Podcasts about Namibia

There are many beautiful countries in Africa, but none are like Namibia.  Today we will travel from the highest sand dunes in the world to the wildest coast on the planet. We will track the last free-roaming herd of rhinos on the continent, and watch desert elephants as we float above them in a hot air balloon.  But more than anything we will discover a sense of vastness and awe that is unmatched by almost anywhere else on Earth. Taking us there is safari guide and author Peter Allison, who has been guiding in Namibia  and elsewhere in Africa for nearly 30 years. He'll tell us the story of his ultimate Namibia safari, traveling from the Sossusvlei Dunes to the Skeleton Coast.  It's an adventure filled with rare wildlife, inspiring people and more than one of his crazy stories. Get ready for a journey into the heart of the remote, and enchanting land of Namibia. Highlights include: Taking a hot air balloon ride watching the sun rise over the Sossusvlei dunes Tracking rare desert elephants and the last remaining free-roaming rhino in the world Spending time with the Himba people of the Hoanib Valley Exploring the Skeleton Coast, where the Atlantic ocean crashes against the Namib desert Sleeping under the stars in one of the largest Dark Sky Reserves in the world FIND OUT MORE A lot of our episodes are about huge expeditions and epic adventures.This one is about something you can actually do.  We've partnered with Peter's safari company Natural Selection Safaris, and tour operator Africa Endeavours - two of the most highly regarded sustainable operators on the continent - to create our dream Botswana itinerary.

Reiseleiter Patrick Hahnrath war auf mehr als 250 Touren unterwegs – doch diese eine Namibia-Reise war anders. Sehr anders. Was mit Skorpionen am Lagerplatz beginnt, führt über Unfälle, Alkohol, Enttäuschungen und ein schlammiges Desaster in der Wüste bis zur Frage: Wie hält man eine Gruppe bei Laune, wenn wirklich alles schief geht? Eine Folge über Grenzerfahrungen und Galgenhumor – und darüber, wie man eine Reise durchsteht, die längst gescheitert ist.----------------------------------Über das Format "Weltwach Reiseflops":Niemand scheitert gern – auch nicht auf Reisen. Aber im Nachhinein betrachtet ergeben die kleinen (und etwas größeren) Pleiten und Pannen unterwegs oft die schönsten Erinnerungen – und amüsantesten Geschichten.Genau die gibt es in dieser Show: Weltwach-Moderator Erik Lorenz zelebriert mit seinen Gästen genüsslich Stories von großen Rückschlägen und kleinen Fettnäpfchen, von Zumutungen und schmerzhaft erlangten Einsichten, fernab von Instagramability und aalglatten Abenteuergeschichten. Warum? Weil ein bisschen Schadenfreude glücklich macht. Und weil sich immer wieder zeigt: Hinter der Niederlage lauern wertvolle Lektionen. So mündet auch das hingebungsvollste Jammern für gewöhnlich unweigerlich: in einer Liebeserklärung an das Reisen. Du hast einen wahnsinnig witzigen oder lehrreichen Reiseflop erlebt und möchtest uns davon erzählen? Großartig!

Send us a textYear's end is the perfect time to chase moments that help us fall in love with travel. We stitch together a lively route from New York's Erie Canal's quiet power to Namibia's Etosha, where elephants, zebra, and predators converge around water in an arid dreamscape. Along the way, we meet a winemaker who steers us into Spain's Alicante desert for a paella cooked over grapevines—one fire, one broth, no second chances—and learn why constraint can turn a meal into a memory that lasts.Our path bends to Sorrento, a flat and beautiful Italian base that opens to Capri, Ischia, and the Amalfi Coast. We talk walkable alleys, lemon groves that become limoncello, and sunset cocktails on cliffside terraces. We ride rails through Canada at sunrise and across Switzerland where a simple coffee sparks a love story. In Mexico City, lucha libre proves that travel joy can be loud, communal, and gloriously acrobatic, while Barcelona Spain lifts the spirit with castellers human towers, Sant Jordi's books and roses, and music festivals that sweep from legends to up-and-comers.We step into sacred time in Assisi in Italy's Umbrian region, to see Giotto's frescoes and St. Francis's world, then cross to India's Agra Fort where Shah Jahan arranged his bed and even a small mirror to keep the Taj Mahal always in view. Add a few delightful detours—a red-clay miniature golf course in Normandy, train-station romance in Belgium, a harmonica gifted to a child in a Ugandan forest (and a musical moment)!If these stories spark your curiosity, hit follow, and share with a friend who needs new trip ideas, Then dig into our archive of over 120 episodes to plan where your next unforgettable moment will begin.**Our guests this past year are a mix of travel pros and travel enthusiasts -- and all of them have insightful tips and stories to tell.**Podcast host Lea Lane has traveled to over 100 countries, and has written nine books, including the award-winning Places I Remember  (Kirkus Reviews star rating, and  'one of the top 100 Indie books of  the year').

Perra de Satán nos trae un menú tan variado como inquietante: desde Richard Gere encendiendo luces navideñas en Murcia hasta un Adolf Hitler que podría ganar unas elecciones en Namibia (spoiler: es negro y progresista). Además, científicos cordobeses descubren cómo convertir caca en baterías para coches eléctricos, un osito de peluche con IA que da consejos sexuales a niños, y cerramos con broche de oro visitando el Museo de las Relaciones Rotas en Croacia, donde un dildo negro nos hace reflexionar sobre el amor, el desamor y el reciclaje de juguetes eróticos.

Imagina tropezar con un naufragio... ¡en medio de un desierto! Suena imposible, ¿verdad? Pero eso es exactamente lo que ocurrió con el Bom Jesus, un reconocido tesoro que se perdió en el mar hace 500 años y que de alguna manera acabó enterrado bajo la arena en Namibia. Resulta que el barco fue atrapado por una tormenta, se hundió, y con el tiempo, las arenas movedizas lo devoraron, ocultando su oro, marfil y artefactos antiguos durante siglos. Cuando finalmente los mineros de diamantes lo descubrieron, encontraron cofres llenos de monedas de oro—básicamente un momento de película de piratas en la vida real. ¿Quién hubiera pensado que un desierto podría ocultar un barco lleno de tesoros?

In our tour of Sub Saharran Africa, Alex followed a recommendation from Thiang'o to talk with Ripura Hewick. Ripura is based in Namibia, and manages a dryland farm for the non-profit Steps for Children.   Ripura started as a traditional Agrobusiness management student University of Science and Technology (NUST) graduate with a Bachelors of Agriculture  but left conventional agriculture, disappointed in the business. After a hiatus he returned to as a farm manager of a permaculture project connected to one of Steps for Children's schools.    In this interview, Ripura describes the unlearning and relearning process he had to go through to figure out how to successfully build a community integrated market garden, that provides nutrition, education and seedlings for the local community.

In this episode, hosts Ray Powell and Jim Carouso welcome Dr. Alvin Camba, a sociologist who studies Southeast Asian political economies, China relations, and critical mineral supply chains. Camba, author of the New America article "The Jakarta Model is No Blueprint," critiques Indonesia's export ban on raw nickel and incentives for domestic refining, which have driven economic growth and positioned the country as a key EV battery supplier but have also resulted in severe human and environmental costs.​​Growth at what cost? Camba explains the "Jakarta model” - policies forcing mining firms to sell domestically, spurring smelters and industrial parks but creating oligopsonies where refiners dictate low prices, triggering a "race to the bottom" in mining practices. This has led to widespread environmental damage like air pollution, acid leakage, water contamination, land grabs, and health issues, including rising asthma and cancer rates near facilities since 2019, while workers endure 10-12 hour shifts over six-day weeks.​Impressive parks, hidden harms: Inside sites like those in Sulawesi, visitors see advanced infrastructure with airports, ports, hotels, and thousands of workers, often funding local clinics and schools, which sustains public support despite scandals. Yet, mining outside these parks produces tailings dumps and forest clearance, while smelters emit pollutants into the air and rivers; in Kalimantan, bauxite processing creates radioactive red mud waste.​Global copycats and Western challenges: Countries like Namibia, Nigeria, Zimbabwe, and the Philippines eye the model for capital influx, often ignoring downsides amid weakened environmental oversight and political ties to Chinese joint ventures dominating smelters. Camba urges slower development with strong regulations, consultations, and transparency; for the West, building refining capacity requires market incentives to counter China's cheap, dirty dominance, with short-term reserves bridging gaps amid U.S.-China standoffs over rare earths and semiconductors.​

Imagine stumbling across a shipwreck… in the middle of a desert! Sounds impossible, right? But that's exactly what happened with the long-lost Bom Jesus, a 500-year-old treasure ship that vanished off the coast of Africa and somehow ended up buried under sand in Namibia. Turns out, the ship got caught in a storm, sank, and over time, shifting sands swallowed it up, hiding its gold, ivory, and ancient artifacts for centuries. When diamond miners finally uncovered it, they found chests full of gold coins—basically a real-life pirate movie moment! Who knew the desert could hide a ship full of treasure?

Hoy viajamos a un destino que parece surgido de la imaginación de un escritor fantástico, pero que es totalmente real: Swakopmund, en Namibia, el lugar donde dos mundos que no deberían encontrarse… se encuentran.

Welcome to episode 121 of The Journey Is the Reward!All good flights must come to an end, and sadly, the incredible 15-day Southern Africa adventure of a lifetime is concluding! Join Brian and crew as their journey wraps up and they depart Botswana.  Fortunately, he remembers to pull out the microphone at the airport lounge to capture a fantastic conversation with the rest of the crew: Barb, Jim, Gerrit, and Malin. It's a bittersweet moment as the group parts ways, with Gerrit and Malin flying off to Windhoek, Namibia, while Barb, Jim, and Brian head to Johannesburg for the final leg of their "flight plan." This last push includes important city sightseeing in both Johannesburg and Pretoria, one last chance for thrilling game drive, and immersive museum visits. Of course, the trip wouldn't be complete without a crucial stop for souvenirs! The crew made sure they filled their suitcases with treasures and gifts discovered at the Artisan Market at the Rosebank Mall for everyone back home. It seems like only yesterday the trip started, but a very quick 15 days later, the adventure was over, sealed with the memory of the utterly soul-stirring, goosebump-inducing sounds of the Madalitso Youth Choir! You'll hear their poignant Welcome and Goodbye songs, recorded straight from the Royal Livingston Hotel in Zambia, adding pure magic to this final African episode.

Additionally, we discuss the benefits of the coming big board US exchange listing.   Third Quarter 2025 Highlights    Record revenue of $8.1 million, an increase of 155% over Q3 2024.  Record attributable gold equivalent ounces (“GEOs”) of 2,699, an increase of 110% over Q3 2024.  Record operating cash flow before working capital changes of $6.1 million, an increase of 206% over Q3 2024.  Acquisition of a significant silver stream on the operating Rosh Pinah Zinc mine in Namibia and a polymetallic royalty on the operating Santa Rita mine in Brazil, both operated by Appian Capital Advisory Limited (“Appian”).  Inaugural royalty revenues from the Kiaka and Santa Rita mines.     Paul reviews the record Q3 revenues, GEOs and cash flow, and highlighted the immediate benefits of company's recent largest transaction to date with the acquisition of a significant silver stream on Rosh Pinah Zinc, a high-quality mine in Namibia that is currently undergoing an expansion, and a royalty on Santa Rita in Brazil, a top tier nickel-sulphide mine. The addition of these expanding cash-flowing assets have had a significant impact to Versamet's combined gold equivalent ounces, with ~10,000 GEOs projected in 2025, and up to ~20,000 GEOs by 2026.  This translates over to ~$70M in annual revenue targeted for next year, using consensus gold prices, and even higher than that at current spot prices.   We go on to discuss with Paul the Company's current valuation, their plans for growth through accretive acquisitions, and the advantage of the mid-size deal flow they can pursue as one of only a few mid-tier precious metals royalty and streaming companies.   Wrapping up Paul highlights the strong endorsement of the quality of their assets from the recent news of Tether Investments S.A. de C.V. and the Lundin Family Trusts both coming in as new 12.7% cornerstone shareholders of the Company respectively.  We also review the liquidity benefits, broader investor base, and potential for more ETF inclusion through the coming U.S. big board exchange listing.     If you have any questions for Paul regarding Versamet Royalties, then please email those in to us at Fleck@kereport.com or Shad@kereport.com.   Click here to follow the latest news from Versamet Royalties   For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/   Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

Die Bank van Namibië het Suid-Afrika se onlangse aanpassing van sy inflasie-teiken verwelkom. Die wysiging verlaag die vorige teikenreeks van 3 tot 6 persent na 'n vaste 3 persent, met 'n toleransieband van 1 persentasiepunt aan weerskante. As lid van die Algemene Monetêregebied sal Namibia direk die uitwerking van hierdie beleidsverandering ervaar. Volgens die BoN kan die laer inflasieteiken verskeie voordelige gevolge inhou, soos die bank se Naufike Hamunime verduidelik.

¿Entrenar con una vida caótica? Miguel lo hace desde África El problema que todos conocemos: Tienes una carrera en mente, pero tu vida es un caos. Viajes de trabajo, niños, imprevistos... y esa planificación perfecta que encontraste en internet se queda en el cajón porque la realidad te atropella. ¿Te suena? Miguel Martín vive esto a otro nivel. Este mallorquín lleva 15 años en África, actualmente en Santo Tomé y Príncipe. Viaja constantemente entre Guinea-Bissau, Lisboa, Madrid... Tiene dos hijas, dirige proyectos de ingeniería, gestiona un hotel Y está preparando la Media Maratón de Sables de Namibia (108 km en 3 etapas, nada menos). Su vida no tiene rutina. Y aún así, entrena. La clave no es entrenar mucho, es entrenar bien. Como dice Miguel: "Antes usaba ChatGPT para mis planes de entrenamiento. Ahora tengo comunicación real, ajustes constantes y alguien que entiende que hay semanas en las que las niñas se ponen malas o estoy en un país donde correr 3 horas en cinta es infernal" La flexibilidad no es excusa, es estrategia. No hay plan perfecto, hay plan inicial que se adapta. Y aquí viene el bonus: Miguel también organiza la Maratón Internacional de Santo Tomé y Príncipe (última semana de junio). Una carrera solidaria en uno de los países menos visitados del mundo. 263 atletas el último año. Avituallamientos cada 2 km. Paisajes de película ‍♂️ ¿La moraleja?

This afternoon, the Home Secretary will set out in the House of Commons her proposed reforms to the asylum system. The headline changes proposed by Shabana Mahmood have been well briefed in the weekend press: refugees will have temporary status and be required to reapply to remain in Britain every two-and-a-half years; those arriving would have to wait 20 years before they can apply for permanent settlement; and countries that refuse to take back migrants will be threatened with visa bans – Angola, Namibia and the Democratic Republic of Congo are among those likely to be initially punished. Is she the one to finally take on the migration crisis?Lucy Dunn speaks to Tim Shipman and James Heale.Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.

TALK long enough about green shipping scenarios and sooner or later all roads lead to Africa. Africa's renewable energy potential, particularly in solar and wind, is vast and largely untapped, which explains why green energy investment in Africa is booming. Imports of solar panels, largely from China, are up 60% in the past 12 months alone. While that is from a relatively low base, the investments are coming thick and fast when it comes to clean fuel production. Given the collapse of the Net-Zero Framework at the International Maritime Organization and the context of a somewhat lacklustre COP out in Brazil, you may well be asking yourself: “why am I listening to yet another decarbonisation diatribe?” Regardless of the headline political headwinds, the business case for green shipping projects continues to be relevant. And if you're looking for some optimism to get you through some admittedly uncertain times when it comes to shipping's decarbonisation agenda, Africa is good place to start. This week's episode of the podcast travels to Namibia and South Africa, via a green corridor into Europe, to understand why Africa could hold the key to shipping's decarbonisation. Joining Richard on this week's podcast are: Alexander Saverys, chief executive, CMB.Tech Jesse Fahnestock, decarbonisation director, Global Maritime Forum James Mnyupe, senior vice-president sub-Saharan Africa, Thyssenkrupp Subscribe to Lloyd's List: www.lloydslistintelligence.com/products/…oyds-list Learn more about Lloyd's List Intelligence: www.lloydslistintelligence.com/

Over in the UK, Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood plans to impose visa bans on three African countries if they fail to take back their illegal migrants. Angola, Namibia and the Democratic Republic of Congo face visa sanctions set to block tourists, VIPs and business officials from travelling to Britain if they don't co-operate. UK correspondent Gavin Grey says the Government is hoping to reassure voters it can be tough on migration amid concerns from the opposition.

Reaksie word ontvang op vervoerminister Veikko Nekundi se aankondiging dat die kabinet die naam vir die land se nuwe nasionale lugredery goedgekeur het. Dit sal as Namibia Air funksioneer en sal na verwagting in die volgende boekjaar vorm aanneem. Kosmos 94.1 Nuus het met 'n voormalige Air Namibia-vlieënier Vijay Jha gepraat, wat sy mening oor die verwikkelinge gee.

This episode is brought to you by Villa Carina Apartments in beautiful Bonaire. In this episode, we sit down with Björn Dunkerbeck, the 56-year-old windsurfing legend with 42 PWA World Titles (more than any athlete in any sport), 32+ years with Red Bull, and a personal best of 103.68 km/h over 500 m. Fresh off double-hip surgery and pain-free for the first time in years, Björn joins Luc from Lüderitz, Namibia, where he's chasing the outright windsurf speed world record during the month-long November window at the infamous Lüderitz Speed Channel. From the early days of 16-knot records in Weymouth to breaking 50 knots in a hand-dug Namibian trench, Björn walks us through the 50-year evolution of speed sailing, the physics of wind angle, water flatness, and why 8–10 m wide is now “as good as it gets” for a channel you can't fall out of at 100 km/h.Channel Evolution & Record Progression: How speed sailing jumped from 30 knots in the South of France to 40 in Saint-Marie-la-Mer, 45 by Thierry Bielak, then exploded in Walvis Bay and finally Lüderitz—where a kitesurfer named Sebastien Cattelan dug the first trench, and six riders broke 50 knots in one week (2012–13).Lüderitz 2025 Setup: Björn's first sessions in “perfect south-easter” conditions, why 45–50 knots of wind is the sweet spot before chop kills speed, and how a scratched fin or lack of starting-area depth can end your run before it begins.Post-Surgery Comeback: At 115 kg and 56 years young, how titanium hips have restored confidence, why Severne sails (5.2–5.7 m²), 40 cm Starboard speed boards, and custom fins are dialed, and the mental edge of knowing “I can still do this.”Gear & Technique for 100 km/h: Why boards are only 227 cm long / 35–45 L, how you rail the upwind third of the channel, and the art of body-position micro-adjustments to keep a 40 cm board from catapulting in full-power 5.2 conditions.Wipeouts & Safety: “Your day is over after a big one.” Helmet + impact vest = minimum; grit + not crashing = the real safety plan.Getting Into Speed Sailing: Download the WaterSpeed app (free), track your 100 m / 250 m / 500 m times anywhere, then upload to GPS-SpeedSurfing.com and join the Dunkerbeck Speed Challenge (50+ countries, 10th year running). Start on whatever gear you have—25 knots becomes 30, then 40…Family Legacy: Four kids, two girls, two boys. Son Liam (17)—triple U21 wave world champ, former U18 Lüderitz record holder (80+ km/h)—currently training on Maui. Youngest Daniel (13 next week) already ripping waves and speed. How Björn transitioned from pro dominance to proud dad without losing the fire.Bonaire & Dunkerbeck Pro Center: 10 years strong at Sorobon's turquoise lagoon—Defi Wind Bonaire returns June 16–21, 2026 (111 spots only). From 5-year-olds in harnesses to 90-year-olds still planing, it's the world's safest speed playground.Foiling vs Fin: Björn's light-wind foil arsenal (6.0–10.0 m² + Phantom 960/1950/910 wings) as low-wind speed training, why foils won't touch Lüderitz (not enough depth, too much drag), and whether sub-40 cm masts could ever push foils past 100 km/h.The Limit? Björn's take: 100 km/h average on 500 m is very possible; top speed >103.68 km/h likely. Beyond 105 km/h, cavitation theories split the experts—we'll know when we get there.Red Bull Family: 32 years, 800+ athletes, from windsurfing's early days to F1 and America's Cup. Plus Björn's long involvement with Wings for Life spinal cord research.Follow Björn - https://www.instagram.com/bjorndunkerbeckDunkerbeck Speed Challenge - https://www.GPS-SpeedSurfing.comWaterSpeed App - Free downloadLüderitz Speed Channel live updates all November!

Die Desert Research Foundation of Namibia het 'n uitreikgeleentheid by die San Mobile Training Centre in die Omaheke-streek gelei, met die fokus op die bemagtiging van die San-gemeenskap, regsbewustheid en inklusiewe ontwikkeling. Vier jong San-vroue – opgelei oor die jare deur die Small Grants Program en die Canadian Local Initiatives Fund – het die werkswinkel gefasiliteer. Kosmos 94.1 Nuus het met Belinda Thanises van die stigting gepraat.

By COP30 in Brasilië het Andrew Johnstone, uitvoerende hoof van Climate Fund Managers, Namibië se ambisieuse klimaatsverbintenisse onder die Parys-ooreenkoms geprys. Hy het die Namibia One Fund uitgelig, 'n gemengde finansieringsinisiatief wat openbare en private beleggings lok om die land se groenwaterstofsektor en infrastruktuur te versterk.

Die vervoerminister, Veikko Nekundi, sê die kabinet het die naam vir die land se nuwe nasionale lugredery goedgekeur. Dit sal as Namibia Air funksioneer, en gestig kragtens maatskappywetgewing met die regering as enigste aandeelhouer. Die nuwe redery sal na verwagting in die volgende boekjaar vorm aanneem. Nekundi het bevestig dat 'n tegniese komitee bestaande uit plaaslike lugvaartkundiges gestig is om die lugredery se skepping te lei, met die fokus op die versekering van die langtermyn volhoubaarheid en finansiële lewensvatbaarheid daarvan. Hy het met OneAfrica gepraat.

If French rugby is fine wine, the Boks uncorked it, chugged it straight from the bottle, and smashed the glass on the way out. The Springboks have once again marched into Paris like uninvited houseguests, stomping mud across the carpets, smashing the crockery, and pocketing a few heirlooms for good measure. France looked overrated, outmuscled, and utterly unable to dent the Bok defence, while the refereeing circus gave us scrums that made no sense, a red card that raised eyebrows, and yellows that felt more like lottery tickets. Rassie's substitutions were bold, Siya's leadership was immense, and Esterhuizen looked every bit the golden key to unlock this side. Sasha or Manie — who's really the man (hint, it's still Pollard)? Meanwhile, the 9s are bringing the heat, but KLA might not be it. Beyond Paris, the Northern Hemisphere chorus of “we're undercooked” rang out again, conveniently forgetting that the shoe is on the other foot every June. Italy toppled Australia, leaving us wondering if Joe Schmidt's fire has fizzled. Scotland spooked themselves against New Zealand in what quickly became the DMac show. England scraped past Fiji, though the islanders could easily have stolen it, with refereeing once again in the spotlight. Wales, poor Wales, were left licking wounds after Argentina gave them another bruising reminder of reality. And in the background, World Cup qualification permutations rumble on: Namibia struggling, Belgium proving they're more than just chips. It was a weekend of broken narratives, hot takes, and Southern Hemisphere swagger, and we're here to stir the pot with all the banter you can handle. Music by @monstroid, 80s TV Show

Special Episode — Recorded live at the Oppenheimer Research Conference 2025. What does it really take to make wildlife land use financially sustainable? Veterinarian and impact-investing specialist Dr. Susan De Witt explores the economics behind conservation, from private conservancies to community lands. She explains how revenue models (photographic tourism, hunting, live sales, and wildlife meat) interact with property rights, wildlife user rights, and access to finance. We unpack the successes of Namibia's community conservancies, lessons from South Africa's private sector, and what it will take to channel capital toward conservation that pays people fairly and protects ecosystems.

Na raming maak 58 persent van Namibië se werksmag hul bestaan uit die informele sektor. Dit is onthul deur die uitvoerende direkteur in die ministerie van finansies, Michael Humavindu. Humavindu het vanoggend tydens die bekendstelling van die verslag getiteld Diagnostics of Informality in Namibia gesê dat die informele sektor se bydrae tot die BBP teen 2025 op 26,5 persent staan. Ten spyte hiervan het hy gesê dat die sektor tans in 'n baie bestraffende regulatoriese omgewing funksioneer, nie as 'n vennoot wat bemagtig moet word nie.

Omer Bartov, an Israeli-American scholar and Dean's Professor of Holocaust and Genocide Studies at Brown University, reviews the definition of genocide as established within the Genocide Convention of 1948 as he analyses the trajectory of events in Gaza from 7 October 2023 to the Spring 2024 when the IDF moved into Rafah and proceeded systematically destroy Gaza with the goal of making it unhinhabitable for its population. Noting that the Knesset used 7 October as an opportunity to ethnically cleanse the Gaza Strip, he observes that Israel's actions proved unsuccessful since there was no place to push the Palestinians. This is the moment, Bartov observes, when the situation devolved into genocide, resembling many other genocides throughout the 20th century, which began as ethnic cleansing but ended up as the mass killing of populations. Declaring that by July 2025, a consensus had been formed among the majority of genocide scholars and experts in international law, he expresses astonishment at the fact that legacy media have still not begun to employ the term “genocide” to describe what is now an agreed fact by international experts. Historicising how ethnic cleansing often turns into genocide, Bartov offers examples from the Germans' ethnic cleansing turned genocide of the Herero in what is present-day Namibia, the Armenian genocide by Türkiye, where vast numbers of Armenians were pushed into the Syrian desert and perished, to the coextensive labour and extermination camps of the Nazis during World War II. Addressing the reality that many Israelis and Jews, when they hear the word “genocide,” they think of the Holocaust, Bartov criticises this mentality since the Holocaust has become a central theme within Israeli national identity since the 1980s. He contends that Israelis view the Holocaust as “not only something that happened in the past, it is something that can happen any moment. That we are always under existential threat…And that threat is represented by the Palestinians.” Bartov explains that this genocide is, in part, a reaction to fear within the core of Israeli identity that has resulted in Israel's mass murder of Palestinians, largely because Israelis view Palestinians as their existential threat.

With the inaugural edition of Gravel Burn in the rearview mirror, Payson sits down with Bradyn Lange for an overall recap. Due to illness, Bradyn wasn't able to compete in the pro field and instead dropped in partway through the seven-day event to capture some media from inside the bunch. Then, Payson, chats with Dan Craven, a former professional road racer from Namibia who served as Gravel Burn commissaire. He talks about his long-standing involvement with the event and his unique perspective on how it unfolded. This episode was brought to you by TrainingPeaks.Instagram: @withpacepodcastYouTube: Payson McElveen Email: howdy@withpace.cc

It's cold. It's wet. Maybe it's even snowing. Outside is always the best side, of course, but sometimes the only realistic option is to put your Bike on the trainer and get after it inside. Today's sponsored podcast sees Levy sit down with Marek-Martin Matyska, Product Director at Rouvy, to chat about all things indoor training. Founded in the early 2000s by two brothers in the Czech Republic, Rouvy has grown to offer thousands of routes across six continents, from legendary European climbs to North American epics and scenic tours of New Zealand. Have you ever ridden in Namibia? Me neither, but now you can teleport yourself to the coast of Southern Africa at the push of a button . Matyska explains Rouvy's total focus on realism, how they're able to include so many ride options, and whether gravel and singletrack are on the menu. He also details the new Route Creator feature that allows users to build (and edit) their own realistic video routes while adding augmented reality features, and Levy has to ask if he's able to add chasing UFOs or zombies for “extra motivation.” This podcast is sponsored by Rouvy.
