Rescue workers have been attempting to reach suvivors of a powerful earthquake that hit the Indonesian island of Flores in the early hours of Saturday morning. Around fifty people have died and some five thousand have been evacuated from their homes.Also: Israel has carried out its deadliest strikes in Lebanon for months killing eleven people. Moroccan police stopped hundreds of people from illegally crossing into Spain's North African territory of Ceuta, two weeks after tens of thousands entered the exclave. International observers of Zambia's election have told political parties to tone down inflammatory statements, saying the poll was marred by intimidation, abductions and an hours-long pause in the vote count. The Spanish government has ordered an investigation into the likely shooting of an endangered killer whale that was captured on video with wounds to its dorsal fin. The nineteen year old British cyclist Fin Tarling has died in a crash during the Tour of Portugal race. The Miss Universe Canada pageant is introducing a ''comprehensive costume guide'' after a row triggered by two contestants wearing Indigenous-style costumes.The Global News Podcast brings you the breaking news you need to hear, as it happens.

Jeff Bliss: California is currently contending with an early start to the wildfire season, a period dubbed Dirty August by experts. Jeff Bliss highlights three major blazes: the Timber Fire, the Bug Fire, and the MP 18 Fire. The Timber Fire in Monterey County has burned 5,600 acres and remains only 15 percent contained; its location along Highway 1 threatens picturesque tourist destinations such as Monterey and Carmel, creating significant infrastructure and tourism challenges. In contrast, the Bug Fire on the California-Nevada border is much larger at 95,000 acres but has reached a more stable 76 percent containment, a federal effort using specialized crews including smokejumpers and teams from Indigenous reservations. A newer threat, the MP 18 Fire in Humboldt County, is currently 14 percent contained, and its rugged, hilly topography near the Oregon border makes it difficult to access, likely requiring a massive mutual aid response involving resources from Oregon, Nevada, and California. Current environmental factors are heightening the danger, as steep canyons serve as chimneys that rapidly funnel flames upward through dense vegetation fueled by previous rains. Additionally, the super El Niño year presents a double-edged sword; while it can bring heat-inducing high-pressure systems that dry out the coast, the subsequent heavy rains on scorched terrain often trigger catastrophic mudslides and flooding. Firefighting agencies are mobilizing resources from across the United States and Canada to manage these unpredictable threats. (1)
In this episode of We're Still Here, John welcomes back the insightful duo of Simon Moya Smith, an Oglala Lakota and Chicano journalist, and Julie Francella, a seasoned mental health professional specializing in Indigenous youth and families. Together, they dive into the recent political triumph of Peggy Flanagan, who has secured the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate in Minnesota. They discuss the significance of her potential historic win as the first Native woman in the Senate and the broader implications for Indigenous representation in U.S. politics.Simon and Julie reflect on the importance of Indigenous values in governance, emphasizing the need for more Indigenous voices in leadership roles. They explore the ongoing struggles faced by Indigenous communities, particularly in relation to the construction of the border wall by federal contractors on sacred lands. The conversation highlights the tension between tribal sovereignty and federal authority, illustrating how these issues impact Indigenous peoples and their rights to their ancestral lands.As the discussion unfolds, they tackle cultural appropriation in the context of the Miss Universe Canada pageant, where contestant Ashley Colling Bull boldly confronted the pageant officials over inappropriate representations of Indigenous culture. The trio emphasizes the difference between cultural appreciation and appropriation, advocating for respectful representation and the need for Indigenous voices in all narratives surrounding their cultures.Listeners are invited to engage in this enlightening conversation, as John, Simon, and Julie take calls from the audience, addressing everything from Indigenous languages to personal experiences with nature and spirituality. This episode is a powerful reminder of the resilience of Indigenous communities and the importance of representation in all aspects of society.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Full episode description What might become possible if you stopped keeping an escape route—and devoted yourself completely to what you love? In this intimate and poetic conversation, Michael sits down with bestselling poet and author Allie Michelle, whose work explores love, loss, creativity, lineage, and the courage to remain fully human. Allie shares the moment she closed her businesses and committed herself entirely to writing—only to receive an unexpected book offer from HarperCollins. As she describes it: “You chose your art, and your art chose you back.” Together, Michael and Allie explore what it means to create in an age of constant distraction; why boredom may be the birthplace of art; and how the parts of ourselves we suppress often return through the people we love. Allie reflects on walking the Camino de Santiago without her phone, becoming “Freedom Wolf,” and moving from being a writer holding a pen to becoming “a pen in life's hand.” They also journey through the unsent words we carry, the courage required to keep the heart open, the wisdom of lineage, and the beauty of making something no one may ever witness—from a pianist playing alone in a forest to an Indigenous flower blessing offered at sunrise. This is a conversation about burning the boats, letting failure deepen the work, loving people beyond our projections, and singing your song even—and especially—when no one is listening. In this episode: Why distraction is the death of art and boredom its birthplace The danger of living like a personal brand How to recognize the work that is truly calling you What Allie learned from a samurai master Burning the boats and abandoning your escape routes Why failure is a comma, not a period The connection between suppressed identity and romantic attraction Reclaiming the wild, “feral” parts of ourselves The practice of identifying your unsent letters Creating as an offering rather than a performance Why sensitivity can become an artist's greatest instrument Honoring endings, impermanence, and the many lives we live Allie closes the episode with a breathtaking poem imagining a life lived in reverse—a reminder to find magic in the ordinary and return to the only moment we ever truly possess: Just here. Just now. Just this. Featured book: Don't Forget to Light the Candles by Allie Michelle. Michael Trainer has spent 30 years learning from Nobel laureates, neuroscientists, and wisdom keepers worldwide. He's the author of RESONANCE: The Art and Science of Human Connection (March 31, 2026), co-creator of Global Citizen and the Global Citizen Festival, and host of the RESONANCE podcast.Featured in Forbes, Inc, Good Morning America.

What if food is doing far more than providing calories, protein, carbohydrates, and fat? What if every bite is actually delivering information to your genes, cells, microbiome, and biological systems? In this fascinating solo episode, Darin challenges the century-old idea of viewing food simply as fuel and explores what happens when we begin seeing food as biological information. From carrots resembling eyes and walnuts resembling brains to nutrigenomics, plant compounds, biophotons, structured water, living enzymes, and the microbiome, Darin dives into the hidden layers of food that never appear on a nutrition label. He explores established research alongside emerging and controversial areas of science, explaining why the freshness, color, diversity, and wholeness of what we eat may matter far beyond its calorie count. Darin also reveals why "eating the rainbow" is really about consuming a wider library of chemical information and why feeding your gut microbes may be just as important as feeding yourself. This episode will completely change the way you look at what's sitting on your plate. What You'll Learn Why Darin believes the calorie model leaves out some of food's most important biological effects How nutrients and plant compounds can influence gene expression through nutrigenomics and epigenetics Why Darin describes every meal as sending a "memo" to your DNA What biophotons are and the emerging research around light emitted by living cells and foods Why fresh, living foods may carry information that heavily processed foods have lost The theory of structured or "exclusion zone" water in living foods What happens to naturally occurring enzymes when foods are heated and processed Why the colors of fruits and vegetables correspond to different families of protective plant compounds How your food communicates with the trillions of microbes living inside your gut Why dietary diversity and fermented foods may help create a healthier, more resilient microbiome Chapters 00:00:00 – Welcome to SuperLife 00:00:32 – Sponsor: Bite 00:02:47 – The hidden clues sitting inside your food 00:03:22 – Carrots, tomatoes, and walnuts: coincidence or clues? 00:04:13 – Why we've been too busy counting calories 00:04:39 – Food is information 00:04:47 – Why the calorie model leaves out the bigger picture 00:05:14 – Your body isn't a furnace 00:05:48 – How food communicates with your cells 00:06:25 – Nutrigenomics: how food talks to your genes 00:06:53 – Every meal can influence gene expression 00:07:22 – What memo are you sending your DNA? 00:07:52 – The strange science of biophotons 00:09:03 – Why fresh food emits different light than processed food 00:09:37 – Where biophoton research stands scientifically 00:10:26 – Structured water and the fourth phase of water 00:12:00 – What processing may do to water inside food 00:12:37 – Sponsor: Manna Vitality 00:14:35 – The controversial theory of food enzymes 00:15:18 – What we know about enzymes in raw and sprouted foods 00:15:37 – The hidden information missing from nutrition labels 00:15:58 – Can the color of your food unlock your potential? 00:16:16 – Why "eat the rainbow" is chemistry, not mysticism 00:16:38 – Anthocyanins and the power of purple, red, and blue foods 00:17:27 – Color is the plant's natural label 00:18:20 – Every color sends your body a different message 00:18:50 – The problem with the modern "beige diet" 00:19:14 – You're feeding 38 trillion microbes, not just yourself 00:19:46 – How gut bacteria transform fiber into powerful compounds 00:20:25 – The extraordinary conversation between plants and your microbiome 00:21:05 – Why plant diversity matters for immunity, mood, and hormones 00:21:31 – The Stanford fermented food study 00:22:02 – What fermented foods did to microbiome diversity and inflammation 00:22:30 – Ultra-processed food, inflammation, and what's coming next 00:22:45 – Continue the full deep dive on Patreon 00:23:24 – Closing thoughts Thank You to Our Sponsors Bite Toothpaste: Go to trybite.com/DARIN20 or use code DARIN20 for 20% off your first order Manna Vitality: Go to mannavitality.com/ and use code DARIN12 for 12% off your order.

Every bite carries information—through nutrients, plant compounds, color, fiber, enzymes, and the interactions it creates with your microbiome. Your body isn't simply counting calories; it's responding to biological signals. So the question isn't only how much you're eating. It's what message you're sending your body every time you sit down to eat." Bibliography/Sources: Food as Information & Nutrigenomics Dutton, R. (2017). Hey, Hippocrates: Food isn't medicine.

What an episode. This time we go back to the 1830's when America had lied to the Indigenous People of America, forced them to sign removal treaties, even though the Supreme Court had just declared that the Cherokee were a sovereign culture. Indigenous people were rounded up, often at gunpoint, taken with just the clothes on their backs in many cases and marched thousands of miles into what would come to be called 'Indian Territory', a land where the tribes had to start over from scratch and rebuild everything that had been taken away from them. We cover why these cultures were so mistreated and maligned,. how they were lied to and manipulated and just how brutal these death marches were in this we really wish this hadn't happened episode of the Family Plot Podcast.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/family-plot--4670465/support.

Bioneers: Revolution From the Heart of Nature | Bioneers Radio Series
To transform our culture from its focus on dominance and hierarchy to one of connection, empathy and collaboration, it's vital that we re-envision the essential (or archetypal) masculine, which changes everything. This rarely tackled topic is the subject of a deeply authentic dialogue among Playwright and activist V, formerly Eve Ensler and and four men working to transform our collective story around men and masculinity: Tony Porter, co-founder of the national violence prevention organization A Call To Men, Indigenous activist Dallas Goldtooth, George Lipsitz, Black Studies scholar and professor emeritus at UC Santa Barbara; and Luke Charles Harris, co-founder of the African American Policy Forum. This is an episode of the Bioneers: Revolution from the Heart of Nature series. Visit the radio and podcast homepage to learn more.
Oregon became the thirty-third state on February 14, 1859, but its history reaches far beyond statehood. Indigenous peoples had lived throughout the region long before Europeans arrived, with communities and traditions tied to the coast, forests, mountains, and rivers. One of the earliest documented European explorations of what is now Oregon came in 1543, when Bartolomé Ferrelo continued north along the Pacific Coast on an expedition begun by Juan Rodríguez Cabrillo. Over the centuries that followed, Spain, Britain, and the United States all claimed interests in the Pacific Northwest. The United States and Great Britain agreed to jointly occupy the Oregon Country in 1818, and the Oregon Treaty of 1846 established the boundary between American and British territory. Oregon Territory was organized in 1848, followed by statehood eleven years later. With forests that seem to go on forever, a rugged coastline, isolated lakes, old hotels, and communities with stories passed down for generations, Oregon has produced some wonderfully strange folklore. There are mysterious creatures, sea serpents, ghosts, and at least one monster who apparently decided that simply being a monster wasn't interesting enough. He needed a name...

Today on the Plant Cunning Podcast we welcome Madison Murphy Barney—doula, two-spirit Indigenous sister, public health storyteller, and author of Our Ancestors Want Us to Be Mushrooms: Wisdom for Living in Balance with the Planet and Each Other. Madison shares how mushrooms offer blueprints for reconnecting with ourselves, community, and the planet through traits like connection, decomposition, adaptability, and humility, emphasizing moving forward with “original instructions” rather than trying to return to the past. They discuss relating to ecosystems anywhere (including cities) through curiosity and noticing, mushrooms' role in composting and rebuilding systems, and how doula work applies beyond birth and death to divorce, career change, and other transitions by honoring grief, support networks, and cycles. Madison also mentions ceremony, favorite mushrooms, and where to find her work online.01:19 Meet Madison and Book Launch02:27 Plant Path Origins04:05 Why Be Mushrooms06:26 City Nature Connection09:00 Why Mushrooms Matter12:53 Doula Calling and Expansion17:20 Guiding Change and Grief22:38 Ancestral and More-than-Human Support24:33 Living in Cycles28:51 Cycles and Comfort29:27 Native Plants Debate30:37 Love of Place32:05 Mushrooms and Protection33:33 Adaptability and Neighbors37:18 Humility in Ecosystems42:01 Fungi Favorites Today44:13 What Comes Next45:25 Who the Book Is For47:25 Connecting and Closing

What if one of the most powerful prevention strategies isn't another program — but helping people reconnect with culture, identity, belonging, and community?In this episode of the Prevention Leaders Podcast, Dave Closson talks with Barbara Bessette, a prevention professional with more than two decades of experience in substance misuse prevention, tribal prevention support, cultural technical assistance, and community-based prevention work in Montana.Barbara is an enrolled member of the Chippewa-Cree Tribe Rocky Boy and brings a powerful perspective on what it means to approach prevention through an Indigenous lens — not by focusing only on risk factors, but by recognizing the protective factors already present in communities.Together, Dave and Barbara explore why culture is prevention, how prevention teams can move beyond deficit-based narratives, and what it looks like to make prevention work truly culturally grounded — not just culturally decorated.They also discuss the importance of relationships, trust, family, elders, language, community events, and the simple but powerful principle: nothing about us without us.In this episode, we talk about:Why risk-only narratives can reinforce shame, stigma, and hopelessnessHow culture, identity, connection, and belonging function as protective factorsWhat prevention can learn from tribal communities and Indigenous prevention workThe role of cultural technical assistance in supporting prevention specialistsWhy funders and grantmakers need to better understand culturally grounded preventionHow community events like recovery powwows, youth centers, and “Smudge the Rez” can support prevention outcomesWhy prevention teams should involve the people they are trying to serve from the very beginningHow hope, family, and community connection can help shift prevention from deficit-based to strength-basedKey takeawayPrevention gets stronger when we stop defining communities only by their risks and start building from their strengths.Culture is not an add-on. It is not just symbols, colors, or surface-level representation. Culture can be a living source of identity, connection, belonging, hope, and healing — and those are powerful protective factors.

10 years ago, rural North Dakota became the hub of one of the largest Indigenous-led protests in decades, and one of the largest climate protests ever in U.S. history: Standing Rock. What started as a protest against a pipeline turned into a political flashpoint thanks to social media. The pipeline company's private security contractors exploited the moment, using propaganda to fan the flames of long-simmering divisions in the community and amplify the voices of groups that were pro-pipeline or anti-protestor. A decade later, the community is still divided and the tactics used at Standing Rock have been used to sew division all over the country. Never-before-published documents give us a unique insight into the strategy deployed back then, and into how things got the way they are today. Drilled: The Propagandist begins on August 25.

The Declaration of Independence proclaimed that all men are endowed with the unalienable rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.But what did liberty and equality mean for the peoples the Declaration never named—the Ojibwe, Odawa, and Potawatomi nations who had governed the vast Great Lakes homeland they called Anishinaabewake for generations before a single European sailed its waters?In this revisited conversation, historian Michael Witgen, Professor of History at Columbia University and a citizen of the Red Cliff Band of Lake Superior Ojibwe, takes us inside the Anishinaabe world and reveals how the new United States set about transforming it.The answer, Witgen shows us, wasn't simple conquest. It was something more elaborate, more profitable, and in some ways more insidious: what he calls the political economy of plunder—a system engineered to strip Indigenous peoples of their homelands while funneling the wealth of that dispossession directly into the settler colonial economy.Michael's Website | Book Show Notes: https://www.benfranklinsworld.com/323 RECOMMENDED NEXT EPISODES

(Quintin Soloviev / Wikimedia) The Arctic Winter Games International Committee has chosen Fairbanks, Alaska to host the games in 2028. Organizers chose to buck an April decision that would have moved to a three-year cycle temporarily. The announcement means the next Arctic Winter Games, which had been set for 2029, will happen a year earlier than was planned. A statement from the committee's president says an “extraordinary” proposal from Fairbanks this spring made it possible to return to the traditional two-year cycle. “Working with the Fairbanks North Star Borough, the Fairbanks North Star Borough School District, the State of Alaska, and numerous community partners, the Host Society demonstrated the community’s readiness to host the Games.” The international competition brings together about 2,000 youth participants from across the Circumpolar North, including Alaska, Canada, and Nordic countries. The multi-sport event and Indigenous cultural celebration started in 1970 and features sports like hockey, skiing, and curling as well as Dene games, such as the finger pull and snow snake. The competition took place in Whitehorse, Canada last winter. It was last hosted in Alaska in the Matanuska-Susitna Borough in 2024. The games have come to Fairbanks three times – twice in the 1980s and again in 2014. The Northwest Territories had been slated to host the 2028 iteration of the event, but withdrew its bid in 2024. Its Municipal and Community Affairs Minister cited reasons like insufficient capacity and facilities, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation reported at the time. (Courtesy Tohono O'odham Nation) Over the weekend, a tribe in southern Arizona warned that border wall contractors may soon encroach upon their lands. As KJZZ's Gabriel Pietrorazio reports, the tribe says it is ready to deal with trespassers. According to the Tohono O'odham Code, the tribe may impose up to a $5,000 fine for civil trespassing. Tribal police would escort any offender off the reservation sharing a 62-mile boundary with Mexico. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security, led by Secretary Markwayne Mullin (Cherokee) is looking to erect a border wall there. The Tohono O'odham Nation has sued, claiming its sovereignty would be violated should the Trump administration be allowed to proceed. While Customs and Border Protection is aware of the tribe's warning, the federal agency declined to comment due to ongoing litigation. Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument in Utah. (Courtesy U.S. Bureau of Land Management) Native Tribes and conservation groups are preparing to sue the Trump administration after the president signed orders to sharply reduce the size of two national monuments in Utah. Mark Richardson has details. Republicans are celebrating the move, while Tribes and environmentalists say it strips protections from culturally significant public lands. Gov. Spencer Cox (R-UT) and Utah’s congressional delegation joined the president to celebrate the signing of the orders. Steve Bloch, legal director for the Southern Utah Wilderness Alliance, calls conservatives’ vision for the state’s wildlands “wrong-headed”. “(U.S. Sen.) Mike Lee (R-UT)’s vision of the American West is not one with sweeping federal public lands. His view of the American West is Utah and other western states should be the South Carolina of the West, with almost no public land.” President Trump reduced the area of the Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monuments by about three million acres from their current boundaries – roughly 90% of the original protected area. Polling shows that 65% of Utah voters support keeping Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante protected as national monuments. Utah Republicans have long pushed to reduce or eliminate the two national monuments to allow mining and other economic development on the land. President Donald Trump speaks at the Utah State Capitol in 2017 before issuing a proclamation reducing boundaries for the Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante national monuments. Trump first reduced the monuments in 2017 during his first term, but President Joe Biden restored the areas. Bloch says he believes Trump is misinformed about the value of the monuments. “I think he really didn’t know what he was talking about. The line that everybody is hooked into that, as he understood it, you couldn’t hunt, fish, or walk in the monuments, and that is so demonstrably false.” The Bears Ears Inter-Tribal Coalition, formed by the Hopi, Zuni, Ute Mountain Ute, Navajo Nation and Ute Tribes, called it a major setback to an extraordinary collaboration on public lands between Tribal Nations and federal agencies. Bloch says it was a bitter pill for the tribes to swallow. “The tribes are angry. They are really disappointed. It’s just a lot of pain from yet another attempt by the nation to try and undo their footprint.” Get National Native News delivered to your inbox daily. Sign up for our daily newsletter today.

Water always wins. The question is whether we let it cool the planet while it does — or keep fighting it until there's nothing left to fight with.Erica Gies is the author of Water Always Wins: Thriving in an Age of Drought and Deluge, and is currently writing her second book, Roots to Sky: How Life and Water Can Help Cool Earth's Climate, due in 2028. She is an environmental journalist who has spent more than a decade travelling the world to document how communities are rebuilding their relationship with water — not by controlling it better, but by understanding what water wants and working with it.The common climate narrative — decarbonise, bring fossil fuel emissions to zero, done — is no longer sufficient on its own. Water vapour accounts for roughly half the greenhouse effect. We've degraded 75% of the earth's land surface, largely by draining it. And more sea level rise comes from pumping groundwater than from melting glaciers — something a 1970 MIT Press report already knew. We've only accelerated since.The good news: this is something we can change relatively quickly through land restoration. And water is absolutely key.In this episode:— Why water always wins and what it means to ask what water wants rather than fighting it— How growing up in California, built on extreme water engineering, shaped Erica's obsession— Why she shifted from surface water to the atmosphere for her new book Roots to Sky— The 1970 MIT report that flagged pumping groundwater raises sea levels — 55 years of acceleration since— Why 87% of wetlands drained, two thirds of rivers dammed, and cities doubled since 1992 have made our water problems worse, not better— Why the best water solutions are modular and decentralised — and why that's empowering— What beavers in California are teaching farmers who spent eighty years shooting them— Why investors optimising single variables are running out of natural buffers faster than they think— Why land back for indigenous peoples may be one of the highest-return interventions available— Her magic wand answer: caring for non-humans — and why she thinks we're closer to it than it seems.More about this episode.Thoughts?

Elizabeth Goldman is a co-director of Global Nature Watch, previously known as Global Forest Watch, a database measuring forest loss that's frequently cited in Mongabay reporting. She joins this week's podcast to detail GNW's updated 25-year analysis of global forest fire trends. The picture is stark: Forest fires burn twice as much forest today as they did 20 years ago, and historic fire seasons are the "new normal," she says. "Catastrophic, large-scale fires are becoming more of a normal. The last three years are the worst three years in the record-keeping in our data set," Goldman says. "Fires now burn twice as much forest as they did earlier in the time series from our data." 2025, considered a drop from 2024, still saw 11 million hectares (27 million acres) of forest, an area roughly the size of Guatemala, burn. Rhett Butler, founder and CEO of Mongabay, published an analysis of the dip in 2025, cautioning readers against reading too much into what appeared to be a reprieve. He noted that large-scale commodity agriculture and climate change, the causes of this forest loss, remain. Goldman agrees. In the absence of "serious action" internationally to combat it, and commodity-driven agriculture that continues contributing to these fires, Goldman says there are things governments can do to mitigate their risk locally. "There are ways to sustainably manage a forest, like through thinning and prescribed burns, fire breaks, those sorts of things that don't involve clear-cutting an entire forest, but leave the tree standing, leave the healthy ecosystem there, but are still kind of managing the fuel load," she says. Sustainable management and strengthening Indigenous rights and resources is another cited need, Goldman says, a point raised in a previous Newscast conversation with Erica Gies, who reported on the work of forestry scientist Suzanne Simard. "Results show that 60% coverage really does maintain a lot of the complexity of the forest and those forest relationships and a healthy hydrology, keeping the land from drying … in some ecosystems it seems like 30% might be enough, but definitely clear-cutting seems to not be sustainable," Gies said in that conversation.

In this week's episode of The People Dividend podcast, we're revisiting Episode 93: Lessons from the Congo Basin: Transforming Leadership with Maria Brinck. Leadership is often discussed in terms of tools and techniques, but this conversation reminds us that perspective matters just as much. Maria shares lessons from her work and travels that challenge conventional leadership thinking, exploring the power of a strengths-based approach, authentic engagement, and the wisdom found in indigenous leadership traditions. It's a timely reminder that great leadership starts with self-awareness and creating environments where people and ideas can thrive. Key Points: Leadership must shift from traditional models to human-centered approaches to meet modern challenges. Indigenous leadership principles offer valuable lessons for inspiring and guiding modern organizations. Understanding your core values, purpose, and strengths is essential for effective leadership. Fostering diversity of thought is crucial for enhancing innovation and improving decision-making. Balancing feminine and masculine energies can lead to more effective leadership. Leading with authenticity and purpose is a journey that can start today.

How does your body hold your culture, your identity, and your story? ✨ In this week's episode of Holistic Inner Balance, we are joined by the incredible Marcia Bonato Warren for a deeply grounding conversation on culture, identity, and the body. Marcia Bonato Warren is a licensed somatic counselor, teacher, and author who integrates social justice, Indigenous ways of knowing, and somatic psychology into her practice. Holding a Master's degree in Somatic Counseling from Naropa University, her work focuses on helping individuals explore their cultural identities, repattern trauma, and embrace embodied code switching as a proactive strength. From handling unexpected technological glitches in real time to exploring how our family lineages shape our nervous system responses, Marcia teaches us how to move with life's unpredictability rather than fight it. In this episode, we explore: Embodied Code-Switching®: Moving beyond language to understand how our bodies physically adapt and shift across different cultural contexts. The Three Levels of Somatic Awareness: Unpacking social, emotional, and environmental awareness—and how architecture and online spaces inform how we show up. Oscillation & Grounding: How shifting your attention between internal sensations and external environments helps repattern trauma and build true self-trust. Navigating the Age of AI: Cultivating inner discernment and body-based knowing when external reality feels questioned or gaslit. Your body isn't just a vehicle—it's a rich landscape holding your ancestral wisdom, your boundaries, and your truth.
In today's episode, Claire is joined by Dr. Briana Wong Smoak to discuss the “civilizing mission” associated with French Catholic missionary activity in West Africa through the often-obscured experiences of Indigenous midwives who worked within, alongside, and sometimes beyond the mission of Francis Aupiais. Briana Wong Smoak started at Baylor as a Lecturer in the World Religions area in August 2025, after having previously worked at Phillips Theological Seminary and Wake Forest University School of Divinity. She takes great delight in her role as a teacher, seeking to help students grow as they continue to discern their callings. Briana is passionate about the biblical mandate for justice and encourages her students to live into God's heart for those on the margins. Briana's academic work centers on Christianity in Asia, Africa, and Latin America, and how Christians in the West might be able to learn more about following Jesus by listening to the voices of those from other parts of the world.

In this powerful conversation, Meena Richardson, an Assistant Scientist at the Center for Indigenous Health at Johns Hopkins University, shares her work supporting urban Indigenous communities through community-based participatory research, cultural connectedness, and Indigenous-led approaches to healing. Drawing from her experiences as a citizen of the Haliwa-Saponi Tribe and her Indo-Fijian heritage, Meena explores how identity, kinship, and relationships serve as mechanisms for wellness and resilience. She discusses the realities facing urban Indigenous communities, the impact of historical policies such as relocation programs, and the importance of honouring Indigenous ways of knowing in research and practice. The conversation highlights Meena's dissertation research on caregiving, belonging, and cultural connectedness in urban Indigenous communities. Listeners will learn how multigenerational relationships, place-based practices, water ceremonies, traditional plant knowledge, and community-centred caregiving support both healing and prevention across generations. Throughout the discussion, Meena offers a strengths-based perspective that challenges common misconceptions about urban Indigenous people while emphasizing the power of community, culture, identity, and Indigenous leadership in creating healthier futures.

Your brain was listening before you ever took your first breath. Newborns can recognize their mother's voice—and even stories heard in the womb—but could any of those experiences survive as actual memories? JG explores prenatal learning, infantile amnesia, and the unsettling possibility that your earliest memory may be something your brain quietly invented. Then, Kat follows a voice across Saskatchewan's Qu'Appelle Valley, where the landscape can make distant calls seem impossibly close. An Indigenous tradition, a tragic love story, and Pauline Johnson's haunting poem all became tangled in the meaning of a name: “Who calls?” From the Cree trickster Wîsahkêcâhk to the mysterious St. Louis Ghost Light, Saskatchewan is filled with stories shaped by the land—and some of them still seem to answer back. Childhood memories, phantom voices, ghostly lights, and a potentially explosive bucket of dog poop. Just another day inside The Box of Oddities. Learn more about your ad choices.

In This Episode: Honoring the Pause: Opening with a moment of silence to ground ourselves in breath, ancestral wisdom, and intentionality before diving into today's conversation. Opening Prayer We pause to honor the breath that sustains us and the silence that clears the way. We step into this space rooted in ancient wisdom, shielded against distraction, and undisturbed in our purpose. As we open these pages and engage these ideas, grant us the clarity to discern signal from static. May the words we explore serve as tools for liberation, strengthening our minds, nourishing our bodies, and fortifying our community. We give thanks for the privilege of focus, the wealth of knowledge, and the sanctuary of this circle. Rooted. Shielded. Undisturbed. Amen. Grief, Joy & Creation: A personal reflection on navigating deep loss—grieving the passing of Ethel and my mother—while wrestling with imposter syndrome, finding solace in music, and celebrating life's small wins. The whitewashing of The Handmaid's Tale: A critical breakdown of how Gilead's post-racial casting erases the historical, racialized nature of reproductive control. We explore how white feminist dystopian tropes flatten intersectionality by repackaging the real-world historical oppressions of Black and Indigenous women into a speculative warning for white women. Literary Sovereignty & Counter-Narratives: Shifting the focus to works that center true resilience—examining Octavia Butler's speculative genius and Louise Erdrich's Future Home of the Living God as living records of Indigenous sovereignty and Black survival. Reclaiming the Archive: Why we must control our own narratives rather than relying on white savior tropes, highlighting institutions like the NMAAHC and NMAI that preserve real-world history over fictional panic. Perimeter Defense & Modern Vigilance: Drawing parallels between military readiness and civilian life—protecting our minds, digital spaces, and communities from scams, educational exploitation, and modern trickery through strict boundaries and active situational awareness. Pop Culture Round-Up: Quick takes on the latest season of Real Housewives of Orange County, the messy execution of Ladies of OC, why Carlos King's commentary remains elite, and a quick sports stat correction on William Jackson III's roster status with the Steelers.

***Producer's note: Reposting an episode Nick recorded with Return to Bandung*** In this episode, I'm joined by returning guest Nick Estes—associate professor of American Indian Studies at the University of Minnesota, cofounder of The Red Nation, and author of Our History Is the Future: Standing Rock Versus the Dakota Access Pipeline, and the Long Tradition of Indigenous Resistance(Verso Books, 2019)—to discuss last winter's federal occupation of Minnesota during the Trump Administration's 'Operation Metro Surge.' In this wide-ranging conversation, we attempt to complicate the artificial distinction between the 'domestic' and 'foreign' spheres, instead situating the fascist violence of Metro Surge within a larger context of both settler-colonial violence in the United States and escalating global aggression by the decaying American empire. About the show: Return to Bandung is hosted by Pranay Somayajula, an Indian-American writer, researcher, and organizer based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. His work explores themes of diaspora, (inter)nationalism, anticolonial politics, and the many lives and afterlives of empire.

Host Natalie Grueninger speaks with Dr Lauren Working about her book 'A Golden World' and how voyages to the Americas reshaped 16th‑century England. The episode traces Atlantic influences on London life, art, fashion and trade through objects and people brought back from the New World. Examples include the flood of pearls and emeralds, the rise of tobacco and new fashions, live exotic animals and the crucial Indigenous knowledge behind many colonial practices. The conversation emphasises that Tudor England, even without a formal empire, was transformed by ongoing Atlantic encounters.

The summer of 2026 has been defined by the smoke — and the horror — of wildfires around the world. But what comes after one of these fires? "That isn't the end of the story. That's the beginning of a whole different kind of story," says Nlaka'pamux ecologist Jennifer Grenz. That's why we have decided to follow the long-term story of one 21st century megafire: the 2021 McKay Creek wildfire in interior B.C. Producer Pauline Holdsworth returned in September 2025 — four years after the fire — to find new life emerging from the ashes, and new questions about the road ahead.This is the latest episode in our ongoing series Healing the Land.

I interviewed Singing Chen about The Clouds Are Two Thousand Meters Up on Monday, September 1, 2025 at Venice Immersive in Venice, Italy. Here is the story synopsis for The Clouds Are Two Thousand Meters Up: "After the sudden death of his wife, Guan discovers her unfinished novel — a tale intertwining the endangered clouded leopard and the Rukai tribe's sacred origin myth, which tells of their descent from the elusive animal. Grief-stricken and seeking connection, he sets out on a surreal journey into dreamlike scenes — a maze of the subconscious, mistshrouded forests, ancient tree hollows and symbolic inner landscapes. Adapted from a short story by acclaimed Taiwanese author Wu Ming-Yi, The Clouds Are Two Thousand Meters Up is a single-user, free-roaming VR experience that blends literature and memory into an intimate exploration of love, loss and self-reflection." Here are the contextual domains that are explored: Exploration of indigenous myths [9] as the protagonist goes on an epic journey into these imaginal (or real) realms [9]. It's a husband whose's wife [7] has died [8], and he's picking up clues from her work [10] as a writer as he explore her office [10], gets lost within a maze [12], and then he embarks on this adventure [9] deep into nature and the forest [4] Here is the Elemental Center of Gravity: 1st Center of Gravity of Earth Element / Environmental and Embodied Presence: Blends a number of different spatial capture techniques from traditional CGI modeling to Gaussian Splats. Very high resolution spatial capture. Lots of theme park type of feel whilst exporing the maze portion, and recreated a spatial journey where you feld like you had some wandering agency. But it was all still very contained and constrained, but felt like a bit of using your body movemnt to edit and pace through the piece. You're mostly an invisible ghost without any embodiment, although there are some scenes where you have agency to move around, but there's other scenes where you're more of an invisible audience. Some incredible technical breakthroughs to fuse it all together.2nd Center of Gravity of Water Element / Emotional Presence: Very narrative and story-driven overall, with a lot of influences from the cinematic tradition, especially during the first half. There's some cinematic cut scenes inspired from film. Some spatial embodied movement of spatial storytelling, The last half involves more of theatrically staged dialogue, where the overall spatial context stays static, and so the experience of time is more like being at a thearical play. Having volumetrically captured actors actually makes a huge difference in communicating the subtleness of emotionality via their facial expressions that is much harder than how emotions are captured on film. This piece stands in the volumetric capture techniques, fused with traditional CGI as well as with Gaussian Splats.3rd Center of Gravity of Air Element / Mental and Social Presence: Based upon a book, and so it has quite a literary feel, but also some scenes with extended dialogue. Overall, it's a bit of a mystery as the husband investigates the research archives of his wife, who was digging into an indigenous myth, and he comes to find out that it is completely TRUE. So there's lots of elements of magical realism, but also poetic dreamlogic and spatial storytelling. The maze scene has some post-it notes that deliver voice over. It's a single-player experience, but you share spatial contexts with some volumetrically-captured performances.4th Center of Gravity of Fire Element / Active Presence: No real narrative agency, but there's a chance to explore a room of objects, but also the maze scene gives the experience of a lot of agency as you can chose how you move through and at what pace. Archetypal Themes and Character Explored: Grief from a death and loss, and going on a spiritual adventure, to find connection. From the description about the book author that inspired the piece, they say, "he weaves dreams, memory and multiple dimensions of time and space has long inspired me." Turning inward to explore spatial contexts that symbolically represent an inner journey of discovery. "Grief-stricken and seeking connection, he sets out on a surreal journey into dreamlike scenes — a maze of the subconscious, mist-shrouded forests, ancient tree hollows and symbolic inner landscapes" Artist Statement: "Wu Ming-Yi is one of Taiwan's most influential contemporary novelists. The way he weaves dreams, memory and multiple dimensions of time and space has long inspired me. When the chance came to adapt The Clouds Are Two Thousand Meters Up into VR, I knew it would be a daunting yet necessary journey. Wu's writing evokes vivid imagery, spatiality and bodily presence — qualities that resonate with VR's immersive nature. Through free-roaming exploration, I aimed to recreate a journey of loss, memory and Indigenous mythology. This project is a dialogue between literature, technology and emotion — one that seeks to spark empathy across cultures." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gEUki2mN-ps This is a listener-supported podcast through the Voices of VR Patreon.

The International Day of the World's Indigenous Peoples is observed annually on August 9, celebrating indigenous cultures, achievements, and rights worldwide. The indigenous Aztec people still exist today. While the Aztec Empire fell to the Spanish in 1521, the actual ethnic groups—primarily known as the Nahua—survived. Today, over 1.5 million people in Mexico speak Nahuatl (the language of the Aztecs), and millions more are of direct Aztec descent. Náhuatl is still the most widely spoken Indigenous language family in Mexico.

Season 6: Indigenous Voices of This Generation In this episode of the Matriarch Movement Podcast's Indigenous Voices of This Generation season, host Shayla sits down with the daughter and successor of Talaysay Tours' founder, — an Indigenous entrepreneur, wellness advocate, and keynote speaker whose work bridges culture, sustainability, tourism, and economic reconciliation. Raised on the Sunshine Coast and rooted in both the Squamish and Shíshálh Nations, she shares how a family teaching - "we are the land, and the land is us" - shaped her path from a barefoot kid at Porpoise Bay Provincial Park to running walking tours across Vancouver, Squamish, and Whistler. The conversation traces the company's origin in 2001, growing up alongside her mother's entrepreneurial journey, the loss and revival of cultural knowledge after the Potlatch Ban and residential schools, and the little-known story of the Great Fire that shaped early Vancouver. She also opens up about building an Indigenous apparel line and skincare brand as extensions of cultural reclamation, what it means to mentor the next generation, and how she defines matriarchy in her own life and community. A conversation about land stewardship, intergenerational knowledge, and building Indigenous-led businesses that reflect who Indigenous people truly are.

The Hidden Legacy of Great Native Black American Negro Freedman, Chief John Horse. He's the most successful freedom fighter you've likely never heard of. Long before the divisive question of slavery was finally settled in the Civil War, there were the Seminole Wars — three of them —- and they were the largest sustained revolt of formerly enslaved people and their Indigenous allies. On the one side there was Andrew Jackson; on the other was a Black Seminole, Chief John Horse. By the end of his long life, he would come to be called the Moses of the Seminoles. He would fight for and against the US government, successfully winning his freedom and land for his people.

In the early 20th century, a British explorer became convinced that somewhere deep in the Amazon lay the remains of a sophisticated civilization. He spent years gathering clues from old manuscripts, Indigenous accounts, and his own expeditions, until he finally vanished while searching for it. For decades, his theory was dismissed as fantasy. Modern archaeology, however, has begun finding evidence that he may have been onto something. Learn more about Percy Fawcett and the Lost City of Z on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

From children who disappear within seconds while picking berries to hikers in bright clothing who seem to evaporate from marked trails, these cases share disturbing patterns that suggest something beyond ordinary misadventure.

Copyright ©2026, Weird Darkness.Originally aired: March 26, 2025Across North America, more than two thousand people have vanished in and around national parks under circumstances that resist every ordinary explanation. Former law enforcement officer David Paulides has spent years documenting these cases in his Missing 411 series, isolating the ones that can't be written off as voluntary disappearances, accidents, or animal predation — and finding that what remains follows a disturbing set of recurring patterns he calls profile points.This episode of Weird Darkness walks through those patterns one by one. It opens with the national park clusters and the failure of search and rescue dogs — trained trackers that lose the scent at a dead stop, panic, or never catch it at all — then moves to the berry-picking connection, with more than a century of cases: Lillian Carney in 1897 Maine, Alice Rachel Peck and her account of "The Black Man" who carried her, Eddie Hamilton, Wesley Piatote, Jack Pike, Simon Skogan, Gary Bailey, and the strange 1965 Kuninga family encounter in Finland. From there it examines the bright-clothing factor through the best-known cases in the catalog — Dennis Martin's 1969 vanishing in the Great Smoky Mountains, Alfred Beilhartz in Rocky Mountain National Park, and Jaryd Atadero in Colorado's Poudre Canyon — followed by the recurring role of granite boulder fields, nearby water, sudden weather, and victims who step out of sight around a bend and are gone.The episode also weighs what happens when bodies are recovered, often in previously searched areas or terrain the victim could not have reached, and lays out the range of proposed explanations — from unreported crimes and disorientation to cryptids, folklore entities, and Indigenous traditions of places where the veil between worlds runs thin — without landing on any of them. It closes with practical wilderness-safety guidance for anyone who'd rather not become a Missing 411 case themselves.
A dangerous secret lurks just under the surface in the play, “Bad Medicine,” making its debut at the Santa Fe Playhouse. Written by P.C. Verrone (Osage and Kiowa) and produced with a largely Native cast, it is a live production that claims elements of both horror and comedy. It comes with a warning that it “sheds light on how settler colonialism dehumanizes and exploits Indigenous peoples.” Brooklyn, N.Y.'s renowned Spiderwoman Theater is marking 50 years of Indigenous plays, outreach, and education. Rising from the feminist movement of the 1970s, its core leadership under Lisa Mayo, Gloria Miguel, and Muriel Miguel have built the space into a destination for urban Native storytelling. We'll talk with the organizers about the the mission and legacy of this groundbreaking theater. GUESTS P.C.

Randy Travis is one of the most influential country artists of all time, helping revive traditional country music in the mid-1980s with his rich baritone voice and a string of chart-topping hits including "Forever and Ever, Amen," "On the Other Hand," and "Three Wooden Crosses." Across a career spanning more than four decades, he has earned multiple Grammy Awards, sold over 25 million records worldwide, acted in film and television, and inspired generations of country, gospel, and Americana artists despite the life-altering stroke that largely ended his singing career in 2013. Details for his new album will be released in September.

First up on the podcast, Deputy News Editor Michael Price discusses the history of the North American bison population, its decline, and resurrection—and links to Indigenous cultures. He's joined by University of California, Santa Cruz evolutionary molecular biologist Beth Shapiro and Greg Wilson, a wildlife ecologist with Parks Canada. They talk about their Science paper on the genetic diversity of modern bison after near extermination during European colonization. Shapiro and Wilson also explain how these findings can be used to inform conservation efforts. Next on the show, Jennie Brand-Miller, professor emeritus in the School of Life and Environmental Sciences and Charles Perkins Centre at the University of Sydney, joins host Sarah Crespi to talk about what our ancient ancestors were eating and a big question—was hunting key to evolving big brains? Brand-Miller argues instead that fruit was the key factor in the expansion of hominin brains. She points to the high sugar demands of large brains, about 100 to 120 grams per day, and how this level of sugar intake was likely only achievable by consuming things such as fruit and honey before our ancestors' mastery of cooking and fire.
