In this episode, we chat with Tim Biggs, an experienced company adviser and part-time academic, focused on the mining industry. He is a director of Grainge Advisory Limited, which provides advisory and consultancy services to companies, investors, and other organisations, predominantly in the mining sector. We met recently at the UK mining conference in Cornwall, and Tim, who is a regular listener to the podcast, asked if he could come on to the show to discuss his recently released book…"Mining - Why It's Essential for a Sustainable Future". The book is available at bookstores, online through Waterstones, Amazon etc, using the search “Timothy Biggs” or “Mining”, and direct from the publisher using this link: https://www.politybooks.com/bookdetail?book_slug=9781509567492 KEY TAKEAWAYS Mining is essential for modern life, as nearly everything we use contains metals and minerals derived from mining.  There is a significant lack of understanding about mining among the general public, particularly among younger generations and students.  The mining industry has historically been poor at promoting its importance. The focus should shift from showcasing machinery to highlighting the essential role mining plays in everyday life and sustainability efforts. To ensure the future of the mining industry, it is crucial to attract young talent. This can be achieved by improving the industry's image, providing scholarships, and engaging educators to promote mining BEST MOMENTS "Everything uses the products of mining, metals and minerals. The only things that don't have metals and minerals in them are things that are grown, like our food." "If you don't appreciate how important mining is, then you clearly need to understand what we use all of the products of mining for." "The industry has not really felt that it's necessary to do much about its image... No image turns into poor image when something goes wrong." "As we move towards a more sustainable world, you're going to need more mining, not less."

Former Royal Marine and police officer Simon doesn't hold back as he shares his unapologetic take on parenting, discipline, fitness—and why your morning routine might be holding you back. The discussion covers his recent observations on the physical state of men, his opinions on vaping and his approach to raising his 11-year-old son Charlie. Simon and Kat discuss discipline versus motivation, screen time, parenting approaches and what Simon sees as society's increasing softness. KEY TAKEAWAYS • Morning routines can become counterproductive and Simon argues that obsessive morning routines harm more than help when people focus more on the routine than actual productive work during the day. • Exercise can easily be integrated into daily life, Simon demonstrates fitting training into everyday activities like doing dips while cooking or pull ups during screen breaks, making fitness accessible without gym memberships. • After 47 years of training, Simon feels motivated only 50% of the time, but still trains daily by making it non-negotiable and asking "when will I train" not "will I train." Discipline matters more than motivation. • Children shouldn't be pacified with screens, Simon never gives his son screens at restaurants or when crying, instead engaging him in conversation and teaching him to interact with adults and handle boredom. • Simon judges people's ability to protect and help others based on basic physical tasks, viewing fitness as functional rather than aesthetic. • Self-esteem comes from achieving goals, confidence is built through "an undeniable stack of evidence that you are who you say you are" rather than positive affirmations. • Modern society promotes instant gratification. From Amazon Prime to dating apps, Simon sees society losing the ability to wait, creating what he calls "the Amazon Prime Society" where everything must be immediate! • Simon views vaping as "an adult dummy" that shows lack of self-control, comparing the constant use to pacification rather than the occasional nature of traditional smoking. BEST MOMENTS "If Instagram disappeared tonight, I'd be in my garden tomorrow morning training. Nothing changes for me." "A man should do what he says he's gonna do. That to me is the mark of a man." "Self-esteem isn't chanting mantras in the mirror in the morning. It's building an undeniable stack of evidence that you are who you say you are." ABOUT THE GUEST Simon Martin. Father first, always.

Despite appearing 'successful' on the outside, she paid a heavy ‘life' price. In 2016, her whole world collapsed. The reason?

In this episode, we discuss Alasdair MacIntyre's landmark book After Virtue. MacIntyre, an ex-Marxist and committed anti-liberal, offers a defense of the Aristotelian tradition and its search for the truly common good against the dominant tendency of liberal societies to reduce morality to individual preferences. Modern society, MacIntyre believes, is one where we live fragmented lives, unable to narrate a coherent story of the relationship between morality and politics. Our invocations of morality ring increasingly hollow as we cannot even imagine what it would mean to convince others of what is good. We explore how the loss of morality coincides with all of us becoming moralists, why it seems we have to choose between Nietzsche and Aristotle, the costs of teaching morality like a choose-your-own-adventure buffet, and whether MacIntyre offers a compelling solution to our nihilistic times. The least we can say is that living without virtue is a real bummer!GET YOUR TICKETS FOR THE LIVE SHOW HERE:https://epiphanychi.com/events/whats-left-of-philosophy-live-show-karl-marxs-communist-manifesto/This is just a short teaser of the full episode.

Ignorance in Democracy: Unraveling Myths About Immigration and Rights in AmericaKey TakeawaysMisconceptions about immigration laws and processes are rampant, even among those who argue passionately about them.Understanding one's rights and the limits of government vs. private regulation is crucial in navigating legal and social landscapes.Foreign aid and domestic priorities often clash, revealing deeper issues about governmental focus and resource allocation.Debunking Immigration Myths: What You Really Need to KnowImmigration remains a hot-button issue in the United States, with widespread myths fueling misunderstandings. This topic was a focal point of Mike and Torya's unabashed discussion in the transcript. They dive into the murky waters of immigration myths, especially common misconceptions about asylum seekers and the legal processes surrounding them. Highlighted in their conversation is the nuanced process of seeking asylum. Mike articulates, "A lot of people say that person is here legally because they asked for asylum… Not how it works." This statement underscores a prevalent misunderstanding: that just because someone asks for asylum, it doesn't grant them legal status. The process is rigorous and must adhere to international law, which stipulates specific conditions for lawful asylum claims that many overlook. Similarly, marriage to a U.S. citizen is perceived as a passport to instant citizenship, a belief Torya dismantles forcefully. "Marriage to a U.S. citizen, guys, sorry to tell you, it does not automatically make you a citizen," she clarifies. The reality is much more complicated, involving background checks, interviews, and often long waiting times. This myth illustrates a broader lack of understanding that even lawful paths to residency require navigation through complex bureaucracies.Understanding Your Rights: From Sovereign Citizens to MirandaThe dialogue shifts fluidly from immigration misunderstandings to the public's misconceptions about their rights and legal privileges. Mike and Torya humorously tackle the bizarre beliefs held by "sovereign citizens," individuals who contest governmental authority over them. Mike laughs off their claims, "Driving a motor vehicle on public roads is a regulated privilege that requires a license, registration, insurance, and adherence to state laws." This issue reflects a fundamental public misunderstanding between rights—the freedoms protected from government intrusion—and privileges, which are subject to regulation. Many of these misunderstandings can lead to legal troubles, as humorously noted in their observations of those who think they can traverse highways without adhering to established laws. Linked closely is the public misconception surrounding the necessity of Miranda rights. Mike lampoons those who panic if they're not read their rights during arrest, explaining, "They don't have to read you your rights until they plan on asking you questions." Here, he educates listeners on when law enforcement is obligated to issue a Miranda warning, emphasizing that immediate recitation is unnecessary unless questioning occurs.Rethinking Foreign Aid: Prioritizing Domestic ConcernsDiscussion transitions to the contentious topic of foreign aid versus addressing domestic issues. Here, the speakers probe the rationale behind investing U.S. resources abroad when internal issues like homelessness remain unresolved. "I'm sorry, no foreign country has a right to American money," Mike asserts, echoing a sentiment many share—that domestic needs should take precedence in government budgeting. The sentiment is not a blanket repudiation of foreign aid but a call for introspection on national priorities. Torya points to the stark reality: "They could build housing for all of California's homeless people from the money that they sent to Ukraine last year." This statement is a poignant reminder of the trade-offs involved in allocating governmental resources and the potential opportunities lost domestically when funds are diverted elsewhere.Reflect & Reevaluate: Bridging the Gap Between Belief and KnowledgeFrom start to finish, the transcript reveals a tapestry of misconceptions deeply ingrained in how many perceive immigration, rights, and national priorities. Mike sums up an underlying truth: "Ignorance, it isn't patriotic. It's pathetic." Grasping the subtleties of immigration law, accurately knowing one's rights, and understanding government spending priorities are crucial. Such knowledge empowers individuals not only to partake in informed discussions but also to make tangible societal contributions. Future dialogue should continually strive to separate fact from fiction, ensuring clarity prevails over confusion. As Torya cheekily suggests in the transcript, everyone "should go and take the citizenship test of the country that they live in and see if they pass." By fostering informed citizenship, society can advocate effectively for meaningful change and prioritize issues that truly matter. TimestampSummary0:01Debunking Immigration Myths and Misunderstandings in America5:03Misconceptions About Legal Rights and Sovereign Citizens7:59Challenges of Moderating and Understanding Social Media Policies11:44Debate Over Foreign Aid Versus Domestic Homelessness Solutions13:25Understanding Citizenship and Patriotism in Modern Society

Welcome to episode #985 of Six Pixels of Separation - The ThinkersOne Podcast. Kathleen deLaski is one of the most important voices rethinking the purpose, structure, and future of higher education. As founder of the Education Design Lab and board chair of Credential Engine, she's spent the last decade helping over 1,200 colleges, organizations, and regional economies reimagine learning pathways for next-generation students - particularly the new majority learners often left behind by traditional institutions. Her new book, Who Needs College Anymore? is a provocative and optimistic look at how postsecondary education must evolve, drawing on over a decade of field research, human-centered design, and more than 150 interviews with educators, employers, learners, and policymakers. In this conversation, we unpack the diploma divide, the rising cost of education, the friction between what college teaches and what employers expect, and how AI is rewriting the script for entry-level jobs and professional training. Kathleen - whose career spans time as a journalist at ABC News, a Pentagon spokesperson, working at AOL in the early days of the Internet, and a philanthropic force behind education reform - brings not just perspective but practical ideas on how colleges, businesses, and society must adapt. This one challenges what we think college is for, and what meaningful learning might look like in a skills-based future. Enjoy the conversation… Running time: 51:11. Hello from beautiful Montreal.

This episode originally aired in April 2024 and quickly became one of the most popular episodes of The Journey. Whether you're tuning in for the first time or revisiting this conversation, this episode will get you thinking about healing in a toxic culture.   In this episode, Morgan DeBaun sits down with renowned physician, author, and trauma expert, Dr. Gabor Maté, for a thought-provoking conversation about childhood trauma and attachment, the impact of societal norms on parenting, and the healing potential of psychedelics.   In this episode: 00:00 Introduction and Guest Overview 01:30 Dr. Gabor Maté's Early Life and Trauma 04:08 Impact of Early Trauma on Adult Behavior 04:56 The Struggles of a Medical Professional 08:22 Parenting Challenges in Modern Society 13:21 The Importance of Attachment in Child Development 21:30 Balancing Entrepreneurship and Parenting 24:03 Building Strong Parent-Child Relationships 24:38 The Impact of Technology on Children 25:36 Balancing Work and Parenting 28:51 The Importance of Secure Attachment 29:49 Understanding Individuation and Socialization 36:40 The Role of Psychedelics in Healing 45:16 Resources and Final Thoughts   Dr. Maté opens up about his own childhood experiences as a Jewish infant in occupied Hungary, where abandonment and trauma shaped his early years and later influenced his relationships with his children and career. Through personal reflection, Morgan shares her own experiences of growing up with a father whose demanding career kept him often away, and her tendency towards workaholism. She shares how she intends to do things differently with her own child.   As the discussion unfolds, Dr. Maté dives into his belief that we are living in a toxic culture, where stress and societal pressures take a toll on our mental and physical health. He highlights the direct link between our minds and bodies, particularly evident in marginalized groups facing systemic racism. Dr. Maté and Morgan discuss how it is in this context that parents are expected to raise children, and how cultural parenting norms often contradict intuitive caregiving practices, driven by economic necessities rather than emotional well-being.   The episode wraps up with an eye-opening discussion on the potential of psychedelics in healing trauma, with Dr. Maté sharing the emerging research and the need for better access to these powerful tools in mental health care.   To learn more about Dr. Gabor Maté's work discussed in this episode, check out his books The Myth of Normal: Trauma, Illness & Healing In A Toxic Culture and Hold On to Your Kids: Why Parents Need To Matter More Than Peers.   Tune in to this insightful episode, and make sure to leave a rating and review to show your support for these incredibly powerful conversations being had week after week!   More from Dr. Gabor Maté: https://drgabormate.com/ https://www.instagram.com/gabormatemd?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==   Order Rewrite Your Rules: https://www.amazon.com/Rewrite-Your-Rules-Achieve-Freedom/dp/0593725050   Join the Newsletter for More Exclusive Content: https://worksmartprogram.ac-page.com/thejourneypodcast Make sure you are following Morgan's journey on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@morgandebaun?_ Follow us on Instagram: https://instagram.com/thejourneybymdb Produced by MicMoguls.

In this episode, we dive into the complex and urgent realities of human rights in modern society with Dr. William T. Armaline, a professor at San Jos State University and founder of the Human Rights Minor Program and Human Rights Institute. Drawing from his latest book Human Rights Praxis and the Struggle for Survival, Dr. Armaline offers a critical lens on why human rights frameworks often fall short in protecting human dignityespecially under the pressures of global capitalism, systemic racism, and increasing political repression. We explore how capitalist systems are deeply intertwined with racial injustice, the rise of a global police state, and the growing threats to civil liberties and democratic processes in the United States. Dr. Armaline also unpacks the transnational dynamics of migration and how state-led exploitation of migrants reflects broader patterns of human rights abuse. From discussing current U.S. immigration policies to offering insights on the ongoing conflicts in Israel-Palestine and Ukraine-Russia, this conversation confronts the limitations of mainstream human rights discourse and calls for a radical rethinking of justice and survival in the 21st century.https://linktr.ee/purplepoliticalbreakdown

As such, this show has become a zone of excitement & growth for me of sorts, consistently allowing me to open myself up to the unknown, to others subjective viewpoints of the world & to find more meaning in the game of life we are all playing a part in & todays episode is spot on to what I just described. Todays guest & I met some years back & immediately connected over the fact that we both not only spent time in the Cannabis industry, but were both passionate around the truth of Cannabis being a psychedelic medicine, among other things such as our love & affinity for psychedelics, spirituality & entrepreneurship, to name but a few. As such, we talked the last few years about doing a show & the divine timing finally aligned for this week on the show! From a deep dive into his journey, to sharing philosophical thoughts & more, this episode is a window into our personal relationship &, In my opinion, a perfect reminder of why connecting with aligned human beings is so important for each of us during our lives.

He has recently been looking into a topic that's dear to our hearts - the role that Chrstianity played in the social evolution of human society for the last two thousand years.

Echoes of Babel: The Timeless Warning for Modern Society - TS WrightToday's interview revolves around the profound implications of the Tower of Babel narrative, highlighting its relevance in contemporary society. Scott Wright discusses humanity's early quest for unity resulted not in harmony, but in disarray and division, and this lesson resonates with today's technological advancements and societal challenges. We dive into why God's intervention was necessary during this historical moment, suggesting that the potential for human advancement without divine guidance could lead to perilous outcomes, reminiscent of the current technological landscape. We then explore the parallels between Babel and modern initiatives like global governance and artificial intelligence, she emphasizes the inherent risks of pursuing unity apart from God's will. Ultimately listeners are challenged to reflect on the direction of human ambition and the necessity of Christ in the pursuit of true progress and peace.Takeaways: The Tower of Babel serves as a historical cautionary tale regarding humanity's attempts at unity without divine guidance, illustrating the potential for confusion and disarray. God's intervention at Babel was not merely to prevent construction but to protect humanity from advancing beyond His intended purpose for them. Modern technological advancements, particularly in artificial intelligence and global connectivity, resonate with the ambitions exhibited at Babel, raising concerns about ethical governance and autonomy. The discussion highlights the critical importance of integrating Christ into human progress to ensure that advancements do not lead humanity away from God's divine plan. The Abrahamic Accords signify a potential precursor to global unity reminiscent of Babel, prompting believers to be vigilant about the implications of such movements. Scott Wright emphasizes that true unity and peace cannot be achieved outside of God's will, underscoring the need for spiritual guidance amidst collective human endeavors.

Wilderness meets Modern Society -- Seth Kantner Part II Alaska's Seth Kantner is back with us, as promised, for part two. Seth was born in a sod igloo on the Kobuk River in the 1960s and has been hunting, trapping, fishing, and making a life on the land there ever since. He is the author of the novel Ordinary Wolves, considered one of the most powerful, gritty, and true-to-life Alaska books ever written. His non-fiction books, Shopping for Porcupine, Swallowed by the Great Land, and A Thousand Trails Home: Living with Caribou, illustrated with the photos that have made him a world-renowned wildlife photographer, chronicle a life, a people and a landscape tangled in the conflict between the oldest powers of nature, wildlife and wilderness and the storm of changes wrought by the modern Anthropocene. Through it all, he's maintained his profound sense of wonder, and his equally profound sense of humor. He even found time to write a children's book (Pup and Pokey) about the mishaps and adventures of a wolf pup and a porcupine surviving on the tundra. Join us for a freeform conversation with one of the most unique voices of our time.   --- The Podcast & Blast with Hal Herring is brought you by Backcountry Hunters & Anglers and presented by Silencer Central, with additional support from Decked, Dometic, and Filson.  Join Backcountry Hunters & Anglers, the voice for your wild public lands, waters, and wildlife to be part of a passionate community of hunter-angler-conservationists.  BHA.
