This episode of Friends Who Argue features a discussion panel with three lawyers who have made the transition from BigLaw to found very different types of small or solo legal practices. Our speakers include Alexi Wood, Ryan Breedan, and John McIntyre. Our panelists discuss the very different reasons why they decided to found an independent legal practice, the myths and misconceptions of starting a small law practice, what challenges they overcame, and why they value the freedom of small or solo practice.Alexi Wood graduated law school in 2000 and started out carrying out non-private practice work relating to international development and the Canadian Civil Liberties Association. Alexi transitioned to BigLaw six or seven years after law school, and valued the commercial litigation training she received working in BigLaw for the decade that followed. Alexi struck out to found a law practice that was more flexible, diverse, and responsive to a mission statement that she could champion (as well as to benefit from conflict of interest referrals).Ryan Breedon made partner at a “big” Bay Street litigation boutique and was essentially content with his career. However, circa 2015 his wife and him wanted to relocate their young family back to Barrie, Ontario, where they had roots. Remote working was not yet a thing that law firms did at this time, which led Ryan to found his own solo practice. This eventually led to hiring some associate or two, and, recently, a partnership. While not his purpose, Ryan very much valued the flexibility and ability to make independent decisions that being a solo/small practitioner provided him. John McIntrye gained valuable experience in the health law specialty while articling and being an associate in BigLaw. John began to feel increasingly constrained by the bureaucratic environment he was in. He therefore left legal practice to pursue a master of public health at John Hopkins in the United States, intending to continue his career in the health sector but not necessarily legal practice. With the pandemic having very much put remote work on the table, John initially carried out Canadian health law work as something of a side practice while in graduate studies. In 2022, however, he joined forces with Jessica Szabo and embarked on a business development spree to found a boutique health law firm. This was successful, although a growing business leads to its own challenges.

While The Advocates' Society is based in Toronto, we are a national organization with Directors and members located across Canada in the treaty and traditional territories of many Indigenous Peoples. We encourage our members to reflect upon their relationships with the Indigenous Peoples in these territories, and the history of the land on which they live and work. We acknowledge the devastating impacts of colonization, including the history of residential schools, for many Indigenous peoples, families, and communities and commit to fostering diversity, equity, and inclusiveness in an informed legal profession in Canada and within The Advocates' Society.
This week on APTN News InFocus, we break down the results of the April 28 federal election. The Liberals remain in power and the Conservatives will form the official opposition. The Bloc Québécois lost seats and the NDP dropped to just seven—losing official party status in the process. Twelve First Nations, Inuit and Métis candidates were elected across party lines. One of them is Mi'kmaw Liberal MP Jaime Battiste, now the most senior Indigenous member in the party. He speaks with APTN National News host Dennis Ward about what's next. We also take a closer look at what the NDP's losses could mean for Indigenous issues in Parliament. Political scientist Paul Thomas joins us to talk about what's at stake. • • • APTN National News, our stories told our way.

Kanada liegt in Nordamerika, aber die Kanadier waren schon immer anders als ihre Nachbarn. Vor allem wollen sie nicht zum 51. Bundesstaat der USA werden. Seit Donald Trump diese Idee ins Spiel gebracht hat, ist ein neues Nationalbewusstsein aufgekeimt unter den Kanadiern. Dieser neue Patriotismus wirkt sich auch auf den Wahlkampf aus. Der Eishockey-Spruch “Elbows Up” ist zum Slogan der Nation geworden. Der aktuelle Premier Mark Carney hat früher auch Eishockey gespielt und sein kämpferisches Auftreten gegenüber Trump zahlt sich bisher aus in den Umfrageergebnissen seiner liberalen Partei. Sie liegt deutlich vor der lange Zeit führenden konservativen Opposition unter Pierre Poilievre. Wir wollen besser verstehen, wie Kanada tickt und was die Kanadier so anders macht. Deshalb sprechen wir mit dem Kanadisten Prof. Wolfgang Klooß, mit Stefan Rizor von der Deutsch-Kanadischen Gesellschaft, mit Alexandra Weipert, die nach Kanada ausgewandert ist und mit dem Politikwissenschaftler Prof. Oliver Schmidtke, der in Kanada lehrt. Podcast-Tipp: Bayern 2 radio wissen Nunavut heißt "unser Land" in der Sprache der Inuit; 1999 wurde das gleichnamige Territorium eingerichtet: Ein Gebiet sechsmal so groß wie Deutschland im äußersten Norden Kanadas und in direkter Nachbarschaft zu Grönland. Nur gut 40.000 Menschen leben dort in verstreuten Siedlungen und der Hauptstadt Iqaluit, knapp 31.000 von ihnen identifizieren sich als Inuit. https://www.ardaudiothek.de/episode/radiowissen/nunavut-land-der-inuit/bayern-2/13172419/

In this episode of Story Time with Asha Teacher, journey into the icy waters of the Arctic with the ancient Inuit legend of Sedna, the powerful sea goddess.Once a young girl who lived with her father, Sedna's life took a tragic turn after she was tricked into marrying a mysterious stranger from the sea. When her father tried to rescue her, a terrifying storm struck their boat. In a moment of desperation, her father pushed her into the ocean—but Sedna's story didn't end there.From the depths of sorrow and betrayal, she rose as the ruler of the sea, her fingers transforming into whales, seals, and other ocean creatures. Today, Inuit people believe Sedna controls the marine animals and must be honored by hunters and shamans.Listen to the chilling yet beautiful tale of Sedna—a story of pain, power, and the spirit of the sea.
The new sitcom “North of North” follows a young Inuk mother named Siaja who's on a journey to reclaim her life while living in the fictional Arctic community of Ice Cove — a town where everybody knows your business. Co-creators Stacey Aglok MacDonald and Alethea Arnaquq-Baril say they made the place up to represent all Inuit communities across the North. Back in January, they joined Tom Power to talk about shooting the series in Iqaluit (where they both live) and how they're changing the conversation around Inuit representation on-screen.
„Diese Zerrissenheit hat mich interessiert – diese Problematik der Migration, des Heimatlosen“, sagt der österreichische Schriftsteller Franzobel. In seinem neuen Roman „Hundert Wörter für Schnee“ erzählt er eine Geschichte, die sich heute so ähnlich ereignen kann: Ein weißer US-Amerikaner will den Nordpol entdecken und praktiziert „America First“. Er verhält sich in Grönland wie ein Kolonialherr, benutzt Inuit für sein Projekt und verschleppt sie anschließend in die USA – wo sie all das erfahren, was rassifizierte Migranten dort heute wieder erleiden. Und niemand will verantwortlich sein. Das Gespräch führte Jürgen Deppe.

Is it too late to say sorry? Do apologies for medical harm actually create change? The Canadian Medical Association recently issued an apology to Indigenous Peoples for the harms inflicted upon them by the medical system, acknowledging a history of racism, neglect, and abuse. In this crucial episode, we delve into the significance of this apology and explore what true transformative medical justice must entail for First Nations, Inuit, and Métis Peoples in Canada. Our esteemed guest, Dr. Jamaica Cass, a First Nation physician, brings her invaluable perspective to this vital conversation. We discuss the limitations of apologies without concrete action and the urgent need for systemic change that respects and upholds Indigenous sovereignty within healthcare. Dr. Cass sheds light on the necessary steps to dismantle colonial structures in medicine, foster culturally safe practices, and ensure equitable access to care that is self-determined by Indigenous communities. Join The Gritty Nurses as we unpack what accountability looks like beyond words, and envision a future where Indigenous health and well-being are centered through the recognition of their inherent rights and sovereignty in healthcare delivery. More About Dr. Cass A member of the Mohawks of the Bay of Quinte, Turtle Clan, Dr. Cass practices Indigenous Health as a primary care physician on-reserve at Tyendinaga Mohawk Territory. In addition, as an assistant professor in the Department of Family Medicine at Queen's University, she currently supervises both undergraduate clerks and family medicine residents. Dr. Cass completed her family medicine residency at the University of Calgary, where she served on the Indigenous Health Working Group in the department of Family Medicine. Prior to her residency, Dr. Cass spent four years in New Orleans, Louisiana, where she completed her Medical Doctorate at Tulane University. With an extensive background in science, Dr. Cass earned her PhD from Queen's University in breast cancer molecular biology before pursuing a career in medicine. She was recognized with several institutional, national and international awards, including the American Association for Cancer Research MICR Scholar-in-Training Award, the Terry Fox Foundation Transdisciplinary Award and the Robert Sutherland Fellowship. While a student at Queen's, she was active in Indigenous mentorship and advocacy, serving on the Indigenous Council of Queen's University and the Native Students' Association, and mentoring Indigenous undergraduate students.

Die Debatte um Grönlands politische Zukunft nimmt an Schärfe zu: Während die USA erneut Interesse an der rohstoffreichen Insel zeigen, bekräftigt Dänemarks Ministerpräsidentin Mette Frederiksen die Eigenständigkeit Grönlands. Die Erinnerung der Inuit an die Folgen historischer Zwangsmaßnahmen ist unterdessen noch sehr wach.
Love What if love isn't just one thing—but many? This week, we take a 360° look at love through the lens of Scripture, culture, and eternity. Just like the Inuit people have dozens of nuanced words for snow—because it's essential to their survival—we explore how love needs nuance, too. From Greek definitions to God's divine dilemma in the garden, we peel back layers to ask: what kind of love are you really searching for? Not all love is the same, and not all love leads to healing. But the love that flows from God—sacrificial, defining, and fruit-bearing—changes everything. Don't settle for shallow love when you were made for something deeper. John 3:16 Discussion topics Read 1 John 4:7–21 together. What stands out to you most in this passage? How does John describe the connection between God and love? What does this passage reveal about how we should love others? Love as Fruit, Not Just a Feeling Galatians 5:22 says love is a fruit of the Spirit. What does that mean practically? How do we “grow” in love? What weeds (like bitterness or selfishness) do we need to pull? God's Dilemma in the Garden The sermon spoke about how God had to cover what He loved (man) with the blood of an innocent substitute. How does this deepen your understanding of the cross and God's love? Take Action: Who in your life needs to experience God's love through you this week? Is there someone to forgive, encourage, or invite to church? What's your next step? Have you and your group signed up to help serve at the Easter Egg Hunt? If not, please take time to open the app and sign up to serve to help build bridges to God in an easy and practical way. Question one.

Featuring : HANNE STRAGER, The Killer Whale Journals: Our Love and Fear of OrcasORCA! It's about time one of our Book Club shows featured these fascinating animals! When Hanne Strager, then an intrepid biology student, volunteered to be the cook on a small research vessel in Norway's Lofoten Islands, she couldn't know the trip would launch a decades-long journey into the lives of killer whales―and an exploration of people's complex relationships with the biggest predators on earth. Killer whales' incredible intelligence, long life spans, and strong family bonds lead many people to see them as kindred spirits in the sea. But not everyone feels this way―like wolves, orcas have been both beloved and vilified throughout human history. Now an internationally renowned science writer, Strager gives us a book full of fascinating adventures, personal experiences with orcas, behavior, biology, and ecology. So grab a warm drink and join us for a journey into Arctic seas to decode whale-song, observe Inuit hunters in Greenland, and witness the dismantling of black market Russian "whale jails." It's a BIG story, true tales of killer whales!Episode was recorded live March 28, 2025.Email: peculiar@bschillace.comWebsite: https://brandyschillace.com/peculiar/Newsletter: http://eepurl.com/ixJJ2YPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/PeculiarBookClub/membershipYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@PeculiarBookClub/streamsBluesky: @peculiarbookclub.bsky.socialFacebook: facebook.com/groups/peculiarbooksclubInstagram: @thepeculiarbook

Deep within Canada's Arctic territory lies a world most Canadians will never experience - a place where snowmobiles are purchased at the grocery store alongside milk, where polar bears rip steel doors off community freezers to steal walrus meat, and where lake trout grow to mythical proportions. This is the world Justin Jenkins has embraced, splitting his life between Winnipeg and remote Nunavut communities where he works in mental health.Justin's journey north began with a childhood fascination with lake trout after watching fishing shows featuring these mysterious cold-water giants. What started as an obsession evolved into a life-changing decision to move to Baker Lake, Nunavut - not for the quick money many southerners seek in northern jobs, but for the fishing opportunities and deeper connection to community.The conversation paints a vivid picture of life in Canada's most remote territory, where communities exist as islands with no roads connecting them to each other or the rest of Canada. Everything arrives by annual sea lift or expensive air freight. Yet within this isolation, Justin found purpose, describing how working in these tiny communities feels meaningful compared to southern life where one feels like "a grain of sand on the beach."Wildlife encounters feature prominently, from Justin's strategies for avoiding polar bears (more common in his current community of Chesterfield Inlet on Hudson Bay) to fascinating insights about barren-ground caribou and Arctic char. Particularly compelling is the contrast between southern conservation narratives about declining polar bear populations and the observations of Inuit elders who report seeing more bears than ever.The episode culminates with incredible fishing stories only possible in the Arctic - catching 70-80 lake trout in three hours, hand-wrestling a massive Arctic char, and landing a 46-inch lake trout that fought for 50 minutes during never-ending daylight. Justin's YouTube channel "Assorted Meats" captures these adventures, including fishing with unconventional items like tampons and sunglasses.As climate change transforms the Arctic faster than anywhere else, Justin's stories preserve a moment in time while honoring the resilience of communities that have thrived in this challenging environment for thousands of years. Join us for this remarkable conversation that will change how you see Canada's true north.
Younger generations in Nunavut today are less likely to grow up immersed in Inuktut. At a language school in Iqaluit, Inuit adults who didn't grow up speaking Inuktut now have the chance to learn it as a second language at the Pirurvik Centre. By learning the words for kinship terminology, they're also discovering things about their families they never knew. *This episode is the first in a two-part series on language revitalization.
This is an example of Inuit Drum Dancing from East Greenland (an intangible cultural heritage) recorded outside the Kap Dan church in Kulusuk, East Greenland as part of a tour. The drummer is dressed in traditional East Greenlandic women's costume and is hitting the edge of the drum (as is typical in Greenland), not the drum skin itself. Drum dancing in Greenland was used during spiritual ceremonies, for entertainment and in social contexts, and also for resolving conflicts. In fact, the symbol of Greenland's modern courthouses is the Inuit drum. It, like many Inuit traditions, was almost eliminated by Danish colonialization so it is now typically only seen/heard as part of an organised performance. Fortunately, there are now programs throughout the country to encourage younger generations to take up this important cultural heritage and preserve it into the future.

What can we Westerners learn about raising intrinsically happy, self-sufficient, and helpful children from the Maya of Mexico, the Inuit of the Arctic Circle and the Hadza of Tanzania? Well, it turns out, a lot!WEIRD cultures (Western, educated, industrialized, rich, and democratic) have been making parenting unnecessarily more difficult than it was designed to be. From helicopter and free-range parenting, to distracting children instead of intentionally involving them in quotidian household responsibilities, we are unwittingly becoming the source of our modern-day parenting grievances.With the help of Michaeleen Doucleff, mother and New York Times best-selling author of one of our favorite reads, “Hunt Gather Parent,” we break down modern-day parenting myths and turn to our much wiser, indigenous peers for the practical tips we're all yearning for when we are in the trenches of motherhood.Resources: Buy "Hunt, Gather, Parent" from Michaeleen's website!Let Grow: Leading the Movement for Childhood IndependenceSupport the showJOIN OUR NEW, PRIVATE COMMUNITY!

In this special episode of the Reuters World News podcast, we visit Greenland – the Arctic island that usually flies under the radar. But since U.S. President Donald Trump recently revived his desire to buy, or take, the autonomous Danish territory, Greenland is taking center stage. His interest and growing Inuit pride have led some locals to view an upcoming vote as a historic chance to free Greenland from Danish influence. We talk to Denmark Senior Correspondent Jacob Gronholt-Pedersen and White House Reporter Trevor Hunnicutt about Greenland's strategic importance militarily and economically. Plus, as Greenlanders head to the polls, we take a look at the election that needs to thread a needle between Copenhagen and Washington DC. Sign up for the Reuters Econ World newsletter here.

Currently based in Guelph, Ontario, Emily Laurent Henderson is a Kalaaleq (Greenlandic Inuk) and Settler curator and writer. A 2020 University of British Columbia graduate in Anthropology, Emily's work and writing centres Inuit and Indigenous self-determination in the arts. Her writing has appeared in titles such as the Inuit Art Quarterly, Azure, Studio Magazine, and more. Her debut collection of poetry, "Hold Steady my Vision", was published in 2024 by Publication Studio Guelph.When Emily Henderson got her first museum job—working in a gift shop—she thought it was the first step towards her dream of being a museum curator. And she was right - only her dream was so much closer to being realised than she expected. She thought it might take decades, but six years later, she's an Associate Curator of Indigenous Art at the McMichael Canadian Art Collection with a once in a lifetime exhibition opening tomorrow."I applied for jobs I was in no way qualified for," Emily laughs, revealing her unconventional early career strategy. Her fearless approach opened doors at the Inuit Art Quarterly, Indigenous Curatorial Collective, and Art Gallery of Ontario before landing at the McMichael, where she's currently preparing to open "Worlds on Paper," an exhibition featuring 215 drawings by 40 Kinngait (formerly Cape Dorset) artists. The groundbreaking show explores how Inuit artists documented their rapidly changing world between 1959-1990—a period of profound transition as communities were moved from semi-nomadic existence to permanent settlements. What makes this exhibition possible is the recent digitisation of all 90,000 drawings, creating unprecedented access to works that were often filtered out by Southern tastes and editorial committees. Henderson shares how Indigenous sovereignty in the arts (giving Indigenous people control over their own representation) is the "crux" of everything she does. She elaborates on what Indigenous sovereignty can look like in institutions that were built to further colonize.For aspiring curators, Emily offers practical wisdom: apply widely regardless of qualifications, seek publishing opportunities, and embrace mentorship. Her journey proves there's no single path to curatorial work—just the courage to start somewhere and grow through continuous learning.

Birdseye Frosted Foods launched its first range of flash-frozen foods at a ‘test kitchen' in Springfield, Massachusetts on 6th March, 1930 - and at the helm was Clarence ‘Bob' Birdseye, an American entrepreneur of great ambition and insight. Like Captain Birdseye, the bearded, fictional mascot of the brand dreamt up for the British market, Bob had scoured the seven seas looking for innovative approaches to food preservation - a search that led him to the Inuit people of Labrador, Canada and their methods of fast-freezing fresh fish. This discovery led to a patent which eventually netted Birdseye a cool $22million. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly trace Birdseye's entrepreneurial endeavours back through his childhood; discover the extraordinary list of animal species he attempted to eat; and consider the surprising role of the humble spinach in the incredible success of frozen processed food… Further Reading: • ‘Meet Clarence Birdseye: American who cooked up frozen foods' (New York Post, 2022): https://nypost.com/2022/09/30/meet-clarence-birdseye-american-who-cooked-up-frozen-foods/ • ‘Clarence Birdseye, The Man Behind Modern Frozen Food' (Smithsonian Magazine, 2012): https://www.smithsonianmag.com/arts-culture/clarence-birdseye-the-man-behind-modern-frozen-food-95808503/ • ‘Birds Eye Fish Fingers - Fresh From The Captains Table' (Birds Eye, 1980s): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=haCuu1AhZYQ Ten minute daily episodes bringing you curious moments from this day in history, with Olly Mann, Rebecca Messina and Arion McNicoll: The Retrospectors.

Am 6.3.1930 kam erstmals schockgefrorene Tiefkühlkost in den US-Handel, eine von den Inuit abgeschaute Technik, die unsere Ernährungsgewohnheiten verändert hat. Von Erik Hlacer.
Grönland ist reich an seltenen Erden und von großer Bedeutung für die militärische Kontrolle der Arktis. US-Präsident Donald Trump wird nicht müde, seine territorialen Forderungen zu wiederholen. Was die Bevölkerung der riesigen Eisinsel wollen, interessiert ihn wenig. Bis jetzt hat er vor allem eines geschafft: Die Grönländer sind sich über die geopolitische Bedeutung ihrer Insel bewusster denn je.Ebbe Volquardsen ist Associate Professor für Kulturgeschichte an der Universität Grönlands. Er kennt sich aus mit der Kolonialgeschichte Grönlands, das heutzutage weitgehend autonom ist, offiziell aber zu Dänemark gehört. Trumps aktuelle Forderungen sind für ihn ein "Bruch des Selbstbestimmungsrechts" der grönländischen Bevölkerung. Grönland versuche, sich von der ehemaligen Kolonialmacht Dänemark zu lösen: "Das Letzte, was man möchte, ist, die alte Kolonialmacht durch eine neue zu ersetzen", sagt Volquardsen im Podcast "Wirtschaft Welt & Weit".Rund 57.000 Menschen leben in Grönland, angesichts des internationalen Interesses kennen sie den geopolitischen Wert ihrer Heimat inzwischen genau. Für Ebbe Volquardsen öffnet sich dadurch "ein Fenster der Möglichkeiten", um die Unabhängigkeit von Dänemark voranzutreiben. Kurz vor der Parlamentswahl am 11. März beobachtet er einen Wettstreit der Parteien, um diese "unschöne und belastende Situation" zum Wohl der grönländischen Bevölkerung zu nutzen. Dabei, so Volquardsen, gehe es um mehr Gleichberechtigung innerhalb des dänischen Staates oder auch um eine völlige Neuausrichtung dieser Beziehungen.Ergibt mehr Unabhängigkeit in der aktuellen Situation Sinn? Wäre es strategisch klug zusammenzurücken? "Grundsätzlich sehe ich eine gute Chance, dass diese Zeit der Unsicherheit für Grönland auch im Verhältnis zu Dänemark Chancen eröffnet, die wir vor einigen Jahren so noch als völlig abwegig betrachtet hätten", sagt Volquardsen: "Nämlich einen Weg zu einer völlig neu gestalteten Form der Zusammenarbeit, die man dann eventuell sogar eine Föderation nennen könnte."Ökonomisch will sich Grönland durchaus breiter aufstellen. Aktuell ist Dänemark der mit Abstand wichtigste Handelspartner - und Fisch das wichtigste Exportprodukt. Von daher ist der wirtschaftliche Blick gen Westen, also Richtung Kanada und USA, für Grönland von großem Interesse. Neben dem Ausbau des Handels geht es dabei auch um mögliche Investitionen im Bergbau. Die brauche es, "um das grönländische Wirtschaftssystem auf ein vielfältigeres Fundament zu stellen", erklärt Volquardsen. Auch die Europäische Union hat das erkannt, unter anderem eröffnete EU-Kommissionspräsidentin Ursula von der Leyen eine Repräsentanz in der grönländischen Hauptstadt Nuuk.Doch bei der Auswahl seiner Partner ist Grönland wählerisch: Die Bevölkerung stammt weitgehend von den Inuit ab, die bereits vom Klimawandel betroffen sind. Traditionelle Jagdtechniken etwa werden gefährlicher, wenn das Eis schmilzt. Deshalb schätzen und schützen die Menschen in Grönland ihre Umwelt und setzen für den Abbau seltener Erden hohe Standards. "Insofern müssen sich alle künftigen Investoren im Klaren darüber sein, dass sie grönländischen Gesetzen Folge zu leisten haben", fasst es Ebbe Volquardsen zusammen.Unsere allgemeinen Datenschutzrichtlinien finden Sie unter https://datenschutz.ad-alliance.de/podcast.html Wir verarbeiten im Zusammenhang mit dem Angebot unserer Podcasts Daten.

Examining the parallels between Inuit storytelling and modern horror narratives, writer Jamesie Fournier explores the importance of being afraid and how the other side comes back to haunt us for our own good. This episode is part of our on-going series called IDEAS at Crow's Theatre.
My guest today is Simon Yugler, a longtime friend who is a psychedelic therapist, educator, and the author of Psychedelics & the Soul—a mythic guide to deep healing, depth psychology, and cultural repair. With a background steeped in Jungian thought and apprenticed to earth-based wisdom traditions, Simon walks the liminal spaces where myth and medicine meet, where the personal journey of the soul intertwines with the great unfolding of culture.In our conversation, we explore the archetypal landscapes revealed through psychedelic experience—those luminous, perilous realms where the collective unconscious speaks in image and story. We trace the deep roots of mythopoetics and their role in personal and societal transformation, turning to tales such as the Inuit folktale Eagle's Gift to illuminate what it means to undergo initiation in a world that has largely forgotten its rites of passage.We also wade into the turbulent waters of modern politics, asking: What might a mythopoetic lens reveal about our current crises? How do we make sense of an era teetering between collapse and renewal? And what are the practical tools for integrating the peak experiences—psychedelic or otherwise—into the hard soil of daily life?This episode is an invitation to journey into the deep mythic currents shaping our time and the soul's quest to remember its place within them.Simon's Book Tour Dates* Denver, 3/17 w/ Jaz Cadoch (@_jaz.ie) at Greenspaces* Santa Fe, 3/22 w/ Michael Garfield (@michaelgarfield) at The Arc Bookstore* LA, 3/27 w/ Tony Moss (venue to be confirmed)* Bay Area (3/29, venue to be confirmed)* Nevada City, 3/31, at ElixartLINKS* Simon Yugler's Official Website* Book - Psychedelics & The Soul: A Mythic Guide to Psychedelic Healing, Depth Psychology, and Cultural RepairUPCOMING OFFERINGS: Heads up, the doors open for the next round of The Deep Masculine, my 3 month online offering for men (and now women) to repattern your relationship to sex, soul & purpose.

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. In November 1930, fur trapper Joe Labelle reportedly discovered an abandoned Inuit settlement, sparking an investigation and endless speculation about the disappearance of an entire Inuit village. Join us as we delve into these fascinating Canadian mysteries, examining the evidence, historical context, and their lasting impact on the nation's folklore.

Episode 2892: The ketogenic diet has surged in popularity, but is it truly beneficial for everyone? Dr. Neal Malik breaks down the science behind ketosis, exploring its origins, potential benefits, and risks. He also discusses whether supplementing with ketones offers the same advantages as following a strict ketogenic diet, providing insights into the latest research on how genetics may play a role in the diet's effectiveness. Quotes to ponder: "Keto gained popularity not necessarily because of its effectiveness, but due to athlete and celebrity endorsements." "In the short term, the ketogenic diet appears to be relatively safe for otherwise healthy individuals, but switching from a standard diet can come with side effects." "Those with Inuit ancestry may have a special genetic adaptation that prevents their bodies from producing ketones, suggesting that not everyone is built for ketosis."

Along the northern coast of Labrador there are holes in the ice where Inuit could once travel freely and access the things they need to survive. A warming planet means sea ice is disappearing and Inuit are grappling with dramatic impacts on their way of life. Rosanna speaks with elders and researchers on the significance of ice in the North and how Inuit are adapting and building resiliency in the face of a climate crisis.

In 1951, a group of 22 Inuit children from Greenland were sent to live with foster parents in Denmark. It was part of a social experiment aimed at improving the lot of the Inuit people. But, for the children involved it was a confusing experience. Helene Thiesen was one of those children. She spoke to Ellen Otzen in 2015.Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive.

Greenland hasn't had this much attention from America since the William Taft Administration. Rhetoric, and even a few congressional proposals, are flying over the prospect of the United States purchasing — or perhaps invading — the autonomous territory of Denmark. Strategic positioning and untapped mineral resources are the main drivers of the argument. The likelihood of such an action appears remote. The Inuit people, who make up the vast majority of the population, are more seriously focused on independence from the colonial power of Denmark and cooperative efforts to reduce the effects of climate change. We'll hear from elected leaders and other Greenland residents about the current political pressures. GUESTS Aaja Chemnitz (Inuk), Member of Danish Parliament representing Greenland Naaja Nathanielsen (Inuk), Minister of Business, Trade, Mineral Resources, Justice, and Gender Equality in the government of Greenland Parnuna Egede Dahl (Inuk), special advisor for Oceans North Kalaallit Nunaat
