Cecil The Lion: Trophy Kill

Minnesotan dentist Walter Palmer killed Cecil The Lion on 2nd July, 2015; ending the life of a beloved and photogenic big cat, and kickstarting his career as the internet's most vilified trophy hunter. Cecil, who lived in Zimbabwe's Hwange National Park, wasn't just any lion - he was being tracked by Oxford scientists, and was a hit with tourists, known for his majestic black mane and his chill attitude toward safari vehicles. Palmer used a bow and arrow, returning 11 hours later to finish the kill, behead him, and leave the body to rot.  The backlash was explosive. Palmer's dental office, homes, and reputation were targeted with vandalism, hate mail, and death threats; his Yelp reviews are still haunted by Cecil's ghost. While many in Africa were confused by the global outrage, Western celebrities like Jimmy Kimmel, Ricky Gervais, and Ellen turned the story into a viral cause. Palmer claimed ignorance - he didn't know Cecil was special. But critics asked: why be okay with killing a lion at all? In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly consider the ethics of big game hunting; investigate Palmer's trophy-hunting past (and present); and, ten years on from this viral moment, ask if the backlash following Cecil's death led to any positive outcomes…  Further Reading: • ‘Why Cecil the Lion Was So Popular With People' (National Geographic, 2015): https://www.nationalgeographic.com/culture/article/150730-cecil-lion-africa-hunting-science-animals • ‘Cecil the lion's legacy: five years on' (University of Oxford, 2020): https://www.ox.ac.uk/news/2020-12-21-cecil-lion-s-legacy-five-years • ‘Cecil The Lion's Death: What Really Happened Is Revealed In New Book 'Lion Hearted'' (TODAY, 2018): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vgwHH9oS3IA Love the show?

" Horror is the excitement of the unknown." It's dark all around you. You clutch your flashlight with trembling hands, but the beam of light blinds you when it hits a wall of fog. In the swirling mist ahead, eerie creatures wander the grounds between you and your goal. You must use your knowledge of the inhabitants of this place to save yourself and your friends. Welcome to Lockhill. Bill Dalitsikas, owner of Lockhill Escape Game in Athens, Greece, is the master of horror, when it comes to escape rooms. The Sanatorium premiered at the #5 spot on the TERPECA awards, and Chapel & Catacombs was voted the #1 escape room in the world in 2022. (Both games also won Golden Lock Awards.) He joins us on REPOD to talk about his inspiration, thoughts on what makes for a good horror escape room, and the Athens escape room scene. These games are massive, and it's absolutely wild that for the most part, Bill designs and builds these games all by himself. I really loved hearing him talk about using actors as puzzles in his games. It's one of the many mechanics that make his games feel like real live video games. Indeed, he was heavily inspired by Silent Hill, Mansions of Madness, and Betrayal at House on the Hill. It became very clear as we talked to Bill that his motivation isn't to scare the players as much as possible; rather it's to give the players the best experience possible. That's why he has three different game modes for The Sanatorium: Day Mode where it's less scary with more focus on the puzzles, Night Mode where the focus is on the actors and scares, and Midnight Mode where players get the best of both worlds—maximum puzzles and maximum scares. Even if you're not a fan of horror games, I think you will find this conversation compelling. Hopefully it will convince you check out the games at Lockhill next time your are near Athens.   Full Show Notes   Episode Sponsors Thank you to our sponsors: Weldwood Marketing, Buzzshot, COGS by Clockwork Dog, and Patreon supporters like you.    Weldwood Marketing Maximize your online presence with Weldwood Marketing.

" Challenging yourself is how you produce growth in your own life." Countless late nights, occasional tears, and many great conversations later, we did it. We made it to 100 episodes of REPOD! We've had so many incredible guests come on the show, fully willing to share the secret sauce to their success. These guests have been a treasure trove of creative inspiration. From discussing how to create immersive sets, to tricks for directing a player's attention, from how to effectively market your business to creating puzzles, our guests didn't gatekeep or pull their punches. To celebrate, we're taking a look back through the archives and picking some noteworthy clips. These were all things our guests said that really resonated with us – personally, professionally, or on a creative level. Each of these clips fundamentally changed how we think about something. Maybe it gave us a new perspective on leadership, like Elan Lee's clip about "other people's work." Or perhaps it was Christine Barger going against industry norms by allowing filming in her escape room. Others were more philosophical, like Alexander Gierholz's musings on the dissonance of escapism. Many of these clips helped shape the way we think about immersive design, such as Linda Klein talking about "experiential mixers" or Tommy Honton's "adrenaline map." It's been an amazing 100 episodes of Reality Escape Pod. I hope our guests have also inspired you in your creative journey. And if they did, we'd love to hear about it.

Just a point of clarification. The poll behind you, behind our ranking member, it adds up to a 110%. Just wanted to clarify, is it meant to add up to a 110%, or is that an error? Do you have a Yelp? Yeah. I do. This is from a Quinnipiac poll that was, held two weeks ago, and this is the data that was provided. There's a wealth of information, including information about Donald Trump's falling poll numbers, so you should take a look. Thanks. I yield back. The gentleman yields, and it still adds up to 110%. It still adds up to a 110%. Joining us right now is congressman William Timmons. Congressman Timmons, welcome to the program. Charlie, good afternoon. Great to be with you. That's quite essential democrat math. Yeah. You know Yeah. And they they made that poll up, and they just forgot that, you know, you you can only have a 100%. You can go a 110. Yeah. I'd I don't know about those Quinnipiac, polls there. But listen. You guys did have a have a subcommittee with Doge today, hearing today, didn't you? We did. We were, talking about how we're gonna work to make all of the Doge cuts permanent and the impact it's gonna have on long term spending. I thought it was great hearing. It went well. And and what are we looking at? Because that's been like a big sticking point with some of the Democrats. So just we did not get enough spending cuts in the big beautiful bill. Right? So we only could put spending cuts in the big beautiful bill that are allowed under both the rules of reconciliation Right. Particularly under the bird bath. So we are currently seeing the impacts of senate procedural rules. It's a it's a just a procedural mechanism to only get 50 votes 51 votes in the senate, and so we're gonna keep keep working on that. But that doesn't mean we're not gonna do everything else. We just gotta do those through rescissions packages and through government funding. So what cuts are we looking at with the DODE subcommittee? So, the one that we've already voted, the the rescissions packages was, the USAID, which is so ridiculous. It's not even funny. And the, PBS and NPR funding, which is just ridiculous. So, you know, we started there, but that doesn't mean that that's where we're gonna end. I think, you know, the the hard thing is is that we're talking to Democrats about how we're gonna fund the government going forward, and we need to fund the government because when the defense department, which has a near trillion dollar budget, operates under a continuous solution, it is extremely inefficient. So Yeah. We gotta find a way to come together to to fund the government. But they're looking at us going, well, wait. We agreed on this other spending, and you're just doing rescissions packages to stop the stuff you don't like. And my response to that is, well, you know, the people that voted for it would never have voted for it if they knew that you were gonna give, you know, hundreds of millions of dollars for, you know, these ridiculous government policies that have no positive impact on the American taxpayer. You're right about that. Now, Thune said that he's he kind of alluded to the fact that we might actually have that this bill by July 4. So the senate's supposed to vote on it this week. Thursday or Friday, the speaker said we are not leaving until it's done. Right. I love that. You know, the, this country deserves a birthday present, and we're gonna give it one. Yeah. And that would be a that would be a a great thing. But let's talk about the the big, big story. President Trump, his reactions to Iran. What are you hearing on in in Washington right now?

This week, we explore the unseen cost of inaction in retirement planning — from delaying tax planning and staying trapped in growth investments (rather than shifting to income investments), to hoping the market simply rebounds.  With interest rates expected to drop later this year and tax laws set to evolve — such as potential extensions of tax cuts and raised standard deductions for seniors — clinging to outdated assumptions can quietly erode your nest egg.  Learn why the time to act is now: expert tax preparation, timely portfolio rebalancing, and shifting from accumulation to income strategies can make a significant difference. Inaction, especially in today's economic environment, is the real retirement risk.

From launching Evolve Gym in 2011 to adopting biohacking protocols in his 40s, Brad walks listeners through the most impactful strategies that helped him stay lean, healthy, and mentally sharp—especially after turning 40.Circuit Training: His gyms focused on circuit-style workouts—mixing strength and cardio—which kept clients (and himself) lean and athletic with efficient time use.Time Under Tension (TUT): Inspired by SmartFi Method, Brad discovered that slowing exercises down for muscle tension was just as effective as heavy lifting with less joint strain."Less is More" Approach: He now trains smarter—not harder—by focusing on minimal effective doses of exercise that reduce injury risk and improve recovery.Keto & Low-Carb Paleo: After testing all major diets, keto gave him the best results for mental clarity, fat loss, and managing depression—especially through insulin control.Intermittent & Extended Fasting: Combining low-carb with intermittent fasting (and 36-hour fasts monthly) led to dramatic improvements in blood markers, insulin sensitivity, and visceral fat reduction.Liver Health: After a naturopathic consultation, Brad targeted liver repair with Pure Health supplements, which reversed signs of liver stress and flattened his stubborn upper belly fat.SmartFi Machines: Used AI-powered resistance equipment to measure performance and discovered he could achieve major gains with just 1–2 intense workouts weekly.Supplements That Worked:Magnesium Breakthrough (BioOptimizers): The only supplement that significantly lowered his high blood pressure.Lifewave Patches: Helped heal a SLAP tear in his shoulder and improved his glutathione levels, boosting energy and recovery.Tiny Health Gut Testing: Revealed and helped resolve gut imbalances and food sensitivities like gluten and eggs, reducing inflammation and digestive issues.Brad highlights his free SKOOL community for people over 40, offering personal training advice, Q&As, and collaboration with health experts.

"It's the first science-based escape room." If you ask an escape room enthusiast about entanglement puzzles, what likely springs to mind are those intertwined, bent metal nails that you need to separate. However, for Paul Kwiat, an entanglement puzzle is something else completely. Professor Kwiat is an acclaimed physicist, specializing in quantum physics, including quantum entanglement, along with quantum cryptography, dense-coding, quantum teleportation, entanglement distillation, and most recently, optical quantum gates. Phew! But what's a physicist doing on REPOD? Besides his many other accomplishments, Professor Kwiat has also created LabEscape, the first science-based escape room. Most of the puzzles in his games are built on different science phenomena such as magnetism, thermodynamics, and polarization. Many of these are rather advanced principles that would be taught at a college-level course. These are not games for kids! Professor Kwiat explains that he had three goals when creating his escape room. One—to show that science can be both relevant and accessible. Two—to show that these scientific effects are aesthetically beautiful. Three—that science is fun! His love of science and physics is certainly infectious. We couldn't resist the opportunity to chat about quantum mechanics, including quantum computers, and cryptography. I truly appreciated that he took the time to explain all these principles to us, even if it meant crushing my romantic notions of how quantum entanglement works. This episode is a bit different, but I think you'll certainly learn something.   Episode Sponsors Thank you to our sponsors: Weldwood Marketing, Buzzshot, COGS by Clockwork Dog, and Patreon supporters like you.    Weldwood Marketing Maximize your online presence with Weldwood Marketing.

Duane Nutter spent his first seven years or so in Morgan City, Louisiana, but his mother later moved the family to Seattle in search of schools that could help with his dyslexia. Their new home exposed Duane to a world of international flavors, but his mother never lost her love for Southern food, even going so far as to ship in certain spices and ingredients like andouille sausage at a time when that wasn't easy to do. As a result, Duane developed a taste for cooking that straddled different worlds. After some stints in a few Seattle restaurants, he eventually moved to Atlanta to work with the legendary Chef Darryl Evans at the Four Seasons Hotel, and he then accepted a position as Executive Chef at One Flew South, an oasis of quality dining for travelers passing through the Atlanta Airport. His latest restaurant, Southern National, was recognized by Yelp! in 2024 as one of the best new restaurants in the South, and now he's got a new cookbook called Cutting Up in the Kitchen. Sid talks to Duane about his double life as a comedian, what it was like serving Maya Angelou, and why it took so long to get his citrus pound cake just exactly right.

"It was like a laser tag basement with Party City decorations." Escape rooms? What are those? Well, it says here that you're locked in a room, and if you can't solve the puzzles fast enough, a zombie will get you! According to Trip Advisor, it's the top rated activity in the city. The year is 2014. Amanda Harris has just discovered her first escape room... and her life was changed forever. Since that fateful day, she has gone on to play well over 1,700 escape rooms. She is currently one of the most experienced escape room players in the country, if not the world. Amanda joins us to talk about the escape room era of yore, when most rooms were festooned with cheap locks and even cheaper furniture. The puzzles were mostly bad, and many of the games were created and run by slightly sadistic gamemasters who guarded hints like dragons sitting on their hoards. Yet she played game after game after game. Despite how terrible many of the early escape rooms were, she still loved them, and played as many as she could find. Indeed, even finding the games themselves was a challenge back then, let alone finding the gems. Those few gems, however, were absolutely incredible. That's a large part of the reason why David and Lisa created Room Escape Artist all those years ago. Tune in to this episode to hear David and Amanda reminisce about the bad old days and trade war stories about "the early days of  completely bananas, insane escape rooms."     Episode Sponsors Thank you to our sponsors: Weldwood Marketing, Buzzshot, COGS by Clockwork Dog, and Patreon supporters like you.    Weldwood Marketing Maximize your online presence with Weldwood Marketing.

When Nissim Lehyani (VP of Product at Life360) used AI to build a math game for his son, he didn't just prototype a game, he rewired how he thinks about product development and the relationship between engineering, product, and design. In this episode, Nissim shares how that personal “aha” moment sparked a shift in how his teams build, collaborate, and ship. We dive into how AI is accelerating product iteration from months to hours, why it's time to drop the “M” from MVP, and how prototypes are replacing PRDs as the central artifact of product work. Plus how product rituals and building cadence are evolving, strategies for scaling a prototype-first workflow, and we deconstruct the “lightning pod” model and how it's changing the dynamics of product building & EPD collaboration. Have any AI passion projects that you'd like to share?

Together, they explore the world of peptides, discussing what they are, how they work, and why they could be the missing link in your weight loss, recovery, and longevity game over 40.What Are Peptides?Chains of amino acids that act as messengers in the body.Your body naturally produces peptides—like insulin—but modern science can now identify and supplement bioactive peptides (those that signal specific biological functions like fat burning, energy production, and muscle growth).Why Peptides Matter Over 40As we age, the body's ability to produce essential peptides and perform key functions (e.g., metabolism, muscle repair, liver detox) declines.Supplementing smartly with targeted peptides could help fill in these performance and health gaps.Michelle's Personal ExperienceMichelle shares her extremely low leptin levels (a hormone responsible for satiety), validating her lifelong struggle with constant hunger—despite following a clean, high-protein lifestyle.Using peptide-based supplements (specifically from a company called Make Wellness), she reports improved appetite regulation, fat loss, energy, and recovery, especially from their Fit and Lean products.Make Wellness & AI-Powered PeptidesMake Wellness formulates AI-driven, plant-based peptide supplements.Their unique delivery matrix helps peptides survive digestion and reach target systems (e.g., muscle, metabolism, brain).If you're interested in online personal training or being a guest on my podcast, "Over 40 Fitness Hacks," you can reach me at brad@over40fitnesshacks.com or visit my website at:www.Over40FitnessHacks.comAdditionally, check out my Yelp reviews for my local business, Evolve Gym in Huntington Beach, at https://bit.ly/3GCKRzV
