In this special Fan Mail Friday re-run, originally recorded during our 36th-anniversary trip to Kona, Jay and I dive into your candid questions about marriage—intimacy after babies, navigating NFP, dating on a budget, perimenopause and HRT, staying close in busy seasons, and why Christ at the center changes everything. It's honest, practical, and hope-filled (heads-up: rated “M” for Marriage). If you missed it the first time—or need the encouragement again—this one's for you. Show up for your marriage—you'll be encouraged.Prime Sponsor: No matter where you live, visit the Functional Medical Institute online today to connect with Drs. Mark and Michele Sherwood.

Elle nous raconte également sa course et les ajustements apportés à sa préparation en vue du Black Canyon 100K, une épreuve qui exige beaucoup plus de vitesse. (Elle ne participera finalement pas à la course en raison d'une blessure.)

This week on Talking Triathlon we start with a recap of Challenge Sir Bani Yas, where Jonas Schomburg took the win in the men's race and Katrine Græsbøll Christensen claimed victory in the women's. We break down how the race played out and what it told us about early season form. We then turn to Hayden Wilde after he said he had multiple professional cycling contracts on the table, and discuss how realistic that claim is and whether elite triathletes could genuinely step into the professional peloton. Jelle Geens has also said he wants to win Kona, and we dig into why he might be exactly the type of athlete who could make that leap successfully, along with what would need to go right for it to happen. The episode finishes with a deep dive into Supertri's newly announced 2026 format. With sprint races folded into mass participation events and a single standalone Grand Final, we talk through our disappointment with the direction of the series. That leads into a broader discussion about the uncomfortable reality facing the sport, that triathlon has struggled to monetise broadcast, costs continue to rise, and amateur athletes are increasingly frustrated with how expensive the sport has become.

In this powerful and honest episode of The Everyday Ironman Podcast, we sit down with Emma Tucker, an Age Group Athlete from Australia whose journey to Ironman is nothing short of remarkable. Emma opens up about living an unhealthy lifestyle before a serious health scare pushed her to make a change that would alter the course of her life. Over the span of a year, she lost nearly 80 kilos, openly sharing her decision to undergo weight loss surgery and documenting the entire process on Instagram to help educate and support others.Emma walks us through relearning how to eat, exercise, and manage stress—including starting with just an hour a day on an elliptical in her garage and changing jobs to create a healthier lifestyle. She shares how her Ironman journey began by simply running from one road reflector to the next, her unique fueling strategy of eight small meals per day, lessons learned from her first major injury, and a hilarious moment when her physical therapist “ratted her out” to her coach. The conversation culminates with Emma qualifying for and racing the 2025 Ironman World Championships in Kona.This episode is a must-listen for any Age Group Athlete chasing big goals, one small step at a time.#TheEverydayIronman #AgeGroupAthlete #IronmanJourney #TriathlonLife #IronmanWorldChampionships #Kona2025 #TransformationStoryFit, Healthy & Happy Podcast Welcome to the Fit, Healthy and Happy Podcast hosted by Josh and Kyle from Colossus...Listen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifySupport the show

Rekonštrukcia budov na ubytovanie a šport je po novom definovaná ako samostatný majetok.Schválené znenie zákona o dani z príjmov zavádza možnosť samostatného odpisovania technického zhodnotenia a opráv vykonaných na týchto budovách.

In this episode of the IRONMAN Insider Podcast, host Matt Lieto sits down with two-time IRONMAN champion Hannah Berry, one of the sport's most consistent and quietly respected competitors. Hannah reflects on her fourth-place finish at the 2025 IRONMAN World Championship in Kona, a performance that showcased her strength, patience, and ability to execute on triathlon's biggest stage.She breaks down her Kona race in detail, sharing how smart pacing, disciplined nutrition, and heat management helped her move steadily through the field as others faltered. Hannah also discusses racing as an underdog, the value of consistency across all three disciplines, and why Kona rewards athletes who stay composed when conditions turn brutal.The conversation looks ahead to racing IRONMAN New Zealand on home soil, the evolving dynamics of elite women's racing, and adapting to the new 20-meter drafting rules. Insightful, grounded, and refreshingly honest, this episode offers a compelling look at an athlete whose best racing emerges when the race gets hardest.

The things we love most about Taylor Knibb is her honesty, her detailed & analytical story telling and her contagious energy. Today's podcast has all of that in spades. Taylor goes through her 2025 year in detail we've not come close to hearing anywhere else. From a tough start to the year with burn out, stress and T100 contract negotiations to the crazy events that unfolded when she collapsed with 2km to go whilst in the lead of the Ironman World Championships in Kona, we go into it all. Taylor was as honest and open as you'll likely ever hear her and all we can do is thank her for that because it made for a podcast that's a bit different from your standard one. We hope you enjoy it.

This week on Talking Triathlon we ask the big question behind the episode title: can Kristian Blummenfelt win Kona? We dive into Kristian's extraordinary VO2 numbers and discuss what they actually tell us, whether they translate to Ironman world championship success? We also cover the rebrand of the Bianchi Pro Triathlon Team, with Bianchi stepping in as title sponsor after replacing BMC, and what that means for podcast hosts who have already ordered a Bianch TT bike. From there we discuss Ironman's new 20 metre draft zone rule and while we think it is good for fair racing, it will be bad for broadcast and fans of the sport. Looking ahead to the weekend, we preview Challenge Sir Bani Yas with a strong field including Pierre Le Corre, Emil Holm, Henri Schoeman, Fenella Langridge, Natalie Van Coevorden and Ellie Salthouse. We also recap racing from Qatar, where Brad Weiss took the men's win and Rachel Klamer claimed victory in the women's race.

Jaké vztahy očekává prezident Zelenskyj s novou vládou Andreje Babiše? Jaký přínos – a jaká úskalí – můžou mít úpravy stavebního zákona, které ve Sněmovně prosazuje nová vládní koalice? A v jakých podmínkách se rozbíhá letošní ročník Jizerské 50?

Co by přinesla novela stavebního zákona, kterou dnes v prvním čtení projednává sněmovna? Měla odborná a profesní sdružení šanci návrh vládních poslanců ovlivnit? Nejde nová úprava příliš na ruku velkým developerům? A jak ovlivnily délku stavebního řízení změny, které ve stavebním zákonu prosadily minulá a předminulá vláda?

Scholars of international relations, political thought, and India's international and diplomatic history are increasingly interested in the relevance of non-alignment in Indian foreign policy. The origins of such policies and debates can be traced back to Nehru's conceptualization of non-alignment at the height of the Cold War. In this deeply researched study of his years as Prime Minister, 1947–64, in The Nehru Years: An International History of Indian Non-Alignment (Cambridge UP, 2025) Dr. Swapna Kona Nayudu utilizes archival research in multiple languages to uncover Indian diplomatic influence in four major international events: the Korean War, the Suez Crisis, the Hungarian Revolution, and the Congo Crisis. Through this detailed examination, she explores the contested meaning of non-alignment, a policy almost unique in its ambiguity and its centrality to a nation's political life. The resulting history is a thoughtful critique of India's diplomatic position as the only non-aligned founding member of the UN. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Send us a textWhat happens when grit, humor, and sharp self-advocacy meet a system that still talks over disabled people? We sit down with author, podcaster, and athlete Win Charles for a wide-open conversation about cerebral palsy, pain that won't be ignored, and the stubborn hope that keeps her training for Kona even as she prepares for a hip replacement at 37.Win breaks down what CP actually feels like—spasticity that clamps like a rubber band, a startle reflex that can derail recovery—and the cascading impact of a fall that left her hip 50 degrees out of the socket. She shares the moments that cut deepest: being dismissed at the ER, a pre-op staffer asking others to sign for her, and an anesthesiologist who brushed off her documented allergy. Through it all, she models what real advocacy sounds like: clear language, repeated boundaries, and a refusal to surrender decision-making power over her own body.We widen the lens to education, where accommodations exist on paper but often vanish in practice. Win calls out professors who skip IEPs, highlights the invisible labor students carry, and offers concrete steps for allies: learn the basics of CP and disability, shadow a special education teacher, and design access before it's requested. Then we come back to the everyday—the narrow clinic doorway, the broken door button, the shower that turns into a puzzle—because access lives or dies in these small, solvable details.There's joy here too. Win's Ironman story challenges every lazy myth about disability and ambition, and her rebuild plan after surgery is both disciplined and hopeful. The throughline is simple and strong: speak to the person, not the aide; hold the door when the button fails; believe people when they describe their bodies; and when it's your turn to move, just do it.If this resonated, follow the show, share it with a friend, and leave a review to help others find conversations that center dignity, access, and action. Your support keeps these stories in the light.Support the show

Neste episódio do @cafecomtriathlon, recebemos o Head Coach da EBTT, @eduardobraz_coach, para um bate-papo sobre as principais diferenças entre as provas do Mundial de IRONMAN em Kona (Havaí) e Nice (França).Falamos sobre:

Our first guests of 2026 are familiar names in endurance sport here in Ireland; Rob Cummins and Aisling Coppinger who share with us an honest and inspiring conversation about life, love and longevity in sport.  Owners of Wheelworx, they are well known faces at triathlon and multisport events as both athletes and event support.  In this episode, Rob and Aisling reflect on their individual paths into triathlon, from early beginnings as novices to competing on the world stage.  Rob shares his long journey through IRONMAN racing, including early doubts and how his training approach has evolved over time, whilst Aisling shares insight into her transition from running into triathlon and the challenge of overcoming a deep fear of open water swimming.  A key focus of this episode is their 2025 season, where they embraced a whirlwind World Championship Tour that saw them race and support each other at the IRONMAN World Championship in Nice where Rob raced, Kona where Aisling raced and Marbella with both of them racing the IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship where their season culminated in the Costa Del Sol.  They offer insight into the demands of each event, from race conditions and strategy to the emotional impact of lining up in Kona. Both Aisling and Rob reflect on what these experiences mean to them beyond results, highlighting gratitude, perspective, enjoyment and the journey to the start and finish line of each race they embraced.  The conversation also explores how they balance commitment to their training with running a successful and busy business whilst maintaining a strong personal relationship. Training together, supporting each other through setbacks and simplifying routines have become central to their approach. This is a great chat with Aisling and Rob, with reflections on what triathlon has given them and how they look ahead to future races with curiosity rather than pressure, emphasising teamwork, resilience and the importance of enjoying the journey. This renewed energy and perspective on triathlon racing, a far cry from the years of 'Chasing Kona' as detailed in Rob's book published almost a decade ago. 

E nesta semana a gente recebe Fernanda Pileggi no MT Cast. Na vida sem rotina de publicitária, o esporte não era prioridade. Mas ela foi escolhida para um trabalho com grupos de corrida e, sem saber, isso mudaria a sua vida. Já em 2025, na sua estreia no IM Full, veio a vaga para Kona mas com muito perrengue na prova. Confira nosso papo!

Ministryně financí Alena Schillerová říká, že je pro novou koalici obtížné udržet schodek letošního státního rozpočtu pod 300 miliardami. Porušila by nová koalice deficitem zákon o rozpočtové odpovědnosti? Pokud ano, jaké by to mělo následky? „Zákon nepředjímá, že by mohla nastat taková situace. Žádná sankce za to daná není,“ říká v pořadu Dvacet minut Radiožurnálu Tomáš Holub, bývalý náměstek ministra financí a fiskální expert z Centra veřejných financí Univerzity Karlovy.

Hawaiian Concert Guide – Show #696 Show #696 weaves together contemporary Hawaiian mele, masterful slack key guitar, a reverent royal prayer, and a playful detour into retro exotica—then returns home with modern harmonies and a closing affirmation of identity. Detailed Playlist “Kaulana ʻo Maui” — Kamalei Kawaa (1:20) Album: Mānaiakalani A short, vivid mele that celebrates the renown of Maui. Kamalei Kawaa opens the episode with a strong sense of place and cultural grounding, offering an inviting entry point into the show's island-centered storytelling. Despite its brief runtime, the track sets an intentional tone: rooted, respectful, and warmly personal. “Hawaiian Rainbow” — Kahiau Lam Ho (2:50) Album: Hoʻomālamalama Bright and uplifting, this track carries a message of hope and renewal. Kahiau Lam Ho's contemporary approach pairs accessible melody with a distinctly Hawaiian sensibility, making it a feel-good moment that still honors cultural continuity. The song's optimism complements the episode's opening theme of place and belonging. “Kona Moon” — Kahiau Lam Ho (2:37) Album: Hoʻomālamalama A mellow, romantic island-night reflection inspired by the Kona coast. The pacing and phrasing invite listeners into a quieter emotional space—warm, intimate, and unhurried. Placed after “Hawaiian Rainbow,” it shifts the mood from celebratory brightness to a more contemplative evening glow. “East Side Slack Key” — Kawika Kahiapo (4:01) Album: Kuʻu Manaʻo A standout instrumental showcasing the depth of kī hō‘alu (slack key guitar). Kawika Kahiapo's touch is both precise and expressive, balancing rhythmic drive with open, resonant harmony. This track provides a spacious listening moment—ideal for appreciating the nuance and tradition embedded in Hawaiian guitar craft. “Nani Wale Kualoa” — Kawika Kahiapo (3:53) Album: Kuʻu Manaʻo A musical love letter to Kualoa—its beauty, presence, and sense of mana. The melody and phrasing feel place-centered and reverent, continuing the episode's theme of honoring specific landscapes through sound. The pairing with “East Side Slack Key” creates a strong mid-show slack key feature block. “Queen's Prayer” — Jerome Koko, Daniel Ho & Tia Carrere (3:28) Album: Makaha Sons Memoirs A deeply reverent rendition of Queen Liliʻuokalani's prayer, offered with restraint and respect. The arrangement emphasizes reflection and spiritual gravity rather than ornamentation, allowing the message and history to remain central. This performance serves as a meaningful cultural anchor in the episode—devotional, dignified, and moving. “Ned's Redemption” — The Waitiki 7 (1:17) Album: Adventures In Paradise A brief, cinematic exotica vignette—playful and atmosphere-driven. Positioned after “Queen's Prayer,” it functions as a palate cleanser: a quick tonal pivot that keeps the episode dynamic while still staying within an island-adjacent musical universe. “Sacha-Cha” — The Waitiki 7 (2:35) Album: Adventures In Paradise Upbeat and retro, this track leans into classic lounge/exotica energy with rhythmic flair. It's a lighthearted interlude that adds variety and fun—an intentional shift that refreshes the ear before the program returns to contemporary Hawaiian songwriting and harmony. “Home” — Waipuna (4:22) Album: Manaʻo Pili A heartfelt modern Hawaiian composition centered on belonging and emotional roots. Waipuna's polished harmonies and contemporary production create a sense of welcome and familiarity—bringing the episode back from the playful exotica detour into a grounded, lyric-forward Hawaiian space. “E Ku Kanaka” — Hoʻokena (4:57) Album: Hoʻokena 5 A powerful closing statement affirming identity, pride, and perseverance. Hoʻokena's folk-rooted approach and steady drive make this a resonant finale—leaving listeners with a strong sense of purpose and cultural continuity. A fitting conclusion to an episode built around place, heritage, and the living voice of Hawaiian music today. Episode Summary Show #696 moves from place-based mele and contemporary Hawaiian songwriting into a featured slack key set, pauses for a reverent royal prayer, and then takes a playful side-trip through exotica—before returning “Home” and closing with a bold affirmation in “E Ku Kanaka.” A complete listen that reflects both the roots and the range of Hawaiian and island-influenced music.

This episode is bittersweet for me. I'm sharing the heartbreaking loss of my German Shepherd, Kona, and what it was like saying goodbye, not just for me, but for my kids, who grew up with her by their side. Grief has a way of stopping time… and also reminding you how precious it is.From there, we talk about the energy of the new year: the shedding, the forward momentum, and why this one already feels different. I share a manifestation practice I'm trying in 2026, why I'm writing my goals as if they've already happened, and how I'm working to release long-held limiting beliefs around love, career, and the idea that you can't have it all.A word from my sponsors:Kahlua - Find Kahlúa Dunkin Caramel Swirl at retailers nationwide, including Walmart, Total Wine, Albertsons, Kroger, Ralphs, Safeway, BevMo, Publix, and more.

Od naftne industrije do mirisa Plazme. Od života u koferima do potrage za domom. U 351. epizodi Pojačala, Ivan je ugostio Mariju Trkulju Jordevu , autorku i vizuelnu umetnicu čiji je životni put definisan stalnim kretanjem i potragom za "sidrom". Rođena u Skoplju, odrasla u Moskvi, a školovana u Ljubljani, Marija sa slušaocima deli svoje jedinstveno iskustvo odrastanja između različitih kultura, jezika i obrazovnih sistema. Razgovor vodi kroz njenu neobičnu karijernu putanju - od želje da bude pedijatar, preko studija dizajna i novinarstva, fascinacije antropologijom, pa sve do desetogodišnjeg rada u naftnoj industriji (NIS) i trenutne pozicije "čuvara brenda" Plazma u kompaniji Bambi. Ipak, emotivno težište epizode leži u Marijinoj hrabroj i ogoljenoj ispovesti o borbi za potomstvo. Ona otvoreno govori o suočavanju sa endometriozom, bolnim procesima vantelesne oplodnje, emotivnim krizama i "ljubomori" prema tuđoj sreći. Takođe, Marija ruši tabue o majčinstvu, iskreno opisujući postporođajni period, borbu sa gubitkom identiteta i činjenicu da se ljubav prema detetu nekada ne dogodi "na prvi pogled", već se gradi vremenom.

Ele nasceu em São Paulo e, aos dois anos, mudou-se com a família para Bebedouro, onde passou a infância. Começou a nadar aos quatro anos e, ainda criança, participou das primeiras competições. Em 1999 venceu uma etapa regional do Troféu Gustavo Borges, resultado que marcou seus anos na natação competitiva. Aos quatorze anos convenceu a mãe a deixá-lo mudar-se sozinho para Ribeirão Preto em busca do sonho olímpico. Alguns anos depois percebeu que seu futuro não seria nas piscinas e decidiu focar nos estudos para o vestibular. Ingressou na faculdade de medicina da USP de Ribeirão Preto, nadou pouco, mas praticou handebol e futebol. Após um ano sabático em Londres, onde trabalhou como bike courier, voltou ao Brasil, concluiu a faculdade e foi aprovado na residência de oftalmologia. Voltou a nadar e conheceu uma triatleta que despertou nele o interesse pela modalidade. Quando finalmente pôde comprar uma bicicleta, passou a treinar para o triathlon e estreou em 2013, em Pirassununga. No ano seguinte completou sua primeira maratona e também seu primeiro meio Ironman. Em 2015 concluiu a residência e passou mais um ano sabático, desta vez na praia de Maresias. Motivado pelo triathlon, voltou decidido a iniciar uma nova residência, agora em Medicina do Esporte na UNIFESP. Simultaneamente ingressou no doutorado em fisiologia do exercício e passou a trabalhar com a seleção brasileira de natação. Em 2019 disputou seus primeiros campeonatos mundiais, de Ironman 70.3 em Nice e da ITU de Lausanne. Doutorado concluído, em 2021 foi convidado pelo amigo Victor Castello Branco a participar da criação da Z2 Foods, mesmo ano em que mudou-se para Curitiba para trabalhar no Club Athletico Paranaense. A falta de uma rotina que lhe permitisse manter seu estilo de vida praticando triathlon o levou a deixar o futebol e retornar a São Paulo, decidido a lançar o projeto Meu Doc. Aqui retomou o controle da própria agenda e viveu uma temporada marcante no triathlon, estreando em um Ironman, que concluiu abaixo de dez horas. Conquistou a terceira colocação no Ironman 70.3 de São Paulo, participou do Mundial de Ironman em Kona e estreou no Patagonman. Em 2023 correu a Maratona de Boston e venceu o Challenge Floripa entre os amadores. No ano seguinte registrou seu melhor tempo de maratona, em Tóquio, e iniciou o trabalho como docente no Centro Universitário São Camilo. Em 2025 alcançou sua melhor colocação em um Ironman, conquistando o segundo lugar no Japão, e recentemente correu 85 km em sua primeira backyard. Conosco aqui, o médico do esporte, doutor em fisiologia do exercício, médico da seleção brasileira de natação com três participações olímpicas, professor, empreendedor e criador do Meu Doc, que apesar de gostar mais da medicina do que do triathlon, não vive sem o esporte.

Natalie Grabow made history by becoming the first woman ever to finish the IRONMAN World Championship in Kona at the age of 80, a milestone that stands as a powerful testament to resilience, determination and passion. Natalie's journey into sport began in a very different era, growing up at a time when opportunities for women in sport were limited. Despite a naturally competitive spirit, it wasn't until later in life that she found her way into endurance sport, first discovering running in her late thirties before taking on triathlon at the age of 59. In this inspiring episode Natalie reflects on her late start in triathlon, her love for cycling and the mindset that carried her through years of training and competition. She shares insights from her multiple appearances and podium finishes at the Ironman World Championship, including her historic race in Kona this year, where consistency, patience and experience proved just as important as physical strength. Natalie also speaks openly about the obstacles and challenges she's faced along the way, from managing injuries to balancing the demands of training whilst caring for her husband. With the unwavering support of her family, coach and community, she has continued to show up, race and pursue ambitious goals, continuing to challenge expectations and redefine what's possible in endurance sport.  This episode is a powerful and uplifting reminder that age is not a limitation, that it's never too late to begin something new and that perseverance, passion and consistency can carry us further than we ever imagined. Natalie Grabow's story is one of inspiration, wisdom and perspective and one that will resonate far beyond the world of triathlon and endurance sport.

Happy Holidays! The final episode of the season brings Tri Beginner's Luck full circle with a conversation that is as grounding as it is inspiring. Mark Allen, six-time Ironman World Champion, coach, and lifelong student of the sport, joins the show for a story that reminds us why beginners matter and why mindset always wins. What unfolds is not just a highlight reel of victories, but a deeply human journey that began with fear in the water and curiosity sparked by watching Ironman on television.   Mark reflects on his earliest days in triathlon, when swimming felt familiar but the bike and run introduced uncertainty, discomfort, and growth. He shares how persistence, patience, and a willingness to learn carried him from beginner status to the professional ranks, emphasizing that fulfillment in triathlon is not reserved for the fastest athletes, but for those committed to discovering what they are capable of becoming.   The conversation dives into the power of mindset and learning, including lessons from Mark's first races and his ability to manage negative thoughts mid-competition. He speaks candidly about how every race, whether successful or disappointing, offers valuable feedback. With the season's reset theme as a backdrop, this episode encourages reflection, recalibration, and intentional goal-setting, whether the focus is racing fast, staying consistent, or simply continuing to show up.   Mark also revisits his legendary Kona journey, sharing stories of near-misses, mechanical setbacks, and years of frustration before finally claiming the Ironman World Championship title. His breakthrough came not from chasing comparison, but from embracing authenticity and racing as himself. That shift led to a historic performance and serves as a powerful reminder that progress often follows alignment rather than pressure.   As the conversation closes, Mark shares his evolution from athlete to coach and advocate, highlighting the importance of curiosity, balance, and consistency over time. He discusses the continued growth of the Limitless program, a free initiative designed to welcome more women into triathlon by removing barriers and building community. With plans to expand its reach and deepen its impact, his commitment to the grassroots of the sport reflects a legacy rooted in service, access, and long-term influence.   This season finale invites listeners to slow down, reflect, and begin again with intention. Whether you are brand new, starting over, or redefining your relationship with the sport, this episode offers perspective, wisdom, and a renewed belief that there is meaning to be found in every mile.   Let's tri this and we will see you in the new year!    Remember to leave a review, share it with your friends, and follow Tri Beginner's luck on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook.  And send any questions or feedback you have to  tblpodbiz@tribeginnersluck.com. 

Send us a textRian Smoak thought he was chasing an Ironman finish line. But as he tells it, “that finish line became my new start line.” Dr. Kevin White reconnects with a longtime friend and endurance athlete whose story runs far deeper than training plans and race photos. Rian shares how growing up under chronic stress shaped his drive, how a health scare forced him to rethink what “healthy” actually means, and how one defining moment in Kona led to the creation of TRI-DAT: a mission built around helping athletes with different abilities experience their own moments of possibility and pride. In this episode, you'll hear how early pressure and perfectionism quietly tax the nervous system, why purpose can change what the body is capable of, and how trading the chase for status or possessions for a cause rooted in service can radically shift both physical and mental health. If you've been living on alert, this conversation is a reminder that your body isn't broken. It's responding to the environment it's been placed in. Start with one decision that lowers the noise, supports recovery, and moves you closer to a life that feels aligned. You can follow Rian's work and the TRI-DAT mission on Instagram at @tridat365.If you enjoyed this episode, follow The Daily Apple and leave a review.
