We have seen an extraordinary change in attitudes towards gay and lesbian people over the last half century in the West. Within living memory, homosexuality was criminalised. Now, same-sex couples can get married and share custody of children. This is nothing short of a moral revolution. Plenty of progressives think, not only that this change was inevitable, but also that further liberalisation is inevitable. My guests today are not so sure. They note that, for the first time in a long time, younger people on average are less accepting of homosexuality than are slightly older people. Perhaps this is a result of immigration patterns. Perhaps it's a result of strategic errors made by activists. I'm joined by three people who all agree that something has gone wrong, although they disagree – subtly – on exactly how and why. Ronan McCrea is professor of constitutional and European law at University College London and the author of 'The End of the Gay Rights Revolution: How Hubris and Overreach Threaten Gay Freedom.' Matthew Vines the the Founder and Executive Director of The Reformation Project and the author of 'God and the Gay Christian: The Biblical Case in Support of Same-Sex Relationships.'And Julie Bindel is a journalist, broadcaster, author, and the co-founder and co-director of The Lesbian Project.All of these guests share a concern that the wins of the gay rights movement are very fragile. There is a very real possibility that we will look back on the early twenty-first century as an historical blip – a brief moment of victory that was squandered. We ask how that fate might be avoided.

Interview with Christopher Taylor, Chairman, and Claudia Tornquist, President & CEO of Kodiak Copper Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/kodiak-copper-tsxvkdk-q4-2025-resource-estimate-will-mark-critical-inflection-point-7948Recording date: 10th December 2025Kodiak Copper has announced its maiden resource estimate for the MPD project in British Columbia, marking a significant milestone after six years of exploration. The resource comprises 440 million tons at 0.39% copper equivalent (indicated) and 0.32% (inferred), containing 2.4 billion pounds of copper and 1.7 million ounces of gold across seven discrete deposits.The company achieved remarkable exploration efficiency, discovering nearly 2 million ounces of gold with only 90,000 meters of drilling—a superior discovery rate compared to peer projects. Chairman Chris Taylor noted this efficiency exceeded even his previous work at Great Bear Resources, which sold for C$1.8 billion.Metallurgical results are encouraging, showing 80% copper recovery and 60% gold recovery with no deleterious elements. The company is conducting optimization work to potentially improve gold recovery rates, which could significantly enhance project economics given current gold prices substantially above the $4,000 per ounce assumption used in resource calculations.All seven deposits remain open for expansion, with drilling already indicating significant growth opportunities. The company has identified approximately 20 additional exploration targets across the property, including areas with surface samples showing 4-5% copper grades—higher than any current resource deposit yet never drill-tested.Management is prioritizing resource expansion over immediate economic studies, believing this approach maximizes shareholder value by demonstrating the district's full scale potential. President Claudia Tornquist emphasized that "size is what will make this project attractive." The company maintains $7-8 million cash to fund a 2026-2027 drilling program, with a resource update expected in approximately one year.The project benefits from favorable market dynamics, with copper and gold at or near all-time highs and limited pipeline of development projects to address structural supply deficits. Located in British Columbia's established mining jurisdiction, MPD is positioned as a potential future copper-gold producer in a supply-constrained market.View Kodiak Copper's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/kodiak-copper-corpSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
In this company update, Zach Flood, President and CEO of Kenorland Minerals (TSX-V:KLD | OTCQX:KLDCF), discusses the maiden resource at the Regnault gold deposit within the Frotet Project, Quebec. Zach recaps the path from a 2020 grassroots discovery to a 2.55 million ounce Inferred resource at 5.47 g/t gold. We dive into the valuation of Kenorland's unique 4% NSR royalty on the project, now 100% owned and operated by Sumitomo Metal Mining. Zach also outlines the expansion potential remaining at Regnault and provides an outlook for Kenorland's extensive 2026 exploration pipeline. Key Highlights: Regnault & Beyond Maiden Resource Milestone: The inaugural estimate outlines 14.5 million tonnes at 5.47 g/t Au for 2.55 Moz of gold. This was achieved in under five years with a discovery cost of roughly $20 per ounce. High-Value Royalty: Kenorland holds a 4% NSR royalty (with a 3.25% uncapped floor if buy-downs are exercised), considering the company's sub-$200M CAD market cap. Exploration Blue Sky: The system remains open in multiple directions, with 19 high-grade vein models currently excluded from the resource due to drill spacing. Sumitomo Operatorship: With Sumitomo now at the helm, baseline engineering is underway for a potential underground exploration decline to facilitate future bulk sampling. Aggressive 2026 Pipeline: Beyond Frotet, Kenorland is preparing for major partner-funded programs at South Uchi (with Auranova) and the Western Wabigoon and Flora projects (with Centerra Gold).

These steps are pretty confusing to me. Why would the people of Ythryn design a system like this? Or maybe it's the nature of the magic that requires it? I'm not certain, but it's too much. I'd have stopped once I found out there were eight steps to this thing. I guess that's why I'm not part of this group, right Max Hedman?Sound effects courtesy of Zapsplat.(Also, if you read this description leave a comment on the podcast saying “Wow, great job Luke!”)

This week on Heavy Metal Tones, we dive headfirst into one of Iron Maiden's most ambitious and visionary albums — Seventh Son of a Seventh Son. More than just a record, this was Maiden's full-blown prog masterclass, where galloping riffs met keyboards, concepts, and a darker, more mystical atmosphere.In this episode I break down the album track by track, exploring what makes Seventh Son such a pivotal moment in Maiden's career, from the seamless flow of the songs to the bold decision to fully embrace a concept album. We go behind the scenes as well, looking at the writing, production, and the risks the band took in pushing their sound into more progressive territory — and why those risks paid off in a huge way.Whether you've worn out your vinyl copy over the years or you're revisiting this classic with fresh ears, this is a deep exploration of an album that still stands tall as one of Iron Maiden's most creative and influential releases. Crank it up and join me as we uncover the magic, mythology, and metal that make Seventh Son of a Seventh Son truly timeless.

And if youget a Post-Purchase Survey, be sure to mention you heard about Cozy Earth at the Maiden Mother Matriarch podcast.I know that there are many people listening to this podcast right now who truly and sincerely want to get married, but can't find the right person. They've done the usual things – they've tried the apps, they've tried going to church, they've asked their friends to set them up. These strategies aren't futile – we all know plenty of people who met their spouses in this way – but they're not a guarantee, either. If we've learnt anything from the social experiment of the sexual revolution, it's that matchmaking is a difficult coordination problem. Earlier this year, I interviewed Christiana Maxion, a professional matchmaker who takes a very intuitive approach to her work. Today, I'm joined by someone who comes at the problem in a very different way. Geoffrey Miller is an evolutionary psychologist, an Associate Professor of Psychology at the University of New Mexico, and the author of books including 'The Mating Mind' (2001) and 'Mating Intelligence' (2008). He's also the Chief Science Advisor to a dating platform that claims to be able to match people based on A.I. analysis of reams of data. Things like IQ tests, personality tests, and demographic factors like age and socioeconomic status. Geoffrey believes that this non-intuitive approach to matchmaking is the way to bring happy couples together. Today we speak about the science, and also the issue of expectations. What is it reasonable to want in a spouse? How can single people set themselves up to win in the marriage market? And what role should we give to other people – parents or siblings, for instance – in the process of matchmaking? Discussed in the show:My interview with Christiana Maxion.Keeper matchmaking Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! Across America's haunted history, certain female figures appear again and again — not just as ghosts, but as cultural echoes. The Witch. The Bride. The Mother. The Jezebel. The Fallen Woman. The Maiden. The Spinster. More than archetypes, these specters act as a kind of psychic mirror, revealing the fears, desires, and expectations that have shaped women's lives for generations. In this episode, we explore how these recurring identities operate almost like a form of mediumship themselves, channeling deeper truths about the shifting social roles of women in the United States. Though their stories differ in class, background, circumstance, and era, each leaves behind a legacy powerful enough to outlive them — a presence that continues to fascinate, unsettle, and haunt. Their legends endure not only because they once lived, but because they still speak to the shadows society avoids. These spirits remind us that the past is never as silent as we pretend… and that some narratives refuse to stay buried. This is Part Two of our conversation. #TheGraveTalks #HauntedHistory #FemaleArchetypes #WomenInFolklore #AmericanGhostStories #ParanormalResearch #HauntedLegends #CulturalFolklore #SupernaturalHistory #GhostlyNarratives Love real ghost stories?

They discuss the flagship Frotet project, the South Uchi project, and the Western Wabagoon and Flora projects, highlighting the ongoing exploration efforts and the anticipation of assay results. Zach emphasizes the company's disciplined approach to project evaluation and the focus on early-stage exploration, expressing confidence in the potential for new discoveries.
Not these things again! Who designed these creatures?! Whoever did needs to be smote. I hope it was Auril, because she needs to be smote anyway.

No one is under any illusions about how tired mothers are. And fathers, too. Particularly during the early years of sleep deprivation. We're also often overwhelmed by responsibility and financial stress. None of this is in doubt. But does that mean that mothers are unhappy? It's a complicated question to answer. A lot of people assume – particularly, I suspect, people who don't have children themselves – that tiredness and busyness necessarily suggest that a woman's wellbeing is damaged by having children. And there are, of course, feminist ideas that fall out of this assumption. Primarily, the idea that marriage and motherhood are oppressive to women, and that these are burdens that women long to be relieved of. Today I'm joined by two academics who offer their expertise on the question of maternal happiness. Wendy Wang is the Director of Research at the Institute for Family Studies, and Jenet Erickson is a fellow at the same institute. She's also an associate professor at Brigham Young University. I met Wendy and Jenet at a conference organised by the Institute for Family Studies earlier this year at which they both presented their research on marriage, children, and – here's the really interesting bit – the strong correlation between a woman's experience of physical touch and her mental wellbeing. They both argue that mothers – specifically married mothers – are happier on average than other women. Together we examine the evidence.

Lindsay was raised in an offshoot of the Way International, then handed over at 12 to cult leader Victor Barnard as one of his “maidens.” For 10 years, she endured grooming, sexual abuse, and spiritual torment — all justified by a twisted interpretation of scripture. At 23, she fled. Thirteen years later, the true gospel broke through.

This week, Emilee is joined by Raquel, who shares her extraordinary first pregnancy and sovereign birth at the age of 39.Raquel speaks candidly about the profound transitions she navigated during this time. The death of her mother, leaving her job, moving homes, and entering into the work of congruency, boundaries, and privacy. Choosing a wild pregnancy, she hired a Radical Birth Keeper graduate to hold space as she walked this sacred path.She opens up about the challenges she faced postpartum with nursing and her child's tongue tie, reflecting on what she might do differently now. And she speaks with clarity about her sense of completion after one child, naming that she does not desire more.This conversation carries the archetype of the death of the maiden, a story of initiation, sovereignty, and the power of claiming motherhood on one's own terms.Donate to the podcast here.

In the fifth installment of their seven-part Deity Series, the witches turn toward the Goddess in her season of fullness: the Mother, the Maker, the Manifestor, the one who turns raw possibility into living, breathing reality. She is the bright fullness of the moon, the heat of summer, the hum of productivity, and the heartbeat that keeps community alive.Laylla and Chelle explore the Mother not only as the ancient figure of fertility but as a far more expansive and dynamic archetype for today's witches. This episode looks at the Mother as a creator and nurturer. A maker of art, careers, kinship, knowledge, and paths; as the one who carries the Maiden's vision forward with commitment and devotion; and as the archetype who teaches us how to choose, shape, and sustain the lives we are building.They also examine the deeper historical roots of the Mother Goddess, from the earliest Venus figurines and Paleolithic mother symbols to the great goddesses of world mythology. The witches unpack how these ancient themes influence modern witchcraft and how the Mother archetype has evolved far beyond biological motherhood into a symbol of agency, of creation, and of strength.Whether you are raising children, raising a garden, raising a business, or raising yourself through another chapter of becoming, this episode offers tools, myth, and magical perspective for awakening the Mother within.So brew something comforting, settle in, and join us as we explore the sacred, complex, profoundly human power of the Mother as Maker.Modern Heathen Celebration of SunwaitGot a question?

Together we explore common themes amongst mothers: anxiety and fear around birth, how her birth plan transformed, how she worked with fear and surrendered her sense of control, mom guilt, and the sense of waiting for the other shoe to drop. Her story speaks to women everywhere.My hope is that this conversation helps mothers feel less alone and reminds them that their stories matter.Highlights: How to use a pendulum to play a witchy game Jo played as a child to predict how many children she'd haveHow plant sacraments such as San Pedro supported her daughter's conception and birthThe paradigm shift between her indigenous midwives and a hospital team when they collaborated for the first time to support her C-section Jo's parenting approach based on philosophies such as the Buddhist Five RemembrancesConnect with Jo: www.rootandwisdom.comwww.sacredrootsfoundation.comInstagram: joalytrinidad , rootandwisdom If you'd like to connect with Stephanie, you can find her here:Instagram-@schoolofwhispers @__steef___ email-schoolofwhispers@gmail.com If you'd like to learn more about working with me, feel free to reach out via email or social media.

The Triple Goddess Called; She Wants to Update Her ResumeThe witches continue their series on Divinity in modern witchcraft with the first episode on the triple aspect of Goddess. They begin by discussing one of the most well-known frameworks in modern paganism: Maiden, Mother, Crone. They trace where this concept may have come from, how it became rooted in contemporary witchcraft, and why it still holds power for so many people. But they also look honestly at its limitations.In this episode focusing especially on the Maiden aspect, Laylla and Chelle talk about how titles once meant to empower now feel too narrow, too tied to childbearing, and too limited in their vision of womanhood, personhood, and divinity. They explore what it means to honor a Goddess who contains multitudes, and how we might reimagine these archetypes in ways that reflect lived experience, adult autonomy, creativity, sexuality, and identity beyond gender, fertility, or age.It's a conversation about myth, culture, and the shifting language of the sacred; and an invitation to rethink the Goddess not as a three-part story, but as a vast and evolving presence that grows with us.2025's Yule Winter Solstice Card Exchange is live!

Wow, a lot happened last time. I can understand if you need a little breather. Why not read this description to ease your mind? Reading something from a friendly perspective can help, or so I've been told. I think Logic did the right thing. I don't think our heroes had a fight in them. It would have been hard fought, and they would have lost. It couldn't have been avoided. Also those Nothic were very cryptic, weren't they? I don't know how much I can trust something with only one eye that speaks cryptically like that. The fate of a nothic is a sad one, though. I think this has been enough reading, don't you Max Hedman? I think our friends here can rest easy!Sound effects courtesy of Zapsplat.
Fairy tale retelling are having a moment, a moment that has extended for, like, millennia, but now the trend feels particularly hot. Host Susan Maguire sat down with librarian and Booklist reviewer Lucy Lockley about what's behind the fanfare and some titles and authors you should know. Then Audio Editor Heather Booth spoke to an art educator Heather Kostal about how she uses audiobooks in the classroom. Finally, Books for Youth's Ronny Khuri and I chatted about picture books about poop and other topics. We cover everything!

Before Operation: Mindcrime, there was this.Queensrÿche's 1984 debut The Warning is the album that almost didn't happen—at least not the way the band intended. While they were touring Japan, EMI executives remixed and completely rearranged their progressive metal masterpiece without permission, burying the band's weirdest, most ambitious material deeper in the tracklist. But even with corporate interference, The Warning stands as a pivotal moment in metal history: a Seattle band crafting something that sounded like nothing else in 1984, blending Iron Maiden gallops with Genesis-level prog complexity and Jeff Tate's otherworldly operatic vocals.In this episode, we break down why this debut matters—not just as a stepping stone to Mindcrime and Empire, but as a document of a band discovering their identity in real time. We debate whether it's a hidden gem or a rough draft, explore the label drama that reshaped the album's sequence, and dive into the tracks that reveal Queensrÿche's DNA: from the Maiden-esque power of “Deliverance” to the robotic sci-fi weirdness of “NM 156.” This is Double-A ball before the majors—you can see the talent, hear the potential, and witness five musicians isolated in Seattle creating something that would change progressive metal forever.If you love Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Fates Warning, or Dream Theater, this episode is for you.Episode Highlights0:00 – Intro: Poll results and how The Warning won the Metal Union vote5:23 – Album context: Queensrÿche in 1984—Seattle isolation and the progressive metal blueprint12:45 – “Deliverance” – The opening track that wasn't supposed to open the album18:32 – The EMI remix controversy: How the label rearranged the album while the band toured Japan24:15 – “NM 156” – The weird, jazzy, robotic prog odyssey that terrified record executives31:40 – Jeff Tate's voice at 24: Operatic range, theatrical character work, and why he's more than just “metal Bruce Dickinson”38:50 – “Take Hold of the Flame” – The anthem that hints at Operation: Mindcrime44:20 – Geography matters: Why being in Seattle (not L.A.) saved this band from breaking up51:10 – “Road to Madness” – Epic ambition or forced prog?

Interview with Rupert Verco, Managing Director & CEO, Cobra ResourcesOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/cobra-resources-lsecobr-high-grade-copper-gold-acquisition-ree-isr-7824Recording date: 19th November 2025Cobra Resources is positioning itself as a potential disruptor in the global rare earths market through its innovative Boland project in South Australia. The London-listed company is developing an in-situ recovery (ISR) operation targeting high-value heavy rare earths including dysprosium and terbium - critical components in permanent magnets for electric vehicles, renewable energy, and defense applications.What distinguishes Boland from conventional rare earth projects is its unique geological setting. Unlike traditional clay-hosted deposits, the project features permeable paleochannel geology similar to uranium ISR operations, which Managing Director Rupert Verco says "bypasses a lot of the operational challenges of traditional clays." The mineralization sits within naturally confined sand horizons, protected by 20 meters of impermeable clay above and below.Recent field hydrology studies have validated commercial viability, achieving pump rates of nearly 20,000 liters per day with 60% tracer recovery in just four days. These results support well spacing of 20-30 meters - comparable to uranium operations - and demonstrate the uniform aquifer response essential for efficient ISR extraction.The project's most significant breakthrough involves natural acid generation from sulfide-rich organics within the ore body. When oxidized, these materials produce sulfuric acid in-situ, potentially eliminating the largest operating cost and reducing dependence on Chinese supply chains. Current testing indicates acid consumption under 4 kilograms per ton—dramatically lower than typical rare earth operations.Metallurgically, Cobra has achieved 90% cerium suppression without heavy rare earth loss, producing concentrate containing 35% magnet rare earths and 50% heavy rare earths. This compares favorably to traditional carbonatite deposits that typically contain over 50% low-value cerium.With 3,300+ square kilometers of controlled tenure, resource drilling planned for early 2026, and a modular development approach targeting 4,000-5,000 tons annual production, Cobra is advancing toward what Verco describes as cost competitiveness comparable to "how Kazatomprom established themselves in the uranium game"—potentially offering Western supply chains a commercially viable alternative to Chinese rare earth dominance.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/cobra-resourcesSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
