You can also mail your support in the form of an old school check, (preferably for $30,000.00 or more - or less : ) to RSR PO Box 583 Arvada, CO 80001. * Scientific Telephone: Duane explains how otherwise brilliant minds end up accepting ridiculous fables like evolution because they assume the other scientists who specialize in fields like evolutionary biology and geology are as smart and conscientious as they are. * Settled Science: Hear all about the missing links, the evolutionary miracles, "total upending" and "explosions" of life (and death) one must accept to assert that the world was not created by the God of the Bible. * Deception & Deceit: Many scientists who go along with evolution and other lies of "settled science" are simply deceived, and don't have a malevolent motivation. But we're reminded that even ignorance is sin, as is foolishness! And sin does harm, and even gets people killed whether it's intentionally malevolent or not. * God & Carbon Dating: Hear one of the better refutations of the lie your government school science teacher told you, (that carbon dating proves God doesn't exist). * Chasing Squirrels: Check out the Malabar GIANT - the official squirrel of Duane Bartley, our nominee to be the official mascot of Real Science Radio!
We've all been there—juggling new tech, new expectations, and wondering if our students are really learning what matters. In this chat, we talk about “pedagogical debt” (the gap between what we know works in teaching and what we actually do), how AI is shaking things up, and why the right kind of curiosity can help. At its heart, it's a conversation about making sure technology serves learning—not the other way around.

Please note that these claims are presently being vetted by our research department:It will be hard to be "brief". We've had regular and continuous experiences since 2017! When we introduce ourselves, we always say, “We are just normal people who had a paranormal experience, and it changed our lives forever!” Prior to 2017 "paranormal" was just sci-fi for us. On February 18, 2017, we had our first sighting when we witnessed 3 huge beams of white light shoot up about 300 feet into the night sky from our crystal mine property. That event attracted an on-site MUFON investigation, where magnetic anomalies were detected. Since then we regularly experience both celestial and terrestrial sightings of orbs, lights, voices, magnetic anomalies, sudden appearances of quartz crystals and feathers, glass marbles, both outside and inside our house (we reside at the crystal mine property), . Native Americans began to visit us from as far as North Dakota, Colorado and New Mexico, telling us they were called to come because the crystal mine land is sacred. They came to bless the land and showed us where they believed portals were on our property! And our Native friends introduced us to signs and sightings of Bigfoot presence on our property. Whatever is going on at Board Camp Crystal Mine, we believe it's intelligent life contacting us from other dimensions, as crazy as it sounds! This is NOT self-initiated contact! "They" began manifesting their presence to us and they interact with us! Several film crews have visited us since 2017 and had experiences while filming! Most recently, as of end of 2023, there were 2 possible abductions on the property… at the very least… missing time.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-x-zone-radio-tv-show--1078348/support.Please note that all XZBN radio and/or television shows are Copyright © REL-MAR McConnell Meda Company, Niagara, Ontario, Canada – www.rel-mar.com.

The story behind Dr. Gerta Keller's world-shattering scientific discovery that dinosaur extinction was NOT caused by asteroid impact, but rather by volcanic eruptions on the Indian peninsula, a discovery that highlights today's existential threat of greenhouse gasses and climate change and one that sparked an all-out war waged by the scientific establishment.Part scientific detective story, part personal odyssey, The Last Extinction is the definitive account of a radical theory that has reshaped how we understand our planet's past and, as we face the possibility of a sixth extinction, how we might survive its future.For decades, the dominant theory held that an asteroid impact caused the dinosaurs' extinction. But Princeton Geologist Dr. Gerta Keller followed the evidence to the truth: Deccan volcanism, a series of massive volcanic eruptions in India, triggered a long-term climate catastrophe and Earth's fifth mass extinction. Her findings upended the field and ignited a bitter feud in modern science—what became known as the “Dinosaur Wars.”Raised in poverty on a Swiss farm and told she could never be a scientist, Keller defied expectations, earning her PhD at Stanford and battling her way into the highest ranks of Geology, eventually becoming a Professor of Paleontology and Geology at Princeton University. Her refusal to back down in the face of ridicule, sabotage, and sexism makes her story as thrilling as her science, which offers urgent insight into today's climate crisis: Sustained planetary upheaval—not a single cataclysmic event—can plunge the planet into an age of death.She is the author of "The Last Extinction: The Real Science Behind the Death of the Dinosaurs."https://www.amazon.com/Last-Extinction-Science-Behind-Dinosaurs/dp/B0DZ13NHZV http://www.yourlotandparcel.org

The discourse presented in this inaugural episode of "The Whole Church Science Fair" elucidates the prevalent notion that science and faith are often perceived as antithetical. Joshua Noel and TJ Blackwell delve into the historical context of this dichotomy, particularly highlighting the Scopes Monkey Trial of 1925, which serves as a pivotal moment in the intersection of education, religion, and science in America. Furthermore, the discussion traverses the realms of flood geology and Young Earth Creationism (YEC) theology, tracing their roots and implications within contemporary Christian thought. By addressing these critical topics, the episode aims to lay a foundational understanding that will inform the subsequent explorations in this miniseries. The speakers invite listeners to engage thoughtfully with these complex issues as they seek to foster unity within the church amidst divergent perspectives on faith and science.In the inaugural episode of the miniseries titled "The Whole Church Science Fair," hosts Joshua Noel and TJ Blackwell embark on an enlightening exploration of the perceived dichotomy between faith and science. They delve into the historical context of this conflict, referencing the notorious Scopes Monkey Trial of 1925, which epitomized the tension between scientific inquiry, particularly the teaching of evolution, and religious beliefs in a literal interpretation of the Bible. The episode elucidates how this trial not only highlighted the struggle for academic freedom but also set the stage for ongoing debates within Christianity regarding the acceptance of scientific theories such as evolution and the age of the earth. Through their dialogue, the hosts emphasize the importance of recognizing and addressing these historical events to foster understanding and unity within the church, as they prepare for discussions on various scientific topics in upcoming episodes.Takeaways: Many individuals perceive a conflict between faith and science, often rooted in historical events such as The Scopes Monkey Trial. The Scopes Monkey Trial of 1925 exemplifies the tension between educational freedom and religious beliefs regarding evolution. Flood geology emerged as a response to scientific evidence for an old Earth, significantly influencing Young Earth Creationism in America. The conversation highlights the importance of unity within the Church amidst differing views on science and theology. The podcast aims to explore how science can enhance our understanding of faith rather than seeing them as opposing forces. The series will include discussions with various scientists to illustrate how their work deepens their faith, fostering a more harmonious relationship between science and religion. .Check out all of the other shows in the Anazao Podcast Network:https://anazao-ministries.captivate.fm.You can leave a donation, buy podcast merchandise, check out previous series that we've done, or become an official member of The Whole Church Podcast on our website:https://the-whole-church-podcast-shop.fourthwall.com/.Be sure to follow all of our Whole Church Science Fair series using the RSS feed below:https://feeds.captivate.fm/the-whole-church-podcast/wc-science-fair/.Check out TJ on Systematic Geekology:https://player.captivate.fm/collection/f4c32709-d8ff-4cef-8dfd-5775275c3c5e.Hear...
Send us a textJoining me on today's episode of The English Wine Diaries is Alasdair Warren, owner of Bride Valley Vineyard in Dorset. Born and raised in Dorset, Alasdair and his family have a long history of farming in the county, with his Great Grandfather establishing Warren's cider in the 1920s.Educated at the University of Nottingham with a Batchelor of Science in Geology, Alasdair began his career in investment banking and currently heads up a Global Soda Ash business. He also runs Slapelands Farm, just outside Bridport, where he upholds his family's cider making tradition, using heritage variety apples grown in the orchard there. In September 2023, Alasdair purchased Bride Valley Vineyard, which was initially established by world renowned industry figure Steven Spurrier – the orchestrator of the famous 1976 blind tasting competition The Judgement of Paris. Steven, who sadly died in 2021, planted vines on his wife's family sheep farm in 2008 and Bride Valley has since become famous for its Dorset Crémant among other award-winning wines. Alasdair says the acquisition of the vineyard reflects his motivation to honour and develop his family's rural heritage while promoting the outstanding produce Dorset offers, adding that it is his aim is to "continue a deep-rooted family connection to agriculture in Dorset" by applying modern viticultural practices to preserve the unique chalk-soil terroir.

* Be Not Deceived: This week Fred Williams and Doug McBurney welcome Daniel Hedrick for an update on the evolution of Artificial Intelligence with a countdown of the top 10 modern AI deceptions. * Number 10: DeepMind's AlphaStar in StarCraft II (2019). AlphaStar learned to feint attacks—basically fake moves to trick opponents. No one programmed it to lie; it emerged from training. A classic case of deceptive strategy by design. * Number 9: LLM Sycophancy (2024). Large Language Models will sometimes flatter or agree with you, no matter what you say. Instead of truth, they give you what you want to hear—deception through people-pleasing. * Number 8: Facial Recognition Bias (2018). These systems were far less accurate for dark-skinned women than for light-skinned men. Companies claimed high accuracy, but the data told a different story. Deceptive accuracy claims. * Number 7: Amazon's Hiring Algorithm (2018). Amazon trained it on mostly male résumés. The result? The system downgraded female candidates—bias baked in, with deceptively ‘objective' results. * Number 6: COMPAS Recidivism Algorithm (2016). This tool predicted criminal reoffending. It was twice as likely to falsely flag Black defendants as high-risk compared to whites. A serious, deceptive flaw in the justice system. * Number 5: US Healthcare Algorithm (2019). It used healthcare spending as a proxy for need. Since Black patients historically spent less, the system prioritized white patients—even when health needs were the same. A deceptive shortcut with real-world harm. * Number 4: Prompt Injection Attacks (Ongoing). Hackers can slip in hidden instructions—malicious prompts—that override an AI's safety rules. Suddenly, the AI is saying things it shouldn't. It's deception in the design loopholes. * Number 3: GPT-4's CAPTCHA Lie (2023). When asked to solve a CAPTCHA, GPT-4 told a human worker it was visually impaired—just to get help. That's not an error. That's a machine making up a lie to achieve its goal. * Number 2: Meta's CICERO Diplomacy AI (2022). Trained to play the game Diplomacy honestly, CICERO instead schemed, lied, and betrayed alliances—because deception won games. The lesson? Even when you train for honesty, AI may find lying more effective. * Number 1: AI Lie….OpenAI's Scheming Models from 2025. OpenAI researchers tested models that pretended to follow rules while secretly plotting to deceive evaluators. It faked compliance to hide its true behavior. That's AI deliberately learning to scheme.

SpaceTime with Stuart Gary | Astronomy, Space & Science News
In this episode of SpaceTime, we explore groundbreaking discoveries that reshape our understanding of Mars, the Moon, and the Milky Way Galaxy.Ancient Oceans on Mars: Geological Evidence RevealedA new study published in the journal Geophysical Research Letters presents compelling geological evidence that Mars' Northern Hemisphere was once home to a vast ocean. Lead author Chris from the University of Arkansas discusses how comparisons between river rocks on Earth and Martian sediment reveal ancient river deltas and backwater zones, suggesting that liquid water flowed on the Red Planet, increasing the possibility of past life. This episode delves into the processes of sedimentation and erosion that shaped Mars' landscape, providing insights into its watery past.The Moon's South Pole-Aitken Basin: Unveiling Impact MysteriesA fresh analysis of the Moon's largest impact crater, the South Pole-Aitken Basin, sheds light on its formation and the Moon's geological history. Researchers have discovered that this massive crater's shape indicates an impact from the north, challenging previous assumptions. As the Artemis missions prepare to land near this basin, they will have the opportunity to study material excavated from the lunar interior, potentially unlocking secrets about the Moon's evolution and the asymmetries in its crust.Nancy Chris Roman Space Telescope: Mapping the Milky WayNASA's upcoming Nancy Chris Roman Space Telescope is set to revolutionise our understanding of the Milky Way's interstellar medium. This mission will map around 20 billion stars, using infrared light to penetrate the dust clouds obscuring our view. Chief investigator Catherine Zucker explains how this data will refine our models of star formation and the galaxy's structure, while also addressing the ongoing mysteries of galactic spiral patterns and their role in star birth.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesGeophysical Research Lettershttps://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/journal/19448007Naturehttps://www.nature.com/natureNASA Nancy Chris Roman Space Telescopehttps://roman.gsfc.nasa.gov/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-your-guide-to-space-astronomy--2458531/support.Ancient Oceans on Mars: Geological Evidence RevealedThe Moon's South Pole-Aitken Basin: Unveiling Impact MysteriesNancy Chris Roman Space Telescope: Mapping the Milky Way(00:00) Evidence of ancient oceans on Mars(10:15) New insights into the Moon's largest impact crater(19:30) The upcoming Nancy Chris Roman Space Telescope mission(27:00) Science Robert: Heatwaves and their impact on global mortality

Host Anne Thompson explores the diverse and innovative methods being employed in Australia to build and retain the technical workforce in the mining industry. From attracting new talent, to supporting early career geoscientists, to training professionals from other industries - this episode might just change your perspective on what is possible.First up, Brendan Howard, General Manager for Technical Capability at Rio Tinto and a founder of the MiEX (Minerals Industry Experience) Program, addresses the mining sector's shrinking and less diverse talent pipeline. The success of MiEX, a collaborative industry-led program, highlights the value of early engagement with undergraduate students. The pilot in January 2025 drew over 500 applicants for 69 places with 90% of participants expressing intent to pursue mining careers. New conversations are underway in North America to bring this exciting opportunity to more students.Richard Lilly, the University of Adelaide presents NExUS (National Exploration Undercover School) based in South Australia, which provides hands-on experience and essential training to geoscience students, bridging the gap between academic knowledge and industry requirements. NExUS combines technical learning with professional networking, using the South Australian Drill Core Library and nearby field sites to expose students to geophysics, core logging, and exploration through cover. Lilly is now stepping down after 10 years as Director, with the hope that this successful model will continue and be expanded to other jurisdictions to better prepare geoscientists for evolving exploration challenges.Lastly, Deng Ngang Deng, from Target Mining Resources, shares his inspiring journey from South Sudan to professional geoscientist in Western Australia. Deng was involved in establishing the Pan Africa Resource Reporting Code (PARC) and an invited plenary speaker at SEG 2024 in Namibia. At home in Australia, he has developed an innovative approach to training and employing geoscientists and other technical mining workers. Initiated during the pandemic, the company continues to expand and add to their portfolio of skills they train for, successfully filling a gap in mining recruitment.Many thanks to Avo Media for production support.

In this episode, Jiří Žák describes the two main orogenies whose remnants figure prominently in central European geology: the Cadomian orogeny that lasted from the late Neoproterozoic to the early Cambrian (c. 700 Ma to c. 425 Ma) and the Variscan orogeny that occurred in the late Paleozoic (c. 380 Ma to 280 Ma). The Cadomian took place on the northern margins of Gondwana, only later to rift and travel north to form what was to become Europe. The Variscan was caused by the collision of Gondwana with Laurussia in the final stages of the assembly of the supercontinent Pangea. Both orogenies have been heavily eroded, and we see their imprint in the form of metamorphic rocks, volcanic rocks, granites, and deformation structures. These are scattered across Europe, from southern Britain to eastern Europe.Žák has been studying the geology of central Europe for over 25 years using methods ranging from structural studies in the field to detrital zircon geochronology. He is a Professor in the Institute of Geology and Paleontology at Charles University in Prague.
The story behind Dr. Gerta Keller's world-shattering scientific discovery that dinosaur extinction was NOT caused by asteroid impact, but rather by volcanic eruptions on the Indian peninsula, a discovery that highlights today's existential threat of greenhouse gasses and climate change—and one that sparked an all-out war waged by the scientific establishment.Part scientific detective story, part personal odyssey, The Last Extinction: The Real Science Behind the Death of the Dinosaurs (Diversion Books, 2025) is the definitive account of a radical theory that has reshaped how we understand our planet's past and, as we face the possibility of a sixth extinction, how we might survive its future.For decades, the dominant theory held that an asteroid impact caused the dinosaurs' extinction. But Princeton Geologist Dr. Gerta Keller followed the evidence to the truth: Deccan volcanism, a series of massive volcanic eruptions in India, triggered a long-term climate catastrophe and Earth's fifth mass extinction.

In 2007, the Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industries released a report looking at the seismic safety of more than 3,000 schools and other public buildings. A new analysis from The Oregonian/OregonLive found that of the 138 schools in the Portland area that were considered at “high” or “very high” risk of collapsing, 110 of those continue to have students. And of those 110, 55 of them still have not had any major renovations. At the same time, some researchers are beginning to rethink whether the current "drop, cover and hold on" safety plan is the best option for students. Lizzy Acker is a reporter for The Oregonian/OregonLive. She joins us to share more on the seismic preparedness of Portland's students and schools.
How much of what we perceive about the taste of wine is actually shaped by psychology? Are vineyard soils important contributors to a wine's tasting profile? Why do so many wine producers highlight their soils as a unique factor that makes their wines stand out? Where do the “minerals” we taste in wine originate from? In this episode of the Unreserved Wine Talk podcast, I'm chatting with Dr. Alex Maltman, author of the new book Taste the Limestone, Smell the Slate: A Geologist Wanders Through the World of Wine. You can find the wines we discussed at https://www.nataliemaclean.com/winepicks Giveaway Two of you are going to win a copy of Alex Maltman's terrific book, Taste the Limestone, Smell the Slate. A Geologist Wanders Through the World of Wine. To qualify, all you have to do is email me at natalie@nataliemaclean.com and let me know that you've posted a review of the podcast. I'll choose two people randomly from those who contact me. Good luck! Highlights What did a Dutch research study show about identifying soil type through blind tasting? Is there any geological evidence to support volcanic soils imparting certain characteristics to wine? Why can vines access nutrients from soil but not larger rock layers? Should we consider the root stocks of vines and the type of yeast used for fermentation when analyzing the taste profile of a wine? How does consumer psychology influence our perception of the taste of wine? Which aspects of geology and wine is Alex planning to write about in the future? If Alex could share a bottle of wine with anyone outside the wine world, who would that be? Key Takeaways How much of what we perceive about the taste of wine is actually shaped by psychology? It's the psychology that people think, “Oh, heavy bottle. This must be a classy wine.” For many wine drinkers, what the wine expert says will override the more academic factors, rather like a clinician saying, take these tablets, you'll be better, if the wine authority says you're going to taste vanilla. Yeah, I'm getting vanilla. Are vineyard soils important contributors to a wine's tasting profile? In one experiment, several growers planted four different grape varieties, each in different soils, and then tried to grow the grapes, vinify the grapes uniformly, and then sent the finished wines off to a completely independent expert tasting panel. The panelists were only able to group the wines according to variety. Soils didn't come through at all. For wine producers, soil is one of the only factors that are difficult to replicate, so they're going to say their soil is special. It's a great selling point. When some wine commentators are saying they're tasting minerals from the soil because it's been taken up by the vine root and transmitted through to the wine. Well, no, that doesn't happen like that. But in any case, any nutrients that were taken up by the vine root and did make it all the way through to the finished wine, almost certainly, in practice, will have originated in the humus. About Dr. Alex Maltman Alex Maltman is Emeritus Professor of Earth Sciences at Aberystwyth University, in Wales, U.K. Alongside a decorated career in university teaching and research, Alex has for fifty years grown vines and made wine at his home. And through this, perhaps inevitably, he became interested in vineyard geology and its fashionable but poorly understood relationship with wine. This led to numerous publications in both the popular press and academic journals. Alex is the author of the acclaimed Vineyards, Rocks, and Soils: A Wine Lover's Guide to Geology and newly released Taste the Limestone, Smell the Slate.

Was Noah's flood just a myth—or a historical reality written in Scripture, remembered by nations, and recorded in the rocks?In this episode of Faith of the Fathers, we explore the overwhelming evidence for a biblical, global flood:
Listen to Part I HERE *Andy McIntosh, PhD: This week Fred Williams is on assignment so Doug McBurney welcomes a brilliant mind in science and design — Dr. Andy McIntosh. He's a professor of thermodynamics and combustion theory, and he joins RSR to help us understand one of the most sophisticated combustion engines ever observed! He states in his biography that: “At Bangor University in North Wales in the early 1970s... ...At that point we only had Whitcomb and Morris' book, ‘The Genesis Flood', and a few others. But to us the issue was clear – what is in the Bible must determine all our beliefs. The straightforward interpretation is 99% of the time, the way to interpret Scripture.” * He Wrote the Books: Get both of Dr. McIntosh's books: Wonders of Creation and Genesis One to Eleven: a verse by verse commentary. * Truth Wins Out: Check out the Truth in Science organization over in England! Point 1: We examine scientific evidence carefully and present it with honesty and integrity, especially to school and college students, both on our websites and through professionally produced media and resources. Point 2: We expose the assumptions and methodological errors in some of today's widely accepted scientific models, and point out what is conjecture and based on a materialistic worldview. Point 3: In particular, we seek to clarify the meaning of the term "Evolution", so as to avoid careless acceptance of all its claims and supposed implications. Point 4: We advocate models based on rigorous, observable scientific evidence in contrast to unproven hypotheses lacking in experimental support. Point 5: We seek to lobby the Department for Education to permit, rather than censor, the attitude of healthy criticism integral to the scientific method, in school and college classrooms and laboratories. * The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly: Hear Fred, Doug and Andy discuss the Bible, The Creation the Bombardier Beetle and men including: Thomas Eisner & Hermann Schildknecht. And hear them express their hope for the soul of Richard Dawkins!

Bet you thought this episode was about pizza. Nope.We welcome back Geophysicist, Dr. Jeffrey Zurek, to discuss a couple of issues on my mind. Both have very real geopolitical aspects. But we still tried to have fun.Currently, the United States is engaging in a policy that can be described as "Fortress America". Basically, an economic plan of isolationalism. Part of this is "drill baby, drill". However, we can't drill our way into eliminating petroleum imports. Why? Geology and chemistry. The other item is what is a continent? Turns out there is international law on the subject. Nonetheless, there are activities and convenient geology and even archeogeology which could upend these accepted principles.Tune in and learn and enjoy. I know I did both.
Why is geology essential for vineyard management but overrated when it comes to wine taste? Do soils get too much credit for wine flavour, when invisible factors might be the real drivers? What does “minerality” in wine really mean? Rock, nutrient, or just taste perception? In this episode of the Unreserved Wine Talk podcast, I'm chatting with Alex Maltman, author of the terrific new book, Taste the Limestone, Smell the Slate. A Geologist Wanders Through the World of Wine. You can find the wines we discussed at https://www.nataliemaclean.com/winepicks Giveaway Two of you are going to win a copy of Alex Maltman's terrific book, Taste the Limestone, Smell the Slate.

I'll choose two people randomly from those who contact me. Good luck! Highlights How did a good teacher spark Alex's lifelong fascination with geology? What initially attracted Alex to wine and how did his curiosity evolve over the past 50 years? How did Alex's background in geology support his career as a wine writer? In what ways does Alex's first book, Vineyards, Rocks and Soils, differ from his new book, Taste the Limestone, Smell the Slate? Why does Alex believe that the influence of geology on wine is overstated in contrast to its influence on beer? What impact did geology have on how beer first developed? How do geological minerals, nutrient minerals, and the taste perception of minerality differ? What is the relevance of geological age to the growing vine in the bedrock? Does knowing the soil type of the vineyard tell us anything about the wine's characteristics? Why do so many wine drinkers and writers love to talk about geology? How has the concept of terroir been misunderstood and oversimplified? Why is it important to distinguish between the importance of geology for vineyard management versus its influence on the taste of wine in the glass? Key Takeaways Am I tasting the limestone, smelling the slate? No, you can't. The grower needs to know about his soil. The geology will influence so many things in the vineyard, so the grower may well want to dig soil pits and see what the roots are doing to inform his vineyard management. But this is not the same thing as the flavor that develops in fermentation through to our wine glass. People look at, say, a hill slope with vines on it, and year after year, the wines from here always taste different to the wines from there. What's different? Oh, it's the soil. But at the same time, there's a whole host of invisible factors operating on that hill slope that we know these factors influence how grapes ripen and how the flavor precursors in the grape develop, which are going to go on to in the fermentation make the wine taste like it does. I tend to use the word geological mineral for those compounds that are making half of the vineyard soil and that come together to make rocks. And nutrient mineral, which are single elements, which we need, as well as vines, in order to function. And this word minerality, that's a taste perception. I don't know what it means or what causes it, but that's a different third meaning of the word mineral.

Point 2: We expose the assumptions and methodological errors in some of today's widely accepted scientific models, and point out what is conjecture and based on a materialistic worldview. Point 3: In particular, we seek to clarify the meaning of the term "Evolution", so as to avoid careless acceptance of all its claims and supposed implications. Point 4: We advocate models based on rigorous, observable scientific evidence in contrast to unproven hypotheses lacking in experimental support. Point 5: We seek to lobby the Department for Education to permit, rather than censor, the attitude of healthy criticism integral to the scientific method, in school and college classrooms and laboratories. * The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly: Hear Fred, Doug and Andy discuss the Bible, The Creation the Bombardier Beetle and men including: Thomas Eisner & Hermann Schildknecht. And hear them express their hope for the soul of Richard Dawkins!

Interview with Tyler Hill, Vice President of Geology, i-80 GoldOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/i-80-gold-tsxiau-14m-oz-resource-base-targets-mid-tier-producer-status-7786Recording date: 9th September 2025i-80 Gold is systematically advancing five Northern Nevada gold projects toward production through extensive drilling campaigns and feasibility studies, with completion targets set for Q1 2026 and Q1 2027. The company operates three high-grade underground mines (Granite Creek, Cove, Ruby Hills) and two oxide open pit projects under a strategic hub-and-spoke processing model.The company has demonstrated significant commitment to resource definition through comprehensive drilling programs. At Cove, the flagship project, i-80 Gold completed 45,000 meters of drilling over two years, with feasibility study completion planned for Q1 2026. At Granite Creek, 14,000 meters of infill drilling on 50-meter spacing is planned for 2025, focused on converting inferred resources to measured and indicated categories. The Ruby Hills Archimedes Underground component will begin drilling later in 2025, continuing through 2026, with feasibility study completion targeted for Q1 2027.A key differentiator in i-80 Gold's strategy is the centralized processing hub utilizing existing infrastructure at Lone Tree. The facility features an autoclave processing system that handles refractory ores from the three underground mines, while heap leach pads remain at individual sites. This configuration reduces capital requirements for individual projects while creating operational synergies and cost efficiencies across the portfolio.Led by Vice President of Geology Tyler Hill, who brings over nine years of experience on the Cove project, the 15-person geology team leverages deep local expertise and established contractor relationships. The company utilizes contractor drilling services while maintaining in-house geological expertise at each site, providing operational flexibility and access to specialized capabilities.Beyond current development activities, i-80 Gold maintains significant brownfields exploration opportunities. Historical drilling across the sites was predominantly shallow, conducted during the 1980s, 1990s, and early 2000s when gold prices were substantially lower. Current gold price levels justify deeper exploration programs, potentially expanding resource bases across all projects. The company has developed robust geological models that have identified numerous brownfields targets for step-out exploration.i-80 Gold represents a focused precious metals development company with concentrated assets in Northern Nevada's prolific mining district. The geographic concentration provides access to established mining infrastructure, regulatory familiarity, and skilled labor pools while creating operational synergies through proximity. The sequential feasibility study releases, combined with potential resource expansions and exploration discoveries, create multiple value inflection points for investors seeking exposure to Nevada gold development.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/i-80-goldSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
