Across countries and childhood bedrooms, a tall shadow in a top hat appears to watch, threaten, protect, or possibly feed. This is one of the most infamous figures in paranormal lore: the Hat Man. Throughout the listener encounters we share, patterns emerge. He thrives in sleep paralysis. He appears during trauma. He lingers near children…Sleep tight. Listener Stories Include: A listener in Brazil describes a pale man in a black suit and red tie who has appeared in her dreams since childhood, draining her energy and punishing her for speaking against him. A mother hides her young daughter under a blanket as a towering shadow in a top hat stands in the doorway insisting that any children he finds will be his. After ghostly handprints appear on a late night train ride, a top hatted shadow follows a family home, and eventually getting physical.  A new mom recounts postpartum sleep paralysis in which a tall figure lifts her newborn from the bassinet and vanishes while she is frozen in fear.

Is the global financial system quietly rewiring around XRP? In this episode of On The Chain, Jeff and Chip break down the latest developments surrounding XRP, Ripple, and the Flare Network — and why the infrastructure around digital assets may be expanding faster than most people realize. Ripple continues to grow its global footprint across crypto infrastructure and global payments, with Ripple Payments now processing over $100B+ across 60+ markets. At the same time, Ripple is expanding its financial stack in places like Brazil, launching custody solutions, supporting RLUSD adoption, and partnering with major crypto exchanges and financial institutions. Meanwhile, institutional access to digital assets like XRP is evolving as regulated investment vehicles such as crypto ETFs begin opening the door for large capital flows into the crypto ecosystem. As these financial products mature, more institutions may gain exposure to the infrastructure powering blockchain finance. We also examine why Flare Network may become a critical piece of the ecosystem by adding programmability and smart contract capabilities around XRP and the XRP Ledger, potentially expanding the utility of XRP within decentralized finance and tokenized financial markets. But this episode isn't just about crypto. At the same time these developments are unfolding, the geopolitical environment is becoming increasingly unstable — from shifting alliances across Europe to tensions around global trade routes like the Strait of Hormuz. Historically, periods of geopolitical pressure often coincide with changes to the underlying financial system and global settlement infrastructure. That raises an important question: Is XRP becoming part of the next generation of global financial infrastructure? On The Chain explores the intersection of: • XRP • Ripple • Flare Network • crypto infrastructure • global payments • digital assets • geopolitics • macro finance If you're interested in XRP news, Ripple updates, Flare Network developments, crypto regulation, digital asset adoption, and the future of the financial system, make sure to subscribe to On The Chain. New episodes explore how crypto, macro finance, and geopolitics are shaping the next financial era.

The cardinal tetra is one of the most popular pet fish in the world. They look like little red and blue sequins. You've almost certainly seen them at the pet store or the fish tank at your dentist's office. They're everywhere. Not so long ago, most of the world's supply of cardinals came from just one place. It's a little town deep in the rainforests of Brazil, where locals still catch these fish by hand. But the business that this town has relied on for decades has come under threat. Recently, we hopped on a plane to see this unusual economy for ourselves — and, two different visions for how to save it. For more information about these fish, check out Project Piaba. Pre-order the Planet Money book and get a free gift. / Subscribe to Planet Money+Listen free: Apple Podcasts, Spotify, the NPR app or anywhere you get podcasts.Facebook / Instagram / TikTok / Our weekly Newsletter.This episode was hosted by Jeff Guo.

If you had to start your business over from scratch today, would you build it the same way, or would you build it entirely around an AI core? Agility requires more than just adapting to change; it demands a willingness to proactively dismantle what's working today in order to build what's necessary for tomorrow. It's about challenging the very playbook that brought you success, especially when a fundamental shift like AI arrives. Today, we're going to talk about the playbook for building a unicorn-level business in one era, and the courage it takes to reinvent that playbook for the next. We'll discuss the difference between using AI as a feature versus using it as a foundation, and how leadership and team structure need to evolve to not just survive, but thrive, during this shift. To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Jason VandeBoom, Founder & CEO at ActiveCampaign.

I came to Brazil for Carnival thinking I would stay for a week. That was a month ago. And I am still here.   What started as a "little carnival moment" turned into one of the most expansive, liberating and eye opening experiences of my life. And I had to share everything I learned with you.   Because here is what I know now: sexiness is not about your body. It is about how alive you are. And Carnival taught me that more than anything ever has.   In this episode I am sharing everything, the herstory of Carnival, the logistics, the culture, the kissing, the outfits, the safety tips for female solo travelers, and most importantly, the state of consciousness that Brazil lives in every single day that we have been missing in the Western world.   In this episode we explore:

A Thousand Kisses: A Family’s Escape From the Nazis to a New Life by John W. Weiser https://www.amazon.com/Thousand-Kisses-Familys-Escape-Nazis/dp/1978318073 Intimate and harrowing, this memoir of love, escape and redemption is a rich account of the Weiser family’s life and flight from Nazi Vienna to Hungary to Brazil and to the U.S. It will keep the reader glued to a narrative that skillfully recreates the palpable tension of multiple escapes. A Thousand Kisses is at once instructive about a family's courage and determination to stay together and about the dangers of remaining silent while a government tightens immigration laws and promotes racial scapegoating.

Several Brazilian women have come forward describing how a modeling recruiter connected to Jeffrey Epstein allegedly attempted to recruit them while they were teenagers pursuing careers in the fashion industry. According to accounts gathered by journalists, French modeling agent Jean-Luc Brunel, a longtime associate of Epstein, approached young women in Brazil and other parts of South America with offers of modeling opportunities abroad. One Brazilian woman said Brunel visited her family home when she was 16 to persuade her mother to allow her to travel for a modeling contest in Ecuador. At the time, the family believed the opportunity was legitimate, unaware of Brunel's connections to Epstein. Investigators later found evidence that modeling agencies tied to Brunel were used to identify and recruit young women from South America and help arrange visas for them to travel to the United States.The accounts form part of a broader picture of how Epstein's network allegedly used the international modeling industry as a recruitment channel. Several women said they were approached with promises of fashion work, travel, or contests that could launch their careers, only later realizing they had been targeted by people linked to Epstein's circle. Brunel, who worked closely with Epstein and received financial backing from him for the agency MC2 Model Management, was later arrested in France on accusations including rape of a minor and trafficking-related offenses. He denied wrongdoing but died in a Paris prison in 2022 before standing trial, leaving many of the allegations about his role in recruiting young women for Epstein unresolved in court.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Interview with Alan Carter, President & CEO of Cabral Gold Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/cabral-gold-tsxvcbr-advancing-towards-q4-2026-production-8738Recording date: 13th March 2026Cabral Gold (TSXV:CBR) is developing a district-scale gold project in northern Brazil's Tapajós region through a strategic two-stage approach designed to fund exploration from operational cash flow rather than shareholder dilution. The company's Phase 1 heap leach operation, currently 54% complete with a capital cost of $37.7 million, targets gold production in the fourth quarter of 2026.President and CEO Alan Carter emphasizes the project's economic advantages, with all-in production costs expected near $1,000 per ounce. At current gold prices above $5,000 per ounce, the modest 25,000-ounce annual production from Phase 1 should generate approximately $100 million in pre-tax cash flow—funding that will support aggressive district exploration without requiring additional equity raises.The project benefits from unique geological characteristics, featuring 60 to 70 meters of weathered oxide material that requires no drilling, blasting, or conventional milling. This free-digging saprolite needs only cement addition for processing, dramatically reducing both capital and operating costs compared to traditional hard rock mining.Recent developments have catalyzed investor interest. On March 10, 2026, Cabral secured the LP (preliminary mining license), representing Brazil's most critical permitting milestone after a process initiated in 2018. Two days later, the company announced exceptional drill results from the Jerimum Cima discovery: 9.5 meters at 87.4 grams per ton gold, including 2.9 meters at 285 grams per ton.Jerimum Cima represents one of four new discoveries since 2022, expanding the deposit count from three to at least six within the district. The company's current 1.2 million ounce resource awaits updating later in 2026, while 50 additional untested targets remain across a 7-kilometer soil anomaly—seven times larger than nearby Tocantinzinho, Brazil's third-largest open-pit gold mine.Carter notes the district's historical context: during the 1980s Tapajós gold rush, approximately 2 million ounces were extracted from placer workings at Cuiú Cuiú, with "the vast majority of that placer gold" remaining unexplained by current hard-rock discoveries.View Cabral Gold's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/cabral-goldSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

What if the promises God has written over your life are already divinely guaranteed — and all that is standing between you and their fulfillment is your willingness to actively take hold of them by faith? In this episode, guest missionary Joshua — a church planter who moved to Brazil seven months pregnant, with no language, no support, and nothing but two words from God — brings one of the most stirring messages you will hear this year. Drawing from Hebrews 11, John 4, and Mark 11, he walks you through four practical principles of possessing faith: your posture, your mouth, your perspective, and your willingness to risk. This is not a message about waiting — it is a message about rising up. If your heart is hungry for breakthrough, for harvest, and for the fullness of what God has called you to, press play and get ready to be stirred.

It was Friday the 13th, and things got weird. We went full spooky mode this week — diving into the eerie Elisa Lam case again, the most haunted place in the world (spoiler: it was an island), and the mysterious Dyatlov Pass Incident. We also hit the San Luis Valley UAPs, haunted spots right here in Colorado, and the guy who voluntarily jumped into a lion enclosure in Brazil. You know, light stuff.Oh, and Mike tried to guess where 20 of the world's craziest foods came from — it went surprisingly well. We also debated Naked and Afraid vs. Alone, ranked the largest insects on earth, and somehow ended up talking about the noises in the night that woke our wives but absolutely did not wake us… until Tony grabbed a baseball bat at 2:24am. We've all been there.And yes — Mike once walked into the wrong person's house in his early 20s. And yes — he once caught a drunk guy taking a leak right outside his window. Just a normal episode, really.This one had it all. We locked the doors, checked the windows, and tried not to think about the island.Cheers!m&t#FridayThe13th#TrueCrime#ElisaLam#Paranormal#HauntedPlaces#DyatlovPass#UAP#UFO#ColoradoHaunted#SanLuisValley#PodcastEp13#SpookyPodcast#WeirdFoods#NakedAndAfraid#GiantInsects

New figures out from Thames Valley Air Ambulance show that women are less likely than men to receive bystander CPR, with one in three female cardiac arrest patients getting no CPR until crews arrive on scene. The CEO of Thames Valley Air Ambulance, Amanda McLean will join Anita Rani to talk about what is causing this reluctance, and we'll be joined by Chloe Lipton, a woman who is campaigning for female manikins to be mandatory in CPR and defibrillator training.Yesterday, Mandy Wixon was jailed for 13 years for keeping a vulnerable woman captive in her home for 25 years. She was found guilty of two counts of requiring a person to perform forced or compulsory labour and four charges of assault occasioning actual bodily harm. Gloucestershire police have said that the victim was kept in 'squalid conditions'. BBC West of England Journalist Chloe Harcombe picks up the story with Anita Rani. Cambridge University have conducted research into AI toys, which are marketed to children as young as three. But what are they, and what is the impact of this tech on such young children? Joining Anita is Dr Emily Goodacre from the University of Cambridge's Faculty of Education. Monika Radojevic tells Anita why she took the inspiration for her debut novel Strangerland, from her own parents' love story. Set in the early 1990s, these two immigrants from Brazil and Montenegro, then part of Yugoslavia, fall deeply in love in London. However, it takes journeying across continents and into the start of a civil war for them to be together. She joins Anita. Maimuna Memon is an actress, singer, composer, and playwright. Last year, she won a Laurence Olivier Award for her performance in the musical Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812 at the Donmar in London. Maimuna talks to Anita about the real-life stories behind her latest show Manic Street Creature.Presenter: Anita Rani Producer: Corinna Jones

In this episode of Making It To Milan, co-host Ashley Cane speaks with Aline Rocha, a Brazilian Paralympian who competes in both the Winter and Summer Paralympic Games. Representing Brazil as a sitting skier in cross-country and biathlon, and as a wheelchair racer on the track, Aline is a soon-to-be five-time Paralympian. She reflects on beginning wheelchair racing in 2010 after being introduced to Paralympic sport by her husband and coach, Fernando, competing at Rio 2016, and becoming Brazil's first woman to compete at a Winter Paralympic Games in 2018 after learning to ski in Sweden.

Several Brazilian women have come forward describing how a modeling recruiter connected to Jeffrey Epstein allegedly attempted to recruit them while they were teenagers pursuing careers in the fashion industry. According to accounts gathered by journalists, French modeling agent Jean-Luc Brunel, a longtime associate of Epstein, approached young women in Brazil and other parts of South America with offers of modeling opportunities abroad. One Brazilian woman said Brunel visited her family home when she was 16 to persuade her mother to allow her to travel for a modeling contest in Ecuador. At the time, the family believed the opportunity was legitimate, unaware of Brunel's connections to Epstein. Investigators later found evidence that modeling agencies tied to Brunel were used to identify and recruit young women from South America and help arrange visas for them to travel to the United States.The accounts form part of a broader picture of how Epstein's network allegedly used the international modeling industry as a recruitment channel. Several women said they were approached with promises of fashion work, travel, or contests that could launch their careers, only later realizing they had been targeted by people linked to Epstein's circle. Brunel, who worked closely with Epstein and received financial backing from him for the agency MC2 Model Management, was later arrested in France on accusations including rape of a minor and trafficking-related offenses. He denied wrongdoing but died in a Paris prison in 2022 before standing trial, leaving many of the allegations about his role in recruiting young women for Epstein unresolved in court.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

A House of Lords committee described the situation as a "concerted campaign of misinformation," warning that false narratives and deliberate anti-EV propaganda by some in the media are a major barrier to EV uptake in the UK.MOST UK BUYERS MISS EV GRANTCarwow research found that 64% of in-market UK car buyers were unaware of the Government's EV grant, despite 73% of those who did know about it saying a full £3,750 discount would make them more likely to choose an EV. EVs now account for just under a quarter of new car sales, with only 8 of the 46 qualifying models eligible for the maximum grant amount.MERCEDES SETS OUT 2026 GLA PLANMercedes will launch the third-generation GLA later in 2026 on its MMA platform, offering hybrid and fully electric variants with an 800V system, a new vehicle supercomputer, and over-the-air update capability.

Today, guest host Selena Simmons-Duffin is exploring a detail very personal to her: How the number of older brothers a person has can influence their sexuality.Scientific research on sexuality has a dark history, with long-lasting harmful effects on queer communities. Much of the early research has also been debunked over time. But not this "fraternal birth order effect." The fact that a person's likelihood of being gay increases with each older brother has been found all over the world – from Turkey to North America, Brazil, the Netherlands and beyond. Today, Selena gets into all the details: What this effect is, how it's been studied and what it can (and can't) explain about sexuality.Interested in the science of our closest relatives?
