Bryophytes, AKA mosses, liverworts, and hornworts, are ubiquitous components of ecosystems around the world yet they are all too often underappreciated. Luckily, people like Brittney Miller are doing everything in their power to change that. What started with immense frustration turned into a life-long love affair with all things bryophyte. Join us for a wonderful deep dive into the secret world of these tiny plants.

This episode dives deep into a dream many Francophiles share: owning a piece of Paris without the full-time commitment or price tag. In this episode, host Annie Sargent sits down with Marie Tartar, a fractional apartment owner in the Marais, to break down everything you need to know about this smart alternative to traditional real estate. If you've ever wondered how to enjoy Paris like a local—with your own keys, favorite café, and neighborhood routines—this conversation is packed with practical insights. Listen to this episode ad-free Marie shares her firsthand experience owning a share of a one-bedroom apartment in the heart of the Marais. She explains how fractional ownership works: instead of buying an entire property, you purchase a share with a small group of owners, typically 12 to 13 people. Each owner gets four weeks a year—two fixed and two floating—so you always know when your next Parisian getaway is on the calendar. Unlike timeshares, you're a deeded owner, which means you can sell your share, pass it on, or even trade weeks with other owners. Annie and Marie discuss the costs, which range from €100,000 to €800,000 depending on the size and location, plus annual dues that cover maintenance, housekeeping, and property management. For Marie, it's been a game-changer, offering the freedom of a second home without the hassle of upkeep or dealing with a French syndic. The conversation covers the perks of fractional ownership, like having a concierge on call for anything from a broken kettle to restaurant recommendations. Marie's apartment comes with a storage bin in the basement for personal items, and a WhatsApp group keeps owners connected for sharing tips on local exhibitions and hidden gems. Annie highlights the importance of choosing a well-managed property, where a strong developer handles conflicts and logistics, so you can focus on enjoying your stay. They also talk about the lifestyle—imagine spending your days exploring the Marais, visiting quirky museums like the Musée de la Chasse et de la Nature, and strolling to the Left Bank for movies and meals. If you love Paris but don't want the responsibility of full ownership, fractional apartments offer a flexible, lower-stress way to have a pied-à-terre in the city. Marie and Annie discuss the best neighborhoods for fractional ownership, how to find opportunities, and what to watch out for when reviewing contracts. Whether you're a frequent visitor or just dreaming of longer stays, this episode reveals how fractional ownership can make Paris feel like home. Ready to turn your Parisian dreams into reality?

Why did the dinosaurs go extinct? Many of you have learned about the meteorite that scientists say hit the earth 66 million years ago and killed off many dinosaur species. But some dinosaurs survived, and the birds you see flying around today are their direct descendants! In this episode we trace the connection between modern birds and prehistoric dinosaurs. Other questions include: Were any dinosaurs mammals? How did bird dinosaurs survive? Are crocodiles related to dinosaurs? Did dinosaurs have feathers? How do we know? Did all dinosaurs lay eggs? Our guest is Dr. Emily Bamforth, curator of the Philip J. Currie Dinosaur Museum in Alberta, Canada.Download our learning guides: PDF | Google Slide | Transcript
In today's episode I sit down with developmental psychologist Dr. Jay Belsky to explore a question so many parents wrestle with: is temperament destiny? We talk about why children differ in how deeply they're shaped by their environments, what “developmental plasticity” really means, and why the same parenting can land so differently depending on the child. We discuss the difference between sensitivity and susceptibility, the limits of attachment research, and why focusing only on long-term outcomes can distract us from what matters in the here and now.I WROTE MY FIRST BOOK!

A Church as Big as the Cosmos! In this episode, we enter into Lent with a reading from C.S. Lewis' The Discarded Image. We discuss the medieval understanding of life, the universe, and everything— how it can help the churches today deepen their "vision" of how God orders the universe, the church, and the human being. We converse about the Grail legend, how God's Word encounters and changes people, being lost in the Garden, how Christ ministers through others, and being annoyed by death. This and much, much more on this week's episode of Banned Books.

For much of our lives, performance is measured in speed, strength, and output. As we get older, the equation changes. On this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, I sit down with Sir David Beckham and Dr. Dawn Mussallem to explore what elite sport, stage IV cancer, and heart transplantation can teach us about prevention—and what it really takes to sustain health over time. Watch the full conversation on YouTube or listen wherever you get your podcasts. Together, we explore: • Why your health trajectory is more changeable than you've been taught—especially after 40 • How sleep, stress, and metabolic health quietly shape your long-term disease risk • Which daily habits give you the biggest return on investment over decades • How to build resilience now so your body supports you later The real measure of health isn't what you can achieve in your 20s or 30s. It's the resilience you build so your body supports you for decades to come.

On today's show: Dennis continues to explore the complexities of pornography. He delves into the arguments against it, including its addictive nature, the idea that it's a substitute for real love, and the notion that it's inherently misogynistic. Dennis also discusses the concept of modesty, suggesting that women are not naturally inclined to expose themselves, and that something must have led them to pose for Playboy or other magazines. He touches on the topic of heterophobia, highlighting the double standard in society's treatment of male and female sexuality.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

One of the most iconic and beloved birds of the North American west is the Clark's Nutcracker, the highlight of anyone's trip to the high country. It will come as no surprise to anyone that the bird's relationship to the ecosystem goes beyond begging for trail mix from hikers, a fascinating symbiosis that was recently the topic of Glacier National Park's Headwaters podcast, whose host, Peri Sasnett, joins us to talk nutcrackers and conservation. This interview previously ran in August 2022. Also, Nate is keynoting at the Black Belt Birding Festival this summer!

The Language of Play - Kids that Listen, Speech Therapy, Language Development, Early Intervention
Hey Friends~ This episode is part 2 of the series “When Communication is Hard.” Today we're talking about childhood apraxia of speech and other motor speech disorders—what they are, and why speech can be so effort-filled for some kids. If your child knows what they want to say but can't consistently get the words out, this episode will help you understand what's really going on beneath the surface. We'll also talk about why “just practice” often backfires and what kinds of support actually help at home. I am glad you are here, your child will be, too! Always cheering you on!

The era of endless healing is over. Are you an awakened, spiritual straight-A-student, and stuck in a never ending spiral of self-doubt and healing? In this inaugural episode of We Are Standing on the Edge (formerly The Psychedelic Integration Podcast), we dive into why “doing the work” (modalities, breathwork, meditation, journaling, reflecting, seeking insight, and even plant medicine) often doesn't move the needle.I share the revelation that much of our healing comes from the belief that we are broken, and why that belief keeps us trapped in endless mental loops and overwhelm. You'll hear acknowledgment of the paradox of our current human experience... where suffering, solving, and disconnection from Nature keep us stuck. And why the true path is coming into present relationship with what's here to grow you.Resonance Retreats, 1: 1 Coaching, + Community Membership: https://sinclairfleetwood.com/work-with-me

Farnham – Professor of Apologetics, Lancaster Bible College-David Saxon – Professor of Church History, Maranatha Baptist UniversityTogether, they explore:✔️ What a worldview is—and why everyone has one✔️ Why logic is foundational for defending the Christian faith ✔️ The difference between factual mistakes and logical fallacies ✔️ Common fallacies like: Ad Hominem Straw Man Appeal to Authority Appeal to Pity Genetic Fallacy Red Herring Self-Referential Incoherence✔️ How to construct sound deductive and inductive arguments✔️ Why truth corresponds to reality ✔️ How Christians can argue graciously, clearly, and persuasivelyIn a world shaped by expressive individualism, emotional reasoning, and intellectual shortcuts, this conversation equips believers to think critically and biblically. As C.S. Lewis famously emphasized, Christianity is not something we would have invented—it confronts us with reality.

This is quite a long talk, on a very fascinating topic, delivered by Acharya das in the Philippines. It is a comprehensive look into the question of spiritual identity, God-realization, and the resultant experience of the awakening of transcendental and ecstatic love for God which naturally arises from that.Acharya das outlines three essential questions for self-realization: What is my essence? (spiritual being), What is my position? (subservient part and parcel of God, not the center of everything), and What is my natural function? (to love and serve). He described how material consciousness leads people to try becoming "mini-gods," placing themselves at the center of “their” universe, which ultimately results in emptiness and unhappiness. Regarding God-realization, he explained three aspects of God's manifestation: Brahman (impersonal spiritual energy), Paramatma (the expansion of God within the heart of all beings), and Bhagavan (the personal form of God in a spiritual realm). The speaker emphasized that love is an exchange between persons and that every soul has an eternal and intimate connection with God who is their true soulmate. He next explains that pure love for God already exists within everyone's heart and doesn't need to be acquired from external sources. Through the process of bhakti-yoga (devotional practice), particularly chanting God's holy names, this dormant love naturally awakens as the heart becomes purified.Some of the verses he quoted or which support this topic:God - He is the eternal among all eternal entities, and the chief conscious being among all conscious beings. Among the many living entities, He is the chief, who fulfills their desires. Śvetāsvatara Upaniṣad 6.13 & Kaṭha Upaniṣad 2.2.13The same jīva (spirit-soul) is eternal and is for eternity and without a beginning joined to the Supreme Lord by the tie of an eternal kinship. He is transcendental spiritual potency. - Śrī Brahma-saṁhitā 5.21Learned transcendentalists who know the Absolute Truth call this nondual substance Brahman, Paramātmā or Bhagavān. ‐ Bhāgavata Purāṇa 1.2.11“Pure love for Kṛṣṇa is eternally established in the hearts of the living entities. It is not something to be gained from another source. When the heart is purified by hearing and chanting, this love naturally awakens. — Śrī Caitanya-caritāmṛta, Madhya-līlā 22.107“By chanting the holy name of the Lord, one dissolves his entanglement in material activities. After this, one becomes very attracted to Krishna, and thus dormant love for Krishna is awakened.” — Śrī Caitanya-caritāmṛta, Madhya-līlā 15.109CHAPTERS00:01:13 Introduction to Soul vs. Body Identity 00:05:47The Reality of Death and Eternal Nature of the Soul 00:09:33 The Vedic Teaching on Individual Soul and Supreme Soul 00:14:07 Self-Realization: Understanding Essence, Position, and Function 00:21:34 The Problem of Material Consciousness and Mini-God Mentality 00:27:40 Natural Function: The Joy of Service and Giving 00:34:18 Three Aspects of God: Brahman, Paramatma, and Bhagavan 00:41:22 The Eternal Relationship and Two Birds Analogy 00:51:39 The Supreme Teaching of Love and Common Misconceptions 00:55:05 The Nature of Love and Three Aspects of God Continued 00:56:52 The Process of Awakening Dormant Love 01:01:10 Sadhana Bhakti: The Practice of Devotional Service 01:05:12 Meditation as Spiritual Immersion, Not Mental Activity 01:23:29 Kirtan

Bioneers: Revolution From the Heart of Nature | Bioneers Radio Series
The influences of Africans and Black Americans on food and agriculture is rooted in ancestral African knowledge and traditions of shared labor, worker co-ops and botanical polycultures. In this episode, we hear from Karen Washington and Bryant Terry on how Black Food culture is weaving the threads of a rich African agricultural heritage with the liberation of economics from an extractive corporate food oligarchy. The results can be health, conviviality, community wealth, and the power of self-determination. Featuring Karen Washington, co-owner/farmer of Rise & Root Farm, has been a legendary activist in the community gardening movement since 1985. Renowned for turning empty Bronx lots into verdant spaces, Karen is: a former President of the NYC Community Garden Coalition; a board member of: the NY Botanical Gardens, Why Hunger, and NYC Farm School; a co-founder of Black Urban Growers (BUGS); and a pioneering force in establishing urban farmers' markets. Bryant Terry is the Chef-in-Residence of MOAD, the Museum of the African Diaspora in San Francisco, and an award-winning author of a number of books that reimagine soul food and African cuisine within a vegan context. His latest book is Black Food: Stories, Art and Recipes from Across the African Diaspora.

What happens when the ocean turns heavy, control disappears, and the margin for error vanishes?In this powerful ALLSMITH conversation, Bryce sits down with Jamie Mitchell, widely regarded as one of the greatest big-wave surfers and ocean endurance athletes of all time and a 10-time Molokai to Oahu champion.Jamie has spent decades in environments where fear is real, preparation is survival, and ego has consequences. Those experiences forged a mindset rooted in humility, discipline, and earned calm. Today, that same mindset shapes his approach to fatherhood, leadership, performance, and life beyond sport.Together, Bryce and Jamie explore identity under pressure, confidence you cannot fake, and why nature remains the most honest teacher of character and responsibility.This episode is about more than surfing.It is about who you become when conditions turn against you.⸻Support ALLSMITHIf this conversation resonates and you want to live these principles:Join ALLSMITH CoachingPersonalized fitness, mindset, and lifestyle design rooted in peak expression and intentional livingExperience ALLSMITH EventsSauna, cold, movement, and community gatherings that build resilience and connectionPartner with ALLSMITHBrand collaborations, experiences, and storytelling aligned with performance, health, and cultureExplore ALLSMITHwww.allsmith.coInstagram: @allsmithco@therealbrycesmith @jamie_mitchoSubscribe to the ALLSMITH Podcast on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple.Share this episode with someone navigating adversity.Leave a review to help more people discover the show.Timestamps00:00 – Who do you become when conditions turn against you02:12 – Jamie's path into big-wave surfing and endurance paddling06:41 – The Molokai channel and real fear12:05 – Calm is earned, not found18:32 – What heavy water reveals about identity24:47 – Fatherhood reshapes courage31:18 – Confidence you cannot fake38:03 – Leadership in unpredictable environments44:08 – Why nature removes ego50:27 – Comfort culture and avoidance of hardship57:42 – Sustainable performance and recovery1:03:11 – Meaning beyond achievement1:08:46 – Who you are when control disappears1:12:28 – Final reflections⸻QuotesCalm is not found.

What if the key to "getting" more in life isn't about trying harder—but about giving more freely? In this episode, we explore the the Law of Circulation and how it shapes everything from our relationships, finances, and even to our overall sense of abundance. Through insights from both science and spirituality, we look at how nature itself models this truth—nothing thrives by holding on, but by allowing energy to move. When we consciously choose to give—whether it's love, attention, generosity, or presence—we create space for something new to flow back into our lives.We also talk about how aligning with these universal laws can transform not just what we experience externally, but who we become internally. How might your life shift if you focused more on what you can contribute rather than what you can get? And what would happen if giving became less about obligation and more about expression? Join us for a heartfelt and practical conversation that invites us to step into a deeper level of abundance, fulfillment, and conscious living—by simply starting with what we already have to give.Chapters00:00 New Beginnings and Updates02:53 The Law of Circulation: Giving to Receive05:47 Nature's Examples of Giving and Receiving08:41 The Importance of Alignment with Universal Laws12:04 Concrete Examples of Giving in Life14:56 Financial Giving and Spiritual Nourishment17:51 Transformative Stories of Giving and Receiving20:47 Recommended Resource: The Go-Giver23:43 Closing Thoughts and Future Directions
Meet Jeremy Hill, Co-Founder and CEO of Arcana — a next generation nature resort complete with seasonally immersive science-based experiences that help guests feel nature's true restorative powers. In this return episode, Jeremy shares what's changed (and what hasn't), plus Arcana's biggest leap yet: a newly acquired 56-acre property that gives the brand the zoning, septic capacity, and infrastructure required to scale — without diluting the Arcana promise. In this conversation, Jeremy and I discuss: How Arcana performed in the real world after launch (and why the early guests helped propel the waitlist) What the team learned from the pilot site — from cabin entrances and guest flow to privacy, operability, and experience design The truth about “tiny cabins” and how Arcana thinks about unit size, outdoor space, and central amenities What Jeremy's acquisition checklist looks like (proximity to a major city, the right zoning, and why septic is everything) How Arcana is repositioning an existing, cash-flowing resort with seven cottages and two houses into an Arcana-level experience Brand strategy: how to expand into new sites while still honoring the flagship brand promise (and when a sub-brand might make sense) How Jeremy is weighing construction loan options (traditional bank vs private lender) and the realities of taking on debt in Canada The longer-term vision: Arcana across North America, what an exit could look like, and why consistency is the superpower in experiential hospitality Arcana is targeting a summer 2027 opening for the fully repositioned property.

As we crest the wave of the Great Transformation, we have choices: we can crash into chaos and extinction - or we can step into our birthright as fully conscious nodes in the Web of Life, offering the astonishing creativity of humanity in service to life. We've said this on the podcast often, but it's not often that we speak with someone whose entire life is given to helping people step into our birthright, to opening the doors of what we might call Nature Connection, but is so much deeper than this - so that anyone, of any age or circumstance can step forward into whatever it is that our birthright becomes in the twenty-first century. Our guest this week does just this. I've known of Jon Young for decades, heard of his 8 Shields practice and have friends who have trained in his Art of Mentoring, but it was only this last September that we met in person and I was struck by the deep inner stillness he brings to everything he does, the sense that his awareness stretches out across space and through time and he's listening to layers upon layers of meaning. Jon Young is a deep nature-people-self connection researcher, mentor, naturalist, wildlife tracker, author, consultant, and storyteller. Mentored by his grandmothers, Tom Brown, Jr., and a host of elders and experts, he has spent over 40 years leading the field of nature-based community building. His work explores the impact of nature on mentoring, human intelligence, spirituality, well-being, and development, influencing tens of thousands worldwide. He is the author and co-author of seminal works such as What the Robin Knows and Coyote's Guide to Connecting to Nature, and has appeared in documentaries including The Animal Communicator. In 2016, he received the Champion of Environmental Education Award for his innovative and globally impactful contributions to the nature connection movement.So, with all of this as our baseline, it was an honour and a delight to dive deep with Jon into the history and lineages of his learning, of his views of where we are now, and of how we can best navigate this moment of collapse and renewal. https://www.livingconnection1st.net/https://www.jonyoung.orghttps://www.livingconnection1st.net/pages/resourcesJon's TEDx TalkThe Animal CommunicatorSign up for the Living Connection 1st newsletterPaul Hawken's Blessed UnrestKarl Direske's site https://wildernessfusion.com/About Accidental Gods - What we offer.

In this episode, Anita sits down with Sasha Chadwick (creator of Hive Mind) for a grounded, yet mystical, conversation on bee venom medicine, the terrain model and what it means to rebuild trust in the body's intelligence.Sasha shares her extraordinary entry into beekeeping (including a swarm landing on her doorstep), her personal healing journey through allergy, anaphylaxis and “purging" - and her evolving view of venom administration as a form of environmental exposure and recalibration.Together, they explore how the body interprets threat, how symptoms can be communication and why the hive itself is an archetype for community, contraction/expansion and renewal.This episode is a deep dive into sovereignty, nature's patterns and the medicine of relationship - with striking parallels to birth and initiation at times!This episode is a conversation exploring philosophy, lived experience and ancestral frameworks around nature and health.

It's the middle of award season, and Ryan Coogler's ode to the Black music canon Sinners has emerged as the Oscars frontrunner and the most nominated film in Academy Awards history. The love the movie has for the Delta blues is front and center, and begs the question: will the movie's legacy help bring the blues back into popular culture? There's already been a precedent for films reviving dead genres – think The Sting and its ragtime score, or O Brother Where Art Thou's relationship to bluegrass – and on this episode of Switched On Pop, Reanna and Nate talk with Vulture writer Fran Hoepfner about the times in which movie soundtracks have shifted the musical culture.

This podcast episode explores various strategies for maximizing hunting properties through effective land management, habitat improvement, and sustainable practices. The conversation delves into the importance of evaluating landscapes, managing water resources, and integrating wildlife support systems. The guest, Ben Falk, shares insights on pond design, the role of animals in fertility, and the benefits of perennial crops, emphasizing a holistic approach to land stewardship. In this conversation, the speakers delve into various aspects of sustainable land management, focusing on tree management, the use of herbicides, the dynamics of invasive species, and the human impact on ecosystems. Jon Teater and Ben discuss the importance of working with nature rather than against it, emphasizing the long-term benefits of planting trees and fostering biodiversity. The conversation also touches on the mindset shifts necessary for effective land stewardship and the legacy that current practices can leave for future generations. takeaways Start your design with soil type and regional land use. Evaluate your property at a finer level for better management. Animal enrichment creates healthier wildlife environments. Water management is crucial for supporting life and habitats. Ponds provide multiple benefits, including recreation and wildlife support. Integrate trees and perennial crops for sustainable growth. Cows can enhance soil fertility through their natural behaviors. Thinning trees can promote better growth and health. Planting diverse species can create resilient ecosystems. Managing water resources can lead to new springs and groundwater recharge. Hardwoods can reset and manage tree populations effectively. Plums can be toxic to cattle, necessitating careful management. Nature's systems are inherently balanced and not making mistakes. Herbicides are often unnecessary; plants can manage themselves. Invasive species can be beneficial and should be understood, not eradicated. We are part of nature and can positively influence ecosystems. Planting trees is a long-term investment in the future. The act of planting trees can shift one's perspective on nature. Human impact on landscapes can create lasting legacies. Digital hygiene is important for health in a tech-driven world.

On this special episode of The Nikki & Brie Show, Brie sits down with environmentalist, author, and activist Leah Thomas (aka @greengirlleah) for a heartfelt conversation about caring for the planet in a way that centers people. What first drew Brie to Leah was her soft, joyful approach to sustainability; educating without shame and action rooted in love. Together, they explore how environmentalism isn't just about trees and carbon footprints, but about clean water, safe communities, and making sure everyone has access to a healthy place to live.Leah shares how her journey began with a love for animals and evolved into a powerful mission of intersectional environmentalism and the belief that we can't protect the planet without also protecting marginalized communities. The two dive into climate anxiety, sustainable fashion, crafting with kids, and how small, realistic steps at home can create meaningful change. It's honest, grounding, and deeply inspiring.This episode is a reminder that we are not separate from nature, we are part of it. Healing the Earth starts with how we treat each other, our neighborhoods, and ourselves.
