Vor 57 Jahren hat Neil Armstrong als erster Mensch den Mond betreten. Jetzt wollen die Amerikaner zurück, womöglich schon 2028 - Hauptsache schneller als China. Ist dieses Ziel realistisch oder greift der Präsident wieder nach den Sternen?In dieser Folge sprechen die ehemaligen US-Korrespondentinnen Claudia Sarre und Kerstin Klein über die Zukunft der US-Raumfahrt. Kerstin war mehrfach am Kennedy Space Center in Florida und erzählt, wie es ist, live dabei zu sein, wenn eine Rakete zum Mond starten soll. Sie meint, dass die Mission für Donald Trump eine reine Prestigefrage ist. Diesmal soll nicht nur eine Flagge gehisst werden – das Ziel sei, "permanent auf dem Mond zu bleiben und den Mond nie wieder aufzugeben". Ein Grund dafür: vermutete Rohstoffe wie Seltene Erden. Und so will Trump auf jeden Fall vor China einen Fuß auf den Mond setzen.Außerdem sprechen die beiden über den boomenden, aber umstrittenen Raumfahrttourismus. "Das Ganze ist auch wahnsinnig schlecht für die Umwelt", sagt Kerstin Klein - aufhalten lasse sich der Trend trotzdem kaum: "Es wird wahrscheinlich immer genug superreiche Menschen geben, die nicht wissen, wohin sonst mit ihrem Geld."Wie fühlt es sich an, auf einem anderen Planeten unterwegs zu sein? ARD-Korrespondentin Sarah Schmidt aus dem Studio Washington hat es ausprobiert. Sie reiste in den Westen des Landes zu einer simulierten Mars Station. In der Wüste Utahs ist das Klima tatsächlich ähnlich wie auf dem Mars – heiße Tage und kalte Nächte. Hier betreibt die Mars Society eine kleine "Raumstation", in der eine Gruppe Studierender eine Woche lang unter den Bedingungen einer echten Mission lebt. Sarah war einen Tag lang dabei – im schweren Raumanzug, mit Helm.Warum der ganze Aufwand? Für Tech-Milliardär Elon Musk ist der Mars mehr als ein Forschungsobjekt: "Er glaubt irgendwann wird es einen Doomsday geben. Indem man andere Planeten besiedelt, minimiert man das Risiko, dass wir auf einen Schlag ausgerottet werden", erklärt Sarah.Nach diesem Ausflug ins All geht's zurück auf die Erde: Nächste Woche melden sich Jiffer Bourguignon und Ingo Zamperoni aus ihrer Sommerpause mit einer neuen Folge.Ihr habt Fragen?

A bit of a wild situation in Alberta, as Premier Danielle Smith and her Public Safety Minister Mike Ellis clap back at an Edmonton Police campaign encouraging citizens to report hate speech and hate crimes.

Meantime, StatsCan says hate crimes are up in Alberta year-over-year, and have doubled across Canada since 2018.

In 1974, Mike Sinyard sold his Volkswagen van to go and buy bike components in Italy. Fifty years later, Specialized is one of the most iconic brands in world cycling — and at seventy-seven, he still rides.He welcomed me to the Morgan Hill headquarters in California, in the room they built for Peter Sagan. What was meant to be an interview about the bike industry became the most personal episode I've ever recorded.Because Mike has ADHD. Diagnosed late, like so many people. Fourteen years ago, he read the story of a kid who told his doctor: "Riding is my Ritalin." He called the doctor, learned that no pharmaceutical company would ever fund the research, and decided to fund it himself. Today, fifty thousand kids go through his OutRide foundation every year.We also talked about the Stumpjumper, born without a single piece of market research; about Robert Egger walking into a bike shop and saying "that's shit, I could do better"; about the Chinese brands and his answer to them — "it's nothing new"; about DJI's Avinox, gravel, artificial intelligence, women's racing, and his conviction that we'll soon look back at how we medicate our children the way we now look back at people smoking.⏱️ Chapters:00:00 — Introduction02:22 — Can a bike really change a life?04:09 — "Riding is my Ritalin": how OutRide began07:43 — Seventy-seven years old, and still no retirement10:31 — Finding a successor, and the soul of Specialized13:45 — Robert Egger, the Stumpjumper and the roots of the brand18:01 — Chinese brands: where does a brand's value lie?24:09 — E-bikes, Avinox and depending on a single supplier27:17 — The future of cycling, and kids on e-bikes30:28 — Racing, riders, and the price of caring37:54 — Gravel, heir to the touring bike — and riding in Asia43:03 — Artificial intelligence and cycling45:54 — What he still wants to accomplish47:04 — "We are over-medicating our children"49:48 — ADHD as a superpower50:43 — Starting over today, and Specialized in fifty years54:57 — The guest he'd like to hear, and the Green Room01:01:16 — What we can wish him01:02:55 — Closing words

What if business and labour actually agree on more than they admit? Following our August 5 conversation with Edmonton Chamber CEO Doug Griffiths, Alberta Federation of Labour president Gil McGowan weighs in on the "Norway model" a system where business, labour, and government work together to minimize work stoppages while protecting collective bargaining.

Zu viel versichert? Zu wenig? Versicherungsexperte Harry Büsser von Comparis erklärt die wichtigste Faustregel: Bevor man eine Police abschliesst, sollte man vier Fragen stellen – und zwar in dieser Reihenfolge. Die 4-Schritte-Faustregel – so geht man vor: Risiko vermeiden: Wer das Risiko gar nicht eingeht, muss es nicht versichern. Z.B. Teure Uhr zuhause lassen statt an den Strand mitnehmen. Im Ausland Bahn statt Mietwagen. Risiko vermindern: Einfache Massnahmen, die Schäden verhindern oder begrenzen. Z.B. Rauchmelder installieren, Helm tragen, Velo abschliessen, Laptop im Auto verdecken. Selbst tragen: Kleine Schäden, die einen nicht in finanzielle Not bringen, einfach aus der eigenen Tasche zahlen. Wer über Jahre Prämien zahlt, gibt oft mehr aus als er je an Schäden hätte. Versichern – aber nur bei echten Grossschäden: Die Schlüsselfrage: Würde mich dieser Schaden finanziell aus der Bahn werfen? Solche Risiken gehören versichert. Z.B. Kaputtes Handy oder zerbrochene Sonnenbrille – ärgerlich, aber kein Notfall. Ein Ambulanzjet aus Südostasien hingegen kostet schnell mehrere zehntausend Franken. Merksatz: «Versichern sollte man nicht den verlorenen Fünfliber, sondern den finanziellen Grossbrand.»

Etienne de la Boétie² discusses how the newly revealed Dialog society, which has been around since 2006, likely is the next version of Bilderberg and Trilateral Commission. He argues that these groups together with government represent an illegitimate system of organized crime designed to steal wealth through weaponized inflation and the banking system's ability to create money from nothing. The conversation highlights figures like Peter Thiel who bridge the gaps between intelligence agencies and high-tech surveillance firms like Palantir. They manufacture corporate and political “legends” like JD Vance. These organizations maintain power by controlling the manufactured consensus through media ownership and algorithmic censorship on social media. Ultimately, these groups use economic warfare to impoverish the middle class while consolidating resources for a techno-feudalist future.

His original writings and research can be found at ArtOfLiberty.org and ArtOfLiberty.Substack.com He is the author of To See the Cage Is to Leave It – 25 Techniques the Few Use to Control the Many which exposes an inter-generational psychological operation by the “government,” Hollywood, and the monopoly media to indoctrinate the population with the pseudo-religion of Statism using dozens of unethically manipulative techniques ranging from subliminal content in television programming to a hidden curriculum in the mandatory “government” schools, scouting, and police/military training. He has also authored: “Government” – The Biggest Scam in History… Exposed! which breaks down how inter-generational organized crime centered around banking and central banking is robbing and controlling the population using the technique of “government” with puppet politicians and monopoly media/academia. His upcoming book: Voluntaryism – How the Only “ISM” Fair for Everyone Leads to Harmony, Prosperity and Good Karma for All! explains how REAL freedom (voluntaryism) can provide all the legitimate non-redistributive services provided by “government” without the waste, fraud, abuse, indoctrination and extortion.

Three months out from Alberta's referendum, the campaign to keep the province in Canada is shifting into high gear. Forever Canadian founder Thomas Lukaszuk joins us in the Real Talk studio (3:00) before taking the Unity Bus back on the road.

As Alberta's independence referendum nears, there's a fundamental question most separatists (and arguably the provincial government) hasn't answered: what about First Nations' treaty rights?

How do we align the rapid, exponential rise of artificial intelligence with humanity's best interests before we reach a point of no return? In this classic throwback episode from our old Edge of AI Podcast, we sit down with tech visionary Eric Pulier, a prolific technologist who has founded over 15 companies, raised more than $1 billion, and led exits from IPOs to major mergers.In this deep dive, Eric explores his leadership roles as Co-Chair of the AI Coalition at the Future Investment Initiative (FII) Institute and CEO of Vatom. He outlines the global push for AI ethics, the looming existential threats of synthetic biology and mass deepfakes, and why preserving human culture in local AI models is crucial to preventing algorithmic erasure.Eric also reflects on inventing the "Vatom" (the virtual atom) in early 2015, the precursor to modern smart NFTs, and explains why self-sovereign identity, tokenized real-world assets, and human-first connection will dictate the next generation of the internet.Support us through our Sponsors! ☕ Want to make content like ours?

In this sponsored episode of The Edge of Show, we sit down with John Cheney, a veteran technology founder and the visionary CEO behind the General Artificial Intelligence Proficiency Institute (GenAIPI). John details his mind-blowing transition from hiring expensive development firms to utilizing "vibe coding" with platforms like Repl.it, demonstrating how he stood up a complete application infrastructure in just twenty minutes using a single architecture blueprint.The conversation dives deep into the strategic implementation of artificial intelligence within modern enterprises and the rollout of their brand-new neural architecture layer, GENA (Generative Execution Neural Architecture). Moving past standard AI experimentation, John emphasizes why true corporate transformation requires dedicated executive oversight, such as a Fractional Chief AI Officer, to successfully connect siloed databases, manage internal privacy permissions, and drive real-world business outcomes. Furthermore, they tackle the profound ethical realities of emerging tech, exploring why humanity's ultimate superpower remains active creation and why abdicating our stewardship to automated systems presents the ultimate existential risk to human agency.Support us through our Sponsors! ☕ Want to make content like ours?
