When I hit the trails, I never imagined I'd be facing something far scarier than rough terrain or bad weather. Out of nowhere, a sudden heart blockage stopped me in my tracks and led to open heart surgery. One day I was planning my next overlanding trip… the next, I was fighting just to have the chance to go on another one.In this video, I open up about the reality of what happened, how quickly life can change, and how close I came to losing the adventures I love—and nearly my life. This isn't just a story about overlanding; it's a warning about paying attention to your health, even when you don't think anything can happen to you.If you've ever taken your health for granted or ignored pain or symptoms, I hope my story makes you pause, reflect, and take care of yourself—because you never know when life might throw you a detour you never expected.A huge thanks to my partners:Top Oak (amazing roof top tents and awnings for budget prices): https://topoakoverland.com/?sscid=51k9_mt1ba&Nitto (my Terra Grappler G3 tires are great for midwestern winters, wet weather, and all terrain use): https://bit.ly/41EJhbQZ1 Off Road (pretty much the spot for all things Nissan): https://www.z1offroad.comAll Dogs Offroad (amazing Nissan specific suspension options which I run on my truck): https://www.alldogsoffroad.comICECO Fridges (the best fridges for the money, hands down-Use code ALLTHINGSOVERLANDING for 12% off your order): https://icecofreezer.com/ALLTHINGSOVERLANDINGMoon Fab Awning (super flexible, non-permanently mounted awnings for all kinds of applications.

On Wednesday, Tulsa's City Council is set to vote on an ordinance that would limit what Tulsans can do on sidewalks and medians. The proposed ordinance comes after two incidents, one in 2023, and one in 2024, where two separate people were killed while standing in center medians.Councilor Phil Lakin, who spoke to The Frontier on Monday about the ordinance, said it was about public safety. Many medians in Tulsa are narrow, and in zones where the speed limit is above 25 miles per hour, he believes standing in the median is a safety hazard. The ordinance would also potentially apply to sidewalks that are within 18 inches of the street as well.But when it comes to enforcement, some, including City Councilor Laura Bellis, fear the ordinance will only be applied to those panhandling, and she fears fines associated with the ordinance could prove too costly.On this episode of Listen Frontier, we hear from Bellis, Lakin, and Deputy Council Administrator Sarah Davis ahead of Wednesday's meeting. This is Listen Frontier, a podcast exploring the investigative journalism of the Frontier and featuring conversations with those on the frontlines of Oklahoma's most important stories.

GUNPLAY FROM THE START: 7/8: Heart of American Darkness: Bewilderment and Horror on the Early Frontier Hardcover – by Robert G. Parkinson (Author) 17555 OHIO RIVER VALLEY https://www.amazon.com/Heart-American-Darkness-Bewilderment-Frontier/dp/1324091770 We are divided over the history of the United States, and one of the central dividing lines is the frontier. Was it a site of heroism? Or was it where the full force of an all-powerful empire was brought to bear on Native peoples? In this startingly original work, historian Robert Parkinson presents a new account of ever-shifting encounters between white colonists and Native Americans. Drawing skillfully on Joseph Conrad's famous novella, Heart of Darkness, he demonstrates that imperialism in North America was neither heroic nor a perfectly planned conquest. It was, rather, as bewildering, violent, and haphazard as the European colonization of Africa, which Conrad knew firsthand and fictionalized in his masterwork. At the center of Parkinson's story are two families whose entwined histories ended in tragedy. The family of Shickellamy, one of the most renowned Indigenous leaders of the eighteenth century, were Iroquois diplomats laboring to create a world where settlers and Native people could coexist. The Cresaps were frontiersmen who became famous throughout the colonies for their bravado, scheming, and land greed. Together, the families helped determine the fate of the British and French empires, which were battling for control of the Ohio River Valley. From the Seven Years' War to the protests over the Stamp Act to the start of the Revolutionary War, Parkinson recounts the major turning points of the era from a vantage that allows us to see them anew, and to perceive how bewildering they were to people at the time. For the Shickellamy family, it all came to an end on April 30, 1774, when most of the clan were brutally murdered by white settlers associated with the Cresaps at a place called Yellow Creek. That horrific event became news all over the continent, and it led to war in the interior, at the very moment the First Continental Congress convened in Philadelphia. Meanwhile, Michael Cresap, at first blamed for the massacre at Yellow Creek, would be transformed by the Revolution into a hero alongside George Washington. In death, he helped cement the pioneer myth at the heart of the new republic. Parkinson argues that American history is, in fact, tied to the frontier, just not in the ways we are often told. Altering our understanding of the past, he also shows what this new understanding should mean for us today. 42 illustrations

That horrific event became news all over the continent, and it led to war in the interior, at the very moment the First Continental Congress convened in Philadelphia. Meanwhile, Michael Cresap, at first blamed for the massacre at Yellow Creek, would be transformed by the Revolution into a hero alongside George Washington. In death, he helped cement the pioneer myth at the heart of the new republic. Parkinson argues that American history is, in fact, tied to the frontier, just not in the ways we are often told. Altering our understanding of the past, he also shows what this new understanding should mean for us today. 42 illustrations
What's up pixel perverts? Today we're blighting the surface for undesirables, rapidly switching discs, realizing the guards can hit, scraping metal out of the dirt, locating the only doctor in the world, experiencing goblin poetry, refusing to serve drinks to miners, dreaming of D Block, goofing into a slur, beating the prisoners, staring down a moral choice, changing hearts and minds, rushing the goblin narrative, playing with piss, and producing an unforgivable font mistake. In the absence of god you must have medicine. 00:00:00 Clair Obscur 00:04:10 Intro 00:05:42 Arriving at The Frontier 00:12:32 Talon 00:16:00 Talon Indoors 00:34:40 Talon Mines 00:39:38 Mid-Cave Miner Hangout 00:49:40 Graveyard 00:53:16 Hostages 01:02:55 Real Net 01:07:22 Outro Patreon: patreon.com/retroam Bluesky: @retrogradeamnesia.bsky.social YouTube: www.youtube.com/@RetrogradeAmnesia E-Mail: podcast@retrogradeamnesia.com Website: www.retrogradeamnesia.com
Send us a Text: Ask Us a Question!Today on Waypoints, we're heading north to Alberta and British Columbia – an area that is home to vast landscapes, wild rivers, prairie grasslands, and a setting that rivals anything found in the American West. Joining us is Dave Brown of Dave Brown Outfitters, a pioneer in Canadian flyfishing who has spent more than three decades shaping one of the largest and most respected outfitting operations in the region. A former paratrooper and decorated infantry leader, Dave's path into guiding was anything but conventional, and his story is as unique as the waters he calls home.From the iconic Bow River to the freestone streams of the Canadian Rockies, and from dry-fly browns and rainbows to the pursuit of wild steelhead, Dave has built an outfitting program that blends professionalism, wilderness adventure, and next-level customer service. In this episode, we talk with Dave about his military background, his journey into guiding, and what makes Alberta and B.C. such special – and easy – destinations for anglers. We'll also explore how he's grown a cross-border operation that seamlessly combines flyfishing, wingshooting, and Western adventure while staying true to the craft of guiding and the conservation of the waters he depends on.After the success of the 2024 Belize and 2023 Baja Bluegrass events, we're excited to bring the experience back to Belize for 2025. Join us November 4–9 at El Pescador Lodge on Ambergris Caye for a five-night, all-inclusive fishing, beach, and bluegrass getaway—exclusively for 30 couples.Waypoints is brought to you by PatagoniaTo bring their gear to life, Patagonia is motivated by relentless curiosity and a passion for the wild.

This week we confront "the killer" in the Space Game and maybe see justice.
Garrett Lord is co-founder and CEO of Handshake, which started as a career network for college students and new grads but recently discovered something extraordinary: they were sitting on the world's largest network of academic experts—exactly what frontier AI labs desperately needed. With 500,000 PhDs and 3 million advanced degree holders creating training data, in just eight months they've built a new business that hit $50 million in revenue in its first four months and is on track to blow past $100M in the first 12 months.What you'll learn:1. How Handshake found an opportunity to leverage their proprietary network of experts to launch a data-labeling business that's on track to blow past $100 million ARR in 12 months2. Why AI models need human experts (e.g. physics PhDs) to improve, and what this “data labeling” actually involves3. Inside the actual work: what a biology PhD does for 8 hours that makes GPT-5 smarter4. The playbook for building a startup inside a startup: separate teams, separate offices, separate everything5. Why the shift from “generalist” to “expert” data labeling created a once-in-a-lifetime business opportunity6. Why AI won't eliminate entry-level jobs—it's creating “Iron Man suits” that make junior employees 10x more productive—Brought to you by:CodeRabbit—Cut code review time and bugs in half.

In this week's conversation between Dr. James Emery White and co-host Alexis Drye, they discuss the recent controversy surrounding former HGTV stars Chip and Joanna Gaines who rose to fame from their home renovation show called Fixer Upper, which aired back in 2013. In 2019, they announced their departure from HGTV and the launch of a new network called the Magnolia Network, which finally debuted in 2022. But just last month, many of their fans turned on them after they featured a same-sex couple on their show, Back to the Frontier. Same-sex couples on TV shows are hardly uncommon nowadays, so why have the Gaines received so much backlash and from whom? Episode Links Christie D'Zurilla wrote an article in the Los Angeles Times titled, “Chip and Joanna Gaines' new show features a same-sex married couple. Some Christians are ‘disappointed.'” If you're interested in reading the full article you can find it HERE. Some people who question the Christian community's response to their decision are seemingly misunderstanding the difference between acceptance and affirmation, between making a value judgment and being judgmental. Dr. White gave a series at Mecklenburg Community Church that might be helpful to listen to. It's called “Unchristian,” and its installments are a response to people who say that Christians are judgmental, hypocritical and homophobic. You can find that series HERE. There are two additional series that we think would be helpful for a deeper look at what the Bible has to say about judgmentalism, the true meaning of grace, and the significance of Jesus bringing both grace AND truth to bear on people's lives. Those series are “Judged” and “Getting Grace Right,” both available in .mp3 or .pdf formats at Church & Culture. Finally, there were two authors Dr. White mentioned during today's discussion. The first was John Stott and his book Sermon on the Mount, which includes an exploration of what true judgmentalism is like, and how it can lead to setting yourself up as God. And the second was Dr. Henry Cloud and his book Changes That Heal for more of the discussion on grace and truth.

Welcome to Impact Quantum, the podcast for the quantum curious—where caffeine, ambition, and a hint of quantum entanglement power every conversation. In this globe-trotting episode, hosts Bailey, Candace Gillhoolley, and Frank La Vigne dissect the state of quantum initiatives across 30 countries, exploring how nations from Canada to Israel are racing ahead with billion-dollar investments, strategic alliances, and sometimes even crystal chandeliers behind industry leaders. You'll get a behind-the-scenes look at the making of their comprehensive global quantum report, complete with a Quantum Readiness Index that ranks countries not by style, but by their funding, startups, and readiness for a quantum future.The hosts also dig deep into a challenge facing the entire industry: a workforce conundrum where too few brains—or perhaps too many of the wrong kind—risk slowing quantum progress. They share how their innovative process, nicknamed "Vibe coding," helped synthesize this worldwide chaos into a stunning map and report, all while keeping things refreshingly accessible and a bit irreverent.So grab your favorite beverage—whether it's hot, cold, or superfluid—and get ready for a journey that's equal parts educational and entertaining. Whether you're a physicist, marketer, or just quantum curious, this episode will leave your mind stimulated and maybe a bit entangled.Time Stamps00:00 Impact Quantum: Global Quantum Insights05:25 Global Event Analysis08:59 Global Quantum Activity Map10:05 North America's Readiness Index Overview16:05 Global Brainpower Race Concerns19:16 Tech System Setup Challenges22:20 AI's Academic Shift to Industry23:37 Interdisciplinary Skills in Vibe Coding26:55 Global Quantum Computing Landscape32:38 Impact Quantum: Exploring the Frontier

Welcome back to the People's Guild. For Episode 146, we welcome back @davemccoy as we dig into both the present and the future of Splinterlands — from the competitive edge of Frontier format and the proposed & evolving structure of Survival Mode and bracket play, to the broader questions of marketing, player acquisition, and sustainability. Along the way, we explore the role of the DAO, including the potential of the CGRF (Crypto Gaming Recovery Fund) that could help stabilize and strengthen the ecosystem for years to come.This conversation ranges wide but always circles back to the core question: how do we grow the game, the community, and the economy in ways that are lasting and player-first?Due to some unexpected technical difficulties, we won't be able to provide our usual section-by-section episode summary this week. Instead, we invite you to jump right in and join us for the full ride. Episode 146 is packed with insights, debates, and forward-looking ideas — a perfect snapshot of where Splinterlands stands today, and where it might be headed tomorrow.Enjoy the show!************************************************************************* Check out these links:Splintervibes: https://soundcloud.com/splintervibes Peakd: https://peakd.com/@thepeoplesguild Twitter: https://twitter.com/thepeoplesguild General: https://linktr.ee/thepeoplesguild

Five years after the U.S. Supreme Court's landmark McGirt v. Oklahoma decision affirmed much of eastern Oklahoma as Indian Country, some towns are still issuing traffic and municipal tickets to tribal citizens. In this episode, we talk with reporters Clifton Adcock and Allison Herrera about their investigation into why this happens, how it plays out in municipal courts, and what that means for tribal sovereignty.The conversation looks into the tension between local governments and tribal nations, the burden on everyday citizens caught in the middle, and the patchwork of settlements and agreements reshaping law enforcement. We also explore whether tribal courts and police departments have the resources to handle the cases being shifted their way, and what models of cooperation might point the way toward a lasting solution.This is Listen Frontier, a podcast exploring the investigative journalism of the Frontier and featuring conversations with those on the frontlines of Oklahoma's most important stories.

The digital landscape is evolving at breakneck speed, and with it comes a host of unexpected consequences that blur the lines between helpful innovation and concerning overreach. In this eye-opening episode, we examine how AI is creeping into spaces where human judgment and empathy might better serve us.A troubling new wave of voice phishing attacks has emerged, with cybercriminals using AI to perfectly mimic human voices in real-time conversations. Even tech giant Google fell victim to this sophisticated approach when the notorious Shiny Hunters group breached their Salesforce CRM instance. The days of obvious phishing emails are behind us – now your boss's voice on the phone might actually be an AI impersonation designed to extract sensitive information.Our special guest Nick Espinoza joins us to unpack the fascinating world of AI competitions, revealing how OpenAI's model recently outperformed Elon Musk's Grok in a chess tournament. But the conversation takes a more serious turn when we discuss government pushes for backdoor access to AI chips – ostensibly for security, but creating vulnerabilities that could be exploited. Most alarming is the FDA's implementation of AI in drug approval processes, with former employees reporting the system hallucinating non-existent studies and misrepresenting research.The human cost of AI overreach becomes clear when we explore the growing trend of using chatbots for psychological support. As one journalist discovered when using ChatGPT for couples counseling, these systems lack the empathy and insight necessary for therapeutic work, exhibiting "sycophancy" by agreeing with users rather than providing objective guidance. On a lighter note, we tackle Nintendo's official announcement that Mario has been friend-zoned by Princess Peach after four decades of rescue missions, and share the tale of a man who successfully sued Google after Street View captured him naked in his private backyard despite having a tall privacy wall.Pour yourself a glass and join us as we taste Still Austin Straight Rye whiskey while navigating the complex intersection of technology, privacy, and human connection in our rapidly evolving digital world.Support the show

Bedtime History: Inspirational Stories for Kids and Families
After the Civil War, African American soldiers known as Buffalo Soldiers served in the U.S. Army, often in the western frontier. They built roads, guarded settlers, and fought in key battles—all while facing discrimination and harsh conditions. Their bravery and discipline helped shape the American West. This episode looks at their service, legacy, and why they remain a powerful symbol of strength and perseverance.

Before everyone hits the back-to-school grind, we've got a fun episode about Freddy Pharkas. A historical figure of frontier medicine? No, a video game character from 1993. Justin and Dr. Sydnee talk about how a farmer-cist was made, as well as the real and fake medicine Freddy doled out on the frontier.Music: "Medicines" by The Taxpayers https://taxpayers.bandcamp.com/World Central Kitchen: https://wck.org/
