    #402 In this episode, Guy introduced returning guest Katie Sutton and framed 2026 as an intense period of energetic change, comparing it to riding a wave and sharing a personal story about cycling Bolivia's "Road of Death" and his own recent ancestral trauma release. Katie says the year marks a collective transition out of centuries of oppression and separation, with people pushed to claim authentic expression, process shadow, and navigate collapsing systems while holding both personal and collective intensity. She described the Fire Horse year beginning February 17, noting early months focus on shedding and integration alongside a solar eclipse, a lunar eclipse two weeks later, and a Mercury retrograde, with more visible new beginnings arriving in March and April. They discussed practical ways to avoid victimhood and burnout by slowing down, using micro-moments to feel and release triggers, prioritizing nervous-system regulation and solitude, and embracing joy alongside grief, while emphasizing co-creation with others and the earth. Katie explained her relationship with spiritual guides and earth energies, recounts a transformative Glastonbury pilgrimage experience and preparation practices, and closes by encouraging listeners to take good care of themselves through the year's "high highs and low lows," connect with her through Zen Within Academy, and consider retreats and workshops in places like Glastonbury and Charlotte, North Carolina. About Katie: Katie Sutton based in Charlotte, NC is an intuitive channel, vibrational energy healer and wayshower who supports you on your personal path to wholeness and fulfillment which is manifested by living as your authentic self.  During her individual healing sessions, workshops, speaking engagements, retreats and online programs and events, she intuitively crafts an alchemy of meditation, breath work, energy medicine and channeled teachings from her guides and higher self to awaken unity consciousness and deep healing for her clients and students.  With a warm and compassionate approach, Katie has helped countless individuals overcome their challenges and find greater peace, joy, and fulfillment in their lives.

    Cities and Memory - remixing the sounds of the world

    Airwaves Unfolded is a piece based on a radio recording produced in the 1960s in Tarija, southern Bolivia, by Radio Universidad de Tarija. The program introduces Indigenous instruments and discusses how they have been intertwined with labour, daily life, and ritual, as well as how new instruments and musical forms developed after Spanish influence.What drew me to this recording were the instruments' unstable yet resonant tones alongside the narrator's voice. The voice carries a sense of responsibility, warmth, and quiet pride, reflecting an intention to preserve cultural knowledge and pass it on to future generations. Although the broadcast was created for its own present moment, it now reaches us as a fragment of cultural memory. I approached the recording not as a fixed historical document, but as material whose meaning can continue to shift over time.In the process of making the piece, I extracted short fragments of narration and placed them alongside the instrumental sounds to explore new relationships between them. Heavy processing was avoided, with an emphasis on preserving the instruments' resonance, pitch fluctuations, and texture as they appear in the original recording.The piano serves as a primary, foregrounded presence throughout the piece, while its recording captures the room's resonance and ambient qualities as a field-recorded sound. The piano is played using scales and harmonies chosen to closely complement the original sounds, acting as a quiet foundation for the piece. The original radio programme fragments are placed within this piano texture, allowing the voices of the past and the present performance to intertwine gently.During the production process, I also researched the instruments featured in the programme and their historical and social contexts. While engaging with a field recording from a culture different from my own, I continued to reflect on what I am actually hearing and what I may be imagining. Airwaves Unfolded takes shape as a space in which voices from the past gently touch the present.Bolivian radio programme on folk music reimagined by Masako Yokouchi (Sonotant).———Part of the project A Century of Sounds, reimagining 100 sounds covering 100 years from the collections of the Pitt Rivers Museum at the University of Oxford.

    Interview with Arturo Préstamo Elizondo, Executive Chairman & CEO of Santacruz Silver Mining Ltd.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/santacruz-silver-tsxvscz-strong-cash-generation-funds-debt-free-growth-8019Recording date: 13th February 2026Santacruz Silver Mining (TSXV:SCZ) represents a transformed investment opportunity following the elimination of all debt obligations and completion of its NASDAQ listing in January 2026. The multi-metal producer operates four mines across Bolivia and Mexico, generating substantial cash flows with an $80 million treasury position after paying $70 million in Glencore obligations and tax liabilities during 2025.The company's debt-free, streaming-free, royalty-free capital structure directs 100% of operational cash flows to equity holders during a period of elevated silver and zinc prices. This clean balance sheet distinguishes Santacruz from leveraged competitors and producers with streaming obligations that divert metal production at below-market prices, creating immediate margin expansion as commodity prices strengthen.Management projects 5-7% production growth from operational efficiencies independent of metal price assumptions or acquisition execution. The Zimapan mine in Mexico delivered a $2.5 million investment in flotation cell circuits that improved silver recoveries by 500 basis points, generating approximately $5 million in incremental monthly cash flow—a 20-month payback demonstrating disciplined capital allocation. The mine's advancement to Level 960 encounters wider ore bodies with silver grades of 80-90 grams per tonne and zinc content of 2.5-3.5% across the 2,800-tonne-per-day operation.In Bolivia, the Bolivar mine is recovering from 2025 flooding through systematic dewatering infrastructure that increased capacity to over 700 litres per second—five times pre-flooding levels and nearly double peak flood conditions. Fourth quarter 2025 production showed quarter-over-quarter silver increases as access to flooded veins improves, whilst development work necessitated by the flooding discovered new high-grade veins creating unanticipated exploration upside.Near-term production catalysts include the Soracaya project targeting full permitting by June-July 2026 with production commencement in the fourth quarter, utilizing existing Bolivian milling infrastructure for low-capital-intensity cash flow generation. The Esperanza mine at the Caballo Blanco complex approaches commercial production as the third operating mine within that group, leveraging existing infrastructure for brownfield expansion.The Bolivian operating environment transformed following the 2025 election of President Rodrigo Paz, whose administration declared mining a strategic industry and announced constitutional reforms to encourage foreign investment. As Bolivia's largest underground mining company, Santacruz occupies a prominent position during this regulatory evolution, with improved political conditions creating potential M&A opportunities whilst reducing political risk for existing operations.The January 2026 NASDAQ listing provides strategic access to US institutional investors and family offices, expanding the investor base beyond Canadian venture shareholders whilst early trading data demonstrates volume improvements. US institutional capital historically applies higher valuation multiples to Latin American precious metals producers than Canadian venture markets alone.Management employs a distinctive operational approach tracking per-tonne costs rather than conventional all-in sustaining cost metrics, maintaining five-year rolling budgets with detailed weekly mining plans to prevent short-term high-grading that compromises long-term mine life. This disciplined capital allocation framework, combined with direct executive operational involvement demonstrated through systematic site visits and hands-on crisis management during the Bolivar flooding, distinguishes the approach from volume-focused competitors.For investors seeking exposure to silver and base metals through an established producer with near-term growth catalysts, operational leverage to metallurgical improvements, and exposure to transformative Bolivian political changes, Santacruz presents a differentiated opportunity with multiple risk mitigation factors relative to earlier-stage developers or debt-burdened producers.View Santacruz Silver's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/santacruz-silver-miningSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

    El Gobierno boliviano anunció la creación de una comisión especial para combatir la impunidad en delitos sexuales. Entre ellos, los casos vinculados a la Iglesia Católica. Con la misión de revisar denuncias, analizar expedientes y colaborar con el Ministerio Público en investigaciones referidas a abusos contra menores, incluso aquellos que hayan prescrito o que no hayan avanzado ante la justicia, el Gobierno de Rodrigo Paz anunció la creación de una comisión para combatir la impunidad en abusos sexuales. “Hemos creado esta comisión mixta, en el sentido de que no vamos a generar un doble juzgamiento, sino que vamos a fiscalizar con las atribuciones constitucionales que tiene la Asamblea, departamento por departamento, ciudad por ciudad, contando con el apoyo de muchos abogados que existen y están registrados en el Registro Público de la Abogacía acá en Bolivia”, explicó a RFI Manolo Rojas, diputado del el Partido Demócrata Cristiano (PDC), partido vencedor en las urnas hace tres meses. “Y vamos a ver el tema netamente técnico. Si han habido inconsistencias en algunos casos, seguramente encontraremos también corrupción, con la única finalidad de elaborar un informe, porque este informe nos va a servir como piedra fundamental para abrir la Constitución Política del Estado, generar el debate para ingresar a una cadena perpetua sobre los violadores de niños y niñas y los infanticidas”, precisó. Escuchar a las víctimas Entre tanto, la Comunidad Boliviana de Sobrevivientes (CBS), organización de víctimas de abusos eclesiales que denunció en los tribunales los casos cometidos por la Compañía de Jesús boliviana, se muestra muy prudente ante la futura gestión de esta comisión creada por el Gobierno, luego de haberse quedado al margen tras no contar con el testimonio de sus víctimas. “Nosotros valoramos ese intento, pero lo que sí cuestionamos y vemos con mucha pena es que la Compañía de Jesús quiere invisibilizar a la organización existente. Una comisión de la verdad debería constituirse con las víctimas. Nosotros pacientemente vamos a esperar. Esperemos que ellos de su propia voluntad se comuniquen con nosotros para que podamos trabajar juntos. Nosotros por nuestro lado estamos trabajando”, nos comentó su presidente Wilder Flores. RFI preguntó directamente al diputado Manolo Rojas si la Comunidad Boliviana de Sobrevivientes será escuchada y aportará ayuda en esta comisión contra la impunidad: “Va a ser parte importante. Lo primero es generar el aspecto técnico jurídico, y posteriormente vamos a tener unas reuniones donde vamos a escuchar las experiencias y vamos a hacer un realce sobre las causas o los motivos de por qué no han podido acceder a justicia”, aseguró. El trabajo de la comisión comenzará en marzo e incluirá la habilitación de una oficina para que los interesados puedan denunciar los casos en los que hubo impunidad o falta de celeridad por parte de la justicia.

Con la misión de revisar denuncias, analizar expedientes y colaborar con el Ministerio Público en investigaciones referidas a abusos contra menores, incluso aquellos que hayan prescrito o que no hayan avanzado ante la justicia, el Gobierno de Rodrigo Paz anunció la creación de una comisión para combatir la impunidad en abusos sexuales. “Hemos creado esta comisión mixta, en el sentido de que no vamos a generar un doble juzgamiento, sino que vamos a fiscalizar con las atribuciones constitucionales que tiene la Asamblea, departamento por departamento, ciudad por ciudad, contando con el apoyo de muchos abogados que existen y están registrados en el Registro Público de la Abogacía acá en Bolivia”, explicó a RFI Manolo Rojas, diputado del el Partido Demócrata Cristiano (PDC), partido vencedor en las urnas hace tres meses. “Y vamos a ver el tema netamente técnico. Si han habido inconsistencias en algunos casos, seguramente encontraremos también corrupción, con la única finalidad de elaborar un informe, porque este informe nos va a servir como piedra fundamental para abrir la Constitución Política del Estado, generar el debate para ingresar a una cadena perpetua sobre los violadores de niños y niñas y los infanticidas”, precisó. Escuchar a las víctimas Entre tanto, la Comunidad Boliviana de Sobrevivientes (CBS), organización de víctimas de abusos eclesiales que denunció en los tribunales los casos cometidos por la Compañía de Jesús boliviana, se muestra muy prudente ante la futura gestión de esta comisión creada por el Gobierno, luego de haberse quedado al margen tras no contar con el testimonio de sus víctimas. “Nosotros valoramos ese intento, pero lo que sí cuestionamos y vemos con mucha pena es que la Compañía de Jesús quiere invisibilizar a la organización existente. Una comisión de la verdad debería constituirse con las víctimas. Nosotros pacientemente vamos a esperar. Esperemos que ellos de su propia voluntad se comuniquen con nosotros para que podamos trabajar juntos. Nosotros por nuestro lado estamos trabajando”, nos comentó su presidente Wilder Flores. RFI preguntó directamente al diputado Manolo Rojas si la Comunidad Boliviana de Sobrevivientes será escuchada y aportará ayuda en esta comisión contra la impunidad: “Va a ser parte importante. Lo primero es generar el aspecto técnico jurídico, y posteriormente vamos a tener unas reuniones donde vamos a escuchar las experiencias y vamos a hacer un realce sobre las causas o los motivos de por qué no han podido acceder a justicia”, aseguró. El trabajo de la comisión comenzará en marzo e incluirá la habilitación de una oficina para que los interesados puedan denunciar los casos en los que hubo impunidad o falta de celeridad por parte de la justicia.

    This is Episode 2 of our sub-series "Environmental Issues along the Belt and Road."The series considers the complexities of Chinese actors' impacts on the environment, extractive activities, and role in driving sustainability solutions from the sands of the Mekong River to lithium mines in Argentina. Since 2012, China has invested roughly US$4 billion in 12 nickel projects across Southeast Asia, with a major focus on Indonesia, which supplies 16% of global nickel production. In South America, Chile, Bolivia, and Argentina— known as the Lithium Triangle—together hold over 54% of the world's lithium reserves beneath their salt flats as of 2024, and China is the only country to have signed agreements with all three. In this episode, we explore what makes minerals “critical” to the energy transition, how China's long-term industrial strategy and geopolitical struggles has (re)shaped global critical mineral supply chains, and, through cases of Indonesian nickel and lithium in Argentina, how stakeholders in producer countries navigate trade-offs between economic development, sovereignty, & environmental and social impacts.We interview 4 experts: Dr. Jing Li is a professor at Simon Fraser University's Beedie School of Business and holds the Canada Research Chair in Global Investment Strategy. She also serves as the Co-Director of the Jack Austin Center for Asia Pacific Business Studies.

    Tim Shearcroft,  CEO and Co-Founder of BP Silver Corp. (TSXV: BPAG), joins me for a review of the results from the first two drill holes of its initial eleven-hole Phase I drill program at the Cosuño Silver Project, located in the prolific Bolivian silver belt. Additionally, the Company is working on finalizing the title at their Titiri Project, located in a major under-explored silver belt with Tier 1 discovery potential.   The Phase I drill program tested four initial targets in the southern portion of Cosuño, selected as initial targets because they were outcropping, in an area that is covered by surficial overburden.  Drill Holes CO-0001 and CO-0002 were drilled in the Jalsuri target, a northwest-southeast trending ridge formed by a prominent mineralized structure.  These results validated that the lithocap at Cosuño is mineralized with precious metals and base metals.   CO-0001 intercepted 62 meters of 56.96 silver equivalent (AgEq), including 29 meters of 80 AgEq, and 4 meters of 150 AgEq CO-0002 intercepted 33 meters of 62.86 silver equivalent (AgEq), including 3 meters of 124.95 AgEq   The remaining 9 holes from Phase I will have more holes returned from the Jalsuri, Benhur, Pocalleta, and Pocañita Chica target areas.   We also discussed the potential for future drilling at the other portion of Jalsuri, and the Pocañita Grande targets.   We discuss the prospectivity of Bolivia for mineral exploration and exploitation, the handful of companies that have made solid advancements on their projects in country, and how the political administration has recently changed to become more amenable to foreign business investment and mineral extraction.   Additionally, their team is working with the government to finalize obtaining the title to begin exploration on their Titiri Project.   Titiri was staked over a large land concession containing outcropping mineralization historically explored by ASARCO.  This Project contains a 2.5km-long silver-lead-zinc zone, with excellent historical trench results, that was never drilled. Titiri is a very High Priority structural setting at the intersection of several major crustal-scale faults, along which multiple deposits occur.  There is a MOU in place with local communities, and they'd like to get on the ground for exploration in mid-2026.     If you have any questions for Tim regarding BP Silver, then please email those into me at Shad@kereport.com.   Click here to follow the latest news from BP Silver Corp     For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

    Hispanoamérica se encuentra en estos momentos inmersa en un cambio de ciclo político marcado por un desplazamiento del electorado hacia la derecha. Este fenómeno, todo un "pendulazo" conservador, tuvo su punto de partida simbólico con la llegada de Javier Milei a la presidencia de Argentina a finales de 2023. Desde entonces, esta región ha encadenado una serie de victorias de candidatos de derechas que prometen orden, seguridad y más libertad económica. Sus nombres se han ido acumulando en los últimos dos años: Daniel Noboa en Ecuador, Rodrigo Paz en Bolivia tras dos décadas de dominio del MAS, José Antonio Kast en Chile, Nasry Asfura en Honduras y, hace solo unos días, Laura Fernández en Costa Rica. Este vuelco político responde a un cansancio generalizado hacia la clase política y a problemas estructurales que los gobiernos de izquierda que han sido saliendo no lograron resolver. Los ciudadanos han utilizado las urnas para castigar el deterioro de la seguridad, impulsado por el narcotráfico y la violencia de las pandillas, así como el estancamiento económico y una inflación que en algunos países no da tregua. Además, el colapso de la Venezuela chavista, que fue el referente durante veinte años, ha erosionado el atractivo de las ideas de izquierda. En este escenario la propuesta de "mano dura" contra el crimen y la reducción del aparato estatal ha encontrado un terreno fértil. Un factor determinante en este nuevo mapa político es la influencia de Donald Trump desde la Casa Blanca. El gobierno estadounidense está ejerciendo una notable presión diplomática y financiera, premia a los Gobiernos alineados con sus intereses y presiona a aquellos que mantienen relaciones estrechas con China. Presidentes como Bukele, Milei y Noboa han capitalizado su sintonía con el trumpismo. Además, la reciente caída de Maduro en Venezuela ha reforzado la percepción de que Estados Unidos está dispuesto a intervenir de forma directa o indirecta para recuperar su influencia histórica en el continente. Pero esta alineación ideológica tiene un límite infranqueable: la dependencia económica de China. A diferencia de lo que ocurría en el siglo XX, Estados Unidos ya no es el socio comercial dominante para gran parte de Sudamérica. Países como Brasil y Chile exportan mucho más a China que a EEUU, algo que ni los presidentes más alineados con el trumpismo pueden ignorar sin arriesgarse a un suicidio económico. Incluso figuras como Milei, a pesar de que se prodiga en buenos gestos hacia Trump, sabe que necesita estar a buenas con los chinos si quiere que sus políticas de apertura económica den los frutos esperados. De este modo, aunque Hispanoamérica parece decidida a adoptar modelos de derecha en otros ámbitos, en el de la economía seguirá vinculada a China. El éxito de esta nueva ola conservadora dependerá de su capacidad para ofrecer resultados tangibles en seguridad y empleo. Si estos gobiernos lo consiguen el ciclo podría durar muchos años; de lo contrario, la región seguirá atrapada en el vaivén político que la ha caracterizado durante el último siglo.

    Welcome to Episode 4 of Crossing Thresholds: Religion, Resilience & Migration, a special mini-series of Walk Talk Listen produced in connection with new research by the Joint Learning Initiative on Faith & Local Communities (JLI) and Christian Aid on faith and climate migration. In this episode, Maurice Bloem speaks with Nidia Rosmery Bustillos Rodríguez, a Bolivian traditional healer and herbalist born in Cochabamba, whose life and work bring together lived experience, academic training, and Indigenous knowledge. Nidia is trained in information management, development studies, and transpersonal psychology, and her professional path integrates research, cultural management, and institutional work in the fields of intercultural health, development, and the rights of Indigenous women.   Their conversation explores migration not only as physical movement, but as rupture and transformation. Born to parents who migrated for work and later forced to leave Bolivia to escape violent abuse, Nidia reflects on how family migration shapes identity across generations and how displacement, trauma, and spiritual meaning intersect. Her story reveals how survival can become a pathway toward healing, both for oneself and for others.   Nidia's professional work mirrors these themes. She has conducted research on traditional women healers, the use of natural resources, and information and communication technologies for the empowerment of Indigenous women, as well as on tambos and the Qhapaq Ñan. She currently serves as a Program Officer at the Pawanka Fund for the Arctic, Pacific, and Eurasia regions, and is responsible for the traditional medicine laboratory GAIA-TERRA. She is also CEO of DREAMCO SRL and the Cruz del Sur Foundation, and has collaborated widely with international organizations and feminist and Indigenous networks to strengthen initiatives related to traditional medicine, cultural heritage, and the preservation of ancestral knowledge.   Nidia's reflections echo key findings of the JLI–Christian Aid evidence review, which shows that faith and spirituality shape how people interpret displacement and that resilience often takes forms that policy and humanitarian systems struggle to recognize, including emotional, relational, and spiritual dimensions. Her life story gives human form to these insights, illustrating how loss, movement, and meaning are deeply intertwined.   Rather than a formal interview, this episode is a listening dialogue about what it means to leave home, to survive violence, and to transform pain into care. It is also a conversation about knowledge, memory, and the enduring role of ancestral wisdom in times of upheaval.

    Amid a global context of eroding multilateralism and rising US trade wars, Mercosur and the European Union are trying to create a shared market for more than 700 million people. The proposed free trade zone for goods and services encompasses 27 European countries, plus Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay on the other side of the Atlantic, with Bolivia in the process of joining as well. Combined, the economies involved in the deal make up for approximately 20% of global GDP.The deal was finally signed on January 17, after more than 26 years of back-and-forth negotiations. But yet again, European farming countries are doing whatever they can to stall its implementation. On January 21, European lawmakers backed a resolution to seek an opinion from the EU's Court of Justice on whether the free-trade deal complies with existing EU treaties.That could stall the deal by up to two years — although the agreement's backers, such as Germany, are trying to go ahead and implement it on a provisional basis until the court says its piece. Send us your feedbackSupport the show
