*(Note Part One of this episode)New Moon Lunar Cycle Themes:  Expansion, Exploration, New Perspective through Wisdom, Spiritual Renewal. The conjunction of the Sun and Moon, “Dark Moon” part of the lunar cycle is powerful and focused as a portal toward immense changes on both a personal and collective level in 2026 This lunar cycle is especially impactful and meaningful because it is coupled with the winter Solstice in the Northern hemisphere, and the summer Solstice in the Southern hemisphere. The solstice energy is a messenger of truth, clarity and inner wisdom.  It places tremendous emphasis on relinquishing the past, while trusting in the possibilities of the future which are yet unseen and unknown. This Moon offers both inner focus, and the opportunity to experience worldly experiences through connection to Cosmic Source. Guidance through trusting intuitive insights, from the well of personal inspiration, is the key for moving toward greater and higher vibrational consciousness.During this lunar cycle, the awareness of growth, expansion, plenty, and abundance are under major consideration.  Even as we look out and observe the erroneous beliefs and falsehoods into the collective society, it's absolutely critical to dream one's own big dreams.  The sign of Sagittarius is about believing in your own  inner awareness and wisdom that connects with authentic understanding which supports dignity, respect, freedom and sovereignty for every person.This New Moon and  Solstice connections are placing emphasis on listening to yourself.  It is time to forge a personal path that does not rely on asking someone else what you “should” or need to do.  The New Moon offers opportunity to gather awareness of new intentions, while the solstice's "return to light" energy is a gateway for deeper self-realization.  Four Key Questions for 2026 DirectionWhat is your "Philosophy of Life"?How will you embrace your values and inspiration through intuitive awareness?How will you seek new meaning for yourself, as you envision experiences and possibilities that await you in the coming months?Are you willing to be the "Truth-teller", to be honest and open to the "Wisdom within yourself"?*Please enjoy Part Two of this episode:  "Sound Alchemy" with Kathy H.

At the turn of the 20th century, millions of Americans, including elite scientists, major newspapers, and cultural icons, were convinced that Mars was home to an advanced civilization. In this episode, Michael Shermer speaks with award-winning science journalist David Baron about one of the most astonishing episodes in scientific-cultural history. Blurry telescopes, mistranslated words, and persuasive personalities transformed speculation into accepted fact, while more cautious scientists struggled to be heard. The discussion covers Percival Lowell's Martian canals, Nikola Tesla's claim to have detected signals from another planet, and the role of mass media and early science fiction in fueling public belief. The episode also connects this forgotten moment to present-day debates about UFOs, alien megastructures, and the search for extraterrestrial intelligence, raising broader questions about how scientific ideas spread and why some claims capture the public imagination. David Baron is an award-winning journalist, broadcaster, and author. A former science correspondent for NPR, he has also written for The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, The Los Angeles Times, Scientific American, and other publications. David recently served as the Baruch S. Blumberg NASA/Library of Congress Chair in Astrobiology, Exploration, and Scientific Innovation. His new book is The Martians: The True Story of an Alien Craze that Captured Turn-of-the-Century America.

In this thought-provoking podcast episode, Angela and special guest, Peter Crone, delve into the challenges women face in reconciling their achievements with feelings of inadequacy.  They explore the concept of the "hungry ghost," where external success fails to address deeper internal beliefs of not being enough. The discussion emphasises the importance of shifting from a mindset of searching for validation to one of exploring possibilities, highlighting that true peace and joy come from within, rather than from external circumstances KEY TAKEAWAYS: Inner Perspective vs. External Success: Achieving external success does not necessarily change one's internal beliefs about self-worth.  The Concept of the "Hungry Ghost": This term illustrates the idea that individuals can never feel satisfied with external achievements if they have unresolved internal beliefs of inadequacy.  Exploration vs. Searching: There is a distinction between searching, which stems from feelings of lack, and exploring, which is rooted in joy and curiosity.  Freedom and Joy as States of Being: Freedom and joy are not dependent on external circumstances but are states of mind.  TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: [00:02:01] Inner peace vs. external success. [00:03:58] Exploring vs. Searching. [00:08:08] Imagination and personal potential.

Tim Shearcroft,  CEO and Co-Founder of BP Silver Corp. (TSXV: BPAG), joins me for a comprehensive introduction to this newly listed silver and polymetallic exploration company focused on exploration of their flagship asset, the Cosuño Project; which is strategically located in the prolific Bolivian silver belt. Additionally, the Company is working on finalizing the title at their Titiri Project, located in a major under-explored silver belt with Tier 1 discovery potential.   We start off getting an overview of how the Company, projects, and team came together privately and then it was just publicly listed on September 29th of this year.  We discuss the prospectivity of Bolivia for mineral exploration and exploitation, the handful of companies that have made solid advancements on their projects in country, and how the political administration has recently changed to become more amenable to foreign business investment and mineral extraction.    Next we get into the details announced on December 17th, highlighting the successful completion of its Phase 1 diamond drilling program at the Cosuño Silver Project, located in the Department of Potosí, Bolivia. A total of 11 diamond drill holes totaling 906 meters were completed, testing four high-priority targets in the lithocap that may host an epithermal silver deposit. Samples from the first two drill holes have been submitted to an independent geochemical laboratory for analysis. Final core logging, sample preparation, and shipment of the remaining samples will be completed prior to the conclusion of the program later in December, with initial assay results expected in early January 2026.   Additionally, their team is working with the government to finalize obtaining the title to begin exploration on their Titiri Project.   Titiri was staked over a large land concession containing outcropping mineralization historically explored by ASARCO.  This Project contains a 2.5km-long silver-lead-zinc zone, with excellent historical trench results, that was never drilled. Titiri is a very High Priority structural setting at the intersection of several major crustal-scale faults, along which multiple deposits occur.  There is a MOU in place with local communities, and they'd like to get on the ground for exploration in mid-2026.   Wrapping up, Tim shared his background and the experience of their strong technical team and with a substantial experience exploring and operating in Bolivia and Latin America. We covered the financial health of the company, share structure and warrants, and envisioned work strategy and plan moving into next year.   If you have any questions for Tim regarding BP Silver, then please email those into me at Shad@kereport.com.   Click here to follow the latest news for BP Silver   For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

[Recorded December 17th, 2025]:  Erik Wetterling, Founder and Editor of The Hedgeless Horseman website, joins me to update us on the value proposition he see in 3 gold exploration stocks, based around recent press releases and milestones.   He sees this newsflow and fundamental catalysts as much more relevant for any changes to the company's valuation (either up or down), rather than the improving sentiment within the backdrop of rising underlying precious metals price environment.      The companies we discuss in this interview are:     Amex Exploration Inc. (TSXV: AMX) (FSE: MX0) (OTCQX: AMXEF) – On December 16th announced the closing of its acquisition of a 100% undivided interest in the 324 non-contiguous mining claims comprising 8,392.92 hectares in the Abbotsford and Hepburn Townships in the province of Ontario. These adjacent Abbotsford and Hepburn Projects will compliment their land concessions at their flagship Perron Gold Project in Quebec. Additionally, on December 17th, Eric Sprott announced that, 2176423 Ontario Ltd., a corporation beneficially owned by him, sold 14,868,200 common shares of Amex Exploration Inc., through a private agreement, at $4.00 per Share for total consideration of $59,472,800.   On the same day, Eldorado Gold Corporation (TSX: ELD) (NYSE: EGO) acquired ownership of 14,868,200 common shares of Amex Exploration Inc. at a price per Share of C$4.00, for total consideration of C$59,472,800, pursuant to a private agreement with a third party (which were Eric Sprott's shares).      First Nordic Metals Corp. (TSXV: FNM) (FNSE: FNMC SDB) (OTCQX: FNMCF) and Mawson Finland Limited (TSXV: MFL) (FRA: PM6) – On Dec. 16, 2025 announced the successful closing of the previously announced acquisition by First Nordic of all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Mawson by way of a court-approved plan of arrangement. The Transaction consolidates a large and prospective gold development and exploration portfolio in Sweden and Finland, including First Nordic's Barsele Project, a joint venture with Agnico Eagle Mines Limited and its Gold Line Belt projects in northern Sweden and Oijärvi Project in Finland, and Mawson's Rajapalot Project and surrounding Rompas-Rajapalot Property in northern Finland. In connection with the Transaction, the Company will change its name to Goldsky Resources Corp., subject to receipt of the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.     FireFox Gold Corp. (TSX.V:FFOX) (OTCQB:FFOXF) – On December 8, 2025 reported results from an additional four holes of its 2025/26 diamond drilling program at the Company's 100%-held Mustajärvi Gold Project in Lapland, Finland. Drill hole 25MJ005 is among the best holes yet drilled on the property, extending both shallow and deeper high-grade gold zones well to the west from previous drilling at the East Zone.    We went on to speculate on how Agnico Eagle may be willing to negotiate turning over their JV interest on  Barsele in Sweden with First Nordic, to focus on a regional consolidation in Finland of Firefox, Rupert, and Aurion into a district camp.   Agnico already has a strategic position in both Rupert and Firefox.   * In full disclosure, the companies mentioned by Erik in this interview, are positions held in his personal portfolio, and also may be site sponsors of The Hedgeless Horseman website at the time of this recording.   Click here to visit Erik's site – The Hedgeless Horseman   Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

Leila Rahimi and Marshall Harris discussed a variety of sports topics in the 5 On It segment.

Kenorland Minerals CEO Zach Flood comments: “The maiden mineral resource estimate (2.55 Moz Gold @ 5.47 g/t) of the Regnault gold deposit firmly underpins the value of Kenorland and our 4% NSR royalty. Achieved in under five years from grassroots discovery, at a low discovery cost of roughly $20 per ounce, Regnault has emerged as a high-grade, multi-million-ounce gold deposit that remains wide open for expansion. Discoveries of this magnitude are rare and given the relatively modest amount of drilling completed to date, substantial upside potential remains. We're immensely proud to have reached this milestone in close collaboration with our partners at Sumitomo and look forward to their continued leadership of the Project moving forward. The Frotet Royalty now stands as one of the highest-quality royalty assets in the junior sector and will continue to be a clear driver of long-term value for Kenorland shareholders.” Kenorland looks to identify gaps in exploration maturity within prospective districts based on large scale compilation and integration of geological, geochemical and geophysical data. Kenorland's management team and advisors have extensive experience in project and target generation from continent-wide area selection to deposit scale exploration across the globe. Combining the team's extensive exploration experience with an integrated approach places Kenorland in an optimal position to generate shareholder wealth through JV partnerships, generated royalties, equity positions and new discoveries. https://www.kenorlandminerals.com/ TSXV: KLD | OTCQX: KLDCF | FSE: 3WQ0 0:00 Intro 00:47 Maiden Regnault Mineral Resource Estimate 01:06 Exploration and Joint Ventures with Sumitomo 03:49 Valuation and Market Response 05:31 Future Prospects and Developments 09:25 South Uchi Project 11:10 Financial Position and Partner Funding 15:53 Closing Remarks Press release discussed: https://www.kenorlandminerals.com/news/2025/kenorland-minerals-reports-maiden-inferred-resource-of-145-mt-at-547-gt-au-for-255-million-ounces-at-the-frotet-project-quebec-where-it-holds-a-4-nsr-royalty Sign up for our free newsletter and receive interview transcripts, stock profiles and investment ideas: http://eepurl.com/cHxJ39 Sponsor Kenorland Minerals paid Mining Stock Education a United States dollar ten thousand per month coverage fee.

In this update, Bob Archer, CEO of Pinnacle Silver & Gold (TSX-V:PINN | OTCQB:PSGCF), outlines the roadmap for the company's first-ever drill program at the El Potrero project in Mexico. Following extensive sampling that averaged 8.5 g/t AuEq, the company is now moving into site preparation. This initial campaign is unique, as it focuses on delineation drilling - defining the size and shape of known high-grade shoots from within existing mine workings rather than speculative exploration. Exploration & Development Roadmap Underground Preparation: January is dedicated to enlarging drill stations and site safety (scaling/bolting). The Drill Program: A 112-hole campaign (2,600m) consisting of short, 20–25m holes designed to define grade distribution and vein thickness every 12.5 meters. Surface Targets: Following the underground work, drilling will move to surface to test the 500m gap between historic mines and additional veins like El Capulin. Fully Funded: The company is currently closing a C$2.52M financing to cover both the underground and surface programs through 2026.   Please email me with any follow up questions you have for Bob - Fleck@kereport.com.   Click here to visit the Pinnacle Silver and Gold website to learn more about the company and read over the recent news    ---------------------- For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks: The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/ Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

Stan Deyo is a renowned researcher, author, and explorer whose work bridges ancient history, geology, cartography, and alternative archaeology. In The Discovery of the Garden of Eden and Atlantis, Deyo presents a provocative investigation into humanity's lost origins, challenging conventional historical timelines and academic assumptions. Drawing upon ancient texts, early maps, geological evidence, and comparative mythology, he proposes possible real-world locations for both the biblical Garden of Eden and the legendary civilization of Atlantis.

We explore Ecclesiastes 10 with vivid images—dead flies in perfume, a fatal leap from the Eiffel Tower—to show how “small” follies corrode trust, reshape direction, and eventually announce themselves through our actions. This isn't about fear-mongering; it's about the kind of uncommon common sense that protects what matters most: integrity, clarity, and a life anchored in truth.We walk through three unforgettable illustrations of folly and turn them into practical guardrails: how tiny compromises stain a good name, why a heart trained by God's Word leans toward blessing and stability, and how behavior reveals belief long before we speak. Along the way, we contrast the modern chase for meaning—hedonism, nihilism, self-made purpose, and even cosmic searches for life—with the grounded wisdom of Scripture. Exploration and sincerity are good; a faulty premise is not. When we ignore the Creator, we jump with a broken parachute, then call it courage.The conversation culminates with a clear invitation from Jesus: “I am the light of the world.” Wisdom is not just advice; it's a Person who brings forgiveness, authority, and hope. If your reputation feels fragile, if your inner compass drifts, or if your actions keep telling a story you don't want to live, this message offers a reset. Guard your heart.

Mens Room Question: For better or worse, how are you like your parents, or what do you not do because your parents did?

BDSM and kink lifestyle educators often talk about the importance of education. It is not surprising that educators discuss education, but what happens when fiction replaces facts, fantasy supplants safety, and consent takes a backseat to raw, primal desire? Could it result in a D/S scene filled with orgasmic delights? It could, but this is BDSM, where activities come with risk from small to life-altering or even ending. The more play that happens between those without proper training, the risks skyrocket, and informed consent becomes impossible, as there is no knowledge base to provide informed consent. Studies show there is an alarming trend in the world of BDSM and kink where pornography is moving from entertainment andinspiration into the role of educator. The spicy content has not changed, but how it is viewed by those consuming it has. Find out what research shows about the trend of porn as a BDSM and kink educator. Sources: Prevalence of Sexual Strangulation/Choking Among Australians Authors: Leah S.
