There are Pearl Jam crowds in the United States that are so passionate about the band that the shows in these places become can't miss. However, you take the enthusiasm of any North American crowd and it will pale in comparison to the fans in South and Latin America. While Brazil, Chile and Mexico are known for having strong participation, it's the Argentinians that are the ones who started it all. This episode goes back to the first time Pearl Jam played in South America on tour in 2005, and the first show in Buenos Aires where the crowd that sang the incredible guitar melodies that defined the concert experience down there. At recent shows, the band knows exactly what they are gonna get out of these uber impassioned crowds, but back when they toured the continent for the first time, they had no idea what was coming. Eddie Vedder's experience with these crowds came back in 1996 when The Ramones went down there on their final tour run. Pearl Jam had yet to play there, but when Johnny Ramone died in 2004, it took only 14 months before they made their first visit. And what they saw was nothing short of incredible. Fans singing melodies to big hits such as Jeremy, Do The Evolution, Even Flow and Corduroy, but also singing loudly on deeper stuff like MFC and Breakerfall. If this show proves anything, it's that this band would have a long lasting relationship with the country and bring some of the theatrics to other venues all over the world. We'll dig into an incredible version of Black and talk about the strong connection that the crowd has made with it throughout the years, and a ripping 11-minute version of Rearviewmirror with one of the best bridge sections you'll ever hear. Lots of crowd discussion, as well as a little talk on the recent Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame induction featuring Soundgarden. We'll talk about what it means to finally see them in, and plead our case for another legendary Seattle band to be next.

November 12, 20253I Atlas-JACKED UP DAILY!In this episode Jack and Tim discuss 3I Atlas, and what it could be. Is it real or more deception?3I/ATLAS was first detected on July 1, 2025, by the Asteroid Terrestrial‑impact Last Alert System (ATLAS) telescope in Chile. NASA Science+2Space+2Its full designation: 3I/ATLAS (C/2025 N1). The “3I” indicates it is the third known interstellar object (an object not bound by the Sun's gravity) after 1I/ʻOumuamua and 2I/Borisov. Space+1Observations show comet-like activity: a coma (cloud of dust/gas around the nucleus) and perhaps a tail. Which is why scientists mostly call it a comet rather than an asteroid. NASA Science+2Space+2Importantly: its trajectory is hyperbolic (i.e., it's coming into the solar system from interstellar space and will leave again) — so it isn't orbiting the Sun like typical comets or asteroids.

Este domingo 16 de noviembre se celebra la primera vuelta de las elecciones presidenciales de Chile. Y uno de los candidatos con más opciones de pasar a segunda vuelta es el libertario Johannes Kaiser. ¿Qué propone exactamente para el país? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
En la campaña presidencial en Chile la inseguridad ha sido el tema central en los paneles de discusión, el asunto con el que comenzó el último debate televisivo de los candidatos y uno de los que más marca la agenda nacional. Informe de nuestra corresponsal en Santiago de Chile, Yasna Mussa. Los chilenos eligen presidente este domingo con una exministra de Trabajo comunista y un abogado ultraderechista como favoritos, preocupados sobre todo por la seguridad y la migración irregular, dos temas que le dieron impulso a la derecha. La inseguridad parece ser la materia que más le quita el sueño a los chilenos. Pero, ¿hay razones objetivas para esto? Jorge Araya, académico de la Universidad de Santiago y ex director de Seguridad Pública en el Ministerio del Interior de Chile, dice que hay una diferencia entre "la sensación de inseguridad y los índices reales de delincuencia". Para él, el énfasis en ese tema "tiene que ver con el abuso que hacen los medios de comunicación", pero también "con una pulsión política en el sentido de que la derecha en Chile es una derecha bastante dura que siempre ha utilizado el tema de la seguridad para atacar a los gobiernos de centroizquierda que han habido en el país". Otra percepción que se ha instalado durante esta campaña es que el crimen organizado es un fenómeno importado. A contracorriente de esta idea, Araya piensa que la violencia ligada a este fenómeno también surge en suelo nacional. A contracorriente de la idea que se ha instalado durante la campaña, Araya dice que "en los últimos 20 años en Chile se fue anidando un fenómeno de narcotráfico ligado a bandas nacionales de chilenos que se dedicaron al narcotráfico y que se fueron potenciando y ganando mucho dinero y haciéndose poderosos". Su visión es muy distinta a lo que se ha instalado en los debates presidenciales, donde la mayoría de las posturas apuntan a mano dura y exacerbar el control policial, incluso imitando modelos como los de Nayib Bukele en El Salvador. José Antonio Kast, candidato del partido Republicano apunta en esa línea. El tema de fondo, la población segregada, no se evoca "Lo primero es que hay que recuperar el control de las cárceles y los narcotraficantes. Los líderes del crimen organizado y los terroristas tienen que saber que van a estar en cárceles de máxima seguridad aislados. En segundo lugar, cerrar nuestras fronteras. Y en tercer lugar, apoyar jurídica y políticamente a nuestras policías y que las autoridades se pongan por delante de cualquier acción que se vaya a realizar" Franco Parisi, candidato independiente con propuestas bastante populistas cree que la seguridad pasa por mayor presencia militar "Vamos a sacar a los militares a la calle con buenas propuestas de ‘buenismo' no se logra". Araya prefiere tomar distancia de los discursos grandilocuentes en época de elecciones, pues para él la inseguridad tiene otras causas. "No veo que haya entre los candidatos grandes propuestas que efectivamente aborden el tema de fondo: es que tenemos a un sector importante de la población que de alguna manera ha ido quedando segregada, ha ido quedando, digamos, postergada en el desarrollo económico, en la inserción laboral. Y son esos niños y jóvenes, ese sector de la población, que si no hacemos prevención y si no generamos oportunidades, van a seguir alimentando las redes de tráfico y de crimen organizado".
En esta noche de Relatos de la Noche, reunimos cuatro historias que nos recuerdan que el miedo puede aparecer en los lugares más cotidianos: en un puente desierto, en los cerros de un rancho, en una calle perdida o en el silencio de un taller. Desde Ensenada hasta Oaxaca, pasando por Zacatecas y Durango, conoceremos los testimonios de quienes se atrevieron a mirar lo que otros prefieren ignorar. Relatos sobre presencias que regresan con la lluvia, seres que habitan bajo la tierra, brujas que aún caminan entre nosotros y guardianes que enfrentan al mal con más valor del que cualquiera imaginaría. —

Time for our last installment of live interviews from Coffee Fest 2025. This time from Orlando, FL USA! We are talking with four awesome professionals about everything from training and tasting, Florida coffee culture and barista work - to career dreams coming true through hard work and faith, and empowering your baristas with distributed management! First we are talking with Claudio Martinez! For Claudio, coffee has never been just a drink, it is part of his soul, rooted in his family's 70-year heritage in Honduras. That connection was reignited in Thessaloniki, Greece, where, under the mentorship of Tony Sebastian of I Heart Coffee Roasters, he embraced the beauty, tradition, and community that coffee represents. His first hands-on experience came in a small drive-through coffee shop in Ellendale, North Dakota, owned by a close friend. As a young barista, Claudio discovered the joy of serving others one cup at a time. That spark guided him forward, leading to opportunities with global icons such as Lavazza, where he worked as a trainer and educator, and later with List + Beisler, where he shared exceptional coffees as a green trader with roasters across the country. Each step nurtured his gratitude and reinforced his belief in coffee as a bridge between cultures and communities. Today, as the driving force behind Golden Bush Coffee, Claudio channels that lifelong passion into supporting food and beverage communities throughout Florida and beyond. His mission is grounded in humility and purpose, guided by the belief that coffee is never just about what's in the cup—it is about people, stories, and the connections it creates. Links: https://goldenbushcoffee.com/ https://www.instagram.com/goldenbushcoffee/ Next up we feature Vanessa Jaramillo! Vanessa Jaramillo is the Regional Events & Operations Coordinator for Florida Coffee Culture, where she helps connect and celebrate the people behind Florida's growing specialty coffee scene. As a Colombian-American, Vanessa's connection to coffee began long before she became a barista — she visited origin before ever working behind a bar. After discovering specialty coffee in Australia during her gap year, she returned to Florida with a deep passion for community and storytelling. With three years in the coffee industry, Vanessa has immersed herself in every part of the craft — from cuppings and throwdowns to competitions and community events. She's driven by the belief that coffee is a universal connector that brings people together from all walks of life.

María Esther is the Co-Founder and Co-Creator of Coffea School, a Coffee & Tea Training Center located in Miami Gardens, Florida. Lawyer, with Master in Tax and Administrative Law. Q-Instructor. SCA Authorized Trainer in the entire Coffee Skills Program, from seed to cup. SCA-ReCo Fellow. SCA Technical Standard Committee Fellow, 2016-2018. CQI Q-Processing Professional. CQI Quality Evaluation and Post-Harvest Processing Assistant Instructor. CVA Program Trainer. Has traveled the world teaching about coffee: Venezuela, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, Chile, Ethiopia, United States. Passionate about coffee and the incredible relationships that growth in within. A sustainability believer, always willing to learn more. Links: https://coffeaschool.com/ https://www.instagram.com/coffeacompany/?hl=en Finally we round off the episode with a wonderful conversation with Katherine Morris! Katherine Morris is the Owner and CFO of Cherry Coffee Company in Fort Worth, Texas, which includes Cherry Coffee Shop, a values-driven neighborhood café, and Novel Coffee Roasters, a specialty roastery with a focus on intentional sourcing and private-label partnerships. With over 18 years of experience across finance, nonprofit, and hospitality, Katherine blends operational know-how with a people-first approach to leadership. At Cherry, she introduced a shared management model that empowers baristas to lead key areas of the business — from coffee development to inventory — helping create a resilient, collaborative team culture.

In May of 1895, on the old San Francisco waterfront, four sailors signed onto the four-masted barkentine Arago for a voyage to Valparaiso, Chile (“and thence to such other foreign ports as the master might direct, and thence to return to the United States”) via Astoria. By the time they got to Astoria, the four of them had had enough of conditions on the Arago. They stepped off the ship and essentially told the skipper, “We quit.” In doing so, they changed history — and the legal status of sailors would never be the same. (Astoria, Clatsop County; 1890s) (For text and pictures, see https://offbeatoregon.com/20-11.arago-four-sailors-slavery-591.html)

From the publisher:“There Is Life on the Planet Mars” ―New York Times, December 9, 1906This New York Times headline was no joke. In the early 1900s, many Americans actually believed we had discovered intelligent life on Mars, as best-selling science writer David Baron chronicles in The Martians, his truly bizarre tale of a nation swept up in Mars mania.At the center of Baron's historical drama is Percival Lowell, the Boston Brahmin and Harvard scion, who observed “canals” etched into the surface of Mars. Lowell devised a grand theory that the red planet was home to a utopian society that had built gargantuan ditches to funnel precious meltwater from the polar icecaps to desert farms and oasis cities. The public fell in love with the ambitious amateur astronomer who shared his findings in speeches and wildly popular books.While at first people treated the Martians whimsically—Martians headlining Broadway shows, biologists speculating whether they were winged or gilled—the discussion quickly became serious. Inventor Nikola Tesla announced he had received radio signals from Mars; Alexander Graham Bell agreed there was “no escape from the conviction” that intelligent beings inhabited the planet. Martian excitement reached its zenith when Lowell financed an expedition to photograph Mars from Chile's Atacama Desert, resulting in what newspapers hailed as proof of the Martian canals' existence.Triumph quickly yielded to tragedy. Those wild claims and highly speculative photographs emboldened Lowell's critics, whose withering attacks gathered steam and eventually wrecked the man and his theory—but not the fervor he had started. Although Lowell would die discredited and delusional in 1916, the Mars frenzy spurred a nascent literary genre called science fiction, and the world's sense of its place in the universe would never be the same.Today, the red planet maintains its grip on the public's imagination. Many see Mars as civilization's destiny—the first step toward our becoming an interplanetary species—but, as David Baron demonstrates, this tendency to project our hopes onto the world next door is hardly new. The Martians is a scintillating and necessary reminder that while we look to Mars for answers, what we often find are mirrors of ourselves.David Baron's website is https://davidbaronauthor.com/ Information on his book can be found at https://wwnorton.com/books/9781324090663He is on social media at https://x.com/dhbaron?lang=enAxelbankHistory.com is designed by https://www.ellieclairedesigns.com/Axelbank Reports History and Today" can be found on social media at https://twitter.com/axelbankhistoryhttps://instagram.com/axelbankhistoryhttps://facebook.com/axelbankhistory
Chile lleva tres meses sumido en campaña electoral de cara a las presidenciales del próximo domingo 16 de noviembre. Ese día se celebrará la primera vuelta, pero todo indica que habrá balotaje porque ninguno de los favoritos consigue superar el 30% de intención de voto en las encuestas. La segunda vuelta, de ser necesaria, está prevista para el 14 de diciembre. Estas elecciones ponen fin al mandato de Gabriel Boric, que en 2021 ganó en segunda vuelta a José Antonio Kast por 10 puntos de diferencia. Aquellos comicios parecían cerrar el ciclo que se abrió con el estallido social de 2019, pero no fue así. Los ecos de aquellas protestas que paralizaron el país durante meses duraron hasta el rechazo del plebiscito constitucional hace dos años, cuando Boric se encontraba ya a mitad de mandato. Eso fue lo que marcó el final de este periodo tan convulso en la historia reciente de Chile. La popularidad de Boric es relativamente baja, pero un tercio de los chilenos aprueban de forma muy entusiasta su gestión. La Constitución de 1980 le impide la reelección inmediata, por lo que busca continuidad en Jeannette Jara, una candidata que hasta abril fue su ministra de trabajo. En Chile el voto es obligatorio desde hace tres años, lo que anticipa una alta participación. La campaña dio comienzo en agosto, ha sido muy intensa y el panorama político se presenta realmente fragmentado. Hay ocho candidatos y cuatro grandes temas de debate: la inseguridad, los problemas económicos, la inmigración y las reformas del gobierno Boric. La inseguridad lidera con mucho las preocupaciones de los chilenos. En torno al 80% considera que el país es inseguro y solo el 39% se siente tranquilo caminando de noche por la calle. Aunque Chile sigue siendo más seguro que la mayor parte de países de Sudamérica, el crimen organizado ha crecido en los últimos años. Todos los candidatos proponen mano dura (cárceles, policía y leyes más duras), un terreno claramente favorable a la derecha. En economía, la inflación del 4% y el desempleo del 8% es también motivo de preocupación junto a las listas de espera hospitalarias, la vivienda y la corrupción, pero el eje central del debate es la delincuencia. Jeannette Jara representa al oficialismo. Lidera las encuestas con un 25-30% de esperanza de voto y ha prometido acabar con el secreto bancario y un ingreso mínimo de 750.000 pesos (unos 700 euros) para familias vulnerables. Tras ella hay otros tres candidatos que podrían pasar a segunda vuelta: Evelyn Matthei, alcaldesa de Providencia y exministra de Sebastián Piñera, de centro derecha, José Antonio Kast, líder del Partido Republicano, de derecha conservadora y el nacional libertario Johannes Kaiser, diputado y hermano del Axel Kaiser, que se estrena como candidato con una receta que recuerda mucho a Javier Milei y a la derecha identitaria europea. A la primera vuelta la izquierda llega formando un bloque tras la candidatura de Jeannette Jara. La derecha, por el contrario, está dividida entre Matthei, Kast y Kaiser. Las encuestas apuntan a una segunda vuelta prácticamente segura. Lo más probable es que Jara pase sin problema. La pregunta es saber si Kast o Kaiser competirán con ella. El 14 de diciembre saldremos de dudas, pero sólo después una campaña que se promete muy caliente tras la criba del domingo.

CannCon, JB White, and Cam Cooksey are back with an uproarious Marine Corps birthday episode of Y Chromes, celebrating 250 years of Semper Fi spirit and plenty of friendly trash talk. The guys kick things off with NFL highlights, laughter at Alpha's missing streak after his team's losses, and a recap of the now-legendary Badlands beach football game at GART Cocoa Beach. Between fantasy football banter and talk of bruised egos, they dive into Trump's unforgettable NFL broadcast moment and a wild discussion on gender roles, relationships, and cultural traditions. From debates about feminism and serving your man's plate to military humor, death metal, and Miss Chile's shocking performance, no topic is off-limits. The crew wraps up with pure chaos, laughter, and a plug for Soft Disclosure, officially “Black man approved.”
What if the same mindset that gets you through a Class IV rapid could help you start a business, write a book, or take a bold leap in life? In this episode of The Discomfort Zone, Anna sits down with Melissa DeMarie — international kayak coach, river guide, and founder of California Watersport Collective — to talk about how navigating the unknown on the river mirrors the discomfort we face in life, leadership, and growth. Melissa shares her "mental flow chart" — a practical, soulful framework for aking decisions when fear hits. We explore:
According to the TIAA Institute, American adults correctly answered just 49% of basic financial questions in 2024, suggesting a fundamental gap in economic literacy. In this episode Robert Shimer, Professor of Economics at the University of Chicago, and John List, Professor of Economics and Director of the Becker Friedman Institute, discuss Economics for Everyone, a groundbreaking program that teaches economic reasoning without the math. From classroom experiments that predict market equilibrium to 60 professional videos watched worldwide and teacher training programs across Chile, Colombia, and Saudi Arabia, they explore how economic thinking shapes everything from Instagram scrolling to tariff policy, and why critical thinking about causality versus correlation has never been more important.

Interview with Hayden Locke, CEO & Jose Antonio Merino, CFO of Marimaca CopperOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/marimaca-copper-tsxmari-industry-leading-economics-meet-growth-potential-7830Recording date: 10th November 2025Marimaca Copper has secured environmental approval for its oxide copper project in northern Chile, marking a significant milestone that positions the company to break ground by the end of Q1 2026. The approval, granted through Chile's Declaration of Environmental Impact (DIA) pathway, represents years of strategic planning and proactive stakeholder engagement that distinguished the company's approach from typical mining development.The DIA approval followed submission of a comprehensive 4,800-page document that underwent rigorous review by 17 separate government agencies. Each agency examined whether the project would generate "significant environmental impact" within their specific scope, from water resources and flora to archaeology and air quality. Managing Director Jose Antonio Merino emphasized that the pathway selection was not arbitrary but rather "a result of your environmental impact assessment," with the company's design qualifying for the streamlined DIA process by demonstrating minimal environmental impact.Marimaca's strategic approach centered on designing the project around environmental sensitivities from the outset rather than retrofitting considerations after engineering completion. This methodology, while adding approximately one quarter to the submission timeline, proved instrumental in securing approval. The company also engaged proactively with local communities despite no regulatory mandate, opening dialogue about expectations and concerns that informed the final community engagement plan.The approval arrives amid favorable shifts in Chile's political environment, where Merino noted "more consensus in the Chilean political and regulatory agencies about the importance of economic growth" compared to the environmentalist wave of four to five years ago. CEO Hayden Locke views the timing as optimal, stating that "the next 5 to 10 years in copper is going to be very favorable, and we are coming to market with a new project at exactly the right time."With primary environmental approval secured and remaining sectoral permits considered low-risk, Marimaca has successfully navigated what Locke described as permitting issues that have "delayed junior companies in some cases by two decades," positioning the oxide project for near-term construction commencement.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/marimaca-copperSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
In Part 1, Lee and Paul are joined by Nathan Joyes, a South American football expert and the host of the Copa Club Podcast to talk about some sensational stories from the CONMEBOL nations this season. Why do Chile's new champions Coquimbo Unido have a pirate theme? Which strategic decision helped Mirassol rise from the sixth tier to the brink of the Copa Libertadores? Is there something in the water in Argentina, where underdogs are sweeping up the trophies? And which other South American country deserves a special mention? In Part 2, the focus moves to elsewhere in the southern hemisphere: Oceania. Lee attended the soft launch event for the OFC Pro League, the continent's first-ever professional competition, and has some interesting nuggets to share. Where and when will the OFC Pro League get under way? How will the tournament benefit the Tahiti and Fiji national teams. Is Christchurch United's rebrand as South Island United a good or bad decision? And would South Melbourne theoretically be able to represent Oceania at the Club World Cup?

Sobre la trama oculta tras el crimen que ha conmocionado al país; y el rol de Chile en la cumbre climática internacional que tiene lugar Brasil y con la presencia del Presidente Boric, Iván Valenzuela conversó con las editoras Paula Comandari y Paula Escobar en un nuevo Rat Pack de Mesa Central.
China dio luz verde a su alianza con la empresa estatal chilena Codelco para la extracción del litio en Chile, que resguarda las mayores reservas mundiales del mineral. El visto bueno del regulador antimonopolio del gigante asiático era el último requisito externo, ahora sólo le falta a Chile validar esta alianza que tiene el desafío de conciliar lo económico y lo ambiental. La autorización del país asiático era la última condición necesaria a nivel internacional para materializar la sociedad que permitirá al Estado de Chile ingresar a la explotación del litio. El proyecto inició en 2023, cuando la estatal chilena Codelco anunció la alianza con la empresa privada SQM, que dispone de un cuarto de capital chino. Ahora que recibió el visto bueno del regulador antimonopolio chino, el peso internacional de Chile aumenta a la hora de hablar de nuevas tecnologías. “Para nosotros como Chile, es un mineral estratégico, pero para otros países es un mineral crítico. Esa distinción es importante porque los países lo utilizan en la producción de piezas y parte, por ejemplo, de baterías y en capacidad de almacenamiento. Y a nosotros nos interesa participar en esa discusión a nivel internacional, nos interesa tratar de generar encadenamientos productivos vinculados con el litio, y obviamente buscar asociaciones con aquellos que están llevando adelante esta tecnología, no solamente China, sino también Estados Unidos y muchos países europeos. Creo que es clave en nuestra estrategia de vinculación. Tenemos acuerdos de libre comercio con todos ellos”, explica a RFI el vicepresidente ejecutivo de Corporación de Fomento de la Producción de Chile, José Miguel Benavente. “Puede haber maneras de extracción distintas” Mientras los países ricos piden litio para baterías de autos eléctricos y otros sistemas de almacenamiento de energía renovable, la extracción de este mineral pone en peligro los ecosistemas, como el del Salar de Atacama, que contiene 8,3 millones de toneladas de litio y abastece el 30% de la demanda global. El profesor del Departamento de Ingeniería de Minería de la Universidad de Chile, Emilio Castillo, considera que esta alianza es una oportunidad para una extracción más sostenible: “El hecho de que esté una empresa estatal ayuda a darle validez al modelo. Yo creo que también motiva este resguardo ambiental, que es parte de una estrategia en general, de cómo nosotros pensamos los salares como unidades productivas. Y creo que el cambio fundamental está en decir que puede haber maneras de extracción distintas, que generen impactos menores, más controlados o más mitigados en temáticas ambientales. Y el acuerdo también busca mejorar y aumentar el nivel de producción, aprovechando estas nuevas tecnologías y teniendo más información de cómo puede ser el consumo de agua, el tema energético, pero fundamentalmente el tema del agua con respecto a nuevas técnicas de extracción”, detalla. “Yo creo que el acuerdo trata de balancear todos estos temas, que son temas por sí solo cada uno. Hemos tenido discusiones en Chile para estructurar una estrategia productiva de litio que permita y valide la extracción privada como parte de un modelo de desarrollo”, agrega Castillo. Con esta asociación, Chile recuperaría el liderazgo mundial en la producción de litio, que Australia le arrebató en 2016.
Chile comienza esta semana con la cuenta regresiva ante unas elecciones presidenciales que implican una gran incertidumbre, pues se restituye el voto obligatorio. Y uno de los ejes centrales de estos comicios apunta a las políticas migratorias y el derecho a voto que podrán ejercer aquellos ciudadanos extranjeros que lleven más de cinco años residiendo en el país. En los debates, discursos y programas de los candidatos a la Presidencia de Chile, el tema migratorio aparece como prioritario. La población migrante alcanza un 10% de la población total del país, lo que muchas veces se presenta como una amenaza en discursos xenófobos que se han instalado de manera transversal en el escenario político. El control de la frontera ante todo "Es un discurso centrado en el control de la frontera, asociado a la frontera como un lugar vulnerable por donde penetra el crimen organizado transnacional. Ninguna de las propuestas ha pensado, o al menos en el discurso público, sobre políticas de integración, que es lo que uno esperaría de una mirada estadista", estima María Fernanda Stang, académica en el Centro de Investigación en Ciencias Sociales y Juventud de la Universidad Católica Silva Henríquez. La académica también analiza cómo el voto de los ciudadanos extranjeros residentes en Chile puede influir en los resultados de esta elección, pues comúnmente se relaciona con un voto de derecha liderado por el aumento de la comunidad venezolana. "Bueno, obviamente que eso es una simplificación excesiva. Las personas, primero para poder votar, van a pasar un tiempo en Chile. Durante ese tiempo hay todo un proceso de traducción y del campo político desde el que se viene respecto del campo político en el que uno está llegando. Entonces el clivaje izquierda-derecha, tal como se da en Chile, no es el mismo que ocurre en Venezuela ni en Perú", explica. Un tratamiento "profundamente populista" Alexis Torreblanca es politólogo y coordinador de la plataforma Infomigra, que en redes sociales comparte información y despeja mitos en torno al tema. Según él, "el tratamiento que se le ha dado a la cuestión migratoria ha sido profundamente populista". "Las elecciones antepasadas veíamos que el tema migratorio recién se estaba asomando, y que solamente era utilizado como este mito de que nos íbamos a convertir en Chilezuela. Pero muy a lo lejos no era algo tan presente. Y ahora si revisamos, por ejemplo, los debates presidenciales, vemos que más de la mitad del discurso o de lo que también busca enmarcar los medios de comunicación, giran y se centran en el tema migratorio, dejando de lado todos los otros temas", subraya. Catalina Bosch Carcuro, directora y fundadora de la organización Migrantas, ha vivido en carne propia como persona migrante lo que ella denomina una "utilización" de la clase política. "Como persona migrante siento mucho dolor de cómo se nos utiliza y se nos intenta instrumentalizar en los contextos electorales, en función de esas proyecciones respecto de cómo va a ser el voto mayoritario migrante, y en función de eso hacer el ejercicio de ver si mantengo el derecho o restrinjo el derecho. El ejercicio que debería ser, por último, de tratar de convencer a ese electorado de que tú eres la mejor opción. Es realmente macabra la manera en que se utiliza, cómo se decide y cómo se intenta manipular ese voto migrante", lamenta.

The 365 Days of Astronomy, the daily podcast of the International Year of Astronomy 2009
Dr. Al Grauer hosts. Dr. Albert D. Grauer ( @Nmcanopus ) is an observational asteroid hunting astronomer. Dr. Grauer retired from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock in 2006. travelersinthenight.org From July & August 2025. Today's 2 topics: - 24 hours a day, 16,600 feet above sea level in the high dry desert of northern Chile, the 66 antennas of 1.4 billion dollar Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array or ALMA receives signals located between the infrared and radio portions of the electromagnetic spectrum. The waves that ALMA receives have a length which is about the same as the thickness of a dime. The pattern of present and missing wavelengths in these signals contains the characteristic spectral signatures of the complex molecules that form the basis of living organisms. - Humans are moving towards a day when there are space colonies in orbit, on the Moon, and the planet Mars, places where the force of gravity ranges between zero and 38% of what we experience every day. What effect will such different environments have on the regeneration of liver, skin, and other human body organs?

What can leadership in Formula One teach the rest of us about business transformation? In this episode of the Tech Talks Daily Podcast, I sit down with Seb Sheppard, whose career has taken him from flying helicopters in the Royal Navy to leading engineering teams in Formula One and steering post-merger integrations across multiple industries. His story isn't just one of impressive career shifts but of understanding what truly drives high performance—people, trust, and focus. Seb shares how growing up in Chile and working across different cultures taught him the value of clear communication and empathy in leadership. He explains why protecting technical teams from distractions can often be the most productive thing a leader can do, and how wellbeing initiatives work best when driven by employees themselves rather than top-down policies. Drawing on his time at Alpine F1, he also reveals the delicate balance between cost control and performance improvement, describing how he helped grow the engineering team by a third while staying within strict budget limits. Our conversation also explores the human side of mergers and acquisitions. Seb discusses why integration efforts often fail when companies overlook culture and people, and how proactive communication—long before an announcement is made—can make the difference between success and attrition. He also speaks about the evolving relationship between technology and leadership, explaining how AI can be embraced without losing the human element that drives creativity and trust. If you're a leader facing constant change, this episode is a masterclass in adaptability, humility, and practical wisdom. You'll come away with lessons from both the skies and the racetrack that apply directly to your own teams and projects.

CBS EYE ON THE WORLD WITH JOHN BATCHELOR 11-6-25 THE SHOW BEGINS IN THE DOUBTS ABOUT VENEZUELA. FIRST HOUR 9-915 Anatol Lieven discusses the institutionalization of the Ukraine war, highlighted by children being trained to fly drones in classrooms. This blend of new technology and old societal militarization creates a "bloodless war" perception, potentially making conflict psychologically easier. He also addresses the argument that "stagnating states" are militarizing to maintain power, fueling conflicts and reasserting spheres of influence (a "new economic Monroe Doctrine"). The US is critically involved, enabling Ukrainian targeting capabilities. 915-930 Anatol Lieven discusses the institutionalization of the Ukraine war, highlighted by children being trained to fly drones in classrooms.

He also addresses the argument that "stagnating states" are militarizing to maintain power, fueling conflicts and reasserting spheres of influence (a "new economic Monroe Doctrine"). The US is critically involved, enabling Ukrainian targeting capabilities. 930-945 Chris Riegel discusses how artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics are transforming labor, citing modest IBM layoffs but predicting heavy impacts in large retail. Advanced robotics in Chinese auto manufacturing drives cost efficiency, and AI combined with robotics enhances manufacturing capability. While seeing demand, Riegel notes characteristics of a bubble, especially in wildly overvalued stock prices, fueled by vast investment in AI data centers. In QSRs and retail, AI adoption is driven by efficiency and, in places like California, high minimum wages. 945-1000 Mary Anastasia O'Grady discusses the strong US military presence near Venezuela, intended to pressure dictator Nicolás Maduro to leave. While the opposition (led by elected President González) is ready to govern, the Trump administration hesitates due to security concerns. The major risk is chaos: following Maduro's exit, drug cartels (like Cartel de los Soles) and other groups (like ELN and Tren de Aragua) might fight dissident generals, leading to instability rather than a smooth transition to democracy. SECOND HOUR 10-1015 Joel Finkelstein discusses how the New York election of socialist Zohran Mamdani was influenced by "subnationalism," where foreign nations subvert democracy. Organizations associated with Islamist Maoist ideals and CCP assets (like Neville Roy Singham, who bankrolled a campaign hub) were central to mobilizing votes. On social media, especially Instagram and TikTok, content favorable to Mamdani was given "engineered virality," with over 50% of viral engagement coming from non-American users, suggesting organized foreign intercession. 1015-1030 Ahmad Fouad Alkhatib discusses the high probability of renewed conflict in Gaza, arguing that the ceasefire is fragile due to Hamas's malign intentions. He estimates Hamas's combat-effective forces are significantly lower than reported (3,000 to 5,000, versus 15,000 to 30,000), noting Hamas pays fighters $20 to $25 a day. He also challenges polls showing widespread Gazan support for Hamas, arguing such results are manipulated and defy logic given the catastrophe following October 7. Disarmament is crucial for any future political process. 1030-1045 Ahmad Fouad Alkhatib argues that disarmament must precede any credible political process in Gaza, citing Hamas's use of medical facilities like Shifa and Nasser hospitals for interrogations and military activities. He criticizes Turkey and Qatar for using Hamas as a bargaining chip for regional leverage, suggesting they now posture Hamas as a potential security guarantor against ISIS. Alkhatib also suggests using Private Military Contractors (PMCs) as an enforcement force to actively fight Hamas and secure territory, given diminishing faith in an International Stabilization Force. 1045-1100 Gregg Roman details Turkey and Qatar's strategy to establish regional hegemony across "five fronts" by replacing the Shia Crescent. Turkey, providing military manpower, and Qatar, providing the budget, are active in Gaza, southern Lebanon, Syria, and Djibouti. Their plan includes securing maritime supremacy in the Eastern Mediterranean via an agreement with Libya and extending air power over Syrian airspace. Erdoğan seeks plausible deniability by empowering Syrian jihadis to attack the Golan Heights and is building bases in Djibouti and Somalia. THIRD HOUR 1100-1115 Professor Evan Ellis discusses Argentina's economic stabilization under President Milei, who resisted dollarization by bringing the peso to a stable, free-market rate through aggressive spending cuts and US/IMF support. This success under the new US "economic Monroe Doctrine" sends a strong signal to the Americas, aimed at countering China's rapid expansion. Ellis also reviews US military readiness near Venezuela and political shifts toward the center-right in Bolivia and potentially Chile, though these nations remain economically engaged with China. 1115-1130 Professor Evan Ellis discusses Argentina's economic stabilization under President Milei, who resisted dollarization by bringing the peso to a stable, free-market rate through aggressive spending cuts and US/IMF support.

Ellis also reviews US military readiness near Venezuela and political shifts toward the center-right in Bolivia and potentially Chile, though these nations remain economically engaged with China. FOURTH HOUR 12-1215 Veronique de Rugy critiques the administration's legal argument at the Supreme Court that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) authorizes the President to impose tariffs. She argues the term "emergency" is used too loosely, defining 50 years of trade deficits as an emergency, potentially granting the President immense, unchecked power to tax. Tariffs are taxes, which Congress should control. De Rugy notes tariffs are already causing damage by raising prices for consumers or forcing companies to cut profits and investment. 1215-1230 Alan Tonelson discusses the Supreme Court oral arguments concerning the President's authority to impose tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA). The administration argues the President can invoke IEEPA due to emergencies like fentanyl and trade deficits. Tonelson finds arguments against including tariffs under IEEPA's regulatory language "jaw-dropping." He stresses that the President must have sole control over declaring foreign policy emergencies, necessary for rapid response. If rejected, the President has other longstanding tariffing powers. 1230-1245 Dr. AJ Kolhari discusses Russia's successful test of the nuclear-powered Burevestnik cruise missile, which flew 14,000 km for 15 hours. The missile captures and compresses air, heating it over a nuclear reactor to create thrust. Kolhari emphasizes the danger because it flies low (50 to 100 m) and is hard to detect. He notes this nuclear propulsion technology, or similar ramjet designs, could revolutionize commercial travel and be applied to flight on Mars, using its CO₂ atmosphere for heating. 1245-100 AM Conrad Black discusses Canadian politics and trade, noting a misunderstanding between Prime Minister Carney and Ontario Premier Doug Ford regarding an anti-tariff ad that offended President Trump. Black reports that China's General Secretary Xi has been conciliatory toward both Canada and the US. Crucially, Canada needs pipelines built both east, west (Trans Mountain to Vancouver/Pacific), and south (Keystone XL) to move Alberta's oil. Carney's federal government tentatively agreed to approve a second pipeline to Northern British Columbia.

En este episodio de Relatos de la Noche nos adentraremos en tres experiencias muy distintas entre sí, pero unidas por algo que siempre está presente en estas historias: lo que se mueve silencioso cuando nadie lo está esperando. Viajaremos hasta Nicaragua, donde el encuentro de un joven con una de las temidas “monas brujas” rompe por completo la frontera entre las leyendas y lo real. Una sombra agazapada, un silencio que pesa, y un techo que no debería sonar a esa hora de la noche. La segunda historia nos lleva a una habitación iluminada apenas por la luz de madrugada, donde una hija cansada descubre que tal vez su mamá no estaba tan sola como creía. Entre polvo, luz y figuras imposibles, entenderá que hay presencias que no vienen para asustar… sino para acompañar. Y finalmente, conoceremos el caso más inquietante del episodio: la historia de doña Elvia, una mujer cuya vida estuvo marcada por un deseo imposible… y por algo que siempre la acompañó desde las sombras. Testimonios, documentos, y un final que todavía sigue persiguiendo a quienes lo vivieron. Tres relatos distintos, tres formas de entender lo paranormal, y una sola invitación: apagar la luz, ponerse cómodo, y dejar que estas voces los acompañen esta noche. —
In your final moments, they say, you may walk down a tunnel of light. You might rise above your body, watching the scene below before passing into another world. Perhaps you'll be met by glowing figures, see your life flash before your eyes, or feel a deep, unearthly calm. These are the stories of people who've reached the edge of death and returned. They're not rare, nor random, and they have a name: Near-Death Experiences. CrowdScience listener Steven in Chile first heard of them during a CPR class and wondered, are they fictitious? Psychologist Susan Blackmore once had an out-of-body experience as a student in Oxford, UK — floating above herself before soaring over the rooftops and dissolving into the universe. That single moment changed everything. She's spent her career trying to understand what happened, and she believes such experiences are explainable. At the University of Michigan in the US, neuroscientist Professor Jimo Borjigin has done what few have dared: record the dying brain in action. Her studies show that even after the heart stops, the brain can produce powerful surges of coordinated activity, bursts that might explain the lights, the tunnels, and the sense of peace. She believes Near-Death Experiences could become one of science's most intriguing scientific frontiers for research into consciousness. At University College London in the UK, neuroscientist Dr Christopher Timmermann is exploring similar states using psychedelics, pushing the boundaries between self and oblivion to identify what induces a near death experience and what we can learn about our consciousness along the way. Near death experiences, a paranormal mystery or explainable phenomenon?
