Yvette Borja interviews Ahilan Arulanantham and Mariah Tso about the Mapping Deportations Project, which unmasks the history of racist immigration enforcement dating back to 1895, the first year that the government published data on deportations. They discuss the challenges of compiling and making sense of centuries-long data of deportations and exclusions, the Mapping Deportations data visualizations that show how immigration enforcement has policed the racial boundaries of the U.S. over time, and whether a non-racist border/ immigration enforcement system can exist.

Virginia Governor Sir William Berkeley has fled to the Eastern Shore with a small group of loyalist planters and a detachment of perhaps only fifty armed men. Nathaniel Bacon has occupied Berkeley's estate near Jamestown, and dispatched men to capture loyalist ships anchored there. Bacon's "navy" has out in search of Berkeley, but Berkeley turned the tables in an audacious amphibious attack and grabbed control of the Bay and the rivers. While Bacon was mucking around in the Dragon Swamp hunting notionally allied Pamunkeys, Berkeley recaptured Jamestown. Loyalist victory seemed at hand, but Bacon forced Berkeley to retreat from Jamestown a second time in part by grabbing the wives of loyalist planters and using them as human shields, and this time the rebels burn it to the ground. At the end of the episode, it appears that the rebels had the upper hand. Little did they understand that the loyalist cause was far from lost, and the rebellion was, unbeknownst to anybody, on the brink of disaster. My Substack Check out the new merch store!

Something is coming: https://lectern.johnvervaeke.com/p/whatnext What if mastery isn't about perfection—but about transformation? In this episode of The Lectern, John Vervaeke is joined by Ethan Hsieh to explore how the cultivation of virtuosity—typically associated with the arts—can become central to philosophical and existential growth. Ethan introduces his Tiamat process, a three-tier developmental framework integrating performance training, cognitive science, and dialogical practice. Together, they explore what it means to live a deliberately developmental life, moving beyond therapy into embodied transformation. Ethan draws from his background in acting, pedagogy, and philosophy to offer a new model of self-cultivation rooted in agency, feedback, metacognition, and trust. Ethan Hsieh is a facilitator, educator, and philosophical practitioner whose work bridges performance, cognition, and transformative pedagogy. As the creator of the Tiamat process, he integrates insights from embodied practice, developmental psychology, and dialogical philosophy to help individuals cultivate virtuosity as a way of life. Ethan is also a co-founder of Five to Midnight, a community of practice that fosters relational, developmental growth through shared inquiry.

But if that information is not organized inside our brain, then we tend to behave like that unorganized, unindexed library, full of clutter. So mind mapping is basically a diagram or a visual way of thinking that helps your brain organize the information.” “Mind mapping helps you move from chaos to clarity.” “Let me just try. I don't see why I shouldn't try.” “The more I teach, the better I get at the skill.” “At max, what will happen? You will fail. That's the worst that can happen. But the best thing that can happen is that even if one person turns up — teach that person.” “One of the best things I ever did for my kids ... Most of the time, kids will never remember the gifts you give them. But what they will remember are the experiences that you have with them, because it creates indelible memories.” “While I hold space for my clients to be vulnerable, I also need that mentorship. So I feel that it's not just me coaching someone, but there are times when I also need mentorship. I also need coaching from people.” “You can't coach anybody any further than you've been.” “If somebody is truly wanting to do that, he or she will find some way.” “Every time there's a problem, find clarity. Seek clarity.” USEFUL RESOURCES: https://topmate.io/dr_subra_mukherjee https://www.linkedin.com/in/subramukherjee/ https://www.instagram.com/dr.subra.mukherjee/ https://www.facebook.com/subramukherjeeroy https://x.com/subra_mukherjee https://www.youtube.com/@Subra_Mukherjee The Power of Self-Awareness: Your Doorway to a Balanced Life (https://a.co/d/9B3JcsV) CONNECT WITH JOHN Website - https://iamjohnhulen.com LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnhulen Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/johnhulen Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/johnhulen X - https://x.com/johnhulen YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLX_NchE8lisC4NL2GciIWA EPISODE CREDITS Intro and Outro music provided by Jeff Scheetz - https://jeffscheetz.com/
It's easy to take maps for granted. After all, most of us have a pretty good map in our pockets at all times, ready to show us how to get anywhere on the globe. But to make a map useful, you have to decide what to keep in and what to leave out—and, most importantly, which mathematical equations to use. Beyond navigating from point A to point B, math and maps come together for a wide variety of things, like working out the most efficient route to deliver packages, calculating the depth of the ocean floor, and more. Host Ira Flatow is joined by Paulina Rowińska, mathematician and author of Mapmatics: A Mathematician's Guide to Navigating the World, to go on a journey through the math at the heart of all kinds of maps.

Danielle's entrepreneurial journey begins in Nashville, where early roots shaped her Maverick mindset. From founding her first agency to taking risks that most would shy away from, she carved her own path with bold decisions and relentless drive. That spirit would ultimately fuel her transition from scrappy beginnings to leading multiple companies valued at over $50 million—all while working just ten hours a week.A defining lesson came from the infamous “Larry” mishire, which taught Danielle the cost of compromising on talent. Out of that experience grew her unwavering standard for five-star employees, backed by objective assessments and scorecards instead of traditional resumes. This shift not only elevated her team's performance but also transformed company culture, margins, and her own time freedom.Her discipline didn't stop at people—it extended to money. Adopting Profit First gave Danielle financial clarity, stronger partnerships, and the ability to scale without chaos. Pairing this with daily huddles kept her teams aligned, accountable, and agile, enabling fast course corrections that protected momentum and morale. Mapping ideal weeks became another tool to accelerate onboarding and embed focus into daily operations.Looking ahead, Danielle is doubling down on her mission to revolutionize hiring. With Five-Star Central, she envisions replacing resume-driven roulette with smarter, skills-based matching that could one day unseat Indeed. Along the way, mentors, peer forums, and collaborations with leaders like Mike Michalowicz (on All In) have sharpened her strategies. Danielle's story is a playbook on scaling smarter—proving that the right people, processes, and priorities can create extraordinary results with far less grind.Please visit www.internationalfacilitatorsorganization.com to learn more about Mo Fathelbab and International Facilitators Organization (IFO), a leading provider of facilitators and related group facilitation services, providing training, certification, marketing services, education, and community for peer group facilitators at all stages of their career.

Are you leaving half your leads on the table? In this episode, we are using Alex Hormozi's $100M Money Models to explore how to turn cold traffic into high-ticket clients. From mapping the customer journey to implementing conditional downsells, we break down exactly what works in marketing to maximize revenue without cutting prices.We explore how membership and continuity models are making a comeback, why speed-to-lead is critical, and how to structure Typeform knockouts to qualify leads efficiently. Plus, we dissect the art of downselling—how to offer a slice of your core program at a lower price while still setting up your prospects for the full high-ticket offer. We also share a real-world example from a client session where we redesigned their sales funnel, increased show rates, and built a structured upsell path that turns prospects into long-term customers. These insights should help you capture more leads, increase conversions, and maximize lifetime value in your business.In this episode:- Mapping the customer journey from cold ad to five-figure upsells- Speed-to-lead: why contacting prospects immediately is critical- The art of downselling- Understanding objections and reasons prospects don't buy- Guaranteeing results as a first downsell- Using check-in calls to upsell and demonstrate valueResources Mentioned In The Episode:Alex Hormozi's Book, $100M Money Models: How To Make Money: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/240367486-100m-money-models Listen to this episode on your favorite podcast channel:Follow and listen on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/perpetual-traffic/id1022441491 Follow and listen on Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/59lhtIWHw1XXsRmT5HBAuK Subscribe and watch on YouTube: perpetualtraffic.com/youtube We appreciate your support!Visit our website: https://perpetualtraffic.com/ Follow us on X: https://x.com/perpetualtraf Connect with Ralph Burns: LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/ralphburns Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/ralphhburns/ Hire Tier11 - https://www.tiereleven.com/apply-now Connect with Lauren Petrullo:Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/laurenepetrullo/LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/laurenpetrullo Consult Mongoose Media -
Send us a textA gleaming studio with a fence that listens. That's the paradox at Gold Base, Scientology's international HQ, where Golden Era Productions presents a pristine creative campus while security systems hum beneath the hedges. We take you through both worlds at once: pausing a polished promo film to identify the faces, jobs, and backstories you weren't told, then riding a drone's-eye map across soundstages, villas, tunnels, and the private grounds built for one man's comfort and control.We start by dissecting the “making movies to help the world” narrative and replace it with working reality. Why did manufacturing vanish while “training films” persisted? What does a lecture mix actually involve—and who decides which words get removed? We show the departments behind the doors and explain why an expensive film lab became obsolete on arrival. Then we move outside: the Cine Castle sitting directly on the perimeter, ladders and gear on hand; birthing blocks sized for a mythical 1,600 staff; the G Units reserved for VIPs; and the lower/middle/upper villas that formed an executive citadel. Building 50 and Bonnie View come into focus: a $40M command wing with a private tunnel under the highway and a lavish compound prepared for a founder who never returned.Security isn't a rumor here; it's infrastructure. We point out the main guard booth, ground mics on the fence, floodlights that turn night into noon, and the drills that lock everyone down. The “intruder” they train for is often a staffer trying to leave. That's why the escape stories matter: the trunk ride from talent parking, the riverbed sprint under night vision, the quick lie at a gate to “cross” the highway. Even the lake and pool have two meanings—resort imagery and ritual humiliation dressed as maritime tradition.

Watch the YouTube version of this episode HEREAre you a lawyer looking for some tips on AI technology? In this episode of Maximum Lawyer, Tyson and expert guest Martin Kravchenko discuss the practical use of AI technologies—such as vibe coding, AI agents, and tools like Gemini, ChatGPT, and Notebook LM—in legal and personal injury law firms. Tyson and Martin discuss bottlenecks within firms, especially with tech versus human bottlenecks. For law firms, Martin suggests that people are the biggest bottlenecks if you don't have the right amount of staff in your firm doing the right work. With a small firm, the people are important. As a firm increases, technology can become the bottleneck because there has to be a good, streamlined system in place to ensure people are able to do their jobs. If a good, solid CRM is not in place, the whole firm can really suffer.Martin speaks about his use of an AI tool called Gemini and the benefits of it. One thing is people can access it through their Google Workspace and Gmail, which makes it easy and efficient. It can also process documents better, which for lawyers who work with medical records, can be really handy. Many people struggle with badly scanned PDF documents, which for Gemini, it can read quite well. This can make any lawyer's life a lot easier when preparing for a case.Listen in to learn more!1:35 Integrating New Tools into Law Firm Processes2:21 Mapping and Standardizing Law Firm Processes4:18 Centralizing Templates and Knowledge Management7:35 When to Invest in Technology vs. Human Resources8:51 Effective Prompting and AI Tool Usage16:29 AI-Generated Content and Deepfakes17:12 Why Prefer Gemini Over Other AI Models20:56 The Value of Simple, Scalable Solutions35:32 Future of AI Agents and Legal Practice50:25 Long-Term Vision: Lawyers as Monitors of AI AgentsTune in to today's episode and checkout the full show notes here.

Partnered with a Survivor: David Mandel and Ruth Stearns Mandel
Blame doesn't make families safer—clarity does. We sit down with Scottish survivors and practitioners from Equally Safe Falkirk to explore how a survivor-centered, perpetrator-focused, child safety–driven approach changes practice, confidence, and outcomes. You'll hear how validation replaces tick-box culture, how naming protective parenting restores mothers' confidence, and how raising standards for fathers reframes accountability as a set of concrete parenting choices.Nicolla and Emma walk us through building a service with lived experience at its core—co-designing groups like Serenity and Women Unite, challenging harmful language. While survivors Steph and Lita share raw, powerful stories of experiencing moving from professional and systemic victim-blaming and invisibility to being believed and partnered with. Their accounts reveal what happens when professionals consistently pivot back to the perpetrator's behavior, document survivor strengths, and stay curious instead of prescriptive. The result isn't just better engagement; it's safer children, stronger parenting, and more effective multi-agency work.We also dig into the tough stuff: working with fathers who cause harm without colluding, addressing trauma and substance use without excusing abuse, and building the skills to challenge, contain, and guide change over time. Tools like the Choose to Change Toolkit help dads interrupt escalation, but the heartbeat is consistent messaging: Your behavior is a parenting choice with consequences for your child's physical and mental health. Leaders will hear a clear call to invest in rigorous training, align language across agencies, and normalize accountability for fathers as a core child protection standard.If this conversation challenged you or gave you a new tool, share it with a colleague, subscribe for more survivor-centered practice, and leave a review with the one insight you'll use this week.Send us a text Now available!

Host Anne Thompson explores the diverse and innovative methods being employed in Australia to build and retain the technical workforce in the mining industry. From attracting new talent, to supporting early career geoscientists, to training professionals from other industries - this episode might just change your perspective on what is possible.First up, Brendan Howard, General Manager for Technical Capability at Rio Tinto and a founder of the MiEX (Minerals Industry Experience) Program, addresses the mining sector's shrinking and less diverse talent pipeline. The success of MiEX, a collaborative industry-led program, highlights the value of early engagement with undergraduate students. The pilot in January 2025 drew over 500 applicants for 69 places with 90% of participants expressing intent to pursue mining careers. New conversations are underway in North America to bring this exciting opportunity to more students.Richard Lilly, the University of Adelaide presents NExUS (National Exploration Undercover School) based in South Australia, which provides hands-on experience and essential training to geoscience students, bridging the gap between academic knowledge and industry requirements. NExUS combines technical learning with professional networking, using the South Australian Drill Core Library and nearby field sites to expose students to geophysics, core logging, and exploration through cover. Lilly is now stepping down after 10 years as Director, with the hope that this successful model will continue and be expanded to other jurisdictions to better prepare geoscientists for evolving exploration challenges.Lastly, Deng Ngang Deng, from Target Mining Resources, shares his inspiring journey from South Sudan to professional geoscientist in Western Australia. Deng was involved in establishing the Pan Africa Resource Reporting Code (PARC) and an invited plenary speaker at SEG 2024 in Namibia. At home in Australia, he has developed an innovative approach to training and employing geoscientists and other technical mining workers. Initiated during the pandemic, the company continues to expand and add to their portfolio of skills they train for, successfully filling a gap in mining recruitment.Many thanks to Avo Media for production support.

Voices is a new mini-series from Humanitarian AI Today. In daily five-minute flashpods we pass the mic to innovators, researchers and practitioners on the humanitarian front lines, delivering real-time news on how they are building, testing and collaborating on uses of artificial intelligence. In this flashpod, Erica Gralla, an Associate Professor at George Washington University , shares news about a new project seeking to understand the impact of recent aid funding cuts on the humanitarian and development system. The study specifically looks at how major funding cuts to U.S. aid programs in 2025 are affecting the sector. She calls on listeners who work in aid or development to participate in the study by taking a "global pulse survey". This project brings together three professors from the fields of engineering, policy, and international relations. Their goal is to understand how the funding cuts are affecting relationships, coordination, information sharing, and supply chains across organizations. By tracking how the aid ecosystem is adapting, the team hopes to capture lessons from this challenging period and help the humanitarian community chart a path forward. Erica and Humanitarian AI Today producer, Brent Phillips, discuss the survey in detail, how people can get involved, what the research team expects to learn, and the project's next steps.

Welcome back to the EUCVC Summit Talks, where we bring you candid conversations with Europe's leading founders, corporate leaders, and investors shaping the future of venture collaboration.In this episode, Samuli Sirén, Managing Partner at Redstone, joins Andreas Munk Holm to explore how data-driven deal sourcing is reshaping venture capital. Redstone has spent nearly a decade building Sophia, its proprietary analytics platform, to track trends, identify group dynamics, and map startup opportunities long before they show up on mainstream radars.From the promise and limits of AI in scouting to the common mistakes corporates make in startup sourcing, Samuli pulls back the curtain on what works, what doesn't, and how data can give investors an edge without replacing human judgment.
This conversation with Peter delves into the rich history and culture of Britain, exploring the interplay between myth and reality, particularly through the lens of Arthurian legends and the influence of Christianity. We also delve into the exploration of ancient civilizations, focusing on archaeological finds, the Neolithic period, and the connections between zodiac symbols and historical narratives. We discuss the significance of cultural exchanges, the influence of geography on ancient societies, and the legacy of figures like Arthur in the context of myth and history.

Private markets are swelling, public markets are shrinking, and the line between the two has never been blurrier. In this episode, CJ sits down with Scott Voss, Managing Partner at HarbourVest, to make sense of what's happening across venture, private equity, credit, and secondaries. Scott explains why companies like SpaceX and OpenAI are now valued alongside public giants, how the surge in take-privates is reshaping corporate strategy, and what happens when the quarterly earnings pressure disappears. They dive into the rise of GP-led deals, the evolving role of private credit as the “third voice in the room,” and why liquidity—not scarcity—will define this cycle. Scott also breaks down the growing appeal of evergreen and permanent capital structures, plus what AI mega-deals signal about the next phase of private investing.—LINKS:Scott Voss on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/scott-voss-b91b94/HarbourVest Partners: https://www.harbourvest.comCJ on X (@cjgustafson222): https://x.com/cjgustafson222Mostly metrics: https://www.mostlymetrics.comRELATED EPISODES:Secondaries, Continuation Vehicles, and Sidecar Funds: Private Equity with HarbourVest's Scott Voss -—TIMESTAMPS:(00:00:00) Preview and Intro(00:02:49) Sponsor – Mercury | RightRev | Tipalti(00:06:43) Opening Conversation(00:07:23) The Blurring Line Between Public and Private(00:09:36) The Rise of Mega Venture(00:11:20) The First $10 Trillion Company(00:12:28) The Shrinking Public Markets(00:13:09) Take-Private Playbook(00:14:04) Why Companies Go Private(00:16:00) Sponsor – Aleph | Rillet | Fidelity Private Shares(00:19:21) Efficiency and Exits(00:23:15) Liquidity in Private Markets(00:24:01) Secondaries and GP-Led Deals(00:27:14) Yale and the Secondary Market(00:29:09) Innovation and the Rise of GP-to-GP Trades(00:30:16) Liquidity Cycles and Interest Rates(00:33:18) The Third Voice in the Room – Private Credit(00:34:44) Private Credit and GP-Led Deals(00:36:02) Interest Rates and Deal Spreads(00:37:15) The Major Players in Private Credit(00:38:09) Regulation and Risk(00:39:25) Private Credit vs. Traditional Lending(00:40:33) Evergreen and Permanent Capital(00:45:57) Expanding Access to Private Markets(00:47:03) Understanding the Cap Table(00:47:44) AI Deals and Consolidation(00:50:00) The Evolution of AI and Blockchain(00:53:20) Funding Innovation and Risk(00:55:28) Lessons From Investing(00:55:39) Nostalgia and Life Phases(00:57:06) Nostalgia and the 1990s(00:59:21) Learn, Earn, and Return(01:00:45) Talking Nostalgia at Dinners(01:01:27) Summer Surfing(01:02:25) Wrap-Up and Closing—SPONSORS:Fidelity Private Shares is the all-in-one equity management platform that keeps your cap table clean, your data room organized, and your equity story clear—so you never risk losing a fundraising round over messy records.

From the publisher: As the US struggles to provide affordable housing, millions of Americans live in deteriorating public housing projects, enduring the mistakes of past housing policy. In The Projects, Howard A. Husock explains how we got here, detailing the tragic rise and fall of public housing and the pitfalls of other subsidy programs. He takes us inside a progressive movement led by a group of New York City philanthropists, politicians, and business magnates who first championed public housing as a solution to urban blight. From First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt to the controversial city planner Robert Moses, many well-known historical figures made a convincing case for affordable housing in America.Despite the movement's lofty ideals, the creation of the Projects led to the destruction of low-income communities across the country. From the Hill District in Pittsburgh to Black Bottom in Detroit, predominantly Black neighborhoods were judged only by the quality of their housing. Husock looks beyond these neighborhoods' physical conditions to their uncounted riches, from local artists like August Wilson to vital community institutions. As he shares residents' stories, he honors what they crafted through their own plans, rather than those of city planners.Husock traces the history of public housing to contemporary debates on the government's role in the housing market. Through interviews with residents, he reveals how public housing transformed the lives of Americans and the physical faces of cities and towns. He ultimately critiques "repair and reform" efforts, making policy recommendations that address the core failings of public housing for the people it was once designed to help. Mapping out a better path for policy-makers, he lays a new foundation for upward mobility in America.For information on his book from NYU Press, check out: https://nyupress.org/9781479828432/the-projects/Support our show and Reach out and Read of Tampa Bay at https://patreon.com/axelbankhistoryAxelbankHistory.com is designed by https://www.ellieclairedesigns.com/Axelbank Reports History and Today" can be found on social media at https://twitter.com/axelbankhistoryhttps://instagram.com/axelbankhistoryhttps://facebook.com/axelbankhistory

In this episode of SpaceTime, we explore the future of our universe, the latest advancements in mapping our Milky Way, and the pivotal role fungi played in the evolution of life on land.The Universe's Fate: A Big Crunch in 20 Billion YearsA groundbreaking study published in the Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics reveals that the universe is approaching the midpoint of its 33 billion-year lifespan and may end in approximately 20 billion years. Lead author Henry Tighe from Cornell University presents new data suggesting that the universe's cosmological constant may be negative, leading to a contraction and eventual collapse—a phenomenon referred to as the "big crunch." This research, based on observations from the Dark Energy Survey and the dark energy spectroscopic instrument DESI, challenges long-held beliefs about the universe's eternal expansion and opens new avenues for understanding cosmic evolution.Mapping the Milky Way: Gaia's 3D ViewThe European Space Agency's Gaia Space Telescope has unveiled the most precise three-dimensional map of star-forming regions within our Milky Way galaxy. By analysing data from 44 million stars, Gaia has provided insights into the obscured molecular clouds where new stars are born. This innovative mapping technique allows astronomers to understand the distribution of ionised gas and the dynamics of star formation, offering a fresh perspective on our galaxy's structure and the processes that shape it.Fungi: The Pioneers of Terrestrial LifeA recent study published in Nature Ecology and Evolution has identified that fungi played a crucial role in preparing Earth for life on land between 900 million and 1.4 billion years ago—much earlier than previously thought. Researchers from the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology utilised a novel gene swap method to trace the evolution of fungi, suggesting that these organisms were instrumental in creating the first ecosystems and nutrient recycling processes that facilitated the emergence of terrestrial life. This discovery reframes our understanding of the timeline for life on Earth and highlights the importance of fungi in shaping our planet's biosphere.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesJournal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physicshttps://www.cosmos.esa.int/web/gaiaNature Ecology and Evolutionhttps://www.nature.com/neweBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-your-guide-to-space-astronomy--2458531/support.The Universe's Fate: A Big Crunch in 20 Billion YearsMapping the Milky Way: Gaia's 3D ViewFungi: The Pioneers of Terrestrial Life

In this episode of SpaceTime, we delve into the intriguing potential for life on the dwarf planet Ceres, explore NASA's latest mission to study the heliosphere, and celebrate the achievements of the University of Melbourne's Spirit Nanosat.Ceres: A Potentially Habitable World?Recent research published in Science Advances suggests that Ceres, currently a frigid and frozen world, may have once harboured conditions suitable for life. By modelling the planet's thermal and chemical history, scientists propose that Ceres could have sustained a long-lasting energy source, allowing for microbial metabolism. While there's no direct evidence of life, the findings indicate that Ceres had the necessary ingredients—water, carbon, and chemical energy—that could have supported single-celled organisms in its ancient past.Nasa's New Heliospheric MissionNASA has launched the Interstellar Mapping and Acceleration Probe (IMAP) to investigate the heliosphere, the magnetic bubble surrounding our solar system. This mission aims to enhance our understanding of solar wind and its interactions with interstellar particles, which are crucial for assessing space weather impacts on Earth. IMAP will operate alongside the Carruthers Geocorona Observatory and NOAA's Swifo L1 spacecraft, contributing to a comprehensive study of our solar environment.Spirit Nanosat's Milestone AchievementThe University of Melbourne's Spirit nanosatellite has successfully completed its initial mission phase, deploying its thermal management system and taking a selfie in space. Launched in December 2023, Spirit is equipped with a miniaturised gamma-ray detector to search for gamma-ray bursts, marking a significant advancement in small satellite technology and scientific exploration.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesScience Advanceshttps://www.science.org/journal/sciadvNASA IMAP Missionhttps://www.nasa.gov/imapUniversity of Melbourne Spirit Nanosatellitehttps://www.unimelb.edu.au/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-your-guide-to-space-astronomy--2458531/support.Ceres: A Potentially Habitable World?NASA's New Heliospheric MissionSpirit Nanosat's Milestone Achievement(00:00) New study claims the dwarf planet Ceres could once have been habitable enough for life(05:14) The Interstellar Mapping and Acceleration Probe will study the heliosphere(15:58) New study finds tropical fish are colonising new habitats because of ocean warming(18:07) Khloe Kardashian reportedly claims she's seen UFOs and experienced paranormal activity
On this episode, we sit down with Stacy Cushenbery, Senior Manager for Global Regenerative Agriculture at Oatly, to unpack how one of the world's most recognizable plant-based brands is tackling regeneration at scale. We explore why Oatly chose an “equivalent acres” approach instead of chasing identity-preserved sourcing, and how that decision balances procurement flexibility with landscape-level impact. We dive into why mill partners are the hidden backbone of their program — organizing farmers, shaping agronomy plans, and making regen real on the ground. Stacy shares the nuts and bolts of what practices Oatly is paying farmers to adopt, how much support they receive, and what the company has learned about building trust and iteration into the process. And finally, we go inside the business model — how Oatly calculated program costs down to a cost-per-liter of oat milk and embedded those expenses directly into procurement budgets. It's a conversation about pragmatism meeting ambition, about turning lofty sustainability goals into operational reality, and about how brands can work across systems to create genuine impact. Episode Highlights:

Explore the ocean floor is more than a scientific ambition, it is a global necessity. In this episode of How to Protect the Ocean, Andrew Lewin speaks with Tim Kearns, Executive Director of Map the Gaps, about the upcoming Ocean Floor Explorer conference in Victoria, BC. They discuss why mapping the seabed is vital for science, conservation, and society, while uncovering how challenges like funding and technology can be turned into opportunities for global collaboration. Mapping initiatives are not only about science but also about storytelling, communication, and inspiring action. Andrew and Tim highlight how diverse communities can play a role, from students and researchers to policymakers and entrepreneurs. The conversation explores how events like this conference bring people together to tackle some of the biggest challenges in deep-sea exploration while building networks that fuel long-term solutions.

The Susquehannocks, having successfully escaped from their beseiged fort on Piscataway Creek in Maryland, fled through the Virginia Piedmont to set up winter quarters on the James and Roanoke Rivers. In January 1676, they launched a measured counterattack. The settlers on the frontier panicked and evacuated. Rumors of war spread. The horrors of King Philip's War loomed large, especially in the thinking of Sir William Berkeley, the governor. A fundamental debate over how to respond to those Susquehannock attacks set up the confrontation between Nathaniel Bacon and his populist - and it should be said, hard-drinking - frontiersmen on the one hand, and Berkeley and his loyalist supporters on the other. Along the way we consider Governor Berkeley's background and the experiences that shaped him, and the political challenges that he now confronted. The episode ends with Bacon's massacre of the Occaneechees (Occaneechis), heretofore allies of Virginia, on their island in the Roanoke River. Check out the new merch store!
