Stijn Schmitz welcomes Jeff Phillips to the show. Jeff Phillips is Private Investor & President, Global Market Development. Phillips discusses his extensive experience in the natural resource market, having witnessed three bull markets over his 30-year career. He believes the current market may be entering a significant commodity super cycle driven by multiple factors, including currency devaluation, under-investment in resource exploration, and geopolitical shifts toward securing strategic mineral supplies. Phillips emphasizes two critical criteria when investing in junior mining companies: structure and people. He looks for companies where management owns a significant portion of shares and has a proven track record of success. The ideal investment, in his view, involves well-structured companies with experienced leadership who have previously built or sold successful ventures. His investment strategy focuses on commodities like gold, silver, copper, uranium, and rare earth elements. Phillips is particularly interested in jurisdictions like North America and parts of South America, avoiding regions with high political risk. He sees emerging trends of tech companies and governments increasingly investing in mineral supply chains, which he believes will drive the resource super cycle. Phillips cautions that the junior mining sector is extremely high-risk and not suitable for most investors. He recommends a disciplined approach, including maintaining a focused portfolio of 8-14 carefully selected positions and seeking advice from experienced professionals. His investment philosophy centers on finding companies with potential to develop tier-one assets and create meaningful value. The interview highlights Phillips' belief that successful speculation in the junior mining space requires understanding company structure, management quality, and geological potential. He advises investors to conduct thorough research, seek expert guidance, and remember the industry adage: "The best way to make a small fortune in the junior mining sector is to start with a large fortune."

We've done episodes where people lose their teeth. We've done episodes where have them melted out of their heads, or frisbeed out by debris, or punched out by bulls, or even blown out of their heads by lightning. But we've never done an episode where the most horrifying thing that happens is you maybe get something stuck in them.On this episode: we'll take off on one of the least enviable flights in history – which is saying a lot; we'll learn just what staggeringly awful places hunger can take an underfed mind even when the only menu option is freeze-dried human buttock; and we'll end up with one of the most excruciating and difficult mountain hikes ever conducted, wearing little more than a tennis outfit.And if you were listening on Patreon… you would see which popular sport tops the list for most spinal and testicular injuries; you'd hear every mouth-watering detail of the most filling and calorically-dense item on any menu, anywhere in the world; and you would learn how the survivor of a lifeboat full of man-on-man nom nom inspired one of the greatest pieces of American literature ever scribed.This episode was created as a thank you for a special listener who asked to remain nameless and over extended themselves to help me out of a jam. Technically, all my episodes are thank you episodes for the people who help support the show, and a gift to every casual listener who's ever had to treat a goring wound, or a flaming oil burn, or patch a cartoonish hole burnt through them by volcanic projectiles.I make a point in this episode that one of the last times we visited South America together, we got irradiated, and how difficult it is to replace an entire audience after you accidentally murder the last one. It's my way of saying thank you for listening, and for today's special listener – 50-60 hours of painstaking work is maybe the best way I know how to say thank you and show the depth of my appreciation.I've heard people describe this tale as extraordinary, but that's not nearly a good enough word to explain what happened. You have any idea how deep you have to dig to refuse to surrender in spite of all this and having the whole world seemingly abandoned you? And even more than that, can you understand how profound the details of your story have to be to completely overshadow make people forget about all the cannibalism?

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1152: Today we're talking Hyundai and GM's detailed game plan for their collab, Stellantis' new EV tech that sheds weight and adds power,, and why Americans are going bigger than ever on Halloween—even with higher prices haunting their budgets.Show Notes with links:Hyundai and GM's strategic collaboration will co-develop five vehicles aimed at growing their presence in the Americas while containing costs in a tightening market.The partnership kicks off in 2028 with an electric commercial van for North America and expands to include a compact crossover, sedan, and two pickups for Central and South America.Initial volumes are expected to hit 100,000 units, with a long-term goal of reaching 800,000 annual sales.Each company will “donate” specific models: Hyundai leads the electric van and compact vehicles, while GM heads development of midsize pickups.The duo will lean into shared logistics, propulsion systems, and battery supply chains to drive efficiency.“We are not going to mix everything to try to do a hybrid — that is not going to work. There is a donor and a receiver of a particular product.” said Hyundai CEO Jose Muñoz.Stellantis is rolling out its new Intelligent Battery Integrated System (IBIS)—a breakthrough powertrain innovation that could redefine EV architecture by baking the charger and inverter directly into the battery pack.IBIS cuts vehicle weight by about 40 kg and frees 17 liters of space, boosting aerodynamics and interior design options.The system improves energy efficiency by up to 10%, slashes charging times by 15%, and delivers 15% more power with no added battery size.Developed in partnership with Saft, Sherpa Engineering, and others, IBIS simplifies servicing and enhances battery reuse for second-life applications.A fully functional prototype is now on the road in a Peugeot E-3008 riding on Stellantis' STLA Medium platform.Consumers may be bracing for price hikes, but that's not stopping them from going big on Halloween this year—with spending expected to hit a record $13.1 billion.Top categories: $4.3B on costumes, $4.2B on decorations, and $3.9B on candy.Per-person spend is also at an all-time high: $114.45, up nearly $11 from last year.79% of shoppers expect higher prices due to tariffs, yet 73% still plan to celebrate.Pets aren't left out—$860M will be spent dressing them up as pumpkins, hot dogs, and bumblebees.Top costumes? Kids are going with Spider-Man, princesses, and witches; adults favor witches, vampires, and pirates.0:00 Intro with Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier1:00 Big Announcement on 10.011:25 Announcements2:02 Hyundai and GM To Launch 5 Co-Developed Vehicles5:25 Stellantis' New EV Tech Means Lighter Batteries and Faster Charging10:20 Halloween Spending To Hit $4Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

#816 Show Notes: https://wetflyswing.com/816 Presented By: Pescador on the Fly, Jackson Hole Fly Company, TroutRoutes, Intrepid Camp Gear Sponsors: http://wetflyswing.com/sponsors Cuba has long carried a sense of mystery for travelers, and when you put a fly rod in your hand, that mystery only deepens. In this episode, Jon Covich talks about chasing bonefish, tarpon, and permit on the Cuban flats, the realities of travel restrictions, and how the culture of the island is just as important as the fish. Jon shares what it's like to guide and host trips through World Fly LLC, why South America deserves more attention from anglers, and the practical lessons you need before booking a saltwater trip. The conversation drifts between history, people, gear, and stories that remind us why fishing new water is about far more than checking a species off a list. Show Notes: https://wetflyswing.com/816

The impact of Charlie Kirk's assassination has been felt far wider and deeper than many expected. Tributes have sprung up around the globe — from the UK and Australia to South Africa, Europe, South America, and Asia. Yet much of the media first misinformed the public and then tried to push the “both sides are violent” narrative, while thousands of online leftists cheered his death and desecrated memorials. What does this say about the moral health of our institutions — and the people shaping public opinion?Speaking of what's wrong with our institutions: this week The Heartland Institute received a letter from Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) clearly intended to bully. He's demanding that by September 30 Heartland hand over any and all communications since Election Day 2024 discussing why the Endangerment Finding for carbon dioxide should be rescinded — after reports that Heartland influenced the Trump administration's decision to attempt that rescission. Heartland President James Taylor has a simple reply: pound sand.Join Linnea Lueken, Jim Lakely, S.T. Karnick, and James Taylor as they break down the media spin, the moral rot, and Sen. Whitehouse's fishing expedition on Episode #511 of the In the Tank Podcast. Tune in LIVE at 1 p.m. ET and join the live chat on YouTube, Rumble, Facebook, and X.

In this episode, we welcome Martin Suarez and Ian Frisch to the show. Martin worked as an FBI Special Agent for 23 years. He holds the record for the most time spent continuously undercover, and has infiltrated criminal organizations across the United States, Europe, Asia, Central and South America, and the Caribbean. He is a six-time recipient of the FBI's Special Achievement Award, a four-time recipient of the Department of Justice's Outstanding Law Enforcement Officer of the Year Award, and received the Federal Law Enforcement Officers Association Lifetime Achievement Award. He retired from the FBI in 2011. Ian has written for The New Yorker, the New York Times, New York magazine, and Esquire, among many other publications. They combined to write the new book “Inside the Cartel: How an Undercover FBI Agent Smuggled Cocaine, Laundered Cash, and Dismantled a Colombian Narco-Empire”. In this interview, we discuss why he was chosen to work undercover for the FBI, how he got into smuggling drugs, how he began to infiltrate Colombian drug cartels, the time when the cartel asked him to smuggle $500,000,000 worth of cocaine into the US, what it was like switching back and forth between his true identity and his altar ego, the time when he was out to dinner with his wife and he ran into a cartel member, the difference between drug smuggling and money laundering, how he determined when to wear a wire, when he thought he had been made by the cartel, when a sicario came to his house to kill him after the investigation had closed, and much more.

This is the Progress Powering Tomorrow. Allen Hall: Ed0o and Soren, welcome to the program.  Edo Kuipers: Thank you very much. Thank you both. Allen Hall: We have some really exciting news from you, from the field, but first I, I want to start with the problem, which. A lot of operators have right now, which is this blade root, bushing it in or insert issue, which is really critical to blades and you're the creator of the device that's gonna save a lot of blades. You want to talk about what happens? When these blade root bushings fail?  Edo Kuipers: Uh, yeah. What we have seen is that it especially concerns, um, uh, polyester type of blades. And what we see is that, um, bushings and, and, and composites, they are not attached to each other anymore. And after a [00:01:00] while, blades are simply flying off. That's the, that's the whole, that's the whole problem. Of course. And now going back to the root cause, the root cause here is we are working with, with foes and. The fact is that if you're working with polyesters, they already have, um, at the, uh, uh, during the process, the curing process, they have already curing shrinkages. So we have already curing shrinkages, which means we have already initial micro flagging going on, on the interface between the bushing and, and, and, and the limited around it. And that reduces, that reduces the um, surface. Carrying area. And by doing so, because we have less area, surface area that can transfer the loads from the hub, um, from the blades to the hub, eh, we have limited amount of, of years on running. So we are reducing, uh, the, the amount of years [00:02:00] that the blades are on the, on the, on the turbine safely.  Joel Saxum: This problem is compounding right now simply because there's a lot of the global wind turbine fleet that's starting to age. Right. Like we, we, we went through a big push in, you know, the early two thousands, 2000 tens, 2000 twenties to now where, you know, if you look at the country of Spain, we hear that regularly, Alan is, Hey, we're getting to the end of life. We're close to the end of life. Then there's people saying, what is the remaining useful life? Where are we at? Um, and this is one of those issues where. It can develop rapidly, right? So if there's an issue, you can, if you catch it in time, great. You're good. But it can develop rapidly and that can lead to catastrophic losses. But I guess my, one of the questions I want to ask you, and you guys of course have done some commercial here. Uh, how many turbines do you think are affected by this globally affected by this root bushing issues?  Edo Kuipers: Oh, that's a good one. If I, if I talk a number of blades at the moment, we are more or less at a ball point figure about 30, [00:03:00] 40,000. Blades. Wow. Worldwide. So we see many us, we see many in South America and we see also in Southeast Asia, like India. And those blades are running, let's say from 10 years, 12 years, and some of them also after six years,  Allen Hall: and a lot of manufacturing. Uh, blades happens in multiple sites, right? So if you have a particular OEM wind turbine,

A Fresh Approach to Immigration Reform -"Trump, Tamales and the American Family" by Margaret DonnellyMargaret Donnelly, emeritus attorney at law of Texas, certified in immigration and nationality law, proposes in her fifth book, Trump, Tamales and the American Family, that it's time to smash our culture of fear and follow the example of our World War II Greatest Generation, who built economies, exporting peace and prosperity throughout the world. Donnelly also suggests that we should invest in our American family--a family tree with roots and branches that stretch from the top of North America to the bottom of South America. It's time to join each other in a metaphorical kitchen, sharing resources and labor to produce a sacred meal, tamales, together, just as extended families of the Americas have been doing for ten thousand years. President Donald J. Trump--the Great Negotiator--is invited to this dinner table to remind him that he can help us move beyond a border wall toward a great transformation of the Americas.Margaret Donnelly is the author of "Bolívar's Heart", "The Path of Lord Jaguar", "The Spirits of Venezuela" and "The Song of the Goldencocks", which received Honorable Mention at the 2007 International Latino Book Awards in New York. The author received her doctor of jurisprudence and her bachelor of arts in Latin American studies from the University of Texas at Austin. In recognition for her community work, she was awarded the Presidential Community Service medal by the League of United Latin American Citizens of the United States (LULAC) in 2006. Born in Venezuela, she moved to the United States with her family at age 15.

But this Thick-billed Euphonia, a tiny songbird in South America, employs what scientists call “deceitful mimicry.” When frightened by a predator near its nest, a Thick-billed Euphonia imitates the alarm calls of other birds nesting nearby. This stirs them into action as they rush in to harass the predator. The euphonia, meanwhile, sits tight while others do the dirty work.¡Escuche este episodio en español aquí!More info and transcript at BirdNote.org.Want more BirdNote?

Episode 79 - Murdock and Marvel: 2010 Part 2 2010 is an odd year in a lot of ways.  It was quiet, but not in a “before the storm” way.  More in a “putt your head down and get to work” sense.  Great comics were made, and big things were happening mostly under the surface. This is part 2 of the podcast. that will feature the year in Daredevil, the Spotlight story and the Takeaway for 2010.   The Year in Daredevil  Appearances: Daredevil #502-512, Shadowland #1-5, Shadowland After the Fall #1, Daredevil: Cage Match #1, Daredevil Black & White #1, New Avengers #59-60, New Avengers Annual #3, What If?

Meanwhile, Foggy and Becky win a case against some corrupt cops only to have the judge throw out the verdict which outrages Foggy, and he gets arrested for contempt of court and loses his law license.   Daredevil orders the construction of Shadowland – a Japanese Style fortress to be constructed on the site of the building explosion caused by Bullseye that killed 107 protesters in the The List at the end of 2009. It is to be the headquarters of the Hand in NYC.   Tensions escalate as Kingpin sends Lady Bullseye to infiltrate and assassinate both police officers and H.A.M.M.E.R. agents to cause chaos and a reaction. Which it does as Norman Osborn responds by deploying a full H.A.M.M.E.R. unit to Hell's Kitchen, which causes Daredevil to launch a declaration of war against the police, triggering a full-scale battle. At the end of The Devil's Hand, Matt travels to Japan to deal with important matters involving the Hand, so he leaves Black Tarantula in charge of the city and takes White Tiger with him.  Next in story “Left Hand Path” we see Matt in Japan hoping to unite the other leaders of the Hand. However, Bakuto, the Daimyo of South America, causes trouble. The other leaders seem to be conspiring against him. Despite their differences, Matt saves Bakuto from an attack and we learn Snakeroot has co-opted White Tiger to aid in the very intricate plans for Murdock and Shadowland back in New York City.   We return back to New York and the start of Shadowland, the big crossover event that goes into the Hand's plans for New York and Murdock ultimately, falling prey to them. This story was too big for just the Daredevil title and spawned its own limited series that needed to be read to understand what was going on in the Daredevil title. Those books along with a wrap up book entitled After the Fall while be our spotlight for this week. Buckle up everyone, you're in for a ride...  This Week's Spotlight: Daredevil #508 September 2010 “Shadowland Part 1” through Daredevil #512 February 2011 “Shadowland Final Issue” plus Shadowland #1 September 2010 “Shadowland Part 1 of 5” through Shadowland #5 January 2011 “Shadowland Part 5” and Shadowland After the Fall #1 February 2011.

An international tribunal of environmental rights activists recently found extensive evidence that the Canadian mining sector is “guilty for the violation of Rights of Nature across South America and Serbia.” The guest on this episode of Mongabay's podcast corroborates these accusations, and describes human rights abuses in South American nations that she has seen in her reporting, too. Brandi Morin, a Cree-Iroquois-French environmental journalist and freelancer for Mongabay, discusses how Canadian mining projects impact ecological health and the rights of Indigenous communities in places such as Ecuador and Bolivia. “Canada is the mining giant of the world, and around the world, they're getting away with atrocities. They aren't regulated very well to hold them to account. It's a free-for-all out there,” she says. Find the Mongabay Newscast wherever you listen to podcasts, from Apple to Spotify. All past episodes are also listed here at the Mongabay website.

“AI is a break point for everybody, not only in Latin America, but the entire world. We need to relearn technology—and keep learning,” says Annerys Rosario, founder of NextGen AI Business Consulting. At the MSP Summit in Orlando, Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, spoke with Rosario about her mission to help organizations strengthen leadership, streamline operations, and embrace AI transformation. Based in Miami, she brings a unique dual focus: guiding companies through AI adoption while addressing the technology gap across Latin American and Hispanic markets. Rosario explained that what sets her apart is a hands-on, bilingual approach. Rather than simply advising on tools, she works alongside businesses, learning the technologies they implement to deliver deeper support. This personalized approach allows her to train teams in both English and Spanish, making AI more accessible to communities that have traditionally been underserved in the technology space. With a background in broadcasting and years of experience in the Hispanic industry, Rosario is now channeling her expertise into expanding AI adoption across Central America, South America, and the Caribbean. She sees AI not as an option, but as a necessity for businesses everywhere to remain competitive and prosperous. Learn more by connecting with Annerys Rosario on LinkedIn.

 The killing of Cecil the lion by Walter Palmer in 2015 showed there are a handful of people who occasionally kill an animal for kicks, right?Wrong!20,000 endangered animals were shot by trophy hunters last year. The total figure is closer to 100,000 animals if you include unprotected species. And this number does not count animals shot by people in their own country.Safari Club International (SCI) is the world's largest trophy hunting group. In the past few years, it has handed out 20,000 prizes to members who have shot lots of animals. They include hundreds of winners of its Hunting Achievement Award who each killed over 125 different animals.SCI keeps a Record Book of the biggest animals killed by its members. There are 200,000 entries. You can buy hunting holidays on the internet to shoot any animal on the planet. If you fancy ‘big game' hunting in Africa, there are lions, elephants, rhinos, and hippos. If you prefer ‘plains game,' then you can choose a giraffe, zebra, leopard or even a cheetah.If North America is where you would like to go, you can shoot polar bears and moose. Or pumas and capybara in South America. Some people enjoy flying ‘down under.' Why not shoot camels and wallabies while you are there? The US has ranches where you can shoot zebras, kangaroos, and animals that have been hunted to extinction in the wild. There are beavers, reindeer, and seals for sale in Europe. Asian wild goats and sheep. If you go to Texas, you can even shoot wild pigs from a helicopter ... using a machine gun. Some go with their loved ones. There are father and son breaks, mother and daughter shooting trips. Fancy using a bow and arrow? There are bowhunting-only estates. And companies that specialize in shooting animals with revolvers. Many hunting companies advertise on the internet. Try googling ‘polar bear outfitter.' Or ‘lion hunting safari.' Or just ‘sheep hunting.'There are thousands of hunting holiday companies in the world today. They sell hunting package holidays for almost any species. Safari Club International's list of ‘eligible' animals covers over nine hundred species and sub-species, including endangered animals such as black rhinos, and animals you may never have heard of. Hunting companies offer dozens more species not on SCI's list, such as zebras, giraffes, monkeys, baboons. Google ‘safari hunting price list.'In “Shoot 1 Lion Get 1 Free” you will meet the owners of dozens of the world's top hunting companies, see the animals they have for sale, and learn what their customers think of it.“Shoot 1 Lion Get 1 Free" is a genuine offer promoted by a hunting company in Africa.This is a Trophy Hunting Book Trilogy:“Twenty Elephants in Seventy-Five Minutes,”“Shoot One Lion – Get One Free” & “Mainlining on Heroin" https://www.amazon.com/Shoot-One-Lion-Hunting-Industry/dp/B0FCXR6BCY#:~:text=His%20new%20trilogy%20%2D%20%22Twenty%20Elephants,sport'%2C%20selfies%20and%20souvenirs.http://www.yourlotandparcel.org

When everything is perfectly organized—routes mapped, fuel stops planned, meals and beds guaranteed—it feels effortless. But the truth is, no matter how tidy the plan, the real world always gets a vote. On short rides, those small interruptions are easy to patch over. Stretch the miles across countries and weeks on the road, though, and the little things start to compound. That's when the first casualty is usually the plan—and what comes next is called the adventure.In this 2017 story, a dozen experienced riders set out to cross South America from Cartagena to Ushuaia, equipped with skills, support vehicles, and a clear plan. But tropical rain, border red tape, shock absorbers that cried uncle, and Patagonian winds forced them to adapt. The journey didn't unfold the way they mapped it—but that's the point. What carries a long trip isn't a perfect plan; it's the flexibility to rewrite it.

Micah has taken a long winding path to get to mortgage lending. But each curve in the road has helped define who he is today. His journey started with a focus on dedication and resilience as a Division 1 distance runner at the University of Colorado. Through that high level physical endeavor, he learned that every goal, no matter how big, is achievable. Even if it's taking things one mile, or one step at a time. His next chapter took him to California, where over 15 years, he worked to navigate the fast-paced world of television production in Hollywood. There he learned to think creatively and solve problems on the fly, in the fast-paced pressure cooker environment of the television industry. Along the way, he hit the road on a solo trek on his motorcycle, and spent 3 months riding from California, through Mexico, through every Central American country, on a boat to South America, and then down to Peru. This journey showed him a humanity in all people through experiences along the way. Now, he channels that same drive and creativity into the home loan and lending process. He sees every client's situation not as a problem, but as a unique puzzle just waiting to be solved.Micah's energy is infectious, and has a true passion for adding value and pouring into others.

But Charles Darwin spent four years studying other birds as well, as the Beagle circumnavigated southern South America before reaching the Galapagos in 1835. It was not just the birds, but a lifetime of attending to all the wild things in his path that brought Darwin to his great idea.More info and transcript at BirdNote.org.Want more BirdNote?

The lethal U.S. military strike on a speedboat in the Caribbean was more about putting on a show than countering the drug trade out of South America. And it's not even clear that the people killed on the boat were running drugs, or that any contraband was bound for America. Meanwhile, if senators are truly concerned that local police departments are insufficiently staffed, then they should pass a bill to fund more officers instead of pushing the charade that Guard troops can legally do police work. Plus, Russia is running out of ammunition, Ashli Babbitt was no hero, and a dissection of Trump's fatuous 'seven wars' lie. Lt. Gen.

Get ready for an unflinching dive into the world of drug enforcement on this episode of the Mike Ritland Podcast, featuring Wes Tabor—a 35-year law enforcement veteran who spent over two decades with the DEA, operating across the United States, Central America, and South America. With stints embedded alongside the CIA and authorship credits for his eye-opening book Infiltrate America (plus the upcoming Beyond Blurry Lines set for next summer), Wes doesn't hold back as he recounts the brutal realities of his career. Mike and Wes dismantle pop culture myths about DEA agents—no, it's not all black fatigues and window-storming raids. Instead, Wes paints a picture of tedious investigations that turn spy-like overseas, while admitting the agency often fails at public messaging, leaving misconceptions about their focus (hint: they weren't chasing small-time weed dealers, but multi-ton shipments of cocaine and heroin from cartels in Venezuela, Colombia, and Mexico). He pulls no punches on DEA leadership, calling out bureaucratic inertia, "latte commandos," and a culture that stifles real change, drawing parallels to issues plaguing the FBI, ATF, and even the military. Tune in for a masterclass in resilience from a guy who's seen it all—and isn't afraid to call it like it is. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
