkKJdX0v4.qQvWTGgLh4U5mw9t7ELNeecNVMkHQl35VNFyULPNX4g&qid=1720822146&sr=8-1 On July 12th, 1776, Captain James Cook, already lionized as the greatest explorer in British history, set off on his third voyage in his ship the HMS Resolution. Two-and-a-half years later, on a beach on the island of Hawaii, Cook was killed in a conflict with native Hawaiians. How did Cook, who was unique among captains for his respect for Indigenous peoples and cultures, come to that fatal moment? Hampton Sides' bravura account of Cook's last journey both wrestles with Cook's legacy and provides a thrilling narrative of the titanic efforts and continual danger that characterized exploration in the 1700s. Cook was renowned for his peerless seamanship, his humane leadership, and his dedication to science-–the famed naturalist Joseph Banks accompanied him on his first voyage, and Cook has been called one of the most important figures of the Age of Enlightenment. He was also deeply interested in the native people he encountered. In fact, his stated mission was to return a Tahitian man, Mai, who had become the toast of London, to his home islands. On previous expeditions, Cook mapped huge swaths of the Pacific, including the east coast of Australia, and initiated first European contact with numerous peoples. He treated his crew well, and endeavored to learn about the societies he encountered with curiosity and without judgment. Yet something was different on this last voyage. Cook became mercurial, resorting to the lash to enforce discipline, and led his two vessels into danger time and again. Uncharacteristically, he ordered violent retaliation for perceived theft on the part of native peoples. This may have had something to do with his secret orders, which were to chart and claim lands before Britain's imperial rivals could, and to discover the fabled Northwest Passage. Whatever Cook's intentions, his scientific efforts were the sharp edge of the colonial sword, and the ultimate effects of first contact were catastrophic for Indigenous people around the world. The tensions between Cook's overt and covert missions came to a head on the shores of Hawaii. His first landing there was harmonious, but when Cook returned after mapping the coast of the Pacific Northwest and Alaska, his exploitative treatment of the Hawaiians led to the fatal encounter. At once a ferociously-paced story of adventure on the high seas and a searching examination of the complexities and consequences of the Age of Exploration, THE WIDE WIDE SEA is a major work from one of our finest narrative nonfiction writers.
