The Warm Up Track 2026: Sinesipho Dambile – Bolt had his era, I want to have mine

South Africa's Sinesipho Dambile won the first big gold of his career in 2026, taking the Commonwealth Games 200 metres title in Glasgow. It was special for so many reasons. When he was growing up, he remembered vividly Akanni Simbine coming to his school to speak to them about winning the 2018 Commonwealth 100 metres gold. Sinesipho made the most of the opportunity to ask South Africa's brand-new Commonwealth sprint champion plenty of questions - and later Simbine wouldn't just be a mentor, he'd be a team-mate as well.We relive the semi-final and the final in Glasgow. Sinesipho was the only athlete at the Games to break 20 seconds, doing so in both of his races. But, having laid down a marker winning his semi-final so convincingly, what was it like lining up for the final as the favourite? He knew that all of South Africa would be watching and willing him to bring home the gold. When he crossed the line, the first thing he saw was South African fans in the stands and the celebrations began. But his greatest supporter has always been his Mum, so what did she say when he called her later that night?Sinesipho tells us all about where he grew up and how his village had produced stars before, in rugby union and in track and field. He discusses how it feels to be a part of that legacy and to add to it. He also explains why it's so important to him to have followed in the footsteps of an all-time great like Namibia's Frankie Fredericks, who was the last African man to win the Commonwealth 200 metres gold.The men's 200 metres at the London 2012 Olympics is a special race as far as Sinesipho is concerned. It's his favourite performance by Usain Bolt. The Jamaican started out as a 200 metres specialist before adding the 100 to his repertoire and then dominating both sprints, setting the world records which have stood since 2009. That's the pathway Sinesipho wants to tread as well - so what advice did Bolt share with him when they met in Tokyo during the 2025 World Championships?We explore the mental side of sprinting and Sinesipho explains how hard he's worked to maintain and improve his focus. That's impacted everything from how he trains to how he behaves when he's out on the Diamond League circuit. How does he make sure he feels at home in those cities and what does he like to do when the season's over and he really can go home to his family and friends?This is an era of unprecedented success for South African sprinting. Sinesipho is among those leading the way and describes the environment that's enabled him and his international team-mates to rise to the top.Sinesipho believes that fate chooses you and, when it does, accepting the pressure that comes with that is a privilege. He explains why the World and Olympic 200 metres gold medals are the next step, and the planning that's already gone into topping the podium in Beijing and Los Angeles.Photo: Gold medalist Sinesipho Dambile of Team South Africa poses for a photo during the medal ceremony for Men's 200 Metres Final during the Athletics on day eight of the Glasgow 2026 Commonwealth Games at Scotstoun Stadium on July 31, 2026 in Glasgow, Scotland.

ReconAfrica CEO Brian Reinsborough joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide an update on the company's expanding African energy portfolio, highlighting progress at its KW1X discovery well in Namibia, encouraging exploration results in Angola, and ongoing seismic work offshore Gabon. Reinsborough said flow test samples from the KW1X sidetrack well have confirmed the presence of thermogenic natural gas with liquid potential, indicating a mature petroleum system ranging from late-oil to early-gas generation. The company is now preparing for a horizontal drilling and flow-testing program designed to assess deliverability, reservoir pressure response, and potential liquid yields from the discovery. The Jarvie-1 drilling rig has returned to site, maintenance has been completed, and required equipment is either on location or in transit. ReconAfrica has submitted all necessary regulatory amendments and, subject to approvals, expects to begin drilling a horizontal wellbore of up to 1,000 metres in October. The well will be completed open-hole to maximize flow from natural fractures and porous zones, with testing scheduled immediately after drilling. Beyond Namibia, ReconAfrica reported encouraging preliminary results from a soil sampling program on its acreage in Angola. The findings suggest an active thermogenic petroleum system with liquid hydrocarbon potential, similar to the geology encountered on the Namibian side of the Damara Fold Belt. The company is considering a 2D seismic program in 2027 to further define exploration targets in the region. In Gabon, ReconAfrica continues to advance 3D seismic reprocessing at the Ngulu project using state-of-the-art Full Waveform Inversion technology. The work is expected to be completed by year-end and will support a new resource assessment, appraisal well planning, and further evaluation of the Loba oil discovery and broader exploration potential across the concession. #proactiveinvestors #reconnaissanceenergyafricaltd #tsxv #reco #otcqx #recaf #OilAndGas #NaturalGas #Namibia #Angola #Gabon #Energy #Exploration #EnergyStocks #ResourceInvesting #ProactiveInvestors #EnergyTransition

What camera gear do you actually need for getting into wildlife photography? And perhaps just as importantly, what don't you need?In this episode, Court sits down with Allison McLaughlin for a deep dive into building a wildlife photography kit, particularly for beginner and intermediate photographers. They cover everything from why autofocus tracking and telephoto reach matter so much for wildlife, to the advantages of crop sensors, zoom lenses, used gear, and even sticking with a DSLR for a little longer.They also get very specific, working through approachable camera bodies and wildlife lenses from Canon, Nikon, Sony, Fujifilm, and OM System/Micro Four Thirds. Along the way, Court and Allison talk about how much telephoto reach you really need, why a 600mm lens isn't automatically better than a 400mm lens, and why the wide end of a telephoto zoom can be every bit as important as the long end.Perhaps the biggest lesson from this conversation is that your next camera does not have to be your final camera. Wildlife photography gear can get expensive very quickly, but there is a huge amount of excellent equipment available one or two generations back, particularly on the used market.Connect with Allison: https://www.reddit.com/user/mpbcom/Cameras MentionedCanonCanon EOS R50View the Canon EOS R50Canon EOS R10View the Canon EOS R10Canon EOS 7D Mark IIView the Canon EOS 7D Mark IICanon EOS 5D Mark IVView the Canon EOS 5D Mark IVNikonNikon Z50 IIView the Nikon Z50 IINikon D500View the Nikon D500Nikon Z8View the Nikon Z8SonySony A6100View the Sony A6100Sony A6400View the Sony A6400Sony A6600View the Sony A6600Sony A1View the Sony A1Sony A1 IIView the Sony A1 IIFujifilmFujifilm X-T30 IIView the Fujifilm X-T30 IIFujifilm X-S10View the Fujifilm X-S10OM SystemOM System OM-5View the OM System OM-5Lenses MentionedCanonCanon RF 100-400mm f/5.6-8 IS USMA lightweight, relatively affordable RF wildlife zoom that Allison specifically highlights as a strong starting point.View the Canon RF 100-400mmCanon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS USMThe transcript does not specify which generation of the EF 100-400mm, so both versions are included here.View the original Canon EF 100-400mmView the Canon EF 100-400mm IINikonTamron 70-300mm f/4.5-6.3 Di III RXD for Nikon ZOne of Allison's budget-conscious recommendations for someone building a Nikon Z wildlife kit.View the Tamron 70-300mm Nikon ZNikon AF-S Nikkor 200-500mm f/5.6E ED VRAn older F-mount wildlife favorite that can also be adapted to Nikon Z bodies.View the Nikon 200-500mmSonySony E 70-350mm f/4.5-6.3 G OSSAllison's standout recommendation for Sony APS-C wildlife shooters.View the Sony 70-350mm G OSSSony FE 200-600mm f/5.6-6.3 G OSSDiscussed as an excellent example of the versatile long-telephoto range that works especially well for wildlife and birds.View the Sony 200-600mmSony FE 400-800mm f/6.3-8 G OSSAn example of just how much reach modern wildlife lenses can provide, while also illustrating why the minimum focal length of a zoom matters.View the Sony 400-800mmSony FE 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 GM OSSThe Sony 100-400mm is also discussed when comparing versatile wildlife zoom ranges.View the Sony 100-400mm GM OSSFujifilmFujifilm XF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 R LM OIS WRAllison's pick for a compact Fuji wildlife setup, with stabilization and weather resistance.View the Fujifilm XF 70-300mmMicro Four Thirds / OM SystemOlympus M.Zuiko 150-400mm f/4.5 TC1.25X IS PROThe lens Court used in Namibia, giving a tremendous effective focal range on the Micro Four Thirds system.View the Olympus 150-400mmOlympus M.Zuiko Digital 75-300mmAllison recommends the 75-300mm range as an especially compact way to get roughly a 150-600mm full-frame equivalent field of view.

A ten month sabbatical that included conservation photography work in South Africa, cheetah documentation in Namibia and a trip to Antarctica changed the direction of her life entirely. She launched her first exhibition in 2011 and spent five years living and travelling Australia in a motorhome with her partner, covering stretches of the country most people never see. These days her work centres on aerial photography, flying over salt lakes, flood plains and working sheep stations by drone and light aircraft, finding abstract paintings in the Australian landscape from above. In this episode Nilmini talks about discovering drone photography during COVID, repeated recognition in the Siena Drone Awards, how editing reveals muted aerial colour and texture, and using competitions and exhibitions as tools for honest feedback and craft development.

intana Energy CEO Robert Bose joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide an update on the company's expanding exposure to Angola and the upcoming exploration program at the highly prospective KON-16 block, while also outlining several key catalysts across its broader international portfolio. Bose said Sintana has structured its investment in KON-16 to provide significant upside while maintaining a capital-efficient approach. The company holds a small direct working interest in the block, along with a 2.5% profits interest on the first $50 million of profits generated from the project. Thereafter, Sintana would retain a 1.5% profits interest. According to Bose, the company's strategy has always focused on gaining exposure to potentially transformational discoveries without assuming the full capital burden typically associated with large-scale exploration projects. One of the most compelling aspects of KON-16 is its geological setting within Angola's Kwanza Basin, a region known for its prolific pre-salt petroleum systems. Bose explained that the basin offers a rare combination of offshore-scale resource potential with significantly lower onshore drilling costs. Technical work conducted over the last 18 months has identified several initial prospects believed to contain more than 300 million barrels of recoverable oil. At the same time, individual exploration wells are expected to cost less than $25 million to drill, creating what Bose described as a highly attractive risk-reward proposition. Planning for the first exploration well continues to move forward, with drilling currently expected to begin during the first half of next year. The company and its partners are advancing operational preparations and well design work while simultaneously evaluating opportunities to further strengthen the project through strategic partnerships. Bose noted that interest from potential farm-in partners has been encouraging, with several significant industry participants expressing interest in the project. Bringing in a partner could help reduce capital requirements and further de-risk the planned two-well exploration campaign while maintaining meaningful upside exposure. In Namibia, activity continues on PEL-83, where exploration and appraisal programs remain active as companies seek to build on the country's recent offshore exploration success. Another exploration well in the Orange Basin is expected during the fourth quarter, providing additional near-term news flow and potential value catalysts. The company is also advancing farm-out discussions related to its assets in Uruguay as it seeks to attract partners capable of accelerating exploration activity while preserving capital. In Colombia, Bose said Sintana continues to work toward completing a transaction involving its legacy asset position, a move that could further streamline the company's portfolio and sharpen its focus on high-impact exploration opportunities. #proactiveinvestors #sintanaenergyinc #tsxv #sei #otcqb #seusf #OilAndGas #Angola #KON16 #KwanzaBasin #EnergyExploration #Namibia #OrangeBasin #PEL83 #OilDiscovery #EnergyStocks #ResourceInvesting #FrontierExploration #EnergySector #OilAndGasInvesting

An odd tale of a pitcher unboxing a stuffed and mounted boar in the clubhouse leads to speculation about the nature of marriage and the trial of giving gifts and getting what you want at the same time. Then we check in on the Great War Exploits of one of the less celebrated Negro Leagues greats, speculate of how his homecoming could have been in a different America, and note missed opportunities to learn from the world around us, whether via the Harlem Hellfighters or the ill-fated Herrero tribe of Namibia, both of which found themselves up against the same opponent. The Infinite Inning is a journey to the past to understand the present using baseball as our time machine. America's brighter mirror, baseball reflects, anticipates, and even mocks the stories we tell ourselves about our world today. Baseball Prospectus's Steven Goldman shares his obsessions: history from inside and outside of the game, politics, stats, and Casey Stengel quotations. Along the way, we'll try to solve the puzzle that is the Infinite Inning: How do you find the joy in life when you can't get anybody out?

Part of SAND's The Great AI Unraveling Series Artificial intelligence is often framed as a leap forward, a technical revolution, or an inevitable stage in human progress. But what if AI is also asking us to confront something older: the colonial logic embedded in how we define intelligence, progress, neutrality, knowledge, and the human itself? This conversation brought together voices working across technology, culture, race, power, and society to examine what AI reveals about the systems that built it. Rather than treating bias as a technical glitch, this conversation asks what must be unlearned at the level of worldview, institution, data, design, and collective imagination. Facilitated by Christian “ZacaTechO” Ortiz, this dialogue explored AI through a decolonial lens asking necessary questions: Whose knowledge is extracted? Whose futures are optimized away? Whose bodies are surveilled? Whose intelligence is dismissed? And what can liberated knowledge make possible beyond colonial technology? This is not a conversation about making machines more ethical within the same old systems. It is an invitation to question the systems themselves, and to imagine intelligence beyond extraction, domination, and control.

Dr. Rod Berger talks with Dr. Stephen Zunes on activism, civil resistance, and Western Sahara storylines.  This conversation explores how Dr. Stephen Zunes' upbringing in a Christian pacifist, politically engaged household shaped his lifelong focus on human rights, international law, and nonviolent resistance. Host Dr. Rod Berger, editor at large at Fair Observer, and Zunes also discuss Western Sahara, Israel-Palestine, democracy, polarization, and why Zunes still believes large-scale civic action can change history. Guest Dr. Stephen Zunes — Professor of politics and director of Middle Eastern Studies at the University of San Francisco, speaking about his background, scholarship, activism, and views on civil resistance Key topics In this episode: Zunes traces his worldview to a Christian pacifist household shaped by civil rights activism, anti-Vietnam War protests, environmental concern, and early Palestinian solidarity. We discuss: How his parents' backgrounds—one from a Greek immigrant line and one from a conservative Southern family—led to an unusual but deeply consistent social justice ethic. Zunes shares: How growing up in Chapel Hill and reading the newspaper as a child helped make political curiosity and international affairs feel natural. In this episode: His decision to move from organizing into academia came from realizing he was better as an intellectual than a movement organizer. We discuss: Why Western Sahara became a central focus for him as a test case for international law, self-determination, and opposition to territorial conquest. Zunes shares: His view that Western Sahara and Palestine are two important examples of foreign belligerent occupation that are often treated very differently in public discourse. We discuss: How he sees support for Western Sahara as potentially strengthening the pro-Palestinian movement by centering international law rather than sectarian argument. Zunes shares: His experience debating John Bolton at the Oxford Union on whether military force is an effective way to promote democracy, and why he argues that civil society and nonviolent action are usually more effective. We discuss: Why the United States and Britain should examine their own support for authoritarian regimes before advocating military intervention abroad. Zunes shares: His optimism rooted in historical examples, including civil rights, Vietnam, South Africa, and East Timor, where sustained pressure changed policy. We discuss: The role of polarization, which he sees as dangerous but also potentially transformative, depending on how people shape it. Zunes shares: Why he remains hopeful about younger generations, whom he sees as more open to socialism, social democracy, and critiques of militarism. Timestamps 02:16 — Rod introduces the show and Stephen Zunes 03:37 — Zunes' academic background and family roots 04:20 — A Christian pacifist household shaped by civil rights and anti-war politics 07:16 — Parents' unusual pro-Palestinian stance in the Deep South 08:53 — Learning politics at the dinner table and from newspapers 11:26 — Chapel Hill, Oberlin, and becoming a political science scholar 13:35 — Why Western Sahara became a defining issue 14:34 — Civil rights, Namibia, East Timor, and the logic of solidarity 15:31 — Why Western Sahara matters for international law 16:55 — Comparing Western Sahara, Palestine, and U.

S. civic fragility and democratic decline 33:25 — Why authoritarian systems can also produce skepticism and resistance 35:20 — Polarization as a force that can produce reform or reaction 39:07 — Grassroots voter mobilization and the importance of turnout 40:12 — Final reflection on whether nonviolent struggle still wins 41:20 — Why Zunes remains optimistic about the long term 43:13 — Younger generations, social democracy, and anti-militarism 44:10 — Closing thoughts on the value of debate and informed disagreement TOP INSIGHTS Universal principles are stronger than issue-by-issue loyalty Judge every occupation, annexation, or intervention by the same standard: international law. A consistent, principle-based approach is harder to dismiss as selective outrage and creates stronger coalitions across conflicts. Overlooked issues can offer meaningful opportunities for advocacy Western Sahara's relative obscurity allowed focused expertise and advocacy to develop. Importance is not always reflected by the amount of public attention an issue receives. Nonviolent movements create sustainable political change Civil resistance is not merely symbolic. Organized citizens, durable networks, and sustained pressure can produce legitimacy and lasting policy change more effectively than military intervention. Polarization can lead to authoritarianism or reform Polarization is not inherently destructive. Its consequences depend on how social energy is organized and whether democratic institutions can channel conflict toward constructive change. Democracy depends on local participation Democratic decline often begins with disengagement from local institutions such as school boards, city councils, and community organizations. Participation is a form of democratic maintenance. Historical memory can produce realistic hope Optimism does not have to mean ignoring present challenges. Past movements—including civil rights, anti-war, anti-apartheid, and labor movements—show that organized pressure can change systems that once appeared permanent. Younger generations are questioning inherited political assumptions Younger people are increasingly willing to challenge conventional ideas about capitalism, militarism, socialism, and foreign policy. Their skepticism may represent a broader shift in political expectations.

For a Crowd-Free African Safari, Head for Tanzania's Southern Circuit

An African safari doesn't have to mean a traffic jam. On this episode of Unpacked, host Aislyn Greene travels to Tanzania's southern circuit—visiting two parks most first-time safari-ers never consider—and discovers what happens when you trade the famous Great Migration crossing for a dry riverbed with not another human being in sight. To get there, she consulted Elizabeth Gordon, co-founder of Extraordinary Journeys, who helped reframe what an African safari could be. What followed was eight days in Ruaha National Park and Nyerere National Park: a walking safari with a guide who reads the wind with a pouch of ash, a river full of hippos and crocodiles that Aislyn took to calling "danger soup," and a fly camp on a lake where a ranger stayed up all night speaking hippo so she didn't have to. Come back next week for a bonus episode about what happens when a lion leaves the park—and meets a herd of cattle. THIS WEEK'S GUESTS Elizabeth Gordon is the co-founder of Extraordinary Journeys, a bespoke travel company designing African safari itineraries—and trips throughout South America and Asia—for travelers who want more than the standard route. Born in Kenya to a mother who joined the Peace Corps, earned her pilot's license, and built a house on a game park outside Nairobi, Elizabeth grew up between Kenya and France, studied in Beijing, and managed safari camps in Namibia before launching the company with her mother. Pay Mbaryo is a walking guide and naturalist with Nomad Tanzania in Ruaha National Park. A farmer's son who grew up in the Gorongosa district, he has spent 15 years in the bush and navigates unmarked wilderness using what he calls a natural GPS. In a decade of guiding, he has never once had to use his rifle. Gerald is a guide with Nomad Tanzania in Nyerere National Park, in his fourth year on the Rufiji River. He can identify a hippo's path out of the water by sight and smell—and he was the one who handed Aislyn a hippo skull to explain exactly why you don't want to be in that path. IN THIS EPISODE Why Tanzania's Southern Circuit—specifically Ruaha National Park and Nyerere National Park—offers a better African safari experience for first-time visitors than the Great Migration crossing: fewer people, better guides, and wildlife that doesn't know you're there What a walking safari in Ruaha actually feels like: reading the wind with a pouch of ash, approaching a mother elephant and her calf without being detected, learning to make a toothbrush from a tree, and discovering the Small Five How Pay spent 15 years learning that birds, buffalo, and elephants are all sharing information with one another—and why walking safari means becoming part of that conversation rather than watching it from a Jeep The Rufiji River at Nyerere: a wide, curving expanse of "danger soup"—filled with hippos and crocodiles—and what an afternoon on the water teaches you about the elephant as a keystone species What fly camping looks like when Nomad's team digs a bathroom into the sand, rigs a hot shower, serves gin and tonics under the stars, and a ranger stays up all night so you can fall asleep to the sound of the hippo brass band CHAPTER MARKERS 00:00:00 Introduction: African Safari, But Different 00:04:00 Why the Southern Circuit 00:08:00 Arriving in Ruaha 00:12:00 Walking Safari With Pay 00:20:00 The Small Five and the Keystone Species 00:26:00 Nyerere and the Rufiji River 00:33:00 Danger Soup: Life on the Water 00:38:00 Fly Camping With Hippos LINKS & RESOURCES Extraordinary Journeys Nomad Tanzania Nomad Kigelia Camp, Ruaha Nomad Sand Rivers Camp, Nyerere Ruaha National Park, Tanzania Nyerere National Park, Tanzania View From Afar—Great Migration episode Stay connected Be sure to subscribe to the show and sign up for our podcast newsletter, Behind the Mic, where we share upcoming news and behind-the-scenes details of each episode.

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Thursday morning, the 27th of August, 2026, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.We start in 1 Corinthians 11:1. Paul says: ”Imitate me, just also as I imitate Christ.” Then we go to the Book of Ephesians 5:1: “Therefore be imitators of God as dear children.” Then the last one, Philippians 3:17: “Brethren, join in following my example, and note those who so walk, as you have us for a pattern.”Ooh, that's a tough one today, isn't it? We have got to be examples. Lead by example - follow me even as I follow Jesus. Don't tell people how to live. Rather, show them how to live. Dad, your children are watching all the time how you treat their mother, and this is very serious. If you just get out of the car and walk into the shop and mother has to run after you, that's disgraceful. It actually brings a tear to my eye. That is not what Christ did. Remember, Jesus was known as the One who washed feet. He washed the dirty feet of His disciples as an example. Your son, dad, will not do what you tell him. He will do exactly what you do. If you are a drunkard, he will become a drunkard, even though he hates himself for it, because he doesn't know any other way. We need to lead by example.On the aeroplane, coming back from a big event we had in Namibia many years ago, I was on the platform, it was a capacity crowd, and it was amazing. We got on the plane flying home and there was a rugby team on the same plane. These boys had obviously had a wonderful weekend, and they were all having a few beers and I was sitting towards the back of the plane and I noticed a young man who I think had been at the event. He was sitting in the aisle seat in the front, and he kept on looking at me, and I didn't take any more notice. The air hostess came up to me. She said, “Would you like to have a drink?” I said, “Yes, thank you. I will have a coke. She brought me a Coke, and as I popped that Coke open, I looked up, and there was this young man, and he had a smile on his face, and he gave me a thumbs up. Now folks, we need to lead by example. I was probably speaking about lifestyle on that platform.If I was sitting there putting the beers back and this young man is looking to me as an example, what would that have done to him? It might have destroyed his faith. We need to walk the talk. We need to do what Jesus said and not tell other people what to do and then do the opposite.Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day.Goodbye.

In 1999, a handful of people gathered at a dusty Namibian airfield to meet two men flying weight-shift microlights around the world. One of them was Mike Blyth. Watching from the crowd was a boy who had never left the country, whose family couldn't afford much flying, and who had no real concept of where these men had come from — only that whatever they were doing, he wanted to do it too.Twenty-five years later, JP Schulze has flown around the world himself, built the first Sling High Wing off the line — designed by the same Mike Blyth — and become one of the most distinctive filmmakers in aviation.This one took a while to make happen. We finally met at Oshkosh this year, and JP is candid about being a naturally shy person who ended up with a career in front of a camera.He grew up in Namibia with no art classes and no creative outlets, thinking in German and Afrikaans, teaching himself English from the Discovery Channel at eight years old. He was taking the controls of his dad's microlight at ten. He funded his first licence by free-diving for crayfish, selling snake venom, and restringing tennis rackets.The around-the-world trip nearly didn't happen twice. Sponsors walked after a Cirrus ditched near Hawaii and the CAPS pull ran on every news channel — nobody wanted their logo on a small plane over an ocean. So JP and Louis Cole self-funded it, and JP is honest about what that cost: the fourteen-hour legs, the multi-hour shouting match somewhere between Fiji and Kiribati, and the weight of being responsible for a non-pilot's life for the first time.In this episode:Meeting Mike Blyth in 1999 — and building his airplane twenty years laterGrowing up flying "sketchy" weight-shift trikes over the African bushWhy Southern Africa has a GA scene almost nobody expectsMoving to New Zealand at seventeen and rebuilding from scratch in a third languageMeeting Louis Cole on a sand dune and having his life change in a daySigning with Discovery, then watching the money disappearWhat flying around the world actually took — and why he'd do it againInsisting on being the first to build the Sling High Wing, then helping write the manualWhy he refuses to post weekly, and what that has cost himThe sunglasses he built because a $350 pair costs $10 to makeWhy print still matters, and what we both think is at stakeWe also recorded a second conversation about the around-the-world flight itself — that one is exclusive to the magazine, with the audio released free a year after publication.Happy Flying,JustinSupport JP - otavi.co best sunglasses for pilotsPilot to Pilot Magazine — Volume 003 is out now.

Namibia has commissioned what is being described as Africa’s first fully integrated green hydrogen facility at Walvis Bay, combining solar power, hydrogen production and battery storage. Siemens Sub-Saharan Africa CEO Sabine Dall’Omo discusses the significance of the project, the challenges facing the emerging hydrogen economy, and Namibia’s potential to become a major clean-energy hub. Presenter John Maytham is an actor and author-turned-talk radio veteran and seasoned journalist. His show serves a round-up of local and international news coupled with the latest in business, sport, traffic and weather. The host’s eclectic interests mean the program often surprises the audience with intriguing book reviews and inspiring interviews profiling artists.

John sits down with Mike Arnold (author of Bringing Back the Lions and Bringing Back the Wild, biologist, and host of the Bringing Back the Wild podcast) for a deep dive into one of the more specialized pursuits in African hunting: the Tiny Ten. Mike shares the full story of how his very first African animal — a Vaal Rhebok in the Great Karoo — launched a multi-country quest that eventually produced eleven of these pygmy antelope. He walks through the hunts for Vaal Rhebok, Bush Duiker, Klipspringer, Cape Grysbok, Steenbok, Damara Dik-Dik, Blue Duiker, Red Duiker, Suni, Oribi, and Red-Flanked Duiker across South Africa, Mozambique, Namibia, and Cameroon. They discuss the specialized habitats and tactics required, the surprisingly effective use of varmint calls on some species, the best cartridges for animals that can weigh under 20 pounds (from .22 Hornet to .375), the challenges of shot placement and taxidermy, SCI scoring realities, and why these little antelope are often more difficult and rewarding than many larger plains-game species. Mike also puts on his biologist hat to explain how so many tiny antelope have thrived in a predator-rich landscape, the heavy bushmeat pressure they face, and the conservation role of places like Zambezi Delta Safaris. Whether you've already taken a couple of the Tiny Ten or you're just curious about this specialized side of African hunting, this episode delivers both great stories and practical insight.

Quite often, foreign leaders travel to China without a clear strategy for turning high-level diplomacy into tangible economic gains. This was on display earlier this year when U.S. President Donald Trump's much-hyped summit yielded few actionable outcomes. Namibian President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah took a different approach during her visit to Beijing in July. She arrived with specific priorities, a clear understanding of Namibia's leverage, and a strong focus on investment, value addition, and job creation. Ovigwe Eguegu and Huiyi Chen, policy analysts at the international development consultancy Development Reimagined, argued in a column published in The Diplomat that Nandi-Ndaitwah's approach offers important lessons for other leaders, particularly in Africa, on how to turn high-level visits to China into meaningful outcomes. They join Eric and Geraud to discuss those lessons and what other African governments can learn from Namibia's approach.

Interview with Darrin Campbell, President & CEO of Namibia Critical Metals Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/namibia-critical-metals-tsxvnmi-japan-backed-path-to-dfs-in-q2-2027-9891Recording date: 13th August 2026Namibia Critical Metals (TSXV:NMI) has reached a pivotal moment in the development of its Lofdal Heavy Rare Earth Project in Namibia. In July 2026, the Japan Organization for Metals and Energy Security (JOGMEC) and Toyota Tsusho Corporation completed a C$23 million earn-in commitment, roughly 18 months ahead of the original March 2028 schedule, securing a combined 50% participating interest in the project. The two partners formed TJ Namibia Rare Earths Corporation (TJNREC) to hold that interest, and JOGMEC has separately committed up to C$47.668 million (approximately ¥5.5 billion) to capitalise the new entity, funding Lofdal through Definitive Feasibility Study completion and toward a Final Investment Decision.Critically, all project funding from this point forward is structured as non-interest-bearing, non-dilutive Pre-FID Capital Funding - a mechanism CEO Darrin Campbell described as a temporary free carry that removes near-term financing risk without forcing Namibia Critical Metals to make a dilution decision until FID itself. The company retains the option to participate at up to 45% ownership or dilute to a carried floor of 21%, with management signalling a preference to retain maximum exposure given the project's economics.The economics, laid out in a December 2025 PFS, show a 13-year mine life producing 2,000 tonnes of total rare earth oxide annually, including significant dysprosium, terbium and yttrium output. A base case using moderate pricing generates a $275 million after-tax NPV and 19% IRR on $348 million of capex; a divergent case reflecting the elevated non-Chinese pricing seen over the past 18 months delivers a $748 million after-tax NPV and 35% IRR. Campbell noted current market conditions increasingly resemble the divergent scenario.Technical work continues in parallel. A 13,000-metre, 83-hole drill programme launched in June 2026 is targeting a maiden resource at the Area 5 xenotime system, the project's first deep test hole at Area 4 to approximately 800 metres for underground mining studies, and infill drilling at Area 2B. SGS has been awarded pilot-scale flotation and hydrometallurgical testwork contracts aimed at producing separated - rather than mixed - light and heavy rare earth products, which Campbell said better matches offtaker demand. A DFS completion target of Q3 2027 is intended to lead into an FID shortly after.Despite this de-risking and the depth of sovereign-industrial backing, Campbell argues the market continues to price Lofdal as an early-stage exploration story, at roughly 0.15-0.2x price-to-NAV versus 0.4-0.8x for comparable PFS/DFS-stage peers. He attributes the gap to thin liquidity, minimal institutional coverage as the company has not needed to raise meaningful capital in six years due to JOGMEC funding, and market confusion over the earn-in's dilution mechanics. Final offtake pricing terms with the Japanese consortium remain under negotiation, representing a further catalyst to watch as the project approaches FID.View Namibia Critical Metals' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/namibia-critical-metals-incSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

What does it take to build a luxury tented lodge in the middle of the Okavango Delta? To engineer a fabric structure that withstands a category five cyclone on the Australian coast? To convince a Swiss banker to walk away from a 20-year career and move to Bali to manufacture tented villas? Or to take a chance on a stretch tent made from horse-riding trouser fabric on a film set in Namibia, and turn that into one of the most innovative tent architecture firms in the world? It takes the kind of people you're about to meet. This is Titans of Tents... a brand new series inside the Glamping Business Podcast... and this first episode is where it all begins. I'm Sarah Riley, and I've spent years watching this industry grow from a niche curiosity into a globally recognised asset class. But one conversation I've never heard - not once - is the one where the people who actually build the foundations of this industry sit down together and speak honestly about how they got here, what they've learned, and where they think it's all going. Until now. In this episode, I'm joined by four of the world's leading glamping structure founders: Brendan O'Molony of Tenthouse Structures in South Africa, Ueli Wick of Escape Nomade in Bali, Tom Butterfield of Eco Structures in Western Australia, and David Patrick Court of Bushtec Creations, operating across Africa and the Middle East. Between them, they have delivered tented structures in over 55 countries, worked with some of the world's most prestigious hospitality brands, and built their reputations in some of the most remote and challenging environments on earth. What makes this conversation different isn't just their collective experience... it's the combination of genuine competitive respect, deep friendship, and a shared mission to raise standards across the industry that brings them together. They are four founders with hard-won knowledge, strong opinions, and the kind of honesty that only comes from having actually done the work. In this first episode, we hear their origin stories, and they are not what you'd expect. We talk about whether glamping is truly a global industry or a collection of very different regional stories. We explore what COVID really did to the outdoor hospitality sector, why an AI-disrupted world might be the best thing that ever happened to tented structures, and what is still... even now... misunderstood about what these buildings can actually do. This is the conversation the industry has been waiting for. Welcome to episode one of The Titans of Tents.  ____________ Who are the Titans? Brendan O'Molony - Tenthouse Structures (South Africa / Singapore) Brendan founded Tenthouse Structures in 2010, and over the past 15 years it has evolved into one of the industry's most innovative full-service tent architecture firms, delivering luxury tented camps and lodges across Africa, the USA, the Middle East, Europe and Australia.

His personal mission is engineering superior wilderness fabric structures that are optimised to site... low-impact, high-comfort, and built for some of the world's most remote locations https://www.tenthousestructures.com/  Ueli Wick - Escape Nomade (Bali, Indonesia) A Swiss national who spent most of his professional life in private banking with UBS and Credit Suisse, Ueli made a dramatic career pivot and now leads Escape Nomade, designers and manufacturers of luxury tented villas based in Bali, with a mission to bring the "living without walls" lifestyle to a global audience. Under his leadership, Escape Nomade has delivered more than 450 luxury tented structures across 55 countries. Their product sits at the haute couture end of the market... large, semi-permanent, fully furnished tented villas used in resorts, wellness centres, and private residences worldwide https://escapenomade.com/  Tom Butterfield - Eco Structures (Western Australia) Tom has been driving product and concept at Eco Structures Australia since 2012, and has since completed over 85 glamping projects worldwide.
