8 april 1721. Voor de kust van Réunion in de Indische Oceaan ligt een zwaar beschadigd schip voor anker - de Nossa Senhora do Cabo. Aan boord: de onderkoning van Goa, de aartsbisschop van Oost-Indië, 200 slaven uit Mozambique, en een schat die vandaag de dag ruim 100 miljoen euro waard zou zijn. Het schip kan zich niet verdedigen - alle 72 kanonnen zijn overboord gegooid na een storm. Dan verschijnen er piratenschepen aan de horizon. Onder leiding van Olivier Levasseur, bijgenaamd "La Buse" - De Buizerd - kapen ze zonder één schot te lossen de rijkste buit in de piratengeschiedenis. Maar het verhaal wordt pas echt mysterieus als negen jaar later Levasseur ter dood wordt veroordeeld voor piraterij . Vlak voor zijn executie gooit Levasseur een cryptogram in de menigte en roept: "Mijn schat voor wie het kan begrijpen!" Nu, 300 jaar later, denken onderzoekers dat ze eindelijk zijn legendarische schip hebben gevonden. Maar de schat zelf? Die ligt misschien nog steeds ergens begraven... Presentator Paul Sanders duikt in het verhaal van de Franse kaper Olivier Levasseur met Will Brouwers, archeoloog en historicus. Hij laat zijn licht schijnen op dit legendarische piratenverhaal.

A trip into Trance - the dance music genre that launched a thousand cheesy synth lines and Euphoria compilations. Music journalist Niamh O'Connor (DJ Mag, AlphaTheta, Mixmag, Resident Advisor, Discogs) joins us to discuss how trance music is the sound of an Irish summer, and hyperlocally in Dun Laoghaire specifically. What is trance music? Trance music was primarily formed by producers in Germany, Netherlands and the Benelux countries in the early 90s where producers like German DJ Sven Väth fused techno-style beats with euphoric melodies, inspired by his time in Goa in india and listening to psychedelia. Paul van Dyk, Armin van Buuren, Tiësto and Ferry Corsten are some of the producers who were at the beginning of the genre. Trance is hypnotic, euphoric, bombastic and bright – making use of repetitive overpoweringly melodic arpeggio synth lines paired with percussive builds, drops and trance gates to induce – the trance state – a musical attempt to replicate the altered euphoric state of mind, and the feeling of being high in the club a aided by ecstasy and mind-altering drugs. Darude's ‘Sandstorm' is trance. Tiesto's ‘Adagio For Strings' is trance, Alice Deejay's ‘Better Off Alone' is trance. Robert Miles' ‘Children' is trance. Gigi D'Agostino's ‘L'Amour Toujours' is trance. The Big Brother theme song is trance.   Niamh joins us to enthuse about her favourite trance tunes, and talk to us about the DJs who are dropping trance in their sets these days. We go on a history of trance music, trance in an Irish context, leading through the '90's to the chart poptrance, psytrance and recent music influenced by Trance from FKA Twigs, Burial, Oklou and Danny L Harle. Are you ready? Let's open the trance gate!

La pimienta es hoy un condimento muy común y de precio asequible, esencial en cocinas de todo el mundo, pero no siempre fue así. Proviene de la región de Malabar, en el sur de la India y se convirtió en un importante motor de la economía y el comercio durante miles de años. Desde la antigüedad, la pimienta fue un producto valioso y muy demandado. En el Egipto de los faraones se usaba en la cocina, pero también en ritos de momificación tal y como los arqueólogos pudieron comprobar cuando encontraron dos granos de pimienta en las fosas nasales de la momia de Ramsés II. De Egipto pasó a otras zonas del Mediterráneo. En Grecia era bien conocida, pero su alto coste limitaba su consumo a los que eran muy ricos. Debía ser tan cara que no aparece ni siquiera mencionada en el antiguo testamento Su escasez se debía a que había que traerla desde la India mediante una ruta muy larga que iba por el mar Rojo y el mar Arábigo. Se desconocía, además, de que planta en concreto provenía. En tiempos del Imperio Romano ese comercio se expandió como nunca antes. Los romanos, que habían creado una gran zona comercial en el Mediterráneo, importaron durante siglos grandes cantidades de pimienta que transformó su gastronomía y la economía del imperio. La conquista romana de Egipto en el 30 a.C. les abrió el mar Rojo de par en par. Eso les facilitaba el acceso directo a la India. De como las flotas romanas llegaban hasta la India da fe un diario de viaje del siglo I, el "Periplo del mar eritreo", en el que el autor detalla las rutas comerciales, los puertos de recalada y los productos con los que había que comerciar. La pimienta siguió siendo costosa, pero su preció descendió, lo que hizo de esta especia un condimento muy popular en la Roma imperial. Tras la caída del imperio romano, bizantinos, persas y árabes se fueron sucediendo en el control del comercio con la India. En el siglo IX, los árabes ya eran los dueños de la ruta entre los puertos indios de Malabar y los del golfo Pérsico y el mar Rojo. La pimienta se integró en la cocina islámica y fue incluso elogiada por eruditos como Avicena. Una vez en las costas del Mediterráneo, venecianos y genoveses monopolizaban su distribución. Su escasez la convirtió en uno de los símbolos de riqueza más visibles de la Europa medieval. Los reyes y aristócratas la empleaban en la cocina y trataban de que sus existencias de pimienta fuesen muy visibles en los banquetes. Cualquiera con dinero estaba dispuesto a pagar por ella, algo que hizo prosperar a las repúblicas marítimas italianas que se encargaban de traerla desde los puertos del Levante. La caída de Constantinopla en 1453 encareció aún más el producto porque los otomanos elevaron los peajes. Eso empujó a los portugueses, que ya estaban explorando la costa africana, a buscar rutas alternativas. En 1498 Vasco da Gama llegó a Calicut acabando así con el monopolio que durante siglos habían tenido árabes y venecianos. Durante más de un siglo los portugueses establecieron en la India factorías fortificadas como la de Goa, desde donde controlaban el comercio de pimienta ahuyentado a los competidores. Eso redujo sustancialmente los precios en Europa ya que se eliminaban los intermediarios. Se llevaron también su cultivo a Brasil, lo que redundó en un incremento de la oferta. Pero seguía siendo interesante desde el punto de vista comercial, por lo que otras potencias como los Países Bajos, Inglaterra y Francia entraron en el mercado con sus compañías de las Indias Orientales. En sólo unas décadas consiguieron que llegase tanta pimienta a los mercados europeos que su precio descendió hasta convertir la otrora deseada especia en una commodity más. En el siglo XVIII la pimienta ya era algo cotidiano, pero había conseguido cambiar el mundo. Gracias a ella prosperaron ciudades como Lisboa y Ámsterdam, los beneficios obtenidos por su venta financiaron todo tipo de innovaciones y fue la palanca que los europeos utilizaron para establecerse en Asia hasta bien entrado el siglo XX.

10 years of Maed in India and this week we’re rewinding to 2017: a year of big firsts, bittersweet moments, and a whole lot of goosebumps. It was the year Maed in India went LIVE (!!) with Blackstratblues, celebrated our 100th episode with legends Indian Ocean in their Delhi studio, and even had Apache Indian drop by to sing acapella while on tour in India. We had tracks that gave us Goa vibes, deep dives, bandmates roasting each other, stripped down punk rock, and a whole lot of unreleased gems. But the year wasn’t all highs. We tragically lost the profoundly talented keys player Karan Joseph aka Madfingers, who had featured on an episode with drummer Lindsay D’Mello aka DCF. His loss was felt deeply in the indie scene. This Best Of is a time capsule of where indie music was at in 2017: raw, experimental, emotional, and unforgettable. PS: You absolutely can NOT miss the intro by Lakshman, our sound engineer, who talks about a hilarious case of Chinese whispers that made him board the wrong bus after school way back when he was 10.

In July, Meghalaya Health and Family Welfare Minister Mazel Ampareen Lyngdoh announced that the State may follow Goa in making HIV/AIDS test mandatory for all before marriage.

Here we discuss the question. Guests: Jahnabi Goswami, president of the Assam Network of Positive People; N.

After Congress slashed the National Firearms Act (NFA) tax on silencers and short-barreled firearms, nearly every gun-rights group in the country promised to sue in an effort to overturn those sections of the law outright. Now, a few weeks later, those groups have nearly all sorted into two coalitions, and they've both filed suit. One coalition, led by Gun Owners of America (GOA), filed in the Fifth Circuit. Another, led by the National Rifle Association (NRA), filed in the Eighth Circuit. To analyze the arguments of each case, we've got independent gun-rights lawyer Matt Larosiere on the show. He's brought both tax power and Second Amendment challenges against the NFA before. So, he has direct experience with the claims at issue in both cases. Larosiere said he is on board with the logic behind the GOA and NRA lawsuits, but he argued they face a difficult climb to achieve their goals. He said tax challenges are more complex than most people imagine, and it can be difficult for Second Amendment attorneys to navigate the waters of a successful pleading. He said the Second Amendment claim in the NRA case may have an easier path, but noted it wasn't a new tactic and has failed in the past. Special Guest: Matt Larosiere.

Anyway, I'm set to "inherit" my great-grandfather's hunting rifle. It's a turn-of-the-century model, not sure what year exactly yet, but it's a Remington slide action in 35 Remington. I know nothing about performance, etc. You think I'd be safe to shoot it? It's for sure in heirloom territory. I don't have any use plans for it. Maybe a wall hanger if I can find a place my wife can handle for it. Anyway, thanks for the info boys (I think, don't want to misgender these days) Ps, I don't actually care about Aaron's gender or offending anyone. Pps, I miss Lil. Ppps, no homo. Pppps, SSB. Ppppps, is this joke old and dumb yet? Pppppps, just like shawn and aaron, lol Tony D - "Looking to get a sidearm for hiking and camping. I spend a lot of time in the White Mountains in New Hampshire. For the most part our wildlife is pretty easy to deal with. We have black bears but they tend to be small and for the most part they're more afraid of people than we are of them. The next biggest predators we have are coyotes, and bobcats, which I'm not particularly worried about, and fisher cats which, while creepy as fuck if you hear them at night, aren't really a threat (seriously look that shit up, they sound like screaming women). We also have timber rattlesnakes but they're rare enough to be a non-issue. Here's where it gets interesting, there is one animal in the woods of northern New England that scares me and it's the moose. When I say this people tend to say, “what's the big deal? It's just big deer, right?” Fuck no. I don't care how big you think a moose is, it's bigger than that. Picture a clydesdale with six foot antlers and cloven hooves and you'll have a rough approximation. They fear nothing and they move through the woods surprisingly quietly so it's pretty easy to startle one if you don't know it's there. In springtime the young bulls get all sex-nuts and retard-strong and occasionally decide to take out their sexual frustration by murdering the fuck out of whatever they can find. And god help you if you come across a cow with a baby. Mama moose will stomp your ass into jelly and go right back to munching on lake weed if you so much as look at her offspring cross-eyed. So my question is this, is 10mm hardcast enough to take down leftover ice-age megafauna too dumb to go extinct? Or should I be looking at something bigger?" Aaron Not Moses - Rebuilding a backyard range and I have a few different places to put it, no gas lines nearby. I am mostly surrounded by woods but there are some properties that have buildings on them or may be building on them in the future. Two questions, how high should a berm be in relation to the targets? When placing the berm and shooting direction how far should the closest building be away? 1 mile, 2 miles, or more We are shooting anything from 22-6.5 Creedmoor, but who knows when we will buy a cannon. Tyson S - Recently started chemo and due to having a port on my right side they told not shoot for fear of damaging it. My time line is finishing chemo ( should be cured very treatable prognosis) in a couple months but the ports stays in for a year or so. I'm going to try to learn to shoot left handed now a skill that I never thought I'...

He has an opinion on everything, though nobody's really listening, and he probably carries a cursed artifact nobody wants to touch. Shawn is Carl, the reluctant, self important hero who's just trying to keep the podcast from collapsing under its own insanity plus, he loves walking around with no pants on. Nick perfectly fits Princess Donut, setting fashion trends for both guns and camouflage patterns that Shawn will obviously follow. He believes a rifle should both slay and match your entire loadout. Jeremy is Samantha, bringing pure chaos, carnage, and a voice so loud it could punch through walls. Also, his mouth is almost always open like a sex doll. And Savage1r is our Prepotente, the all-knowing, no-nonsense goat who drops stats and laws while silently judging everyone and laughing at his own jokes. Each episode is a wild mix of honest firearm talk, tactical insight, ridiculous banter, and just the right amount of madness. You'll get gear reviews, heated debates, political hot takes, and the kind of chemistry only a group this dysfunctional could create. If you want a podcast that's smart, unfiltered, and unapologetically fun, We Like Shooting might just be the only gun show crazy enough to survive the Dungeon and make you laugh the whole way through. It's smart. It's unhinged. It's the most fun you'll have while learning about firearms and the only podcast where a talking goat might bore you to death.   ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - from Lo Hung-Huang - Five stars Five stars, Wow he put five stars again.

"Setting personal goals, both in training and in life, fuels growth and resilience."Episode SummaryIn this episode, I was joined in the studio by Rachel Maloney from Night Fision and Glow Rhino, filling in for Big Keith, who was on vacation. We kicked things off with some fun banter about keeping up with our kids and how humbling it is to realize the next generation can run circles around us at the gym or pool.We covered a lot of ground, starting with current happenings in the firearms industry, like the overwhelming topic of the SIG P320 and ongoing debates about product safety and consumer trust. Rachel shared her unique perspective on firearms training, emphasizing the importance of mental “software” over chasing hardware benchmarks.On the news front, we dived into California's ammo background check ruling, reflected on the impact of suppressor tax changes, and how new state laws keep making life challenging for responsible gun owners—especially in states like NY and CA. Rachel also gave us a deep dive on Night Fision's new optic plate and sight system, breaking down how they're simplifying the “co-witness” confusion for everyday defensive shooters.For Top Gear, I reviewed the Q Sling from Flatline Fiber Co., and Rachel did a brilliant hands-on walkthrough of the new Night Fision optic plates. We laughed over a unique gin and tonic from my local farm stand, and wrapped up the show highlighting “good guy with a gun” stories, plus off-topic news like the return of the flip phone summer.Call to Action1.

Announcement! Please join other podcast listeners for the next online BGTG Mini-Con, scheduled for September 6. I plan to be online from 9am-9pm Pacific time, including Discord for voice & video. The games will mostly be played on BoardgameArena, but adventurous gamers can also use Yucata, Brettspielwelt, Boardgames.io, Steam, apps, or whatever. It's free, and no RSVP or signup is necessary. Opener: Qwinto Closer: The SdJ awards ceremony, which we watched/listened to live on the drive back from a convention Over the years you've heard me talk about a number of game conventions. Usually that's recounting the games I played, and my enthusiasm for them in a 5-star rating. This time, I'm taking more of a meta approach to the topic. Yes, I'm still talking about a convention I went to recently, and some games played there, but half of the episode is about the idea of game conventions in the first place. The different types, which ones I prefer, and so on. Then the second half was recorded at a recent convention, meant to highlight the sort of fun, deep, not-so-serious discussions about the hobby and our shared experience in it. That's a lot of what I enjoy about game conventions--getting to hang out for continuous time with others who are just as geeky as I am about boardgames. I'm among my people! In this particular case, DaveO, Jonathan, Jeff, and SteveV join me to talk about games of designer Rüdiger Dorn. We concentrated on those for an entire day. This prolific designer has titles from 1992 to the present day. He's won the Kennerspiel des Jahres and been nominated for the Spiel des Jahres multiple times. Some of his most famous titles include Istanbul, Goa, Jambo, Traders of Genoa, and Louis XIV...none of which we played! Instead we tabled Dragonheart, Las Vegas Royale, Emerald, Montana, Rune Stones, My Farm Shop, Karuba, Arkadia, Danger 13, Mercado, Karuba the Card Game, and Diamonds Club. That was primarily with two groups playing all day long on two tables. It was the Dornücopia! At the last minute I thought a funny hat would be a great addition to our little event. While I couldn't find a cornucopia hat on short notice, I did find a corn hat. That was great! The winner of a game was crowned with it, and soon enough we were calling that person The Great Dornholio. Now I think all of our future mini-events will benefit from a special hat!     -Mark

The Federal Reserve is a scam, and Jerome Powell is working every day to undermine you, the American people!

Steve Gruber is joined by Stephen Willeford, spokesman for Gun Owners of America and the heroic armed citizen who stopped the 2017 Sutherland Springs church shooting. Willeford shares details on GOA's 2025 Summit, featuring big names like Ken Paxton and Rep. Thomas Massie, and weighs in on a recent stabbing attack at a Walmart, where an armed customer stepped in to stop the threat.

I'm thinking of dumping the 2nd focal plane lpvo, what suggestions would you have for a different optic for that concept? Otherwise, what would you guys do for a "modern battle rifle" setup? Optics, furniture, etc? Cheers, Sean M No notes And 171 for life Nick D - I have a Mitchell shorty DOC with the mloc guard. I want to get a Midwest suppressor hand guard and a dead air can for it so I can have more rail space. Would this be a good set up? Any other suggestions? I have a heat wrap on the rail now and it takes up almost the entire rail. Help Alex S - I recently picked up an older Rem700 in 7mm Rem Mag. Been shooting my .308 out to distance (~550yds) but wanted to go further so i picked this up on a deal. I posted on DangFree about my new scope(Strike Eagle 5-25 FFP) and got a lot of great help there. My question for you today is about the barrel. It is the standard thinner profile barrel and heats up quick after my first few rounds. Is it worth swapping the barrel out to a bull? Should i leave this rifle as-is and invest in a new platform? Any other suggestions? Thanks for your abuse in advance! Wls4life Ragequit from Twitch - Hola everybody, looking into some defensive pistol/ar training and I'm having a hard time trying to figure out what is worth the time and money. I have seen everything from basic pistol courses where it appears they are indoors at a range to courses that are defensive/competition style classes. And when looking into defensive ar courses it runs the gamut from just getting into ar's to having “professional” training for wet work. What do I look for when trying to decipher the description of classes? I am located near the PA/MD/VA area so for the most part that is not a bad drive for most training if there is a recommendation for classes. What should I look for and what “descriptions “ should I steer away from. I appreciate any help, one of the watchers from twitch Ryan W - I have a registered SBR and recently moved to a new city. (It's an actual SBR with a stock, not a braced pistol, I am not one of those guys.) I read on the ATF website that a change of address form could be submitted after a move, as long as I am not crossing state lines. However, I have also read that the ATF is no longer requiring a change of address form at all, as long as the new address is in the same state. Do you know if this is true? Also, how long do you have after a move to notify the ATF? Thank you for the help...hopefully Mike H - Throwing an update since I already decided on my optic I was asking about earlier, found a great deal on a Sig Sierra3BDX 4.5-14x44 scope and picked up a rangefinder to go with, the scope was only $300 Nick F - odd question but have any of the cast looked into the "no new cemetery " conspiracy? I've found that some cemeteries practice the 50/100 year rule. apparently you don't own your plot forever..... Daniel A - What would you choose to defend yourself FN HP 9mm older model or a DB9 gen4? And is the older FN HP better than the new ones?   The winner of this week's swag pack is Mike H! To win your own, go to welikeshooting.

Reviews ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - from Romeo Whiskey - It's ok   ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - from Von L - Communism is a failed lie of a system that's caused misery and death since its inception. It promises equality but brings starvation and oppression. It kills freedom and innovation, turning people into pawns for power-hungry fucks. millions died in the Soviet Union, Mao's China, and North Korea from this poisonous ideology. these woke cunts support it, claiming that its the morally superior system of government while simultaneously ignoring that communist regimes like Cuba or the USSR would've jailed or killed them for being gay. unintelligent fucks rant about how the only reason its failed in the past is because its "not real communism" while it having been attempted multiple different times by different countries and it always leads to bread lines and death. fucking weird how that works. Anyway, great podcast, 5 squares.   ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - from Denny - This podcast is great to stay up to date on recent gun news and g...

I own a suppressor and was under the impression that I needed to update my address with the ATF. After asking Capital Armory as well as the suppressor manufacturer, they both told me not to worry about it and I didn't have to. I know you guys aren't lawyers but what would you do in this situation Mike H - Just bought a ruger SFAR in 6.5cm and trying to decide what glass to put on it. Tempted to go with a 5-25 but the longest range I shoot at is 400yd. I intend to get into hunting at some point with this rifle but I do not hunt yet. Since I just spent a grand on the gun I'm not looking to spend anyyhing crazy on the glass. Thanks in advance. P.S. Jeremy isn't a cunt P.P.S. Aaron is a cunt no notes   Jeremy's Cousin Again - My question bout what meat you like. came from you guys talking bout kanye west cousins intimacies. I already knew what meat Aaron liked. Urva Jinaswet - We Like Shooting Episode 611 starting at timestamp 01,07,33 you guys were talking about a video on the SIG P320 and someone making it fire with using parts from different P320 configurations. You guys brushed it off as something that doesn't prove anything because it was made/forced to work like the ATF making that Auto Keycard to work. But it is not like that at all, and you missed the point. The point is that the P320 is capable of firing without the trigger being pulled. It proves the P320 is capable of firing without the trigger being depressed. So with parts being out of spec or not functioning correctly, which is entirely possible with mass production and MIM and shitty QC, the P320 can fire without input from the user. I have been saying this for a while now and now this video proves it. The trigger is not mechanically linked to the striker safety lock. The trigger pushes the striker safety lock out of the way when the trigger is pulled, but it does not pull it back when the trigger returns to start. A tiny spring is what returns the striker safety lock to safe. That's it. Just FYI. Where is this video that shows this? Warrior of the Weekend - Shawn, a few months ago you talked about doing a magnifier comparison review. I was really curious about the results. Did you ever finish it?I just need to know that my Eotech G33 magnifier is the best since it's the only one I have experience with therefore it's the best. #skibidihauktuagigachads Tater Daddy - Hope this arrives before it doesn't matter anymore. DearWLS is like sending a letter in 1848. Have we considered fully whether or not we want the hearing protection act as part of a tax bill? I can see directly how this could legitimize anti-gun NFA-like gun control in future tax bills as part of reconciliation. That would mean in 2-6 years we would be fighting Nonsense that could not be filibustered. On the other hand, this could represent an opportunity. There would obviously be a reprieve during which time suppressors would be easier to get. New tax based legislation for gun control might also represent better fodder for judicial challenges than a 90 year-old law which has gone relatively unchallenged.What are yous guys thoughts? -Tater Keith M - Hey guys, question of the day,,,,,,,on the H.P.A. /“ shush” act . If they take suppressors off the nfa list, (No form 4) just a 4473 ,
