This week Jamesy and Brando go back in time to Jan 2026 to the Thunder Bay International Film Festival. Join us as we sit down with Cal Straub and Kathy Johnson and discuss some not so usual parts of diving the Great Lakes.

It's been a week. Canada/US relations have never been so low. Attacks on each other's trade strategies, attacks on our sovereignty, even a pathetic, rather lame attack on one of the Great Lakes that shares our joint border. Sounds like enough for a final, special summer episode of Good Talk. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Donald Trump just signed an executive order to rename Lake Ontario to Lake America. This, of course, gives us a fitting new acronym to remember the names of the Great Lakes: S-H-A-M-E. But it also comes amidst an intensifying, nonsensical trade war with Canada that will have serious economic consequences for millions of Americans. And all this for what? Norm Ornstein and David Rothkopf are back to discuss the administration's trade war with Canada, the current situation with Iran, and the political landscape as we inch closer to the midterm elections.

(Courtesy PGA) The PGA Tour has bestowed one of its highest honors, the Payne Stewart Award, to a four-time PGA Tour winner who is also a citizen of the Navajo Nation. KJZZ's Gabriel Pietrorazio has details. Born and raised in Albuquerque, New Mexico, Notah Begay III excelled at swinging a club. His success on the fairway afforded him the chance to play college golf beside Tiger Woods at Stanford University – winning a national team championship in 1994. Begay is widely considered the first Indigenous golfer to compete on the PGA Tour. When accepting the award on Tuesday, Begay noted how Native Americans have the lowest graduation rates and life expectancies in the U.S. among all ethnicities. “So for me to be standing up here as a Stanford graduate with a degree in economics, four-time PGA Tour winner and a television broadcaster accepting this prestigious award is a miracle.” Entrance to White Mesa Mill in southeastern Utah. (Photo: Gabriel Pietrorazio / KJZZ) A uranium mining company missed a Monday deadline to turn over communications between its executives and the feds. KNAU's Chris Clements reports that is according to House Democrats, who have launched an investigation into Energy Fuels for potential insider trading. Two House Democrats allege the Trump administration may have tipped Energy Fuels off about the cut to Bears Ears National Monument before it happened, leading company executives to invest in their own firm. One of the Democrats is U.S. Rep. Jared Huffman, D-California. “The timing and the volume of these stock purchases are conspicuous and speak for themselves.” Huffman asked the company to send a year's worth of communications with the feds, as well as its lobbying contracts, by August 24, but Energy Fuels did not provide the materials by that deadline, according to a spokesperson for Huffman. In a statement, the company said it strongly rejects the idea that anything improper took place, but did not deny that it missed the deadline. Energy Fuels stands to benefit from less protections to the uranium-rich monument, the lawmakers argue, because the company owns the White Mesa Mill, the only conventional uranium processing mill in the United States. Gov. Tim Walz, D-Minnesota, has signed an executive order blocking new state mineral leases and halting permitting work for proposed nonferrous mining projects in the Rainy River Headwaters Watershed near the Boundary Waters. The National Congress of American Indians praised the move, saying it protects treaty rights, Tribal resources, and culturally significant lands from potential mining-related pollution. NCAI also recognized the Bois Forte, Fond du Lac, and Grand Portage Bands of Lake Superior Chippewa. The three 1854 Treaty Tribes have pushed for protections in the region and earlier this year joined the Red Lake Nation and an Anishinaabe First Nation in Canada in a cross-border effort to protect the watershed. NCAI Executive Director Larry Wright Jr. says the order provides immediate relief, but permanent protections are still needed. The organization is calling for federal legislation permanently withdrawing the Boundary Waters and Rainy River Headwaters from mineral leasing and development.

The letter came during Pontiac's War, when a confederation of Native nations fought British forces around the Great Lakes and Ohio Valley. Amherst also supported efforts to spread smallpox among Native people, one of the most infamous examples of biological warfare discussed during the colonial era.

This week we talk about borders, trade wars, and belligerence.We also discuss Trump's tariffs, inflation, and nationalism.Recommended Book: Vulture Capitalism by Grace BlakeleyTranscriptThe US and Canada share the longest international border in the world, totaling more than 5,500 miles, or nearly 8,900 km. The specific details of this border have changed over the decades, but the current delineation was largely in place following the San Juan Islands water arbitration of 1872, which brought a 12-year joint military standoff between the US and Great Britain, known as the Pig War, to an end, and fed into a 1908 legal framework that relied on modern mapping of the entire frontier, which led to the precise cartography of the current international border between the US and Canada.Since then, after some issues with gold rush-era land rights were figured out in Alaska, and some treaties were signed regarding the disarmament of the Great Lakes, things have been pretty calm along this massive border. Trade hasn't always been the most efficient and free—the early 20th century in particular was pretty fraught in this regard, as Anti-Americanism raged through Canada. That led to a dismissal of a proposed lowering of trade barriers by the Canadian Liberal government in 1911, anti-American sentiment flogged by the Conservatives, who rode their slogan, “No truck or trade with the Yankees,” to a Canadian nationalism-powered victory.After the US entered WWI and the Allies tallied a victory, though, the US and Canada exchanged their first ambassadors, Warren Harding became the first US President to make an official visit the confederated Canada, visiting Vancouver in 1923, and things between these two countries were looking pretty good until 1930, when the US passed the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act, which was a protectionist trade act that, among other things, raised tariffs on incoming Canadian goods in order to protect competing American business interests; making the local offerings artificially more competitive than the stuff coming in from Canada, basically.The Canadian government hit back with their own higher tariffs and shifted more of their trade to other Commonwealth nations, which led to a decrease in trade between the US and Canada of about 75%; and this was happening during the Great Depression, which is why that Act was enacted, the US government was hoping to bolster their own economy, but instead of helping, it furthered those economic difficulties, because of that drop in trade and international custom—Smoot-Hawley is generally considered to have been an incredibly bad economic move, and US President Hoover signed it against the advice of senior economists, because it seemed politically expedient, US businesses were clamoring for advantages because they thought it would help them, but instead it worsened the Great Depression, and this Act is now taught as a cautionary example of why protectionist trade policies, while appealing in a nationalist sense, tend to be pretty bad, almost always, economically.US-Canadian relations improved a bit in the WWII-era, and into the early decades of the Cold War. By the late-1960s, the US had become Canada's largest export market, and that's why Nixon's 1971 decision to enact a 10% tariff on all imports, including those from Canada, hit the Canadian economy so hard. Overall US-Canadian relations soured during Nixon's time in the White House, in part because the Canadian government pivoted toward Europe, rather than kowtowing to the US' economic demands, and Nixon's belligerence in the face of that pivot didn't help matters.When US President Carter stepped into office, however, things improved for a while, and though there were serious bouts of stagflation in both nations through his time in the White House, American investment in Canada increased, and relations continued to be friendly leading into the 1990s, at which point the North American Free Trade Agreement, or NAFTA was signed, in 1994. NAFTA created a common market in North America, between the US, Canada, and Mexico, and that meant the $19 trillion or so in trade between the 470 million people or so living in North America by 2014, would be entirely or almost entirely without barriers, no tariffs or very small, focused tariffs.Though imperfect by many measures, NAFTA is generally considered to have been a major success, at least in terms of raw economic productivity in North America. And in 2020, is was replaced by the USMCA, the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement, which is often called NAFTA 2.0, which is in many ways just a modernization of NAFTA that updates many of the earlier provisions and focuses more on digital trade and intellectual property than its precursor.In July of 2026, however, the US government announced that it would not be renewing the USMCA, after Canada asked the US and Mexico to renew it for another 16 years. The pact remains in effect until it expires in 2036, though it can also be renegotiated or replaced before that. The US Trump administration pointed at rising trade deficits between the US and both Mexico and Canada as the rationale for not renewing it, and at loopholes in the agreement that allowed other nations, like China, to send car components to Mexico and then essentially get Chinese vehicles into North American markets, benefitting from the agreement despite not being a signatory of it.What I'd like to talk about today is a new trade scuffle between the US and Canadian governments, and what it might mean for the two nations in the coming years if said scuffle becomes a more persistent trade war.—In July of 2026, US President Trump threatened to invoke a provision of the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act, that Act from 1930, the Great Depression, which was previously unused, to impose additional tariffs on Canada, despite the continued existence of the USMCA trade agreement.Stepping back a bit, in his second administration, Trump has unilaterally imposed all kinds of tariffs on pretty much everybody, arguing that those tariffs would bring in more money and thus allow him to lower taxes on the wealthy and on businesses while still bringing in enough to reduce the federal deficit. This claim wasn't backed by economists and the deficit has continued to increase at a record rate under his administration, but he's continued to try this approach and make these claims, regardless.The Supreme Court eventually stepped in to limit Trump's ability to impose tariffs in early 2026, saying that the Presidency doesn't have the power to create a bunch of tariffs and impose them on everyone, even when he points at the International Emergency Economic Powers Act as justification. That halting of Trump's tariffs seem to have helped temper inflation in the US a bit, but now Trump is now taking another approach to try to accomplish the same, invoking this 1930, Great Depression-era act to try to give himself broad tariff-applying powers, once more, despite that Supreme Court decision.As I mentioned in the intro, the application of Smoot-Hawley tariffs worsened the Great Depression, as the US applied all these tariffs on foreign goods to try to give its own industries an advantage, and that led to counter-tariffs from most of its targets. Within a few years, the people behind those tariffs were booted from office, and the bad taste it left in the US government's mouth is part of what led to the wave of trade liberalization that happened post-WWII—everyone was done with the heavily tariffed trade environment because it kind of sucked for everyone, so free trade was the name of the game for decades.Now at the time, even though the tariffs had a net-negative impact on the US, they didn't exactly crush the US because international trade only made up about 10% of the US economy back then. Today, about 25-27% of US GDP relies on international trade. So still not a majority by any means, and the global average is about 63%, so the US is more capable of undertaking this sort of trade barrier strategy than many other nations, but that's still a pretty substantial chunk of economic activity in the US that's impacted by such efforts.This declaration by Trump that he would be using this old Tariff act to apply new tariffs on Canadian goods arrived after trade negotiations between the US and Canada fell apart, reportedly mere minutes before a deadline, with both sides claiming to the press that the other side attempted to make a last-minute change that was untenable.After Trump announced that additional 50% tariff on certain goods, the Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney announce that he would be matching those tariffs, dollar for dollar—a move that's likely to hurt Canada more than the US, though many US industries, including those that are already hurting because of resource shortages that have been amplified by Trump's war with Iran and the consequent shut-down of the Strait of Hormuz, not to mention all the uncertainties that have arisen because of his other tariff threats, those industries and businesses will suffer more than most; the US auto industry, for instance, relies on goods that pass back and forth across the Canadian border several times before eventually ending up in US-made automobiles. The US construction industry is likewise reliant on Canadian lumber products.It seems like Canada has generally tried to work with the US government to come to a mutually beneficial and appealing compromise, but when that happens, the US then pushes for more, then blames Canada for fighting back when the US attempts to punish them for not just giving in. And this is something the Trump administration, and Trump himself, have become fairly notorious for, so it's a decent assumption, even though we don't know all the details here, yet, that this is what happened in this case, too.And as a result, it sounds like the US will apply 50% tariffs on about $20 billion worth of Canadian goods coming into the US, including things like honey, seeds, and agricultural products, and some types of furniture, clothing, and fabric.About 72% of all Canadian exports went to the US in 2025, and many of those exports, the ones to which this new tariff will be applied, will now be more expensive, because these costs are almost always passed on to the end-consumer, not just eaten by the business, which in some cases wouldn't be able to afford to eat those higher costs and stay in business. This is part of why these sorts of tariffs often increase inflation rates.Both sides of this conflict have publicly committed to not back down, and there's political hay to be made in sticking with that sentiment; the US is not terribly popular in Canada, or in many allied countries, right now, due to the antagonistic stance the Trump administration has taken toward those relations, so the Canadian government might actually benefit from taking a hard line against the US, here. Likewise, Trump's supporters might rally around his bullying of a neighboring nation, especially if the administration can successfully frame this as an effort to reduce the deficit or support US businesses, protecting them from foreign competitors are are unfairly competing.There's still a fair bit of fog of war on all of this, and we'll know a lot more within the next few weeks, both in terms of the details of what happened, and in terms of what's likely to happen next. Right now, though, it would seem that we could be headed for a new trade war between two of the world's most deeply intertwined wealthy economies, and that could lead to a lot of global economic disruptions as some of that trade is rerouted, and as inflation continues to spiral.Show Noteshttps://apnews.com/article/trump-tariffs-canada-us-trade-war-293908564c7a381ea58a61db6e9a8517https://apnews.com/article/canada-us-trade-tariffs-trump-857ef76b20a766e370d70176135b678ehttps://apnews.com/article/canada-us-trade-war-trump-carney-tariffs-4d18583fe52134ca8550652ad9772d2chttps://www.nytimes.com/2026/08/22/business/economy-trade-war-us-canada.htmlhttps://www.axios.com/2026/02/20/trump-tariffs-supreme-court-illegalhttps://access.heinonline.com/HOL/LandingPagehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_American_Free_Trade_Agreementdoi.org/10.1017%2FS0022050700019549https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smoot%E2%80%93Hawley_Tariff_Acthttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canada%E2%80%93United_States_trade_relationshttps://www.axios.com/2026/08/22/us-canada-tariffs-trade-trump-carneyhttps://www.npr.org/2026/08/22/nx-s1-5941584/us-canada-tariffshttps://apnews.com/article/canada-us-trade-tariffs-trump-857ef76b20a766e370d70176135b678ehttps://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cvgvyy4x2mvohttps://www.nytimes.com/2026/08/22/world/canada/carney-trump-canada-tariffs.html This is a public episode.

Hello and Welcome to another episode of Ohio Mysteries Backroads. What lurks in the shadows of Ohio's backroads, forgotten cemeteries, and hidden corners of history? Join us as we uncover the Buckeye State's most chilling legends, mysterious sightings, and enduring folklore. Marblehead Lighthouse: The Guardian of Lake Erie Perched on the rocky shores of Lake Erie, the Marblehead Lighthouse has stood watch over Ohio's dangerous western basin for nearly two centuries. In this episode of Ohio Mysteries Backroads, we travel to the Marblehead Peninsula to explore the history, legends, shipwrecks, keepers, and stories surrounding one of Ohio's most recognizable landmarks. Built in 1822, Marblehead Lighthouse is the oldest continuously operating lighthouse on the Great Lakes. For generations, its beacon has guided ships safely around the rocky Marblehead Peninsula and toward the harbors of Lake Erie. But behind that familiar tower is a fascinating history filled with storms, treacherous waters, lighthouse keepers, and the ever-present danger of the lake. We'll look at why the lighthouse was built, what life was like for the keepers and their families, and how the technology of the light changed over the years. We'll also explore some of the dramatic storms and maritime disasters that occurred in the waters surrounding Marblehead—and the stories of the men and women who kept the light burning when Lake Erie turned violent. From the lonely life of a lighthouse keeper to the ships battling darkness, fog, ice, and massive waves, the Marblehead Lighthouse is more than a beautiful landmark. It is a reminder of the dangerous relationship between Ohio and the Great Lakes. So join Dan and Stephen as we head down the backroads to Marblehead, Ohio, and uncover the history and mysteries behind the Marblehead Lighthouse—the guardian of Lake Erie. Blending local history, eyewitness accounts, folklore, and a healthy dose of skepticism, this podcast explores the legends that refuse to die.

In the last few episodes we have tracked the miraculous discovery of gold on the Witwatersrand — the importance of which cannot really be overstated. While diamonds placed South Africa on the map, gold was going to convert the struggling region into a financial paradise for British financiers — and therein lies the imperial rub. However, it's time to step back a tad to provide an historical overview for the late 1880s and it's also time to zoom out of southern Africa to take a good hard look at global events. For centuries before European powers drew border lines across maps of the continent, the western Indian Ocean functioned as a single economic basin. Fleets of dhow's linked Gujarat, the Persian Gulf, the South Arabian coast, and the Swahili littoral, their journey's dictated by the predictable rhythm of the monsoon winds which blow southwest toward Africa from November to March and reverse northeast toward Arabia and India from April to September, This was a commercial matrix of city-states fueled by the exchange of African ivory, timber, gold, and slaves for Indian textiles, Chinese porcelain, and Middle Eastern metalwork. The Sultanate of Zanzibar was born directly out of this maritime deep history. In 1840, Sultan Seyyid Said of Oman moved his royal court from Muscat to Stone Town on the island of Zanzibar. By anchoring his authority off the East African coast, he consolidated control over the lucrative trade routes stretching deep into the African interior to the Great Lakes. The island served as a massive commercial emporium and agricultural power, built heavily on clove plantations operated by slaves while Indian merchant financiers—the banyans—backed the long-distance caravans into the mainland. Sultan Barghash bin Said was a proud son of the legendary Seyyid Said, inheriting the throne of Stone Town in 1870 while his brother Majid was bequethed Oman itself. Sharper and more ambitious than Majid, Barghash spent his eighteen-year reign modernizing Zanzibar—building piped water systems, telegraph links, and grand stone palaces. But his survival relied on a faustian bargain. Guided by Sir John Kirk—the British Consul-General who became his shadow advisor—Barghash aligned his dynasty entirely with London. Kirk was the single most influential British official in East Africa during the late 19th century. A Scottish physician, naturalist, and explorer, he first gained prominence as David Livingstone's trusted second-in-command on the Zambezi Expedition between 1858 and 1864. In 1866, he was appointed to the British Agency in Zanzibar, eventually rising to become Consul-General and Political Agent. When German agent Carl Peters began seizing territory on the mainland, London chose European alliance-building with Berlin over its promises to Zanzibar. In 1873, under direct British gunboat pressure, Barghash signed the treaty that outlawed the maritime slave trade and shut down Stone Town's notorious public slave market. It was an act of political self-mutilation; it deeply alienated his own Omani elite and rich plantation owners, but Barghash traded his domestic standing for what he believed was an ironclad guarantee of British protection over his mainland empire. Unfortunately, that gamble proved fatal. The Foreign Office in London watched the global map with growing anxiety as rival flags sprouted across the continent. What infuriated British diplomats most was a sudden, unnatural alliance between their two greatest rivals: France and Germany. Furious over Britain's unilateral grab of Egypt in 1882, the French teamed up with Otto von Bismarck to check British ambition. London had tried a sly maneuver in West Africa—signing a treaty with a weak Portugal to recognize Portuguese control over the mouth of the Congo, effectively using Lisbon as a buffer to keep other powers out. But Bismarck saw right through it.

Welcome to Roam Fish Powered by Naughty Nymph Co Host: Tony Fellows Welcome to Tying with Tony. A fun mini-series that Tony records as he is tying some flies. He could talks about world events, fishing updates, weather, and anything else that comes to mind. For this episode Tony covers a fast-moving Michigan outdoors update while tying tiny waltz worms on size 16 and 14 jig hooks. The episode centers on two big conservation topics - the NRC meeting and the proposed sale of 13 hydroelectric dams - with a second half focused on invasive species management in the Great Lakes. In this solo update, Tony shares what happened at the NRC meeting, why the earn a buck pilot program matters to deer hunters, and why the dam sale to Confluence Hydro is drawing concern. He also breaks down how zebra mussels and round gobies are affecting Michigan waters and why the latest management idea is both practical and ironic. Thanks for following along!

Besides, there's plenty to be done. The horrifying research I did for this episode might turn me into an environmental activist from a geopolitical position - things are going to get wild. States will collapse, wars will happen. Gone will be the days of carrier strike groups or even drones as global supply chains break down and all the evangelicals will be euphoric seeing that the end is nigh. There are going to crisis cults popping up everywhere - UFO cults, AI machine god cults - 4 billion people could die in the 25-30 years, and the bottomline is that we here at RFEmedia will still be transmitting this podcast and our Thursday livestream, if we live, from the Great Lakes region of the continental United States.Today we are joined by friend of the show, Michael Mezzatesta, a storyteller working at the intersection of economics, climate, and culture. His work reaches tens of millions of viewers each month and is recognized for making complex economic and climate issues accessible to a mainstream audience.

How small is too small for the Great Lakes?This week, Ang and Pete answer a listener who wants to take his 16-foot aluminum boat onto Lake Ontario and Georgian Bay. The crew gives a blunt breakdown of where a smaller boat belongs, how fast calm water can become dangerous, and why even an experienced boater can get trapped when the wind turns.The guys also return from Key Harbour Lodge at the mouth of the Key River, where they battled heavy rain, rough water, hidden granite, and some of Georgian Bay's most overlooked fishing. With walleye, northern pike, smallmouth bass, and barely another boat in sight, this boat-access-only lodge delivered a true Northern Ontario adventure.Also in this episode:• Does forward-facing sonar actually help anglers catch bigger fish?• A new study puts modern fishing technology to the test• The crew discovers an invasive goby in the Key River area• Why Georgian Bay's best fishing can also be its most intimidating• Navigating unfamiliar water with charts, GPS tracks, and common sense

On this episode of Destination on the Left, I talk with Sally Berry, Tourism Director for Great Lakes USA and Cruise the Great Lakes. Sally shares how an unexpected career path led her into tourism and eventually to one of the industry's most collaborative regional organizations. We discuss the power of partnerships, the rapid growth of Great Lakes cruising, and why thinking beyond traditional destination boundaries creates stronger visitor experiences and more resilient communities. Sally also offers practical insights into building meaningful collaborations that benefit destinations, visitors, and the tourism industry as a whole. What You Will Learn in This Episode: How Sally's unconventional career journey shaped her collaborative leadership style Why regional partnerships create greater value for international visitors and industry stakeholders How Cruise the Great Lakes is helping destinations prepare for continued cruise tourism growth What memorable destination welcomes look like, and why they leave a lasting impression on visitors Why successful collaborations depend on a diversity of perspectives and shared goals How creative partnerships across states, provinces, and organizations lead to stronger tourism products What opportunities Sally sees ahead for the Great Lakes region through sustainability, stewardship, and collaboration Collaboration Is the Competitive Advantage Throughout our conversation, Sally makes a compelling case that collaboration isn't simply a nice idea—it's one of tourism's greatest competitive advantages. Leading initiatives that span eight states and two Canadian provinces requires balancing different priorities while helping partners recognize the value of working toward common goals. Rather than expecting every destination to participate in every initiative, Sally focuses on matching opportunities with the destinations best positioned to benefit, creating stronger outcomes for both individual communities and the region as a whole. She also shares how collaboration flourishes when organizations embrace different perspectives. Strong partnerships need enthusiastic champions, thoughtful protectors, and even healthy skeptics who ask the difficult questions. Those varied viewpoints ultimately strengthen projects, deepen trust, and create initiatives that are more successful over the long term. Turning First Impressions Into Lasting Connections As Great Lakes cruising continues its impressive growth, Sally shares how destinations are embracing the opportunity to create unforgettable welcomes for visitors arriving by ship. Communities are greeting passengers with local musicians, historical interpreters, regional cuisine, and experiences that immediately reflect the character of the destination. These authentic touches create meaningful first impressions while giving visitors a genuine sense of place. Beyond the excitement of arrival day, Sally explores the broader impact cruise tourism has on local economies. Many passengers spend additional time in port cities before or after their voyages, and countless visitors discover communities they later return to explore in greater depth. For many Great Lakes destinations, cruise tourism is becoming an important gateway for introducing travelers to places they may never have considered visiting before. Investing in Relationships That Strengthen the Industry One theme consistently surfaces throughout Sally's career: tourism is built on relationships. From mentors who helped her navigate unfamiliar areas of the industry to the connections she now creates through webinars, trade events, and industry education, she believes sharing knowledge strengthens the entire tourism ecosystem. Helping new professionals build confidence today creates stronger collaborators for tomorrow. Looking ahead, Sally is optimistic about the future of the Great Lakes region. As travelers seek authentic experiences beyond traditional gateway destinations, the region offers abundant natural beauty, vibrant communities, rich history, and distinctive cultural experiences. By continuing to invest in partnerships, sustainability, and destination stewardship, Great Lakes communities are positioning themselves for long-term success while demonstrating that the strongest destinations are the ones that work together.

On this episode of the Foil Life Podcast, Luc Moore sits down with Ian and Brendan of the Toronto Windsurfing Club (TWC) to explore one of Canada's longest-running and most vibrant watersports communities. Located at the eastern end of Cherry Beach in downtown Toronto's Outer Harbour, TWC has grown from a handful of members in the mid-1980s into a thriving hub with around 550–600 members, gear storage, lessons, camps, racing, and a rapidly expanding wing and wind foiling scene.Ian and Brendan share the club's origins as part of the Outer Harbor Sailing Federation, its evolution through the windsurfing boom of the 1980s, and how it has adapted to stay relevant by embracing foiling. They dive into the practical advantages of the protected location (sheltered by Tommy Thompson Park), the unique community vibe that draws people on zero-wind days for barbecues, and the Wednesday night races open to everyone. The conversation highlights the club's strong focus on the next generation through summer camps, a new Learn to Wing Foil program led by Eric O'Brien, private coaching with Max Robinson (who grew up at the club and raced professionally), and a grassroots youth high-performance development team that coaches kids on windy days via WhatsApp “bat signals.”They also discuss becoming a WeCANFoil hub, the family-friendly nature of wing foiling (Brendan's wife and daughters all ride), the quality of Great Lakes wave and downwind spots, and why foiling is extending the sporting life for riders well into their later decades.Episode Highlights:- History of TWC from the mid-80s Outer Harbor roots through name changes and steady growth into Canada's largest windsurfing club- Location advantages at Cherry Beach: protected flat water in east winds, rolling conditions in southwest, and challenging offshore days that build skill- Gear storage in 11 sea cans, membership benefits, webcam, WhatsApp groups, and real-time community coordination- Summer camp program (WeCANFoil-based levels 1–4) now integrating wing handling, longboard practice, and low-speed boat-assist foiling- New Learn to Wing Foil program and Max Robinson's private lessons (dinghy follow + video feedback)- Youth high-performance development team: volunteer pro coaches (Max Robinson, Sam Ireland, Anna Sagulenko, Simon Rickard) coaching kids on windy evenings- Weekend Foil partnership bringing X-15 boards and wind foil kits to Toronto- Family progression stories and why wing foiling is more accessible for partners and kids than previous wind sports- Great Lakes riding opportunities (Lake Ontario waves at Bluffers, Georgian Bay, Sauble Beach, Lake Huron) and the joy of maximizing days with foiling- The inclusive, multi-generational spirit that keeps 80-year-olds racing and kids developing into the next coaches and competitorsA warm, community-focused conversation packed with history, practical program insights, coaching wisdom, and genuine enthusiasm for keeping foiling and wind sports accessible, fun, and multi-generational right in the heart of a major city.Stay tuned for more great episodes, including the return of additional guests and continued adventures with host Luc Moore!Visit: https://www.torontowindsurfingclub.com/

The Declaration of Independence proclaimed that all men are endowed with the unalienable rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.But what did liberty and equality mean for the peoples the Declaration never named—the Ojibwe, Odawa, and Potawatomi nations who had governed the vast Great Lakes homeland they called Anishinaabewake for generations before a single European sailed its waters?In this revisited conversation, historian Michael Witgen, Professor of History at Columbia University and a citizen of the Red Cliff Band of Lake Superior Ojibwe, takes us inside the Anishinaabe world and reveals how the new United States set about transforming it.The answer, Witgen shows us, wasn't simple conquest. It was something more elaborate, more profitable, and in some ways more insidious: what he calls the political economy of plunder—a system engineered to strip Indigenous peoples of their homelands while funneling the wealth of that dispossession directly into the settler colonial economy.Michael's Website | Book Show Notes: https://www.benfranklinsworld.com/323 RECOMMENDED NEXT EPISODES

What separates consistently successful Great Lakes anglers from everyone else? Often, it's their ability to recognize when conditions have changed and adjust before the fish make them pay for it. In Episode 291 of the Great Lakes Fishing Podcast, host Chris Larsen is joined by three veteran Lake Ontario charter captains: Vince Pierleoni of Thrillseeker Sportfishing, Matt Yablonsky of Wet Net Charters, and Anthony Ellis of Redemption Charters. Recorded at the Greater Niagara Fishing Expo, the conversation starts with a look back at the 2025 Lake Ontario season, including the impressive coho salmon fishery, abundant alewives, healthy young Chinook salmon, and what those signs could mean for the fishery moving forward. From there, the captains get into the details of building an effective trolling program. They discuss downrigger setbacks, leader lengths, slide divers, leadcore and copper, spoon sizes, knots, rod and reel setups, and how they adjust their presentations as conditions change. Anthony also breaks down how anglers can simplify a meat program, while Vince and Matt explain why successful anglers need to “listen to the fish” instead of assuming yesterday's program will work again today. You'll also hear why late September and October can produce some outstanding Lake Ontario fishing, how wind and temperature changes relocate bait and salmon, and why anglers struggling to catch fish may actually be running too many different presentations at once. Whether you're an experienced Great Lakes troller or still building your first salmon spread, this episode is packed with practical information you can put to work the next time you hit the water.

The Green Way Conservation Club is officially here! Learn more, use the free advocacy tool, or become a founding member www.greenwayconservationclub.com In this episode of The Green Way Outdoors Podcast, Kyle, Jeff, Ryan, and AJ explain why they created the Green Way Conservation Club and how it can give Michigan hunters, anglers, trappers, and conservationists a faster, more effective way to make their individual voices heard. The club's free advocacy platform helps users learn about important outdoor issues, identify the correct elected representatives and wildlife officials, and send a message directly from their own email account. Whether someone agrees or disagrees with the Green Way Conservation Club's position, the system remains available for them to express their own view. The goal is to create a new town square for Michigan's outdoor community. Hunters and anglers will not agree on every issue, but disagreement should not prevent anyone from being represented. The platform is built around open discussion, transparent opinions, individual participation, and direct communication with the people responsible for making decisions. Kyle and Ryan also share their experience working through the Michigan United Conservation Clubs proposal process and explain why they believe the state's outdoor community needs an advocacy system that is faster, more accessible, and more transparent. The team then puts that approach into practice by examining two major Michigan issues. They break down House Bill 6008 and the debate surrounding a potential Michigan wolf season, presenting arguments from both sides before explaining the club's final position. They also examine House Bills 5801 and 5802, including the controversy surrounding expanded commercial access to walleye, yellow perch, and lake trout in the Great Lakes. The Green Way Conservation Club is also being built to connect people with hands-on opportunities. Its upcoming Conservation Calendar will help Michigan residents find river cleanups, habitat projects, tree plantings, wildlife research, and other ways to actively support the resources they care about. Members will also be able to submit emerging concerns, participate in live discussions, receive outdoor-industry benefits, and pass unused equipment along to a new hunter or angler. This episode is ultimately a call for unity. A trout fisherman may not personally participate in bear hunting, and a deer hunter may not spend much time fishing, but every part of Michigan's outdoor community has a responsibility to defend the others. The fight for conservation continues. The Green Way Conservation Club was created to make sure Michigan's hunters, anglers, and conservationists have a place to speak, participate, and be heard. #GreenWayConservationClub #MichiganConservation #MichiganOutdoors #MichiganHunters #WildlifeManagement Watch our HISTORY Channel show on:HISTORYWAYPOINT TVFollow us on:FacebookInstagramTwitterYoutubeOur Website

There’s just one place to catch a wave outside Earth: Titan, the largest moon of Saturn. It’s the only other world in the solar system with bodies of liquid on its surface. And the waves there could reach heights of 10 feet. But future surfers will need to dress carefully; the surface temperature is almost 300 degrees below zero. Titan is half-again the size of Earth’s moon, and it has a dense atmosphere. Rain fills its lakes and seas with liquid methane, ethane, and nitrogen. The largest sea covers about 200,000 square miles – twice the area of all the Great Lakes combined. It could be several hundred feet deep. The Cassini spacecraft used radar to measure Titan’s ponds. It saw waves of no more than an inch or so high. But a recent study says the waves could get a lot bigger. Based on 20 years of observations of waves on Lake Superior, scientists built a computer model of how waves might work on other worlds. The model accounted for gravity, the pressure of the atmosphere, and the properties of the liquid. When the model was applied to Titan, it showed that even gentle breezes could whip up some big waves. But the waves would move more slowly than those on Earth – a slow-motion trip across the sea. Saturn looks like a bright star close to our moon the next couple of mornings. It’ll stand to the left of the Moon at dawn tomorrow, and the lower right of the Moon on Tuesday.
