This week, we're honoured to welcome Inverness, Cape Breton's beloved literary hero, Frank MacDonald — an author whose work captures the rhythm, humour, and humanity of small-town life. Frank shares stories from his adventurous travels and humble beginnings growing up in a coal mining community, and how he's spent a lifetime borrowing, shaping, and preserving the tales of his neighbours through his writing. We talk about the enduring impact of his late wife Virginia, his companion and creative collaborator for 38 years, whose love and spirit continue to inspire his words. From his award-winning novels A Forest for Calum and A Possible Madness to his iconic satirical columns in the Inverness Oran, Frank's storytelling legacy is woven into the cultural fabric of Cape Breton. This episode also celebrates a major milestone — the 20th anniversary of A Forest for Calum — marked by a special event hosted by the Inverness County Centre for the Arts.

This episode of Mining Stock Daily features Brandon Macdonald, the newly appointed Executive Chairman of the "almost forgotten" Tinka Resources. Macdonald details the recently closed, oversubscribed $14 million financing deal which served to recapitalize and reinvigorate Tinka following challenges in the capital markets. The discussion outlines a new strategic direction for the company's Ayawilca project in Peru, emphasizing the need to focus on high-grade "meaningful tons" rather than just increasing overall tonnage, and rethinking the approach away from a maximalist greenfield build. While the flagship Ayawilca project requires substantial desktop work before drilling commences in mid-next year, the immediate work plan focuses on commencing drilling soon at the secondary copper-gold project, Silvia

RUNDOWN Are Seattle sports are even fun anymore? Six hours “chewing my fingernails and losing hair.” Mitch and Scott argue about what “fun” in fandom really means, roast Matt Brash for his walk-filled chaos, and marvel at the weirdness of Seattle beating Tarik Skubal yet again. Mitch welcomes Brady Farkas (Refuse to Lose Podcast) and Joe Doyle (Over-Slot / Future Stars Series) for a fiery Mariners No-Table as Seattle heads to Detroit tied 1–1. They rave over Jorge Polanco's two-homer night off Cy Young favorite Tarik Skubal and the team's resilience, then dissect Dan Wilson's bullpen management in Game 1, Bryce Miller's usage, and the decision to start George Kirby. The group debates Matt Brash's shaky late-inning trust, Julio Rodriguez's base-running and clutch turnaround, and whether the Tigers or Mariners now hold the upper hand as the ALDS resumes. Mitch welcomes Brady Henderson (ESPN Seahawks Insider) and Jacson Bevens (Cigar Thoughts) for a heated Seahawks No-Table after Seattle's gut-wrenching 38–35 loss to Tampa Bay. The trio debates how Mike Macdonald's defense—ranked among the NFL's best through two weeks—got completely schemed apart by Baker Mayfield. Mitch rips the lack of pressure from Byron Murphy and Leonard Williams, the blown coverage across the secondary, and the failure to get a stop with the game on the line. All agree: Sam Darnold looked spectacular, throwing four touchdowns and confirming his franchise-QB credentials even in defeat. CBS analyst Rick Neuheisel joins Mitch after an emotional weekend that saw his son Jerry Neuheisel call plays for UCLA in the upset win over Penn State. Rick describes watching from the CBS studio as his phone exploded with messages, reliving the moment as both a broadcaster and a dad. He shares the behind-the-scenes timeline of Jerry being handed play-calling duties, his pride in how the Bruins responded, and the joy of seeing his family's work pay off. From there, the conversation turns to the broader college-football landscape — Penn State and Texas now facing uphill climbs to the playoff, Notre Dame's renewed path, the Huskies' comeback win in Maryland, Florida's bounce-back under Billy Napier, and previewing the week ahead with Oregon–Indiana on CBS.

Ask Me How I Know: Multifamily Investor Stories of Struggle to Success
Burnout recovery isn't about pushing harder. Discover how gentleness restores leadership rhythm, builds trust, and helps high-capacity humans lead from presence, not pressure.Burnout recovery often gets framed as rest, vacations, or temporary relief. But for high-capacity humans, the real restoration comes from a deeper source: gentleness.In this episode of The Recalibration, Julie Holly unpacks why gentleness is not laziness, but true leadership strength. Drawing from the life and influence of 19th-century poet-preacher George MacDonald, Julie explores how gentleness became a force that reshaped culture, awakened imagination, and restored weary souls. MacDonald's leadership reminds us: real authority flows from embodying peace, not pressing harder.You'll also see how burnout, decision fatigue, and role confusion are often symptoms of identity drift — when your nervous system stays braced and you lead from performance instead of presence. This is where Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR) makes the difference. ILR isn't another mindset tactic or productivity hack. It's the root-level shift that rewrites your story so every decision, boundary, and leadership rhythm flows from alignment with who you truly are.Today's conversation gets practical too. You'll learn how to spot the difference between leading from bracing and leading from gentleness — and why this shift restores both you and those you influence.Micro Recalibration: Schedule 3 ninety-second resets today. Breathe. Drop your shoulders. Soften your jaw. Release the outcome.For leaders: bring this into your team or family. Try starting a meeting or mealtime with one slow breath together. You'll be amazed at how the atmosphere shifts.Because gentleness isn't weakness. It's leadership that heals instead of drains.If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

Dr. Maryellen MacDonald is the Donald P. Hayes Professor Emerita of Psychology and Language Sciences at the University of Wisconsin–Madison and is a renowned cognitive scientist. Her work in psycholinguistics explores how we comprehend, produce, and learn language—one of the most remarkable aspects of being human. Dr. MacDonald's research has examined language across the entire lifespan, from children and young adults to older adults and individuals living with Alzheimer's disease. In her book, “More than Words”, she explores the science around how and why we talk, and how this impacts our lives. In this episode, host Shay Beider and Dr. Maryellen MacDonald discuss the surprising power of talking—not just with others, but to ourselves. Dr. MacDonald explains that turning our internal state into words is a complex brain process that sharpens attention, calms the limbic system, and helps us follow through on goals. Dr. MacDonald shares that naming our thoughts and emotions can bring clarity, reduce stress, and tune the brain for better focus. She highlights how listening is easier than talking, a “desirable difficulty,” and stresses the importance of mastering the art of listening and talking. From children developing language and school readiness through conversation, to older adults keeping their brains engaged, talking shapes cognition across the lifespan. This episode encourages us to embrace conversation, self-talk, and journaling as tools to better understand ourselves and connect with others.

At the end of August, archaeologists announced extraordinary new finds from the sunken city of Canopus, located off the coast of Alexandria, Egypt. For the first time in 25 years, artifacts were raised from the seabed, including a sphinx inscribed with Ramses II's name, statues from the Ptolemaic and Roman eras, and shipwreck remains.In this episode, we'll explore both these latest underwater discoveries and geological surveys that are helping researchers understand what caused Canopus to sink, because understanding how people of the past adapted to disasters could help us find solutions for today's climate-threatened coastal cities.Listen now to learn about the artifacts, myths, and history of Canopus.TranscriptsFor transcripts of this episode head over to: https://archpodnet.com/tpm/22Links and ReferencesSee photos related to episode topics on InstagramLoving the macabre lore?

The Sandman is back. Adam Sandler returns to the links with Happy Gilmore 2 (2025) which does a lot to remind us all of the original Happy Gilmore (1996), perhaps too much.

In this essential episode, Drew and Josh are joined by Dr. Birthe Macdonald, a psychologist and neuroscience researcher who's become a vital voice in combating mental health misinformation on social media. The conversation tackles the overwhelming sea of questionable advice that anxious people encounter online, from vagus nerve stimulation devices to "nervous system regulation" quick fixes.Dr. Macdonald shares her journey from neuroscience researcher to science communicator, sparked by sponsored ads for electrical vagus nerve stimulators that made bold claims without solid evidence. The trio explores why these pseudoscientific approaches are particularly appealing to people struggling with anxiety disorders – and why they can actually be harmful.Key topics include:The dangerous appeal of "one thing" solutions that promise instant reliefWhy sponsored vagus nerve stimulation devices and similar products exploit vulnerable peopleHow social media algorithms amplify misinformation while evidence-based content gets overlookedRed flags to watch for when consuming mental health content onlineThe difference between what we know about how the brain works versus being able to "work" the brain directlyWhy ChatGPT and AI can become problematic reassurance-seeking tools for people with anxietyHow to become a more critical consumer of pop psychology contentThe conversation doesn't dismiss that some techniques may provide temporary relief, but emphasizes understanding why they work (often through distraction rather than magical nervous system manipulation) and recognizing when they become compulsive behaviors that maintain anxiety in the long run.This episode serves as both a reality check and a guide for navigating the complex landscape of mental health information online, helping listeners distinguish between evidence-based approaches and appealing but potentially harmful quick fixes.Find Birthe Online:https://www.instagram.com/dr.birthe.macdonald/https://www.birthemacdonald.comhttps://substack.com/@drbirthemacdonald---Disordered Roundtables are here!

We loved chatting to Stu....and you're going to love learning from this GOLD taken from our recent episode: What happens when a founder steps back from doing everything and instead builds a team that can take the business further than they ever could alone?In this 5-minute clip, Stu Macdonald, founder of ManiLife Peanut Butter, shares why building their own factory was a turning point, not just for product quality and innovation, but for company culture.Stu opens up about:- Why making their own product was essential for both quality and commercial success.- The power of trusting great people to lead where he couldn't.- The difference between working “insanely hard” versus building a business that hums.- His raw experience with burnout and the shift that saved both him and the company.This is a powerful reminder that YOU, the FOUNDERS, perhaps DON'T don't need to do it all...or at least that you can CHOOSE to work towards a time when you're NOT doing it all.

Bare Female Shoulders, Oh My! Flapping through the 1920s in Bootie and Bossy's Episode 49!Why, why, why do men care so much about what women wear? Oh right, because they want to control women, but Irene Castle did not let the condemnation of Pope Pius and other religious leaders stop her from bobbing her hair and baring her shoulders. As a result, Castle was blamed for everything from broken engagements to wrecked homes, according to Anne Macdonald in No Idle Hands: The Social History of American Knitting. But this was the roaring 20s, the era of the Flappers, when women emerged from World War I empowered by new economic opportunity, and they said hello to voting and goodbye to old fashion, especially the corset. Now women were finally free to breath and move, or in Irene Castle's case, dance. Despite the liberation, Flapper fashion had some downsides--like constant dieting to get the boyish figure that looked good in the new, clingy tube knits. With rising hemlines and plunging necklines, it also ushered in the practice of women shaving their armpits and legs. That practice is still with us. Thanks.Everyone was so tired of knitting socks for the war, many turned to more decorative needlework like embroidery, but wool companies fought hard to keep knitting on the national radar by sponsoring contests with top prizes running as high as $2000. And knitting was still known for calming the nerves, as First Lady Grace Coolidge explained while sailing on the Presidential yacht, the Mayflower:"Many a time when I have to hold myself firmly, I have taken up my needle. It might be a sewing needle, knitting needles, or a crochet hook—whatever its form or purposes, it often proved to be the needle of the compass, keeping me to the course."Grace Coolidge, quoted in Macdonald, No Idle Hands, p. 243.It's not only the knitting that centers us though—the wearing of a beautiful, hand-knit garment brings a special joy, as Bossy recently discovered when wearing the Goldwing sweater that Bootie gifted her after three months of repeated badgering. It was worth it—this is just the best thing, and look, no bare shoulders! Certain popes might even approve--oh wait, we don't care.So join us for some good flapping about knitting then and now, and a great recipe for Vietnamese Chicken, compliments of Michele Lee Bernstein!

Worrying is never much fun, but it's especially not fun in the leadup to a performance or audition. And even more so when we get stuck in a “worry loop” and can't seem to get ourselves out of it.It's a little like the time my family visited Paris when I was a kid, and my dad got stuck in the roundabout around the Arc de Triomphe. I don't know how long we drove around and around, but I do know that I fell asleep at some point, and when I woke up, we were still looping around.

Read a more in-depth article about Killer Kids at https://weirddarkness.com/youngest-murderers-criminal-history/From an 11-year-old who killed for 'fun' to teens who murdered their own families, these 15 shocking cases of killer kids reveal the disturbing truth about whether we can predict which children will become murderers.Join the DARKNESS SYNDICATE: https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateTake the WEIRD DARKNESS LISTENER SURVEY and help mold the future of the podcast: https://weirddarkness.com/surveyIN THIS EPISODE: As a listener of true crime podcasts, you likely are more than familiar with names like H.H. Holmes, Richard Ramirez, and Gary Ridgeway. But what happens when the serial killer hasn't even reached adolescence? We'll look at some chilling murders that were carried out by children, which will change the way you look at youthful adolescents from now on. (Killer Kids) *** Are there traits you can look for in a child that might indicate if they will become a killer later in life? We'll look at three traits believed to be indicators. (Predicting a Killer) *** You can teach a dog to roll over and fetch. You can teach a cat to use the toilet. Lions and tigers have been trained to jump through hoops of fire to thrill spectators at circuses worldwide. And even a gorilla has been taught some basic sign language. But would you believe there was once a horse that could do arithmetic? (The Horse Who Could Do Math) *** William Stead was a newspaper editor and journalist in the 1890s. His beat wasn't the fashion scene or stock market, nor was it the arts district or even politics. He covered the paranormal. And it wasn't hard to come up with stories, because all he had to do was to call up someone from the underworld for an exclusive interview. (Words From Beyond The Grave) *** If you move into an old house, it always feels awkward at first. After a while though, it begins to feel like home. For some people, if the house is a bit older, perhaps that odd feeling of being watched never really goes away. But if your house was built 270 years ago, you probably should just assume you've got a spook or two already residing there before you sign the mortgage.
