Podcasts about memorable

Edge City is one of the most exciting, fun, engaging, dynamic communities of which I'm a part -- and here I get to interview one of the founders! (This is very exciting for me.)Edge City runs month-long "pop-up villages" — 500 to 1,000 people from tech, science, culture, and art, gathered in one small, walkable town, building things together. In Timour's words, "It's got the dynamism of a city, with the vibe of a village — that's kind of a design principle for us."In my words: It's like summer camp meets a tech conference ... and it's also a hotbed of attraction. :)But what happens when you meet someone in an environment where you absolutely will run into them again? What if you don't want to make her uncomfortable by asking her out? How do organizers think about this?As Timour puts it, "We are in a weird time when it comes to dating.” But don't worry -- we discuss the anonymous "crush" feature that could change everything.We also get into the dating dynamics at the village specifically, including my feeling of being surrounded by attractive men and yet noticeably under-approached. We cover the couple whose second date really was an entire month-long event, and the strange twist where Timour says this is actually the opposite of Burning Man's infamous "playa romance" phenomenon.If you've ever wondered whether there's a real-world alternative to the apps — something that isn't just another platform — this one's worth your full attention.—Come to Edge City!The next Edge City is in Goa, India from Oct 11–Nov 1.

W10 Lisa Feener & Kelly Irwin – Pack Life Kelly Irwin and Lisa Feener join the podcast to share their experiences in the world of hound hunting, from raising generations of bear dogs to navigating a traditionally male-dominated sport. This conversation explores memorable hunts, dog breeding, wildlife behavior, mentorship, and the deep bond between houndsmen and their dogs. More than anything, this episode is about the dogs, the people who love them, and the traditions that keep the sport alive.

Can preterm birth be prevented? Historically the answer has been no, and the numbers back that up. In 2006 the U.S. preterm birth rate was about 12 percent. In 2024 it was 10.4 percent. Medicine has gotten dramatically better at keeping premature babies alive, but almost no better at keeping pregnancies from ending early. In this episode, Kristin and Dr. Abdelhak make the case that the answer is yes, preterm birth can be prevented far more often than it is now, and that the field has been looking in the wrong place. Preterm birth is not one condition. It is a grab bag: placental abruption, systemic infection like appendicitis or pyelonephritis, uterine overdistension from twins, triplets, or polyhydramnios, trauma, severe hypertension, stimulant and cocaine use. Every one of those causes announces itself. The woman with triplets is obviously carrying triplets. The woman with an abruption is bleeding and in pain. So what about the woman with none of that, doing everything right, who shows up at 30 weeks contracting and three centimeters dilated? For forty years the answer was "subclinical infection," a diagnosis Dr. Abdelhak takes apart in this episode. If it is subclinical, why is preterm labor the only clinical thing it ever does? Why does an appendicitis start with pain and fever and end in labor, while this mystery infection skips straight to the last step? And after four decades of amniocentesis studies cataloguing cytokines, interleukins, and prostaglandins, where is the treatment? There isn't one, because researchers found exactly what they went looking for. His answer is mechanical, not microbial. The cervix is a timekeeper on the pregnancy. Conventional teaching says contractions open the cervix. He argues it runs the other way: the cervix quietly gives way over weeks, and when it opens far enough, labor starts. That is why he says he is almost never surprised by a preterm labor. He was already watching the cervix shorten. Also covered: why previous preterm birth is the single strongest risk factor (it is the same cervix), why cone biopsy raises risk more than LEEP does, what funneling on ultrasound actually tells you, the difference between classic cervical insufficiency and the milder version that still lets you reach the third trimester, and why a three-hour precipitous labor at 38 weeks may be the same finding wearing a friendlier face. The practical takeaway: serial cervical length measurement for anyone with a red flag, first-time moms included, and cerclage when the cervix starts to open. Screening plus treatment, not a pill for an infection nobody can find. Plus: why the president and Taylor Swift would get their cervix measured every single week, and what that tells you about the standard of care the rest of us are offered. Topics covered, in order Why this topic is worth repeating, and why the framing here is not the conventional one The better question: preventing preterm birth, not preterm labor Fifty years, the March of Dimes, and a rate that has barely moved What we did get better at: neonatal survival and outcomes, not prevention Preterm birth as a grab bag, not a single disease Placental abruption Systemic infection: appendicitis, pyelonephritis, sepsis, severe pneumonia, COVID The subclinical infection theory, and the case against it Why the amniocentesis and cytokine studies found what they set out to find Uterine overdistension: twins, triplets, polyhydramnios Trauma, decidual hemorrhage Severe hypertension, pulsatile flow, and abruption risk before 20 weeks Cocaine, methamphetamine, smoking The patient nobody can explain, and what is actually going on The core claim: dilation causes the contractions, not the other way around Why Dr. Abdelhak is rarely surprised by a preterm labor Mild cervical insufficiency, and "dreamlike" cervical insufficiency at 38 weeks Why previous preterm birth is the number one risk factor LEEP versus cone biopsy, and why cone matters more Normal variation in cervical length, and the big nose analogy Length is not everything: bulk, thickness, and how the cervix feels Funneling on ultrasound as a warning sign The proposal: serial cervical length screening plus cerclage Why the numbers are U.S. numbers, and why international rates are not trustworthy The VIP standard of care, and who actually gets weekly scans Key takeaways Preterm birth is not one condition. Abruption, systemic infection, overdistension, trauma, and severe hypertension each have their own mechanism, and each is usually obvious on arrival. "Subclinical infection" is not a diagnosis, it is a placeholder. Forty years in, it has produced no treatment and no measurable drop in the preterm birth rate. The cervix is the timekeeper. When it is weak, it opens slowly over weeks, and labor follows the opening rather than causing it. Previous preterm birth predicts the next one because it is the same cervix. You cannot order a new one. Cone biopsy raises preterm birth risk more than LEEP, because more cervix is removed. Length is a clue, not a verdict. Plenty of women have naturally short cervixes and carry to term. Funneling, bulk, and change over time matter as much as a single number. The intervention that would move the needle already exists. Serial cervical length measurement in anyone with a risk factor, and cerclage when it starts to open. Screening and treatment, not a mystery pill. Terms mentioned Placental abruption — the placenta separating from the uterine wall before delivery. Pyelonephritis — kidney infection. Polyhydramnios — too much amniotic fluid. Uterine overdistension — the uterus stretched beyond its comfortable capacity, as with twins or triplets. Cervical insufficiency — a cervix that opens without labor. Funneling — the cervix opening from the inside out, visible on ultrasound before any external change. Cerclage — a stitch placed to reinforce the cervix. LEEP and cone biopsy — procedures removing cervical tissue after abnormal Pap or HPV findings. Precipitous labor — a very fast labor, often under three hours. Memorable quotes: "I am telling you what happened was the three centimeters dilated caused the contractions." "If it's subclinical, why doesn't it stay that way?" "The cervix is a mechanical timekeeper on the pregnancy." Got something you want to share or ask? Keep it coming. We love hearing from you.

There are bad practices that no one should do when they get involved in opens source communities.In this segment of the My Open Source Experience podcast Greg Kroah-Hartman shares three examples from Linux history where people followed some bad patterns, which then somtimes resulted in raising the bar for everyone else.1. Merge and DisappearGreg shares an example where someone contributed a big change to the core parts of the kernel, and then became unreachable. It took the Linux community quite some time to unwind the changes and clean up the code. All open source communities are based on trust, when someone betrays that they make it harder for other to build trust as well. The community is more flexible with changes that are well isolated, like a filesystem or a driver, but you still can't betray peopl's trust with any of your actions during the contrubution process.2. Binary driversIt's a NO, you also don't want that, but also, you just can't. Some companies used to apply a trick, but they've been coming around as well.3. Never experiment on a community, especially without a consentGreg shares the interesting story when a university professor and some students went ahead and wrote a paper about submitting and landing patches in the Linux kernel that introduced vulnerabilities. It turned out that they weren't truthful in their paper, and also forgot to notify everyone about the experiment. While the university was banned for a while, this turned out to be a story with a happy ending with students now contributing to the kernel as part of their studies.Further advantage of open source SW development methods is that the change history is available online, the community can always go back and remove code if a controller becomes untrustworthy at any point in time after getting their changes merged.#opensource #community #collaboration #experience #podcast Hosted on Acast.

She Said “Prove It!” Then Did the Impossible? Tricia's Playground Challenge Stuns Everyone Can you still do something today that you were fearless enough to do as a kid? That question sparked one of the most entertaining and unexpected moments on this episode of The JB and Sandy Show when Tricia confidently claimed she could still launch herself off a playground swing just like she did as a child. Naturally, the only response was: “Prove it.” What followed turned a routine Saturday morning into an unforgettable playground showdown, complete with disbelief, laughs, and a stunt that left everyone impressed. The crew dives into childhood memories, playground adventures, and the surprisingly competitive spirit that comes alive when someone gets challenged. Tricia delivers one of the episode's standout moments when she backs up her bold claim, prompting Sandy to admit, “I was impressed.” The fun continues with a lively discussion about old-school games, growing up before padded playgrounds became the norm, and the simple challenges that defined childhood. Plus, the gang shares their thoughts on Austin's intense summer heat, leading into Sandy's hilarious original poem, “Ode to the Hottest Week of the Year.” Memorable lines about scorching steering wheels, relentless temperatures, and even overheated wildlife make for one of the episode's biggest laugh-out-loud segments. Also in this episode:The upcoming Lake Austin drawdown and why it has locals talkingThe possibility of a major film studio expansion in Austin and what it could mean for the cityA debate about how much Austin has changed over the yearsJB's latest household upgrade that has everyone reconsidering their own garagesA classic Jeff Foxworthy comedy moment that delivers plenty of laughsFrom nostalgia and neighborhood challenges to Austin news and everyday life observations, this episode captures everything listeners love about The JB and Sandy Show: authentic conversations, unexpected humor, and the chemistry that makes you feel like you're hanging out with old friends.

What If Your Partner Gave You a Performance Review Today? The Hilarious Marriage Scores You Won't Believe What if your spouse had to sit down and give you an annual performance review... and be completely honest about it? On this unforgettable episode of The JB and Sandy Show, the crew kicks things off with laughs about rattlesnakes, "Mr. No Shoulders," and the surprising things that show up in people's social media feeds before diving into a wildly entertaining discussion that quickly takes a personal turn. Tricia brings a round of Care, Don't Care featuring everything from a massive egg recall to the unexpected phenomenon of "Ozempic babies," plus the hilarious story of country star Shaboozey accidentally floating through a wedding ceremony and becoming the most unexpected guest of the day. The conversation then shifts to state fair food, fairground traditions, and the legendary treats Texans can't resist. From funnel cakes and corny dogs to some truly bizarre culinary creations, the team debates what belongs on the ultimate fair food bucket list. But the standout moment of the episode is a segment that had everyone laughing and cringing at the same time: the Marriage Review. Inspired by workplace evaluations, JB, Sandy, and Tricia put their relationships under the microscope and hand out scores for communication, fun, household effort, spending habits, affection, and overall pleasantness. Memorable moments include JB's wife giving him a perfect 15 out of 10 for affection, Sandy admitting that some household tasks remain mysteriously unfinished, and Tricia delivering the unforgettable line: "Many of these points are for effort, not results." The reviews are brutally honest, surprisingly sweet, and packed with the kind of real-life relationship humor that listeners love. You'll also hear why Sophie Cunningham is becoming one of America's most relatable sports personalities, how a simple bar singalong helped boost her popularity, and why authenticity still wins people over. If you love candid conversations, funny relationship stories, unexpected celebrity moments, and plenty of laughs between friends, this episode delivers from start to finish. Subscribe to The JB and Sandy Show, leave a review, and share this episode with someone who would definitely want to know what score they'd get from their spouse. 

Ask a question hereSPLASH 2026: Why Pool Professionals—and Their Teams—Need to Be ThereSPLASH isn't just another excuse to escape the office, collect two years' worth of free pens, and start asking suspicious questions about when the complimentary slushy machine becomes a margarita machine.For pool professionals across Australia and the Southern Hemisphere, SPLASH is the industry event. It's where new products are launched, new technology is demonstrated, business ideas are exchanged, and technicians finally see that the pool industry is much bigger than the route, retail counter, or equipment pad they work around every day.This week on Mondays Down Under, Lee Salisbury and Nick discuss what makes SPLASH worth attending, why business owners should consider bringing at least one team member, and how the event can reinvigorate a workforce heading out of winter and into the madness of summer.Lee also previews the customer-service and business-growth forums she will be facilitating, while Nick shares the story of a commercial fountain whose chemical controller had apparently been plumbed backward—and remained that way for somewhere between five and seven years while another company visited three times a week.In This Episode What SPLASH is and why it matters to the Australian pool and spa industry  How the trade show has evolved over the decades  Memorable exhibits, product demonstrations and promotional giveaways  Why technicians and younger employees should experience a major industry event  Using SPLASH to motivate and educate your team before summer  New products, software developments and masterclasses expected at the show  Lee's business-growth and customer-experience forums  Protecting productive time with the “red headphones” rule  Deciding which tasks should be delegated before the busy season  Why workplace interruptions cost more time than most managers realize  Preparing your business and staff for the transition from winter into summer  Nick's battle with a badly installed 30,000-litre commercial fountain  A chemical dosing system that had been plumbed incorrectly for years  What happens when equipment is serviced repeatedly without anyone diagnosing the actual problem If you're attending SPLASH, keep an eye out for Lee, Nick and the Mondays Down Under crew—and make sure you say hello.

Amazing Race Canada: Season 12 Ep 5 Recap Also available on YouTube. We Know The Amazing Race dives into The Amazing Race Canada season 12, episode 5, with Jessica Liese and Dan Heaton at the mic. This week's episode features tasks that highlight just how uniquely Canadian this race can get. Turtle rescues, butter tart deliveries, and a detour set in a canoe museum all add to the mix. Through playful commentary and sharp analysis, the podcast breaks down why this leg may be one of the most “Canadian” yet, sparking questions about strategy, challenge design, and whether anyone can actually keep ice cream cold on the run. Listeners get a recap of the teams' journey across Toronto, Peterborough, and Bobcaygeon, complete with Presto cards and a Chamber of Commerce-approved itinerary. The episode's centerpiece, a relentless park game task with a taxidermied beaver, sets the stage for record-breaking failed attempts and arguments over when to use the coveted Express Pass. Dan Heaton guides the discussion into the mechanics of the U-Turn vote, the social calculations at play, and how these decisions impact both frontrunners and teams at risk. Turtle trivia, ice cream debates, and hometown musical nods pepper the conversation, making for a light-hearted yet thoughtful rundown of race highlights. Dissection of the “Cottage Games” task, where teams rack up double-to-triple-digit attempts as locals chant “Beaver” and Express Pass strategies come under the microscope. Analysis of the U-Turn vote: how teams on the first flight formed a strategy that focused on survival over targeting strong competitors, and reflections on past U-Turn dynamics in other seasons. Recap of detour choices at the canoe museum, discussion about the unbalanced difficulty between searching for real canoes and braving a canoe obstacle course. Memorable moments with turtle care at a local wildlife center, including lessons on turtle anatomy that leave the racers and listeners both bemused and informed. Playful debate about Canadian ice cream flavors—Tragically Chip, Moon Mist, and Tigertail—and discussion on whether anyone actually eats their ice cream before reaching the pit stop. Who stands out in this season's steady top tier, and are the teams learning from past strategic pitfalls or repeating familiar patterns? As the race enters its second half, which task pushes racers the hardest, and does the new U-Turn vote approach truly level the playing field? Catch the full episode for an inside look at the strategies, stumbles, and local delights shaping The Amazing Race Canada's wildest leg yet. 0:00 Beaver Challenge Sets Episode Tone 6:18 U-Turn Vote Strategy Unfolds 12:13 Teams Debate U-Turn Effectiveness 16:10 Frisbee Task Frustration Mounts 19:08 Canoe Detour Proves Unbalanced 23:23 Turtle Sanctuary Moment of Levity 27:18 Butter Tart Delivery Race 32:04 Ice Cream Task Sparks Debate 42:18 Top Teams Begin to Emerge 46:20 Comparing US and Canada Twists 51:09 Favorite Ice Creams and Questions 56:14 Saying Goodbye to Keshia and Nova Race on over to Twitter to follow these hosts and share all of your thoughts with us on Twitter by tagging @RobHasAPodcast and using the hashtag #RHAP!

Let's be real: Modern dating culture can suck. Between ghosting, confusion over when to have sex, the commodification of our love lives, and people throwing up old photos on Tinder, Feeld, or Bumble, it's not always clear how to make it work.But Freya isn't playing by the rules anymore. Instead of sticking with the apps, which can leave both men and women feeling dejected, she's running a full-blown, 3-month public campaign to find a boyfriend ... and she's inviting her entire audience along for the ride.What's equally as cool is that she's challenging herself on an essentially daily basis to approach men in the wild. We get all up into how this is going for her (how do you approach a guy at the grocery store? What if he's got headphones in? What if he's taken? How does she handle rejection?), and her strong and well-made points about how we could all "do" dating better.We also dig into the wildest event she's said yes to (hint: 250 people were watching); what happened on her fourth lap around a park after 3 failed attempts to talk to a cute guy walking his dog; and why the little note cards she's been handing out to strangers might be the most old-school-meets-radical dating move going right now.And a distinction we both come back to: the difference between dominating, being passive, and leading (and why "leading" is the one that actually works).Work with usReady to go deeper than the podcast and take action?

This week's conversation dives deep with the unstoppable Debora Masterson—a dancer‑turned‑bassist, singer, producer, educator, and author of the newly released novel Freedom Quest.From her early days twirling in ballet classes and learning French, to a formative stint dancing with legends like Sammy Davis Jr., Debora's journey is a tapestry of triumphs and setbacks.

https://teachhoops.com/ What makes a team memorable long after the final buzzer? In this episode, Coach Collins takes a deep dive into one of the most important leadership questions in coaching: is winning enough, or does a truly lasting program have to mean more than the scoreboard? This episode explores the idea that the teams people remember most are not always the teams that won the championship. Often, they are the teams that made people feel something. They played with joy, grit, togetherness, resilience, and identity. They reflected the values of their school, their town, and their community in a way that gave people something to connect with beyond the result. Coach Collins breaks down why so many coaches are trained to measure success only through wins, losses, trophies, and headlines, but why that view is incomplete. Winning matters. Standards matter. Competing matters. But if a team wins and never truly connects with the people around it, the memory fades much faster. The programs that last are the ones that represent something bigger than themselves and give people a reason to feel proud to claim them. This episode also gives practical leadership takeaways for building that kind of team. Coach Collins talks about the importance of knowing what your community values, building an identity beyond X's and O's, letting the human side of your team be seen, leading the way in community presence, and making success feel shared instead of isolated. These are not branding tricks. They are culture decisions that shape how a team is experienced, remembered, and talked about. If you are a coach thinking about program identity, culture, leadership, and legacy, this episode is for you. It is a reminder that there is a higher ceiling than winning. The teams that stay alive in people's memories are the ones that leave a feeling behind. They make their community proud. They represent something real. And that kind of resonance lasts longer than any single season record ever will. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

"Is your dick going to be synced to porn?"That's not hypothetical — it's already on the market. Here, intimacy expert Susan Bratton walks me through "weird" phenomena at the frontier of sex tech and AI, including synchronized strokers, tele-dildonics (I'll bet that's a word you've never come across before), role-player game (RPG) worlds where you can get down and dirty with an Aztec warrior woman, and adaptive AI that learns what gets you off and gives you more of it.But where does this genuinely help? And where can it quietly wreck your dopamine system and/or real-world relationships? We delve into all of it, including the exact device suite that Susan and her boyfriend use for long-distance sex. Imagine being thousands of miles apart, still having synchronized orgasms on video. (I did not expect the "hard-boiled egg" comparison, but you'll get it once you hear it.)Plus:How a woman can regnerate her vaginal tissue (YES, this helps if she's dry after/during perimenopause/menopause)The 96% statistic about what most porn is actually showing youThe ancient technique that separates orgasm from ejaculationWhy penis pumps are not the cheesy novelty you think they areAnd a fundamental truth that Susan and I agree on: The best sex tech in the world means nothing without the communication skills underneath it.

Till He Come brings together some of Charles H. Spurgeon's most tender and spiritually searching meditations on the Lord's Supper. Drawn from addresses delivered at the Metropolitan Tabernacle and also in smaller gatherings around the communion table, these messages invite believers to linger and renew their love and devotion for Christ in remembrance of His atoning sacrifice. Spurgeon leads readers into the heart of Christian communion – reflecting on Christ's love, His finished work, and the believers' fellowship with Him “until the day breaks and the shadows flee away.” Whether speaking of resting under the shadow of the Almighty, our Lord's loveliness, or the redemption we have because of His selfless sacrifice, Spurgeon masterfully expounds on the endless depth and breadth of Christ's love and character as displayed through His broken body and poured-out blood. These short sermons are especially suited for personal devotion, preparation for the Lord's Table, or for those entrusted with leading others in communion. Reverent, Christ-centered, and moving, Till He Come stands as one of Spurgeon's most precious devotional works – calling believers to remember their Savior, cherish His presence, and proclaim His death and resurrection until the day He returns for His chosen. About the Author Charles Haddon (C. H.) Spurgeon (1834-1892) was a British Baptist preacher. He started preaching at age 16 and quickly became famous.

Hershey has a name for the economy we've been describing all year: Treatonomics, "a consumer trend in which people prioritize joyful, memorable experiences and generosity over simply chasing the lowest price." Guests are still spending on Halloween, and they're looking for memorable experiences to connect with, even if it costs a little more. Case in point: eight dates of Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, a family trick-or-treat party that is practically the definition of Treatonomics, sold out before the event even opened.Meanwhile, all the major theme parks now have at least one IP-based haunt, with Sony landing at all five Howl-O-Scream parks, Jason coming to three Six Flags parks, and Ozzy completing the HHN 35 lineup. But when every major event is licensed, there's a market in the zag: Netherworld marked its 30th season by going deeper into its own mythology, and original is about to become the differentiator.In this issue:- Hershey's State of the Season Report: Welcome to Treatonomics- Ozzy Osbourne: Prince of Darkness Completes the HHN 35 Lineup- Sony Licenses Land at All Five Howl-O-Scream Parks- Jason: Blood Reign Coming to Three Six Flags Parks- Jackson Wang Is Building a Haunted House at Ocean Park- Netherworld Announces Its 30th Season of Screams- Spirit Halloween Moved Into 85 Former Party City Stores- Retail Roundup: Michael Myers, Beistle, Johanna Parker, Grandin Road, Buc-ee's, Pottery Barn, Funko, Disney Store, and Hobby Lobby's Missing Halloweenhttps://mailchi.mp/hauntedattractionnetwork.com/treatonomics-guests-want-memorable-not-cheap

Most people don't have a skills problem. They have a memory problem.. no one remembers them. So why is it you can say all the right things and still be forgettable? Because people don't store information, they store feelings. Think about the last person you met. You probably don't remember what they said. But you remember how they made you feel. In this episode, we break down the psychology of first impressions and why “telling” people your strengths quietly fails. Instead, you'll learn how to show who you are through small, repeatable actions. Not big performances. Just consistent signals. Like giving someone the better slice of cake, or telling a story that lands. Memorable people aren't louder, they're clearer: Replace claims with proof: show traits in action, don't describe them Turn everyday moments into simple, emotional stories Make people feel something specific when they're around you If you want to stop being overlooked, this episode will change how you show up.

When it comes to African wildlife photography, Shem Compion has done just about everything. He is an award-winning photographer, naturalist, author, and pioneering hide builder who has spent more than 25 years exploring and photographing the wild landscapes of Africa. He is also a professional photo guide where he helps photographers experience Africa with the timing, access and creative guidance needed to come home with something truly special.In this episode, Shem and I dig into what separates a technically good wildlife photograph from one that stops people in their tracks. For Shem, much of it comes down to combining emotion with narrative. A photograph should make the viewer feel something, but it should also tell us where the animal lives, what it is doing and why that particular moment matters.We also explore the enormous value of photographic guides, the temptation to photograph every animal you encounter on safari and why harsh midday light is rarely your friend. Shem shares the fascinating story behind the underground photography hides at Mashatu Game Reserve, including the new overnight hide that functions almost like a wildlife photography studio, complete with controlled lighting, beds and, crucially, a coffee machine.From there, our conversation expands into visual storytelling, conservation photography, building a lasting body of work and organizing your image library so you can actually find those photographs 15 years from now. Shem also walks us through his current Nikon kit, his relatively light-handed approach to editing and the advice he wishes he could give his younger self: take more photographs, especially of the people, experiences and behind-the-scenes moments that make a journey memorable.Links and Resources MentionedLearn More About Shem...Shem Images — Shem's photography, books, portfolio and backgroundShem Images on InstagramC4 Photo Safaris — Shem's specialist African photography safari companyThe Rift: Scar of Africa — Shem's long-form photography project documenting Africa's Great Rift ValleyPurchase The RiftPhotography Hides and Safari ExperiencesPhotoMashatu — Photographic experiences at Mashatu Game ReserveMashatu's Underground and Overnight Hides — Information about the ground-level Matebole Hide and Lala Limpopo Sleep-Out HideC4 Photo Safaris at MashatuConservation PhotographyWildscreen ARK — Wildscreen's nature education and visual storytelling platformThe ARKive Legacy — The original conservation image library referenced during the conversation.

What happens when the pursuit of perfection becomes a way to escape pain? In this deeply personal conversation, marriage proposal planner and photographer Ash Fox shares her journey through anorexia, bulimia, body image struggles, and the emotional wounds that fueled them. She opens up about growing up in a family where dieting and body shame spanned generations, how the fashion industry reinforced unhealthy beliefs, and the courage it took to begin healing. Ash explains how recovery wasn't about finding another diet; it was about finding purpose, healthy relationships, and learning to release the need for control. Together, Leslie and Ash explore how boundaries, trauma, self-worth, and emotional regulation are often the hidden drivers behind food and weight struggles, and why lasting freedom comes from addressing the deeper emotional patterns rather than the symptoms. The episode also highlights the transformative power of self-love, meaningful work, meditation, and supportive relationships. Whether you're battling food obsession, healing from past experiences, or searching for a more peaceful relationship with yourself, this conversation offers hope that true healing is possible. Highlighted Quote "What we're really chasing isn't the weight loss it's the dopamine, the feeling of control. Real healing begins when we learn to feel our emotions instead of controlling them."

Transcript:Nl: Onder de warme zomerzon fietsten Bram en Anouk door het weidse, groene landschap van de Nederlandse platteland.En: Under the warm summer sun, Bram and Anouk cycled through the wide, green landscape of the Dutch countryside.Nl: De lucht was helderblauw en het geluid van zingende vogels vulde de ochtend.En: The sky was bright blue, and the sound of singing birds filled the morning.Nl: Hun doel was een ontspannen dagtocht door deze prachtige streek, weg van de drukte van de stad.En: Their goal was a relaxing day trip through this beautiful area, away from the hustle and bustle of the city.Nl: Bram verheugde zich op avontuur, terwijl Anouk, zoals altijd, goed voorbereid was met een rugzak vol onverwachte benodigdheden.En: Bram looked forward to the adventure, while Anouk, as always, was well-prepared with a backpack full of unexpected necessities.Nl: Ze stopten even langs een veld vol felgekleurde klaprozen.En: They stopped for a moment by a field full of brightly colored poppies.Nl: "Kijk eens hoe mooi," zei Anouk glimlachend, terwijl ze een paar foto's maakten.En: "Look how beautiful," Anouk said, smiling, while they took a few pictures.Nl: Bram genoot, maar hij probeerde een kleine ongerustheid over zijn gezondheid, die hij al dagen verborgen hield, van zich af te zetten.En: Bram enjoyed it but tried to put aside a slight worry about his health, which he had been hiding for days.Nl: Alles leek perfect, totdat Bram plotseling begon te hoesten en te niezen.En: Everything seemed perfect until Bram suddenly started coughing and sneezing.Nl: "Wat is er aan de hand, Bram?"En: "What's wrong, Bram?"Nl: vroeg Anouk ongerust, toen ze hem zag worstelen met zijn ademhaling.En: asked Anouk worriedly, as she saw him struggling with his breathing.Nl: Ze keek snel in haar tas en haalde de medicijnen tevoorschijn die ze altijd bij zich had voor noodgevallen.En: She quickly looked in her bag and pulled out the medicine she always carried for emergencies.Nl: Ze waren ver weg van de dichtstbijzijnde stad, omringd door uitgestapelde hooibalen en plattelandswegen die oneindig leken.En: They were far from the nearest city, surrounded by stacks of hay bales and endless country roads.Nl: "Het gaat wel," mompelde Bram toen hij een pil nam.En: "It'll be fine," murmured Bram as he took a pill.Nl: Hij probeerde luchtig te blijven, bang om de reis te verpesten.En: He tried to stay casual, afraid to ruin the trip.Nl: Maar al snel werd duidelijk dat de medicijnen niet werkten.En: But it soon became clear that the medicine wasn't working.Nl: Zijn ogen werden rood en zijn ademhaling moeilijker.En: His eyes turned red and his breathing became more difficult.Nl: "We moeten naar een kliniek," zei Anouk beslist.En: "We need to get to a clinic," said Anouk decisively.Nl: Met zijn laatste krachten fietste Bram zo snel mogelijk, terwijl Anouk aan zijn zijde bleef, hem aanmoedigend maar ook bezorgd.En: With his last bit of strength, Bram cycled as fast as he could while Anouk stayed by his side, encouraging but also concerned.Nl: Na wat een eeuwigheid leek, in hun haastige tocht door schilderachtige dorpjes en langs wuivende rietplanten, zagen ze eindelijk een klein gezondheidscentrum.En: After what seemed like eternity, during their hurried journey through picturesque villages and past waving reed plants, they finally saw a small health center.Nl: Bij de kliniek stormde Anouk naar binnen en vertelde de situatie aan de verpleegkundige.En: At the clinic, Anouk rushed inside and explained the situation to the nurse.Nl: Ze reageerden snel en na een paar spannende momenten begon Bram's ademhaling te kalmeren.En: They responded quickly, and after a few tense moments, Bram's breathing began to calm.Nl: De paniek verdween geleidelijk uit zijn ogen.En: The panic gradually disappeared from his eyes.Nl: Toen ze later op een bankje voor de kliniek zaten, met een verkoelend drankje in hun hand, glimlachte Bram zwakjes naar Anouk.En: Later, as they sat on a bench in front of the clinic, with a refreshing drink in their hand, Bram weakly smiled at Anouk.Nl: "Dank je," zei hij oprecht.En: "Thank you," he said sincerely.Nl: "Ik zal beter voor mezelf zorgen."En: "I will take better care of myself."Nl: Hij realiseerde zich hoe belangrijk zijn gezondheid was en waardeerde Anouk's zorgvuldigheid meer dan ooit.En: He realized how important his health was and appreciated Anouk's carefulness more than ever.Nl: Met hernieuwde energie en een belangrijke les leenden ze hun fietsen van het hek en reden langzaam terug naar huis.En: With renewed energy and an important lesson learned, they picked up their bikes from the gate and rode slowly back home.Nl: Het avontuur mag dan anders zijn verlopen dan gepland, maar het was zeker eentje dat Bram nooit zou vergeten.En: The adventure may have gone differently than planned, but it was certainly one that Bram would never forget.

There's a photo on Tim Ireland's Google Scholar profile of a toddler standing on the floor of an open pit gold mine in Australia's Northern Territory, wearing a hard hat and — because it was the early 1980s — flip flops. That toddler is now the Principal Geologist for Exploration at **First Quantum Minerals**, one of the world's major copper producers, and in this episode Jesse sits down with him to talk about how mineral exploration actually works.Tim grew up with two geologist fathers, but the path in wasn't as direct as it sounds. He took a gap year as a field technician and mostly hated it. He considered leaving to design jewelry. He turned down a PhD because being told he'd become "one of the world experts on sedimentary rock–hosted zinc" sounded uncomfortably narrow — then spent a few years alone in the desert with a drill rig and 22,000 square kilometers of ground before the university called back with something better.From there we get into the machinery of exploration. Tim describes the job as **reducing search space** — starting with a continent and narrowing until you're willing to spend real money drilling — and why that philosophy holds whether you're chasing porphyry copper in Chile, sediment-hosted copper in the DRC, or orthomagmatic nickel in Finland. We also get into the part they don't teach in a mineral deposits course: three or four people weighing in over email on whether to spend millions on relatively scant information, and why what a company really pays a principal geologist for is a **calibrated gut**.The scientific heart of the episode is what Tim calls the **quality question**. Deposit models are good at telling a geologist whether they're getting warmer. They're not good at telling you whether the thing you're walking toward will ever be a mine — and the industry is full of "technical successes" nobody publishes, where the geologist did the job right and the deposit simply wasn't good enough. We also cover critical minerals and why the West is late (Tim was in the room in Oslo in 2007 when China announced the plan out loud), the 22-year lag from discovery to production, and why he's skeptical of AI prospectivity tools — if there are only ten porphyry deposits on Earth with more than a hundred million tons of contained copper, that's not a training set.It closes with Tim's best day as a geologist: alone in a gorge in the northern Chilean desert, a ten-mile traverse, a spire of rock he probably shouldn't have climbed, and one outcrop that put his hand on a fault he'd only been able to argue about on paper.In this episode- The Google Scholar baby photo — hard hat, flip flops, floor of an open pit- A gap year he didn't enjoy, and the jewelry business that never happened- Why he turned down a PhD on sedimentary zinc — and what he asked for instead- Industry-funded research: "cut-price consultants," or the best training pipeline there is?- Reducing search space: the one philosophy that holds across every deposit type- Spending millions on scant information, and what a calibrated gut is worth- Critical minerals, the 2007 Oslo warning, and who's still in denial- 22 years from discovery to production — and why averages lie- The quality question: why our models can't tell a mine from a "technical success"- AI in exploration: the useful camp, the black-box camp, and why ten deposits isn't a training set- Big company vs. junior — kudos versus shares, and the trade-off nobody spells out- Tim's best day as a geologist, alone in a Chilean gorgeAbout the guestDr. Tim Ireland is Principal Geologist for Exploration at First Quantum Minerals, a global copper-focused mining company. He trained at the University of Tasmania, with an honors project on the MacArthur River zinc deposit and a PhD on porphyry copper systems in northern Chile. His career has run through Newmont in Turkey, a junior working sediment-hosted copper in the DRC, and thirteen years at First Quantum.Memorable quotes- "If it were mathematical and there was a definite yes/no answer, we wouldn't be needed."- "You still have to do the work. You can't just sit at your desk and think about the model."- "If you've only got ten porphyry deposits in the world with more than a hundred million tons of contained copper, ten's not a great enough training set."- "I'm still kind of hanging out for that day that I walk up a hill and crack the first rock."Download the CampGeo app now at this link.

Every beekeeper remembers a few stings that stand out above all the rest. This week on Honey Bee Obscura, Dr. Jim Tew and Anne Frey share some of their most memorable experiences with honey bee stings—stories that range from painful to humorous, but all serve as reminders that working with bees always deserves respect. Jim recounts the unforgettable moment when a single bee flew directly into his nostril during an educational demonstration, producing one of the most painful stings of his career. Anne follows with stories of dramatic facial swelling after venturing into the apiary without a veil and discusses how even experienced beekeepers occasionally become a little too confident around their colonies. Together they explain why these memorable incidents are unusual rather than typical, offering reassurance that most bee stings are minor annoyances for experienced beekeepers. They also discuss practical topics including choosing loose-fitting protective clothing, why baggy bee suits reduce the severity of stings, staying hydrated during summer inspections, and avoiding unnecessary risks in the apiary. The episode also highlights how experience teaches humility. Even after decades of working bees, both Jim and Anne emphasize that honey bees deserve respect every time a hive is opened. If you've ever had a sting you'll never forget—or simply want to hear two experienced beekeepers share entertaining stories from years in the apiary—you'll enjoy this week's conversation. ______________________ Thanks to Betterbee for sponsoring today's episode.
