Dans cet épisode de "L'invité de la matinale", Marc Bourreau reçoit Marcel Babin, océanographe, chercheur au CNRS à l'Université Laval au Canada, ainsi que directeur scientifique de la mission Tara Polaris. Cette expédition hors norme vient de prendre son envol depuis le port de Lorient, avec pour objectif d'observer au plus près l'évolution du climat et de l'écosystème dans l'océan glacial arctique.L'invité nous plonge dans les détails fascinants de ce navire hybride, la Tara Polar Station, conçu pour dériver dans la banquise pendant plusieurs mois. Avec ses formes arrondies, son épaisse coque en aluminium et ses 4 étages, ce bâtiment semble tout droit sorti d'un roman de Jules Verne. Mais son but est bien réel : documenter les changements drastiques qui affectent cette région du globe, la plus touchée par le réchauffement climatique.Au-delà de l'aspect technique, Marcel Babin nous fait découvrir les enjeux scientifiques de cette expédition. Pendant une vingtaine d'années, les chercheurs vont étudier en détail l'océan, la banquise et l'atmosphère arctique, afin de mieux comprendre les liens entre le climat et la vie microscopique. Des observations inédites qui devraient permettre de faire des découvertes aux frontières de nos connaissances actuelles.Parmi les défis à relever, il évoque notamment la cohabitation au sein de cette station polaire, où 12 personnes seulement vont devoir vivre et travailler ensemble pendant de longs mois, dans des conditions extrêmes. Les risques liés à la présence d'ours polaires sont également abordés, avec des consignes de sécurité bien rodées.Au-delà de l'Arctique, l'océanographe explique aussi les répercussions que peuvent avoir les changements observés dans cette région sur le climat en Europe. Un lien étroit qui se traduit notamment par des épisodes de canicule de plus en plus fréquents.Cet épisode offre une plongée dans les coulisses d'une aventure scientifique hors norme, à la conquête de l'Arctique et de ses mystères. Une mission ambitieuse qui devrait nous en apprendre davantage sur les impacts du changement climatique, et sur la fragilité de notre planète.Hébergé par Audiomeans.

 "Pick an immersive subgenre, and I think that it can be made better by the escape room model." For the Season 11 finale of Reality Escape Pod, we're turning the spotlight inward. After years of writing reviews, producing podcasts, running RECON, hosting Tours, and building a community around immersive experiences, we asked our audience a simple question "What do you think?" Hundreds of you responded to the Room Escape Artist audience census, sharing how you engage with our work, what you want more of, and where we can improve. Lisa Spira, editor-in-chief of Room Escape Artist, data wizard, and David's wife, joins us on the podcast to for a deep dive into the census results. We received over 200 responses to our massive audience survey covering topics ranging from audience demographics and favorite content formats to the future of escape rooms, the rise of immersive experiences, community feedback, and some honest critiques. We gained perspective on what our audience enjoys, their awareness of REA content, and how they consume immersive experiences. Some results were truly surprising, including how many escape rooms the average participant plays per year. We also asked for your feedback, critiques, and worries. We addressed many of the criticisms with honest and candid replies about why some aspects of Room Escape Artist have changed over the years. We also acknowledged times when we got things wrong and explained the reasoning behind the editorial schedule and structure. I really enjoyed sharing this behind-the-scenes look at Room Escape Artist. I thought the most interesting parts of this episode were seeing how much thought goes into the choices behind the content we put out, why certain reviews get written, why some trends excite us, and how difficult it is to serve a global community with wildly different interests. This was a conversation about growth, and the future of Room Escape Artist, REPOD, and the escape room industry. When it comes to escape rooms, there is room for different kinds of play. We're seeing experiences that blur the lines between escape rooms, theater, games, and adventure. As David puts it, "The medium continues to evolve, and that's exactly what makes it exciting." I couldn't agree more. Whether you found us through reviews, podcasts, RECON, Tours, or somewhere else entirely, we appreciate being part of your escape room journey. Thank you to everyone who took the time to fill out the census and share feedback, and to those who support our community and continue listening.     Episode Sponsors We are immensely grateful to our sponsors this season: REA Patreon Backers, PG's Playhouse, Buzzshot, and the Reality Escape Convention.

This week I'm sitting down with Gasia Hindoyan, founder of BX Studio — a boutique fitness studio with two locations in Laval and Bois Franc that has been reshaping how women move for seven years.   What started as a barre and boxing concept became something far more powerful after Gasia's own postpartum complications pushed her toward Pilates as rehabilitation. That personal transformation led her back to school, into 300+ hours of instructor training, and ultimately to building her own certification school inside the studio.   We get into the real conversation behind the Pilates boom — who's actually qualified to teach, what shortcuts cost clients long-term, and why Gasia believes the studios that survive the hype will be the ones rooted in education and community.   We also go deep on what it actually looks like to build a business through pregnancy, postpartum, and a global pandemic — and the honest trade-offs between being a present mom and a hands-on founder.   In this episode:         •     Why certification in Pilates matters more than most studios will tell you       •     Strength training vs. Pilates — do you really have to choose?       •     The financial conversations every entrepreneurial couple needs to have       •     What the next chapter of the Pilates industry actually looks like   Follow us on socials:  https://www.instagram.com/carinebadran/ https://www.instagram.com/taketheleadpodcast/  Subscribe to our newsletter: https://www.carine-badran.kit.com/b8b87327db/

"The connection between the solver and the setter is really important." If you're a daily puzzle lover, your morning might start something like mine: pouring a cup of coffee and jumpstarting the brain with my favorite snack-sized games. Chief among those are the snappy games at LinkedIn, such as Queens, Zip, Tango, and Patches. The man behind this collection of puzzles powering LinkedIn's Games section is Thomas Snyder. Thomas Snyder is a three-time World Sudoku Champion, co-author of the foundational puzzle design book Puzzlecraft, and Principal Puzzle Master at LinkedIn Games. A Harvard trained chemist, Thomas is a scientist at heart. He has a methodical approach to puzzle solving and puzzle crafting that makes for satisfying logic puzzles. However, there's also a lot of artistry to the puzzles Thomas designs. Throughout the conversation, he emphasizes that each puzzle put out by LinkedIn is handcrafted. There is a playfulness and inventiveness to the layout and solve path. There's a dance between the puzzle creator and the solver. Thomas posts videos on LinkedIn of his solve path for the games, and he talks to us about the conversation that sparks. In fact, the whole reason behind the puzzle offerings at LinkedIn was to create opportunities for users to connect socially and bond over the games. I especially appreciated talking about puzzles that empathize with the solver and how to create approachable puzzles that can still delight expert players. LinkedIn just launched their newest game Wend, which is Thomas's take on a word search puzzle. We also played a game I wrote, which Thomas solved embarrassingly (for me) quickly, but we had fun, which is the whole point. If you enjoy zippy puzzle games, check out the LinkedIn Collection, and for even more fun games-on-the-go, listen to PG's Playhouse.     Episode Sponsors We are immensely grateful to our sponsors this season: REA Patreon Backers, PG's Playhouse, Buzzshot, and the Reality Escape Convention.

Avec le Père Jean-Marie Moura et Mgr Matthieu Dupont, évêque de Laval

Marianne de Boisredon, le jour où son mari lui a demandé le cadeau qu'elle souhaitait recevoir pour son anniversaire, n'a pas hésité un instant à lui dire : « Partir marcher seule sur les chemins de Compostelle ». Cette réponse était inattendue, venue d'une femme à la vie très remplie, autant sur le plan familial que de ses engagements personnels dont elle avait déjà témoigné sur Zeteo (#26).Cet appel à partir, qu'elle ressentait non comme un désir mais une nécessité, a transformé sa vie. Si les circonstances de la vie, et les complications liées à l'épidémie du Covid ont compliqué sa décision, Marianne de Boisredon a tenu son pari. Relier Saint-Jacques de Compostelle seule à pied.Et c'est peut-être sur le Camino que l'appel à la marche auquel répondait Marianne s'est transformé en appel à renaître et à renouveler profondément sa vie. À peine revenue chez elle, une fois dégagée de ses responsabilités au sein du mouvement Fondacio, elle a repris la marche… pour le fameux pèlerinage de Shikoku, au Japon.De cette marche circulaire ponctuée par la visite d'une centaine de temples dans l'une des îles de l'archipel japonais, inscrite au cœur de la spiritualité bouddhiste et pratiquée depuis de nombreux siècles, Marie-Édith Laval a témoigné sur Zeteo, il y a quelques années (#187).Revenue du Japon, Marianne de Boisredon savait déjà qu'elle n'avait pas achevé sa marche. Depuis de nombreuses années, elle ressentait une autre nécessité. Celle d'aller marcher jusqu'à Assise, à la rencontre du Povorello. Partie de la Basilique de Vézelay, elle y parviendra, après avoir surmonté une épreuve douloureuse.Dans la force, la profondeur et la simplicité de son témoignage, Marianne de Boisredon nous invite à répondre et à rester fidèles aux désirs et aux rêves les plus forts que nous ressentons en nous. Elle nous démontre qu'à chaque pas, s'agrandit l'ouverture du cœur et de l'esprit, à la rencontre de la nature, de l'autre et du silence.Pour lire Marcher pour renaître, le livre de Marianne de Boisredon, cliquer ici.--------------     VERS UN ÉTÉ SANS NUAGESL'été est imminent, un temps de l'année privilégié pour beaucoup pour aller à la recherche d'un second souffle, pour sortir des routines, pour vivre des expériences nouvelles, pour se renouveler. C'est la raison pour laquelle Zeteo vous emmène, cette semaine et la prochaine, à marcher à la rencontre du monde, pour une autre rencontre avec soi-même, et avec les autres.C'est aussi la raison pour laquelle Zeteo ne fera pas la pause cet été, comme chaque année d'ailleurs, afin de vous offrir toute une série d'épisodes magnifiques. Certains d'entre eux sont déjà enregistrés, d'autres vont l'être dans les jours et semaines qui viennent. L'été est toujours un moment fort d'écoute pour ce podcast, avec des invités que vous allez découvrir, ou redécouvrir pour certains que vous êtes très nombreux à aimer. Je suis sûr qu'ils ne vous décevront pas.C'est le temps de la préparation de l'été, il y aura celui de sa traversée, pour vous, comme pour Zeteo. Un été que j'espère sans trop de nuages, même s'ils sont parfois nécessaires.Depuis près d'un an, j'ai lancé beaucoup moins d'appels aux dons qu'avant. Cette année, je ne l'ai fait qu'à la période pascale. C'est pourquoi il m'a paru juste de lancer ce nouvel appel, aujourd'hui, il y en aura probablement un autre au cœur de l'été.Cet appel me semble juste, Zeteo est d'accès entièrement gratuit, pour des contenus et des épisodes que vous pouvez écouter autant de fois que vous le souhaitez. Il n'y a pas de limites, pas de barrières d'accès, pas d'inscription requise sauf pour ceux qui souhaitent s'abonner aux newsletters, gratuites elles aussi. Je trouve merveilleux que Zeteo ne dépende d'aucune autre forme de revenus que votre générosité, pour ne pas avoir d'autres dépendances que celle du cœur et de la gratuité.Je suis très touché par les si nombreux messages que je reçois, ils confirment la montée constante de l'audience d'un podcast qui touche de plus en plus de monde, puisque sa progression, en cette 7ème année, est encore plus dynamique que les précédentes au même moment. Je suis très confiant pour l'avenir de ce podcast, tant qu'il répondra à des attentes et des besoins, tant qu'il sera ajusté au canal infini de la bienveillance divine.Pour permettre notamment à ceux et celles qui ne peuvent pas faire un don, d'écouter Zeteo, cet appel est destiné à ceux et celles qui peuvent le faire par une offrande. Je ne pense pas ici à ceux qui en ont fait une récemment ou il y a plus longtemps. Peu importe le montant, un don est toujours juste, et c'est à chaque fois une bénédiction, comme les messages que je reçois. Je finis cet appel en exprimant toute ma gratitude pour vous, auditeurs, auditrices, donateurs, donatrices, je vous donne rendez-vous dans quelques semaines peut-être pour de nouveaux messages, et je vous confie déjà à Marianne qui va nous emmener sur les chemins de Compostelle, de Shikoku et d'Assise, un vrai tour du monde !--------------    Pour soutenir l'effort de Zeteo, podcast sans publicité et d'accès entièrement gratuit, vous pouvez faire un don.

" There are three defining characteristics of a Sauve Qui Peut game: an unusual underlying concept, commitment to the bit, and beautifully painted murals." They do things a little differently around here. That's been Steven Keller's personal design philosophy ever since he started making his first escape rooms at his company, Sauve Qui Peut, located in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu in Quebec, Canada. If you've ever played games at this company, you'd know the house style is that there is no house style. Every game feels distinct and different, almost like they were designed by different people. And yet Steven is the mad genius behind it all. Steven is one of the most instinct-driven designers I've encountered in this industry. He designed his first three rooms within five months of having the idea, before he'd even signed a lease. He deliberately avoided playing other escape rooms early on so he wouldn't get influenced. However, he eventually abandoned this philosophy when he realized that Egyptian-themed rooms were not, in fact, his invention. What hasn't changed is his core approach: start with one really cool thing, build around it, and figure out the story last. Like I said, they do things a little differently around here. However, Steve doesn't do it alone. Shawn Mercier is Steven's right hand man, and he joins us also to give us the nuts and bolts perspective. He started as a gamemaster, began quietly fixing and improving mechanisms, and pretty soon made himself indispensable. Shawn introduced more sophisticated and reliable tech to Sauve Qui Peut's rooms. He helps keep everything running smoothly, all before he turned 26! We know, because he celebrated his birthday with us on the day of our recording. Together, Steve and Shawn are responsible for some of the most inventive and, yes, slightly unhinged escape room design in Quebec. I really appreciated hearing Steven talk about his design process. There's a madcap creative improv quality to it, and it's part of what makes their games so quirky and memorable. If you enjoyed this conversation and want to check out the games at Sauve Qui Peut, consider joining us on one of our future Escape, Immerse, Explore tours to the Montreal area.   Full Show Notes   Episode Sponsors We are immensely grateful to our sponsors this season: REA Patreon Backers, PG's Playhouse, Buzzshot, and the Reality Escape Convention.

“We really wanted to make a game that would encourage creators to make more weird stuff.” Low budgets, tight spaces, and a DIY mentality. As it turns out, indie filmmaking and creating escape rooms have a lot in common. James Hamer-Morton & Charlie Bond of Deadlocked Escape Rooms in Reading, UK, know this better than anyone. They joined us on REPOD to talk about creating their quirky, puzzle-driven games. James and Charlie actually met as actors on the set of a film, and they've been partners in life and business ever since. David even wrote a post about one of their projects, Echoes of Darkness: A Star Wars Fan Film . These origins really honed their “do-it-yourself” ethos. As Charlie puts it, “It originally stems from a lack of funds. But also it's enjoyable to do it yourself, and to learn a new skill in the process.” Where Deadlocked really shines though is in their creativity. Their games have quirky mechanics and stories. They've employed clever tricks to make the sets feel larger than they are. Relying on quick wits and creativity have allowed Deadlocked to stay nimble. During the pandemic, they created a wonderful virtual game called The Insiders that gave them global recognition in the escape room world. This led to them giving a talk at the very first RECON about Adapting Your Escape Room Business to New Mediums. James and Charlie have spent the better part of a decade building one of the UK's most distinctive escape room companies. Deadlocked is currently ranked the #1 escape room in the UK, and their newest game, The Reading Witch, recently topped the TERPECA rankings for England. One of my favorite stories from this episode is about the time they were playing an escape room and they stopped mid-game to help the owners fix a broken prop. They are two of the most charismatic, creative, and relentlessly hands-on people in the business, and I hope you enjoy listening to this episode as much as we enjoyed recording it.       Episode Sponsors We are immensely grateful to our sponsors this season: REA Patreon Backers, PG's Playhouse, Buzzshot, and the Reality Escape Convention.

"We don't fear spoilers because a good room has more to offer than just the set that you saw in a photo. It must be something that you feel also." When most people think of an escape room, they think of puzzles, padlocks, with maybe a light narrative slapped on top. When Rémy Strobbe and the team at Live Cinema created Zone 51, however, they thought: okay, but what if instead of solving puzzles, you were inside a movie? Rémy is the co-founder and creative director of Live Cinema, based in Paris, France. He joins us on REPOD to talk about Zone 51, a jaw-dropping 120-minute experience set across 550 square meters, 25 rooms, 3 live performers , and a cinematic globe-spanning story. David calls it "one of  the most remarkable experiences that I have seen in the immersive world." Zone 51 begins the moment you walk through the door. Indeed, for those unaware, they might be convinced that they're here to watch an actual movie. As you can see, the set is absolutely gorgeous. Rémy talks candidly about the difficult journey to creating this game. Amongst their troubles, they had a construction partner go bankrupt mid-build and take €80,000 with them, and a pandemic that halted production for over a year. He also shares the secrets behind the tight pipelining schedule that makes this project financially feasible. I especially loved hearing Rémy talk about their philosophy on marketing and allowing players to record their games. Live Cinema leans into sharing striking visuals. As Rémy put it, a good experience has more to offer than just what you see in a photo. And those photos are spectacular. Zone 51 is currently bookable in French, with limited English sessions available by email. English availability is expected to expand by fall 2026 — which happens to align perfectly with the Escape Immerse Explore Paris Tour. Zone 51 (review coming soon) will be on the Tour, along with a few other games from the same creators at Lock Academy. If you enjoyed this episode, consider joining us on the Tour, if it hasn't already sold out!     Episode Sponsors We are immensely grateful to our sponsors this season: REA Patreon Backers, PG's Playhouse, Buzzshot, and the Reality Escape Convention.
