We're heading to Western Australia for Western Australian Tournament Anglers (WATA) – Kayak Round 3 of 2025, held 7 September 2025 on the Moore River (Guilderton, WA). This round dished up some of the nastiest conditions you'd choose to fish in — heavy wind, driving rain, and a river mouth that'd been open for weeks, pushing current and foam through the system. Despite the grind, we still saw a standout winning bag and some really interesting insights into how the top anglers adjusted their approach to get bites when it counted. In this episode, you'll hear from: ✅ Travis Newland (3rd) – talks through tough winter fishing on the Moore, working contours and drop-offs, and how the open mouth + dirty water changed everything. ✅ Joseph Gardner (2nd) – breaks down his competition plan, the reality of slow fishing in brutal weather, and exactly how he works a pygmy mussel in current. ✅ Matt DeBoer (1st) – a massive win with 2.52kg for three fish, including a 1.19kg big BREAM. Matt explains how he kept his lure presentation natural with wind/tide fighting each other — and how that big fish came unstuck on the day. You'll also get the quick rundown of the Fish Activity Wheel and the key bite window for the session. Sponsor shout-out A big thanks to Getaway Outdoors  for supporting the WATA kayak series — and for anglers travelling over, there are kayaks available for hire so you can jump into a WA round without dragging your whole setup across the country.

Madrid ha sido elegida como nueva sede central del Consejo Mundial de Viajes y Turismo (WTTC), que tras abandonar Londres por el aumento de costes derivados del Brexit buscaba una nueva ubicación en Europa. La capital española se impuso a otras candidatas como Barcelona, París, Roma, Ginebra y Dubái, reforzando la posición de España y de Madrid como referentes internacionales en la gobernanza y la toma de decisiones del sector turístico.Según datos de Kayak, en 2025 los hábitos de viaje de los españoles estuvieron marcados por la diversificación de destinos y un mayor gasto en experiencias. París fue el destino internacional más buscado, mientras que Fukuoka (Japón) registró el mayor crecimiento en interés. Además, crecieron los viajes en grupo, con un alza del 30%, y las opciones premium ganaron peso, con incrementos del 23% en vuelos en clase business y del 105% en alojamientos de cinco estrellas frente a 2024.El Gobierno de España solicitará que Cataluña y Euskadi se conviertan en miembros asociados de la UNESCO y ONU Turismo, lo que les permitiría participar en programas y decisiones culturales y turísticas sin tener plena soberanía estatal. Actualmente, ONU Turismo cuenta con seis miembros asociados, como Aruba, Hong Kong y Madeira.Un 74% de los españoles con gato planifica sus vacaciones según su mascota y un 15% viaja con ella en fiestas, según el II Barómetro Felino de Sanicat.

Paul Hilbers is een van de meest ervaren Nederlandse economen op het gebied van financiële stabiliteit en internationaal economisch beleid. Al bijna veertig jaar werkt hij in dit vakgebied, met een loopbaan die hij heeft verdeeld tussen De Nederlandsche Bank en het Internationaal Monetair Fonds in Washington D.C. In totaal maakte hij maar liefst zes keer de overstap tussen DNB en het IMF. Hij begon eind jaren tachtig bij De Nederlandsche Bank, waar hij zich bezighield met kapitaalmarktanalyse, monetair beleid en overheidsfinanciën. Binnen DNB groeide hij door in het toezicht op de financiële sector, en van 2009 tot 2020 was hij directeur Toezichtbeleid en Financiële Stabiliteit – precies in de cruciale periode na de financiële crisis. Hij was tevens lid van het Bazel's Comité voor Bankentoezicht en betrokken bij de totstandkoming van het Bazel 3 akkoord. Naast zijn werk bij DNB was hij meerdere periodes actief binnen het IMF. In zijn laatste functie als Executive Director vertegenwoordigde hij zestien landen in de Nederlands-Belgische kiesgroep. In die functie speelde hij een sleutelrol in de totstandkoming van het historische IMF-steunprogramma voor Oekraïne, een omvangrijk pakket van ruim 15 miljard dollar dat wereldwijd veel waardering opleverde. Naast zijn beleids- en toezichtwerk werd Paul in 2010 benoemd tot hoogleraar Toezicht Financiële Instellingen aan de Nyenrode Business Universiteit. Op 14 februari 2025 ging hij met emeritaat. Zijn emeritaatsrede – Bretton Woods 2.0: de rol van IMF en Wereldbank in een nieuwe internationale omgeving – draaide om veerkracht, vertrouwen en moreel leiderschap in een tijd van geopolitieke spanningen, klimaatverandering en toenemende economische fragmentatie. In diezelfde maand werd hij door koning Willem-Alexander benoemd tot Commandeur in de Orde van Oranje-Nassau, een zeldzame koninklijke onderscheiding die wordt toegekend aan personen die zich op internationaal niveau bijzonder hebben onderscheiden. De onderscheiding werd uitgereikt door Eelco Heinen. Paul studeerde Wiskunde aan de Universiteit Utrecht en Econometrie aan de Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, waar hij ook promoveerde in de Internationale Economie. En tot slot: Paul is 69 jaar oud, heeft twee volwassen zoons, en woont met zijn vrouw in Bussum.   ***  Leaders in Finance wordt mede mogelijk gemaakt door Kayak, EY, Mogelijk Vastgoedfinancieringen, Roland Berger en Lepaya   *** Boeken genoemd in de aflevering: Elon Musk, Walter Isaacson Wisselwachter, Geert Mak   *** Op de hoogte blijven van Leaders in Finance? Abonneer je dan op de nieuwsbrief.   ***  Vragen, suggesties of feedback?

“Life is about risk, so we will always have risk. You can't ski without learning how to fall in the snow, take off your skis, get back on your feet, and put your skis back on. You need to practise that, not only through education, but by doing.” That is one of the takeaways from the first ever Leaders in Finance Risk Event. Live from Amsterdam, host Kees de Wit reflects with three speakers from the event on the key topics and, more importantly, the main lessons of the day. Joining Kees de Wit are Owen Strijland, Managing Director at Protiviti; Carina Kozole, CRO at ING NL; and Daniël Smidts, Managing Director at Corporater. Together, they discuss the questions of the day: how has the risk landscape changed? What has changed in the decision making of a risk manager? And what can technology really bring into the risk function: is it a risk, or can it help? With real examples, such as what happens to your colleagues during a power outage in Spain, and the unexpected side effects of running electricity on diesel, they share insights that lead to one final question: who, or what, is a risk manager today?

In deze extra aflevering van de Leaders in Finance podcast, opgenomen tijdens de NVB Banking & Society Conference 2025 blikken we terug op een dag waarin één vraag steeds terugkwam: hoe maken we Europa weer sterk, economisch, maatschappelijk en geopolitiek? Host Rens de Jong gaat in gesprek met drie gasten die elk vanuit hun eigen perspectief reflecteren op weerbaarheid, autonomie en verantwoordelijkheid: Jacqueline van den Ende, co-founder en CEO van Carbon Equity Tjarda Krabbendam-Hersman, Division Director Defence, Safety & Security bij TNO Eelco Dubbeling, algemeen directeur van de Nederlandse Vereniging van Banken Ze bespreken hoe kwetsbaar Europa is geworden in een wereld van geopolitieke spanningen en polycrises, en waarom defensie, economische veerkracht, duurzaamheid en Europese waarden onlosmakelijk met elkaar verbonden zijn. Ook komt de vraag aan bod of Europa te lang naïef is geweest in investeringskeuzes rond defensie en andere strategische sectoren. Daarnaast gaat het over wat weerbaarheid vandaag betekent, niet alleen voor overheden maar ook voor banken, bedrijven en burgers, en hoe investeringen in energie, infrastructuur en innovatie kunnen bijdragen aan echte strategische autonomie. Over pessimisme versus optimisme, over politieke lef, over ESG en het ‘vredesdividend', en over de spanning tussen morele idealen en harde geopolitieke realiteit. Een aflevering over Europa op een kantelpunt – en over de rol die de financiële sector kan en moet spelen in wat er nu nodig is.   ***  Leaders in Finance wordt mede mogelijk gemaakt door Kayak, EY, Mogelijk Vastgoedfinancieringen, Roland Berger en Lepaya   *** Op de hoogte blijven van Leaders in Finance? Abonneer je dan op de nieuwsbrief.   ***  Vragen, suggesties of feedback?

In this episode of the Leaders in Finance Compliance Podcast, host Jeroen Broekema is joined by Envis Begaj, Head of Compliance at Bitvavo, and Johannes de Jong, Co-Managing Partner Netherlands at Osborne Clarke, to unpack where crypto regulation in Europe really stands today.How mature is the European crypto market, now that MiCAR is in force? What does the regulation actually change for crypto service providers in practice, and where does it still fall short? Jeroen asks what compliance leaders need to understand about the growing overlap between crypto services and payment services, the regulatory treatment of stablecoins, and why this issue has suddenly become so urgent.The conversation also looks at proportionality and supervision. Is the current regulatory burden for crypto firms justified, especially when compared to banks? Does MiCAR create a level playing field across Europe, or are differences between national supervisors creating new tensions and competitive imbalances? And how constructive is the relationship between crypto firms and regulators in reality?Beyond regulation, they go into the broader direction of the sector. Are crypto and traditional finance moving closer together? What role will tokenisation play in the future of financial markets? And if policymakers were willing to listen, what is the one thing lawmakers should change to help Europe remain competitive without compromising stability and consumer protection?Do listen now to this conversation about crypto, compliance, and the hard choices facing regulators and market participants alike!---> Volg de Leaders in Finance Compliance Podcast via de Website en LinkedIn.---> Luister hier naar de eerdere aflevering met Johannes de Jong---> De Leaders in Finance Compliance Podcast wordt mede mogelijk gemaakt door Cense, Deloitte, Kayak, Rabobank, en Osborne Clarke.

Today we have a full recap of what ended up at my door once the dust (and my credit card activity) settled after all the Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales, we have a brand new segment called the Tackle Talk Pro Tip featuring one of the most impressive professional anglers on tour today, we answer your questions about kayak stability and reading basic electronics, and we have an update on the annual Swimmy Awards. 

In this episode, we are joined by Oscar Scafidi, a Guinness World Record–holding adventurer, author, and expert on some of the most remote regions of Africa. Oscar recently released his new book, Kayak the Mangoky, which chronicles his expedition to paddle the length of Madagascar's longest river. Oscar shares how a “random” decision to take a teaching job in Sudan changed the entire direction of his life, sparking a 20-year journey living, working, and traveling across 35 African countries. He opens up about misconceptions that keep travelers away from places like Angola, Equatorial Guinea, and Madagascar — and why those stereotypes are outdated and unfair. Oscar also tells the full story behind the Mangoky expedition: navigating bureaucratic obstacles, trekking through remote mountain ranges, facing immense portages due to rapids and croc-filled canyons, and hiking for nine days without water resupply. With satellite maps from the 1980s, confusing tributaries, and no agreed-upon “official” river source, finding where to start the expedition was an adventure in itself. Through this intense journey, Oscar reflects on resilience, teamwork, risk, and why community support — not macho heroics — is what makes expeditions succeed. The episode also highlights Oscar's charity work supporting Malagasy children in rural education.

On today's episode we discuss some tips for cold-weather kayak fishing, we take an in-depth look and compare 4 of the biggest names in braided line, and more!

Michelle Parsons is a dynamic product leader who has led high-growth teams at Kayak, Spotify, Netflix, Hinge, and Lex. Her passion for building community and embracing new challenges has recently brought her to a leadership role in a new startup that helps people reconnect to themselves and one another. In this episode of Product Momentum, Michelle joins Sean and Dan to talk about “making bets” – not just the seductive big bets that promise game-changing innovation – but also the smaller bets and quick hits that also play important roles in delivering value, validating assumptions, and mitigating risk. Here's what we learned: The Balanced Portfolio Framework At the heart of Michelle's thinking is the notion of the Balanced Portfolio Framework – an idea she developed while leading product for kids' content at Netflix. Under this framework, your roadmap is divided into three buckets – big bets, smaller bets, and quick hits – that help you pursue transformational innovation while delivering consistent value. As you'll hear, connecting the dots between them helps to ensure that product work is driven by the value delivered to users and your business. Big bets start with user insights and clear hypotheses Big bets are the bold, strategic moves that are super-impactful, but also come with a great deal of uncertainty. They start with user insights and clear hypotheses that address the following questions: What need are we trying to solve? Why does it matter to our users? What metric will this move – and why does that metric matter for business impact? “These are the things that everyone wants to work on,” Michelle adds. “But they're never just ‘cool ideas.' They're the big innovative features that bring your strategy to life. But they come with a ton of unknowns. Super impactful, but really, really risky.” Small bets preserve resources and de-risk the big bet Think of small bets as the “meat and potatoes” of your roadmap – incremental improvements like polishing UX, refining workflows, or optimizing metrics. Here's what Michelle says: “The small bets are really about the optimizations and enhancements, the things that consistently create incremental impact for your users. Not only do they touch on macro metrics like retention, engagement, and delight, but they also help to de-risk the big bets.” Quick hits are the targeted work that accelerate learning We're all familiar with those small, fast, low-cost experiments or enhancements. These are the low-hanging fruit that support rapid learning. “A quick hit is a learning task,” Michelle adds – “not to be confused with a quick win.” Certainly, they can also be quick wins, but “quick hits are really this body of work, discreetly tied a hypothesis or a data point that you want to prove out further.” Use storytelling to align stakeholders around ‘why' Michelle emphasizes that roadmap planning is not just an exercise in listing features, but a storytelling exercise. Because many stakeholders – executives, founders, investors –don't live in the product trenches. To get buy-in, you need to clearly articulate: What problem we're solving, for whom, why it matters, and how this work moves the needle. Be sure to watch/listen to our entire conversation with Michelle, so that you can catch her thoughts about: How her team at Netflix utilized the Balanced Portfolio Framework. The role AI can play in balancing bets that deliver user benefit and business value. Michelle’s new start-up plans for building connections and community.

In this episode of Travel Along with Laura, we're back on the volcanic island of Ometepe in Lake Nicaragua.  This time, we head to the lowlands between the two volcanoes to kayak along the Río Istian, where the wildlife is on display- howler monkeys calling from the trees, caimans gliding below the surface, toothy tropical gars submerged in the muck and the curious song of the Tungara frog echoing through the dusk. Along the way, we'll walk to a mountainside ecolodge, hear about Laura's ongoing truce with Google Maps, and get a glimpse into rural life on the island. Plus, we'll dive into the legend of Lake Nicaragua's freshwater sharks through a catchy song written by Raúl Planas—an ode to a creature that may or may not still haunt these waters.Musical Credits:Track: Summer Samba (Samba de Verao) by Mu'gambi and Playa Valencia by The Like Thes provided by: Slipstream Music https://slipstreammusic.comEl Tiburon del Lago Cacibolca was used with permission from its authors:  Raul Planas and the Ritmo en Los Barrios project.Support the showBuy any of these products that I fully stand behind- and I'll earn a commission.
