Podcasts about Lotus

Rodger Kamenetz is an award-winning poet, author and teacher. He has authored nine books of poetry and several nonfiction books, including (not in chronological order) The History of Last Night's Dream, which earned him an interview with Oprah Winfrey on her “Soul Series” program; Burnt Books; Stalking Elijah, which won the National Jewish Book Award; and his best known book, The Jew in the Lotus, about an historic dialogue between the Dalai Lama and a group of rabbis that became an international bestseller and prompted a reevaluation of Judaism in the light of Buddhist thought. He is also the founder of Natural Dreamwork, an approach to using dreams for spiritual growth. Now he's written a new book, Seeing Into the Life of Things, which is about the use of imagination in the spiritual life. We spoke mainly about that book, but also about many other intriguing and practical topics. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

GoviEx Uranium Inc (TSX-V: GXU, OTCQB: GVXXF) CEO Daniel Major spoke with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's future following the Supreme Court of British Columbia's approval of its arrangement with Tombador Iron. Major described the transaction as “transformational” for GoviEx, built around four key pillars: improved access to capital, enhanced technical expertise, a refreshed leadership team, and a streamlined share structure. He noted that the company's upcoming ASX listing, under the new name Atomic Eagle, will place it alongside peers such as Deep Yellow and Bannerman, giving it exposure to a market that understands African uranium projects. The new entity will start with A$10.5 million in cash from Tombador and an additional A$10 million raised through the transaction—funds that will support continued exploration and development of GoviEx's Muntanga Project in Zambia. Major also highlighted the importance of Matador Capital becoming a significant shareholder group, bringing a track record of success from projects including Boss and Lotus. “We needed to complement our existing strengths—and this partnership achieves exactly that,” he said. The deal received overwhelming shareholder support, with 99% voting in favour. For investors, no action is required during the transition.

Some hauntings begin with fear. Lotus's began with faith. Born a pastor's daughter in Denver, she was raised to cast out demons—until one started fighting back. The family's “blessed” home in Golden, Colorado, hid rot behind the wallpaper and something breathing beneath the stairs. Toys froze to walls. Her sister was bitten by invisible teeth. Her mother was pushed down the basement steps by a black-hooded shape. Prayer didn't stop it. It seemed to feed it. Years later, the evil followed her into adulthood—through a fatal-looking car crash marked with the number 213, through illness, grief, and nights when she woke to whispers saying, You're mine. Every time she turned toward God, the attacks intensified: sleep paralysis, bruises, voices that spoke through her mouth mid-sermon. This isn't just a haunted-house story. It's a true account of spiritual warfare—one woman's lifelong fight between belief and the darkness that never stopped testing it. Lotus no longer preaches deliverance from a pulpit. She preaches it in survival. Her faith is battered but unbroken. Her message is simple: Some battles don't end in victory. They end in endurance. #TrueStory #RealHaunting #SpiritualWarfare #PastorsDaughter #FaithVsDarkness #HauntedHouse #DemonicOppression #DeliveranceStory #ParanormalActivity #Demonic #ChristianParanormal #Evil Love real ghost stories?

The Dangers of Single-Use Plastic BagsSingle-use plastics are extremely harmful to the environment, both in terms of their production and disposal. All plastic creates issues regarding fossil fuel emissions and waste, but single-use plastics are specifically detrimental because they contribute to the immense amounts of waste piling up on our planet. Because these plastics are not biodegradable, according to EarthDay, “79% of plastic that has ever been made still sits in landfills or the natural environment.” While numerous efforts have been made to reduce the amount of single use plastics available, the amount of plastic entering our landfills has yet to substantially decrease. For example, in 2014, California enacted a ban on thin plastic shopping bags at supermarkets and other stores, but allowed customers to purchase bags made with thicker plastics, which retailers argued would make them recyclable and reusable. In reality, consumers were not reusing or recycling the thicker plastic, ultimately leading to an increase in the poundage of plastic trashed per person. Reusable Bags as a Climate SolutionLotus Sustainables aims to eliminate single-use plastic by providing eco-friendly alternatives, with reusable grocery bags and food storage pouches. Founded by Jennifer and Farzan Dehmoubed in 2017, the company aims to eliminate the need for single use plastic. Since its founding, they have been able to divert 5 billion bags from landfills. Lotus also prioritizes ethical and sustainable manufacturing efforts by closely monitoring the production and studying the life cycle of their products. The bags are made with eco-friendly materials such as recycled plastic bottles for fabric and renewable resource products like jute, a plant based fiber. Using these materials ensures that the product is durable and reusable. The process reduces the amount of waste that enters landfills both by using recycled products, and creating a long-term, reusable alternative.Lotus' mission also contains environmental justice initiatives. In pursuit of these goals, Lotus donates 10% of their profits to likeminded companies, including The Plastic Pollution Coalition, the Surfrider Foundation, and Project New Village. Further, according to co-founder Jennifer Dehmoubed, the company donates to “Black-created organizations that focus on food justice, the preservation of land, and enriching agriculture,” with hopes to “repair horrific injustices imprinted in the Earth and bring ownership of the land and agriculture education into the hands and lives of Black people.”Challenges of ImplementationIn order to realize Lotus' goals, consumer demand and legislation must respond to the planet's growing need to eliminate single-use plastic. Without the support of consumers, no amount of legislation or innovation can have an impact. According to Jesse Langley, CEO of Lotus Sustainables, “ Legislation doesn't happen unless there's people behind it…And same thing with businesses, these businesses are not gonna get behind an initiative if Consumers are not looking for it.” About Our GuestJesse Langley is the CEO of Lotus Sustainables and a seasoned entrepreneur in the environmental space, helping to develop climate action plans and greenhouse gas reductions for local governments in California. Lotus Sustainables is a certified B-corp on a mission to eliminate single-use plastic bags.ResourcesNational Resource Defense Council: Single-Use Plastics 101EarthDay: Fact Sheet: Single-Use PlasticsUConn: Lifecycle of Single Use PlasticsABC7: California passed a ban on plastic bags in 2014.

¡Todo el mundo habla de las marcas chinas! Y pocos las conocen. Si te hablan de Audi, BMW, Mazda, Renault o Toyota, por citar solo algunas, más o menos, sabrías “de que van” y las conoces… ¿Y si te hablo de Aywais, BAIC, BYD, Jaecoo, Nio, Omoda o XPeng, por citar solo algunas? ¿Sabes algo de estás marcas? Es probable que no. Vamos a proporcionaros un mapa claro de este laberinto …para que no os perdáis. Este video lo hemos trabajado mucho todo el equipo… y es que para entender el fenómeno chino hay que olvidar ideas preconcebidas y hay que pensar en tres tipos de especies que conviven en un ecosistema feroz. Primero, los gigantes estatales como SAIC o Chery, mastodontes industriales que crecieron al amparo del gobierno y de sus alianzas con fabricantes occidentales. Segundo, los imperios privados como Geely o BYD, creados por empresarios visionarios, que son más ágiles y tienen una ambición global voraz. Y tercero y último, las startups tecnológicas como NIO o XPeng, nacidas en la era del software y con la vista puesta en destronar a Tesla. La estrategia del gobierno chino fue clara: dominar la tecnología de baterías mientras Europa debatía sobre plazos y normativas. El resultado es que han lanzado una ofensiva global con el coche eléctrico como punta de lanza. Su desembarco ya es una realidad: en España, su cuota de mercado en 2025 se acerca peligrosamente al 10 por ciento, casi el doble que en 2024 que fue del 4,2 por ciento... Ahora, conozcamos a algunos de los actores de esta historia con algunos ejemplos de sus productos con valoraciones. Y digo algunos… porque, a día de hoy, es casi imposible hacer un vídeo con todas las marcas chinas que existen. Creo que hemos hecho una buena selección con las más relevantes. CAPITULO 1: AIWAYS EL PIONERO CON DIFICULTADES. Aiways merece una mención por ser uno de los primeros en atreverse a desembarcar en Europa, allá por 2020. A pesar de tener un producto correcto, les ha faltado el músculo financiero y la capacidad de marketing para hacerse un hueco en el mercado. Abrieron el camino, pero corren el riesgo de ser arrollados por los gigantes que vienen detrás. CAPÍTULO 2: BAIC, EL GIGANTE A LA SOMBRA DE MERCEDES. BAIC es un coloso estatal, socio de Mercedes-Benz y Hyundai en China y uno de los mayores accionistas de la propia Mercedes. CAPÍTULO 3: BYD, EL GIGANTE DE LAS BATERÍAS. BYD siglas de "Build Your Dreams" infunde respeto Este gigante privado, que empezó fabricando baterías para móviles, es hoy el mayor productor de vehículos electrificados del mundo. CAPÍTULO 4. CHERY, EL EXPORTADOR REINVENTADO. Chery es un gigante estatal con un pasado complicado, manchado por acusaciones de copias de baja calidad. Pero han aprendido la lección. CAPÍTULO 5: GEELY GROUP, EL IMPERIO ESTRATÉGICO. Geely no es una marca. Ni tampoco una empresa… es un imperio. Este conglomerado privado, dirigido por el brillante estratega Li Shufu. Son dueños de Volvo, Polestar y Lotus, y socios al 50 por ciento de Mercedes-Benz en Smart. Esta jugada les da acceso a muy buena ingeniería y diseño, que luego aplican a sus propias marcas globales. CAPÍTULO 6: GREAT WALL MOTOR, EL ESPECIALISTA EN SUVs. GWM es otro gran fabricante privado, históricamente especializado en SUVs y pick-ups. Su ofensiva se basa en dos pilares. Por un lado, Ora, con coches eléctricos de diseño neoretro muy llamativos y por otro, Wey, su marca premium enfocada en híbridos enchufables de gran lujo. CAPÍTULO 7: NIO & XPENG, VANGUARDIA TECNOLÓGICA. Estas dos startups representan la cara más tecnológica de China. Para muchos son los coches chinos 2.0. No compiten por precio, sino por innovación y por ser la "alternativa a Tesla". CAPÍTULO 8: SAIC MOTOR Y EL FENÓMENO MG. SAIC es el mayor fabricante estatal de China, socio histórico de Volkswagen y General Motors. Compró los restos de la mítica marca británica MG. CAPÍTULO 9. XIAOMI, DE LA ELECTRÓNICA DE CONSUMO... … a los coches. Gigantes de la tecnología como Google o Apple han tenido malas experiencias intentando hacer coches. Pero en China, Xiaomi ha empezado con éxito. CAPÍTULO 10: LEAPMOTOR, SOCIO DE ESTELLANTIS. Stellantis adquirió en 2023 el 20 por ciento de la joven marca china.

Ich habe über 500.000 Euro verloren. Und genau das ist das, was du nicht siehst, wenn du mich heute siehst. Diese Episode ist für dich, wenn du gerade kämpfst, zweifelst oder dich fragst, ob du das alles noch willst. Ich nehme dich mit hinter die Kulissen. In die Momente, in denen Erfolg keine glänzende Geschichte war, sondern ein stilles, ehrliches Aufstehen. Ich spreche darüber, was es wirklich heißt, Verantwortung zu tragen, Resilienz zu leben und sich selbst zu führen und das mitten im Chaos. Du erfährst, warum echter Erfolg nicht im Licht entsteht, sondern im Dunkeln. Warum du wie ein Lotus durch den Schlamm wachsen darfst, um klarer, stärker und wahrhaftiger zu blühen. Das ist Self Leadership. Das ist Leben. Das bist du. Viel Tiefgang mit dieser besonderen Episode. Herzlichst, Carmen

Zdravo. Tokrat začnemo s filozofsko razpravo o tem, ali je svet res padel s tečajev, odkar nas je zapustil David Bowie?! Vmes so se zgodili Trump 1, COVID, Ukrajina, Gaza, Trump 2, Bill Gates pa za dve tretjini planeta 28. oktobra "načrtuje" očarljiv skupinski samomor. Mi pa nadaljujemo z debato o kapitalizmu, distribuciji hrane ter razmišljamo o vplivu medijev na človeško psihologijo in pogled na svet nasploh. Sledi razglas o dvelovniku: našli smo trgovino, ki je odprta LE dva dni na teden. Bravo. Potem pa preidemo k razpravi o delavskem razredu, poštenem plačilu, malicah, ... na koncu se vse skupaj nežno zlije v debato o hrani v nepokvarljivi oblik (nedolžni zajec), svetovni politiki in Revolutu. ⏰ Do konca sveta je še 8 dni.

Hoy vamos a hablar de un tema que me parece clave para entender no solo el presente sino, sobre todo, el futuro inmediato del automóvil. Vamos a responder a dos preguntas aparentemente sencillas: ¿Qué significa hoy en día "Made in Europe"? ¿Qué significa "Made in China"? Olvídate de todo lo que creíais saber, porque las viejas etiquetas ya no sirven. Y ahora, vamos con los “euro-chinos”. Porque la “paternidad” de los coches, fruto de las alianzas, cada vez es menos clara. Una nueva generación de automóviles está conquistando nuestras carreteras. Son coches nacidos de esas alianzas que hace apenas una 5 o 10 años nos habrían parecido ciencia ficción. La unión “euro-china” tiene sus ventajas, pues por un lado tienes tradición, ingeniería y diseño de Europa con el músculo financiero y la increíble agilidad productiva de China. Y que nadie se confunda: hoy no hablamos de copias, ni de imitaciones baratas. Hablamos de una fusión estratégica y, por lo general, inteligente que está redibujando por completo el mapa mundial del motor. Todavía hoy cuando escuchamos "coche chino", nos viene a la cabeza la imagen de un producto de calidad dudosa. Y esto está cambiando a toda velocidad. El desembarco de las marcas chinas en Europa no es una simple invasión comercial al uso: Va más allá, es me atrevo a decir, más peligrosa. Es un movimiento sutil y brillante, porque los gigantes industriales chinos han entendido que para conquistar el exigente mercado occidental no basta con ofrecer un precio bajo. Se necesita diseño, tecnología punta, una seguridad incuestionable y, todavía hoy, sigue ayudando mucho una marca de confianza, una tradición, una historia, un ADN. ¿Y dónde se encuentra todo eso en abundancia? Exacto, en Europa. Por otro lado, marcas europeas con décadas de historia, algunas de ellas en dificultades e incluso al borde de la desaparición, han encontrado en el capital chino el salvavidas que necesitaban. Pero no ha sido un simple rescate. Ha sido una inyección masiva de recursos con la idea de reinventarse y posicionarse como líderes en la nueva era eléctrica. Para hacerlo más fácil, vamos a dividir este fenómeno en tres grandes categorías: Primero, las joyas de la corona europeas que ahora tienen un pasaporte chino. Segundo, las nuevas marcas chinas que han nacido y crecido con un cerebro y un alma de diseño europeo. Y tercero, los matrimonios de conveniencia más recientes, donde dos gigantes se unen para crear una nueva generación de vehículos. Para mí no todo han sido aciertos… hay de todo. Nosotros te lo contamos y tu juzgas. ¡Vamos allá! Categoría 1: Legado europeo con corazón oriental. Aquí es, quizás, donde encontramos las historias más potentes. Lotus. De la ligereza al Hiper-SUV Eléctrico. MG. El Renacer del icono británico. Volvo y Polestar. Modelo de éxito. Categoría 2: Marcas chinas con cerebro europeo. BYD. El gigante que fichó a las estrellas. Lynk & Co. El “Netflix” del automóvil. Categoría 3: Matrimonios de Conveniencia… Smart. Revolución Germano-China. Stellantis y Leapmotor. Un “balón de oxígeno”. ¿Vendrás más? Volvo, MG, Lotus... la lista crece. Y seguirá creciendo. Como veis, el panorama del automóvil ha cambiado para siempre. Ya no se trata de dónde se ensambla la última tuerca, sino de dónde provienen el capital, la tecnología, el diseño y la estrategia. Esta fusión "euro-china" está acelerando la transición eléctrica y aumentando la competencia, lo cual es bueno para nosotros. Surgen muchas preguntas: ¿Es menos europeo un Volvo por tener un dueño chino que ha potenciado su herencia? ¿Es menos chino un BYD por haber sido diseñado por un alemán? Las etiquetas son cada vez más difusas, los estereotipos desaparecen. Hay dos cosas que importan. Una, el producto final. Y muchos de estos coches "euro-chinos" son productos y muy competitivos. Y dos, ¿Dónde van a parar los beneficios? Este asunto, a futuro, es también muy importante… la preponderancia de las marcas europeas y japonesas, está llamada a desaparecer. Conclusión. El concepto de coche "nacional" se va desvaneciendo. Marcas históricas europeas sobreviven gracias a esta unión, mientras que nuevas marcas chinas conquistan nuestro mercado adoptando un alma europea. Esta fusión está acelerando la electrificación… si es bueno o malo, lo veremos con el tiempo.

Y que nadie se confunda: hoy no hablamos de copias, ni de imitaciones baratas. Hablamos de una fusión estratégica y, por lo general, inteligente que está redibujando por completo el mapa mundial del motor. Todavía hoy cuando escuchamos "coche chino", nos viene a la cabeza la imagen de un producto de calidad dudosa. Y esto está cambiando a toda velocidad. El desembarco de las marcas chinas en Europa no es una simple invasión comercial al uso: Va más allá, es me atrevo a decir, más peligrosa. Es un movimiento sutil y brillante, porque los gigantes industriales chinos han entendido que para conquistar el exigente mercado occidental no basta con ofrecer un precio bajo. Se necesita diseño, tecnología punta, una seguridad incuestionable y, todavía hoy, sigue ayudando mucho una marca de confianza, una tradición, una historia, un ADN. ¿Y dónde se encuentra todo eso en abundancia? Exacto, en Europa. Por otro lado, marcas europeas con décadas de historia, algunas de ellas en dificultades e incluso al borde de la desaparición, han encontrado en el capital chino el salvavidas que necesitaban. Pero no ha sido un simple rescate. Ha sido una inyección masiva de recursos con la idea de reinventarse y posicionarse como líderes en la nueva era eléctrica. Para hacerlo más fácil, vamos a dividir este fenómeno en tres grandes categorías: Primero, las joyas de la corona europeas que ahora tienen un pasaporte chino. Segundo, las nuevas marcas chinas que han nacido y crecido con un cerebro y un alma de diseño europeo. Y tercero, los matrimonios de conveniencia más recientes, donde dos gigantes se unen para crear una nueva generación de vehículos. Para mí no todo han sido aciertos… hay de todo. Nosotros te lo contamos y tu juzgas. ¡Vamos allá! Categoría 1: Legado europeo con corazón oriental. Aquí es, quizás, donde encontramos las historias más potentes. Lotus. De la ligereza al Hiper-SUV Eléctrico. MG. El Renacer del icono británico. Volvo y Polestar. Modelo de éxito. Categoría 2: Marcas chinas con cerebro europeo. BYD. El gigante que fichó a las estrellas. Lynk & Co. El “Netflix” del automóvil. Categoría 3: Matrimonios de Conveniencia… Smart. Revolución Germano-China. Stellantis y Leapmotor. Un “balón de oxígeno”. ¿Vendrás más? Volvo, MG, Lotus... la lista crece. Y seguirá creciendo. Como veis, el panorama del automóvil ha cambiado para siempre. Ya no se trata de dónde se ensambla la última tuerca, sino de dónde provienen el capital, la tecnología, el diseño y la estrategia. Esta fusión "euro-china" está acelerando la transición eléctrica y aumentando la competencia, lo cual es bueno para nosotros. Surgen muchas preguntas: ¿Es menos europeo un Volvo por tener un dueño chino que ha potenciado su herencia? ¿Es menos chino un BYD por haber sido diseñado por un alemán? Las etiquetas son cada vez más difusas, los estereotipos desaparecen. Hay dos cosas que importan. Una, el producto final. Y muchos de estos coches "euro-chinos" son productos y muy competitivos. Y dos, ¿Dónde van a parar los beneficios? Este asunto, a futuro, es también muy importante… la preponderancia de las marcas europeas y japonesas, está llamada a desaparecer. Conclusión. El concepto de coche "nacional" se va desvaneciendo. Marcas históricas europeas sobreviven gracias a esta unión, mientras que nuevas marcas chinas conquistan nuestro mercado adoptando un alma europea. Esta fusión está acelerando la electrificación… si es bueno o malo, lo veremos con el tiempo.

Paul Herrold of the Sons of Speed sits in for Jill this week. The hosts open the show by discussing the reborn Chevrolet Bolt small electric crossover.

Ever wonder what it's like to buy a dream car new—and still have it decades later? In this episode, Greg Stanley sits down with two remarkable enthusiasts who did just that. First up is Roger Parlett, original owner of a 1968 Ford Mustang Fastback 428 Cobra Jet. As one of the Ford engineers who helped bring the 428 CJ to life, Roger offers a firsthand look at how this legendary muscle car came to be—and what it was like to drive one home from the factory. Then, Greg talks with John Janisch, who purchased his 2004 Lotus Esprit V8 Final Edition brand-new—the very end of Lotus' exotic, analog era. John shares what it's been like to live with and preserve one of the final examples of a truly driver-focused supercar. It's a rare glimpse into automotive history told by the people who were there from day one—still turning the keys to their own legends. #TheCollectorCarPodcast #GregStanley #RMSothebys #FordMustang #Mustang428CJ #CobraJet #LotusEsprit #LotusEspritV8 #LotusFinalEdition #OriginalOwner #CollectorCars #CarPodcast #AutomotiveHistory #MuscleCar #ClassicCar #Supercar #CarStories #CarCulture #FordPerformance #LotusCars #VintageCars #EnthusiastOwned Do you need help buying or selling your collector car?  Contact Greg directly at Greg@TheCollectorCarPodcast.com or GStanley@RMSothebys.com.

At the height of the silent movie era, young Australian star Lotus Thompson set her sights on Hollywood. But she soon faced a problem: her legs were so beautiful that producers couldn't see past her perfect pins to recognise her as a true acting talent. So Lotus found a horrifying solution – literally, in a bottle of corrosive acid. Had she been driven to this self-destructive act by a cruel industry? Or was Lotus simply a shrewd operator trying to hoax her way to Hollywood fame and fortune?It's easy to get a free trial that will give you access to ad-free, early and bonus episodes.

This episode delves into books 6-10 of The Odyssey. Odysseus has finally found a helping hand on his journey home, but before he can go, he must tell the story of where he came from. Lotus eaters, cannibals, cyclops, and the seductively terrifying Circe highlight this portion of the story. The "Homeric Question" is also examined. Who was the author of The Odyssey and how was the story originally told? Themes of grief, memory, forgetting, guest rite, greek colonization, marital fidelty, and more are discussed. Homer's The Odyssey is one of the oldest and most enduring stories in all of civilization. Set in the aftermath of the legendary Trojan War, Odysseus, one of it's great heroes, has been lost at sea for decades. As he struggles to return home, the epic poem asks us important questions about history, memory, choice, kindness, leadership, violence, and much more. Even thousands of years later, The Odyssey still matters.   If you're reading along, the next podcast will cover books 11-16! -Consider Supporting the Podcast!- Leave a rating or review on apple podcasts or spotify!

In Episode 165 of the Fit Mother Project podcast, Dr. Anthony Balduzzi sits down with Katie Hess, founder of LOTUSWEI, to explore the gentle but powerful world of flower essences. They open with a clear distinction between flower essences and more familiar plant modalities like herbs and essential oils, then lay out how essences are made and why they're aimed at shifting the emotional patterns that quietly drive our habits, stress, and sleep.Dr. Balduzzi and Katie dive into practical use cases for women over 40—calming an overactive mind at night, softening stress responses, easing body-image spirals, and reopening a guarded heart. Katie shares real-world stories from her practice, along with simple “start today” rituals using drops in water or misting, and the intuitive method of selecting a flower you're naturally drawn to.The conversation expands into the science-adjacent terrain, touching on forest bathing research and why even short immersions in nature can imprint the nervous system for days. Katie explains how dilution in essence-making is designed to work at the “pattern level,” complementing (not replacing) conventional care and fitting seamlessly alongside nutrition, exercise, and mindset work.They wrap with a beginner's roadmap: pick one essence, build a tiny daily ritual around it, and notice shifts in mood, posture, and self-talk over a few weeks. If you've been curious about non-pharmaceutical, nature-based support for stress and sleep—or you simply want a gentler way to change stubborn habits—this conversation offers an accessible place to start.Key Takeaways:Flower essences = the flower's energetic imprint in water; different from herbs/oilsWork on emotional/energetic patterns that drive habits and health choicesPassionflower essence helps quiet “monkey mind” and support sleepPeony softens scarcity/lack; attracts possibility and easeDaisy dissolves rigidity/over-seriousness; restores lightness and joyRose opens the heart; supports healing from heartbreak/guardednessJasmine supports self-acceptance and radiance (helpful for body-image ruts)Lotus amplifies all essences; accelerates insight and growthForest bathing can lower cortisol and boost immunity with lasting effectsMaking essences: solar/lunar infusion → preserved “mother” → serial dilutionsDilution increases depth of action (pattern-level), akin to homeopathic theoryHow to use: 5 drops, 5x/day in mouth or water; mists and anointing oils also workUse intuition: we're drawn to the flowers we most need right nowEssences complement (not replace) medical care; think “emotional root support”Start simple: take the quiz, choose one blend, and build a daily ritualWhere to Discover More with Katie Hess:Website: http://lotuswei.com/fitfamilyUse discount code FITFAMILY at checkout and receive 10% off your order (one per customer).Take the Master Flower Quiz to discover your most resonant flower essence.

Salve! This is a trailer for our bonus episode exclusive for ⁠paid subscribers⁠!Every episode is a different song. This is the song today:"Lotus 72D" by Zé RobertoThe Lotus 72D was the Formula 1 World Championship-winning car driven by Emerson Fittipaldi in 1972. Inspired by watching the 1973 Brazilian Grand Prix in his hometown of São Paulo, an up-and-coming singer-songwriter penned a song about the iconic car. Released as a single by RCA Victor, the track failed to gain much attention at the time. However, a sped-up version of the original resurfaced online in the 2000s, sparking renewed interest. In this episode, we attempt to unravel the mystery behind Zé Roberto and his recording of "Lotus 72D."

¿Qué hace a un coche realmente rápido? Para muchos un motor muy potente. Pero no para Colin Chapman, el legendario fundador de Lotus, autor de la famosa frase: “Prefiero un kilo menos que un caballo más”. Su filosofía era radical y simple: eliminar todo lo innecesario para lograr la máxima ligereza y agilidad. Una obsesión que le valió grandes éxitos, pero que también generó controversia y críticas por la seguridad de sus coches. De hecho, su enfoque radical llevó a que sus coches de F1 fueran considerados frágiles y peligrosos, una realidad que se hizo tristemente evidente con la muerte del campeón Jochen Rindt en 1970 a bordo de un Lotus 72. Sus creaciones con "efecto suelo" como el Lotus 78 y 79, si bien eran muy eficaces hubo quienes los consideraron peligroso, pues podían volverse inestables de manera súbita. Colin Chapman tenía verdadera obsesión por el peso. Su famosa frase, que parece evidente, ya verás requiere explicación. Por un lado, la equivalencia de 1 kilo y un CV es figurada… deben ser más kilos para compensar. 1. Lotus Mark VI (1952). Empezamos por el principio, o casi. El Lotus Mark VI no fue el primer coche que Chapman construyó, pero sí el primero que se vendió en serie. Fue el coche que convirtió su visión de “simplificar y añadir ligereza” en un producto comercial. 2. Lotus Seven (1957). Si hay un coche que representa mejor que ninguno la esencia de Lotus, es el Seven. Nacido para reemplazar al Mark VI, este roadster realmente minimalista es todo un Lotus por excelencia. Sin lujos y sin concesiones a la comodidad. El Seven también se vendió en kit de nuevo y era poco más que un esqueleto con motor y cuatro ruedas. Su chasis de acero tubular y su carrocería de aluminio casi inexistente lo hacían increíblemente ligero. 3. Lotus Elite Type 14 (1958). Mientras el Seven era la simplicidad en su máxima expresión, el Elite fue la elegancia y la innovación. Este coupé de dos plazas fue el primer coche de producción en serie del mundo con una carrocería monocasco de fibra de vidrio. Esta técnica era revolucionaria en la época, ya que permitía una estructura muy ligera y rígida. La carrocería pesaba tan solo 54 kg. El Elite no solo era innovador, era bello. Su diseño aerodinámico, obra de Peter Kirwan-Taylor, es uno de los más icónicos de la historia de Lotus. 4. Lotus Elan (1962). El Elan fue la respuesta de Lotus a la necesidad de un coche deportivo de carretera algo, aunque fuese un poco, más que el Elite. Buscaban en éxito en las ventas y lo consiguieron con creces. El Elan es considerado por muchos como uno de los roadsters más importantes de la historia. Fue el primer Lotus de carretera con un chasis de acero con forma de tubo central, una técnica que se usaría en modelos posteriores. 5. Lotus 25 (1962). El primer F1 de esta lista, porque la filosofía de Chapman no se limitaba a los coches de calle, fue la base de su éxito en la Fórmula 1. Y el 25 es el ejemplo perfecto. Fue el primer monoplaza de Fórmula 1 en utilizar un chasis monocasco de aluminio. Esta innovación estructural, que ahora usan todos, aunque con carbono y no aluminio, revolucionó el diseño de los coches de carreras. 6. Lotus 72 (1970). Uno de mis Lotus favoritos, el 72 es uno de los monoplazas más exitosos y significativos de la historia de la Fórmula 1. Su diseño innovador fue obra de Colin Chapman y Maurice Philippe. Introdujo varias innovaciones clave, ganando los campeonatos de 1970, 1972 y 1973 con Jochen Rindt y Emerson Fittipaldi. Es un coche que definió una era. 7. Lotus Esprit (1976). Volvemos a los coches de calle con el Esprit marcó un cambio de rumbo para Lotus. Y con un diseño nada menos que de otro genio: Giorgetto Giugiaro. Este coupé de motor central fue un superdeportivo en toda regla. Su diseño angular, en forma de cuña, lo convirtió en una estrella del cine. Debutó en la película de James Bond "La espía que me amó" donde se convertía en un submarino. 8. Lotus 78 (1977). El coche que muchos especialistas consideran el F1 más influyente de la historia… me sumo a esa idea. El Lotus 78 popularizó la aerodinámica de efecto suelo en la Fórmula 1. 9. Lotus 88 (1981). Para mí un coche “maltratado” por la FIA. Y es que este excepcional y original Lotus 88 nunca llegó a competir, pero para mí es un ejemplo de la genialidad de Colin Chapman. Con la prohibición de la aerodinámica de efecto suelo con faldones, Chapman buscó una solución. El 88 tenía dos chasis: uno interno, donde iba el motor y la cabina, y otro externo, que era la carrocería aerodinámica. 10. Lotus Excel (1982). Un gran olvidado y que a mí, particularmente, me encanta. El Lotus Excel fue el último coche de producción de Colin Chapman antes de su muerte. Es un desarrollo del Eclat, pero con una mejora radical.

¿Mercedes usando motores BMW? ¡Sacrilegio!, ¡Traición! Pero… ¿y si os dijera que esta "traición" no es la primera vez que la hace Mercedes? ¿Y si os dijera que es una de las prácticas más antiguas en el mundo del motor? Como de costumbre, mi objetivo es sorprenderos. Hoy en Garaje Hermético vamos a descubrir alianzas impensables y coches legendarios o casi cuyo “corazón” es prestado… La noticia ha corrido como la pólvora: Mercedes-Benz podría empezar a usar motores de cuatro cilindros de BMW a partir de 2027. Antes de que los más puristas os se vayáis a las puertas de Stuttgart a manifestaros, ,hay que entender el por qué. Desarrollar un motor desde cero es una de las inversiones más costosas a las que se enfrenta un fabricante. Hablamos de cientos, a veces miles de millones de euros en investigación, desarrollo, pruebas, utillaje para las fábricas y, sobre todo, en superar las cada vez más estrictas normativas anticontaminación. En un mundo que supuestamente va hacia lo eléctrico, invertir una fortuna en un nuevo motor de combustión que tiene fecha de caducidad es una apuesta muy arriesgada. Por eso, las sinergias, las colaboraciones y las alianzas estratégicas están a la orden del día. A veces es por pura supervivencia, otras por acceder a una tecnología que no se posee, y en ocasiones, simplemente, porque otra marca ya ha fabricado el motor perfecto que necesitas. Mercedes-BMW (2027). El rumor que ha desatado este guion apunta a un futuro muy cercano. A partir de 2027, se espera que Mercedes utilice motores de cuatro cilindros de origen BMW. Mercedes-Renault (2012). Esta colaboración es el ejemplo perfecto de la estrategia moderna. Con la llegada de la tercera generación del Clase A (W176), Mercedes necesitaba un motor diésel pequeño y muy eficiente. Mitsubishi Lancer TDi (2007). Si te hablo de Lancer enseguida tu mente se va a los Rallyes… pero Mitsubishi necesitaba un motor diésel de 2 litros para ser competitiva en Europa con su nueva generación del Lancer. Y en lugar de desarrollar uno propio, recurrió al proveedor por excelencia de la época: Volkswagen. Chrysler Sebring-VW (2007). A mediados de los 2000, el mercado europeo demandaba berlinas diésel. Chrysler, que por entonces formaba parte de DaimlerChrysler, no tenía un motor de gasóleo competitivo de 2 litros. La solución fue fácil y directa: comprarle a Volkswagen su archiconocido motor 2.0 TDi de 140 CV. Lotus-Toyota (2004). Lotus es la quintaesencia del chasis perfecto y la ligereza, pero la fiabilidad no siempre fue su fuerte y nunca fabricó motores. Con la llegada del Elise 111R, la marca británica tomó una de sus mejores decisiones: usar el motor 2ZZ-GE de Toyota. Lamborghini Gallardo-Audi (2003). Un Audi R8 vestido de gala. Aquí entramos en sinergias de grupo, pero no deja de ser chocante para los más puristas. Koenigsegg CC8S-Ford (2002). La exclusiva marca sueca recurrió a un V8 muy "plebeyo" de Ford. Mercedes Vito VR6 (1996). Esta es una de esas colaboraciones que rompen todos los esquemas. A mediados de los 90, Mercedes necesitaba un motor de gasolina potente y refinado para el tope de gama de su nueva furgoneta, la Vito 280 de la serie W638. Aston Martin DB7 “by Jaguar” (1994). El Aston Martin DB7 salvó a la marca de la quiebra en los 90. Era precioso, elegante... y un puzle de piezas de otras marcas. Su plataforma derivaba del Jaguar XJS y su motor de seis cilindros en línea era una evolución de un bloque de Jaguar, convenientemente sobrealimentado por un compresor. McLaren-BMW F1 (1992). Para muchos, el mejor superdeportivo de todos los tiempos. Pero Gordon Murray no tenía motor. Llamó a la puerta de Honda y no le “abrieron”. ¿La solución? Acudió a BMW M y el resultado fue el legendario S70/2, un V12 de 6.1 litros y 627 CV que es una obra de arte de la ingeniería. Mercedes 500 E "Made by Porsche" (1990). E incluido este coche para mostraros que los chicos de Mercedes son muy “promiscuos”. A principios de los 90, Mercedes quería competir con el BMW M5. Tenían el motor V8 perfecto, pero no cabía en la línea de montaje de su berlina, el W124. ¿A quién le pides ayuda cuando tienes un problema de ingeniería en Stuttgart? ¡Pues a tu vecino, Porsche!

Interview with Greg Bittar, Managing Director of Lotus ResourcesOur previous interview:Recording date: 10th September 2025Lotus Resources presents a compelling uranium investment opportunity as one of the few companies to successfully restart production in a supply-constrained market. The company has demonstrated operational excellence by bringing the Kayelekera mine in Malawi back online after a decade-long closure, targeting steady-state production of 2.4 million pounds annually by 2026.The investment thesis centers on strategic market positioning during a critical industry inflection point. As Managing Director Greg Bittar emphasized, "This is no longer a demand story. This is a supply story." Utilities globally face acute supply shortages while rebuilding inventories and securing long-term contracts, creating favorable conditions for new producers with operational capability.Lotus Resources has structured its production profile to maximize upside exposure while maintaining revenue stability. With 65% of production uncontracted, the company provides substantial leverage to uranium price appreciation, while 35% contracted volumes through 2029 ensure cash flow certainty. This balanced approach allows management to implement a patient inventory strategy, building working capital to capture anticipated price increases rather than immediately monetizing output at current market levels.The company's operational advantages distinguish it from competitors facing technical challenges. Hard rock mining operations at Kayelekera utilize proven metallurgy and established processing parameters, reducing technical risk compared to in-situ recovery methods experiencing industry-wide difficulties. The operation previously produced successfully until 2014, providing management with operational knowledge and historical performance data to optimize the restart process.Financial discipline characterizes the company's approach to capital allocation. The $50 million restart investment minimized dilution while maintaining operational flexibility through $40 million in deferred capital expenditures. These strategic deferrals, including power grid connection and acid plant reconstruction, create a clear pathway to $5-6 per pound cost reduction once commissioned, enhancing operational competitiveness and margin expansion.The development pipeline adds significant value through the Letlhakane project in Botswana, representing 115 million pounds of uranium resources grading 360-365 ppm. This larger-scale, longer-life asset can be funded through Kayelekera cash flows, providing growth optionality without additional dilution. The strategic timing aligns with anticipated supply shortfalls in the late 2020s and early 2030s, positioning the asset for optimal market entry.Geographic positioning in stable African jurisdictions provides operational and political advantages. Strong government support, demonstrated through presidential participation in reopening ceremonies, combined with 95% local employment and community engagement initiatives, creates sustainable operational frameworks. Established supply chains and regulatory environments in both Malawi and Botswana reduce execution risk compared to less developed mining jurisdictions.The macro environment strongly supports uranium producers with operational capability and strategic positioning. Chinese demand acceleration, Western utilities' need to replace Russian supply sources, and limited new mine development have created unprecedented supply constraints. Lotus Resources exemplifies the opportunity to capitalize on this transformation through immediate production capability, substantial price exposure, and development optionality.Risk considerations include inherent commodity price volatility, operational challenges associated with mining operations, and geopolitical factors affecting African mining jurisdictions. However, the company's proven operational capability, strategic market positioning, and financial flexibility create a compelling framework for uranium sector exposure during this critical market transformation.View Lotus Resources' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/lotus-resources-limitedSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

A French forbidden fruit enters the studio on this week's episode - none other than the Alpine A110. But hang on...how did this non-25-year-old import end up on US soil? And WHY is it here? === The Carmudgeon Show Sponsor, Vredestein Tires: https://www.vredestein.com/ === Manufactures keep telling us that lightweight sports cars for the masses aren't possible to produce anymore due to rising safety standards. And yet, here we have the Alpine A110 - an incredible mid-engined, sub-2500-pound sports car you can buy brand new that can do far more than just be cute and French. In Jason and Derek's rigorous testing, they find it's compact, athletic, fast, comfortable, and premium-feeling - disappointing, it certainly is not. Derived from the original A110 which dominated various stages of motorsport throughout the 1960s and 70s, it's no surprise that Renault-Alpine knew where to reference their framework when developing this car for the European market. Jason and Derek discuss throughout the episode how the little Alpine compares to the likes of the Porsche 718 Cayman range, the Lotus Emira & Lotus Evora, the Alfa Romeo 4C, and even the McLaren 570S. It's a shame Stellantis still hasn't found a way to bring this wonderful machine on sale stateside after announcing an estimated 2027 arrival via the Nissan USA dealer network - but given current complications with tariffs, we're not all that surprised. And before you ask - yes, it's the same one you saw buzzing around Monterey Car Week and featured on The Smoking Tire w/ Matt Farah and Zack Klapman. The man who brought it here is our hero for a variety of different reasons - more on that during this episode of The Carmudgeon Show. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
