Guest: Thiago Luiz Ticchetti – National Director of MUFON Brazil In this chilling and eye-opening episode, Tony sits down with UFO investigator and author Thiago Luiz Ticchetti to uncover the shocking truth behind one of the most terrifying events in ufology: the 1977 Colares UFO attacks in Brazil. Known as Operation Saucer, this government-backed investigation documented mysterious lights, unexplained burns, and a community living in fear. Thiago shares exclusive insights from official military files, eyewitness accounts, and decades of research that reveal just how real—and dangerous—this phenomenon was. From the physical effects on victims to the abrupt shutdown of the operation by the Brazilian Air Force, this episode pulls back the curtain on a story the world is still trying to understand.

After the Civil War, thousands of defeated Confederates refused to live under the Union flag. Instead, they packed up their families and headed for new lives in South America in a Confederate exodus from the United States.One of them was Ezekiel B. Pyles, a young man from the mountains of north Georgia, who rode with General John Hunt Morgan's raiders, fought across East Tennessee and Southwest Virginia and was captured at the Battle of Kingsport before becoming part of Jefferson Davis' guard as he fled Richmond at the end of the Civil War.  His story didn't end there, for he joined around 20,000 other Southerners who migrated to Brazil to start over.  In this episode, Rod and Steve tell the story of Pyles' incredible journey — from the hills of Appalachia to the colony of Americana.  It's another one of the Stories of Appalachia.Don't forget to subscribe; you'll find us on your favorite podcast app.

In 1977, on the small island of Colares, Brazil, a series of UFO sightings escalated to full-blown attacks. After being hit by lasers, witnesses reported symptoms like paralysis and burns that landed a handful of them in the hospital. The Air Force was sent in to study the phenomenon, but to this day no one knows if the crafts were manmade or extraterrestrial in nature.For a full list of sources, please visit: sosupernaturalpodcast.com/alien-colares-ufo-incidentSo Supernatural is an Audiochuck and Crime House production.

Tesla shareholders have approved a pay package that could make Elon Musk the world's first dollar trillionaire. We discuss whether that's an obscene sum or a fair reward for success.Also in the programme: as world leaders meet ahead of the UN climate conference in Brazil, we ask a supporter of Donald Trump why the US president isn't there and why Mr Trump now says climate change is all a hoax; and the challenge of writing a piece of music to mark 80 years of Britain's Jodrell Bank Observatory.

The president of the Pacific island nation, Palau, considers whether COP is still worth it. Also on the programme, thousands of flights have been cancelled or delayed in the US on the first day of reduced air traffic caused by the government shutdown; and, the so-called "Google Maps" of Roman Roads -- the most extensive digital map that reveals hundreds of thousand of kilometres of old roads.(Photo: Brazil's President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva and Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez embrace next to European Council President Antonio Costa and Para state Governor Helder Barbalho as delegates attending the Belem Climate Summit ahead of the United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP30) gather for a family photo, in Belem, Brazil, November 7, 2025.

Ten years ago in Paris, the world set its key climate goal, to limit a rise in global temperatures to 1.5 degrees Celsius. Now the United Nations is warning that the planet is likely to overshoot that target in the next decade, and that swift action is needed to limit the damage. The warning comes as world leaders are gathering for the COP30 Climate Conference in Belem, Brazil. Christiane spoke to former UN Climate Chief Christiana Figueres, a key architect of the Paris Climate Agreement, in Brazil ahead of the summit.   Also on today's show: author Katy Hessel ("How to Live an Artful Life"); Grammy-award winning musician and songwriter Jacob Collier  Learn more about your ad choices.

The biggest climate negotiations of the year, COP30, are kicking off in Belem in the Brazilian Amazon. Longtime COP observer Jennifer Morgan joins us to preview COP30 and discuss the focus on closing the gap between current greenhouse gas reduction policies and what's needed to limit warming to a safer level. Also, King Charles III, who leads the Anglican Church, and Pope Leo XIV, who leads the Roman Catholic Church, recently joined in a historic prayer in the Sistine Chapel. This act of unity by these two faith leaders who are also sovereign heads of state was embedded in their shared concern for the environment, or creation.    And as one of the strongest hurricanes ever documented in the Atlantic, Hurricane Melissa brought catastrophic damage to Jamaica and Cuba, and an extensive relief and recovery effort is now underway. We talk about the aid efforts, long road to recovery, and importance of building back better.     ---    Federal funding for public radio has ended.

Harry McGee and Cormac McQuinn join Hugh Linehan to look back on the week in politics:· With renewed criticism from left-wing Opposition leaders of Tánaiste Simon Harris, over remarks he made about migration numbers in Ireland being too high, has it become almost impossible to have an honest discussion around immigration? · Taoiseach Micheál Martin is currently away at the Cop30 climate summit in Brazil, but the fallout from Fianna Fáil's disastrous presidential campaign shows little sign of ebbing away. Could a potential heave against the party leader be gathering momentum? · Could the controversy surrounding Ivan Yates and his admission that he advised Fianna Fáil's presidential candidate Jim Gavin, and the subsequent conflict of interest that created, all have been avoided if he highlighted it early on in the presidential campaign? · And Mayor-elect of New York City, Zohran Mamdani, has been branded a ‘commie', among other things, by US President Donald Trump and various members of the Republican Party, but has Mamdani shown the way forward for politicians mounting an election campaign?Plus, the panel picks their favourite Irish Times pieces of the week:· The annual British search for Irish poppy refuseniks, the $20,000 AI home robot butler, and Westmeath footballer Luke Loughlin on the issue of recreational drug use and the GAA.

Speaking at Cop30 in Brazil, the British prime minister, Keir Starmer, said the ‘consensus is gone' on tackling the climate crisis. It's an apt assessment because this week Australia's two major political parties have had very different commitments when it comes to climate action. The minister for climate change and energy, Chris Bowen, speaks to Guardian Australia's political editor, Tom McIlroy, about Labor's a free solar power scheme for some homes and the Coalition's continued infighting on emissions targets

First up on the podcast, Contributing Correspondent Sofia Moutinho visited the Xingu Indigenous territory in Brazil to learn about a long-standing collaboration between scientists and the Kuikuro to better understand early Amazon communities. Next on the show, we visit the Pacific pocket mouse recovery program at the San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance to talk with researchers about the tricky process of increasing genetic diversity in an endangered species. Researcher Aryn Wilder talks about a long-term project to interbreed mice from isolated populations in order to add more genetic diversity across the species—despite a mismatch in chromosome numbers between some of the groups. Debra Shier, associate director of the recovery ecology program at the San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance, takes us on a tour of the breeding facility.

Jon Watts, the Guardian's global environment editor, goes in search of answers to the question the journalist Dom Phillips was investigating when he was murdered: how to save the Amazon? In episode two of this miniseries from June 2025, Jon meets the people trying to make sure the rainforest is worth more standing than cut down – from a government minister attempting to establish Brazil's ‘bioeconomy' to a startup founder creating superfood supplements and a scientist organising night-time tours hunting for bioluminescent fungi. Jon explores new ways of finding value in the forest and asks whether they will be enough to secure its survival. Help support our independent journalism at theguardian.com/sciencepod

At dawn on October 28, residents of Rio de Janeiro woke to the sound of gunfire. Battles continued throughout the day in the favelas of Alemão and Penha, as police mounted a huge operation targeting the Commando Vermelho, or the Red Command, one of Brazil's largest organised criminal gangs.In the days that followed, as graphic images showed lines of bodies on the streets, it emerged that at least 115 civilians and four police officers had been killed, making it the most violent police operation in Brazilian history. In this episode, we speak to Robert Muggah, founder of the Institute Igarapé and a research collaborator at the Brazil LAB at Princeton University, about how organised crime become so deeply embedded in Brazil – and if there's a better way to confront it.This episode was produced by Mend Mariwany, Katie Flood and Gemma Ware.

How French media silence helped false stories claiming First Lady Brigitte Macron is a man to go viral. The unsung praises of France's street markets, which bring people together around buying and selling food. And France's short-lived colonial foray into Brazil.  False claims that President Emmanuel Macron's wife Brigitte is transgender first emerged online in 2021. The story could have fizzled out. But pushed by the far right and conspiracy theorists, it's now reached half the world's population. Ten people are on trial in France for cyberbullying the first lady and a lawsuit has been filed against a far-right influencer in the US. Thomas Huchon, an investigative journalist and teacher specialising in fake news, says he and other mainstream journalists failed to address the story when it broke, allowing conspiracists to fill the gap. (Listen @2'15'') Open-air food markets are arguably a cornerstone of life in France. Held once or twice a week in most cities, they're one of the few ways of still bringing people together. On a visit to Paris' Aligre market, journalist Olivier Razemon, author of a new book extolling street markets as "an ingredient for a happy society", argues that they are underappreciated by policymakers and the general public for their ability to create community and revive urban centres. (Listen @20'40'') One of France's earliest colonisation attempts was in what is now Brazil, when 600 settlers arrived in Guanabara Bay – now Rio de Janeiro – in November 1555. The colony, called France Antarctique (Antarctic France), lasted only 12 years, but it inspired other French colonising missions as well as reshaping Europeans' ideas about South America and its people.

A historic medal haul rarely happens by accident. We unpack how Brazil engineered four finalists and two world titles through clear planning, ruthless scouting, and conditioning that didn't fade in the final minute. Maria's long-awaited women's world crown set the tone; Enrike's rise from a turbulent home environment to world champion showed what happens when talent meets structure and belief. The thread through each story is the same: know the bracket, know yourself, and perform when it counts.We also face the tougher side of the sport: when a program with resources under-delivers. The U.S. finished 20th and still blasted “dominance” in a newsletter. That disconnect matters. We talk about the decisions behind the scenes—who sits in the chair, how prep camps are run, how personal coaches and national staff are used, and why accountability at the top shapes everything on the mat. If athletes are judged by results, leadership should be too. Culture isn't hashtags in the holding area; it's what you do under pressure and how you represent your teammates when the cameras aren't rolling.Rules and tech didn't help. Referees were told to “let them fight,” but holding went unpunished and video review for head shots disappeared, returning power to inconsistent judgment. That's not modernizing; that's muddling. We dig into what fair, watchable Taekwondo should reward and why development pathways must stay open—especially as champions skew younger. Tunisia and Iran offered bright examples of pipelines that translate fast to the senior podium.If you care about high performance, athlete-first systems, and a sport that looks like Taekwondo again, this one is a must-listen. Subscribe, share with a coach or teammate, and leave a review with the one change you'd implement tomorrow.

The COP30 climate summit will open on November 10 in Belem, a city in Brazil's Amazon, as the rainforest continues to be threatened by deforestation. One reason is the mining of gold – essential for smartphones and computers. Peru is South America's leading producer of the precious metal. With prices reaching record highs, artisanal mines are operating at full capacity, polluting the rainforest in the process. In response, some are now trying to reduce the environmental impact of their activities and offering "clean" gold. FRANCE 24's Agathe Fourcade and Martin Chabal report, with Wassim Cornet.

The Amazon rainforest is home to billions of trees, animals and people. It's spread across nine countries in South America - Brazil, Peru, Colombia, Bolivia, Ecuador, French Guiana, Guyana, Suriname and Venezuela - but the majority of it, almost 60%, is in Brazil. As well as being rich in biodiversity, the Amazon is also very important in the world's fight against climate change; as it absorbs carbon dioxide and produces oxygen. But the Amazon has been declining. In fact, in 2022 Brazil set a new deforestation record for the amount of trees cut down in the rainforest in one month. This impact is being felt directly by the indigenous groups who have been living there for thousands of years, but also the world as a whole. In this episode we're joined by Graihagh Jackson, from the BBC's The Climate Question podcast, and Dr Erika Berenguer, who's a Senior Research Associate at the University of Oxford and Lancaster. We chat about why the Amazon is so important, and what's being done to protect it. This year's climate summit Cop30 is being held in Belem, in the Amazon, for the first time. So we also discuss what impact this could have on the world's largest rainforest.
