What if the bad guy in your nightmare didn't chase you, but tried to tickle you to death? That's just one of the Inuit legends reimagined by the Inuit throat singing duo PIQSIQ on their haunting new album, “Legends.” Sisters Tiffany Ayalik and Inuksuk Mackay of PIQSIQ join Tom Power to talk about the record and why they're embracing Inuit traditions in non-traditional ways. Plus, they set up their new song, “Mahaha: Tickling Demon.”

Historians have floated a half-dozen theories for why Viking Greenland settlements suddenly vanished in the 1300s and 1400s, after nearly 500 years of occupation. Was it climate change, the Black Death, even bad farming habits learned in Scandinavia?But what if…it all came down to walrus ivory? It turns out that walrus tusks during the Viking and Middle Ages fuelled a long-distance trade network that stretched from Inuit hunters far above the Arctic Circle to churches and royalty in cities as far flung as Novgorod, Kyiv and Cologne. Now, using ancient DNA and isotope analysis, archaeologists have shown that virtually all these tusks came from Greenland!And then suddenly, the market collapsed. What happened?Today's show looks at how everything from cutting edge technology to dogged footwork has allowed researchers to piece together the details of the global walrus trade a thousand years back in time. They're also using this window into the past to better understand walruses themselves, to make predictions about the future of walruses in a warming world.My guests on today's show are James Barrett, professor of medieval and environmental archaeology at the NTNU University Museum, and Katrien Dierickx and Erin Kunisch, postdocs with James and the 4-Oceans project.Here's a link to the NTNU University Museum's new exhibit on the walrus tusk trade, Sea Ivories. The exhibition includes the Wingfield-Digby Crozier, from the Victoria & Albert Museum, plus several Lewis Chessmen, from the British Museum.Here's a link to photos and a description of a Romanesque walrus ivory carving, the Cloisters Cross.

This is John VK4JPM, secretary of the Darling Downs Radio Club with our contribution for Sunday 6 July 2025, and firstly a bit of sad news. About two weeks ago Philip Webb, VK4HPW and VK4APW late of Warwick, went silent key. Philip was a longstanding member of the Darling Downs Radio Club and the Boarder Rangers Radio Club. Those who knew Philip have commented that he was a trainer, a listener and an encourager - all great attributes. The next meeting of the club will be held on 14 July at the regional scout HQ in Victory Street Newtown (Toowoomba Newtown) and will be on Zoom. The link is on the calendar entry on our homepage where it's easy to find and where it can be changed quickly if something goes wrong. Details of the meeting are in the calendar entry. Our feature guest is Peter VK4EA and we're looking forward to a better understanding of how our electricity supply grid works and is controlled, along with some information on what might be coming down the track Greetings from The Redcliffe & Districts Radio Club VK4RC Robert Thomson VK4TFN here. 11:00am Saturday 13 July The Redcliffe Club will host a Family Day Fox Hunt. This event is for the children. It all starts at 11:00am at our club house. To find us go to redclifferadioclub.org.au VK4TAA will provide more information on the day. Spare fox hunt "sniffers" are available. Picnic and BBQ facilities at the destination. BYO picnic. At the Picnic area there will be pedestrian fox hunts for the children. This will be a family day out. The bigger the turn out the greater the fun for everyone. Thank you RRT VK4TFN Hello, I'm Geoff Emery, VK4ZPP, and I've been thinking. The crazy weather has been taking a toll along the Pacific Coast of the continent and I have felt empathy for the Inuit tribes of North America. Sadly my imagination has run amuck with this analogy but the cold slicing breezes seemed to find the porosity of my sub-tropical attire and chill the skin to the tips of the fingers. None the less, I have been wondering just which roads we need to travel to align our wish for growing the hobby with the changes in technology and attitudes in the 21st Century. Once it seemed that most people, entering the amateur radio family, looked for some suitable tools under the Christmas tree. You know, pliers, soldering irons and screwdrivers with perhaps a book on a special topic thrown in for good measure. The time moved on and with it the access to very esoteric equipment which most of us take for granted now. The ease with which global communications and broadcasting happens is the outcome of the “digital revolution” and some very imaginative minds. So we have to recognise that the ease with which we can hold a video chat on the internet depends on an amazing wealth of engineering and unimaginable amounts of money invested in the machinery, both hardware and software. This is the point where we need to put our critical thinking to work because as much as we can enjoy the simpler aspects of being a ham, we have to be able to distinguish between what can be accomplished from our home station and what is available via modern technology and the internet. I am not saying we individuals should be the ones to try and design the next iteration of entry qualifications but surely it is up to us to be able to explain in plain, simple words what makes amateur radio different yet similar and successful when the powerful systems fail. Like in the heydays of the great races on the Bathurst Mt. Panorama circuit, the track-side enthusiasts could delightedly distinguish the strengths and weaknesses of the contesting super cars, I would like to think we nerdy types whether playing digital modes, contesting or rag-chewing could hold a sensible discussion around the barbecue with their friends. So it is over to you to give this topic a red hot go and see if you have some answers which can help us. I'm Geoff Emery, VK4ZPP, and that's what I think, how about you?

This week on APTN News InFocus, host Cierra Bettens revisits Bill C-5, the One Canadian Economy Act, which became law on June 26. The legislation promises to remove interprovincial trade barriers and fast-track development projects deemed to be in the national interest. But critics say that promise comes at a steep cost. Indigenous leaders across the country have raised serious concerns that Bill C-5 could sideline treaty rights and pave the way for environmentally destructive projects. While Prime Minister Mark Carney pledged to hold summits with First Nations, Inuit and Métis leaders, sources say no formal invites have been issued. APTN's Parliament Hill reporter Karyn Pugliese joins us to unpack what the new law means for Indigenous communities and how Ottawa is, or isn't, following through on its promises. • • • APTN National News, our stories told our way.

Sedna is known as the powerful Inuit sea goddess who rules over all marine animals. Hunters must honor and appease her to ensure a successful catch, as she controls the availability of seals, whales, and other sea creatures. She remains a central figure in Inuit spirituality, symbolizing the deep connection between humans, animals, and the sea. For Further Reading: The Legend of Sedna the Sea Goddess The Inuit Legend of Sedna Sedna - Inuit Mother of the Deep Themes in Inuit Art This month, we’re talking about Maritime Madams. Whether through scientific study, aquatic exploration, or legendary prowess, they harnessed the power of the bodies of waters that cover our earth.

In this episode of Mythlok, we journey to the icy expanse of the Arctic to explore the powerful and enigmatic figure of Akycha, the solar spirit of Inuit mythology. More than just a sun goddess, Akycha embodies the life-giving force of light, the balance between warmth and survival, and the ancient rhythm of the polar sky. Her story is one of motion and meaning—a spirit constantly pursued across the heavens, leaving behind day and night in her wake.Through rich oral traditions and lesser-known folktales, we uncover how Akycha once withdrew her light when humanity disrupted the balance of nature, teaching a harsh yet vital lesson about respect for the environment. She represents not only the dawn after darkness but also a powerful symbol of feminine leadership, resilience, and harmony in a land where survival is sacred.As we delve into her myth, we also reflect on what Akycha's wisdom means in the modern world—especially as the Arctic warms and traditional ways of life face increasing threats. This episode brings to life the enduring power of Inuit mythology and invites us to reconsider our own connection to the forces that govern our world. Join us in rediscovering Akycha, the spirit of light who still watches from the northern skies.

In 1960s Greenland, thousands of young Inuit girls – some barely teenagers – were sent to hospital. Without giving an explanation or obtaining their consent, Danish doctors fitted them with IUDs, a painful procedure that left lifelong scars. In total, more than 4,500 Greenlandic women were victims of this mass forced contraception campaign orchestrated by the Danish authorities.

When Reid Mitenbuler was denied travel during the long days of lockdown, he sought out the distillation of travel in human form. Peter Freuchen (1886-1957), the legendary Danish explorer, brought stories of remotest Greenland to the world. He married an Inuit woman, learned the language, fathered children, and ventured to its most extreme locations, risking life and (literally) limb in the process. Later, he became wealthy by winning a game show, and found himself an unlikely Hollywood celebrity. Reid Mitenbuler shared his story in his book, Wanderlust - An Eccentric Explorer, an Epic Journey, a Lost Age. The New York Times called it "An absolute joy… a compelling introduction to one of the most charismatic explorers to ever cross the ice." Reid joined the Travel Writing Podcast to talk about how he came across Freuchen's story and why he knew it had to be told, his process for choosing topics and writing successful non-fiction books, and some Hollywood insider wisdom about the impact of AI on professional writers.

This recording was made in June 2024 in Sisimiut's “dogtown,” a designated area on the outskirts of town where most sled dogs are kept. It captures the chaotic energy of 18 dogs at feeding time—their excited barks and yelps, the thud of a plastic food bucket, and the musher's occasional voice as he moves steadily through his long routine. These are working dogs, not pets. When not in use, they're chained, and during the summer months, they don't work at all. As a result, they become especially animated when their owner arrives. Over the course of the recording, that initial frenzy gradually shifts into calm as each dog settles down to eat. Threaded throughout the soundscape are the delicate, high-pitched trills of Snow Buntings, ever-present in Greenland's summer. As the dogs quiet down, the birdsong rises to the forefront, revealing the deep, enveloping stillness that defines life in remote Arctic communities. This is more than just a recording of animals being fed—it's a window into an enduring tradition. For thousands of years, the Inuit have depended on dogs for hunting, fishing, and transport. Today, Greenland is the last place where this practice continues in its traditional form. What you're hearing is the sound of that heritage—noisy, raw, and deeply rooted in a way of life shaped by cooperation and survival in one of the world's harshest environments. Recorded by Lisa Germany.

In fall 2024, he published his first book, A Guide to Sobriety: 10 Gentle Reminders, where he shares how specific practices helped transform his own life, encouraging readers to explore what may work for them—whether from his experience or their own. Now a sought-after keynote speaker at various venues across Canada, Braden never misses an opportunity to share insights about the realities of Northern living, sobriety, healing, and Inuit culture.   Braden's recent endeavors include winning the 2024 Indspire Inuit Youth of the Year award, facilitating workshops in community alongside his mother, Hovak Johnston, which highlight their respective healing journeys. He also co-produced and hosted Local Lives, a 2023 television series through StoryHive which provided an Indigenous lens on the experiences of Indigenous small business owners, Knowledge Keepers, artists, and activists in Treaty 6 and 7 Territories.

Tonight, we'll read about igloos and other polar quarters, from the book Secrets of Polar Travel written by Robert E. Peary and published in 1917. Peary, a famed American Arctic explorer, led multiple expeditions to the far north and claimed to be the first person to reach the geographic North Pole. His writing blends technical insight with firsthand accounts of survival in extreme cold, offering a glimpse into the ingenuity required to build shelter in some of Earth's harshest climates. Although igloos, or snow shelters, are often associated with all Inuit, they were traditionally used only by the people of Canada's Central Arctic and a part of Greenland. Other Inuit groups constructed more permanent dwellings from driftwood, whalebone, and hides, using snow as insulation rather than structural material. Snow works as an insulator because of the tiny air pockets trapped within it—an important fact when outside temperatures plunge to −45 °C (−49 °F), while inside a well-constructed igloo, body heat alone can raise the temperature to a surprisingly livable 16 °C (61 °F).

Había una vez...Un cuento, un mito y una leyenda

Hacer click aquí para enviar sus comentarios a este cuento.Juan David Betancur Fernandezelnarradororal@gmail.comHabía una vez En un rincón remoto de la costa ártica, donde el hielo se extiende hasta el horizonte y el viento canta canciones antiguas entre los témpanos, una anciana inuit con su nieto, Kautaluk. El muchacho era huérfano: sus padres habían muerto en una tormenta de nieve, y desde entonces, solo el calor del cuerpo de su abuela lo protegía de las noches heladas.Vivían en un pequeño iglú, construido con esfuerzo y amor, pero sin pieles para abrigarse ni carne para alimentarse. A veces, los vecinos más compasivos les dejaban un trozo de grasa o un poco de pescado seco. Pero la mayoría del tiempo, Kautaluk y su abuela sobrevivían con lo que otros desechaban.Kautaluk era menudo, de mirada profunda y silenciosa. Algunos lo respetaban por su dignidad, pero muchos lo despreciaban por su debilidad. Los niños lo empujaban, los adultos lo ignoraban. A veces, cuando entraba en un iglú, alguien lo levantaba del suelo tirándole de la nariz, como si fuera un muñeco. El dolor físico era fuerte, pero el desprecio dolía más.Una noche, tras regresar con el rostro enrojecido por las lágrimas y el frío, Kautaluk se acurrucó junto a su abuela. El silencio era absoluto. Entonces, una luz suave llenó el iglú. Una figura alta, envuelta en pieles de luz, apareció ante él: el Gran Espíritu de la Tierra.—Kautaluk —dijo con voz como el crujido del hielo—, has soportado el dolor con humildad. Esta noche te doy un regalo: la fuerza de los glaciares, la voluntad del viento. Úsala con sabiduría.Y desapareció.Kautaluk no dijo nada. Esa misma noche, salió al exterior. El cielo estaba despejado, las estrellas titilaban como brasas. Caminó hasta donde yacían las piedras más grandes del campamento. Una a una, las levantó con facilidad y las arrojó contra los iglús de quienes lo habían humillado. Luego encontró un tronco gigantesco, arrastrado por el mar, y lo colocó frente a la entrada del iglú de su peor enemigo.Al amanecer, el poblado despertó en confusión. Nadie podía entender cómo habían llegado allí esas rocas y ese árbol. “¡Ningún ser humano podría haber hecho esto!”, murmuraban.Kautaluk solo observaba, en silencio.Días después, el Gran Espíritu volvió a visitarlo en sueños:—Pronto vendrá una osa blanca con sus dos crías. Sus pieles os darán calor.Y así fue. Una mañana, una osa y sus cachorros fueron avistados en el hielo. Los cazadores corrieron con sus lanzas. Kautaluk, con las botas de su abuela, los siguió. Pronto los adelantó. Los hombres se burlaban:—“¡Ese pobre huérfano! ¡Lo van a devorar!”Pero Kautaluk no se detuvo. Con una fuerza sobrehumana, agarró a los osos por las patas y los golpeó contra el hielo. Murieron al instante. Los cargó sobre sus hombros y los llevó al iglú de su abuela. Los cazadores, atónitos, lo siguieron.—Aquí hay comida para todos —dijo Kautaluk—, pero primero quitad las pieles. Mi abuela y yo haremos sacos de dormir.Los hombres obedecieron sin rechistar. Luego, Kautaluk repartió la carne entre todos. Por primera vez, fue invitado a cada iglú. Le ofrecieron los mejores trozos, pero él, con humildad, pidió solo los más duros, los que siempre había comido.Con el tiempo, Kautaluk deseó formar su propio hogar. Se enamoró de la hija de su peor perseguidor. Para asegurarse de que nadie volviera a humillarlo, hizo una última demostración de poder: colocó árboles gigantes contra los iglús de todos los que lo habían maltratado. Si se movían, serían aplastados.El miedo se apoderó del poblado. Pero Kautaluk, con calma, retiró los árboles uno por uno.—No quiero venganza —dijo—. Solo justicia.A los

Episode 356: In this episode, we explore two enduring Canadian legends that have captivated imaginations for generations. Our journey begins with the Lost Lemon Mine, a tale from the Canadian Rockies dating back to 1870. Two prospectors, Frank Lemon and "Blackjack," allegedly discovered gold, but their expedition descended into a dark saga of murder, madness, and an alleged curse that has kept the mine's location hidden for over 150 years. We then venture to the frigid wilderness of Nunavut, where the mystery of the vanishing village at Angikuni Lake unfolds.
