A physicist invents a machine capable of doing the impossible – and makes the mistake of showing it to a Hollywood mogul who immediately sees dollar signs. What begins as a scientific breakthrough soon becomes an experiment neither man can quite control. A man has to have a place to confess a horrible sin … and this is as good as any other!EPISODE BLOG PAGE (includes sources): https://weirddarkness.com/DontShootSOURCES and RESOURCES: “Don't Shoot” by Robert Zacks (Galaxy Science Fiction, April 1955)WeirdDarkness® is a registered trademark.

As Nepal deals with the aftermath of devastating floods, there have been renewed warnings about the impact of climate change on the Himalayas. As temperatures have risen, glaciers across the region have shrunk and the landscape has become more unstable. Antonia Bolingbroke-Kent reports from one remote Nepalese mountain community that faces an existential threat from a melting glacier. The ancient village of Halji, near the Tibetan border, is home to a thousand year-old Buddhist monastery, one of the oldest in Nepal. But high above the village, meltwater has created glacial lakes . In 2011, parts of the village were destroyed when a glacial lake burst and sent a torrent of water and rocks down the valley. Other communities in the area have abandoned their homes, yet here villagers remain. So why are they determined to stay?

Over the last 10 years, Dr Jane Orton has visited the remote Spiti Valley in the Himalayas to speak to the local Bhoti people about their lore and spiritual beliefs. In the many villages across the valley, stories about the deities are consistent from place to place but also transfigured. She hears about deities like Lhas, powerful beings that have been incorporated into Buddhism. Lhas serve many purposes from protection and curing illnesses to ensuring water security by bringing snow. Jane hears about Biyuls – hidden lands – where people are like those of Spiti valley, except they have no salt and only certain people can see and hear them. And she chases stories of the figure of Balu Thukangbu, a wish granting entity. Spiti Valley is rapidly changing, but its hidden deities remain a part of the spiritual life of the region.

SHOW NOTES — Varanasi and Dharamshala: India's Two Spiritual WorldsEpisode SummaryIn this episode, Max joins John Wright, a travel writer from Seattle, who travels through two of India's most powerful spiritual centers. Varanasi, a city that overwhelms every sense, and Dharamshala, a peaceful Himalayan refuge shaped by the Dalai Lama's presence. They share a spiritual reputation, but the experience of each place feels like stepping into opposite worlds.VaranasiVaranasi hits travelers with full force the moment they arrive. The Ghats along the Ganges are a nonstop procession of pilgrims bathing, priests chanting, and funeral pyres burning day and night. The air is thick with smoke, incense, and the scent of the river. Narrow alleys twist between temples, cows, vendors, and crowds moving in every direction at once. John describes Varanasi as a place where sanctity and spectacle collide. Anyone can declare himself a holy man and find followers. Tuk-tuks weave through traffic like bumper cars without the crashes. It is exhausting, unforgettable, and unlike anywhere else on Earth.A short ride away, Sarnath offers a rare pocket of calm. This is where Buddha delivered his first sermon, and the gardens and monuments feel worlds away from Varanasi's intensity.DharamshalaFlying into Dharamshala feels like entering a different India entirely. The Himalayas rise in front of you, and the air is crisp and clean. In McLeod Ganj, red-robed monks walk between monasteries, prayer flags flutter, and the pace of life slows to a gentle rhythm. Portraits of the Dalai Lama hang in shops and cafés, not as decoration but as expressions of genuine affection. Locals describe him as compassionate and authentic, and his presence shapes the entire community. Even the monkeys seem to have their own personalities, swinging across wires and lounging in the sun.The Dalai Lama's temple is simple on the outside but beautifully decorated inside. Visitors sit quietly, many in traditional Tibetan dress, absorbed in prayer and reflection.The ContrastVaranasi is loud, raw, and overwhelming. Dharamshala is calm, reflective, and shaped by mountain silence. One city feels like a spiritual circus; the other feels like a sanctuary. Both reveal different sides of India's spiritual identity.Other Pilgrimage Stops MentionedMathura, birthplace of Krishna, filled with peaceful temples and prayerful devotees. Amritsar, home of the Golden Temple, one of India's most welcoming sacred spaces.Travel TipAll temples in India require visitors to remove shoes and socks. Sandals make life easier.Call to ActionIf you enjoyed this journey through India's spiritual contrasts, subscribe to the GoNOMAD Travel Podcast on Apple Podcasts and never miss an episode.

In this episode, we listen to a man’s passionate command, as portrayed in Sangam Literary work, Aganaanooru 334, penned by Madurai Koothanaar. The verse is situated amidst the showering rainclouds of the ‘Mullai’ or ‘Forest Landscape’ and resounds with the yearning to be back home. ஓடா நல் ஏற்று உரிவை தைஇயஆடு கொள் முரசம் இழுமென முழங்க,நாடு திறை கொண்டனம்ஆயின் பாக!பாடு இமிழ் கடலின் எழுந்த சும்மையொடுபெருங் களிற்றுத் தடக் கை புரையக் கால் வீழ்த்து,இரும் பிடித் தொழுதியின் ஈண்டுவன குழீஇ,வணங்கு இறை மகளிர் அயர்ந்தனர் ஆடும்கழங்கு உறழ் ஆலியொடு கதழ் உறை சிதறி,பெயல் தொடங்கின்றால், வானம்; வானின்வயங்கு சிறை அன்னத்து நிரை பறை கடுப்ப,நால்கு உடன் பூண்ட கால் நவில் புரவிக்கொடிஞ்சி நெடுந் தேர் கடும் பரி தவிராது,இன மயில் அகவும் கார் கொள் வியன் புனத்து,நோன் சூட்டு ஆழி ஈர் நிலம் துமிப்ப,ஈண்டே காணக் கடவுமதி பூங் கேழ்ப்பொலிவன அமர்த்த உண்கண்,ஒலி பல் கூந்தல் ஆய் சிறு நுதலே! In this trip to the lush forests, we get to see the weather in action, as we listen to the man say these words to his charioteer, when he’s returning home after a mission of war: “As the victorious drum, woven with the skin of a handsome bull that retreats not, roars like thunder, we have claimed tributes of subdued nations, O charioteer! Soaring with the bundle gathered from the singing seas, appearing like a huddle of dark female elephants, sending down cloudbursts, akin to trunks of huge male elephants, and scattering hailstones, akin to ‘kazhangu' beans that maiden with curving wrists play and delight in, along with thick rain, the sky has begun its downpour; Akin to the flight of an ordered row of swans, with radiant feathers, flying in that sky, let the four yoked, wind-like horses tied to the decorated tall chariot, speed on, without any pause, such that the sharp edges of the wheels split apart the moist earth of this wide, rain-soaked forest, filled with calls of peacocks. Ride on so that I get to see right away my beloved's flower-like, radiant, well-set, kohl-streaked eyes, thick and luxuriant tresses and that beautiful, little forehead!” Time to trot along the speeding chariot and listen to the man’s heartbeat! The man starts by talking about his successful mission, winning the war, and he does this by mentioning how the war drum had pronounced the victory and that they had received the offerings of conquered enemies. A nuance to be noted about the drum is in how it’s described as being made with the skin of a brave bull that does not know the meaning of retreating. This tells us much meaning was seen even in the choice of leather for a king’s war drum. When we head back, we see that the man has turned his focus from their past events to the present and points to how the clouds have gathered, looking like a herd of female elephants, and how these send down bursts of rain, akin to a male elephant’s trunk. There’s also mention of hailstones, which are compared to ‘molucca beans’ that young maiden love to play with. In short, the rains have begun! The man now issues the command to his charioteer to make the four horses tied to their chariot to fly like the neatly ordered row of swans that fly on and on, without needing a break. Though the man uses the word ‘Annam’, which is associated with ‘swan’ in contemporary Tamil, probably he’s referring to the ‘Bar-headed geese’, known to fly ceaselessly and even sighted crossing the tallest peaks of the Himalayas. Also, in this verse, we find out the number of horses that were usually tied to a chariot in those times, and in this particular case, those four happen to be a dazzling white! Returning, the man explains that he has asked his charioteer to wield the chariot so speedily, splitting the wet earth as its zooms past the rain-clothed forest, filled with the sounds of peacocks calling to their mates, because he wishes to relish the beautiful eyes, tresses and forehead of the lady, as soon as possible! In essence, the verse has that simple core of ‘Speed on the horses, my man’ and yet shines within the complex emotions of both the anxiety and anticipation in a homecoming!

The Western Ghats in India is a mountain range that is considered next only to the Himalayas in terms of being a biological treasure trove with a high degree of endemism and scenic beauty. It has also been declared as one of the world's hotspots of biodiversity. However, in recent times, it has been in the news for threats to its unique ecosystem, especially with every episode of an ecological disaster. Yet, every attempt that has proposed to address these problems - be it the Gadgil committee report or the Kasturirangan report - has met with opposition. The latest in this list is the draft notification issued by the Centre proposing the Eco-Sensitive Area (ESA) that would cover a 20,668 square kilometre area spread across 1,449 villages in Karnataka, which has been vehemently opposed by the Karnataka government. In the first of this two-part podcast, AS Ponnanna, Political Secretary to the Chief Minister of Karnataka and MLA from Virajpet in Kodagu, nestled in the Western Ghats, talks about the concerns the Karnataka government has with the Kasturirangan report and the Centre's latest draft notification. In Part 2, we will have TV Ramachandra from the Centre for Ecological Sciences, IISc, who was also the local expert who gave his inputs to the Kasturirangan committee. Host: K C Deepika.

She is the author of Within My Spokes, a collection of brave stories of resilience including her own memoir. She is a disability advocate and accessibility educator. Jenna began life as an active and athletic little girl. Typical of midwestern families, she kept busy with her family by hiking trails and rock hounding the shores of Lake Superior. Until at age 7 a bad fall while ice skating dramatically changed their lives overnight. A series of Doctor appointments and medical testing led to a diagnosis of Juvenile Arthritis. It was then that Jenna learned to speak up for herself and become her own advocate, educating her classmates about her condition. Jenna became a music teacher and has since won The Bush Fellow Award and dedicated her life and focus to advocate for structural changes to be more inclusive for people with physical challenges. She shares her perspective by writing a column in her hometown paper. Watch or listen to the show to be encouraged to create a ripple effect in your community by sharing your story of resilience.

Survivors of the floods in Nepal share their experiences of escape from the torrent of water that swept through valleys in the Himalayas, killing at least 1.300 people. “For me that river valley was where I built my dreams,” Gaurav, who owned a café tells us. “Within a few minutes we lost everything, everything was swept away.” Gaurav is joined in conversation by his friend Sakil, who lost his family home in the floods. Extraordinary pictures of the first people to be rescued after nine days have been shared with the world. They were trapped in a hydro-electric power station tunnel with many others. But thousands, including foreign nationals from India, the UK, Australia and the US, are still missing. We bring together two families, hoping their loved ones will be found.

How did India stay protected yet remain connected to the world? In this episode, we explore the geography of the Indian subcontinent—natural barriers like the Himalayas and Thar Desert, the Khyber Pass as a gateway, the Western and Eastern coasts, and the monsoon system that shaped trade, travel, and history. From internal regions like the Indo-Gangetic plains and Deccan plateau to global connections with Central Asia and Southeast Asia, this is how India's landscape influenced movement, exchange, and civilisation.Contact, follow and support my work - all in one place: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/NamaskarIndia⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠UPI ID: 9893547492@ptaxisTopic: Indian Geography

The C-47 Dakota, or Skytrain as it was known in American service, was one of the most important aircraft of the Second World War. It carried paratroopers into battle, towed gliders packed with men and equipment, flew vital supplies to surrounded troops, and crossed some of the most inhospitable terrain on Earth. Yet the crews who flew these missions are often overshadowed by the fighter aces and bomber crews. Their job demanded a different kind of courage. Flying unarmed, often at low level and in tight formation, they were expected to stay on course, arrive on time and, even under heavy fire, resist the instinct to take evasive action. Whether over Normandy, Arnhem, Bastogne or the Himalayas, they played a vital role in Allied victory. Joining me today is Scott McGaugh, author of 'Into the Firestorm: The Allied Heroes Who Flew World War II's Most Daring Missions', to tell the story of the transport pilots who flew these extraordinary missions.

President Trump has announced a historic oil deal with Venezuela which grants the U.S. access to billions of barrels in proven reserves. FOX Business Network Contributor and Oil Market Analyst at the Price Futures Group Phil Flynn joins the Rundown to explain why the agreement could be a "generational game changer" for the nation's energy security, how it impacts the U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve, the immediate impact on pump prices and why a "new era of low prices" is on the horizon. After devastating flooding and mudslides swept through the mountainous Nepal-China border, hundreds are dead and thousands remain missing, including dozens of Americans. As rescue crews work to reach isolated communities in the Himalayas and families search for loved ones, questions remain about what caused the catastrophic landslide and debris flow. Philip Prince, geologist with Appalachian Landslide Consultants and adjunct professor at Virginia Tech, joins the Rundown to explain what may have triggered the disaster and if early warnings can be provided in the future to populations at risk.

Misha Glenny delves in to the In Our Time archive to select ten episodes for listeners to revisit. His fourth choice, first released in January 2008, explores how the science of plate tectonics revolutionised our understanding of the planet on which we live. America is getting further away from Europe. This is not a political statement but a geological fact. Just as the Pacific is getting smaller, the Red Sea bigger, the Himalayas are still going up and one day the Horn of Africa will be a large island. This is the theory of plate tectonics, a revolutionary idea in 20th century geology that claimed the continents of Earth were dancing to the music of deep time. A dance of incredible slowness, yet powerful enough to throw up the mountains and pour away the oceans. Plate tectonics, the idea that the earth's surface moved on a carpet of molten magma, constituted a genuine scientific revolution in geology. It explained why mountains appeared and why earthquakes occurred; it explained the curious distribution of fossils across the globe and finally solved the age old conundrum of why continents such as Africa and South America appeared to fit together like a giant jigsaw puzzle. Plate tectonics has made geologists, and many more besides, profoundly re-think what the Earth was, how it worked and how it related to all the things in it.

More than 165 people are dead and as many as 1,500 are unaccounted for following catastrophic floods devastating towns and valleys along the Nepal-Tibet border.
