In 1848, a 13-pound iron rod exploded through Phineas Gage's skull, destroyed half his brain, and flew out the other side—but instead of dying, he sat up, spoke clearly, and walked nearly a mile to see a doctor... and that's just the beginning of the story!Support our Halloween “Overcoming the Darkness” campaign to help people with depression: https://weirddarkness.com/HOPEIN THIS EPISODE: I've covered numerous stories here in the podcast on people gone missing, never to be seen again. But it's much more rare to have a story about a corpse going missing, never to be seen again. (How Daniel Murdock Saved on Funeral Expenses) *** One thing that has always been a constant in human history is adultery; as is the jilted spouse always being angry about it. One thing that has not been a constant is how society judges those involved in the infidelity. In 1885, there were different opinions about both adulterers as well as the one who murders a homewrecker. (Shot By a Jealous Husband) *** Part of the tablet's translation, according to Isaac Newton, states: “By this means you shall have the glory of the whole world and thereby all obscurity shall fly from you. Its force is above all force, for it vanquishes every subtle thing and penetrates every solid thing.” Cryptic yes, but it appears to indicate immense power for the one who understands and wields it. It comes from the Emerald Tablet – and it's no surprise there are many now who want to know where it is. (The Mystery of the Emerald Tablet) *** The Shimokubo Dam in Japan is unique in that it is supposedly haunted. I've heard of haunted lakes, and haunted roads that go around lakes or past lakes, but I've never heard of a lake that was created by a haunted dam. Shimokubo Dam is supposedly so haunted, that Japan says the stream of ghost hunters and paranormal enthusiasts is out of control. (Japan's Haunted Dam) *** A mysterious creature is reported to be living near a bridge in Zimbabwe which has killed numerous men. What is the Beast of Gwanda Town? (Beast of Gwanda Town) *** A year before the infamous Lizzie Bordon was born, came the birth of Lizzie Halliday – who, though becoming less well known, went on to commit atrocities that would've made Lizzie Bordon's stomach turn. (The Worst Woman on Earth) *** 
His story is legendary. One day while working on the railroad, Phineas Gage tapped on an iron rod that set off an explosion which sent the iron spike through his skull, destroying parts of his brain… yet he lived. But it changed his life… his personality… and it changed the medical and psychological world forever.

Reports linking the Kinahan cartel to Zimbabwe suggest that Christy Kinahan Sr. and his network have been attempting to use the country as a base of operations for laundering money, acquiring property, and facilitating international travel. Investigations revealed that Kinahan has made multiple visits to Zimbabwe, leaving digital traces such as Google reviews for Harare hotels and local businesses, implying direct physical presence. Local media and anti-corruption groups allege that certain Zimbabwean political figures have provided protection to Kinahan, allowing him to operate discreetly. Sources claim he has maintained offices in Harare under associates' names and cultivated relationships with business intermediaries in the gold and aviation sectors.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Send us a textWhat if the bravest promise a father can make isn't “I'd die for my kids,” but “I'll live for them”? That line sits at the center of our conversation with Dr. Jarett Stopforth—a scientist, founder, and devoted dad whose journey runs from Zimbabwe and South Africa to Seattle, with stops in academia, startups, and a few blistering hikes that reset his bond with his kids.We dig into the values that shaped him—humility from a preacher father, grit from a mother who crossed class lines—and how those roots guide the way he co‑parents with intention and generosity. Jared opens up about reframing divorce as an opportunity to go all‑in on fatherhood, trading convenience for presence, and using travel to teach empathy and gratitude. He also breaks down a practical health blueprint for modern dads: high‑protein nutrition, daily steps, strength training, more sleep and sunlight, and less alcohol. Then we get into men's health at a deeper level—why testosterone matters, how today's lifestyle suppresses it, and what it looks like to support your body's natural systems before considering hormones.From the origin story of 21 Again to the choice to protect weekends and summers at all costs, this is a story about building a life strong enough to carry the people you love. If you've felt drained, distant, or stuck on autopilot, you'll leave with a clear, doable plan to reclaim energy, show up with patience, and create the kind of memories your kids will remember. Hit play, share with a friend who needs a nudge, and if this conversation helps, subscribe and leave a review so more dads can find it.Support the showPlease don't forget to leave us a review wherever you consume your podcasts!

What causes leaders to lose their way? It's rarely one catastrophic decision, it's usually the slow drift of small compromises, unaddressed habits, and unchecked desires. In this episode, Peter Greer talks about the hidden currents that pull leaders off course. We explore the dangers of personal and mission drift, the importance of confession and accountability, the tension between culture and structure, and why humility and downward mobility are essential for long-term faithfulness. Peter shares practical tools - from succession planning to building rhythms of transparency - that help leaders prevent drift and finish well.Peter Greer is the president and CEO of HOPE International, a global Christ-centered nonprofit working to alleviate poverty through entrepreneurship and discipleship in Africa, Asia, Latin America, and Eastern Europe.

Host of The Connectors Podcast Quinten Sheriff was raised in a sheltered environment in Zimbabwe.

« La sentence est tombée, lourde comme un couperet dans le silence feutré de la Haute cour militaire, constate Le Journal de Kinshasa. Ce mardi, l'ombre de Joseph Kabila a été officiellement condamnée à la peine de mort. Pour "trahison" et "participation à un mouvement insurrectionnel", la justice militaire a tranché. Aucune circonstance atténuante n'a été retenue. Le principal concerné, qui vit en exil, n'était qu'un fantôme. Le réquisitoire, impitoyable, dressait le portrait d'un homme non plus en chef d'État, mais en chef de guerre. La Cour a épousé ces allégations, peignant une réalité sombre. Elle affirme que, dans l'ombre, l'ancien président tenait à Goma et Bukavu de "véritables réunions d'état-major". Il inspectait des centres d'instruction de rebelles et se comportait en "chef incontesté de tous les mouvements rebelles" (…). Le jugement est sans appel : Joseph Kabila est désormais qualifié de "chef de la coalition AFC/M23" ». Pas de réaction pour l'instant de l'intéressé. Juste un communiqué de son parti, le FCC, le Front commun pour le Congo, publié sur le site congolais 7 sur 7 : « le FCC dénonce "la restauration de la dictature" et l'instrumentalisation "croissante, tant de la justice que de la puissance publique à des fins politiques". Le FCC, qui se positionne comme une force politique "considérable" de l'opposition, promet de combattre cette condamnation qu'elle juge "inacceptable" ». Séisme politique… Ce « verdict est une première depuis l'indépendance du Congo, en 1960 », constate le site spécialisé sur la RDC Afrikarabia : « avec une peine très lourde, des dommages et intérêts pour les victimes de l'AFC/M23 stratosphériques de plus de 30 milliards de dollars (soit deux fois le budget de l'État congolais), et désormais un ancien président en cavale et recherché par la justice congolaise. (…) Cette condamnation à mort de Kabila représente un petit séisme politique en RDC, pointe encore Afrikarabia. Ce verdict résonne d'abord comme un message d'avertissement et "préventif" à l'attention de toutes les personnes qui souhaiteraient rejoindre les rangs rebelles. (…) Et elle brise une possible coalition anti-Tshisekedi, avec à sa tête Joseph Kabila associé à une myriade d'opposants. Elle disqualifie enfin l'ex-président, aux yeux de Kinshasa, comme interlocuteur à un potentiel dialogue national ». Un « goût d'inachevé » ? Pour Le Monde Afrique, « en l'absence de l'accusé et sans avocat pour le défendre à l'issue d'une instruction bâclée, ce procès expéditif laisse un goût d'inachevé ». Avec « des charges qui reposent implicitement sur l'autorité, directe mais supposée, qu'exercerait Joseph Kabila sur la rébellion du M23. (…) D'un naturel taiseux, naviguant entre le Zimbabwe – où, selon une source, il se trouverait actuellement –, l'Afrique du Sud et la Zambie, l'ancien président avait finalement brisé le silence le 18 mars dernier, depuis Johannesburg, rappelle Le Monde Afrique, pour nier tout lien avec le M23. La plupart des observateurs jugent toutefois que Corneille Nangaa (l'un de ses fidèles lorsqu'il était au pouvoir) ne serait pas entré dans la rébellion armée sans, au minimum, l'onction de Joseph Kabila ». Et « beaucoup ont cru discerner l'ambition de ce dernier de revenir aux affaires lorsque Corneille Nangaa a exprimé son intention de renverser le pouvoir par les armes ». « Attiser le feu » ? La presse ouest-africaine s'interroge : « à quoi servira cette condamnation de Joseph Kabila ? » se demande WakatSéra à Ouagadougou. « N'est-ce pas plutôt le meilleur moyen de raidir les positions et d'attiser le feu dans l'est de la RD Congo ? (…) En tout cas, les populations civiles continuent, elles, de vivre l'enfer, alors que la convoitise des acteurs et commanditaires de la guerre, pour les richesses minières de la RD Congo, ne fait que croître ». Enfin pour Ledjely en Guinée, ce « verdict pourrait être perçu par l'opposition politique congolaise comme une manœuvre d'intimidation à l'encontre de toutes les voix dissidentes, en prévision du troisième mandat que Félix Tshisekedi caresse en secret l'ambition de briguer. C'est dire, conclut le site guinéen, que la condamnation prononcée contre Kabila pourrait contribuer à dégrader davantage les rapports de confiance entre les acteurs de la scène politique congolaise. Une méfiance qui ne pourra que galvaniser ceux dont les intérêts prospèrent dans l'insécurité chronique qui sévit en RDC depuis une trentaine d'années ».

A new HIV prevention drug will be made available at a lower cost in over 100 low-income countries within two years, including across Africa. It's a move expected to give millions access to the breakthrough treatment and potentially bring the world closer to ending the HIV/Aids epidemic. So, how affordable and effective is it? Also, Zimbabwe continues on a quest to become Africa's blueberry capital after recently signing a tariff free export agreement with China, one of the largest consumers of the fruit. What impact will it have on the country?

I'm so glad you're here to take a listen to Rachel's stories of her grandmother's gardens in Zimbabwe and her life growing up in Australia.Throughout her life, Rachel has travelled and lived in London, Hong King and Tel Aviv. Now she lives in Manhattan and says she "pretty much lives for cooking and entertaining.  The history of food, it's culture and migration, as well as its ability to bring people together over a diverse and lively table is why I love what I do."  It's been ten years since she and her co-founders, Lisa Mendelson and Monica Molenaar, began Seed + Mill.As a little girl, Rachel's has fond memories of running through her grandparent's gardens in Zimbabwe, climbing avocado and mango trees. This was the beginning of her passion for what she enjoys today. What she began to understand as she got a little older was her grandparents experience immigrating to Africa from Prague, formerly referred to as the capital city of Czechoslovakia.  Today, Prague is the capital of the Czech Republic.  Her grandparents were Holocaust survivors and fled Prague in order to begin a new life. Jane ,Rachel's mother, was born and lived in Zimbabwe until she was about eighteen years old. Jane eventually fell in love, got married, moved to London then settled in Sydney, Australia with her husband. My guest shares wonderful stories of her mother, Jane.  "She was incredibly generous, passionate about many things, loved to share whatever she was interested in, whether with her family, or share with her friends and neighbors. Whatever she was excited about she loved to share with other people. She was a horticulturalist and a physical therapist." Jane also worked in obstetrics helping pregnant women and post-natal mothers.In looking back at Jane's childhood, "it was different from what it looked like from the outside. Her parents had been traumatized because of their experience as Holocaust survivors.  They were trying to rebuild their lives, but it had taken a toll on all of them. That experience, Rachel shares, "impacted mom's sense of identity."Jane was brave and resilient, according to Rachel. "She longed for nurture and really deep and meaningful relationships with people. She received and she gave that encouragement in equal measures."When asked if Rachel felt safe and secure in her home growing up, her response was, "I always felt safe and secure and felt lots of love from my mother. In lots of ways, in an unconscious and  unspoken way, I was always worried about her mental health. I could feel that generational trauma from my grandmother to my mother and now probably to me. And I am mindful of this to my own daughter."This is such a loving and beautiful story of women who loved one another unconditionally, yet there were barriers that couldn't be broken.Though Rachel's mother has passed away, Rachel says she speaks with her everyday. She visited her mother in Australia several time in her last remaining monthsand weeks.  As she was by her mother's bedside, she wrote her most recent cook book "Sesame."   She turned in her transcript for the book and the very next day, her mother passed away.Rachel is so proud of all that her mother did for she and her younger sister. "She was always committed and worked really hard. She filled her time and days and relationships to not feel her own pain."Thank you for being so open and honest Rachel.  It was an absolutely pleasure to meet your mum through your eyes and your heart.Contact Information:Instagram: seedandmillIf you're looking for information about Rachel's NEW Cookbook "Sesame" click on this link and then click on "cookbook" on the top left banner.

Die Regterlike Dienskommissie betreur die afsterwe van regter Moses Chinhengo, wat Vrydag in 'n hospitaal in Zimbabwe op 71 oorlede is. Chinhengo het die Fishrot-korrupsieverhoor gelei. Sy ampstermyn in die saak is gekenmerk deur herhaalde regsuitdagings van die beskuldigdes, wat sy aanstelling bevraagteken het en sy onttrekking versoek het. Regter Chinhengo het uiteindelik in Julie vanjaar uit die verhoor getree en persoonlike redes aangevoer. Die Regbank het Chinhengo beskryf as 'n vooraanstaande juris wie se regsloopbaan gekenmerk is deur 'n beginselvaste toewyding aan geregtigheid. Woordvoerder Victoria Hango het met Kosmos 94.1 Nuus gepraat.

In Tourism, Philanthropy and School Tours in Zimbabwe: Problematising "Win-Win" Discourses (Routledge, 2024), Kathleen Smithers investigates the tensions between a school's role as a communal learning space and its function as a spectacle for tourists. Using a school in Matabeleland North as a case study, Smithers analyzes how school tours, often motivated by the need for funding, navigate the complexities of authenticity. Adopting a unique interdisciplinary approach, the book reveals the challenges inherent in tourism partnerships that include philanthropic elements and unpacks the use of stereotypical cultural images. The book provides a multi-faceted view by exploring these dynamics through the eyes of students, teachers, school leaders, and tourism professionals. Learn more about your ad choices.

Hidden fees, high commissions, and driver exploitation have left restaurants struggling to stay afloat. Recognizing this broken system, Troy Smith, CEO of Chop Chop, created a solution designed to empower restaurants and drivers alike while saving money for small businesses.Chop Chop isn't your typical food delivery app. “We're not an ordering app,” Troy explained in today's episode. “We believe restaurants should take their own orders and payments. What we do is connect drivers with restaurants.” This unique approach eliminates the hefty commissions that traditional apps charge—often up to 30% of an order—enabling restaurants to retain more of their revenue.Troy's innovative model is simple yet impactful. Restaurants pay a flat $199 monthly fee to access the app, allowing them to connect with vetted drivers who deliver orders. Unlike other platforms, Chop Chop ensures drivers are paid fairly—directly from the restaurant through Stripe, with funds held in escrow until delivery is confirmed. Customers receive real-time updates via SMS without needing to download the app, while restaurants maintain full control of the customer relationship.This streamlined system offers a lifeline to small businesses, especially mom-and-pop restaurants, which have been disproportionately affected by high delivery fees. “Deliveries have become a huge revenue stream for restaurants, especially since COVID,” Troy shared. “But the current system just isn't working. Restaurants are paying more money to send food to their own customers than ever before.”Chop Chop's mission extends beyond financial benefits. Many drivers and restaurants in the network are first-generation immigrants who often face exploitation in the gig economy. “FundingHope really resonated with us because they're looking out for the small guy,” Troy said. Chop Chop's crowdfunding campaign on FundingHope invites customers, drivers, and supporters to invest in the platform and help scale this game-changing solution.For just $199 a month—less than the price of a cup of coffee per day—restaurants can reclaim control, drivers can earn fairly, and customers can support their favorite local businesses without guilt. Chop Chop is more than a delivery app; it's a movement to restore fairness and transparency in food delivery.Visit ChopChop.mobi or FundingHope to learn more about this revolutionary app and its crowdfunding campaign.tl;dr:Troy Smith explains how Chop Chop empowers restaurants by eliminating high delivery fees and exploitation.The platform charges restaurants a flat $199 monthly fee, connecting them with vetted drivers for deliveries.Chop Chop ensures drivers are paid fairly via Stripe, fostering transparency and trust in the process.Inspired by personal experiences and challenges during COVID, Troy created a practical, scalable solution.The company invites investors to join its FundingHope campaign, supporting a fairer food delivery ecosystem.How to Develop Making a Plan As a SuperpowerTroy Smith's superpower, as he describes it, is the ability to “make a plan.” Growing up in Zimbabwe, he adopted the Afrikaans phrase maak a plan, meaning to solve problems through creativity and resourcefulness. “When something presents itself, a challenge, something is going wrong, you make a plan,” Troy explained in this episode.One powerful story that exemplifies this superpower occurred during the early days of COVID. Troy visited a small Japanese restaurant, where the owner, short on staff, asked him to deliver food for $10. This simple act planted the seed for Chop Chop. “She made the plan for me,” Troy said, “and I realized we could turn this into an app, connecting drivers with restaurants while ensuring fair pay.”To develop this superpower, Troy suggests starting with observation. “Instead of jumping in and trying to fix things, take a moment to see what's going on,” he shared. Identifying the root cause of a problem is key to crafting an effective solution. He also emphasizes the importance of systems, a lesson he learned while running McDonald's franchises in South Africa.By following Troy's example and advice, you can make problem-solving a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileTroy Smith (he/him):CEO, Chop ChopAbout Chop Chop: Chop Chop is a logistics platform that empowers restaurants to run first-party delivery without the costs and headaches of hiring their own drivers. We are not an ordering platform. Restaurants continue to take orders and payments directly from their customers. We connect them with local verified drivers who are screened for license and insurance and who complete deliveries on demand. Unlike third-party apps, we do not take commissions or add hidden fees. Instead, we charge a flat subscription, allowing restaurants to keep more revenue, drivers to earn fairly, and customers to avoid surprise charges.Website: chopchop.mobiOther URL: invest.fundinghope.com/offering/chop-chop/detailsBiographical Information: Troy Smith is the co-founder and CEO of Chop Chop, a logistics platform that helps restaurants run first-party delivery without relying on costly third-party apps. A former McDonald's franchisee, Troy understands firsthand the challenges restaurants face with slim margins and complex operations.

Send us a textDrug-resistant germs are hidden killers in more than one way. Not only are the microbes invisible to the human eye, in many places, they're invisible because people simply are not looking for them systematically.Doctors often do not know what infections their patients have and treat them based on best guesses, which allows for ineffective treatments and exacerbates drug resistance. Policymakers don't know which infections are most common among populations and cannot make informed decisions about needed treatments or vaccines.This is a major problem across Africa and a new report shows just how complex the problem is.The Mapping AMR and Antimicrobial use Partnership (MAAP), which included the One Health Trust as well as the African Society for Laboratory Medicine; Africa CDC; the East, Central, and Southern Africa Health Community; Innovative Support to Emergencies, Diseases, and Disasters, a nonprofit focused on technology and communication;  the clinical research group IQVIA; and the West African Health Organization, collected data from laboratories from 14 countries in Africa (Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Gabon, Ghana, Kenya, Eswatini, Malawi, Nigeria, Senegal, Sierra Leone, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia, and Zimbabwe). “The study revealed significant gaps in bacteriology testing capacities,” the group, whose work was paid for by the UK government's Fleming Fund, wrote in PLoS Medicine.It's the biggest survey yet of testing for antimicrobial resistance – AMR or drug resistance – in Africa.Among the gaps: too little testing overall, a lack of laboratory capacities, and poor coordination and analysis of records. Many records were kept only on paper, which made them almost impossible to access.None of this surprises Dr. Sabiha Essack, South African Research Chair in Antibiotic Resistance and One Health and Professor in Pharmaceutical Sciences at the University of KwaZulu-Natal. In an ideal world, she says, a doctor, nurse or other professional should see a patient, test them to see what specific microbe is causing an infection, check to see which drugs will successfully fight that germ, and then treat the patient accordingly.Cheap point-of-care tests should be available everywhere and the results of those tests should be entered into systems that officials can use to make policy decisions, she says. Listen as she tells One World, One Health host Maggie Fox other ways to improve our knowledge about the drug-resistant infections that lurk out there. Want to know more? You can find One World, One Health episodes on drug-resistant infections in cancer patients; superbugs and microplastics; the personal toll of antibiotic resistance; one woman's antibiotic resistance nightmare; how to prevent drug resistance, and more.

In this Hip Deep edition, Afropop producer Wills Glasspeigel heads to South Africa to reveal the story of the inimitable Hugh Tracey, a field recordist born at the turn of the 20th century in England. A wayward youth, Tracey found himself in Africa in the 1920s where he became fascinated with music from Zimbabwe. Tracey became a pioneer field recordist, making over 250 LPs of traditional African music for the Gallo label in South Africa. Like John and Alan Lomax in the US, Tracey was instrumental in preserving hundreds of songs that have since gone extinct. Glasspiegel speaks with Dianne Thram, director of Tracey library in Grahamstown, South Africa; Tracey's son Andrew, a musician and field recordist in his own right; Michael Baird, an expert on the Tracey catalog; and esteemed South African anthropologist David Coplan. We'll also head to Malawi to make a field recording of our own with the help of Malawian singer, Esau Mwamwaya. APWW #590
