When is a concert film not a concert film?It's an existential question that's particularly fitting for this episode, as we focus on a movie that is literally about death. And also new-wave-slash-electronic-music legends Depeche Mode.The unfortunate intersection between those two subjects is the death of the band's keyboardist, Andy Fletcher, in 2022 and subsequent release of 2023 album Memento Mori. During that difficult time, remaining members Dave Gahan and Martin Gore went on tour to support the record and invited Mexican director to Fernando Frias capture their performances in Mexico City in September of 2023.Combining the footage with "interpretive interstitials and archival material," Frias delved into his culture's relationship with death and came away with Depeche Mode: M. On this episode, Kpolly leads our own delving with a specialized crew representing the two major sides of the movie: On the music front, we called in 88Nine program director, DJ-about-town and big Depeche Mode fan Kenny Perez. To reinforce our cinematic cred, we got 88Nine on-air personality and multidisciplinary artist (with an emphasis on film) Paula Lovo. You'll hear what all three of them had to say about the documentary, how well it connected to the culture and whether it'll hit with people not quite as familiar with the band (like Paula). Plus, there's a quick detour into favorite concert films, first movies and — perhaps in response to all the death talk — laugh-out-loud comedies.#####Cinebuds is sponsored by Joe Wilde Garage Door Company.

When the godfather Miguel Ángel Félix Gallardo got busted in '89, he divvied up his empire from a prison cell and handed the coveted Tijuana plaza to the Arellano Felix Brothers, who transformed it into one of the most violent drug organizations in Mexico. At their peak, the brothers, led by Benjamin, were pumping an estimated 40 percent of America's cocaine through their border kingdom recruiting both rich kids from elite Tijuana families and gangbangers from the states as sicarios. But when psychotic enforcer Ramón tried to take out El Chapo at the Guadalajara airport in '93, his gunmen accidentally murdered a Catholic cardinal instead, bringing the full heat of Mexican and U.S. law enforcement down on the family and signaling the beginning of the end for the infamous Tijuana cartel.

This week we talk about OxyContin, opium, and the British East India Company.We also discuss isotonitazene, fentanyl, and Perdue.Recommended Book: The Thinking Machine by Stephen WittTranscriptOpioids have been used as painkillers by humans since at least the Neolithic period; there's evidence that people living in the Iberian and Italian Peninsulas kept opium poppy seeds with them, and there's even more evidence that the Ancient Greeks were big fans of opium, using it to treat pain and as a sleep aid.Opium was the only available opioid for most of human history, and it was almost always considered to be a net-positive, despite its downsides. It was incorporated into a mixture called laudanum, which was a blend of opium and alcohol, in the 17th century, and that helped it spread globally as Europeans spread globally, though it was also in use locally, elsewhere, especially in regions where the opium poppy grew naturally.In India, for instance, opium was grown and often used for its painkilling properties, but when the British East India Company took over, they decided to double-down on the substance as a product they could monopolize and grow into a globe-spanning enterprise.They went to great lengths to expand production and prevent the rise of potential competitors, in India and elsewhere, and they created new markets for opium in China by forcing the product onto Chinese markets, initially via smuggling, and then eventually, after fighting a series of wars focused on whether or not the British should be allowed to sell opium on the Chinese market, the British defeated the Chinese. And among other severely unbalanced new treaties, including the ceding of the Kowloon peninsula to the British as part of Hong Kong, which they controlled as a trading port, and the legalization of Christians coming into the country, proselytizing, and owning property, the Chinese were forced to accept the opium trade. This led to generations of addicts, even more so than before, when opium was available only illicitly, and it became a major bone of contention between the two countries, and informed China's relationship with the world in general, especially other Europeans and the US, moving forward.A little bit later, in the early 1800s, a German pharmacist was able to isolate a substance called morphine from opium. He published a paper on this process in 1817, and in addition to this being the first alkaloid, the first organic compound of this kind to be isolated from a medicinal plant, which was a milestone in the development of modern drug discovery, it also marked the arrival of a new seeming wonder drug, that could ease pain, but also help control cold-related symptoms like coughing and gut issues, like diarrhea. Like many such substances back in the day, it was also often used to treat women who were demonstrating ‘nervous character,' which was code for ‘behaving in ways men didn't like or understand.'Initially, it was thought that, unlike with opium, morphine wasn't addictive. And this thinking was premised on the novel application method often used for morphine, the hypermedia needle, which arrived a half-century after that early 1800s isolation of morphine from opium, but which became a major driver of the new drug's success and utility. Such drugs, derived scientifically rather than just processing a plant, could be administered at specific, controllable doses. So surely, it was thought, this would alleviate those pesky addictive symptoms that many people experienced when using opioids in a more natural, less science-y way.That, of course, turned out not to be the case. But it didn't stop the progression of this drug type, and the further development of more derivations of it, including powerful synthetic opioids, which first hit the scene in the mid-20th century.What I'd like to talk about today is the recent wave of opioid addictions, especially but not exclusively in the US, and the newest concern in this space, which is massively more powerful than anything that's come before.—As I mentioned, there have been surges in opioid use, latent and externally forced, throughout modern human history.The Chinese saw an intense wave of opioid addiction after the British forced opium onto their markets, to the point that there was a commonly held belief that the British were trying to overthrow and enslave the Chinese by weighing them down with so many addicts who were incapable of doing much of anything; which, while not backed by the documentation we have from the era—it seems like they were just chasing profits—is not impossible, given what the Brits were up to around the world at that point in history.That said, there was a huge influx in opioid use in the late-1980s, when a US-based company called Purdue Pharma began producing and pushing a time-released opioid medication, which really hit the big-time in 1995, when they released a version of the drug called OxyContin.OxyContin flooded the market, in part because it promised to help prevent addiction and accidental overdose, and in part because Purdue was just really, really good at marketing it; among other questionable and outright illegal things it did as part of that marketing push, it gave kickbacks to doctors who prescribed it, and some doctors did so, a lot, even when patients didn't need it, or were clearly becoming addicted.By the early 2000s, Purdue, and the Sackler family that owned the company, was spending hundreds of millions of dollars a year to push this drug, and they were making billions a year in sales.Eventually the nature of Purdue's efforts came to light, there were a bunch of trials and other legal hearings, some investigative journalists exposed Purdue's foreknowledge of their drug's flaws, and there was a big government investigation and some major lawsuits that caused the collapse of the company in 2019—though they rebranded in 2021, becoming Knoa Pharma.All of which is interesting because much like the forced legalization of opium on Chinese markets led to their opioid crisis a long time ago, the arrival of this incredibly, artificially popular drug on the US market led to the US's opioid crisis.The current bogeyman in the world of opioids—and I say current because this is a fast-moving space, with new, increasingly powerful or in some cases just a lot cheaper drugs arriving on the scene all the time—is fentanyl, which is a synthetic opioid that's about 30-50 times more potent than heroin, and about 100 times as potent as morphine. It has been traditionally used in the treatment of cancer patients and as a sedative, and because of how powerful it is, a very small amount serves to achieve the desired, painkilling effect.But just like other opioids, its administration can lead to addiction, people who use it can become dependent and need more and more of it to get the same effects, and people who have too much of it can experience adverse effects, including, eventually, death.This drug has been in use since the 1960s, but illicit use of fentanyl began back in the mid-1970s, initially as its own thing, but eventually to be mixed in with other drugs, like heroin, especially low-quality versions of those drugs, because a very small amount of fentanyl can have an incredibly large and potent effect, making those other drugs seem higher quality than they are.That utility is also this drug's major issue, though: it's so potent that a small amount of it can kill, and even people with high opioid tolerances can see those tolerances pushed up and up and up until they eventually take a too-large, killing dose.There have been numerous efforts to control the flow of fentanyl into the US, and beginning in the mid-20-teens, there were high-profile seizures of the illicitly produced stuff around the country. As of mid-2025, China seems to be the primary source of most illicit fentanyl around the world, the drug precursor produced in China, shipped to Mexico where it's finalized and made ready for market, and then smuggled into the US.There have been efforts to shut down this supply chain, including recent tariffs put on Chinese goods, ostensibly, in part at least, to get China to handle those precursor suppliers.Even if that effort eventually bears fruit, though, India seems to have recently become an alternative source of those precursors for Mexican drug cartels, and for several years they've been creating new markets for their output in other countries, like Nigeria, Indonesia, and the Netherlands, as well.Amidst all that, a new synthetic drug, which is 40-times as potent as fentanyl, is starting to arrive in the US, Europe, and Australia, and has already been blamed for thousands of deaths—and it's thought that that number might be a significant undercount, because of how difficult it can be to attribute cause with these sorts of drugs.Nitazenes were originally synthesized back in the 1950s in Austria, and they were never sold as painkillers because they were known, from the get-go, to be too addictive, and to have a bad tradeoff ratio: a little bit of benefit, but a high likelihood of respiratory depression, which is a common cause of death for opioid addicts, or those who accidentally overdose on an opioid.One nitazene, called isotonitazene, first showed up on US drug enforcement agency radars back in 2019, when a shipment was intercepted in the Midwest. Other agencies noted the same across the US and Europe in subsequent years, and this class of drugs has now become widespread in these areas, and in Australia.It's thought that nitazenes might be seeing a surge in popularity with illicit drugmakers because their potency can be amped up so far, way, way higher than even fentanyl, and because their effects are similar in many ways to heroin.They can also use them they way they use fentanyl, a tiny bit blended into lower-quality versions of other drugs, like cocaine, which can save money while also getting their customers, who may not know what they're buying, hooked, faster. For context, a fifth of a grain of nitazene salt can be enough to kill a person, so it doesn't take much, less than that, if they want to keep their customers alive, to achieve the high they're looking for. A little bit goes a long, long way.This class of drugs is also difficult to detect, which might be part of the appeal for drug makers, right now. Tests that detect morphine, heroin, and fentanyl do not detect natazines, and the precursors for this type of drug, and the drugs themselves, are less likely to be closely watched, or even legally controlled at the levels of more popular opioids, which is also likely appealing to groups looking to get around existing clampdown efforts.Right now, drug agencies are in the process of updating their enforcement and detection infrastructure, and word is slowly getting out about nitazenes and the risk they potentially pose. But it took years for sluggish government agencies to start working on the issue of fentanyl, which still hasn't been handled, so it's anyone's guess as to when and if the influx of nitazenes will be addressed on scale.Show Noteshttps://www.wired.com/story/a-new-type-of-opioid-is-killing-people-in-the-us-europe-and-australia/https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/BF02161116https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanpub/article/PIIS2468-2667(24)00024-0/fulltexthttps://www.theguardian.com/society/2025/nov/03/nitazenes-synthetic-opioid-drug-500-times-stronger-than-heroin-fatalhttps://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-025-03280-5https://theconversation.com/10-times-stronger-than-fentanyl-nitazenes-are-the-latest-deadly-development-in-the-synthetic-opioid-crisis-265882https://www.cato.org/blog/fentanyl-nitazenes-why-drug-war-keeps-making-danger-worsehttps://www.cfr.org/backgrounder/fentanyl-and-us-opioid-epidemichttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purdue_Pharmahttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxycodonehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fentanylhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitazeneshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opioidhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_the_opioid_epidemichttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opioid_epidemic This is a public episode.

Are you enjoying this? Are you not? Tell us what to do more of, and what you'd like to hear less of. The Reykjavík Grapevine's Iceland Roundup brings you the top news with a healthy dash of local views. In this episode, Grapevine publisher Jón Trausti Sigurðarson is joined by Heimildin journalist Aðalsteinn Kjartansson, and Grapevine friend and contributor Sindri Eldon to roundup the stories making headlines in recent weeks. On the docket this week are: Iceland Airwaves 2025Iceland Airwaves 2025 took place last weekend with hundreds of artist performing over three day in 8 venues in downtown Reykjavík. The Reykjavík Grapevine reviewed every single show. Check out the coverage on our website. Time DelayOur neighbors in Greenland are changing their clock in order for people to squeeze more sunlight out of the day. This has woken up the discussion in Iceland from a sleep of some years. Should we move the clock, or not?SARS And RacismIceland's SARS have been doing their annual fundraising rounds of selling the so called “Neyðarkall” or “Emergency man”. This year the man of emergency brown of color, in memory of one Sigurður Kristofer, who tragically suffered a fatal accident last year, while training with SARS. This has sparked some negative discussions, or at least according to the father of one 19 year old SARS volunteer. Otherwise no report of people complaining about the color of the man of emergency have been reported, but this seems to have sparked enough outrage that the man of emergency has been selling like never before.Berm-in Out The Private Sector,Iceland's minister of finance, discussed the idea that perhaps the privately owned energy company HS Okra, who's Svartsengi powerplant has been saved fro lava by very expensive efforts of building berms, paid for by the State, should share in the costs. The CEO of HS Orka has found this suggestion to be “surprising”.

There is a mysticism that covers Latin America. Stories of monsters, spirits, and tales of dark family secrets. Sure, it sounds like a telenovela, but literature calls it Gothic: tales that frighten and force us to confront our fears. Now, Mexican filmmaker Guillermo del Toro has reimagined the classic gothic story “Frankenstein.” But this time with a Latin American twist. Del Toro’s adaptation features catholic imagery, long stares into the camera, and Guatemalan-born Hollywood superstar Oscar Isaac. Oscar gets into the film, the state of the country, and why he dropped Hernandez from his stage name. Latino USA is the longest-running news and culture radio program in the U.S., centering Latino stories and hosted by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Maria Hinojosa.

Peso Pluma BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Peso Pluma has dominated headlines and social media this past week, making waves both musically and culturally. Fresh off a high-profile performance at ComplexCon Las Vegas 2025, one of the top stories is his collaboration with GAS Trading Cards and ComplexCon, producing a specially designed collector's item featuring Peso Pluma himself. This exclusive trading card, described by Complex as a way for fans to “own a piece of that moment,” comes in various collectible editions with some containing rare gold foil and personal autographs. The card rollout caught intense buzz, with Complex noting Peso's role in “redefining regional Mexican music for a new generation.” The collectible trend further cements his status as not just a star performer but a cross-media influencer courted by lifestyle and branding ventures.On the live scene, Peso Pluma played a major role at this year's ComplexCon, while also being included in upcoming top-level shows at venues like Resorts World Theatre in Las Vegas, a clear testament to his staying power as a touring force, with box office demand that rivals global superstars according to venue announcements. Social media lit up after his appearance, with fans and critics praising his on-stage charisma and genre-busting collaborations. This hype fueled real-world fan activity too, as LAist reported on a Peso Pluma lookalike contest that drew hundreds to Echo Park in Los Angeles, a testament to his outsized cultural footprint. The community event showcased just how quickly Peso Pluma's persona and style have become iconic, inspiring both adoration and playful imitation.Romantically, Peso's personal life is again a topic of interest, especially after WECB Urban and other outlets confirmed he and Kenia Os are now very publicly a couple, sharing affection and music clips across TikTok and Instagram. Their displays—smiles, pet names, and candid moments—have delighted fans and fueled a new round of “couple of the year” predictions online. This follows the much publicized end of his relationship with Nicki Nicole earlier this year, a breakup that itself earned major coverage from People and other international media.However, Peso also continues to navigate the complexities that come with stardom in regional Mexican music. Rolling Stone pointed out ongoing cartel threats to major regional stars including Peso Pluma—a sobering reminder of the realities many artists in the genre face. Authorities in Baja California are reportedly monitoring these threats closely, but Peso Pluma's continued prominence and resilience amidst these concerns only add to his mythos.At a time when Latin artists are drawing global attention, Peso Pluma's multifaceted presence—from music, branding, and public life to social media chatter—both reflects and propels the movement. Headlines this week are flooding the feed with tales of his success, style, and staying power, marking him as one of the most significant Latino cultural figures in the world right now.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI
Episode 113 Katherine 'Kat' Hammontre April, 2019 was a tough month for 68 year old Katherine 'Kat' Hammontre. She had battled liver Cancer, but eventually decided not to seek treatment for it, and to face what came on her own terms. She was looking forward to her one year anniversary with her husband Warren Sundquist and enjoying the life she was living in San Felipe, Baja California, Mexico, where she had moved to in the late 1990s. On April 11, Kat along with her husband, and a group of hikers decided to explore the beautiful area of Cañón del Diablo, or Devils Canyon in the Sierra de San Pedro Mártir National Park, near San Felipe in Baja California. Warren and another man stayed down near the entrance to the trail, while Kat and the other hikers made their way up to see the waterfalls. That day, Kat had brought along her dog; Tootsie. On her way up the trail, Kat, who had injured her foot not long before the outing, stopped to rest on her own with Tootsie while the other hikers finished their climb. She planned to meet the group when they came back down. Later, when the group came back down, there was no sign of Kat or Tootsie. When the group made it down to Warren, he was shocked to find his wife was missing. Extensive searches of the area turned up no signs of Kat or Tootsie, and today, she remains missing. Kat's daughter Desiree, who is our guest in this episode, made her way to the area to join the efforts in finding her mom. She desperately wants to know what happened to her mom, and bring her home so that she can give her a proper farewell.

In Becoming Gods: Medical Training in Mexican Hospitals (Rutgers University Press, 2021), Vania Smith-Oka follows a cohort of interns throughout their year of medical training in hospitals to understand how medical students become medical doctors. She ethnographically tracks their engagements with one another, interactions with patients, experiences with doctors, and presentations of cases to show how medical students undergo a nuanced process of accumulating knowledge and practical experience in shaping their medical selves. Smith-Oka illuminates the gendered aspects of this process, whereby the medical interns' gender informs the kind of treatment they receive from other doctors and the kinds of possibilities they imagine for their careers and areas of medical practice. She documents the lives of the interns during which time they develop their medical selves and come to understand the tacit values of medical practice. The book is full of descriptive vignettes and ethnographic details that make it accessible to undergraduate students. It would be of interest to those in medical anthropology, hospital ethnography, medical education as well as people interested in how expertise is acquired and developed. The book examines medical interns' transformations through ordinary and extraordinary moments, through active and passive learning where they not only acquire new knowledge but also new ways of being. Vania Smith-Oka is an associate professor in the Department of Anthropology at the University of Notre Dame in Indiana. She is the Director of the Health, Humanities, and Society Program at the John J. Reilly Center. Reighan Gillam is an assistant professor in the Department of Anthropology at the University of Southern California. Learn more about your ad choices.

Tara dives deep into the intersection of immigration, politics, and economics shaping America today. From New Yorkers fleeing socialist-leaning policies in Palm Beach to the shocking election of a noncitizen mayor in Kansas, this episode exposes how policy decisions ripple through housing, elections, and national security. With a critical look at amnesty, voter verification, and the Fed's rate decisions, Tara unpacks the consequences for everyday Americans and outlines what needs to be done to reclaim control. Politics, policy, and power—what they don't want you to know. NYC exodus, Florida real estate, Mankami, socialism vs capitalism, immigration, illegal voting, Kansas mayor, Joe Ciballos, voter fraud, national citizenship database, Trump administration, Biden policies, amnesty, housing crisis, homeownership collapse, property taxes, home equity firms, deportations, rent inflation, used car prices, Jerome Powell, Fed rates, economic policy, Tara Show Today's episode covers the key events shaping the nation: New York to Florida Exodus: Realtors in Florida are overwhelmed with calls as New Yorkers flee rising taxes and socialist policies under Mayor Mankami, demonstrating the economic and political impact of population shifts. NYC Demographics & Elections: Nearly half of NYC's population is foreign-born, and 20% cannot speak English, influencing local elections. This raises concerns about the future of American cities and the effects of amnesty. Kansas Mayor Scandal: Newly elected Coldwater Mayor Joe Ciballos, a Mexican citizen, faces felony charges for illegal voting and election perjury, highlighting gaps in voter verification and oversight. National Citizenship Database: The Trump-era system is beginning to catch noncitizen voters, countering Biden-era policies that limited voter verification and enabled illegal access to Social Security numbers, including individuals on terror watch lists. Housing & Economic Pressures: Skyrocketing property taxes and home equity firms buying homes are pushing first-time homebuyers out of the market, while deportations of illegal immigrants are starting to affect housing prices and used car markets. Federal Reserve Critique: Jerome Powell's handling of interest rates is discussed as an example of how policy decisions can suppress job growth and economic opportunity. Takeaways & Call to Action: The episode emphasizes nonviolent activism, informed voter engagement, and systemic reform as necessary tools to protect the nation's future.
In this episode, Tara covers a sweeping range of interconnected issues reshaping America: NYC Exodus: Florida realtors are flooded with calls from New Yorkers fleeing high taxes and socialist-leaning policies under Mayor Mankami, demonstrating how political decisions can shift populations and markets overnight. Demographics & Voting: Tara highlights the impact of immigration on elections, citing that nearly 50% of New Yorkers are foreign-born and 20% cannot speak English, influencing voting outcomes in major cities. Kansas Mayor Scandal: Newly elected Coldwater Mayor Joe Ciballos is exposed as a Mexican citizen and illegal voter, now facing multiple felony charges, showcasing gaps in voter verification systems. Trump Database vs. Biden Policies: The episode explains the role of the Trump-era national citizenship database in catching noncitizen voters and the consequences of Biden-era executive orders that limited voter verification, which allowed millions of illegal immigrants access to Social Security numbers and benefits, including thousands on terror watch lists. Housing & Economic Strain: Rising property taxes, home equity firms buying homes, and inflated housing prices have caused first-time homebuyer rates to plummet, pushing the median age of first-time homeowners into the 40s. Deportations of illegal immigrants are beginning to affect housing and used car markets. Federal Reserve & Jobs: Tara critiques Jerome Powell's handling of interest rates, framing him as an “economic arsonist” whose decisions threaten job growth. Takeaway: The episode underscores the urgent need for enforcement of immigration laws, vigilance in election integrity, and awareness of economic policies affecting everyday Americans. The episode concludes with a reflection on nonviolent activism and systemic reform as a means to protect the future of the nation.
When voter rolls fail, who's really running the show? Tara dives into the shocking story of newly elected Kansas mayor Joe Ciballos, who turns out to be a Mexican citizen and not legally eligible to hold office—or even vote in federal elections. Facing multiple felony charges for voting fraud and election perjury, his case exposes gaps in voter verification, the consequences of past executive orders, and the hidden challenges in safeguarding American elections. In this episode, Tara uncovers the extraordinary case of Kansas mayor Joe Ciballos: The Discovery: Coldwater Mayor Joe Ciballos, a Mexican citizen and legal permanent resident, was elected despite being ineligible to vote or hold office in the U.S. Legal Fallout: Ciballos now faces multiple felony charges, including voting without citizenship and election perjury, while federal authorities may pursue further immigration fraud charges. Voter Roll Verification: The case highlights the effectiveness of the Trump-era national citizenship database, which Kansas recently implemented to identify noncitizen voters. Broader Implications: Tara discusses how past executive actions under the Biden administration prevented routine verification of voter rolls against Social Security and Homeland Security databases, allowing millions of noncitizens—including thousands on terror watch lists—to receive Social Security numbers and access programs. Systemic Risks: The episode explores the hidden vulnerabilities in election systems, the influence of “shadow” voters, and the urgency of restoring integrity to elections before future federal, state, and local races. Takeaway: While the Ciballos case is alarming, Tara emphasizes that this discovery shows proactive measures can work—and underscores the importance of vigilance, verification, and accountability in protecting American democracy.

In this delightful episode of "Reading with Your Kids," host Jed Doherty explores two fascinating children's books that go far beyond simple storytelling. First, Leokadia George shares the incredible story of Trumpet, a Mexican gray wolf from the Wolf Conservation Center. Trumpet isn't just any wolf - she's a critically important member of a species that was once down to just seven wolves worldwide. George's book series follows Trumpet's life, highlighting conservation efforts and the importance of protecting endangered species. Her latest book, "Trumpet Becomes a Mom," chronicles Trumpet's journey of motherhood, which was actually captured live on the center's webcams. The second half of the episode features Vanessa Roeder, who introduces her playful book "Narwhal versus Kindergarten." This charming story follows Hugo, a narwhal navigating his first week of kindergarten with a comically inconvenient tusk. What makes the book special is its underlying message of empathy and inclusion. Roeder cleverly includes background stories of other animals struggling in their own ways, teaching children that everyone faces challenges and that working together makes those challenges easier. Both authors share fascinating insights into their creative processes. George was inspired by Trumpet's real-life conservation story, while Roeder began with a simple sketch of a narwhal wearing a necktie. Their conversations reveal how children's books can be powerful tools for teaching complex concepts like wildlife preservation, empathy, and mutual support. The episode is a heartwarming exploration of creativity, compassion, and the magic of storytelling. Whether discussing wolf conservation or a narwhal's kindergarten adventures, these authors demonstrate how children's literature can educate, entertain, and inspire young readers. Listeners are left with a renewed appreciation for the depth and creativity found in modern children's books, and perhaps a newfound curiosity about wolves, narwhals, and the incredible stories waiting to be told.

It's the Ranch It Up Radio Show Herd It Here Weekly Report! A 3-minute look at cattle markets, reports, news info, or anything that has to do with those of us who live at the end of dirt roads. Join Jeff 'Tigger' Erhardt, the Boss Lady Rebecca Wanner aka 'BEC' by subscribing on your favorite podcasting app or on the Ranch It Up Radio Show YouTube Channel. Livestock Marketing Specialist Comments On What Is Next For Cattle & Beef Markets Despite recent volatility, cattle market fundamentals remain unchanged. Supply and demand conditions are the same as they were three weeks ago — but political noise and policy rumors have fueled short-term panic across the beef industry. Beef Imports & Tariff Talk: LImited Real Impact Recent political chatter around increased beef imports from Argentina and reduced tariffs on Brazilian beef has rattled markets, but the actual impact is minimal. Argentina remains an insignificant import source with no effect on U.S. beef prices. Lower tariffs on Brazil might slightly increase processing beef imports, returning the market to pre-August conditions, when lean trimming prices hit record highs. Even with these changes, steak and high-quality beef prices in the U.S. will remain unaffected. Data gaps from the government shutdown make short-term analysis difficult, but fundamentals are steady. USDA's Beef Industry Proposals Offer Long-Term, Not Immediate, Relief The USDA's “Fortify the American Beef Industry” initiative includes regulatory updates, expanded access to grazing lands, and new packing infrastructure. While positive for the future, these measures won't impact cattle supply, demand, or prices in the short term. Even if Mexican cattle imports resume, any market effect will take months to appear, leaving current feeder cattle supplies largely unchanged. China Trade Rumors Could Support Future Prices Talks of a potential U.S.–China trade thaw could eventually boost beef exports. A year ago, China accounted for 15.3% of U.S. beef exports; by July, that share had collapsed to 1.2%. Reopening this market would add significant price support for U.S. cattle producers. So far, record-high domestic prices have masked the loss of the Chinese export channel, but renewed trade would strengthen fundamentals moving forward. Political Volatility Delays Industry Recovery While political developments may bring both risks and opportunities, the net impact remains marginal. The two- to four-year price outlook for cattle and beef is unchanged. However, continued government intervention and political rhetoric add uncertainty — a real cost to producers, consumers, and lenders. This instability will likely slow herd rebuilding efforts, already projected to extend through the end of the decade.

CTL Script/ Top Stories of November 7th Publish Date: November 7th Pre-Roll: From the Ingles Studio Welcome to the Award-Winning Cherokee Tribune Ledger Podcast Today is Friday, November 7th and Happy Birthday to Jim Kaat I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are the stories Cherokee is talking about, presented by Times Journal Cherokee County voters approve sales tax for transportation Paloma brings Mexican flavors to Woodstock’s Adair Park Here's who signed up to run for Georgia House District 23 Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on milk We’ll have all this and more coming up on the Cherokee Tribune-Ledger Podcast, and if you’re looking for Community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe! Commercial: Ingles Markets 1 STORY 1: Cherokee County voters approve sales tax for transportation Cherokee County voters just gave the green light to a 1% sales tax for transportation—T-SPLOST—set to pump $445 million into local roads over six years. The measure passed with 60.4% of the vote, according to unofficial results. That’s 25,132 “yes” votes to 16,479 “no.” Here's Cherokee County Commission Chair Harry Johnston talking about the results: VO Starting April 2026, the tax will fund road widening, bridge replacements, traffic signal upgrades—you name it. The tax bumps Cherokee’s sales tax to 7%, but here’s the kicker: about a third of that revenue comes from non-residents. STORY 2: Paloma brings Mexican flavors to Woodstock’s Adair Park “Everything here—everything—is made from scratch,” says Jason Sheetz, co-owner of Paloma Tequila & Tacos, Woodstock’s newest spot for Mexican food. Open since October in Adair Park, the restaurant even makes its chips and salsa fresh daily. The menu? Familiar favorites like tacos, enchiladas, and fajitas, but with a twist. Almost everything is gluten-free, and Executive Chef Rebeca Delgado brings her own creative flair to dishes like carne asada burritos and tacos de carne asada. Drinks are just as thoughtful. The Paloma Cantarito, served in a ceramic cup, and the jalapeño-pineapple margarita are crowd-pleasers—no premixes, just fresh juices. Paloma is open for dinner now, with lunch service starting Thanksgiving week. And yes, parking is free. STORY 3: Here's who signed up to run for Georgia House District 23 Six candidates are vying for the Georgia House District 23 seat, left vacant after the passing of longtime Representative Mandi Ballinger, who served the Cherokee County area for over a decade before losing her battle with cancer last month. The special election is set for Dec. 9, with five Republicans and one Democrat in the mix: Ann Gazell, a retired educator; Bill Fincher, a former assistant DA; Brice Futch, a firefighter; Raj Sagoo, a consultant; Scott Sanders, an engineer (and the lone Democrat); and William Ware, a retired microbiologist.

Recording date: 4th November 2025The gold mining sector demonstrated extraordinary financial performance in Q3 2025, with gold stabilizing near $4,000 per ounce and silver between $47-49 after a recent $300 pullback. Major producers generated unprecedented free cash flow despite market volatility, positioning the sector for sustained growth.Agnico Eagle Mines produced exceptional results with $3 billion in revenue and 66% gross margins, generating $1.2 billion in free cash flow at all-in sustaining costs of $1,400 per ounce. At current gold prices, this translates to approximately $17-18 million in daily free cash flow. Newmont Corporation similarly posted strong performance with $8 billion in revenue and $1.6 billion in free cash flow from 1.4 million ounces produced.Despite Federal Reserve rate cuts temporarily reducing global liquidity flows, the fundamental investment case for precious metals remains robust. Market weakness may extend through November, but recovery is anticipated approaching December's Fed meeting as monetary debasement trends continue supporting sector strength.M&A activity accelerated significantly with Fresnillo acquiring Probe Gold for $780 million cash, marking the world's largest primary silver producer's expansion into Canadian gold assets. This departure from Mexican operations may signal jurisdiction concerns given limited recent permitting activity. Coeur Mining's acquisition of New Gold demonstrated valuation arbitrage opportunities, with the U.S.-domiciled company leveraging its 50% premium to double operational scale while achieving 40% net accretion.Strategic investments are flowing downstream from major producers to developers and explorers. Gold Fields invested $50 million in Founders Metals targeting Suriname projects, while B2Gold deployed $10 million into Prospector Metals for Yukon exploration. These investments represent modest commitments relative to daily free cash flow generation Agnico's $180 million Perpetua investment equals just ten days of current free cash flow.The preference for cash transactions injects capital directly into specialist mining funds likely to redeploy within the sector, creating a multiplier effect. Development-stage assets trading at 0.4 times net asset value versus full NAV multiples for producers enable immediate accretion through strategic acquisitions.This capital migration down the market capitalization structure from major producers to mid-tier companies, developers, and explorers represents an early-stage phenomenon with substantial additional activity expected as producer profitability compounds at sustained gold prices.Sign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Ep 235 | This week on Discover Ag, Natalie and Tara dig into viral food myths, western nostalgia, and the surprising ways agriculture moves around the globe. From debunking dairy misconceptions about why American milk "expires so fast" to dismantling an Italian chef's garlic myth, the hosts tackle the misinformation swirling through social media kitchens. They explore the unexpected Gen Z revival of the 1985 western epic Lonesome Dove, dive into Coca-Cola's AI-powered mission to save the orange juice industry from citrus greening disease, and unpack the reality behind viral footage of 75,000 sheep boarding a massive cargo ship. It's a journey through pasteurization science, sulfur-induced bad breath, cowboy culture, and the complex world of live animal export—all with the usual mix of education, entertainment, and a few passion fruit margaritas along the way. What We Discovered This Week
