Late one moonless night in rural Mexico, a young couple slipped away together and began walking miles through the darkness toward a new life.Then a glowing ball of fire appeared beside the road.It seemed to launch from the trees, disappear ahead of them, and return again and again as they walked through the night. It never came close. It never seemed to threaten them. But it also didn't seem willing to leave.For decades, the family wondered what had accompanied them that night.Then, more than 60 years later, someone heard their story—and had a startling reaction.#RealGhostStories #Paranormal #Unexplained #StrangeEncounters #UFO #BallLightning #UnexplainedPhenomena #TrueStories #Mystery #HighStrangenessLove real ghost stories?

More than four years after Russia launched its full scale invasion of Ukraine in February, 2022, the war continues to shape almost every aspect of life in both countries, including the challenge of finding enough people to serve on the front line. In Ukraine, videos showing violent confrontations between recruitment officers and members of the public have sparked angry debate about how the country's draught system is working. In Russia meanwhile, the authorities have tightened conscription rules and introduced new digital tools aimed at successfully recruiting more young Russians. With BBC Monitoring's Vitaly Shevchenko and BBC Russian's Yaroslava Kiryukhina. A new kind of spirit, very similar to tequila, is gaining popularity across India, thanks to the unassuming-looking agave plant. Unlike in Mexico, where agave is grown on a commercial scale for tequila production, in India, it grows wild and until recently, its only use was for farmers to make fences from its thorny trunk. But it is slowly transforming the lives of farmers across the country, as Priti Gupta, reporting for BBC Gujarati, has been finding out.This episode of The Documentary comes to you from The Fifth Floor, the show at the heart of global storytelling, with BBC journalists from all around the world. Presented by Faranak Amidi. Produced by Laura Thomas, Caroline Ferguson and Hannah Dean.
Jan Francke: Scanning the Ancient World, with Ground Penetrating RadarWhat lies beneath some of the world's most mysterious ancient sites?Dr. Jan Francke has spent more than three decades working with ground-penetrating radar (GPR) and developing technologies capable of imaging structures, geological formations, tunnels, voids, and other features hidden beneath the Earth's surface.In this episode of Earth Ancients, Jan joins Cliff Dunning to discuss the science behind GPR and its growing role in archaeology. The conversation explores radar investigations at ancient sites, including work around the Giza Plateau and Great Pyramid, as well as projects in Mexico, the Middle East, Australia, and other parts of the world.Jan also explains an important problem surrounding ground-penetrating radar: while GPR can produce remarkable results under the right conditions, the technology can easily be misunderstood, misused, or overinterpreted. What can radar actually see underground? How deep can it penetrate? What creates an anomaly? And when does an intriguing radar image become credible evidence for a buried structure?Jan Francke is the founder of Groundradar, which develops and deploys specialized GPR systems, including long-range UltraGPR technology. He is also associated with Geolitix, a cloud-based platform for processing and interpreting GPR and other geophysical data. His career has taken him to more than 100 countries, applying geophysical technology to archaeology, geology, mineral exploration, underground void detection, and other subsurface investigations.This conversation offers a rare look at the technology increasingly being used to investigate what may remain hidden beneath some of the world's most important ancient landscapes.Learn more about Jan Francke and Groundradar:Groundradar.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/earth-ancients--2790919/support.
There are certain moments when you realize the world you knew is gone forever. Your childhood home gets cleaned out. The cars you remember disappear. Your favorite mascot gets replaced. And, most devastating of all, 7UP decides it needs to become more lime-forward.We know. Take all the time you need.Episode 83 starts with some actual show business as the crew talks about trying to land a role — or at least get their faces somewhere in the background — in Sheriff Justice: The Series. There's also some movie talk surrounding Scott's short-film adventures before we arrive at the cultural earthquake nobody was prepared for: 7UP is changing its recipe.For the first time in 15 years, the lemon-lime soda is going lime-lemon.That announcement sends this comedy podcast directly into nostalgia mode as Rafe and Moon remember the glory days of 7UP's Uncola marketing, old-school glasses and, most importantly, Cool Spot. Remember Cool Spot? The red dot with sunglasses, sneakers and enough '90s attitude to somehow get his own Sega Genesis game? THAT was branding. Naturally, the conversation becomes a referendum on every mascot decision 7UP has made since, including poor Fido Dido catching strays decades after the fact.The trip down memory lane keeps rolling when the crew talks about cars disappearing from the market, including the Ford Escape, Jaguar F-Pace, Toyota GR Supra and Tesla Model S. That somehow brings Smart cars back into the conversation, which reminds everybody of that brief period when society tried to convince us driving something the size of a roller skate was the future.Then we Crap on Celebrities.Matthew McConaughey tells a story about using his Wedding Planner connection to Jennifer Lopez to help get himself out of a sticky traffic-stop situation in Mexico. Which raises an important question: if Matthew McConaughey still has to name-drop somebody else, what hope do the rest of us have?There's Barbie sequel drama involving Margot Robbie, Ryan Gosling, Greta Gerwig and some potentially enormous paydays. Kelly Ripa talks about needing gum-graft surgery. Selena Gomez and her Wondermind company face allegations in a lawsuit. Spider-Man is putting up gigantic box-office numbers, and the crew dives into a list of movies people online have branded some of the most boring films of the century.Then Anne Hathaway floats the idea that movies where dogs die should automatically get an R rating.Honestly, Old Yeller has been emotionally mugging children for generations, so at least somebody finally opened the investigation.We also get into the return of Ted Lasso, Axl Rose dealing with jaw problems while performing, and Lionel Richie cracking a joke about Usher and Chris Brown that predictably becomes an online debate. Because nothing said into a microphone is allowed to simply be a joke anymore. It must immediately become a panel discussion involving 40,000 strangers.But the centerpiece of the celebrity chaos is a game that deserves its own home edition: Good Tipper or Bad Tipper?The crew works through anecdotal stories involving John Cena, Chuck Norris, David Lee Roth, Dave Chappelle, Scottie Pippen, Shaq, Maria Shriver, 50 Cent, Stanley Tucci, Post Malone, Miley Cyrus, Bruce Willis, Elvis Presley, Jay-Z, Tina Fey, Jennifer Lopez, Kevin Hart, Jane Fonda and Jack Black.Some allegedly tipped huge. Some allegedly tipped terribly. Some stories immediately make the crew question humanity. And Scottie Pippen inspires a nickname so painfully obvious that humanity should be ashamed it took this long: No Tippin' Pippen.Again, these are anecdotes discussed during the show, not our personal surveillance operation into celebrities paying restaurant checks. We barely have enough resources to monitor our own lunch orders.The episode wraps with celebrity birthdays, Steve Martin age guesses, Reginald VelJohnson's incredible history of playing cops and the usual collection of references that make this comedy podcast feel less like a structured entertainment program and more like being trapped at a table with friends who remember every useless cultural detail except why they originally started talking.So pour yourself a 7UP — lemon-lime or the terrifying new lime-lemon variety — tip your server, fire up the Sega Genesis and enjoy another comedy podcast from The Rizzuto Show.Cool Spot, wherever you are: we remember you.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
What happens when you combine expired temp tags, full-contact leopards, a 7UP identity crisis, celebrity tipping drama, six Trans Ams, Burt Reynolds stories, and the real-life return of Buford T. Justice? You get The Rizzuto Show doing what it does best: taking perfectly reasonable topics and absolutely refusing to discuss them reasonably.This collection of Rizz Show chaos starts with the crew discovering they somehow won a St. Louis Magazine A-List award — despite apparently being among the last people to find out. The celebration lasts approximately long enough for Missouri's expired temporary tags to become the next emergency, especially when Rafe admits his own tags are expired. Suddenly, the guy complaining about the system becomes the poster child for it and begins framing his procrastination as a form of peaceful protest. Gandhi had the Salt March. Rafe has paperwork sitting somewhere in his house.From there, things only get more responsible.We encounter a man accused of deploying homemade spike strips to stop people from crossing his lawn, which naturally leads to a serious legal analysis based almost entirely on Home Alone. Another story involves a driver allegedly taking “good morning” as fighting words. Creep Corner opens its doors. The Town Crier gets involved. And eventually we arrive at FULL CONTACT LEOPARDS, because apparently humans weren't generating enough bad decisions on their own.Then comes an existential crisis nobody saw coming:7UP is changing.The legendary lemon-lime soda is going more lime-forward, sending the crew directly into an '80s and '90s nostalgia vortex. Suddenly we're talking about the Uncola, old 7UP glasses, Sega Genesis and the greatest red dot ever to wear sunglasses: Cool Spot.Bring him back, cowards.That trip down memory lane also resurrects Smart cars and other vehicles disappearing from the automotive landscape before Crap on Celebrities takes over. Matthew McConaughey explains how a Jennifer Lopez name-drop once helped him during a traffic stop in Mexico, Barbie sequel negotiations involve enormous amounts of money, and the crew gets into Spider-Man, Ted Lasso, Axl Rose, boring movies and whether killing a dog in a movie should automatically earn an R rating.But then we stumble into a game that could sustain this show for the next decade: Good Tipper or Bad Tipper?The crew reacts to online anecdotes about celebrity tipping involving Shaq, Post Malone, Miley Cyrus, David Lee Roth, Dave Chappelle, Scottie Pippen, JLo, Jack Black, Bruce Willis, 50 Cent, Stanley Tucci and more. Some stories restore our faith in famous people. Others give us No Tippin' Pippen, and honestly, that's enough cultural achievement for one episode.And then things go eastbound and down.Sean and Jason — the guys bringing Sheriff Buford T. Justice and Junior Justice back to life — walk into the studio looking like Smokey and the Bandit escaped the screen and wandered into The Rizzuto Show.Sean even arrives in full Buford mode with a lit cigarette.Nobody tells Sheriff Justice what to do.The guys tell the incredible story of how their Smokey and the Bandit tribute work grew from reenactments and car shows into Sheriff Justice: The Series, a prequel exploring Buford and Junior before their legendary pursuit of the Bandit. They explain how Sedalia, Missouri became the production home, why they're committed to preserving the spirit of Jackie Gleason and Mike Henry's original performances, and how the families connected to those actors have supported what they're doing.Then we get to the cars.Vintage vehicles. Classic cop cars. Period-correct backgrounds. A Trans Am personally autographed by Burt Reynolds.Oh, and Jason owns six Trans Ams, because apparently some people actually achieve their childhood dreams instead of just buying another commemorative T-shirt.Sean also shares what it was like spending a week around Burt Reynolds at a film festival shortly before Reynolds passed away. That leads to stories about Burt's legendary ability to entertain a room, his willingness to tell stories where he wasn't necessarily the hero, and why the man's combination of charisma, cowboy hats, mustaches and muscle cars permanently rewired an entire generation.The nostalgia continues with Paul Williams — Little Enos himself — immediately slipping back into character when he encountered Sean and Jason at a convention. The production stories get even crazier when we learn they filmed through a reported 123-degree heat index during a 14-hour day, because apparently recreating the 1970s also means recreating a time when workplace air conditioning was merely a rumor.And then comes the ultimate Hollywood moment: Sean looks over and realizes he has his own stunt double.That's when you know you've upgraded from “guy doing a tribute” to “guy somebody else gets paid to injure themselves pretending to be.”Naturally, none of this can simply remain an interview.The Rizz Show immediately begins campaigning for roles.Extras become possible speaking parts. Speaking parts become SAG-card dreams. Moon volunteers to protect the Trans Am. Dr Pepper and Diablo sandwiches become potential negotiating tools. At some point this stops sounding like a joke and starts sounding dangerously close to an actual plan.Across all three conversations, it's everything that makes The Rizzuto Show the beautifully unnecessary daily comedy machine that it is: St. Louis stories, weird news, celebrity gossip, nostalgia, pop culture, ridiculous arguments, movie memories, questionable decisions and grown adults becoming emotionally invested in subjects ranging from soda mascots to license plates.Come for the celebrity tipping stories. Stay for Cool Spot. Learn absolutely nothing about proper vehicle registration. Develop an unhealthy desire to own a 1977 Trans Am. And whatever you do, do not engage the leopards in full contact.It's The Rizzuto Show.We won an award, you know.Apparently.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.Expired temp tags about to be a thing of the past in MissouriMidwest curmudgeon, 39, charged with placing homemade spike strip along popular bike path to take petty revenge on child cyclistsManiac allegedly tried to run over jogger 3 times after she wished him ‘good morning'Leopard mauls man who paid $150 for 'full contact' experienceThese Are the Cars Being Discontinued in 2026See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Podcasting 2.0 August 14th 2026 Episode 267 - "Chocolove" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 00 - THE SPOTIFY "SKIP AHEAD" BUTTON — THE BIG ONE What it is: Spotify is testing a button that appears on the playback screen the moment it thinks you'd want to skip — an intro, a sponsorship message, or an entire ad break. It is bigger than everything else on screen. One tap drops you at the end of the break, back in the show. Premium subscribers only, selected markets including US and UK, and only when the app is in the foreground. Who broke it: James Cridland at Pod News, 4 August 2026 — an exclusive. Spotify never announced it. Semafor and most of the trade press picked it up afterwards; Cridland noted on air this week that some of them ran it without credit. The number that makes it different from a skip button: Cridland's arithmetic — skipping a typical ad break by hand is nine presses of the 15-second button, plus a correction tap when you overshoot. Skip Ahead is one. "Some people have said, oh, but you've been able to skip for years and this is no different. But a button that only appears when it's stuff that Spotify thinks you should be skipping is a start." It skips other people's money: the button fires on third-party ads — Acast, Odyssey, the New York Times — and on ads inside Spotify's own shows. It even skipped Search Engine's read for its own paid tier, PJ Vogt pitching Incognito Mode. One half of Spotify sells advertisers reach; the other half hands listeners a button to leave. Spotify's answer, and the trapdoor in it: Spotify told Cridland it is "not affecting ad delivery." True only if delivery means to the device. Cridland: "If ad delivery is to the listener's ear, which is actually what people are paying for..." — the download still counts, the ad still gets billed, the human never hears it. Spotify's other defence: the button merely shows where other listeners already skip. Cridland: "I'm not entirely sold on that, but if that's what Spotify say, I mean they wouldn't lie."
The "small cartridges for big game" debate continues. Does stout recoil REALLY prevent you from making accurate shots in the field? If so, what's the reason: Is it rifle dynamics? Shooter technique? Lack of discipline? Or... could large-caliber rifles actually be fundamentally less accurate? In this episode we take a deep dive into whether hunters actually should be better shooters with small cartridges. ENJOY! FRIENDS, PLEASE SUPPORT THE PODCAST!

One April afternoon, millions gathered along a mapped arc across Mexico and the United States to witness a rare total solar eclipse. Schools released children, small towns blossomed to receive travelers, neighbors set up lawn chairs in driveways donning protective glasses to take in the wonder. As television crews documented the countdown to “totality,” the crowd grew silent except for one repeated phrase: “Oh my God!” That struck me. I don’t know for certain why those observers chose that phrase in that moment, but I suspect that as mortals encountered the rare and the astonishing, they seemed to need Someone to acknowledge. Someone to thank. Someone to worship. When we look heavenward, our response is awe. As David wrote, “The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands” (Psalm 19:1). Luke, the historian, reports Jesus’ last minutes on the cross. “It was about noon, and darkness came over the whole land until three in the afternoon, for the sun stopped shining” (23:44-45). Matthew shares a response to this revelation. “When the centurion and those with him who were guarding Jesus saw the earthquake and all that had happened, they were terrified, and exclaimed, ‘Surely he was the Son of God!’ ” (Matthew 27:54). They couldn’t help but acknowledge God as the Someone worthy of worship. In humble awe, I worship You—my God.

In this prescient interview, Savage speaks with Pat Buchanan about issues that would become increasingly important in the years that followed, including China's growing economic power, national security, foreign ownership of American assets, cybersecurity, trade deficits, manufacturing losses, immigration, and American sovereignty. Savage argued that the proposed 3Com deal involving Chinese telecommunications company Huawei should be blocked on national-security grounds, questioned Goldman Sachs' influence in Washington, and urged Americans to apply the kind of public pressure that helped stop the Dubai ports deal. They also discuss the consequences of NAFTA and America's trade deficit with Mexico, and the loss of U.S. manufacturing. They issue a warning about the border, demographic change, and immigration. They chastise the Bush-era embrace of globalization and question whether America was sacrificing its sovereignty.

Sparrows are iconic desert denizens of the southwestern U.S. and northern Mexico. They thrive in open arid habitats, with evenly spaced shrubs, trees, and cacti. Historically, these native ecosystems were naturally maintained with frequent, low-intensity fires. But decades of drought and fire suppression have set the stage for hotter, more destructive blazes. We can protect Black-throated Sparrows and their vibrant habitats by preventing overgrazing on rangelands, combating the spread of invasive plants, and restoring a sustainable fire regime to the landscape.

Come live vicariously through me as I spend a week in Mexico working with Arette, spending time with friends, exploring some incredible distilleries, and continuing to show my wife just how special this place is to me.There was tequila, of course. A lot of it. But there was so much more—old friends, new friends, great food, long days, unexpected adventures, and those moments that remind me why I keep coming back to Jalisco.This was one of those trips where the work never really felt like work, and I found myself incredibly grateful for the opportunity to experience it all with the people I care about.So come along for the ride.
It's Thursday, August 13th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Adam McManus Haitian gangs target churches Violent gangs in Haiti are increasingly targeting churches. These gangs control up to 90 percent of the capital of Port-au-Prince. They have killed and kidnapped religious leaders and shut down dozens of churches. Catholic Bishop Joseph Gontrand Décoste told Aid to the Church in Need, “We are the last remaining retaining wall: moral, ethical, spiritual, and prophetic. … That is why they want to eliminate us.” Christians help victims of Columbia's earthquake Christians are bringing disaster relief to Colombia. A 7.4-magnitude earthquake struck the South American country on Monday. The quake killed 250 people and injured thousands more. Many Christian relief organizations are sending aid to the country, including Samaritan's Purse. Franklin Graham, the president, wrote on X, “We … are currently working to put together an airlift of relief supplies, including emergency shelter tarp and hygiene kits. I encourage you to pray for the people of this country.” Hebrews 13:16 says, “Do not forget to do good and to share, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.” Send a much-needed donation to the Columbian victims of this earthquake through Samaritan's Purse. You'll find the donation link in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com. Mexican Bible Society translates Scriptures into 8 local languages The Bible Society of Mexico is celebrating six decades of ministry this year. The Bible has been translated into eight indigenous languages in the country. And the demand for Bibles is growing as Protestant churches expand their presence. Efraín Amaro is the head of distribution of the Bible society. He told Christian Daily International, “In 60 years, more than 374 million biblical materials have been distributed. We have reached 13 cities across the country with service and distribution centers.” Revelation 7:9-10 says, “After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no one could number, of all nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, with palm branches in their hands, and crying out with a loud voice, saying, ‘Salvation belongs to our God Who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!'” White House Press Secretary Karolien Leavitt embraces motherhood White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, age 28, will be leaving her position to fully embrace motherhood. She and her 60-year-old husband, Nicholas Riccio, have two children together -- their son Niko, 2, and Viviana who is three months. In a Truth Social post, President Donald Trump explained that she “will be departing her role at the end of the month so she can spend more time with her beautiful young children and family, a decision I totally understand and respect!” In a statement on X, Leavitt added, “Serving as the White House Press Secretary over the past year and a half has been the honor and adventure of a lifetime. I am incredibly grateful to President Trump for granting me so many extraordinary opportunities, such as working in the West Wing and spending countless hours in the Oval Office, flying around the world and meeting foreign leaders, and traveling across our beautiful country and meeting Americans from all walks of life. “The truth is, since returning to the White House after the birth of my daughter, I have felt in my heart that I cannot be the best mom my two young children deserve while devoting the constant time, energy, and attention required of the White House Press Secretary. And that is why I have ultimately made the bittersweet decision to depart the White House.” Titus 2:4-5 says, “Train the young women to love their husbands and children, to be self-controlled, pure, working at home, kind, and submissive to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be reviled.” Democrat socialist barely defeated in Wisconsin Socialist Democrats suffered a setback in Wisconsin on Tuesday. Moderate David Crowley barely defeated socialist Francesca Hong in the Democrat primary election for governor. According to NBC, the vote was 39.8% vs 39.3%. Just 3,796 votes separated the two in the statewide race. Leftist candidates had been winning many Democrat primaries this year. Despite being considered a moderate, Crowley believes that killing unborn babies is “healthcare” and must be “protected at all costs.” He made this comment in his victory speech. CROWLEY: “Every one of us has something much bigger to unite around. And that is keeping [Make America Great Again] extremism from bringing the chaos we see in Washington into our neighborhoods right here in the state of Wisconsin. From the very first day that I announced this campaign, I said the real threat wasn't any of my primary opponents. The real opponent has always been Tom Tiffany. That remains true today.” Tiffany, the Republican nominee for Wisconsin governor, is currently a member of Congress. The Washington Examiner reports that new Democratic-affiliated polling shows Crowley beating Tiffany by three points this fall, though the race is within the margin of error. Crowley leads Tiffany 47% to 44%, according to the poll by Protect Our Wisconsin, a group backed by the Democratic Governors Association. Federal gov't gave mega money to religious migrant resettlement groups The federal government funded major religious groups with hundreds of millions of dollars in migrant resettlement grants. The data comes from Brian Chau, the founder of Efforts News. Tech entrepreneur Elon Musk brought attention to this research in a post on X this week. In one case, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops received over $180 million dollars in migrant resettlement grants in 2024. That was over 80 percent of the group's revenue at the time. The contracts ended last year after the Trump administration cut funding to such programs. Women hold more jobs than men in America Women now hold more jobs than men in the U.S economy. A report from Indeed's Hiring Lab found the number of jobs held by men declined by 142,000 between February 2025 and February 2026. Over the same period, the number of jobs held by women grew by 298,000. The report noted, “More jobs are held by women than men in the non-farm economy, not because of a recession, but because of years of eroding male labor force participation.” Americans become skeptical of capitalism Americans are becoming less positive toward capitalism. A new Gallup survey found 54 percent of U.S. adults said they have a positive image of capitalism. That's down from 61 percent in 2010. Thirty-nine percent said they have a positive image of socialism. That's up from 36 percent in 2010. The drop in positivity toward capitalism has accelerated since 2021. Americans trust small, local businesses and churches And finally, Americans tend to trust small, local institutions, according to research from the Barna Group. U.S. adults put some of their highest trust in local businesses, individual Christians, and small churches. They put moderate trust in Christian pastors, Christian non-profits, and Christian businesses. But they had little trust for megachurches and celebrity pastors. Compared to 2024, Christian non-profits, charities, and small churches saw the largest growth on the trust index.

Our destination is the salt marshes of the Texas Coast for Redfish with renown author, fly fishing die-hard, and adventurer, Riverhorse Nakadate. Redfish are the bruisers of inshore fishing, known for aggressive strikes, blistering drag-screaming runs, and a stubborn, bulldog-like fight, and the Texas coast offer world class opportunities. Riverhorse explains why he loves Texas Redfish and shares stories from a life spent running wild: climbing to the bottom of the Black Canyon of the Gunnison in search of trophy trout, spending 19 hours in an African jail, surviving extended underwater beat downs and shark bumps while surfing the world, canoeing 200 miles alone through the boundary waters, and why a canoe can set you free. In this episode: The salt marshes of Texas — home to redfish, the bruisers of the inshore game. The story of Dickey Betts spray-painting his famous gold top Les Paul red before a gig. Fishing the bottom of the Black Canyon of the Gunnison reached by a terrifying descent. How "Riverhorse" became his legal middle name. Held 19 hours in an African jail Why water and wilderness are "where true living happens." A childhood on the Colorado River in Austin, and a steelhead-fishing stepfather who opened the door to the ocean and the fly rod. Surfing close calls — underwater beatdowns, shark encounters, and more. The case for the canoe.. Topwater bass in the Texas Piney Woods, and his go-to swim frog. Going undercover with game wardens against illegal longlining and shark finning in the Gulf Redfish technique: Texas sight-fishing on the flats versus Louisiana's winter giants, plus fly setups and night fishing.

Sometimes I wish it were in my power to get every church youth group in America to go on a missions trip. Something unusual happens when some all-American kids suddenly get plunged into another culture to do some work in Jesus' name. It does something for the people they go to help, but I think it does more for the kids who are doing the helping. I heard a local youth group report on their trip to Mexico. Basically they had all of their support stripped away from them while they were there. It was a language they weren't accustomed to, the money was different, they didn't have the comforts they were used to, they had some spiders hanging over them as they slept at night which they for the most part don't have at home. They had unfamiliar food. The customs were things they weren't used to. The result on these mission trips is pretty predictable. All of a sudden, kids who never have devotions are up early in the morning on a rock with a Bible somewhere. Kids who have always thought prayer was boring are saying, "Let's pray!" What they learn several thousand miles from home is something you may need to learn right where you are today. I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about "Desperate for An Answer." Our word for today from the Word of God comes from Matthew 5:6. You might recognize this as being in what's called The Beatitudes, Jesus' Sermon on the Mount. He says, "Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled." I think Jesus is describing spiritual health here in terms similar to what we do when we talk about physical health - appetite. How's your appetite? And He is talking about people who say, "I'm hungry for the Lord; I'm thirsty for the Lord. I need more of You, Lord. I need You!" Those kids on that missionary trip are learning a valuable lesson. With all of their usual dependencies stripped away, they find out that you know the Lord when you need the Lord. Maybe that's why third-world Christians have so much more power in their lives, and have so much more revival in their experience than we do. They don't have all of the props we do, and it seems that those who know the Lord the best are those who need Him the most. We dig deeply into the Lord when the bottom drops out. I'm sure you have. I have. And then, once things have stabilized, we tend to return to our old props. We tend to return to a casual Christianity instead of this desperately dependent but very rich faith. The fact is we desperately need the Lord every day, not just when the bottom drops out. We're as needy as the people in the third world. We shouldn't be confused because we've got internet, and movies, and concerts, and church services, and homes and all these other support structures. We just don't cling to Him because we're surrounded by so many other resources. Do we have to wait for all our resources to be stripped away before we learn how much we need our Lord? Do we have to be starving to death before we get to be hungry for more of Him? "Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness. They will be filled." See what we're missing because we haven't acknowledged how much we need Him? Even now, why don't you ask the Lord (it's kind of a strange prayer), "Lord, make me desperate for You." He'd rather do it without trauma and without tragedy. Ask Him to give you a new hour-by-hour sense of your desperate need for Him; an hour-by-hour dependency; the child on his Heavenly Father. And then live today as if God is your only hope, not just one of your many resources. When you need the Lord desperately, you get to know Him deeply.
What happens when you come in to learn about investing and end up rebuilding your entire life? This week on The Spiritual Investor Podcast, I speak with Megan Taylor about exactly this. Megan Taylor is a globally recognized DJ, music strategist, and retreat producer, known as a DJ Alchemist for the way she fuses sound and energy into experiences people do not forget. Over fifteen years she has worked with SoulCycle, Vogue, Nike, Facebook, the WNBA, and TEDx, was voted Chicago's Best DJ, and was named among BizBash's Top 500 Most Influential Event Professionals and Top 25 Entertainers. She also holds a Master's in Emotional and Social Intelligence, produces transformational retreats for spiritual entrepreneurs from Mexico to England, and has done two rounds of the SI Mastermind. She joined to learn about money. What she left with was a new relationship, a new city, a dissolved relationship with time, and a completely different understanding of what abundance actually is. We talk about her decision to sell everything, live nomadically, and land in Tulum with no plan. We talk about the dinner party that opened a whole new timeline. And we talk about the moment she realized her carefully tracked budget was not responsible money management, it was a ceiling she had built herself. In this episode: Why abundance is one energy and money is only one of the forms it takes How living outside of time creates the space for things to reorganize on your behalf Certainty as an embodied state rather than a prediction about the future The difference between being all in and being half in Why Megan let go of the numbers and what happened after Breaking the structure on purpose instead of waiting for life to break it for you To learn more about Megan, visit www.thisismegantaylor.com or follow Megan on Instagram @djmegantaylor.

As the sun slowly rose over the Rio Grande on September 15, 1891, Catarino Erasmo Garza stood on the Texas side of the border holding in his hands two objects that would come to define his life: a Winchester rifle and a revolutionary proclamation. For years Garza had fought the dictatorship of Porfirio Díaz through his many newspapers and publications. Now he announced that he was laying down the pen and taking up arms. In the opening lines of his manifesto, he declared:"The last of the independent journalists today abandons the pen to seize the sword in defense of the people's rights."His proclamation denounced the destruction of the free press, political murder, fraudulent elections, and the concentration of land and power, while calling for constitutional government, free trade, and land reform in Mexico. Nearly twenty years before Francisco Madero launched the movement that became the Mexican Revolution, Garza had already identified the grievances that would eventually bring down the Díaz regime.Today, Garza remains largely absent from popular memory. His name never appears alongside revolutionary icons like Emiliano Zapata, Pancho Villa, or Francisco Madero, despite the fact that he articulated many of the democratic demands later associated with the Mexican Revolution. This is a shame, because Garza was more than a revolutionary soldier. He was an influential journalist, an international activist, and the likely publisher of El Chicano, a Spanish-language newspaper in San Antonio that may represent the earliest known printed use of the word Chicano as a positive political identity.

Pour écouter 5000 ans d'Histoire en entier, sans pub et avec les bonus, pour 2€ par mois :https://m.audiomeans.fr/s/S-tavkjvmo Aujourd'hui, retour sur le 13 août 1521, la chute de Tenochtitlan. 13 août 1521, Tenochtitlan brûle. La grande capitale des Aztèques, bâtie sur un lac entouré de canaux et de temples, s'effondre dans la boue et le sang. Après 3 mois de siège, Hernán Cortés et ses troupes, épaulées par des milliers d'alliés indigènes, entrent dans la ville en ruine. Il ne reste rien du tout du faste aztèque, ni palais, ni jardin suspendu, ni prière. La chute de Tenochtitlan, c'est la fin d'un monde. Cortés n'était pourtant arrivé que deux ans plus tôt avec une poignée d'hommes, mais il a su nouer des alliances, exploiter les divisions entre peuples indigènes, imposer sa force avec une violence froide. Face à lui, l'empereur Cuauhtémoc résiste jusqu'au bout. Jeune, déterminé, il devient le dernier symbole d'un empire à l'agonie. Le 13 août, il est capturé alors qu'il tente de fuir en canaux. Il dira à Cortés : "Seigneur, j'ai fait ce que je devais pour défendre ma ville et mon peuple. Maintenant, tue-moi !". Cortés ne le tue pas, enfin, pas tout de suite, mais le destin de l'empereur aztèque est déjà scellé, et celui de son peuple aussi. Le 13 août 1521, ce n'est pas seulement la fin de Tenochtitlan, c'est la naissance d'un nouveau monde brutal, métissé, colonial. Sur les ruines du cœur aztèque, les Espagnols vont construire Mexico. Et l'Amérique, désormais, ne sera plus jamais la même. A demain dans TIME SHOT pour une nouvelle Minute Histoire. Hébergé par Audiomeans.

Host: Lalo Solorzano and Andy Shiles Guest(s): Ken Roberts and Tatiana Panzardi Published: August 13, 2026 Length: ~35 minutes Presented by: Global Training Center Summary The latest U.S. trade numbers are in—and they reveal an economy being reshaped by artificial intelligence, tariffs, changing supply chains, and new patterns in global commerce. In this quarterly trade update, Lalo Solorzano and Andy Shiles welcome back trade-data expert Ken Roberts, joined by Tatiana Panzardi of WorldCity, to unpack U.S. Census Bureau trade data through the first six months of 2026. The numbers tell a fascinating story. U.S. trade is up, Mexico is firmly positioned as the nation's leading trading partner, and Port Laredo has returned to the top among U.S. trade gateways by value. But perhaps the biggest shift is happening in technology: computer imports have surged as companies pour billions into AI infrastructure and data centers, changing rankings that were historically dominated by oil and automobiles. At the same time, passenger-vehicle imports and exports are feeling the effects of tariffs and changing automotive policy. Beyond the statistics, this episode asks the question that matters to trade professionals and business leaders: What do these numbers mean for your sourcing, markets, contracts, and growth strategy? Main Topic / Discussion U.S. trade is undergoing a structural shift. Ken and Tatiana walk through the latest trade data and explain how AI investment, tariffs, energy, automotive trade, and supply-chain realignment are changing which commodities, countries, and ports dominate U.S. commerce. One of the clearest signals is the extraordinary growth in computer imports. Through the first six months of 2026, the episode reports computer imports at approximately $194.4 billion, compared with roughly $101.4 billion during the same period in 2025. Much of that growth is tied to servers and infrastructure supporting AI data centers. Meanwhile, Mexico remains central to U.S. trade, while Taiwan, Vietnam, South Korea, and other Asian economies are becoming increasingly important within changing global supply chains. The automotive story looks different. Passenger-vehicle imports have declined amid tariffs, while exports to several major markets have also weakened. The discussion explores what that means for specialized automotive ports and for companies navigating higher costs and shifting demand. Ultimately, the hosts bring the data back to business strategy: understanding trade trends can help companies identify new export markets, rethink sourcing, anticipate supply-chain changes, and spot opportunities before competitors do. Key Takeaways • AI is rewriting the U.S. import rankings. Massive investment in servers and data-center infrastructure has pushed computers ahead of categories such as passenger vehicles and oil, illustrating how quickly AI investment is affecting physical trade flows. • Mexico's importance continues to grow. Mexico ranks as the leading U.S. trade partner in the data discussed, including its critical role in both imports and exports, while Port Laredo has again become the nation's leading trade gateway by value. • Supply chains continue shifting away from China. Taiwan, Vietnam, South Korea, and other Asian markets are taking increasingly prominent positions as tariffs, technology investment, and sourcing strategies reshape longstanding trade patterns. • Trade data should be a business-development tool. Importers, exporters, executives, and small-business owners can use commodity, country, and port data to identify growing markets, sourcing opportunities, emerging demand, and potential risks.

WATCH ▶️ Watch this episode on YouTube *** EPISODE DESCRIPTION In this episode, I'm joined by Aldo Heberlein. Aldo is a mortgage broker and the Founder of Enmortgage from Vancouver, BC, who became a broker in 2020, and has steadily increased his yearly volume from $5M in 2021, to $35M in 2025, and is on pace for $40M in 2026. Originally from Mexico, Aldo made his way to Vancouver a decade ago after living in Norway with his wife for 6 years. After his digital marketing business collapsed overnight when Facebook changed its policies, Aldo decided to pivot strategically into mortgages Starting with zero connections in Vancouver, Aldo built his client base by leveraging LinkedIn to connect with Spanish-speaking professionals navigating Vancouver's complex market. By specifically targeting the underserved Latino immigrant community, Aldo built loyal referral networks and sustainable growth rather than competing in saturated markets. After finding success on a routinely over-looked platform among brokers, Aldo offers to setup Realtors with their own automated LinkedIn reach-outs and email campaigns for their own businesses, creating tangible value add for all of his potential referral partners. While other brokers are always trying to speed things up, Aldo's approach to clients centres on slowing down, focusing on client education. On his 30 to 90 minute discovery calls, Aldo will underwrite the deal in real time, screen sharing spreadsheets and providing personalized analysis of each situation, building trust from the first meeting. Aldo is here to discuss: → His journey so far in the mortgage industry, his volume so far, and his future business plans. → What makes LinkedIn a unique platform that more brokers should be taking advantage of and how he leverages it to prospect his avatar clients and referral partners. → The process behind his stealth mode value add of running Realtor's LinkedIn prospecting & email drip campaigns. → His mindset behind doing longer initial discovery calls with clients, why he underwrites during them, and building client trust through education. → How he overcame common industry traps like chasing bad files and dealing with bad referral partners. → How omnipresence protects your business and where he gets his leads today. ***

In this special DanceSpeak x No Starving Artists crossover episode, we sit down with Moncell Durden for a candid conversation about the International Dance League and some of the bigger questions its inception brings to the dance community. Through Moncell's perspective, we dig into what dancers can consider when new professional opportunities emerge, from sustainability and understanding contracts to asking better questions before signing on the dotted line. This isn't legal advice, but rather an invitation for dancers to think critically, stay curious, and better understand the opportunities in front of them. A thoughtful conversation about IDL that ultimately asks a bigger question: how can dancers become more informed participants in their own careers?

Mexico suspended promotion and relegation in 2020 under the justification of financial instability. It was supposed to be temporary. Now, Liga MX is staying closed. The consequences go far beyond which clubs play in the first division. Remove promotion and relegation and you change the incentives throughout the entire ecosystem. Second-division clubs have less reason […]

Douglas MacGregor at www.macgregorwarrior.substack.com https://www.youtube.com/@macgregorwarriordiplomacy and https://nationalconversation.org/ No Existential Threat from China/Russia—America's Real Crisis Is Internal In a wide-ranging discussion, Col. Douglas MacGregor argues there are no existential military threats to the United States from China or Russia, contending the most serious dangers come from instability and organized crime in Mexico and the Caribbean Basin, weakened social cohesion, mass migration, and loss of American identity. He criticizes U.S. and NATO leadership over Ukraine, predicts Russia will ultimately defeat Ukraine, and calls Ukraine a "zombie state," while disputing portrayals of Putin as Hitler. MacGregor says defending U.S. borders and reducing overseas "forward presence" are essential in an age of precision missiles, and warns financial manipulation is postponing an inevitable economic reckoning driven by massive public and private debt. He claims the U.S. government is acting against Americans' interests, describes "Israel first" influence in Washington, and expects renewed action against Iran that could exhaust remaining U.S. capacity, while forecasting major geopolitical realignments in the Middle East. 00:00 Biggest Threats Today 01:40 No Military Existential Threat 04:17 Ukraine War Reality Check 05:34 Putin Hitler Narrative 06:14 Son Visits Russia 08:22 Why Russia Moves Slowly 11:30 Ukraine as Zombie State 12:49 Border Security Focus 15:15 End Expeditionary Warfare 17:33 Demographics and Migration 18:19 Army on the Border 20:30 American Identity Erosion 23:08 Immigration and Prosperity 24:46 Europe Identity Rebound 30:35 Assimilation or Collapse 31:55 Scarcity and Education 40:29 Government Not Ours 41:12 Israel First Policies 45:19 Rural Urban Civil Strife 48:20 Hybrid American Identity 49:20 Executive Power Creep 50:01 Historic Strongmen Examples 52:48 Trump and Donor Control 55:04 Corruption and Cromwell Fix 56:12 Midterms and ICE Backlash 58:10 Scarcity and Revolution Risks 01:00:52 Institutional Decay and Youth 01:05:31 Debt Reckoning and Vacuum 01:10:40 Iran War Paths and Alliances 01:17:02 Gaza as Regional Catalyst 01:18:02 Where to Follow MacGregor 01:19:08 Military Reform and Four Stars 01:24:57 National Conversation Closing
Power leaves its mark on the places that hold it.Across royal palaces, castles, chapels, staircases and private chambers, stories have endured of monarchs, queens, servants, soldiers and courtiers who seem unable to leave the world behind.This episode explores some of the most atmospheric royal hauntings from Britain and beyond, from Anne Boleyn's ghost at the Tower of London, Blickling Hall, Hever Castle and Windsor, to the haunted galleries of Hampton Court Palace, where Jane Seymour, Catherine Howard and Sybil Penn are said to remain.The journey moves through the darker edges of royal history: the Princes in the Tower, the murder of David Rizzio at Holyroodhouse, the restless spirits of Glamis Castle, the Romanov tragedy, the haunted legacy of Versailles, and ghostly accounts connected to palaces in France, Mexico, China, Sweden, Denmark, Russia and Austria.Blending historical storytelling with witness accounts and enduring folklore, this documentary-style episode asks why royal residences so often become places of haunting. Are these apparitions echoes of trauma, glimpses into the past, or something more personal - a final trace of those who lived, ruled, suffered and died behind palace walls?Episode Written by Melissa WestEnjoyed the episode?

Going global stopped being a phase-two project. The brands winning now are global on day one. Going global profitably is the harder business, and the levers that decide it are the ones nobody puts on a slide.Matthew Merrilees has spent two decades on the operational side of cross-border, starting at DHL and now running North America for Global-e. He and Rick walk the international P&L line by line. Payment acquiring, which is bigger than most operators assume. Duty and tax. Classification. Drawback.The math changed underneath everyone. US de minimis went from $800 to zero, so every inbound parcel is dutiable and every SKU needs an HS code. The EU now applies a three-euro charge per unique HS code below the 150 euro threshold, which quietly wrecks any sitewide promotion running a mixed catalog. Seventy-five regulatory changes in the US alone, by Matthew's count.Also covered: why most brands refund duties and taxes to returning international shoppers and never reclaim them, why the Section 321 play through Mexico is finished, what a real multi-carrier setup looks like in practice, and the thinking behind Global-e buying Passport.This episode is sponsored by Avalara.

Episode 350 is packed with hilarious stories, passionate debates, and one hypothetical that will have you questioning how much your freedom is really worth.We kick things off with Luis recapping his trip to Mexico, where he reconnects with family, shares stories from a small-town ranch lifestyle, talks about drinking mezcal, and explains why everyone somehow ends up being related—or at least feels like family. It's a fun conversation filled with travel stories, cultural experiences, and plenty of laughs.From there, we dive into the world of Spider-Man and the Marvel Cinematic Universe, discussing whether someone who's never followed the MCU can still enjoy the latest Spider-Man movie. Is it worth jumping into the multiverse without doing hours of homework first? We share our thoughts and hear what the live audience has to say.Next, we react to a frustrating youth sports situation involving a canceled event and a controversial refund policy. After paying hundreds of dollars in advance, one parent only received a partial refund after the event was canceled, leading us to question transparency, fairness, and whether organizers should be handling situations like this differently.One of the biggest conversations of the episode centers around friendship, communication, and personal boundaries. We discuss what happens when someone repeatedly pushes a topic after they've clearly been told, "I don't want to talk about it." Is it just friendly curiosity? Entertainment? Or is it crossing a line? We explore the importance of respecting boundaries, reading social cues, and knowing when it's time to let a conversation go.Finally, we tackle one of our favorite hypothetical scenarios:You receive $45,000 every single week... but you can never leave your house.At first it sounds like the easiest money you'll ever make—but once you really think about it, things get complicated. Could you stay inside for a month? A year? Forever? Would the money outweigh the isolation, or would your mental health eventually win? We break down every angle and reveal how long we honestly think we'd last.This episode is full of laughs, honest conversations, listener interaction, and the random tangents you've come to expect from The After Show But Later. Whether you're here for the comedy, the thought-provoking discussions, or just hanging out with us each week, we're glad you're here.We want to hear from YOU!

The party is sticking with Max Miller despite the very credible domestic abuse allegations. Not only is this a gift to his Democratic opponent, Brian Poindexter, in that red district in Ohio, it's also likely to impact the Senate and governor's races there as well. Meanwhile, Tucker and MTG are talking about creating a third party for 2028. And Trump is losing to Iran so badly he can't even make a coherent argument about the war for his biggest fans. Plus: the ankle monitoring of Haitian immigrants is very Soviet-era Eastern Bloc, defense contractors don't want Ukraine making Patriot missiles because they can do it for less money, Trump is literally giving Mexico territory so he can build his corrupt border wall through Big Bend National Park, and Tim keeps his promise and shares some history on bananas.Bill Kristol joins Tim Miller.show notes: Tim's candidate list, including Ohio's Brian Poindexter Monday's “Morning Shots” Bill and Eric Edelman on the munition depletions Tim and Isaac Saul on the bulldozing of Big Bend Jim on the governor's race in Ohio NYT profile of Brian Poindexter Bill's “Bulwark on Sunday” with Col.
