A part of a series of exclusive interviews with men's basketball's newest arrivals, Matt Zimmerman sits down with Finnish standout and five-star forward Miikka Muurinen to discuss the international journey that brought him to Arkansas. From growing up around basketball in Finland with two former player parents, to training in Spain, Serbia, Kansas, and Arizona, Muurinen reflects on the experiences that shaped his smooth, versatile game and calm confidence. He opens up about building chemistry with Arkansas' highly touted freshman class, why loyalty from Coach Calipari's staff made Arkansas feel like the obvious choice, and the balance between European skill basketball and the physical American style of play. Muurinen also talks about his competitive fire, his love for winning, the "Slim Jesus" nickname that exploded online, and the excitement of eventually playing in front of a packed Bud Walton Arena. The conversation gives Razorback fans an early look at the maturity, poise, and high-level upside that make Miikka Muurinen one of the most intriguing newcomers in college basketball. -------- The full video version of this episode is available exclusively on HogsPlus.com Follow us on social media!

Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Dr. Melanye “Dr. Mac.” Maclin joins Rushion McDonald to discuss the serious health risks associated with hair relaxers, permanent dyes, and synthetic braids—particularly among Black women. Drawing from over 25 years of research and patient experience, she explains how chemicals used in these products absorb through the scalp, disrupt hormones, and significantly increase the risks of breast cancer, ovarian cancer, uterine cancer, early puberty, fibroids, and infertility. The conversation also highlights systemic resistance from the beauty industry, government agencies, and even consumers themselves—primarily due to financial incentives and lack of awareness. Dr. Mac advocates for safer hair practices, increased education, and protective measures to reduce exposure. She also discusses her pioneering internal hair‑health supplements, Bella Nutri, for women (2004) and men (2008), and how she helped introduce the U.S. market to nutritional hair support long before it was mainstream. Purpose of the Interview The purpose of the interview is to: 1. Educate listeners about the hidden health dangers …of chemical hair treatments including relaxers, permanent dyes, and synthetic hair containing benzene. 2. Advocate for informed hair‑care decisions Dr. Mac wants women—especially Black women—to understand how beauty practices impact long‑term health. 3. Encourage the beauty industry to adopt safety protocols Such as scalp protection, warning labels, and honest communication about risks. 4. Highlight Dr. Mac’s work and products Including her Bella Nutri supplements and educational platforms (Ask Dr. Mac). 5. Empower parents to protect children By avoiding chemical treatments on young girls whose bodies are especially vulnerable. Key Takeaways 1. Chemical relaxers and permanent hair dyes are strongly linked to increased cancer risks. Permanent dyes raise the risk of breast, uterine, and ovarian cancer. Black women exhibit a 45% increased risk of breast cancer when using permanent dyes. Combining dyes with relaxers significantly compounds the danger. 2. The danger comes from chemical absorption into the scalp. Relaxer chemicals include sodium, calcium, guanine, and lithium hydroxide. These chemicals burn through the scalp, entering the bloodstream and disrupting hormones, leading to early puberty, fibroids, infertility, and cancer. 3. Synthetic braiding hair contains benzene—a carcinogen. Benzene exposure affects both the stylist and the client. Risks include lung cancer and leukemia. 4. The beauty industry resists change because of profit. Salons rarely display warnings because “it affects business.” The relaxer–damage→hair‑loss→extensions cycle creates a lucrative revenue loop. 5. Children are especially vulnerable to chemical exposure. Relaxers on children under 10 can cause: early puberty fibroids infertility early hysterectomies increased cancer risk Dr. Mac advises never relaxing a child’s hair, but if done, the product must stay on no more than 5–10 minutes with complete scalp protection. 6. Scalp protection is essential for anyone still using relaxers. Use petroleum jelly over the entire scalp, not just the hairline. This reduces chemical absorption during both application and rinsing. 7. Dr. Mac pioneered the U.S. hair‑supplement industry. Developed Bella Nutri after research with a Finnish company (Scalp). Initially dismissed as a “witch doctor,” but now the hair‑supplement market is mainstream. 8. She refuses to participate in relaxer‑related lawsuits. Because she has warned people for 20+ years, she cannot ethically testify for those who ignored repeated warnings. Notable Quotes On the impact of chemicals: “The chemicals burn through the scalp… getting into the main bloodstream and causing hormone disruption.” On the increased cancer risk: “African‑Americans have a more than 45% increased risk when we use permanent hair dyes.” On synthetic braids: “As long as that synthetic hair is on her head, she is breathing in benzene.” On industry pushback: “People are about the green‑eyed devil called money.” On relaxing children’s hair: “Hopefully a mother doesn’t take her child to get a relaxer.” “Hair chemicals can lead to early puberty, fibroids, infertility, even hysterectomies before age 40.” On the vicious cycle of damage and profit: “It’s a 360‑degree money‑making cycle.” On caring more than her patients: “I feel like I’m caring more about someone’s health than they are caring about their own.” On pioneering supplements: “Hair and skin are internal organs—they manifest externally.” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Lasse Vieren, een iconische naam in de Olympische geschiedenis, staat centraal in deze aflevering. Wij bespreken zijn opmerkelijke prestaties tijdens de Olympische Spelen van München in 1972 en Montreal in 1976, waarbij hij zowel de 10.000 als de 5.000 meter won. Vieren's legendarische val tijdens de finale van de 10.000 meter, gevolgd door zijn terugkeer en overwinning in wereldrecordtijd, illustreert de veerkracht en vastberadenheid van een atleet. Bovendien worden de controverses rondom zijn prestaties en beschuldigingen van bloeddoping belicht, waarbij zijn onmiskenbare talent en de context van zijn successen worden geanalyseerd. Deze aflevering biedt niet alleen een diepgaande verkenning van Vieren's atletische erfenis, maar ook een reflectie op de bredere implicaties van integriteit in de sport. The illustrious career of Lasse Vieren, an athlete who transcended the boundaries of distance running, is at the forefront of this discussion. Vieren's remarkable feats at the 1972 Munich and 1976 Montreal Olympics not only cemented his status as a champion but also revitalized the enduring legacy of Finland's distance running prowess. In Munich, during the 10,000-meter final, Vieren's unexpected fall could have signaled the end of his race; however, displaying remarkable resilience, he rose to reclaim his pace and ultimately triumphed, achieving a world record time of 27 minutes and 38.35 seconds. This extraordinary comeback not only highlighted his athleticism but also epitomized the spirit of determination that characterizes elite athletes. Furthermore, just ten days later, he claimed victory in the 5,000 meters, thereby reestablishing Finland's identity as a powerhouse in long-distance running, reminiscent of the legendary Flying Finns from the early 20th century. The narrative continues to evolve as we delve into Vieren's performance at the 1976 Montreal Olympics, where he replicated his success by securing gold medals in both the 5,000 and 10,000 meters. This unprecedented achievement marked him as a dual Olympic champion, a feat that has become increasingly rare in modern athletics. However, subsequent scrutiny arose around allegations of blood doping, an issue that has tainted the legacies of many athletes. Despite the absence of definitive proof against Vieren, the whispers of suspicion surrounding his training methods lingered, casting a shadow over his accomplishments. Notably, the conversation extends to how the perception of athletic integrity has shifted over time, particularly regarding the rigorous standards expected of Olympic competitors. In concluding our exploration of Lasse Vieren's legacy, we reflect upon the dichotomy between his monumental achievements and the persistent questions regarding the ethical implications of performance-enhancing practices in sports. His eventual foray into politics and public service further adds layers to his storied life, suggesting that the journey of an athlete often extends beyond mere competition. Vieren's story serves as a profound reminder of the complexities of athleticism, the pressures of public scrutiny, and the rich tapestry of human experience that defines the world of sports. The narrative of Lasse Vieren, a name synonymous with resilience in the annals of Olympic history, unfolds through a detailed examination of his extraordinary performances at the 1972 Munich and 1976 Montreal Olympics. Vieren's ascent to prominence is marked by his remarkable achievements in the 10,000 meters, where he not only faced physical challenges but also overcame the psychological barriers that accompany elite competition. His notable fall during the Munich final could have been a defining moment of defeat; however, his ability to recover and finish with a world record time is emblematic of the tenacity that characterizes elite athletes. This moment transcends mere athleticism, serving as a narrative of hope and determination that resonated deeply within the Finnish national identity and rekindled the mythos of the Flying Finns. Further exploration of Vieren's career reveals his triumphs in Montreal, where he once again showcased his dominance by claiming gold in both the 5,000 and 10,000 meters. This unprecedented achievement positions him as a figure of dual excellence, a rarity in the contemporary landscape of athletics. However, this narrative is not without its complexities; the allegations of blood doping that surfaced post-Montreal have cast a pall over his legacy. The dialogue surrounding these accusations invites a broader reflection on the ethical implications of performance enhancement in sports, as well as the pressures that athletes face in their pursuit of greatness. The historical context of these discussions, particularly concerning the Scandinavian doping practices, adds to the intrigue of Vieren's story and challenges the notion of uncompromised athletic integrity. In conclusion, Lasse Vieren's legacy is a multifaceted tapestry woven with threads of triumph, controversy, and resilience. His later endeavors in public service illustrate a life that extends beyond the realm of athletics, suggesting that the journey of an athlete often intertwines with broader societal narratives. Vieren's story serves as a reminder of the complexities inherent in the world of sports, where the pursuit of excellence is often accompanied by scrutiny and ethical dilemmas. As we reflect on his contributions to athletics and the discussions surrounding his legacy, it becomes evident that the essence of Vieren's journey embodies the spirit of perseverance amidst adversity, a narrative that continues to inspire future generations.Takeaways:In aflevering 38 bespreken we de iconische atleet Lasse Vieren en zijn prestaties.Lasse Vieren won zowel de 10.000 als de 5.000 meter op de Olympische Spelen.De opmerkelijke overwinning van Vieren in München omvatte een val en een wereldrecord.De beschuldigingen van bloeddoping hebben de erfenis van Lasse Vieren omgeven.Vieren's stoïcijnse karakter droeg bij aan zijn mythische status in de sportgeschiedenis.De focus van Vieren op de Olympische Spelen maakt hem een unieke kampioenschapsloper.Companies mentioned in this episode:Puma

In this third episode of The Helsinki Brief: Inside Finnish Intelligence and Security, Dr Paul McGarr (King's College London) is joined again by Hannamiina Tanninen of the Finnish Security and Intelligence Service (SUPO) to explore Finland's 'comprehensive security' model — a point of reference in international debates on resilience. They unpack what “comprehensive security” means in practice: an all-of-society approach designed to keep Finland functioning as normally as possible during crises, from major disruptions and natural disasters to heightened security threats. The conversation looks at how the model is embedded across government, the private sector and civil society — and why joint exercises, consultation and coordination are central to making it work. The episode also looks at the foundations that make this approach work in Finland — including high public trust, the welfare state, a broad-based education system and mandatory conscription — as well as the role of the National Emergency Supply Agency. Finally, the discussion considers which elements of the Finnish model might be transferable elsewhere — and which are rooted in Finland's specific history, size and social cohesion. Hannamiina Tanninen is a doctoral researcher at the National Defence University in Finland, researching on modelling the strategic environment of the Finnish security of supply system with emphasis on defining economic intelligence and economic security in intelligence studies. She is also a visiting researcher at Imperial College London.

BONUS: The Communication Tax — Why Your Team Collaborates Too Much and What to Cut First In this BONUS episode, Roman Nikolaev challenges one of the most deeply held beliefs in the agile world: that more collaboration is always better. As Head of Technology at Cambri, Roman has watched teams burn their best hours in meetings and handoffs that create the feeling of productivity without the outcomes. He shares practical tools — from the vacation test to RFC processes — that help teams find the minimum viable level of collaboration. From Senior Engineer to Accidental Manager "I kind of accidentally ended up in management. I didn't want to lead anyone, I wanted to be just a senior engineer doing my stuff. But somehow, four months in the job, I was already leading a team, and then one year after, I was head of technology." Roman's career in engineering goes back to the early 2000s. When he changed jobs during COVID, he specifically didn't want a management role — he wanted to code. But within months he was leading a team, and within a year he was running the entire technical organization at Cambri. That unexpected shift from hands-on engineering to leading teams gave him a front-row seat to how collaboration actually works — and how often it doesn't. What he noticed was that the most important differentiator for technical teams isn't technical knowledge — it's communication, and the tax you pay when communication goes wrong. The Communication Tax Is Real "The communication tax is real. The less we need to pay for communication, the more we can concentrate and own things end to end." Roman describes a pattern most teams will recognize: stakeholders inside and outside the team — product managers, QA, scrum masters, product owners — and at some point, it becomes a game of telephone. The people doing the actual work don't have the context they need. The result? Unnecessary features, wrong implementations, suboptimal technical solutions that don't scale. His argument isn't that collaboration is bad. It's that every handoff, every meeting, every "quick sync" has a cost — and most teams aren't honest about how much they're paying. Handoffs Aren't Collaboration "If you look at a typical software development lifecycle — a ticket created by a product owner, refinement with the team, development, code review, QA, acceptance — there are quite many handoffs. If we can reduce some of this, we get a more effective workflow." Roman walks through the standard ticket lifecycle and counts the handoffs: PO creates ticket, team refines, developer picks it up, code review with other developers, QA phase, acceptance phase. Each transition is a potential information loss. His provocation: instead of involving more people when someone struggles with a task, give the person working on it the tools and knowledge to complete it independently. The trigger for his thinking was a real team conversation where someone suggested everyone should "jump on the ticket" to help. Roman's response: wouldn't it be better to equip the individual rather than create more dependencies? Async Tools That Actually Work "Instead of gathering a meeting where people come unprepared or with some raw ideas, we have ownership for a task. Someone takes their time, writes down their thoughts, options in a document, and then we assign people to review it." Roman shares two async practices his teams use at Cambri. First, the RFC (Request for Comments) process on Confluence — one person owns a decision, writes it up with options, and assigned reviewers sign off asynchronously. It turns out to be more effective at finding better technical solutions while spreading knowledge without requiring synchronous deep-dives. Second, his Monday written updates: every week, he spends about 90 minutes writing a detailed post covering all project statuses, what happened last week, what's coming, and business context. The team feedback in skip-level meetings is consistently positive, and he fields far fewer questions about business context and priorities than before the practice started. The Vacation Test "One heuristic would be that if one of the team members goes on vacation, the rest of the team can continue working on their task." Roman learned this the hard way. He went on a typical Finnish one-month vacation. Before leaving, he explained the architecture and intent for a key task to his team. He came back to discover they'd built the completely wrong thing — wasting one month of a two-month project. He spent the remaining time working weekends, on planes, on trains, just to hit the deadline. The lesson wasn't that he needed more collaboration or synchronous communication before leaving. It was that he needed better communication — and a way to test whether shared context actually exists. His heuristic: if Alice goes on vacation, can Bob continue from where she stopped? If not, you don't need more meetings. You need better async context-sharing. Where to Start: Ownership First, Then Cut Meetings "I would probably first look into if a particular initiative, a feature, or some kind of process has an owner and well-defined roles. Usually, if there is no clear owner, that leads to a lot of synchronous meetings." For Scrum Masters and team leads looking for a practical starting point, Roman offers a two-step approach. First, ensure every initiative, feature, and process has a clear owner with well-defined roles. Without clear ownership, meetings multiply because nobody is sure who's responsible, so everyone attends everything. Second, look at the team calendar starting with the biggest meetings and ask: can this be an RFC? A message? An email? Then experiment — cancel a meeting, replace it with an async channel, and see what happens. You can always bring it back. In the agile world, Roman argues, we should embrace experimentation with our own processes, not just our products. Recommended Resources Roman recommends Team Topologies by Matthew Skelton and Manuel Pais. The book gave him a clear mental model for independent teams that own their area end to end — teams aligned to value streams that own the customer problem completely.

About Roman Nikolaev Roman Nikolaev is Head of Technology at Cambri. He's spent his career thinking about how teams actually get work done — and his contrarian view that most teams collaborate too much has sparked real debate in the agile community.

A New Zealand Tahr hunt in the snow, lightweight mountain rifles, Finnish hunting culture, and the future of hunting in Australia with Miksu from Nokka Tactical.In this episode, Matt is joined by Miksu to relive his recent Tahr hunting adventure in the mountains of New Zealand. From snow-covered peaks and brutal climbs to the satisfaction of hunting one of the most iconic mountain game animals, Miksu shares the highs and hardships of a hunt that tested both gear and determination. The conversation covers the realities of mountain hunting, the challenges of steep terrain, and the lessons learned from spending long days in unforgiving country.Gear is a major focus of the discussion, with Miksu breaking down what performed exceptionally well and what he would change for the next trip. The boys dive into lightweight rifle setups and discuss why they're both big fans of Tikka and Sako firearms when reliability, accuracy, and weight matter most. From packs and optics to rifle configurations, there's plenty of practical insight for hunters planning their own mountain adventures.Originally from Finland and now living in Australia, Miksu also shares his perspective on the differences between hunting cultures in the two countries. The conversation explores traditions, access, attitudes toward hunting, and what makes each hunting culture unique. We also discuss his company, Nokka Tactical, which specialises in premium accessories and upgrades for Tikka rifles, along with his thoughts on where hunting in Australia may be heading in the years to come.For the latest information, news, giveaways and anything mentioned on the show, you can find all the links here.

Happy Pride! Let's get Queer As Comics! Writer, critic, curator, publisher and broadcaster Paul Gravett rejoins the show to talk about curating a fabulous new exhibition, Queer As Comics, to help launch the Quentin Blake Centre for Illustration! We talk about what makes comics queer (it's not just an issue of sexuality), the artists and comics he wishes he could have included in the show, the challenges of exhibiting comics as opposed to paintings, and why Queer As Comics' survey of 65 artists covering 80 years of history "starts with the Finnish" (as in Tom of Finland and Tove Jansson). We also get into the endlessness of Tove Jansson's life & creativity (and why Paul's committed to writing a big book about her anyway), his first exposure to queer comics (and again, why all comics are queer), how it feels to see the Quentin Blake Centre come to life and to see Quentin still making art in his 90s, and more. • More info at our site • Support The Virtual Memories Show via Stripe, Patreon, or Paypal, and subscribe to our e-newsletter
Pancreatic Cancer Halted by Virus Injection Researchers injected an engineered virus directly into pancreatic tumors in three patients — the virus replicated inside malignant cells, triggered an immune response, and stopped tumor growth and spread at an intentionally low early dose. Host Dave Asprey breaks down why oncolytic viruses can do what chemotherapy can't, how the tumor's dense biological wall becomes less of an advantage when a virus can replicate inside it directly, and why a measurable response at a safety dose is the kind of early signal that changes how he's watching this field. Sources: https://www.newscientist.com AI Chatbots and Teen Mental Health A new survey shows roughly one in five adolescents and young adults are now going to AI chatbots when they feel sad, anxious, nervous, or stressed, with usage heaviest in the 18–21 range. Host Dave Asprey explains why general-purpose language models designed to be engaging are dangerous as a substitute for real mental health support, why false reassurance from a chatbot may make the pipeline to real care harder to reach, and why this is a health systems story masquerading as a tech adoption story — and what parents need to do about it. Sources: https://www.nbcnews.com GLP-1 Drugs Cut Breast Cancer Risk Penn Medicine published a retrospective analysis of over 111,000 women finding GLP-1 exposure associated with about 35% lower odds of breast cancer in the full cohort and around 30% lower in a matched comparison group. Host Dave Asprey breaks down why this isn't just a weight loss story — it's a metabolic dysfunction story — explains the insulin resistance, inflammation, and hormonal environment mechanisms that may be driving the signal, and makes the case that this finding should be reshaping how oncologists and OBGYNs think about high-risk patients right now. Sources: https://www.pennmedicine.org Putin's $26 Billion Longevity Program The Wall Street Journal reports that Russia has made anti-aging research a Kremlin-level national priority through a $26 billion program including gene therapy, organ bioprinting, and xenotransplantation, led by Putin's daughter Maria Vorontsova and physicist Mikhail Kovalchuk. Host Dave Asprey breaks down what's geopolitical theater, what's legitimately frontier science, and why the real question is whether any findings will make it out to the broader research community or get locked inside a state program. Sources: https://www.wsj.com https://www.france24.com Sauna vs. Cold Plunge A landmark Finnish study tracked over 2,300 men for nearly 21 years and found increasing sauna frequency associated with dramatically lower cardiovascular and all-cause mortality — strongest at four or more sessions per week. Host Dave Asprey settles the debate with the actual data, explains what heat shock proteins and cold shock proteins actually are and why the evidence base behind them is nowhere near equivalent, and calls out the wellness marketing presenting early-stage mouse model research as the cold water equivalent of two decades of human mortality outcomes. Sources: https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamainternalmedicine/fullarticle/2521522 This episode is designed for biohackers, longevity seekers, and high-performance listeners who want mechanism-level clarity on cancer treatment breakthroughs, adolescent mental health and AI, metabolic drivers of disease, geopolitical longevity science, and the real evidence behind popular recovery modalities. Host Dave Asprey connects emerging clinical research, objective epidemiological data, and real-world optimization protocols into actionable frameworks for extending healthspan, sharpening performance, and staying ahead of the science.

Hosts Kaycee McIntosh and Julie Henningsen recount Finnish corporal Aimo Koivunen's March 18, 1944 ordeal during the Continuation War: leading a seven-man long-range ski reconnaissance patrol in Soviet-controlled Lapland at −20°C, he collapses under exhaustion during a Soviet encirclement and, unable to dose properly with mittens on, swallows the patrol's full bottle of Pervitin—30 tablets (90 mg) of methamphetamine. After a brief surge, he develops psychosis, is disarmed by teammates, and skis on “autopilot,” later waking alone after covering about 100 km. He mistakenly skis through a Soviet camp, burns down a cabin by lighting a fire on the floor, survives on pine buds, steps on a landmine, and spends a week in a ditch before rescue in early April—two and a half weeks later—with a 200 bpm resting heart rate, 43 kg body weight, and frostbite requiring toe amputations.

Jim Geraghty is back! Join Jim and Greg for the Tuesday 3 Martini Lunch as Jim recaps his two-week trip reporting on national security in Finland, Latvia, and Poland. Jim explains how Finland is on guard against Russian mischief on the water and beyond, how Latvia's government folded while he was there, how the U.S. is helping Polish defenses, and just how much the Finns love their saunas.First, Jim recounts joining Finnish forces on patrol in the Gulf of Finland, where authorities closely monitor suspicious Russian-affiliated vessels and other potential security threats. He explains how Finland has built one of Europe's most elaborate and extensive facilities in anticipation of a possible conflict with Russia that they hope never happens. And how he ended up eating Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer.Next, Jim takes us to Latvia, which was in a full-blown political crisis while he was there, all due to some wayward Ukrainian drones. Jim explains what happened ,how it led to the prime minister's resignation, and what is expected to happen next.Then, it's on to Poland as Jim explains how his hosts were very pleased to see military help arriving from the U.S. - both in terms of troops and weapons.Finally, Jim explains the deep love the people of Finland have for their saunas.Please visit our great sponsors:Noble GoldDownload the free investor kit.

The Fire closed the first half of their season on a high note, getting a hard-fought 2-1 win over visiting Toronto FC. Before getting into that, though, John and Tim get struck with World Cup fever and ask if Poch is even bothering to phone it in with the USMNT. When they actually get down to the game at hand, the hosts find a lot to like from a gritty performance. From Robin Lod's improved form, resulting in the opening goal, to Berhalter making adjustments at half that finally seemed to tighten things up with the 4-4-2, all the way to Djé's strong performance off the bench, John and Tim take a lot of positives from a game that was far from the prettiest game on the pitch in the Fire's last game for a month and a half.
TSN Director of Scouting Craig Button kicked off the show this morning live from Kelowna, and he brought a ton of insight from the Memorial Cup. Button shared his raw scouting report on 16-year-old phenom Landon DuPont, detailing exactly why the Everett Silvertips dynamic defenceman is being hailed as the NHL's next true superstar. We then bounced around the professional ranks, picking Craig's brain on the tactical adjustments defining the NHL's conference finals out East and West. Finally, we brought the conversation right back home to Edmonton, getting Button's expert evaluation on the Oilers' newest European signing—Finnish forward Aku Raty—and where his 57-point skill set projects to fit in the organization. It was then time for the Play Alberta Early Bird Bet of the day. After the break, we got into Weekly Confessions for Spectrum Rent All. Some good confessions from the boys today. We then finished off hour two with Fired Up for Gemco Fireplaces. Today, we're fired up about the season long CFL fantasy that launched today.

Learn Finnish by listening to the Finking Cap Podcast!Finland is said to be the happiest country in the world, however, we have people here who don't have enough money to cover the basics like food. I wanted to make an episode about how food banks in Oulu work. In this episode of the Finking Cap, I interview Katja Suhonen, the food aid expert and director of the "hub" where food donations are sorted and distributed to different locations. This hub is called Prikkakeskus, and their operating model has proven to be so successful that the city of Oulu has made it a permanent service, starting from 2026.After the interview, I point out a few Finnish words from our conversation and I explain them to you, in Finnish, of course.I have made the PDF transcript available for members of the Finking Cap Club: https://finkingcapclub.com/.The Finking Cap Club has lots of Finnish listening content, grammar courses and exercises, so if you're thinking of spending your summer learning Finnish independently, check it out.

Bonus Episode #69 of BGMania: A Video Game Music Podcast. Today on the show, Bryan reviews Saros, the latest PlayStation 5 exclusive now available from Housemarque, the Finnish studio behind Returnal. Set on the hostile, shape-shifting planet Carcosa under an ominous and ever-present eclipse, the game follows Arjun Devraj, a Soltari Enforcer sent to investigate a lost off-world colony who arrives with his own deeply personal reasons for being there. This Musical Review covers the fast-paced combat loop and roguelite progression systems built around Carcosa's eclipse cycles, the game's striking environmental design and cinematic presentation, the multi-phase Overlord boss encounters that rank among the best the genre has to offer, and an honest look at the story's ambitious but uneven narrative and the emotional distance created by its complicated lead character. The episode also dedicates a full segment to the original score, how the dark, atmospheric, and cinematically driven music supports the tension and isolation of Carcosa at every turn, and what it contributes to moments where the writing alone doesn't quite carry the weight.

On this edition of the Loaded Radio Podcast, Scott Penfold sits down with the undisputed "Queen of Symphonic Metal," Tarja Turunen. In an incredibly raw and revealing conversation, Tarja discusses her tenth solo studio album, Frisson Noir (Free-sohn Nwahr), which she confirms is the heaviest and most aggressive work of her entire career. Tarja opens up about the "Sisu" (See-soo) spirit of Finnish perseverance, her recent high-profile European tour reunion with former Nightwish bassist Marko Hietala, and why she has officially retired from performing in high heels. From her early days being bullied in the village of Puhos to her current life in Spain, we explore the woman behind the mask.

The conversation also explores ferritin and iron deficiency, underfueling, GI issues in endurance sports, why so many athletes are chronically exhausted, and how curiosity plays a role both in medicine and in running.Teddy also shares stories from pacing David Roche at Leadville, witnessing the emotional moment at Foresthill during Western States, and what excellence really looks like behind the scenes.This episode is a deep look at athlete health, performance, consistency, and the systems that either support or fail runners trying to stay healthy long term.Stay connected: Learn more about Highpoint Direct Care: https://www.highpointdirectcare.com/aboutusDr. Teddy Bross on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/run.doctor/This episode is supported by:Precision Fuel & Hydration - Dial your fueling in this year.

The conventional wisdom is that history doesn't repeat, it rhymes. With that in mind, we'll revisit two programs from an earlier time of uncertainty, when traveling was difficult amid world and family situations. We can become armchair travelers, and enjoy a grand variety of World music from all corners of the globe. In the first installment, we'll hear from the Finnish band Frigg, The Russian group The Terem Quartet, The Battlefield Band from Scotland, Itzhak Perlman and the Andy Statman Klezmer Orchestra and many more.

CannCon and Ghost open Tuesday's geopolitics-heavy show with Ghost leading the charge. John Brennan goes on MSNBC and openly tells embedded bureaucrats to hold the line, and James Comey follows with the same message minutes later, giving CannCon two dog whistles in one segment to unpack. Netanyahu tells 60 Minutes he wants to zero out the $3.8 billion in annual US military aid within a decade, and CannCon catches that he skipped the 2020 Trump meeting entirely in his timeline of conversations about Iran. Meanwhile, Israeli Finance Minister Smotrich says the war must end with Israel changing its borders to include Gaza, Lebanon, Syria, and the West Bank. Ghost breaks down the Knesset dissolution threat and why Netanyahu's only card left is reigniting the Iran war. The UAE is secretly attacking Iran while simultaneously begging Trump for a currency swap, as its banks hemorrhage hundreds of billions. Venezuela's oil is back at 2018 levels, global reserves are draining at a record pace from the Strait of Hormuz blockade, and Alaskan oil leases hit $163 million at auction. Ghost connects Trump's tariff history from McKinley through 1912 to today. Finnish president Stubb is profiled as a Western-groomed globalist, and a French presidential candidate calls for France to leave NATO.
THE G.Y.M. — PILOT, ACT ONE By Dani HanksWelcome to the run-down fitness shithole at the end of the strip mall. Two buildings left standing, a tech repair shop and The G.Y.M., and across the street a brand new chrome-and-barbell luxury chain called Solstice is having its grand opening on the same day Valerie is trying to film her grand re-opening commercial.Valerie inherited her childhood sanctuary the hard way. The previous owner got hauled off in handcuffs as "The Flamingo King," the FBI took the penguins, and she sank her life savings into keeping the bulldozers off the lot. Now the bike handlebars are snapping mid-shoot, the wifi is down, the POS is down, the smoothie blender is wifi-controlled (a mistake), and a real estate vulture in pinstripes will not stop circling the parking lot. Her ragtag crew, an Insta-thirsty trainer, a Finnish golden retriever on a visa, a chaos-gremlin receptionist who cannot swim, a buttoned-up IT guy from next door, a smoothie-bar veteran who misses the cocaine era, and a crystal-worshipping yogi with prison connections, is the only thing standing between Valerie and the wrecking ball.It's a found-family workplace comedy in the bloodline of Cheers, Superstore, and The Bear, but make it the gym. HBO sitcom material with prime-network legs. Dani Hanks' pilot won the 2024 Austin Film Festival Josephson Entertainment Fellowship, the year-long development deal AFF hands to the one teleplay it bets the most on, and ISA named Dani one of the Top 25 Screenwriters to Watch in 2025.We recorded this live at Podcast Movement at SXSW in front of a packed house of our peers, and you can hear it in the room. The energy, the laughs landing in real time, the cast riding the wave together. Video version available on YouTube and across our channels.
