Bienvenidos a un nuevo Spaces en directo. Como si yo fuese el protagonista de Ellos Viven hoy vengo a soltarles una entradilla en forma de arenga. Ponte cómodo y abre tus oídos. ¡Abrelos porque te voy a contar la verdad que no quieren que sepas! Todo este rollo del nihilismo, la gente actuando como niños, obsesionada con memes estúpidos, videos de TikTok y cosas sin importancia vital, no es casualidad. No, no, no. Es un plan orquestado, una red tejida por las élites para mantenernos dormidos, distraídos y sin cuestionar nada. Déjame que te lo explique todo, pieza por pieza, porque esto es más grande de lo que parece. ¡Escucha bien, porque hasta la palabra "nihilista" tiene un trasfondo que te hace pensar quién quiere que pensemos en "nada"! La palabra viene del latín nihil, que significa "nada", puro vacío, la ausencia total de significado. Pero no te engañes, esto no es solo un capricho lingüístico, ¡es una pista de cómo nos han manipulado para abrazar el vacío! El término empezó a tomar forma en el siglo XVIII, pero se puso de moda en el XIX, cuando filósofos, escritores y, sí, ciertas élites comenzaron a jugar con la idea de que nada importa, que no hay verdad, ni Dios, ni propósito. La raíz latina nihil ya se usaba en la Antigua Roma, en textos legales y filosóficos, para hablar de cosas que no existían o carecían de valor. Pero el nihilismo como lo conocemos hoy empezó a gestarse con los pensadores modernos, sobre todo en Europa. Uno de los primeros en darle forma fue Friedrich Nietzsche, el filósofo alemán que en 1880 gritó a los cuatro vientos que "Dios ha muerto" (En Así hablo Zarathustra, 1883). Nietzsche no estaba celebrando, ¡estaba advirtiendo! Decía que sin un sistema de valores (como la religión o la moral tradicional), la humanidad caería en un abismo donde nada tiene sentido, un vacío que llamó nihilismo. Pero aquí viene lo sospechoso: mientras Nietzsche alertaba sobre el peligro, otros parecían encantados con la idea. ¿Quiénes? Los que querían una sociedad sin rumbo, fácil de controlar. El término "nihilista" se popularizó antes de Nietzsche, en Rusia, con los nihilistas rusos de los 1860s, un grupo de intelectuales y revolucionarios que rechazaban toda autoridad: el zar, la iglesia, la familia, todo. El escritor Iván Turguénev los inmortalizó en su novela Padres e hijos (1862), donde describe a un personaje, Bazarov, como un "nihilista" que no cree en nada, solo en la ciencia y la destrucción del viejo orden. Pero, ¿sabes qué? Algunos dicen que estos nihilistas no eran solo rebeldes, sino peones de un juego mayor. Potencias extranjeras y grupos subversivos financiaban ideas radicales para desestabilizar Rusia. ¿Te suena familiar? Es el mismo truco que usan hoy: siembra el caos, haz que la gente crea en "nada", y tendrás un rebaño sin dirección. Y aquí entra la conspiración: la palabra "nihilista" no solo describe a los que no creen en nada, sino que se ha convertido en una herramienta para los que quieren que vivas en el vacío. Fíjate en cómo la cultura moderna, desde Hollywood hasta las redes sociales, glorifica la idea de que "nada importa". ¿Por qué? Porque un nihilista no lucha, no cuestiona, no se organiza. Solo consume, se ríe de memes absurdos y se pierde en la matrix digital. Pero sigamos hablando de la antigua Roma ya que en la actualidad vivimos en un circo moderno, una versión 2.0 del "panem et circenses" de los romanos. En la antigua Roma, los emperadores daban pan y espectáculos para que el pueblo no se revelara. Hoy, las élites globales —los banqueros, los dueños de las Big Tech, los políticos corruptos— hacen lo mismo, pero con esteroides. Nos bombardean con Netflix, tendencias virales, influencers haciendo retos absurdos y realities que no aportan nada. ¿Por qué? Porque mientras estamos pegados al celular viendo un gato bailando o discutiendo sobre el último drama de Twitter, no estamos pensando en los problemas reales: la desigualdad, el control económico, las guerras que financian a escondidas. Esto no es nuevo, ¿sabes? Ya lo decían tipos como Theodor Adorno, un filósofo alemán de la Escuela de Frankfurt, que en los años 40 y 50 escribió sobre la "industria cultural". Este hombre, junto a su colega Max Horkheimer, advirtió que los medios masivos (cine, radio, prensa) no eran solo entretenimiento, sino herramientas para estandarizar el pensamiento y mantener a las masas pasivas. Adorno decía que la cultura pop nos convierte en consumidores obedientes, adictos a lo superficial, mientras las élites manipulan desde las sombras. Y eso fue antes de internet, ¡imagínate ahora con algoritmos que saben exactamente qué mostrarte para mantenerte enganchado! Pero no se queda ahí. Esto va más allá del entretenimiento. Hay una ingeniería social en marcha, un plan deliberado para degradar nuestra cultura y hacernos más tontos, más infantiles. Mira cómo han transformado la educación: menos filosofía, menos historia crítica, menos lógica, y más énfasis en cosas vagas como "habilidades socioemocionales" o en fomentar la cultura del grupo, o lo que es lo mismo, del rebaño. ¿Quién está detrás? Algunos señalan a fundaciones globalistas como la Rockefeller o la Open Society de George Soros, que supuestamente financian cambios curriculares para suavizar las mentes. Y no olvidemos a Hollywood y la música pop: letras vacías, películas que glorifican el hedonismo, la violencia o el individualismo extremo. Todo esto nos empuja a un nihilismo puro: si nada importa, si no hay valores profundos, ¿para qué luchar? Mejor nos quedamos viendo videos de 15 segundos en TikTok, riéndonos de cosas absurdas mientras el mundo se desmorona. Adorno lo vio venir y lo puso en practica con la puesta en marcha de grupos como Los Beatles: él decía que la cultura de masas nos aliena, nos hace olvidar quiénes somos y nos convierte en engranajes de una máquina capitalista que solo beneficia a los de arriba. Y hablando de tecnología, ¡aquí viene lo gordo! Las redes sociales no son un accidente, son armas psicológicas. Los algoritmos de plataformas como Instagram, TikTok o YouTube están diseñados para hackear tu cerebro. ¿Sabías que empresas como Meta contratan a neurocientíficos para perfeccionar sus sistemas? Es verdad, hay estudios, como los de Tristan Harris, exdiseñador de Google, que revelan cómo estas plataformas manipulan la dopamina, el químico del placer, para mantenerte enganchado. Cada "like", cada notificación, cada video absurdo que no puedes parar de ver es parte de un diseño para que no pienses, no reflexiones, no crezcas. Esto crea una sociedad infantil, incapaz de concentrarse más de 10 segundos, obsesionada con lo instantáneo. ¿Y quién controla estas empresas? Los mismos multimillonarios que financian agendas globales, como los de Silicon Valley o el Foro Económico Mundial. ¿Coincidencia? No lo creo. Ahora, conecta los puntos: este nihilismo, esta despreocupación, no es solo cultural, es un declive inducido. Hay teorías que dicen que todo esto forma parte de un plan mayor, algo como el "Nuevo Orden Mundial" o “El Gran Reset". El Foro Económico Mundial, liderado por tipos como Klaus Schwab, habla abiertamente de un "gran reseteo" para cambiar la economía y la sociedad. ¿Y qué mejor manera de controlar a la gente que debilitándola? Destruyen los valores tradicionales —familia, comunidad, religión— y los reemplazan con un individualismo vacío, un "sé tú mismo" que en realidad significa "consume y no pienses". Sin un propósito mayor, la gente cae en el nihilismo, se vuelve cínica, se ríe de todo, y se refugia en cosas absurdas como coleccionar Funko Pops o pelear en redes por tonterías. Esto no es espontáneo, ¡es un diseño! Mi teoría es que hay fuerzas más oscuras, no solo las mal llamadas élites, sino algo espiritual, como una guerra contra el alma humana. Esas elites psicopatas que Pedro Bustamente denomino elites psicopatocraticas. Mira lo que pasó con el arte: antes inspiraba, ahora tenemos "arte contemporáneo" que parece un chiste, como un plátano pegado a una pared vendido por millones. Eso no es arte, es una burla para mantenernos confundidos. En el informe Iron Mountain de 1966 que pidió el presiente Kennedy antes de ser asesinado se explicaba perfectamente como la degradación del arte fue planifica por la CIA, allí se decia: “También resulta instructivo observar que el carácter de la cultura de una sociedad mantiene una estrecha relación con su potencial para hacer la guerra dentro del contexto de su época. No es ningún accidente que la actual "explosión cultural" en los Estados Unidos tenga lugar en una época marcada por un desarrollo inusualmente rápido de la tecnología bélica. Esta relación se reconoce más generalmente de lo que dejaría entrever la literatura especializada en este tema. Por ejemplo, muchos artistas y autores están comenzando a expresar su preocupación acerca de las opciones de creatividad limitadas que prevén en un mundo sin guerras, quellos creen o esperan estará pronto entre nosotros. Actualmente, se están preparando para esta posibilidad realizando experimentaciones sin precedentes con formas carentes de sentido; sus intereses en años recientes se han focalizado crecientemente en diseños abstractos, emociones gratuitas, ocurrencias fortuitas y secuencias sin relación.” Y por si fuera poco, la sobrecarga de información nos ha fracturado. La posverdad, la polarización, las fake news: todo eso es parte del plan. En 2016, Oxford nombró "posverdad" como la palabra del año, describiéndola como un mundo donde los hechos objetivos importan menos que las emociones y las narrativas. ¿Y quién gana con esto? Los que controlan los medios y las plataformas. Si no confías en nada, si todo es un meme, entonces no hay verdad, no hay lucha, solo nihilismo. La gente se cansa, se rinde, y se entretiene con cosas absurdas porque es más fácil que enfrentar un mundo roto. Es como dijo Neil Postman en su libro Divirtiéndonos hasta la muerte (1985): “no nos están esclavizando con cadenas, sino con entretenimiento. Nos están matando con risas.” Entonces, ¿qué tenemos? Un plan maestro: usan los medios para distraernos, la tecnología para adormecernos, la educación para debilitarnos y la cultura para infantilizarnos. Todo para que no levantemos la cabeza y veamos quién mueve los hilos. La educación como decía Bertrand Rusell «estará bien confinada a la clase gobernante y al populacho no se le permitirá saber como estas convicciones fueron generadas«. ¿Los nombres? Algunos señalan a los Rockefeller, los Rothschild, el Foro Económico Mundial, las Big Tech. Yo sostengo que es más grande, que hay poderes que ni conocemos. Pero la prueba está a la vista: una sociedad nihilista, obsesionada con lo absurdo, que no sabe ni quién es Theodor Adorno ni por qué su advertencia sobre la cultura de masas es más relevante que nunca. Despierta, ¡esto no es un juego! Si quieres pruebas, mira las redes, busca los documentos filtrados de fundaciones globalistas publicados por Maria Desiluminate, Nuevo Desorden Mundial, o Desmontando a Babylon, o lee a Adorno, a Orwell, a Bertrand Ruseel o a Postman. Todo está ahí, pero tienes que querer verlo. ¡Despertad, porque nos tienen distraídos como marionetas en su circo! Las élites, desde los días de Adorno y su Escuela de Frankfurt hasta los titanes de Silicon Valley, han tejido un plan maestro: usar la industria cultural, los algoritmos dopamínicos y la posverdad para sumirnos en un nihilismo vacío. Nos inundan con entretenimientos absurdos —memes, TikToks, dramas de redes— para mantenernos infantiles, despreocupados y ciegos ante su control. La palabra "nihilista", nacida del latín nihil y moldeada por los rebeldes rusos y Nietzsche, es su arma secreta: nos convierten en creyentes de la "nada", mientras ellos mueven los hilos del poder desde las sombras. ………………………………………………………………………………………. ¡Agarraos porque os voy a contar una verdad oculta que los poderosos no quieren que sepais! Los sabateanos y el frankismo son la clave para entender cómo el mundo se sumió en el caos nihilista que vivimos hoy. Los sabateanos o sabateos son los discípulos del autoproclamado mesías judío Shabtai Tzvi, nacido en el imperio otomano, el cual se convirtió al Islam en 1666…¿bonita fecha, no creéis? Son partidarios de la Cábala y del Zohar y afirman la existencia de una ley oculta y secreta, los sabateos interpretaron la conversión de su líder como un mandamiento para practicar una religión oculta y secreta. Un tipo que en el siglo XVII se autoproclamó Mesías y dijo que la redención llegaba rompiendo todas las reglas. ¿Cumplir la Torá? ¡Pff, para qué! Él y sus seguidores sabateanos creían que el pecado era el camino a la salvación, una movida que ya olía a rebelión contra todo lo sagrado. Cuando Tzvi se convirtió al islam bajo presión otomana, sus seguidores más fieles, los Dönmeh, se volvieron criptojudíos, viviendo una doble vida mientras planeaban en las sombras. Esto no es teoría, ¡es historia pura que podéis rastrear! Luego aparece Jacob Frank, el verdadero cerebro maquiavélico. Este tipo, en el siglo XVIII, llevó el sabateanismo a otro nivel, diciendo que era el sucesor de Tzvi. Frank no solo quería romper las reglas, quería destruirlas por completo. Su lema era que el mundo debía caer en una "saturación de pecado" para forzar la llegada del Mesías. ¿Rituales raros? Claro, como esa movida en Lanškroun en 1756, donde sus seguidores bailaban alrededor de una mujer semidesnuda, diciendo que era la Shekhinah. Este es un término hebreo que viene de la raíz shajan ("habitar") y, en el judaísmo, se refiere a la presencia divina de Dios en el mundo, o a que una persona esta habitada por un espíritu, vamos que esta poseída. ¡Pura locura! Frank y sus frankistas se convirtieron al cristianismo en masa, pero no te engañes, era una fachada. En secreto, seguían con sus creencias locas, infiltrándose en la sociedad europea como una red oculta. Si cruzamos el charco hasta España y tenemos un siglo antes a los alumbrados, una secta mística del siglo XVI que también olía a subversión. Estos tipos, que surgieron alrededor de 1511 en Castilla, creían en un contacto directo con Dios a través de éxtasis y visiones, despreciando los sacramentos y la autoridad de la Iglesia. Decían que, al estar "iluminados" por Dios, no podían pecar, sin importar lo que hicieran. ¿Os suena familiar? Su idea de "dejamiento" (entregarse pasivamente a Dios) se parece mucho a la transgresión deliberada de Tzvi. La Inquisición los persiguió a muerte, encarcelando a líderes como Isabel de la Cruz y Pedro Ruiz de Alcaraz en 1524, porque veían en ellos un peligro herético con tintes protestantes. Pero, ¿y si los alumbrados eran un eco temprano de la misma mentalidad antinomiana que Tzvi predicaría después? ¡Es como si alguien estuviera sembrando la semilla de la rebelión espiritual en distintos frentes! Y aquí entra el jesuitismo, la gran pieza que conecta todo en esta conspiración. La Compañía de Jesús, fundada en 1540 por Ignacio de Loyola, se creó para ser la vanguardia de la Contrarreforma, combatiendo herejías como el protestantismo y, sí, los alumbrados. Pero esperad, ¡aquí hay algo turbio! Los jesuitas eran famosos por su disciplina, su infiltración en las élites y su "obediencia ciega", algo que algunos conspiranoicos dicen que se parece sospechosamente a las tácticas de los Dönmeh sabateanos, que se colaban en otras religiones mientras mantenían sus creencias secretas. Es famoso el tema de la monista secreta, un texto que habla de las técnicas de infiltración que usaban y usan los jesuitas. Donde esta permitido hacer cualquier maldad con tal de salirse con la suya. Curiosamente, Ignacio de Loyola fue investigado por la Inquisición en 1527 por posible simpatía con los alumbrados, aunque salió libre. ¿Coincidencia? ¡Yo digo que no! Quizás los jesuitas, mientras combatían herejías, aprendieron un par de trucos de los alumbrados sobre manipulación y control espiritual, usándolos para su propia agenda de poder. Ahora, aquí viene lo gordo: esta idea de "redención a través del pecado" es el germen del nihilismo que hoy nos tiene atrapados. Frank no solo quería romper las leyes judías, sino TODAS las leyes morales. ¿Os suena familiar? ¡Es el eco de Nietzsche gritando que "Dios ha muerto"! La filosofía de Nietzsche, con su rechazo a los valores tradicionales y su idea de que no hay verdad absoluta, no salió de la nada. Bebió directo de esa fuente envenenada del frankismo, que decía que destruir el orden moral era el camino a la libertad. Los frankistas, con su desprecio por el Talmud y las normas, fueron los primeros en decir que nada importa, que todo vale si sirve al "gran plan". ¡Eso es nihilismo puro, amigos! Y no creais que esto se quedó en el siglo XVIII. Los frankistas, con sus conversiones falsas al cristianismo, se metieron en las élites de Europa. Hay quienes dicen que familias poderosas, incluso en América, tienen raíces frankistas. ¿Nombres como Brandeis o Frankfurter te dicen algo? No es casualidad. Estos tipos sembraron las semillas de una ideología que destruye cualquier sentido de propósito, dejando un vacío que hoy llamamos nihilismo moderno. Desde el marxismo cultural hasta los movimientos que promueven el caos moral, todo tiene el ADN de esa "involución" que Frank predicaba. No era una regresión biológica, ¡era un plan para sumir al mundo en la anarquía espiritual! Lo más loco es cómo lo hicieron: los frankistas no solo querían pecar, querían que el mundo entero se hundiera en el pecado. Frank decía que el caos moral forzaría la redención, pero, ¿y si la redención nunca llega? Lo que queda es un mundo donde nadie cree en nada, donde los valores se derrumban. Eso es exactamente lo que Nietzsche teorizó después, y lo que hoy vemos en la cultura: un vacío donde todo es relativo, donde no hay bien ni mal. El solipsismo satanista que impera por todas partes. Los frankistas, con sus rituales y su infiltración, fueron los arquitectos de esta mentalidad. No lo digo yo, ¡lo dicen los hechos históricos! No es ninguna sorpresa que el frankismo tuviera hasta 50,000 seguidores en su momento, muchos en Polonia, donde se mezclaron con la nobleza católica. Desde ahí, su influencia se extendió como un virus. Si queréis pruebas, leed los primeros trabajos de Gershom Scholem, que destripó el sabateanismo y mostró cómo sus ideas eran una bomba de relojería. La evolución del estudio de Scholem sobre el sabbateanismo sirve como prueba de la creciente reticencia de Scholem y otros muchos a criticar el proyecto sionista tras el Holocausto y la Segunda Guerra Mundial y de su giro gradual desde la marginalidad hacia convicciones políticas más dominantes. En resumen, los sabateanos y Frank armaron el escenario para el nihilismo actual. Su plan de "redención a través del pecado" no era misticismo inocente, era una declaración de guerra contra los valores. Nietzsche solo tomó el testigo y lo gritó más alto. Hoy, cuando ves una sociedad que no cree en nada, que celebra la transgresión por la transgresión, estás viendo el legado de Frank y sus locos. ¡Despierta, que el nihilismo no es casualidad, es un plan que lleva siglos en marcha! ………………………………………………………………………………………. ¡Y hasta aquí el podcast de hoy, amigos! Hemos desentrañado cómo las distracciones modernas y la infantilización de la sociedad nos mantienen en una danza perpetua de entretenimiento vacío, lejos de la verdad incómoda. Como decía Orwell, “el pueblo que elige corruptos, impostores, ladrones y traidores no es víctima, sino cómplice”. Y en la misma línea, Russell nos advertía que “la mayoría de las personas preferirían morir antes que pensar; de hecho, muchas lo hacen”. Así que, mientras el mundo nos lanza notificaciones y pantallas para anestesiarnos, recordad: despertad, cuestionad, pensad. Pero, claro, si todo esto os parece demasiado... ¡hoy no, mañana! ……………………………………………………………………………………….

Rational thinking might drive economics, but emotional behavior drives decisions. And no one understands that better than Dan Ariely, author of Predictably Irrational, a book that's reshaped our assumptions about how people make decisions.In this episode, we're unpacking key lessons from Dan Ariely's work with the help of our special guest, Leslie Alore, SVP of Marketing at Flexera.Together, we explore what B2B marketers can learn from setting the right expectations, why fewer choices close more deals, and how the power of “free” and fear of loss can drive serious retention.About our guest, Leslie AloreAs the SVP of Marketing, Leslie Alore leads Flexera's marketing strategy with an aim to create great experiences and outcomes for our customers.Her passion for people and technology—combined with more than 15 years of marketing leadership in the tech space—has established her as a successful, results-driven executive who enables teams to do their best work.Prior to joining Flexera, Leslie served as the Global SVP of Lifecycle Marketing at Ivanti. Before that, she held various marketing, operations and GTM strategy roles at Iron Mountain. Leslie is an active speaker and mentor in the GTM community, and has been recognized among “Top Women in Marketing” by Ragan Communications and “Women of the Channel” by CRN.Leslie holds a BBA in Management, and an MBA with a concentration in Strategic Leadership from Walsh College of Accountancy and Business Administration.What B2B Companies Can Learn From Predictably Irrational:Set expectations to shape reality. Great marketing doesn't just reflect value, it creates the conditions for it. Leslie highlights how expectations shape reality. When buyers believe something is good, they interpret every detail through that lens. This isn't about manipulation, it's about clarity and consistency. Leslie says, “The effect of expectations… believing beforehand something is good, therefore it will be or the reverse.” So stop hoping your audience connects the dots. Tell them what to expect, then deliver on it. Perception isn't a bonus, it's the foundation.Shrink your options to speed the decision. Too many options stall progress. The paradox of choice tells us more isn't better, it's paralyzing. Leslie urges marketers to curate the path forward: “You actually want to give people fewer options and take control of the options that they see.” Don't just join the shortlist, define it. When you narrow the frame, you speed up the decision for your customers. Turn “free” into staying power with loss aversion. There's magic in “free,” but the real power lies in what people fear losing. Once someone uses your product, whether it's a freemium tool or an ungated resource, they've invested. Now there's skin in the game. Leslie puts it simply, “People will overvalue something that's free and ignore kind of the trade-off costs associated. And loss is psychologically painful. We don't want to lose that, which we already have.” Whether you offer software, content, or services, create early wins. Then make the cost of leaving feel higher than the cost of staying.Quotes*“ There's many organizations that lean into that power of positivity…What's very interesting is that consumer brands do this a lot very, very well. B2B organizations tend to do almost the opposite. They tend to lean more into FUD. And that's a harder road to tread.”*“ If you're an organization that is selling software, the software is designed to provide a business outcome. It's designed to solve a business problem. Instead of focusing on, here's the business problem. Doesn't that suck for you? You can say, ‘here's the solution.*“You have the power, you can feel confident about your ability to achieve X, Y, Z because you've solved this problem.' It's saying the same thing, but orienting it in a positive way and being very, very, very consistent in that message. Beat that drum over and over and over again.”*“ Narrow down the competitive options for them. Your sales process will move faster. You will be able to take better control of the narrative if you say, ‘this is us and these are the two other vendors that look like us. And here's why we are different and better, and here's what you can expect from these guys.' And that doesn't mean saying negative things about them.  It's just highlighting your strengths and your virtues.”*“People are willing to accept trade-offs for something that is perceived to be free…This is the exact reason that PLG, product-led growth, is so powerful. Because if you can get people in the door with some sort of freemium offering, people will actually work harder to do the legwork to get a free product to work and interact with it, than they might be willing to put in for something that they have to go pay for. And then once they have it and they've put in the work, they don't wanna lose it.”Time Stamps[00:55] Meet Leslie Alore, SVP of Marketing at Flexera[00:56] Why Predictably Irrational?[02:20] The Role of SVP of Marketing at Flexera[02:47] Understanding Predictably Irrational[09:56] B2B Marketing Lessons from Predictably Irrational[37:49] Cognitive Dissonance in Buying Behavior[42:17] Emotional Marketing in B2B[46:18] Final Thoughts and TakeawaysLinksConnect with Leslie on LinkedInLearn more about FlexeraAbout Remarkable!Remarkable! is created by the team at Caspian Studios, the premier B2B Podcast-as-a-Service company.

Phil Tinline is the author of the new book Ghosts of Iron Mountain: The Hoax of the Century, Its Enduring Impact, and What It Reveals About America Today. Over the course of twenty years working for the BBC, Tinline has made and presented many acclaimed documentaries about how political history shapes our lives. He has also written for The Times (London), The Guardian, The Daily Telegraph, The New Statesman, BBC History Magazine, and Prospect. In this wide-ranging conversation, Phil Tinline explores how conspiracy theories and conspiracism helped to birth the Age of Trump and its authoritarian populism and anti-intellectualism, the allure of the conspiracy theory subculture, and why the most obvious and simple explanation(s) for complex and terrifying events may be more frightening and disturbing than the most elaborate conspiracy theories. Tinline explains why the agitprop satirical Iron Mountain conspiracy theory from the 1960s endures and is one of the most compelling and fascinating stories he has ever encountered. Chauncey DeVega reflects on the meaning of Mother's Day, aging parent(s), and personal landmark moments in this time of great troubles and crisis. Chauncey also sorts through the overflowing latrine of political waste that is “flooding the zone” to highlight some important news items that you may have missed -- including a horrible story about how a poor Black rural community in Alabama is literally drowning in sewage and the funding to help clean it up was cut by the Trump administration because it was supposedly a bogeyman phantasm white racial paranoiac “DEI” program. On this week's episode of the podcast, there is also some fun and levity to balance out the seriousness and dire challenges of this very difficult time in America and around the world. Chauncey DeVega goes on a journey around his neighborhood and ponders the sacred and the profane. He also shares his thoughts on last weekend's WWE Backlash pay-per-view event and John Cena's first title defense as a heel. Chauncey is an unapologetic devotee of TLC network's many human zoos and offers up his professional judgement about the great mystery of our era: Was Amy on 1,000-Lb Sisters actually bitten by a camel or is it all an elaborate hoax?

DORA, Risk, and Resilience: What Carriers, MSPs, and MSSPs Need to Know Now, "DORA, Risk, and Resilience: What Carriers, MSPs, and MSSPs Need to Know Now" “You can outsource the function — but you can never outsource the risk.” That's the stark reminder from Jenna Wells of Supply Wisdom, who joins Technology Reseller News Publisher Doug Green for a timely and wide-ranging conversation on the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA). Though it's an EU regulation, DORA's scope reaches far beyond Europe, impacting financial institutions, carriers, MSPs, MSSPs, and enterprises worldwide. Now in effect since January 2025, DORA requires firms to actively monitor and manage their third-party information and communications technology (ICT) providers — vendors that store, create, or share data. That's a tall order in a hyper-connected world where cloud services, telecom carriers, and AI infrastructure are interwoven into every business process. Wells explains that DORA compliance begins with full visibility into your outsourced ecosystem. Organizations must first identify their entire vendor population, then drill down to understand which of those suppliers are truly critical. From there, they must implement continuous monitoring — not just annual risk reviews — and prepare robust backup plans to ensure operational continuity if a vendor falters. The implications for carriers and MSPs are particularly acute. These organizations are linchpins of global communications and critical infrastructure — and often rely on their own layers of third-party vendors. Wells stresses that identifying service concentration risks, establishing redundancies, and planning for hot rollovers are essential steps to avoid costly downtime and regulatory exposure. Drawing on her experience managing third-party risk at Iron Mountain, Wells underscores how tools like Supply Wisdom can simplify the path to compliance. By automating risk monitoring and surfacing early warning signs of disruption, organizations not only stay ahead of regulation — they gain a powerful competitive edge. With enforcement timelines progressing, Wells offers a clear message: DORA compliance is no longer a future issue. It's here. And those who act now will be better protected, more resilient, and more trusted by their customers and partners. Learn more: https://www.supplywisdom.com

In 1967 a group of writers in the US pulled off an ingenious hoax – the publication of a so-called top secret document detailing how global peace would destroy American society. Even when the deception was revealed, many groups on the left and right argued it was true, or that it revealed truths about the ‘deep state'. Phil Tinline takes up the story in Ghosts of Iron Mountain, showing how what started as satire gained currency, as trust in government and institutions collapsed. During the Covid-19 lockdown the comedian Rosie Holt began a series of satirical videos in which she spliced together actual footage from news interviews with her play-acting the role of a politician. Many of her parodies caused outrage as viewers thought she was a real MP. The statistician and epidemiologist Professor Adam Kucharski is interested in how people establish fact from fiction. In Proof: The Uncertain Science Of Certainty he explores how truth emerges, but warns against building a society that distrusts and doubts everything.Producer: Katy Hickman

Bienvenidos una vez mas al canal de audio de buscadores de la verdad que llevamos a cabo a través de los Spaces de Twitter. Esta vez queremos hablar sobre geoingenieria, armamento no convencional, inmigración de reemplazo y otros problemas a través de un informe solicitado en 1995 y expuesto en 1999 en la eurocámara. Gracias a dicho informe conoceremos hasta donde llega la hipocresía de nuestros gobernantes. Este informe fue impulsado desde la ONU a través de la política y diplomática socialdemócrata sueca Karin Maj Britt Margareta Theorin que lo expuso en 1995 y que termino tomando forma de informe en 1999 cuando la Comisión de Asuntos Exteriores, Seguridad y Política de Defensa le encargo al Sr. Olsson de la Comisión de Medio Ambiente, Salud Pública y Protección del Consumidor que crease dicho informe. Veamos el considerando E de la propuesta de resolución: “Observando que las amenazas sobre el medio ambiente, los flujos de refugiados, los antagonismos étnicos, el terrorismo y la delincuencia internacional constituyen nuevas y graves amenazas para la seguridad y que, al cambiar la situación de seguridad, cobra cada vez mayor importancia la capacidad de enfrentarse a distintas formas de conflictos y, dado que las amenazas para la seguridad son también de carácter no militar, es importante que los recursos de carácter militar se utilicen también para fines no militares;” Analicemos brevemente alguna de las frases: "Observando... [que] los flujos de refugiados, los antagonismos étnicos...constituyen nuevas y graves amenazas para la seguridad..." O sea que desde 1999 saben que importar refugiados, lo que ahora llaman migrantes, ocasionará una amenaza para la seguridad interna de la UE y que además exista un problema para asimilar su cultura. Solo los animales migran, las personas emigran, pero desde hace unos años las personas son tratadas como animales y todos hemos aceptado ese cambio en el lenguaje. Podrán descargar de la pagina oficial de la UE este informe a través de los enlaces que dejare en la descripción de este podcast y también podrán descargar en los enlaces un estudio de 177 páginas de la ONU que reconoce el reemplazo demográfico en Occidente. Lo saben...pero seguimos igual o peor que en 1999. Solo la UE absorbe este tipo de inmigración, cosa que no hacen otros países islámicos como Arabia Saudí ni hay ninguna presión para que se haga por parte de estos paises donde no tendrían ese problema para asimilar la cultura de los refugiados. Sigamos. Veamos el considerando K: “Considerando que, según resultados detallados de la investigación internacional filtrados y publicados por el Climate Institute de Washington, el número de "refugiados medioambientales" es actualmente superior al número de "refugiados tradicionales" (25 millones frente a 22 millones) y que se prevé que esta cifra se duplique para el año 2010 o que, en el peor de los casos, sea mucho mayor,” Ya no hacen falta guerras, con el cuento climático es suficiente para hacer migrar, como animales, a las personas pobres. Todo gira en torno a la guerra como pudimos comprender al leer el EL INFORME DE IRON MOUNTAIN que tiene como subtitulo “Sobre la Posibilidad y Conveniencia de la Paz”. Gracias a Gus y Katy yo conocí la existencia de dicho informe originalmente publicado en 1966 supuestamente por el Hudson Institute a petición del entonces Secretario de Defensa, Robert S. McNamara durante el mandato de Kennedy. En su apartado de sustitutos de las funciones no-militares de la guerra podemos leer: 1. Económico. (a) Un programa integral de acción social, dirigido hacia la máxima mejora de las condiciones generales de la vida humana. (b) Un programa de investigación espacial gigantesco y sin meta concreta orientado hacia objetivos no realizables. (c) Un sistema de inspección de desarme permanente, ritualizado y ultra-elaborado y variantes de semejante sistema. 2. Político. (a) Una fuerza policial internacional omnipresente y virtualmente omnipotente, (b) una amenaza extraterrestre establecida y reconocida. (c) una contaminación ambiental masiva y global. (d) enemigos ficticios alternativos. 3. Sociológico: función de control. (a) programas generalmente derivados del modelo del Peace Corps. (b) una forma moderna y sofisticada de la esclavitud. Función motivacional. (a) contaminación ambiental intensificada. (b) nuevas religiones u otras mitologías. (c) juegos de sangre socialmente orientados. (d) una combinación de estas formas. 4. Ecológico. Un programa integral de eugenesia aplicada. 5. Cultural. No se propone ninguna institución sustitutiva. 6. Científica. Los requerimientos secundarios de programas de la investigación espacial, la asistencia social y/o la eugénica. Muy posiblemente ya se estén llevando a cabo varias de las sugerencias que aparecen en dicho informe, muy posiblemente las rayas en el cielo que mas y mas personas están viendo sean parte de esa estrategia de generar una “contaminación ambiental intensificada”. En el propio informe se dice lo siguiente: “No obstante ello, un sustituto político efectivo de la guerra requeriría "enemigos alternativos" algunos de los cuales podrían parecer rebuscados dentro del contexto del actual sistema de guerra. Podría ocurrir, por ejemplo, que la fuerte contaminación del medio ambiente pudiera eventualmente reemplazar la posibilidad de destrucción masiva por armas nucleares como amenaza principal y más evidente para la supervivencia de nuestra especie. El envenenamiento del aire y de las principales fuentes de alimentos y de agua ya se encuentra bastante adelantado y a primera vista podría representar una solución a este problema; constituye una amenaza que solo puede abordarse a través de una adecuada organización social y con poder político. Pero se estima que deberá pasar entre una generación y una generación y media antes de que la contaminación ambiental, por más severa que sea, se torne lo suficientemente amenazante a nivel global como para ofrecer una posible base de solución. Es verdad que la tasa de contaminación podría incrementarse en forma selectiva para este propósito; en verdad, la mera modificación de los programas actuales para prevenir la contaminación podrían acelerar este proceso como para que se genere una amenaza creíble mucho antes. Pero el problema de la contaminación se ha visto publicitado tan ampliamente en los últimos años que parece altamente improbable que un programa gubernamental de efectos deliberadamente nocivos para el medio ambiente pudiera ser implementado de manera políticamente aceptable. Por más improbable que el posible enemigo alternativo que hemos mencionado pueda parecer, debemos enfatizar que alguno debe ser hallado, y el mismo debe ser de una calidad y magnitud creíble si una transición hacia la paz ha de llevarse a cabo algún día sin que provoque la desintegración social.” Volvamos a nuestro informe de la Union Europea donde las tres siguientes consideraciones nos hablan de que como la guerra fría ha liberado recursos militares deberíamos emplearlos en los retos medioambientales civiles: “O. Considerando que existe una urgente necesidad de movilizar recursos adecuados para hacer frente a los retos medioambientales y observando que los recursos disponibles para la protección del medio ambiente son muy limitados, lo cual obliga a una nueva forma de pensar en lo que respecta a la utilización de los recursos existentes; P. Observando que, a la vez que se liberan los recursos militares, se ofrece a los militares la oportunidad única de contribuir con su enorme capacidad a los esfuerzos civiles para enfrentarse a los crecientes problemas medioambientales; Q. Constatando que los recursos militares son recursos nacionales y que el desafío medioambiental es global; que, por consiguiente, existe la necesidad de encontrar formas de cooperación internacional para la reasignación y utilización de recursos militares en favor del medio ambiente;” En el R dicen abiertamente: “…existe una creciente necesidad de realizar un análisis de la relación coste/beneficio de las distintas estrategias medioambientales, que debería incluir potenciales reasignaciones, reorientaciones y transferencias de recursos militares;” Al loro con el considerando T porque se carga de un plumazo a todos los gilipollas que nos llaman magufos por afirmar desde siempre que el proyecto HAARP es un arma militar y no un simple proyecto científico para observar las auroras boreales: “Considerando que, pese a los convenios existentes, la investigación en el sector militar sigue basandose en la manipulación medioambiental como arma, tal y como pone, por ejemplo, de manifiesto el sistema HAARP con base en Alaska,” Y es que los militares son muy de callarse las cosas como nos explican en la siguiente consideración, la U: “Considerando que la experiencia adquirida con el desarrollo y la utilización de la energía nuclear "para fines pacíficos" constituye una advertencia contra la invocación del secreto militar para impedir una evaluación y supervisión claras de las tecnologías combinadas civil/militar cuando la transparencia se encuentra, en cualquier caso, comprometida,” La frase dice que, en el pasado, cuando se empezó a usar la energía nuclear "con fines pacíficos" (como para producir electricidad), se aprendió una lección importante: a veces, los gobiernos esconden información diciendo que es un "secreto militar". Eso puede ser peligroso porque impide que otras personas revisen y controlen bien ciertas tecnologías que tienen tanto usos civiles (como la electricidad) como militares (como las bombas nucleares). Por eso, el texto advierte que hay que tener mucho cuidado con la falta de transparencia en estos casos. Tras estas consideraciones este informe hace una serie de peticiones sobre: a) producción agrícola y alimentaria y degradación del medio ambiente; b) escasez de agua y suministro transfronterizo de agua; c) deforestación y restablecimiento de las cuencas carboníferas; d) desempleo, subempleo y pobreza absoluta; e) desarrollo sostenible y cambio climático; f) deforestación, desertización y aumento de la población; g) la relación entre estas cuestiones con el calentamiento del planeta y el impacto humanitario y medioambiental de acontecimientos climáticos cada vez más extremos; Sobre la pobreza leíamos en el informe Iron Mountain lo siguiente: “La naturaleza arbitraria de los gastos de guerra y de las demás actividades militares transforma a éstas en instrumentos ideales para controlar las relaciones esenciales entre las clases. Obviamente, si el sistema de guerra fuera descartado, se requeriría inmediatamente el uso de nuevos mecanismos políticos para cumplir esta sub-función vital. Hasta tanto se hayan desarrollado, la continuidad del sistema de guerra debe verse asegurada, aunque tan solo sea para preservar la calidad y el grado de pobreza que una sociedad requiere como un incentivo, como así también para mantener la estabilidad de su organización interna del poder.” Esta semana nos han hablado de que en marzo de 2022 atravesó España una calima, viento con polvo en suspensión, procedente de Africa que venia cargado de radioisotopos como el cesio 137. “Considera que las pruebas nucleares atmosféricas y subterráneas han diseminado, como consecuencia de la lluvia radiactiva, importantes cantidades de cesio-137 radiactivo, estroncio 90 y otros isótopos cancerígenos en todo el planeta y han ocasionado importantes perjuicios medioambientales y para la salud en las zonas en que se han realizado las pruebas;” El siguiente considerando deja en bastante mal lugar al tuitero “operador nuclear” que siempre trata de convencernos de lo segura que es la energia nuclear y lo bien que se porta la industria nuclear y lo bien que trabaja: “Considera que algunas partes del mundo se encuentran amenazadas por el almacenamiento y la inmersión incontrolados, inseguros y poco profesionales de los submarinos nucleares, así como por su combustible radiactivo y las fugas de los reactores nucleares; considera que, a causa de ello, son muchas las posibilidades de que grandes regiones puedan verse pronto contaminadas por la radiación;” Almacenamiento e inmersión incontrolada de residuos radiactivos como la que provoco que los pescadores de Etiopía decidieran hacerse piratas e impedir que les arrojaran la basura radiactiva de Europa en sus aguas cercanas. Tal y como yo explique en “UTP 44 Los piratas somalies y los depósitos radiactivos que provocaban cáncer” hace ya seis años. Europa es un almacén al aire libre de basura radiactiva y mucho más después del accidente de Chernobil tal y como han reconocido científicos como la Dra Helen Caldicott, se acumulan en las vías de países como Ucrania centenares, sino miles, de vagones cargados hasta arriba de basura radiactiva de las procedencias mas diversas, posiblemente hasta de España. Acordemonos de los miles o cientos de miles de barriles con basura radiactiva arrojados frente a las costas gallegas y otras costas europeas. Pero no solo este tipo de mierda contaminante se ha escondido en el fondo del mar como podemos leer en el sexto punto a considerar: “Considera que todavía se ha de encontrar una solución adecuada al problema de las armas químicas y convencionales sumergidas después de las dos guerras mundiales en numerosos puntos de los mares que rodean a Europa como una solución "fácil" para deshacerse de estas reservas, sin que nadie sepa todavía hoy en día cuáles pueden ser las repercusiones ecológicas a largo plazo, en particular para la fauna marina y la vida costera;” Decir aqui que toda la revolución verde que se produjo después de la segunda guerra mundial y que consistió en introducir los fitosanitarios en el campo se tradujo en sacar los remanentes químicos de las fabricas que habían servido para crear explosivos y emplearlos en las tareas de fertilización de la agricultura moderna. La Revolución Verde se basó en el uso de productos fitosanitarios derivados en gran medida de sobrantes de la industria armamentística. Muchos de los compuestos químicos desarrollados para la guerra encontraron una nueva aplicación en la agricultura, impulsando la productividad, pero también generando consecuencias ambientales y de salud. Los tres productos primarios más importantes fueron: Derivados del amoníaco (NH₃) Procedencia: Durante la guerra, el amoníaco se utilizó en la fabricación de explosivos como el nitrato de amonio, un componente clave en bombas y municiones. Aplicación en la agricultura: Al terminar el conflicto, la industria química adaptó este compuesto para la fabricación de fertilizantes nitrogenados (como el nitrato de amonio y la urea), esenciales para aumentar los rendimientos agrícolas. Compuestos organoclorados Procedencia: Originalmente investigados como posibles agentes químicos de guerra, los organoclorados se utilizaron durante la guerra por sus propiedades tóxicas. Aplicación en la agricultura: Uno de los productos más emblemáticos fue el DDT (dicloro difenil tricloroetano), utilizado como insecticida en campañas militares para controlar el paludismo y luego aplicado masivamente en la agricultura. Su persistencia en el medio ambiente lo llevó a ser prohibido en muchos países décadas después. Derivados del fósforo y organofosforados Procedencia: Los compuestos organofosforados tienen su origen en los gases nerviosos desarrollados por los nazis durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial, como el sarin y el tabún, diseñados para la guerra química. Aplicación en la agricultura: Tras la guerra, estos compuestos fueron adaptados como plaguicidas (ejemplo: paratión, malatión), utilizados para el control de plagas en cultivos. A pesar de su eficacia, su toxicidad también representó riesgos para los agricultores y el medio ambiente. Estos productos marcaron el inicio de una agricultura altamente dependiente de los agroquímicos, con impactos positivos en la productividad, pero también efectos adversos en la salud humana y los ecosistemas. Pues no contentos con introducirlos en nuestra dieta a través de la comida también fueron arrojados por cientos de miles de toneladas a las aguas que rodean Europa como nos dice el considerando numero 6. En el numero 7 dice "Considera que la Unión Europea deberá contribuir a encontrar una solución al problema de que, como consecuencia de las actuales guerras en regiones enteras de África, se hayan arruinado estructuras agrícolas y humanas…”, lo que nos lleva a aceptar las políticas de aceptar inmigración africana sin pararnos a pensar en las consecuencias. Luego en la consideración numero 9 apartado d pide: “desarrollar planes para la creación de grupos de protección internacionales y europeos con utilización de personal, equipos e instalaciones del sector militar, que estén disponibles en el marco de la Asociación por la paz para su intervención en situaciones de emergencia relacionadas con el medio ambiente;” En su petición numero 17 dice: “Subraya la importancia de reforzar el trabajo medioambiental preventivo con el fin de poder enfrentarse a las catástrofes naturales y medioambientales;”. Hemos podido comprobar de primera mano en la inundación de Valencia como los militares ni estaban ni se les esperaba. Esta saliendo a la luz como recibieron ordenes concretas para no intervenir y como se impidió que incluso actuasen de motu propio los soldados fuera del ámbito militar. El punto 21 es papel mojado: “Considera que debe lucharse contra el secreto que rodea la investigación militar y que debe promoverse el derecho de transparencia y control democrático de los proyectos de investigación militar;”. Vemos como las fumigaciones ilegales de geoingeniería que con toda seguridad son llevadas a cabo por militares no termina de salir a la luz. Claramente en el punto 23 vuelve a incidir en lo peligroso de la industria nuclear diciendo: "Subraya que una de las amenazas medioambientales más graves en zonas próximas a la UE es la falta de control de los residuos de la industria nuclear, de las existencias de armas biológicas y químicas…” Los puntos 26 a 30 sobre Aspectos jurídicos de la actividad militar dicen: “26. Pide a la Unión Europea que actúe de manera que las tecnologías de armas denominadas no letales y el desarrollo de nuevas estrategias de armas estén cubiertas y reguladas por convenios internacionales; 27. Considera que el HAARP (Programa de Investigación de Alta Frecuencia Auroral Activa) es un asunto de interés mundial debido a sus considerables repercusiones sobre el medio ambiente y exige que los aspectos jurídicos, ecológicos y éticos sean investigados por un órgano internacional independiente antes de continuar la investigación y los ensayos; lamenta que el Gobierno de los Estados Unidos se haya negado reiteradamente a enviar a un representante que preste declaración, ante la audiencia pública o cualquier reunión posterior que celebre su comisión competente, sobre los riesgos medioambientales y para la población del Programa de Investigación de Alta Frecuencia Auroral Activa (HAARP) que se está financiando en la actualidad en Alaska; 28. Pide que el grupo encargado de evaluar las opciones científicas y tecnológicas (STOA) acepte examinar las pruebas científicas y técnicas disponibles en todos las conclusiones de las investigaciones que se están llevando a cabo en la actualidad sobre el programa HAARP, con el objeto de evaluar la naturaleza exacta y el grado de riesgo de este programa para el medio ambiente local y mundial, así como para la salud pública en general; 29. Pide a la Comisión que, en colaboración con los Gobiernos de Suecia, Finlandia, Noruega y la Federación Rusa, examine las repercusiones medioambientales y para la salud pública del programa HAARP para el Antártico y que le informe de sus conclusiones; 30. Pide, en particular, que se celebre un convenio internacional para la prohibición global de toda la investigación y desarrollo, ya sea militar o civil, que tenga como finalidad aplicar los conocimientos químicos, eléctricos, de vibración de sonido u otro tipo de funcionamiento del cerebro humano al desarrollo de armas que puedan permitir cualquier forma de manipulación de seres humanos, incluyendo la prohibición de cualquier despliegue actual o posible de dichos sistemas;” Hablando sobre el cambio climático se atreve a soltar esta pedazo de mentira: “La temperatura de la Tierra ha aumentado 5º en este siglo debido a un aumento de las emisiones, sobre todo de dióxido de carbono.” Sobre las armas denominadas no letales dice lo siguiente: “Las denominadas armas no letales no son un nuevo tipo de armas sino que han existido en muchos años en forma de, por ejemplo, cañones de agua, balas de goma y gas lacrimógeno. Pero actualmente se han desarrollado técnicas más avanzadas que, a pesar de que pueden causar daños graves e incluso la invalidez o la muerte, se denominan no letales. Se han desarrollado tecnologías contra material y contra personas. Un ejemplo son las armas acústicas que, al producir un ruido de bajo nivel, pueden confundir y desorientar, y de esa manera neutralizar, al enemigo. Otros ejemplos son la espuma adhesiva y el láser cegador. Los productos químicos que decoloran el agua pueden afectar tanto a la agricultura como a la población. Mediante rayos electromagnéticos se pueden destruir los sistemas de información, navegación y comunicación del enemigo. Las denominadas amas no letales también pueden utilizarse contra las infraestructuras y las autoridades de un Estado, pueden destruir el sistema de ferrocarril o producir el caos en el sector financiero de un país. La característica común de estas armas es que tienen como objetivo retrasar, obstruir y vencer a un potencial enemigo a "nivel estratégico” Sobre las armas químicas deja caer una mentira enorme: “Las medidas de las Naciones Unidas destinadas a destruir las armas químicas y otros tipos de armas de destrucción masiva en Iraq ha producido una grave preocupación sobre las repercusiones medioambientales de las actividades militares y ha subrayado la necesidad de buscar métodos ecológicos para neutralizar las armas.” Como bien sabemos a dia de hoy jamas se encontraron armas químicas en Irak por mucho que Bush hijo utilizase esa excusa para arrasar el pais. Lo que si reconoce abiertamente es la desfachatez en la salvaguarda de dichas armas químicas añadiendo: “Se ha confirmado que aproximadamente 150.000 toneladas de bombas, obuses y minas con armas químicas, principalmente gas de mostaza, fosgeno, tabun y arsénico, se depositaron en Skagerack (un estrecho marino, una de las principales rutas marítimas del norte de Europa ubicado en el norte de Europa, entre Dinamarca, Noruega y Suecia) al final de la segunda guerra mundial. En el Mar Báltico la cifra es de 40.000 toneladas. Muchos de los contenedores se encuentran completamente oxidados y las armas químicas están en contacto directo con el agua del mar. De todas formas, se ha decidido que deben permanecer en el fondo del mar ya que el riesgo de recuperarlas se considera aún mayor.” Sobre las pruebas nucleares militares dice: “La cantidad total de radiactividad liberada a la atmósfera en los ensayos atmosféricos se calcula entre 100 y 1.000 veces mayor que la producida en Chernobil.” Continua diciendo: “El plutonio es ciertamente la sustancia más peligrosa que se conoce. Muchos países poseen grandes cantidades de plutonio militar y pueden producirse armas nucleares de una forma relativamente simple a partir de plutonio "civil". Las instalaciones que actualmente tienen una función civil pueden convertirse rápidamente en fábricas de armas. En la fabricación del plutonio se producen grandes cantidades de residuos líquidos altamente radiactivos. El tratamiento de los residuos radiactivos causa problemas enormes. La producción en gran escala de armas de destrucción masiva durante las últimas décadas ha producido grandes cantidades de residuos. No existe ningún método adecuado conocido para almacenar los residuos radiactivos. Se almacenan normalmente en contenedores, pero grandes cantidades se liberan en la naturaleza. Los residuos radiactivos son extremadamente inflamables y pueden explotar si no están ventilados o refrigerados. En 1957 ocurrió un accidente en la planta nuclear Chelyabinsk-65 cerca de la ciudad de Kystym en los Urales. Un contenedor radiactivo explotó y los residuos radiactivos se extendieron en una zona de 1.000 Km2. Fue preciso evacuar a 10.000 personas. Cerca del lago Karachay, en las proximidades de Chelyabinsk-65, todavía es posible recibir, situándose simplemente en la orilla del lago, un nivel de radiactividad tal que produce la muerte instantánea. En la zona del Báltico existen extensas áreas contaminadas por antiguas actividades militares soviéticas. En Estonia, se encuentra el lago Sillanmä, también llamado el lago nuclear, que acoge residuos militares radiactivos equivalentes a miles de armas nucleares, el lago Sillanmä se encuentra a 100 metros del mar Báltico. Cualquier vertido al mar Báltico podría tener consecuencias devastadoras para el medio ambiente en toda la región del Báltico.” Luego explica sobre el HAARP y como el gobierno norteamericano se ha negado a dar ninguna explicación sobre el mismo o los usos que se le dan. “El HAARP es un proyecto de investigación que utiliza instalaciones terrestres y una red de antenas, cada una equipada con su propio transmisor, para calentar partes de la ionosfera con potentes ondas de radio. La energía generada calienta partes de la ionosfera, lo que produce agujeros en la ionosfera y "lentes" artificiales. El HAARP puede utilizarse para muchos fines. Mediante la manipulación de las características eléctricas de la ionosfera se puede controlar una gran cantidad de energía. Si se utiliza como arma militar, esta energía puede tener un impacto devastador sobre el enemigo. El HAARP puede enviar muchos millones más de energía que cualquier otro transmisor convencional. La energía también puede dirigirse a un blanco móvil, lo que podría constituir un potencial sistema antimisiles. El proyecto permite también una mejor comunicación con submarinos y la manipulación de condiciones climáticas globales. Ahora bien, también es posible hacer lo contrario e interferir las comunicaciones. Mediante la manipulación de la ionosfera se pueden bloquear las comunicaciones globales a la vez que se transmiten las propias. Otra aplicación es la penetración de la tierra (tomografía) con rayos X a una profundidad de varios kilómetros para detectar campos de petróleo y gas o instalaciones militares subterráneas.” Este punto es el que muchos consideramos se ha utilizado para crear o amplificar terremotos. Por ejemplo, yo mismo comprobé como el sistema HAARP estuvo encendido a máxima potencia el dia del terremoto que supuestamente provoco el accidente de Fukushima. “Otra aplicación es el radar sobre el horizonte, y definir objetivos a larga distancia. De esta manera, se puede detectar la aproximación de objetos más allá del horizonte. Desde la década de los cincuenta los EE.UU. han realizado explosiones de material nuclear en los cinturones Van Allen.” Esto lo contaba la monja Rosalie Bertell para explicar como la llamada anomalía del Atlantico sur fue creada por unos misiles nucleares...el proyecto Argus en 1958. Dos bombas de hidrogeno que dañaron gravemente la cubierta protectora de la Tierra. “Otra consecuencia grave de HAARP son los agujeros de la ionosfera causados por las potentes ondas de radio. La ionosfera nos protege de la radiación cósmica. Se espera que los agujeros se cierren de nuevo, pero la experiencia con la capa de ozono hace pensar lo contrario. Esto quiere decir que hay agujeros considerables en la ionosfera que nos protege. Debido a sus considerables efectos sobre el medio ambiente, HAARP es un asunto de interés mundial y debe cuestionarse si las ventajas de este sistema realmente son superiores a los riesgos. Hay que investigar los efectos ecológicos y éticos antes de proseguir con la investigación y los ensayos. HAARP es un proyecto casi desconocido y es importante que la opinión pública sepa de qué se trata. El HAARP está vinculado a 50 años de investigación espacial intensiva de marcado carácter militar, incluyendo el proyecto "guerra de las estrellas", para controlar la alta atmósfera y las comunicaciones. Este tipo de proyectos deben considerarse como una grave amenaza para el medio ambiente, con un impacto incalculable sobre la vida humana. Incluso ahora, nadie sabe el impacto que podrá tener el proyecto HAARP. Debemos luchar contra el secreto en la investigación militar. Hay que fomentar la transparencia y el acceso democrático a los proyectos de investigación militar y el control parlamentario de los mismos.” Debemos a recordar a nuestros oyentes que después de esta parrafada oficial se nos sigue llamando magufos por referirnos a este proyecto como un arma militar y esta gentuza tiene la desfachatez de decir que el proyecto HAARP infringe el Derecho internacional. Sobre lo que contamina el ámbito militar nos dicen que en un informe del año 1995 de la ONU se cita que sólo las fuerzas armadas suecas liberaron en un año 866.199 toneladas de dióxido de carbono. Tengamos en cuenta esto cuando nos piden que dejemos aparcado el coche porque contamina. Vayamos ahora a las consideraciones finales, en un informe previo de 1995 se dice textualmente: “Observando que el coste de ejecución de estas estrategias podría ascender a 774.000 millones de dólares para los próximos diez años y que esto revela la necesidad de cooperación…” 774.000 millones de dólares en 1995 equivaldrían aproximadamente a 1.610.000 millones de dólares en 2025, considerando una inflación acumulada estimada del 108%. O sea, la deuda total de España destinada a no se sabe muy bien que, aunque yo sospecho que las fumigaciones clandestinas de la geoingenieria se financian de esta manera. En sus conclusiones finales, la numero 12 dice: “Pide, en particular, que se celebre un convenio internacional para la prohibición global de toda la investigación y desarrollo, ya sea militar o civil, que tenga como finalidad aplicar los conocimientos químicos, eléctricos, de vibración de sonido u otro tipo de funcionamiento del cerebro humano al desarrollo de armas que puedan permitir cualquier forma de manipulación de seres humanos, incluyendo la prohibición de cualquier despliegue actual o posible de dichos sistemas;” Creemos que esto es papel mojado y que se sigue experimentando sin ningún control sobre esto. ………………………………………………………………………………………. ………………………………………………………………………………………. Bueno, ya está claro donde realizaremos el evento para presentar mi ultimo libro La Línea, el sitio es la ermita de la Soledad en Loriguilla (el nuevo), está en la carretera de Loriguilla a Ribarroja del Turia (CV374), se ve el promontorio a la derecha de Loriguilla. No está indicada la ermita en la rotonda que lleva hacia ella, pero se ve claramente cual es la carretera. https://maps.app.goo.gl/q7arFtPoL2RsgyWv5 El dia, el sábado dia 22 de febrero. La hora, como no puede ser de otra manera, ja, ja, ja, las 11 de la mañana. Así formamos un bonito 33 junto con el dia. Mi intención es estar en las mesas de la ermita que tiene unas vistas panorámicas muy chulas hasta la hora de comer y luego irnos a comer a un asador a Cheste. Dicho asador se llena, así que sería interesante confirmar la asistencia a la comida ya que yo encargaré una mesa por anticipado. Posiblemente se puedan ampliar plazas al llegar al evento...pero no estoy 100% seguro de eso. La comida seria a la carta y cada uno se pagaría lo suyo. El sitio suele salir a la carta por unos 35 euros, una buena comida con entrecot. También llevare algunos ejemplares de mis tres libros: Blasco Ibáñez desvelado, Ojos bien abiertos y La Línea. Del segundo y el tercero solo tengo 4 unidades de cada y son de autor, sólo hay 5 ejemplares de autor, y no se pueden comprar a Amazon. Todos son tapa blanda, el primero a 18 euros, el segundo a 25 y el tercero a 22, o sea, todos mucho mas baratos que en Amazon. El evento se trataría de pasar un rato disfrutando de las vistas y conociendonos, luego os hablaría del tercer libro y sobre las líneas ley. Finalmente haríamos (el que quiera) una especie de ritual bueno para desear que se tuerzan los planes de los malos. Se trataría de aprovechando el sitio tan energético pensar en cosas que queremos que no sucedan, nunca desear el mal a nadie, pasarnos una hoja en blanco de papel e ir pensando para nuestros adentros lo que deseamos que no ocurra y escribirlo mentalmente en la hoja. Tras pasar por todos los que participemos, la hoja la rompería diciendo tres veces, nada de esto se va a cumplir, van a fracasar vuestros planes malvados. Tras esto volveríamos a disfrutar del paisaje y charlar un poco hasta la hora de comer para salir aproximadamente a las 2 hacia la comida. El que no quiera ir a comer puede quedarse a comer con lo que el mismo traiga en este sitio, esperemos que no haya gente ocupando las mesas y salga un dia soleado. Hay mucho césped alrededor y sitio suficiente para aparcar unos cuantos coches. Lo dicho, pasaremos un dia muy agradable. No hace falta comprar ningún libro para acudir. ……………………………………………………………………………………….

Get ready for one of the most compelling disaster recovery stories we've ever featured on the Backup Wrap-up. (It's a very popular episode from a few years ago.) A veteran backup administrator shares his firsthand experience of what happened when a hurricane hit their island data center, leading to a massive flooding event that took out both their primary facility and their Iron Mountain storage location.Our guest takes us through the three-week recovery process, sharing candid details about replicating between data centers, managing petabytes of data, and dealing with the unexpected challenges that arose during the restore process.

Joseph is a SoCal based hiker, professional chef & baker, outdoor content creator, and is the creator of the amazing YouTube channel The Hiking Chef. We chatted about the origin story of The Hiking Chef YouTube vlog series, his most memorable gourmet meals he's cooked in the mountains, why California has the best hiking opportunities, the historic Echo Mountain resort, his famous Tomahawk Ribeye steak on Twin Peaks, his Iron Mountain cooking disaster, how hiking impacts our everyday lives, and he loves showcasing the best trails and hidden gems in California through his outdoor vlogs.  This episode is part of the Trek Talks series where I record on trail conversations with fellow outdoor enthusiasts. It is more raw and candid perspective of my outdoor adventures as these conversations are more unscripted and in the moment. You can even hear the sounds of nature in the background as we are recording out on the trails.  Follow Joseph Durkin on https://www.instagram.com/thehikingchef/ Subscribe to The Hiking Chef Youtube Channel on https://youtube.com/@thehikingchef Follow Just Trek on https://www.instagram.com/just.trek/ Support Just Trek on Patreon ⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/justtrek⁠⁠ Shop Just Trek merch on ⁠⁠https://www.justtrek.net/shop⁠⁠ Listen to more podcast episodes on ⁠⁠https://www.justtrek.net⁠⁠ Want to send me a message?

Here's a 2007 map that's substantively the same, but with higher resolution:View historic Norway Mountain trailmaps on skimap.org.Why I interviewed himWhat a noble act: to resurrect a dead ski area. I'll acknowledge that a ski area is just a business. But it's also a (usually) irreplaceable community asset, an organ without which the body can live but does not function quite right. We read about factories closing up and towns dying along with them. This is because the jobs leave, yes, but there's an identity piece too. As General Motors pulled out of Saginaw and Flint in the 1980s and ‘90s, I watched, from a small town nearby, those places lose a part of their essence, their swagger and character. People were proud to have a GM factory in town, to have a GM job with a good wage, to be a piece of a global something that everyone knew about.Something less profound but similar happens when a ski area shuts down. I've written before about Apple Mountain, the 200-vertical-foot bump in Freeland, Michigan where I spent my second-ever day on skis:[Apple Mountain] has been closed since 2017. Something about the snowmaking system that's either too hard or too expensive to fix. That leaves Michigan's Tri-Cities – Midland, Bay City, and Saginaw, with a total metro population approaching 400,000 – with no functioning ski area. Snow Snake is only about 40 minutes north of Midland, and Mt. Holly is less than an hour south of Saginaw. But Apple Mountain, tucked into the backwoods behind Freeland, sat dead in the middle of the triangle. It was accessible to almost any schoolkid, and, humble as it was, stoked that fire for thousands of what became lifelong skiers.What skiing has lost without Apple Mountain is impossible to calculate. I would argue that it was one of the more important ski areas anywhere. Winters in mid-Michigan are long, cold, snowy, and dull. People need something to do. But skiing is not an obvious solution: this is the flattest place you can imagine. To have skiing – any skiing – in the region was a joy and a novelty. There was no redundancy, no competing ski center. And so the place was impossibly busy at all times, minting skiers who would go off to start ski newsletters and run huge resorts on the other side of the country.When the factory closes, the jobs go, and often nothing replaces them. Losing a ski area is similar. The skiers go, and nothing replaces them. The kids just do other things. They never become skiers.Children of Men, released in 2006, envisions a world 18 years after women have stopped having babies. Humanity lives on, but has collectively lost its soul. Violence and disorder reign. The movie is heralded for its extended single-shot battle scenes, but Children of Men's most remarkable moment is when a baby, born in the midst of a firefight, momentarily paralyzes the war as her protectors parade her to sanctuary:Humanity needs babies like winter needs skiers. But we have to keep making more.Yes, I'm being hyperbolic about the importance of resurrecting a lost ski area. If you're new here, that part of My Brand™. A competing, similar-sized ski center, Pine Mountain, is only 20 minutes from Norway. But that's 13 miles, which for a kid may as well be 1,000. Re-opening Norway is going to seed new skiers. Some of them will ski four times and forget about it and some of them will take spring break trips to Colorado when they get to college and a few of them may wrap their lives around it.And if they don't ever ski? Well, who knows. I almost didn't become a skier. I was 14 when my buddy said “Hey let's take the bus to Mott Mountain after school,” and I said “OK,” and even though I was Very Bad at it, I went again a few weeks later at Apple Mountain. Both of those hills are closed now. If I were growing up in Central Michigan now, would I have become a skier? What would I be if I wasn't one? How awful would that be?What we talked aboutBack from the dead; the West Michigan snowbelt; the power of the ski family; Caberfae; Pando's not for sale; when you decide to buy a lost ski area; how lost Norway was almost lost forever; the small business mindset; surprise bills; what a ski area looks like when it's sat idle for six years; piecing a sold-off snowmaking system back together; Norway's very unique lift fleet; glades; the trailmap; Norway's new logo; the Wild West of websites; the power of social media; where to even begin when you buy a ski area; the ups and downs of living at your ski area; shifting from renovation to operation; Norway's uneven history and why this time is different; is there enough room for Pine Mountain and Norway in such a small market?; why night skiing won't return on a regular basis this winter; send the school buses; it doesn't snow much but at least it stays cold; can Norway revitalize its legendary ski school?; and why Norway joined the Freedom Pass.  Why I thought that now was a good time for this interviewHello Mr. Television Network Executive. Thank you for agreeing to hear my pitch. I understand I have 10 minutes with you, which is perfect, because what I'm proposing will take no fewer than five years, while simultaneously taking 10 years off both our lives. Because my show is called Who Wants to Own a Ski Area?The show works like this: contestants will navigate a series of logic puzzles, challenges, and obstacle courses. These will act as elimination rounds. We can base everyone at an abandoned ski resort, like in The Last of Us, where they will live while games materialize at random. Some examples:* It's 3 a.m. Everyone is sleeping. Alarms blare. A large structure has caught fire. The water has been cut off, but somehow you're standing in a knee-deep flood. Your firefighting arsenal consists of a bucket. You call the local volunteer fire department, which promises you they will “be along whenever Ed gits up here with the gay-rage door keys.” Whoever keeps the building from melting into a pile of ashes wins.* It's state inspection day. All machinery must be in working order. We present each contestant with a pile of sprockets, hoses, wires, clips, and metal parts of varying sizes and thickness. Their instructions are to rebuild this machine. We do not tell them what the machine is supposed to be. The good news is that the instruction manual is sitting right there. The bad news is that it's written in Polish. The pile is missing approximately seven to 20 percent of the machine's parts, without which the device may operate, but perhaps not in a way compatible with human life. Whoever's put-together machine leads to the fewest deaths advances to the next round.* The contestants are introduced to Big Jim. Big Jim has worked at the ski area since 1604. He has been through 45 ownership groups, knows everything about the mountain, and everyone on the mountain. Because of this, Big Jim knows you can't fire him lest you stoke a rebellion of labor and/or clientele. And he can tell you which pipes are where without you having to dig up half the mountain. But Big Jim keeps as much from getting done as he actually does. He resists the adoption of “fads” such as snowmaking, credit cards, and the internet. The challenge facing contestants is to get Big Jim to send a text message. He asks why the letters are arranged “all stupid” on the keyboard. The appearance of an emoji causes him to punch the phone several times and heave it into the woods.* Next we introduce the contestants to Fran and Freddy Filmore from Frankenmuth. The Filmores have been season passholders since the Lincoln Administration. They have nine kids in ski school, each of which has special dietary needs. Their phones are loaded with photos of problems: of liftlines, of dirt patches postholing trails, of an unsmiling parking attendant, of abandoned boot bags occupying cafeteria tables, of skis and snowboards and poles scattered across the snow rather than being placed on the racks that are right there for goodness sake. The Filmores want answers. The Filmores also want you to bring back Stray Cat Wednesdays, in which you could trade a stray cat for a lift ticket. But the Filmores are not actually concerned with solutions. No matter the quickness or efficacy of a remedy, they still “have concerns.” Surely you have 90 minutes to discuss this. Then the fire alarm goes off.* Next, the contestents will meet Hella Henry and his boys Donuts, Doznuts, Deeznuts, Jam Box, and 40 Ounce. HH and the Crushnutz Krew, as they call themselves, are among your most loyal customers. Though they are all under the age of 20, it is unclear how any of them could attend school or hold down a job, since they are at your hill for 10 to 12 hours per day. During that time, the crew typically completes three runs. They spend the rest of their time vaping, watching videos on their phones, and sitting six wide just below a blind lip in the terrain park. The first contestant to elicit a response from the Crushnutz Krew that is anything other than “that's chill” wins.The victor will win their very own ski area, complete with a several-thousand person Friends of [Insert Ski Area Name] group where 98 percent of the posts are complaints about the ski area. The ski center will be functional, but one popped bolt away from catastrophe in four dozen locations. The chairlifts will be made by a company that went out of business in 1912. The groomer will be towed by a yak. The baselodge will accommodate four percent of the skiers who show up on a busy day. The snowmaking “system” draws its water from a birdbath. Oh, and it's in the middle of nowhere in the middle of winter, and they're going to have to find people to work there.Oh, you love it Mr. Television Network Executive? That's so amazing. Now I can quit my job and just watch the money pile up. What do I do for a living? Well, I run a ski area.Hoppe won the contest. And I wanted to wish him luck.What I got wrongI lumped Ski Brule in with Pine Mountain as ski areas that are near Norway. While only 20-ish minutes separate Pine and Norway, Brule is in fact more than an hour away.Why you should ski Norway MountainYou can ski every run on Norway Mountain in one visit. There's something satisfying in that. You can drive off at the end of the day and not feel like you missed anything.There are hundreds of ski areas in North America like this. Most of them manage, somehow, to stuff the full spectrum of ski experience into an area equal to one corner of one of Vail's 90 or whatever Legendary Back Bowls. There are easy runs and hard runs. Long runs and short runs. Narrow runs and wide runs. Runs under the lifts and runs twisting through the trees. Some sort of tree-skiing. Some sort of terrain park. A little windlip that isn't supposed to be a cornice but skis like one, 9-year-olds leaping off it one after the next and turning around to watch each other after they land. Sometimes there is powder. Sometimes there is ice. Sometimes the grooming is magnificent. Sometimes the snow really sucks. Over two to four hours and 20 to 30 chairlift rides, you can fully absorb what a ski area is and why it exists.This is an experience that is more difficult to replicate at our battleship resorts, with 200 runs scribbled over successive peaks like a medieval war map. I ski these resorts differently. Where are the blacks? Where are the trees? Where are the bumps? I go right for them and I don't bother with anything else. And that eats up three or four days even at a known-cruiser like Keystone. In a half-dozen trips into Little Cottonwood Canyon, I've skied a top-to-bottom groomer maybe twice. Because skiing groomers at Alta-Snowbird is like ordering pizza at a sushi restaurant. Like why did you even come here?But even after LCC fluff, when I've descended back to the terrestrial realm, I still like skiing the Norway Mountains of the land. Big mountains are wonderful, but they come with big hassle, big crowds, big traffic, big attitudes, big egos. At Norway you can pull practically up to the lifts and be skiing seven minutes later, after booting up and buying your lift ticket. You can ski right onto the lift and the guy in the Carhartt will nod at you and if you're just a little creative and thoughtful every run will feel distinct. And you can roll into the chalet and grab a pastie and bomb the whole mountain again after lunch.And it will all feel different on that second lap. When there are 25 runs instead of 250, you absorb them differently. The rush to see it all evaporates. You can linger with it, mingle with the mountain, talk to it in a way that's harder up top. It's all so awesome in its own way.Podcast NotesOn Pando Ski CenterI grew up about two hours from the now-lost Pando Ski Center, but I never skied there. When I did make it to that side of Michigan, I opted to ski Cannonsburg, the still-functioning multi-lift ski center seven minutes up the road. Of course, in the Storm Wandering Mode that is my default ski orientation nowadays, I would have simply hit both. But that's no longer possible, because Cannonsburg purchased Pando in 2015 and subsequently closed it. Probably forever.Hoppe and I discuss this a bit on the pod. He actually tried to buy the joint. Too many problems with it, he was told. So he bought some of the ski area's snowguns and other equipment. Better that at least something lives on.Pando didn't leave much behind. The only trailmap I can find is part of this Ski write-up from February 1977:Apparently Pando was a onetime snowboarding hotspot. Here's a circa 2013 video of a snowboarder doing snowboarderly stuff:On CannonsburgWhile statistically humble, with just 250 vertical feet, Cannonsburg is the closest skiing to metropolitan Grand Rapids, Michigan, population 1.08 million. That ensures that the parks-oriented bump is busy at all times:On CaberfaeOne of Hoppe's (and my) favorite ski areas is Caberfae. This was my go-to when I lived in Central Michigan, as it delivered both decent vert (485 feet), and an interesting trail network (the map undersells it):The Meyer family has owned and operated Caberfae for decades, and they constantly improve the place. GM Tim Meyer joined me on the pod a few years back to tell the story.On Norway's proximity to Pine MountainNorway sits just 23 minutes down US 2 from Pine Mountain. The two ski areas sport eerily similar profiles: both measure 500 vertical feet and run two double chairs and one triple. Both face the twin challenges of low snowfall (around 60 inches per season), and a relatively thin local population base (Iron Mountain's metro area is home to around 32,500 people). It's no great surprise that Norway struggled in previous iterations. Here's a look at Pine:On Big TupperI mention Big Tupper as a lost ski area that will have an extra hard time coming back since it's been stripped (I think completely), of snowmaking. This ski area isn't necessarily totally dead: the lifts are still standing, and the property is going to auction next month, but it will take tens of millions to get the place running again. It was at one time a fairly substantial operation, as this circa 1997 trailmap shows:On Sneller chairliftsNorway runs two Sneller double chairs. Only one other Sneller is still spinning, at Ski Sawmill, a short and remote Pennsylvania bump. Lift Blog catalogued the machine here. It wasn't spinning when I skied Sawmill a couple of years ago, but I did snag some photos:On Norway's new logoIn general, animals make good logos. Hoppe designed this one himself:On social mediaHoppe has done a nice job of updating Norway's rebuild progress on social media, mostly via the mountain's Facebook page. Here are links to a few other social accounts we discussed:* Skiers and Snowboarders of the Midwest is a big champion of ski areas of all sizes throughout the region. The Midwest Skiers group is pretty good too.* Magic Mountain, Vermont, an underdog for decades, finally dug itself out of the afterthoughts pile at least in part due to the strength of its Instagram and Twitter presence.* The formerly dumpy Holiday Mountain, New York, has meticulously documented its rebuild under new ownership on Instagram and Facebook.On NeighborsMy 17-year-old brain could not comprehend the notion that two ski areas operated across the street from – and independent of – one another. But there they were: Nub's Nob and Boyne Highlands (now The Highlands), each an opposite turn off Pleasantview Road.We turned right, to Nub's, because we were in high school and because we all made like $4.50 an hour and because Nub's probably had like 10-Cent Tuesdays or something.I've since skied both mountains many times, but the novelty has never faded. Having one of something so special as a ski area in your community is marvelous. Having two is like Dang who won the lottery? There are, of course, examples of this all over the country – Sugarbush/Mad River Glen, Stowe/Smugglers' Notch, Alta/Snowbird, Timberline/Meadows/Skibowl – and it's incredible how distinct each one's identity remains even with shared borders and, often, passes.On UP ski areasMichigan's Upper Peninsula is a very particular animal. Only three percent of the state's 10 million residents live north of the Mackinac (pronounced Mackinaw) Bridge. Lower Peninsula skiers are far more likely to visit Colorado or Vermont than their far-north in-state ski areas, which are a 10-plus hour drive from the more populous southern tiers. While Bohemia's ultra-cheap pass and rowdy terrain have somewhat upset that equation, the UP remains, for purposes of skiing and ski culture, essentially a separate state.My point is that it's worth organizing the state's ski areas in the way that they practically exist in skiers minds. So I've separated the UP from the Lower Peninsula. Since Michigan is also home to an outsized number of town ropetows, I've also split surface-lift-only operations into their own categories:On last winter being very bad with record-low skier visitsSkier visits were down in every region of the United States last winter, but they all but collapsed in the Midwest, with a 26.7 percent plunge, according to the annual Kottke Demographic Report. Michigan alone was down nearly a half million skier visits. Check out these numbers:For comparison, overall skier numbers dropped just six percent in the Northeast, and five percent in the Rockies.The Storm publishes year-round.

Flexibility in the workplace is a hot topic, but 2024 Everywhere Work reports show a stark reality: only 25% of workers feel their work environment is highly flexible. We need to bridge this gap for a truly adaptable workforce. In this episode host Ira S Wolfe and Ivanti's CMO Melissa Puls peel back the layers of IT and security, and trust us, it's more challenging than you'd ever expect. We tackle the crippling silo effect, dig into the exponential growth of security vulnerabilities, and explore the intricate dance between CIOs, CISOs, and HR. It can feel like you're trying to thread a needle with one hand tied behind your back.  Here are seven insightful nuggets about IT, security, workplace flexibility, and employee experience in the future of work: 1. When IT and security team up, magic happens. Collaboration is key. Silos? Not so much. Keeping data and systems separate hampers both productivity and security. 2. Discovering and securing every connected device is like looking for a needle in a haystack. But boy, is it necessary! CIOs and CSOs need to collaborate, not compete. 3. Think of workplace security like a well-locked door; it must be secure but easy to use. Balancing strict security measures with practicality can save your company from headaches. 4. Employee experience isn't just a fluffy HR term. It translates directly to customer experience, and ultimately, your company's success. And surprise, surprise: IT and security have a huge impact on it. 5. Do you think digital employee experience doesn't matter? Many employees would rather leave a company with a lousy digital setup than stay—even if they love everything else. 6. Flexibility in the workplace is still a work in progress. Only 25% of workers feel their environment is highly flexible. 7. The future of work is here and now, and it's all about flexibility, security, and connection. This episode drives home the point that thriving in today's fast-paced world means embracing flexibility, working smarter, and fostering strong connections and cultures within our workplaces. So, stay agile, stay secure, and stay connected! Plus: The top 5 Things every small and medium business manager should know: The Future of Work is here now . Everywhere Work is here to stay Flexibility is key for the Employee Experience and Engagement. Everywhere work is about flexibility, not the place. Security is critical to make sure employees and customers are safe. Education and training is essential. Connection and Culture are more challenging in a hybrid environment but not impossible Employee Experience translates to Customer Experience --  and it is all about Customers and the Customer Journey.

Mark Reed-Edwards: My guest on Confessions of a Marketer today is Ed Evarts—author of The Bravery Trick: Four Ways to Say Hard Things. The book has been praised by scholar Amy Edmonson of Harvard Business School as untangling the behavior of bravery in ways that allow us to move forward. The Bravery Trick (https://www.amazon.com/-/es/Ed-Evarts/dp/1734500441) is available on Amazon. Ed is the founder and president of Excellius Leadership Development, which focuses on helping its clients build awareness of how others experience them in the workplace so they can manage that experience effectively. He's written two other books and is host of the Be Brave at Work podcast. If you're wondering what bravery has to do with marketing, well, everything, really. So be brave and keep listening. I've also known Ed for longer than I'd care to admit, but it's great to have him here. Ed, welcome. Ed Evarts: Thank you, Mark. I think we met when we were toddlers, or at least. Mark Reed-Edwards: Yeah, preschool. Yeah. But anyway, we won't go into that. Could you tell me a bit about your career and what led you to found Excellius? Ed Evarts: So I spent a number of years post college working in retail and worked for a number of local New England retailers, Jordan Marsh, Filene's and Lechmere, who are all gone. I left retailing in 1998 and began working at a records management company called Iron Mountain. I was at Iron Mountain for almost 10 years. I got laid off from Iron Mountain in 2008 and was at a juncture in my life where I really didn't want to work for a company any longer. And so I spent that summer networking and talking with people about how to start your own business, which for somebody who had been employed with others for my whole career, I had no idea how to start my own business and what to focus on. So I did that that summer. And then in the fall of 2008, decided to open up my own practice, which at first I called Evart's Coaching because I wanted people to know who I was and what I was doing. And then two to three years later converted it to Excellius Leadership Development. Mark Reed-Edwards: It's funny how layoffs can have a catalytic effect on your life, not just economically, but sometimes success can come out of the hardest points in your life. Ed Evarts: Well, I have built a new relationship with the person who laid me off at iron mountain. And just to tell that story quickly: my performance review was late and this boss called me and said, "Ed, I'm ready to give you your performance review. Can you come to my office at four o'clock today?" And I said, "Sure." So I was excited to get my performance review. I went into her office and I sat down and she said, "In reality, Ed, I'm not here to give you your performance review. I'm here to let you know that we've made a decision to eliminate your role at the company." So for that day and for a few years following it, it was the worst day of my professional career. And I can say with all honesty, Mark, 16 years later, it was the best day of my professional career because they kicked me out and I had to make some decisions, which I was not anticipating needing to make. And it just opened up a whole slew of opportunities. And I joke, I think today I'd still be at Iron Mountain if I didn't get kicked out. And so to your point, it was you know, a great, great opportunity that at first felt horrible. Mark Reed-Edwards: I have a similar story, which we won't go into, because this is all about you, Ed. So, I'd love you to share the story about your podcast, Be Brave at Work. Ed Evarts: So I would say about five years ago, I had coffee with a colleague that I worked with at Lechmere, I think 20 years previously. And so when I left Lechmere, this person and I did not stay in contact at all. And then when I left Iron Mountain in 2008, we began connecting virtually. And so said hi on LinkedIn and checked in on LinkedIn. And I think about 10 years after that, he said, let's go get a coffee, let's catch up and hear what's going on in our careers. So we met for a cup of coffee at the proverbial Starbucks in Waltham and we were updating each other on our careers. And he told me he was starting a podcast production company. And I said something innocent, like, "Wow, I've always wanted to start a podcast." And he said, "Gee, Ed, what would it be on?" And I said, I really believe without missing a beat, "I think I'd want to talk about being brave at work." And so that wonderful colleague who I met and who sparked this idea of being brave at work is none other than the great Mark Reed-Edwards. Mark Reed-Edwards: No, that's me? Ed Evarts: That's you. Mark Reed-Edwards: That was a really interesting conversation that we had, because it was, quite innocently, it was just a couple of people who hadn't seen each other in 20 something years, just grabbing coffee and updating them. And it shows the value of meeting face to face and just having conversations with no pretext and what can come from that. Out of the conversation rose Be Brave at Work. Ed Evarts: Yeah. And it was a great combination, Mark, between your sincerity and interest in helping me kick off a podcast and making it work, and my commitment and interest in doing it, that led me to host almost 270 conversations with business leaders and professors and many average everyday people on bravery at work that ultimately led me to author the book that you mentioned earlier that came out in May of this year called The Bravery Trick. So all of that started with this innocuous, innocent little cup of coffee at a Starbucks. Mark Reed-Edwards: And was the book something that was kind of percolating as you were producing episode 50, or was it something that when you got through all 270 or whatever it is that you thought out of that, I should be able to get a book. When when did the book start rising up as an idea? Ed Evarts: So I don't know at what podcast the idea started to generate, but I did have one of those moments where I said, "You know, there's a book here. I'm hearing similar theories and philosophies and experiences from real people in the real world." So this isn't stuff I just sat back and created in the, you know, the confines of my office, but in listening to people and their experiences and the regret that they felt not saying something that was hard to say or doing something that was hard to do that I thought could result in a book. I'm a big fan of the number three. And so, as you mentioned I needed a third book in order to satisfy my need to do things in threes, and so this became the recent book. Mark Reed-Edwards: And the book is fascinating. I got it over the weekend. And I'm interested as I page through it, there is a section on Reasons to be Brave. Can you go into that and share a bit about the reasons we should be brave? Ed Evarts: When I wrote the book, Mark, I really wanted to write it in a way that can connect with everyday, average people. I didn't want it to be too professorial or 800 pages, but I wanted it to be kind of a simple, easy to understand, easy to read, overview of ideas and suggestions on how you could be brave at work. And there are an innumerable number of benefits that we lose or don't take advantage of for ourselves by not being brave at work. So for example, in the book, I talk a little bit about spiritual development that by being brave at work and saying something that's hard to say to a colleague or doing something that might be hard to do can actually help you feel better because you get it out of your head and out of your system. It might be something that's stressing you out or making you feel uncomfortable. And if you never do anything about it, it might cause you to make bad decisions. So there's a spiritual development that can happen by saying something to a colleague that can be helpful to them. There's also mental development, right? So, saying something that may be hard to say or doing something that may be hard to do helps build your mental capacity as a leader. We all want to be effective, impactful leaders and yet we can't get there unless we're doing things that help us grow and evolve. And, you know, I love and I mentioned in the book a quote from former first lady Michelle Obama who said, "Through my education, I didn't just develop skills, I didn't just develop my ability to learn, I developed confidence." And so there's this ability mentally to be more confident with what you do and who you are. And then the last benefit is physical development. That there's this whole brain arena that I touch on quickly but don't go into great detail that allows certain things in your brain to work in a way that helps you grow and develop. So it helps you physically be brave at work. It helps you spiritually and it helps you mentally say things respectfully and professionally at all times to a colleague, friend, a next door neighbor, a family member, whoever it might be in ways that help them. Mark Reed-Edwards: But are there things that an organization, a company, can do to encourage bravery? To encourage me as an employee going to my manager with an idea that could help the company. In some cases that dynamic between the employee and the manager is fraught because the employee is afraid to raise his or her hand to make a suggestion because it might get shot down, you know, even though the employee might think it's a great idea. Ed Evarts: You're dead on. And one of the obstacles that currently exists to being brave at work is: does our culture recognize it or honor it? And if I work in an organization where raising my hand and making a suggestion is not well received or is not honored or respected, my likelihood for doing it even if I want to do it is diminished. And so in the book I talked a little bit about the fact that being brave at work is a two way street. I need to have the skills and capabilities to say what I need to say or do what I need to do in a very helpful and respectful way. But I need to know that the other person is going to receive it well. If I wanted to tell you something, Mark, that I think is hard to say, or I'm not sure if you're going to receive it well, but we have a great relationship, you know that I want to help you, I'm motivated to help you, your likelihood for listening and participating in that is significantly more likely than if you're not that way, right? That if I think it's just going to fall on deaf ears and won't make a difference. So the culture we exist in is significant, and ironically, the person you mentioned at the start of the podcast, Amy Edmondson, Is an expert--global expert--on something called psychological safety, which is this arena or culture we create where I can be who I need to be professionally and respectfully. But if I'm at a meeting and I need you to repeat something or I need to make a recommendation that's controversial, I can do it without feeling judged or belittled or get, you know, people getting defensive or argumentative. So the culture we create is super important to ensure people can be brave at work. Mark Reed-Edwards: So, yeah, boy, it's such a big topic in marketing, I think, which is where I've made my living because we're always trying to come up with ideas, be creative or present data that may not be what our superiors want to hear. So I'm going to encourage everybody I know in marketing to pick up this book. So can you share a bit about the Bravery Trick Model? Ed Evarts: I can, but before we go there, Mark, I'm just curious as you talk about individuals who focus on marketing or have a career in marketing, do you believe that all of them have opportunities to be braver, to say something that might be hard to say, or do something that might be hard to do --respectfully and professionally at all times? But I mean, do you think these opportunities exist out there for people who focus on marketing? Mark Reed-Edwards: Oh yeah. And I mean, in my area, it's all about ideas. So when I present a concept, sometimes you're maybe a little hesitant to say, well, here's my real idea. You're trying to gauge what the reception would be for an outlandish idea. And so maybe you go with a safe option. Ed Evarts: Yeah, I am not an expert in marketing, but based on my expertise in bravery, I have to believe that marketing and the activity of marketing, especially this model of idea creation requires bravery constantly, that you constantly... Mark Reed-Edwards: Mm hmm. Ed Evarts: ...have to say, "wow, great idea. This is going to be very interesting or controversial. How do I present it? How do I share it with others? What way can I engage others in respect to adopting this idea or at least considering it, right? How do I make it a candidate for something that we want to do?" Mark Reed-Edwards: It requires bravery to press send on an email campaign. It requires bravery to push a website live after you've totally renovated a website. It requires bravery for me as, you know, someone who makes a living as a writer, sometimes to send a draft to a client. But, but you do those things as a matter of course, maybe you don't even think that it's brave to do that. Ed Evarts: Yeah, I think a lot of times we do things that others think require bravery and we ourselves don't. Or required a ton of bravery that people think were easy to do. So bravery is complex in respect to its existence in the workplace. And again, I hope people find time to purchase the book and think about some ideas. And I want to go back to the question you asked earlier, which was the bravery trick model. So based on the feedback that I heard from the people I interviewed in the podcast, we also did a survey of the marketplace in respect to bravery as it exists in the workplace. My own experiences being a corporate leader for 20 plus years, and my relationship with clients for the last 16 years in all different industries at all different levels. You know, the model is essentially made up of four areas, which is Practice, Presence, Future Focus, and Flexibility. If you practice what it is that you want to say, that you're very present at the meeting, and ensure the person knows that you're all in on what it is that you're talking about, that you focus on the future, you focus on where you're going, not where you've been, and you're flexible with the outcomes and decisions and next steps, your likelihood for being brave at work is increased. Mark Reed-Edwards: The thing that I like about the book is that it's really easy to follow. So as you said, you know, it's not a 400 page treatise on bravery. It's a really approachable, well organized book. So I recommend people go out and get it on Amazon right now. Finally, and maybe this is where marketing and bravery intersect: what's the experience of marketing and launching a book? That took some bravery, I would think, right? Ed Evarts: I don't know if it took bravery. It certainly took diligence but yeah, I mean, you know, bravery again is very hard to define and very hard to understand what again might have been a brave thing for me. You know, there are some people who going to a networking event is bravery for them. It's very hard to walk into a room with people they've never met and interact. And many people don't even do it because of that reason. For me, I could walk in and, next thing, you know, I've got 10 new best friends. So it's a no brainer, but you know, I think it's diligence and persistence. I think all books need to have some type of model or premise that you're operating around that you want to share. Everything I write, Mark is designed to educate and help others. And that's why it's written in the way that it's written. I've been a big fan of business books throughout my career. I've read a million business books, and the ones I remember most, and the ones that I'm most attracted to and go back to, are the ones that are simply written, right? They're written by people for people. And they're, again, they're not this 400 page, you know, encyclopedia type book on whatever topic it is that you're reading. Like you, I hope folks have an opportunity to read it and walk away with one or two ideas that they can integrate into their style that will help them be braver at work. Mark Reed-Edwards: Well, it's great, Ed, and it's great reconnecting with you after a while. I hope the, the book continues to do well, and I wish you luck in the future. Thanks for joining me. Ed Evarts: Thanks, Mark. It's been great chatting with you. Mark Reed-Edwards: We'll see you on the next Confessions of a Marketer.
