Send a textIn this episode of the SheClicks Women in Photography Podcast, Angela Nicholson talks with Adele and Max Warner-Tate, a creative partnership based in the Outer Hebrides, who have built a new life around photography.After years of working demanding full-time careers, Adele and Max made the bold decision to step away from the nine-to-five and move to the Isle of Harris and Lewis. What began as regular trips to Scotland soon turned into something much bigger. Inspired by the dramatic coastline, powerful seas and ever-changing weather, they decided to swap busy careers for a life focused on photography and creativity.Adele specialises in long exposure seascape photography, capturing the movement and atmosphere of Scotland's wild coastline. Max works alongside her, filming their adventures, flying drones when the Hebridean winds allow, and documenting their photography journeys through video. Together they explore the island's beaches, cliffs and harbours, often heading out when the weather is at its most dramatic.In this conversation, Adele and Max share what it was really like leaving established careers to pursue photography, how they built a new creative life in the Outer Hebrides and why slowing down has transformed the way they work. They also talk about developing their photography style, running workshops, opening their gallery and the joy of printing their images.Angela and her guests discuss long-exposure photography, photographing waves and storms, the realities of creating photography content for YouTube and why the Hebrides continue to inspire them every single day.This episode is full of insight for photographers who dream of building a life around their creativity and finding inspiration in wild landscapes.TakeawaysSometimes the biggest creative changes happen when you step away from a traditional career path.Spending time in a landscape helps you understand how weather, light and conditions shape your photography.Slowing down and giving yourself time can transform how you approach photography.Long exposure photography encourages patience and careful observation of the scene.Printing your photographs can deepen your connection with your work and help you see images in a new way.Building a photography life is not always about equipment or locations but about passion, persistence and creativity.Connect with Adele and MaxWebsiteInstagramFacebookYouTubeSupport the show

Send a textVictarion Greyjoy meets Moqorro. The priest of R'hllor proves his value by curing Victarion's wounded hand. Onwards to Meereen and Daenerys - to claim her as his bride. Simon and Mackelly wonder if he and Daenerys might be ill-suited.Chapter Review:Victarion Greyjoy is awaiting the rest of his storm-ravaged Iron Fleet on the Isle of Cedars. The fleet has dwindled from 93 down to 54, but that new number includes captured cogs and fishing boats that hardly cover for the other losses. He is ahead of a large fleet (300-500 ships) coming from Volantis to destroy Daenerys Targaryen, and knows he must leave soon if he is to claim her. His mission was to bring her back for his brother Euron, but he plans to claim her as his own bride. One ship brings a prisoner to Victarion - Moqorro the priest of R'Hllor. Greyjoy is tempted to sacrifice him to the Drowned God, but the man has knowledge that he shouldn't. Sequestered Moqorro heals Victarion's injured hand, and so it is Maester Kerwin who becomes the sacrifice.    Characters/Places/Names/Events:Victarion Greyjoy - Younger brother of Euron Greyjoy, Lord Captain of the Iron Fleet.Euron Greyjoy - Lord of the Iron Islands.Maester Kerwin - Maester of the Citadel.

It's easy to get overwhelmed with all the 'rules' and 'tips' and here I talk about how to create a dating life for yourself that feels nourishing and divine, rather than overwhelming and draining. I'd love to hear your thoughts. Enjoy

With the advent of the Sylvia Odio series, we are  pivoting  back to (finally) finishing off the Mexico series. In the Odio story  tell  something tangential to Mexico but vastly important overall.  It's the story of Sylvia Odio. No...it's not time yet for Sylvia Duran...that is coming next. Were going to cover Sylvia Odio first.In the second episode of this  mini-series premiere, we continue to  lay the groundwork for what has become known as the most explosive Oswald sightings of the Kennedy assassination. In this second episode, we explore the question Why Sylvia Odio? Why did mysterious strangers single out this woman from among thousands of Cuban exiles? The answer lies in the blood-soaked drama of pre-revolutionary Cuba. Born in 1937 into one of the island's wealthiest and most influential families, Sylvia Eugenia Odio was the eldest daughter of transport tycoon Amador Odio-Padrón—once called Latin America's “transport tycoon” by Time magazine—and Sarah Odio. The family lived at the pinnacle of Cuban society, owning vast estates, hobnobbing with diplomats, and sending Sylvia to elite schools in Philadelphia before law studies at home. Yet beneath the privilege burned a fierce revolutionary fire: the Odios had fought every dictator from Machado to Batista, then poured their trucking empire into Fidel Castro's rebel cause, smuggling weapons and even supplying the truck for the daring 1957 Presidential Palace assault.When Castro seized power in 1959 and swiftly betrayed every democratic promise—executing opponents, muzzling the press, and confiscating property—the Odios once again went underground. Amador helped found the powerful anti-Castro MRP movement alongside Manolo Ray. In October 1961 the regime struck: Castro's agents raided the family's idyllic El Cano estate, arrested Amador and Sarah for hiding a wanted MRP leader, and turned their luxury home into a women's prison. Sarah would spend eight years locked inside her own confiscated property; Amador was shipped to the infamous Isle of Pines. (Despite persistent rumors, no credible FBI, Warren Commission, or HSCA evidence ever linked the Odios to the Mafia; they were political idealists who lost everything for their principles.)Meanwhile, Sylvia—already in exile in Puerto Rico with four young children—learned her parents faced possible execution. Her husband abandoned her, and overnight the heiress became destitute. The trauma triggered crushing blackouts and a complete emotional collapse. In March 1963, two younger sisters in Dallas and a compassionate network of Cuban-refugee helpers raised money to bring Sylvia and her children to Texas. Settled in Dallas, she began psychiatric care with Dr. Burton Einspruch, found work at Knoll Associates, and by September 1963 was finally rebuilding a stable life in a new apartment on Magellan Circle.But Sylvia's family name still carried enormous weight in the shadowy world of anti-Castro militants—and in the final days of September 1963, that Cold War shadow followed her all the way to her Dallas doorstep, delivering visitors who would forever link her story to one of the most fateful events in American history.

What happens when spiritual hunger meets the promise of God? In this powerful message, Pastor Nathan unpacks Isaiah's prophetic promise that God will pour out His Spirit on thirsty people. “Floods on Dry Ground” reminds us that revival does not begin with programs or hype—it begins with hunger. Even in seasons of dryness, God is faithful to refresh, restore, and awaken His people. Through Isaiah 44 and the words of Jesus in John, we are invited to receive not just a touch from God, but rivers of living water flowing from our lives.Drawing from revival history like the movement on the Isle of Lewis and voices such as Charles Spurgeon, this sermon challenges believers to cry out again for a fresh baptism of the Holy Spirit. Pastor Nathan calls the Church to reject complacency and pursue ongoing encounters with God's presence. This is a bold invitation to evaluate our spiritual thirst, repent of comfort and control, and contend for revival in our homes, church, and region. Are you dry—or are you desperate for more of God?For more on LifePoint Church go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠lifepointaz.com ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Check out our merch store ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://lifepointaz-shop.fourthwall.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Find all our links in one easy spot ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/lifepointaz ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow us on Facebook ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/lifepointaz ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow us on Instagram ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/lifepointchurchaz/

Hello friends and listeners! Well I am back at it.  And today, we pivot back to (finally) finishing off the Mexico series, I tell the story of something tangential to Mexico but vastly important overall.  It's the story of Sylvia Odio. No...it's not time yet for Sylvia Duran...that is coming next. But let's get Sylvia Odio out of the way first.  In this  gripping mini-series premiere, we lay the groundwork for what has become known as the most explosive Oswald sighting of the Kennedy assassination. We journey from the aristocratic circles of pre-Castro Cuba to a modest garden-style apartment in Dallas, Texas, following the tragic trajectory of Sylvia Odio. As a young, recently divorced mother of four, Sylvia's world had already been shattered by the political imprisonment of her parents in Fidel Castro's dungeons, including her father's imprisonment  on the  infamous Isle of Pines. Struggling with the emotional toll of her exile and sudden poverty, she sought only a quiet life—unaware that the darkest mystery of the 20th century was about to walk right up to her front door.This prelude sets the stage for a chilling late-September evening in 1963 that would forever alter American history. We explore the shadowy world of the anti-Castro underground to understand the terrifying context of a sudden knock at Sylvia's door on Magellan Circle. Waiting in her vestibule were two militant Latin operatives using the underground "war names" Leopoldo and Angelo, accompanied by a pale, quiet American. The American was introduced to Sylvia by a name that would soon echo across the globe: "Leon Oswald". And what happened next goes directly to the assassination question itself. Join us as we begin to unravel the Odio incident, an enduring paradox that completely shatters the official narrative but also adds as many questions as it answers.

We bought a house in the charming Provence town of l'Isle sur la Sorgue! That's right: the Pearl of Provence, the Venice of the South, the same place we recorded the Christmas episode last year. And while we'll still live in Paris and do business as usual, this exciting news will surely add a new scent of lavender to everything we do. So: Why did we buy this house? How? What next? Are we leaving Paris? (no). We answer all these questions and more in this week's episode.  I'll share pics and videos along the way, be sure you're following our social media channels.  *********** The Earful Tower exists thanks to support from its members.

Last up from Spoken Label (Our Spoken Word / Writer Podcast) features Part 2 of our extended chat with the Environmental Poetry collection ‘I am Nature', this time an extended chat with the wonderful Andrew Sumner andPatricia (Pat) Sumner. Andrew Sumner grew up near Stroud in Gloucestershire,surrounded by deep woods and floriferous meadows thronged with butterflies. These places he explored with his mother, father and younger sister. Sadly, all that rich nature has since gone under the plough and the conifer. Later, his father's work took the family south to Somerset and the new and differentlandscapes of the Somerset Levels, the Quantock Hills and the Mendip Hills.Andrew's poems have been published in group anthologies and poetry collections, including ‘Travelling with the Saints' (Y Lofa, 2013) and ‘Both Sides of the Border – An Anthology of Writing on the Welsh Border Region (Gwasg Carreg Gfwlach, 1998). He has illustrated a children's book written by hiswife, Pat and enjoys walking, gardening, turning wood, drawing, painting, and researching family history. *Patricia Sumner (Pat) grew up on the Isle of Anglesey and nowlives in the Vale of Clwyd. She has loved creative writing ever since she was very young. As an adult, she studied under the poet and author Dr Gladys Mary Coles,namong other writers. It was at these Creative writing classes in Chester that she met her husband, Andrew.As a poet, she has had two collections published. Her pamphlet ‘Beyond the Glass' came first in a national poetry competition run by Thynks Publications. Pat's second collection of poems and readings, ‘The Promise of Dawn: Rites of Passage for all Beliefs', is published by Veneficia Publications.Pat has won awards for some of her poems and plays, and her poetry has appeared in magazines and anthologies. Pat has a BA (Hons) in English Literature and Philosophy, and a Post Graduate Certificate in Education.  This book (which is recommended) can be found here:https://www.amazon.co.uk/I-Am-Nature-Environmental-Poetry-ebook/dp/B0FH7PRW78/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1SAZ97SPX6WAQ&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.boHw9Hvv-eiwk0u6a82ZqWgjmK5G_sB28inaUJj0xhnHDE2LARcrHr8SrLCATjQSwE33nT3rAzsmfAznxsyx5IGxWZdQS_e_hS0b6ZwycAw.ulpWQy3YfH1rRkpCS96xbDozvPLa_m20qWAIz00uIUc&dib_tag=se&keywords=andrew+sumner&qid=1771620249&s=books&sprefix=andrew+sumner%2Cstripbooks%2C591&sr=1-1

Where in the world am I? In San Diego, talking about Warsaw, Poland The FAQ is: "How do I decide when it's time to pay more for comfort or safety instead of pushing myself?" Budget travel advice is common; guidance on when frugality stops being smart for aging bodies is not. This is a silent tension for senior solo travelers. Answer:  ​​Here's the truth: saving money is never worth arriving exhausted, stressed, or injured. As we get older, comfort becomes a strategy, not a luxury. I ask myself one simple question: Will this choice give me more energy tomorrow? If the answer is no, I upgrade — whether that's a better seat, a closer hotel, or a taxi instead of public transit. Smart travel means spending where it preserves your strength and confidence, not proving how tough you still are.   60-second confidence challenge Your challenge today is to set up your phone to access your essential private information while keeping it secure.   Do you have the numbers saved somewhere easy to access? You should. If you're traveling anytime soon, you'll need this. I created a spreadsheet with all of my important information, hidden and password-protected. I don't save it all in one place, though. Be aware that nothing is completely secure, even writing something down on paper can be lost. If you like today's Confidence Challenge, my book series delves deeper into passwords, privacy, security, and the confidence it takes to travel solo as a woman in her prime. See Book A for addressing this concern about being solo and being secure. I traveled around the world solo for 90 days twice, so I needed this confidence and access. Find it at https://www.5stepstosolotravel.com/ or on Amazon. It's a several-part series. Today's special destination is Warsaw, Poland  Today we're exploring Warsaw, Poland — a city of contrasts, where modern glass towers rise beside meticulously restored baroque palaces. For the solo woman traveler over 50, Warsaw offers culture, history, and accessibility that make it both inspiring and comfortable. Warsaw's sidewalks are wide and level, and public trams and buses are largely low-floor and wheelchair-accessible. English is spoken in most hotels, restaurants, and museums. Be mindful of the weather — summer can be warm, but spring and fall are ideal for sightseeing. Wear comfortable shoes, carry a light wrap, and take your time. On my visit….Here is my travelogue: I am at the train station, and I got here too early, so my train isn't on the board yet. It leaves in about 30 minutes, and the station is busy. I am in Warsaw, Poland. I arrived here yesterday on the train from Kraków, arranged to take a second train to the suburbs, and was met by Sophie, who hosted me last night. She made a lovely dinner for her family, including me, and then we went into the city and explored all the sights. We walked for two hours through Old Town, saw all the essential city buildings and statues, and also explored the university area. I liked it very much.  My first comment is that it's very green. It's flat, and the people are kind and respectful; they are all white. I have not seen any black people at all in this country; I've seen a few Asians, but otherwise, everybody is pretty much the same, and it's been enjoyable. There are so many famous people from Warsaw that I didn't know about, and I don't remember the names of many of the renowned scholars, mayors, presidents, and people who died in a plane crash in 2010, but there's a lovely statue to them.  I do know the musical legend Chopin, so he left a legacy here, including his heart, which is buried in a chapel in one of the cathedrals, so I thought that was a pretty interesting, fun fact. Why Visit Warsaw? Because it's a city that has reinvented itself without losing its soul, from royal castles to modern art, Warsaw welcomes solo travelers who appreciate resilience, beauty, and freedom. Exploring Warsaw's Historic Heart Begin your day in the Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site rebuilt brick by brick after World War II. The Castle Square (Plac Zamkowy) and the Royal Castle are primarily flat and wheelchair-friendly, with ramps and elevators available inside. The cobblestone streets can be uneven, but many sections have smoother side paths and level crossings. Stroll or roll along Krakowskie Przedmieście, or Suburb street, one of the most beautiful boulevards in Europe, lined with cafés, bookshops, and historic churches. Stop by the Church of St. Anne, where there's ramp access to the main sanctuary. Krakowskie Przedmieście is pronounced roughly as Krah-KOF-skyeh Psheh-DMYES-cheh, with the stress on the third syllable (KOF) and a soft 'ś' (sh-sound) at the end, meaning "Kraków Fore-town". Polish vowels are crisp, the 'w' often sounds like 'v', and 'sz' is a 'sh' sound, making it sound melodic yet distinct.  https://travel.usnews.com/Warsaw_Poland/Things_To_Do/Krakow_Suburb_Street_Krakowskie_Przedmiescie_63801/   For lunch, try traditional Polish fare at Zapiecek, where you can sample pierogi in a cozy, accessible setting. On my next trip to Warsaw, here are a few things I would do or do again. Visit the POLIN Museum of the History of Polish Jews — one of Warsaw's most acclaimed museums. It's fully accessible, with elevators, wide galleries, and English-language audio guides. The interactive exhibits tell a 1,000-year story of Jewish life in Poland, and it's both educational and deeply moving. End your day in the Saxon Garden (Ogród Saski), one of Warsaw's oldest parks. Its paved paths, fountains, and shaded benches make it ideal for a restful stroll or quiet reflection before dinner. Start at Łazienki Park, a vast royal garden known for its graceful pathways and friendly peacocks. Wheelchair users can easily access the main lanes and enjoy views of the lake. Don't miss the Palace on the Isle, which offers accessible tours upon request, and look for the Chopin Monument — often the site of free outdoor concerts in summer. Next, head to the Warsaw Uprising Museum, dedicated to the 1944 resistance movement. The museum is fully wheelchair-accessible, with ramps, elevators, and accessible restrooms. It's a powerful look at the courage of Warsaw's citizens and a reminder of the city's indomitable spirit. For lunch or a break, stop at Hala Koszyki, a trendy food hall filled with accessible dining spaces, local Polish dishes, and people-watching opportunities. If you enjoy classical music, consider a Chopin recital at one of the small concert halls around the city center — many offer accessible seating and ramps. Travel Tips for the Solo 50+ Traveler: Warsaw's sidewalks are wide and level, and public trams and buses are largely low-floor and wheelchair-accessible. English is spoken in most hotels, restaurants, and museums. Be mindful of the weather — summer can be warm, but spring and fall are ideal for sightseeing. Wear comfortable shoes, carry a light wrap, and take your time. Why Visit Warsaw? Because it's a city that has reinvented itself without losing its soul, from royal castles to modern art, Warsaw welcomes solo travelers who appreciate resilience, beauty, and freedom. Here are some of my observations about Warsaw. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9BjIYKq4CVk oise.com/poland/is-warsaw-worth-visiting/ https://passport-for-living.com/weekend-in-warsaw-travel-guide/ https://www.warsawuprising.org/media/wu44_1.mp4   My missteps: Don't worry about what you can't control.   I got a message from Finnair that my flight to Finland was likely to be cancelled. I was in Poland, and the connection wasn't very easy. There aren't many flights from Gdansk to Helsinki, Finland. So, I was a bit concerned. However, fate smiled upon me that day. I was able to get to where I wanted and no delays. I was the only Finnair flight out of the airport that day because of a strike. However, I went, and it went well.

In this Worldviews episode, Jim talks with Iain McGilchrist about consciousness, matter, and the nature of reality. They discuss consciousness as the basis of everything we know, matter as a phase of consciousness that provides resistance and persistence, pan-experientialism and the belief that everything in the cosmos experiences in some form, the whirlpool metaphor for individual consciousness within a broader field, emergent naturalism and nested levels of organization, the question of whether the universe is continuous or granular at the Planck scale, consciousness in animals including chimps and corvids, language as the principal difference between human and animal consciousness, John Vervaeke's distinction between propositional and participatory knowing, the divided brain and how the left and right hemispheres attend to the world differently, the left hemisphere's focus on decontextualized abstractions versus the right hemisphere's grasp of interconnected wholes, how the left hemisphere deals with representations while the right hemisphere experiences presences, living in a world dominated by the relatively stupid left hemisphere, the relationship between consciousness and reality as an encounter rather than naive realism or idealism, relations coming before things, Lee Smolin's argument that time cannot be an illusion, assembly theory's challenge to the block universe, values as ontological primitives that cannot be derived from a valueless cosmos, the distinction between value and values, teleology as a lure rather than determinism using Waddington's creodes metaphor, the three elements of a fulfilled life (belonging to a coherent social group, belonging in nature, and belonging in the cosmos), the breakdown of collective sense making despite increased education levels, the decline in the caliber of political leaders, the distinction between information and wisdom, and much more. Episode Transcript The Master and His Emissary, by Iain McGilchrist The Matter with Things, by Iain McGilchrist JRS EP 154 - Iain McGilchrist on The Matter With Things JRS EP 155 Iain McGilchrist Part 2: The Matter With Things The Emergence of Everything, by Harold Morowitz Time Reborn, by Lee Smolin JRS EP 5 Lee Smolin - Quantum Foundations and Einstein's Unfinished Revolution Iain McGilchrist is a former Fellow of All Souls College, Oxford, an associate Fellow of Green Templeton College, Oxford, a Fellow of the Royal College of Psychiatrists, a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts, a Consultant Emeritus of the Bethlem and Maudsley Hospital, London, a former research Fellow in Neuroimaging at Johns Hopkins University Medical School, Baltimore, and a former Fellow of the Institute of Advanced Studies in Stellenbosch. He now lives on the Isle of Skye, off the coast of North West Scotland, where he continues to write, and lectures worldwide. He is committed to the idea that the mind and brain can be understood only by seeing them in the broadest possible context, that of the whole of our physical and spiritual existence, and of the wider human culture in which they arise – the culture which helps to mould, and in turn is moulded by, our minds and brains.

We all have those destinations we think we know.And then we get there and they completely win us over. In this episode, I'm sharing a handful of places that surprised me in the very best way. These are spots around Europe that went beyond my expectations and left a bigger impression than I ever imagined.I'm talking about everything from the wild, rugged beauty of Ireland's west coast to the storybook charm of York in England.And yes, even Paris made this list because sometimes the most iconic places still manage to surprise you.There are mountain regions that stole my heart, quieter corners that felt more magical than expected, and a few destinations that simply stayed with me long after I left.This is a personal look at expectations vs. reality — and how some of the best travel moments happen when a place catches you off guard. It's also a reminder to leave a little room for the unexpected when you're planning your own European adventure.So now I'm curious… what are the places that surprised you in the best possible way?Send me a note at Lynne@WanderYourWay.comIn this episode:2:15: Intro7:06: Ireland: County Donegal & West Cork11:19: Paris, France14:27: South Tyrol, Italy17:20: Slovenia20:24: Isle of Mull, Scotland23:51: York, England27:02: Krün, Germany30:25: Peak District, England33:31: Normandy, France36:49: St Andrews, Scotland41:42: Recap42:20: Wrapping it upImportant links:County Dongel • IrelandWest Cork • IrelandRainbow Weather: Exploring Beautiful West Cork Ireland with Kat KochThe Best Things To Do in Paris in 4 DaysMy Joyful Love Affair with the Beautiful and Diverse South Tyrol ItalySlovenia • An OverviewIsle of Mull • ScotlandYork • EnglandBlack Forest & Bavaria • GermanyDiscovering the Diverse and Beautiful Peak District EnglandExploring Beautiful Normandy, France: Going Beyond the D-Day BeachesExploring St Andrews • Scotland with Bo FraserWander Your WayWander Your Way AdventuresWander Your Way ResourcesOofos ★ Support this podcast ★

Sam Raimi's new survival thriller Send Help is more overtly comedic and cartoonishly violent than the other film in this week's pairing of dueling castaway duos, but those qualities are both rooted in complimentary ideas about class, gender, and power. They're also both rooted in a baseline cynicism toward humanity that informs a lot of Raimi's work, as well as our discussion of Send Help, for which we are once again joined by cultural critic and friend of the show Charles Bramesco. Then in Connections we bring 1974's Swept Away back into the discussion to see how its sexual fantasy aligns with Send Help's revenge fantasy, and how both are shaped by these films' desert (or is it deserted?) island setting. Please share your thoughts about Swept Away, Send Help, or anything else in the world of film, by sending an email or voice memo to comments@nextpictureshow.net, or leaving a short voicemail at (773) 234-9730. Next Pairing: Emerald Fennell's Wuthering Heights and Baz Luhrmann's Romeo + Juliet. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This week on Sober Awkward, Vic is showing up having one of those weeks. You know the kind. Life is busy, emotions are bubbling, and she's caught herself saying “Yeah, I'm fine” on autopilot, while secretly wanting to hide under a duvet and avoid everyone. Which, honestly, feels like the perfect moment to talk about… feelings.Today, Vic unpacks why sobriety can suddenly turn the emotional volume right up. Years of numbing everything with alcohol means that when you stop drinking, you don't just get clarity, you get everything. Old feelings, new feelings, confusing feelings, all turning up at once with no warning and absolutely no chill.She's joined by her mate Kate, who Vic met on a Sober Awkward retreat, and together they talk honestly about what it's like when the emotional floodgates open. They chat about learning how to sit with difficult headspaces without leaning on a drink, how bottled-up emotions can spill out sideways, and why avoidance often ends in drama, arguments… and sometimes even a bit of fisty cuffs in a tent on the Isle of Wight. Yes, really. You'll want to hear that story.This episode is for anyone who's sober and wondering why they suddenly feel so much, anyone who's navigating emotions without their old coping mechanisms, and anyone who needs reminding that feeling everything doesn't mean you're failing, it means you're healing.Pop the kettle on... It's time to get uncomfortable.Follow Kate at @detoxikated on Insta

What happens when two people on opposite sides of a power imbalance end up stranded together on a deserted island? Before that was the premise of Sam Raimi's new comedic thriller Send Help, it was the setup for Lina Wertmüller's 1974 romantic farce Swept Away, only with the genders reversed and the sexual and political provocation turned way up. So this week we're joined by critic, friend of the show, and Wertmüller aficionado Charles Bramesco to sort through Swept Away's overlapping layers of satire, metaphor, and titillation, in an attempt to pinpoint what the film is actually trying to say about gender and class relations. Please share your thoughts about Swept Away, Send Help, or anything else in the world of film, by sending an email or voice memo to comments@nextpictureshow.net, or leaving a short voicemail at (773) 234-9730.

Chris Kobusch & Sophie O'Neill are longtime friends of 59º North. Chris was in fact one of our full-time skippers for two years on ICEBEAR & FALKEN, and Mia & I recently attended their wedding in England last September. Both professional sailors, they met on the Clipper Race, where Sophie was a last-minute sub-in as First Mate and sailed across the Pacific with Chris. Since then they've led an adventurous life together, working for Skip Novak in Antarctica and buying & refitting their own steel boat OCEAN WANDERER. Like Mia & I, they're now balancing family life with their son Xander, and professional sailing, and recently announced a new project where they'll be building a Wharram 62 catamaran and sailing to the South Pacific. I spoke to them about all of this from their home base on the Isle of Wight just before Christmas. -- Support the podcast & become a member of The Quarterdeck, where Andy, August & Mia dive deep on the art of seam'nship.
