Podcasts about high tide

      Last we left off, the Tempests were making their way West across the Alboran Sea to get back to the continent of Drago. There waited a misplaced friend, and a couple clans of greenskins that Lakin was charged with wiping off the map. The journey was anything but smooth sailing, but in the end, it was nothing the Tempests couldn't handle! The final hurdle was making it across the wide expanse of water to get to High Tide, the pirate stronghold. Though it would seem like the request would be somewhat difficult, Kasumi requested a favor from the local thieves guild. The request was graciously granted, and the Velvet Dagger called in a favor of his own to have a ship take the Tempests and their Wagon Home to the other side of the world. Climbing aboard the Mirthless Gull, they set off for High Tide! Along the way, Pez and Lakin began working on a cursed project... Giving Cassie, their Wagon home, LEGS! Though a bit short on materials, the design was in place and progress underway.      We rejoin them now after a week of being on the water with High Tide coming into view.   We have merch! Shirts, Candles, Buttons, Stickers, and other things are for sale on our Etsy page at: https://www.etsy.com/shop/foolsandflagons    A huge shoutout to Nick Black who made our intro jingle.

The Second Emancipation: Nkrumah, Pan-Africanism, and Global Blackness at High Tide (Liveright, 2025), the second work in a trilogy from best-selling author Howard W. French about Africa's pivotal role in shaping world history, underscores Adam Hochschild's contention that French is a "modern-day Copernicus." The title--referring to a brief period beginning in 1957 when dozens of African colonies gained their freedom--positions this liberation at the center of a "movement of global Blackness," with one charismatic leader, Kwame Nkrumah (1909-1972), at its head.That so few people today know about Nkrumah is an omission that French demonstrates is "typical of our deliberate neglect of Africa's enormous role in the birth of the modern world." Determined to re-create Nkrumah's life as "an epic twentieth-century story," The Second Emancipation begins with his impoverished, unheralded birth in the far-western region of Ghana's Gold Coast. But blessed with a deep curiosity, a young Nkrumah pursued an overseas education in the United States. Nowhere is French's consummate style more vivid than in Nkrumah's early years in Depression-era America, especially in his mesmerizing portrait of a culturally effervescent Harlem that Nkrumah encountered in 1935 before heading to college. During his student years in Pennsylvania and later as an activist in London, Nkrumah became steeped in a renowned international Black intellectual milieu--including Du Bois, Garvey, Fanon, Padmore, and C.L.R. James, who called him "one of the greatest political leaders of our century"--and formed an ideology that readied him for an extraordinarily swift and peaceful rise to power upon his return to Ghana in 1947.Four years later, in a political landslide he engineered while imprisoned, Nkrumah stunned Britain by winning the first general election under universal franchise in Africa, becoming Ghana's first independent prime minister in 1957. As leader of a sovereign nation, Nkrumah wielded his influence to promote the liberation of the entire continent, pushing unity as the only pathway to recover from the damages of enslavement and subjugation. By the time national military and police forces, aided by the CIA, overthrew him in 1966, Nkrumah's radical belief in pan-African liberation had both galvanized dozens of nascent African states and fired a global agenda of Black power.In its dramatic recasting of the American civil rights story and in its tragic depiction of a continent that once exuded all the promise of a newly won freedom, The Second Emancipation becomes a generational work that positions Africa at the forefront of modern-day history. Howard W. French is a professor of journalism at Columbia University and a former New York Times bureau chief for Central America and the Caribbean, West and Central Africa, Japan and the Koreas, and China, based in Shanghai. The author of six books, including Born in Blackness, French lives in New York City. Ayisha Osori is a lawyer and Director at Open Society Foundations Ideas Workshop.

Welcome back Pauper fam! This week we invite Jake AKA Kalikaiz AKA saidenraiken on MTGO to join us once again for an end of the year review of the Pauper format, detailing the cards that stood out from each set release and how the format shifted throughout the year. From Pactdoll Terror to Cryogen Relic, the end of Broodscale and Kuldotha's reigns, plus an unbanning and reban of High Tide, there was a lot to reflect on. We're looking forward to another great year of Pauper in 2026, thank you for being along for the journey!Join our Discord! https://discord.gg/kdvSavFkpzCheck out our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@CommonGroundMTGUpcoming Pauper Events:12/20 - Upstate NY Pauper - "Pauping Off For Charity" - Holiday Edition! @ Rochester NY: https://www.spicerack.gg/events/27105571/9-1/11 - SCGCON Atlanta - Pauper $1ks on Friday @ 10am & Sunday @ 9am: https://scgcon.starcitygames.com/schedule/scg-con-atlanta-2026/The 3rd Common Ground Cup ($2k Pauper Tournament) - Saturday January 31st @ Game Knight, Columbia TN: https://topdeck.gg/event/the-3rd-common-ground-cupNashville-Area Thursday Pauper League @ Middle TN Gaming in Bellevue: https://www.facebook.com/p/Middle-Tennessee-Gaming-61567309793600/Any questions or feedback for us?

In this week's episode of High on Home Grown, we're breaking down another set of big headlines from around the world: Macky kicks things off with a massive research milestone — over 4,000 studies published this year alone, all while Trump continues to weigh his rescheduling decision. A reminder of just how fast the science is moving, even when politics drags its feet. Billy brings big news for patients in the UK, where experts have released the first comprehensive dosing guide for medical oil products. A huge step toward safer, clearer, and more consistent treatment options for people who've been left guessing for far too long. Dr. Margaret covers an international business move as Calgary-based High Tide continues its expansion into Europe, signalling another wave of global industry growth. She also dives into a charming new study showing that CBD can help aggressive dogs calm down — great news for stressed-out pups and their equally stressed-out humans. And John wraps things up with progress in Kentucky, where the state's first medical dispensary is set to open in the next couple of weeks. The governor is already touting the program as a crucial alternative in the fight against opioid addiction, which could have a major impact across the region. Another packed episode full of science, policy shifts, and global updates — plenty to think about and plenty to discuss.

Born in 1986, Chris Burkard grew up on California's Central Coast and knew from a young age that he had to get out. Photography became the avenue. Primarily self-taught, Burkard won the Follow the Light Foundation grant in 2006, and away he went, working as a senior staff photographer for Surfline, Water magazine, and Surfer magazine, as well as freelancing for The New Yorker, National Geographic, and ESPN.com. In 2009, he was contracted by Patagonia to be a projects photographer. Burkard's photo books include The California Surf Project, Come Hell or High Water: The Plight of the Torpedo People, Distant Shores, High Tide, and The Boy Who Spoke to the Earth. Along with still photographs, he makes films, including Russia: The Outpost Volume 1, Faroes: The Outpost Volume 2, The Cradle of Storms, and Under an Arctic Sky. You might glean from those titles that Burkard has a penchant for the colder locales. On that note, he started photographing Iceland about two decades ago—and fell so in love with the place that, a couple years ago, he up and moved there with his wife and two sons. Along with photography, Burkard is also an avid adventurer, recently completing a 90-mile fat-tire bike ride across Vatnajökull, Europe's largest glacier. In this episode of Soundings, Burkard talks to host Jamie Brisick about traveling, Ansel Adams, the allure of cooler climates, finding purpose, moving to Iceland, the state of surf photography, and the challenges and rewards of environmentalism. Produced by Jonathan Shifflett. Music by PazKa (Aska Matsumiya & Paz Lenchantin).

211 - Henry Paul (the Outlaws, Blackhawk) In episode 211 of “Have Guitar Will Travel”, presented by Vintage Guitar Magazine, host James Patrick Regan speaks with singer and guitarist with both Outlaws and Blackhawk, Henry Paul. In their conversation Henry discusses how he keeps the two bands material straight often touring with both band on coinciding dates. Henry takes us through his musical upbringing talking about his hero's early on and gives us insight as to what the music scene was like in Tampa in the ‘60's and early '70's having bands like Lynyrd Skynyrd and the Allman's nearby and going to see the Beatles at Shea Stadium. Henry takes us through the formation of the Outlaws and what it was like to be band with a huge hit “Green Grass and High Tides”. Henry talks about his retirement and having his son taking the band over and what it's like touring in his 70's with his son in the band. Henry discusses moving to Nashville in 1990 ahead of the masses. Henry describes his guitar travels starting at a young age playing Gibson and Martin's and eventually getting a white Gibson ES 330 like his hero Richie Furay. Henry also talks about Gurian guitars one of his favorites. Henry tells us a bit about his car collection. Henry finally tells us about his book “the Last Outlaw” that's available now and why he's written it.

Welcome to episode 217 - Highs and Lows, in this episode we will talk about how life is full of ups and downs—and I'm learning more and more that both are not only inevitable, but necessary. In this episode, I share how I've been thinking about highs and lows lately, and why the “low tide” moments in our lives are not something to rush through or judge, but to actually honor and work with. I'll take you back to a trip my family and I took to Haystack Rock on the Oregon coast, and how seeing it at both high tide and low tide became a powerful metaphor for my own life (and maybe for yours too). I'll also talk about the natural emotional waves we experience—whether we're in the middle of a mission, adjusting to life after, or supporting someone we love—and how the ebb makes the flow possible. If you've been feeling like you're in a dip, this episode is your reminder that it's part of the process, it's part of the beauty, and it often brings its own treasures if we let it. Let's walk through it together.  As always, if you found this episode helpful, I want to invite you to subscribe if you aren't already, share this episode with your friends and missionaries you know, and write a review. I know this work will help LDS missionaries around the world and it would mean so much to me if you did.

My guest on the show today is Mathieu Martin, Portfolio Manager at Rivemont MicroCap Fund. I've known Mathieu a long time, and he's a regular guest on the show. He's a generalist microcap investor who recently started exploring a sector many investors have written off entirely: Canadian cannabis. After years of avoiding the space due to its speculative excesses, Mathieu has been seeing the potential for a turnaround — with cleaner balance sheets, improving fundamentals, and profitable operators finally emerging. In this episode, we talk about what's changed in the Canadian cannabis landscape — from rationalized supply and reduced competition, to international export markets and stronger brand differentiation. Mathieu shares how he uncovered opportunities like High Tide, why some vertically integrated players like Cannara Biotech and Rubicon stand out, and how excise tax reform or expanded retail footprints could serve as powerful catalysts for the sector. We also dig into why most investors are still stuck on the legacy LPs from the 2017–2019 bubble — and what they're missing. Mathieu explains the importance of reading cash flow statements over flashy revenue growth, highlights accounting red flags, and discusses how to navigate this highly regulated, capital-intensive market with discipline. If you've written off cannabis or simply haven't revisited the Canadian names in years, this conversation might just change your mind, and for full disclosure, we discussed a number of companies on today's episode, and I'm not a shareholder in any of them.  For more information about Mathieu Martin, Rivemont MicroCap Fund and the Stocks & Stones Newsletter, please visit: https://stocksandstones.substack.com/ You can Follow Mathieu Martin on Twitter/X: @Stocks_Stones Planet MicroCap Podcast is on YouTube!
