Real Life This week's episode starts where a lot of us have been living lately: sick, tired, and mainlining comfort food. Steven is still sick for Christmas and counting, while Ben also got hit, which pushed Christmas celebrations down the calendar a bit. The upside? More chili. More Fritos. No regrets. Holiday illness also turned into a surprisingly serious soda tasting panel. Steven gives a strong thumbs-up to Sunset Sarsaparilla, while Nuka Cola Quantum lands squarely in the "fine, I guess" category. Ben, meanwhile, makes a passionate case for Canada Dry Fruit Splash Cherry Ginger Ale, which he insists is gooooood. On the gaming front, Ben waves the bargain flag for Bang Bang Racing, currently just a dollar on Steam until January 5. It's tiny (about 200MB), has excellent controls, and punches way above its weight. She may not look like much, but she's got it where it counts, kid. You can check the deal details here: https://isthereanydeal.com/game/bang-bang-racing/info/  Steven also dives deeper into Fallout Season 2, Episode 2, which naturally turns into more Fallout lore and nonsense. Possibly too much. Definitely too much. But that's the price of admission. Future or Now Ben brings some sobering science to the table this week. After the January 2025 LA wildfires, hospitals recorded a sharp rise in emergency visits for heart attacks, lung illness, and general sickness over the following three months. Researchers believe fine particles from wildfire smoke, combined with stress, played a major role. Blood tests even showed unusual changes that suggest health impacts lingered long after the fires were out. You can read more about the research here: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/12/251220104619.htm  Steven talks about Plur1bus on Apple TV+, created by Vince Gilligan of Breaking Bad fame (and former X-Files writer). Ben keeps himself updated through Boars, Gore, and Swords: http://boarsgoreandswords.com/  Steven, meanwhile, supplements his viewing with YouTube deep dives on color theory and visual storytelling. The consensus? An amazing show — but be warned, we eventually wander into spoiler territory. Go watch it first, then come back. Ben also shares a very cool Google Earth exploration centered on Albuquerque. If you want to follow along, here's the link: https://earth.google.com/web/search/Albuquerque/@35.16557795,-106.74593037,1672.53654999a,233.96919711d,35y,0h,0t,0r/data=Cj4iJgokCUSJAsPilUFAEUCfJ-B8lEFAGTzU80gBr1rAIWpgL9d9sFrAKhAIARIKMjAyNC0wOC0zMBgBQgIIAToDCgEwQgIIAEoNCP___________wEQAA?authuser=0  Book Club No book club this week — we're waiting on Devon, who seemed very excited, which somehow makes the waiting worse. Next week's story is "The Janitor in Space" by Amber Sparks, available through American Short Fiction: https://americanshortfiction.org/janitor-space/  Special Note We're taking a week off. For shame. But we'll be back on January 11th, refreshed, rehydrated, and hopefully no longer coughing into our microphones.

What lurks beneath our oceans? Can a soul truly be sold? And why do UFOs seem to defy physics itself? In the fourth installment of their Members-Exclusive AMA, Nate and Luke navigate through 60+ submitted questions, cherry-picking the most intriguing mysteries and burning questions about the Blurryverse.They examine testimonies of craft disappearing into mountains and oceans, including military tracking of objects that seamlessly transition from air to water without slowing down. The discussion ventures into theories about underwater bases, the unexplored depths of the ocean, and those mysterious geometric structures visible on Google Earth's ocean floor. The hosts discuss the theological weight of Mount Hermon - the supernatural significance of the location where fallen angels allegedly made their pact - and question whether ancient giants really walked among us, examining claims that the Smithsonian systematically collected and hid oversized human skeletons whenever they were discovered.The conversation weaves through the Book of Enoch's controversial status, why it didn't make the biblical canon despite being quoted in Jude, and what it might reveal about the true nature of our reality. They reflect on how guests like Tina Griffin, Ben Tapper, and Blake Cook all had UFO encounters that weren't even the main focus of their episodes, suggesting these phenomena are far more common than we realize. Between the heavy topics, discover what the shows the hosts are binging, books they are reading, and why they've already been in full Christmas mode with jazz (Nate) playing in the background.

Käthe und Dobbi haben diese Woche offiziell nichts erlebt – außer natürlich Gladbachs Derbysieg und eine Flut neuer Mudda-Witze aus der Community. Dazwischen gibt's absurde Fußball-Geschichten über die englische Crazy Gang und Günther Deltsepich, den Chuck Norris aus Aachen. Dann wird's ethnologisch mit dem John-Frum-Cargo-Kult auf der Pazifikinsel Tanna, wo Menschen seit den 40ern auf einen schwarzen GI warten und Holzflugzeuge bauen. Am Ende eskaliert alles in eine geschmacklose Mudda-Witze-Orgie, die selbst Google Earth nicht mehr ins Bild bekommt. Lakonischer Nonsense zwischen Fußball, Anthropologie und Blutgruppe Nutella.

Le futur de la cartographie s'écrit du côté de Mountain View. Google vient d'annoncer une mise à jour majeure de Google Earth, fusionnant son modèle d'intelligence artificielle Gemini avec des décennies de données météorologiques, démographiques et satellitaires. Objectif : permettre à l'IA de comprendre la planète non plus comme une simple carte, mais comme un écosystème vivant, où les phénomènes naturels et humains interagissent.Le cœur de cette innovation repose sur ce que Google appelle le « geospatial reasoning », ou raisonnement géospatial. Cette nouvelle approche permet à Gemini d'analyser simultanément plusieurs couches d'informations — du relief à la densité de population — pour anticiper les impacts concrets d'un événement climatique. Concrètement, au lieu de simplement tracer la trajectoire d'une tempête, Google Earth peut désormais identifier les zones susceptibles d'être inondées, le nombre d'habitants touchés, et les infrastructures menacées.L'ONG GiveDirectly utilise déjà cet outil pour repérer les foyers ayant besoin d'une aide financière après une crue. Comme le résume Google dans son communiqué : « Pour résoudre un problème complexe, il faut voir l'image complète. » Désormais, un responsable local peut interroger la carte en langage naturel – « montre-moi les zones où les rivières se sont asséchées » ou « localise les proliférations d'algues » – et obtenir une analyse instantanée, là où il fallait autrefois des jours de calcul.Google étend cette technologie à son service Cloud, permettant aux gouvernements, ONG et entreprises de la combiner avec leurs propres données. Les premiers tests concernent déjà le suivi de la végétation autour des lignes électriques ou la surveillance de la pollution près des écoles. Selon la firme, son système de prévision des inondations protège déjà plus de deux milliards de personnes à travers le monde, et ses alertes ont touché quinze millions d'habitants lors des incendies de Californie cette année. Avec Gemini, Google entend désormais passer d'une simple vision du monde… à une compréhension proactive des risques climatiques. Hébergé par Acast.

Bon, là Leslie, ce n'était pas rendez-vous dans dix ans… mais dans trente ans ! C'est une belle histoire d'amitié et de nostalgie : treize anciens camarades de classe se sont retrouvés dans la cour de récré de leur enfance, dans le nord-est de la France, plus de trois décennies après leur photo de classe d'origine. À l'époque, ils avaient 10 ans. Aujourd'hui, ils en ont 40. Ils ont ressorti les mêmes tenues vintage, pris les mêmes poses, et surtout retrouvé la même complicité. Certains affirment même qu'ils n'ont pas changé. Le moment a été si fort qu'ils se sont déjà promis de se revoir dans dix ans, pour fêter leurs 50 ans ensemble.Cette anecdote a inspiré Leslie à fouiller d'autres retrouvailles incroyables, souvent rendues possibles grâce à… Internet.

Episode 27 of The Art of Teaching Business podcast!In this episode, I share my experiences and practical strategies for motivating unmotivated students in the classroom. I outline five key approaches: triggering curiosity (through storytelling and Google Earth), using pop culture, gamifying lessons, incorporating props and hands-on activities, and letting students help create class mission, vision, and code of ethics. I also share some heartfelt stories of former students to remind teachers that sometimes, true impact emerges long after students leave the classroom.Resources mentioned in (or related to) this podcast:1️⃣⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠Taylor Swift Marketing Lessons2️⃣⁠⁠⁠ ⁠Pumpkin Spice Seasonal Marketing Class & Economics Case Study Activity Lesson3️⃣ ⁠Google Earth - Computer Applications4️⃣ Personal Finance Quest Fun Learning Activity5️⃣ Business Quest Activity6️⃣ ⁠'Map Your Taxes' - Personal Finance Class Lesson7️⃣⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Business Ethics UnitIf you liked this episode, throw me a like and leave a comment!Visit my website at ⁠http://www.business-ed.com⁠.THANKS FOR LISTENING!-Denise Leigh

Send us a textWelcome to the very first EmberCast, a new short-form addition to the Fire Investigation INFOCUS Podcast. These mini-episodes are designed to spark curiosity and deliver timely insights in between our full episodes. In this kickoff EmberCast, Chasity and Scott are joined by Jesse Sprague, founder of Echo Spectra, to talk about an innovative new tool for wildfire investigation. Jesse shares how his background in geology, computer science, and mapping led him to develop a free mobile app that allows investigators to document wildfire origin and cause scenes with precision. Built to align with the PMS 412 guidelines, the app enables users to capture directional indicators, tie them directly to photos and metadata, and export results into formats like Google Earth—complete with styled arrows, orientation, and photo logs.Throughout the conversation, Jesse explains the app's capabilities, from tracking advancing, lateral, and backing indicators, to overlaying wind vectors, lightning strike data, and land ownership information. He also shares upcoming features like polygons, boundary mapping, and turkey tracks to enhance scene documentation. Scott and Chasity highlight the value this tool brings to investigators at all levels—whether new to the field or seasoned experts—by consolidating critical data into one intuitive platform. With Echo Spectra's blend of technology and fire science, investigators now have a powerful, accessible way to streamline their work and elevate their reporting.This episode is a must-listen for anyone working in fire investigation, wildland fire response, or legal teams supporting fire cases. And the best part? The Echo Spectra app is completely free to download, making it an incredible resource for the community.Thank you for listening!

In this episode, grazing expert Jim Gerrish explores how digital mapping tools are revolutionizing grazing management for producers of all sizes. Drawing from his decades of experience—and looking ahead to his Advanced School on Grazing Economics and Mapping Tools—Jim explains how modern software and mobile apps are helping producers better plan, monitor, and optimize grazing systems.

July is the crucial time to prepare for archery elk season by practicing shooting and improving cardio.- The podcast will discuss elk hunting strategies throughout July, progressing from basic to more advanced techniques.- Emphasis on improving shooting skills for successful elk hunts. The Life Outdoors: Ministry and Purpose- The Life Outdoors is a ministry that encourages spending time outdoors to discover spiritual truths and connect with God.- The podcast aims to help listeners understand their love for the outdoors and its deeper meaning.- Self-reflection on why one loves the outdoors is considered important for personal growth. Strategic Mindset for Successful Elk Hunting- Adopting a strategic mindset and creating a plan is essential for successful elk hunting.- Caution against being overly focused on killing, emphasizing the importance of enjoying the journey and learning from the experience.- Hunting should provide relaxation and spiritual fulfillment, not just the pursuit of a kill. Key Steps for New Elk Hunters- The first step is to identify areas that hold elk, considering game department resources and the accessibility of hunting locations.- The second step is to locate specific ground within those areas where elk are likely to be found, using tools like Google Earth to identify water sources and bedding areas.- The next steps involve figuring out how to hunt the elk on that ground, making a plan, and preparing for that plan. Finding Elk and Suitable Hunting Grounds- Focus on areas known to hold elk, utilizing resources like game departments to identify units with elk populations.- Consider the accessibility of hunting grounds within those units, as some areas may have elk primarily on private land.- Look for concentrated elk populations in areas with limited drainage, as these may be more productive than units with scattered elk. Ground Reconnaissance for Elk Hunting- Use Google Earth to scout for benches, water holes, and creek beds that elk frequent.- Look for northern slopes as potential bedding areas and old rubs as indicators of recurring elk presence.- Note that elk rutting behavior may vary depending on weather conditions, with drier years potentially leading to later ruts. Summer Scouting for Future Elk Hunting- Scout potential hunting areas in July to identify elk presence and movement patterns.- Focus on locating herds of cows, as they tend to stay in the same general area throughout the summer and into September.- Understanding elk movement patterns is crucial for developing effective hunting strategies.Elk Tips 2025 #1

Industrial expansion has left an indelible mark on our natural world, fundamentally altering landscapes and ecosystems for the sake of material progress and modern convenience. This transformation has created an environmental challenge of unprecedented scale. In today's show, we'll connect the dots between the raw materials that make up our planet and the industrial forces visually altering our contemporary landscape in a chat with a photographer who's documented these profound global changes firsthand for the past 50 years. Applying visual principals rooted in abstract expressionist painting, Edward Burtynsky has explored a wide range of photographic tools in his image making—from large format film to high-res digital cameras mounted to the most sophisticated of drones. Included among our many discussion topics are his distinctive approach to translating a 3-D landscape to the flat plane of a photograph; his various methods for capturing aerials using either a helicopter, fixed wing aircraft, or various types of drones; and the early business epiphany that led him to open a photo lab as an income stream, rather than work as a camera for hire. As Burtynsky shares during our chat, about the connection between nature and industry: “You know, materials are an incredibly key part of modern society. And yet we need to go to sources in nature, where these materials are found. And I'm just reconnecting a reality that we still live in a material world, and our cities are built of molecules that came from somewhere, and I'm taking you to those places that are vast and huge.” Guest: Edward Burtynsky Episode Timeline: 2:58: Burtynsky's early interest in abstract expressionist painting combined with the magic and rituals of composing images with a large format camera 5:28: Planning for aerial views, the shift from using a minerals map in the past to Google Earth today, plus Burtynsky's shooting preferences between a helicopter and a drone and shooting open air. 10:22: Burtynsky's approach to translating a 3-D landscape to the flat plane of a photograph. 17:17: The planning and research behind Burtynsky's work vs the need to pivot in the field. 19:45: Adapting to technology over a 50-year career, and how it's shaped Burtynsky's process—from large format film to high end digital on a drone. 23:16: Episode Break 23:59: Burtynsky talks about permissions to access mines and industrial sites and how this has changed over time. 31:44: A wrong turn on the highway in 1981 and the photos that led Burtynsky to an epiphany about human-altered landscapes.  35:48: Burtynsky talks about forming his photo lab Toronto Image Works as a ballast to provide income in printing for other photographers while pursuing personal fine art photo projects. 43:38: Burtynsky's retrospective exhibit at the ICP in New York, his thoughts about the future of technology, plus recent collaborations with a young artist working in Artificial Intelligence.   Guest Bio:  Edward Burtynsky has spent more than 40 years bearing witness to the impact human industry on our planet. Regarded as one of the world's most accomplished contemporary photographers, Burtynsky's work is included in the collections of more than 80 museums worldwide and featured in major exhibitions around the globe. Born in St. Catharines, Ontario in 1955, Burtynsky's early exposure to a nearby General Motors plant and ships navigating the Welland Canal in his hometown captured his imagination, helping to formulate his ideas about the scale of human creation he would later capture in photographs. These images explore the collective impact we as a species have on the surface of this planet. A select list of Burtynsky's many distinctions include the inaugural TED Prize, the title of Officer of the Order of Canada, the International Center of Photography's Infinity Award for Art, a Royal Photographic Society Honorary Fellowship, and the World Photography Organization's Outstanding Contribution to Photography Award. Burtynsky currently holds nine honorary doctorate degrees, and in addition to his work in photography, he was a key production figure in the award-winning documentary film trilogy Manufactured Landscapes, Watermark, and ANTHROPOCENE: The Human Epoch. All three films continue to play in festivals around the world.

*Warning* Bad sound quality - apologies!In this special live edition of the AI/XR Podcast from Augmented World Expo (AWE) 2025, hosts Charlie Fink and Ted Schilowitz are joined by returning guests from Zappar, co-founders Connell Gauld (CTO) and Casper Thykier (CEO) and Auki Labs' CEO Nils Phil, to explore how AI and spatial computing are merging in real-world environments. The conversation spotlights Zapper's Mattercraft platform and its use of “accessible QR codes” to enable spatial navigation and real-time AR experiences without downloading an app. Nils introduces the idea of “collaborative machine perception” as a necessary condition for robots to navigate and work in the physical world—what he calls the “great reversal,” where AI exits the digital and enters the real. Later, XR Guild co-founder Avi Bar-Zeev joins to discuss ethics in XR, the need for community mentorship, and the importance of preserving the creator ecosystem in the age of AI scraping. The conversation closes with personal reflections on past projects like Aladdin's Magic Carpet Ride, Google Earth, and HoloLens.Thank you to our sponsor, Zappar!Don't forget to like, share, and follow for more!

Wayne Courreges III is a Marine Corps veteran and the founder of CRI Partners, a real estate investment firm focused on building generational wealth through multifamily and entrepreneurial assets. After a 16-year career in asset and property management with CBRE, Wayne transitioned full-time to real estate investing in 2023. He now leads a $50M portfolio that spans value-add multifamily, RV/boat storage development, and strategic commercial projects in Texas and the Southeast.     Make sure to download our free guide, 7 Questions Every Passive Investor Should Ask, here. Key Takeaways Wayne's journey from Marine Corps to CBRE to full-time real estate entrepreneur was fueled by long-term vision and layered income streams. Asset management and development experience allowed him to take calculated risks while building CRI Partners. His model includes multifamily investments (80%) and entrepreneurial projects like RV/boat storage and mixed-use developments (20%). For passive investors, education is key—ask the right questions, vet the sponsor, and understand the deal before wiring money. Taking action and surrounding yourself with experienced mentors are essential to building momentum and avoiding costly mistakes.     Topics From W-2 to Full-Time Investor Started investing while working in commercial real estate at CBRE. Created income through asset management fees, acquisition fees, and development work before making the leap. Made the switch when he realized he couldn't serve both CBRE clients and investors at the level they deserved. Why Multifamily Is Still the Foundation 80% of his portfolio is traditional value-add multifamily across Houston and San Antonio. Focuses on deals in strong, secondary markets with stable rent growth and access to workforce housing. Prioritizes transparency, conservative underwriting, and investor trust. Entrepreneurial Investments: RV, Boat & Business Storage Developed a 20x50 enclosed storage facility based on lessons from a successful Huntsville, AL deal. Business tenants include HVAC companies, disaster response teams, stagers, athletic companies, ranchers, and state agencies. Facility design and location (highway visibility, 100k+ population) drive demand and retention. Diversification Through Local Development Acquired and rezoned 12 acres for a 150-unit multifamily development and SpringHill Suites hotel in Bryan, TX. Emphasizes that high-risk projects like these are only pursued when they're local and manageable. Maintains a disciplined approach—stabilize one asset before scaling the next. Educating Passive Investors Created PassiveInvestorCoaching.com to help LPs learn how to vet sponsors, markets, and opportunities. Teaches how to assess underwriting, ask better questions, and avoid the most common mistakes. Encourages LPs to start small and grow confidence through informed investing.

Two hundred years ago, geologists determined that there was never a worldwide flood.But the early geologists' conclusion--which continues to be believed today--is indisputably erroneous, according to Michael Jaye, Ph.D.Told in easily understood language, Jaye explains how geologists got it so wrong, and more importantly, he challenges their modern-day peers to examine foundational beliefs, especially in the presence of new map data. Along the way, he identifies and rectifies geology's historic error and its consequences, answering questions such as:Why do geologists believe that there was never a worldwide flood? How is this belief erroneous?How did submerged structures like Monterey Canyon form? What process do geologists ascribe to their formation?In what way are Google Earth and Google Maps similar to Galileo's telescope?With new map data revealing submerged rivers in more than two miles of water, it's clear that such a volume could only have a cosmic source.Jaye identifies the impact remnants, and he explains how its effects irreversibly changed Earth's ecosystem. Humans are among surviving species, but we find ourselves ill-adapted to the post-flood ecosystem.Discover a historical, scientific, and philosophical treatment of The Worldwide Flood--it will forever change the way you consider Earth and human history.Michael Jaye, Ph.D., recently retired as an associate professor at the Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey, California. He previously spent fifteen years teaching mathematics and its applications at West Point, New York. His interest in the worldwide flood began with Google Maps images of the Monterey Canyon system.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/earth-ancients--2790919/support.
